Spirit in the Cave of the Heart

In this evening talk Cyprian Consiglio, a Benedictine monk of the Camaldolese Congregation, will explore the call to contemplation and mystical depth which is found in every spiritual tradition.  This call is meant for every person, and not just  professional religious. Cyprian will draw on the life and inspiration of two Christian mystics of the 20th century, Bede Griffiths and Henri le Saux (Abhishiktananda), who integrated the spirituality of the East - notably Hinduism and Buddhism--with the wisdom of Eastern and Western Christianity.

The weekend will open participants to the possibility of spiritual transformation through meditation, music and chanting, sacred reading, teaching, prayer and discussion.  As a teacher and a musician Cyprian has the gift of leading people to an understanding of their whole person - spirit, soul and body.
