Reflections on a Thangka painting portraying stages according to Mahamudra Practice Hello everyone, In our gathering yesterday at MoM's Centering Prayer group, we spent some time gazing upon, meditating and praying with icons. I sensed a deepening and connection in this practice with most members there. One new member who hadn't centered before (we did have a centering prayer sit) discussed some difficulty in centering as one works with formlessness, esp. how to handled busy mind and thoughts/questions arising during prayer. We discussed the Buddhist notion of the 'monkey mind.' A part of that "monkey mind" teaching comes from a Buddhist Mahamudra Thangka (like an icon) from the East. Catherine, who was in attendance yesterday, requested the link the youtube video which describes successive paths to enlightens and inner unity..... Ronald Mendyke Here is the link.

About Us

|||||||||||||||
Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all darkness - Desmond Tutu. Follow it. | An inclusive, Vatican II Eucharistic community of faithful Catholics who believe: | |
| - | that all are welcome; |
| - | that no one is excluded from the Eucharistic table for any reason, because no one is ever excluded from God's love |
| - | that living according to an informed conscience is every Catholic's responsibility and right |
| - | that transparency and equality, inclusiveness and hospitality are the foundation of a worshiping community |
| - | that loving service and outreach to others is how we "live Jesus" |
| - | that the royal priesthood of the baptized must be recognized, celebrated and the basis for a discipleship of equals. |
The Vatican II Council vision of Church is a communion of the faithful who live out the religious liberty so treasured by the leaders of the Council to be God's people, faithful, sacramental and dedicated to service. We are a gathering of the People of God where The Gospel announces and proclaims the freedom of the sons and daughters of God...it scrupulously respects the dignity of conscience and its freedom of choice, it never ceases to encourage the employment of human talent in the service of God and humankind, and ... it comments everyone to the charity of all."

All Are Welcome
by Marty Haugen
Let us build a house where love can dwell and all can safely live,
A place where saints and children tell how hearts learn to forgive.
Built of hopes and dreams and visions, rock of faith and vault of grace;
Here the love of Christ shall end divisions.
All are welcome, all are welcome, all are welcome in this place.
Let us build a house where prophets speak, and words are strong and true,
Where all God's children dare to seek to dream God's reign anew.
Here the cross shall stand as witness and a symbol of God's grace;
Here as one we claim the faith of Jesus.
All are welcome, all are welcome, all are welcome in this place.
Let us build a house where love is found in water, wine and wheat,
A banquet hall on holy ground, where peace and justice meet.
Here the love of God, through Jesus, is revealed in time and space;
As we share in Christ the feast that frees us.
All are welcome, all are welcome, all are welcome in this place.
