Why not become fire?


Abba Lot went to see Abba Joseph and said to him, "Abba, as far as I can I say my little office, I fast a little, I pray and meditate, I live in peace, and as far as I can I purify my thoughts.  What else can I do?"

The old man stood up and stretched his hands toward Heaven.  His fingers became like ten lamps of fire, and he said to him, "If you will, you can become all flame."

Thomasine Contemplation - Silence and the Prophetic Voice

Center for Remembering and Sharing

It is from silence that the Pleroma emerged, and it is in silence that the Aeon Sophia speaks to us and through us.

Join us for the practice of Thomasine Contemplation, where we'll begin to enter into the place of silence where revelation, inspiration, and restoration occurs.

This practice begins with meditation and contemplative reading. All are welcome.
