Should we expect “results” from meditation?’ We wouldn’t meditate without some kind of expectation but there’s the danger of turning meditation into a way of getting what we want (or think we want). Rowan will explore what sort of transformation we look for in and through meditation, and then think about how to find the balance between the risk of low expectations and the risk of ‘functionalising’ meditation to serve our own purposes.
Join us on the second online talk of the Bonnevaux Speaker Series with Rowan Williams on 9th February. More info and registration here: bonnevauxwccm.org/updates/all...
