Petit traité de la prière silencieuse

It is difficult to ignore the worries of everyday life and offer oneself a moment of silence and contemplation. This book, written by a Dominican author, invites you to discover the benefits of silent prayer. Born of a once widespread Christian tradition, this spiritual practice is available to all and enables us to refocus on what is essential. In this short treatise, Jean-Marie Gueullette answers practical questions concerning silent prayer: What does is consist of? What are the different postures to adopt in this practice? Breathing. How much time to devote to it? What differentiates it from other forms of prayer? Furthermore he shows us that silent prayer, by enabling us to access our inner temple and enter into silence, can change our lives. TABLE OF CONTENTS A simple form of prayer Nothing other than an act of faith An effective form of prayer?
