Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to offer CMTF students and others interested in meditation a glimpse of the possibilities of meditation exercises (for non-Christians) and the opportunity to deepen their life of faith and their spiritual experience with inner prayer or the Serenity Prayer (for Christians and those interested). Students will be introduced to the religious and philosophical foundations of meditation offered by Eastern (Hindu, Buddhist, etc.) traditions. They will understand the difference between Christian and non-Christian meditation, object and non-object meditation, become familiar with the differences in understanding different concepts of meditation, learn the practice that has been shaped over the centuries in the Christian tradition, and become familiar with important texts by Christian authors on inner prayer, the Serenity Prayer, contemplation, etc.
Students will be able to use the acquired theoretical knowledge in their personal spiritual lives
