John Main Essential Writings

John Main (1926-1982), an English Benedictine monk, pioneered the practice of Christian meditation. His genius was to recover a way into the contemplative experience for ordinary people within the Christian tradition. Through books and retreats he promoted the practice of meditation as a way for modern people to develop a deeper spirituallife. Hailed by Bede Griffiths as the "most important spiritual guide in the church today," his work inspired the foundation of the World Community for Christian Meditation and a network of hundreds of meditation groups around the world Laurence Freeman, OSB is the founder and spiritual guide of the World Community for Christian MeditationFreeman, Laurence is the author of 'John Main Essential Writings' with ISBN 9781570754159 and ISBN 1570754152.
