Vocal And Contemplative Prayer

Altın Yaprak
Imagine a great classical archway
that rises on two sides
and meets at the center
in the keystone at the apex of the arch.
The left side represents vocal prayer,
the right side contemplative prayer
that begins with meditation.
In a balanced spiritual life
both grow and rise to perfection
simultaneously meeting
in the keystone which is God.
Both are essential in an
authentic life of prayer,
as can be seen in the life
of Christ and all the saints
in all religions which sought
contemplation and mystical union.
