________________________________
Trappist monk Thomas Merton was the channel through which the Spirit restored contemplative prayer to the Church in our times. This essential practice and the alternative consciousness it fosters had fallen away over the centuries. Merton rediscovered it in the silence and discipline of life at Gethsemane, the Cistercian Abbey in the hills of Kentucky. Others have since nurtured its growth among Christians of all denominations.
"s I complete this image on the 100th anniversary of Thomas Merton's birth, I am filled with gratitude for his life. I read his autobiography The Seven Storey Mountain as a precocious eighth grader. Though surely not understanding the depths of his writing, nonetheless this and his other books strongly influenced my spiritual journey."
