What Children Say About the Fruits of Meditation

A talk given by Dr Noel Keating at an international conference in Trinity College, Dublin, in September 2017, which celebrated the legacy of John Main OSB, whose teaching on contemplative prayer inaugurated a global community and movement. The conference addressed the significance of his insights on contemplation and prayer for today. “In the experience of meditation we come to know ourselves as true, as real, not ourselves as acting a role, not ourselves fulfilling other people’s expectations of us, but the experience of being who we are” (John Main).
