“The time of business does not with me differ from the time of prayer; and in the noise and clatter of my kitchen, while several persons are at the same time calling for different things, I possess GOD in as great tranquility as if I were upon my knees at the blessed sacrament.”

Catholic monk, Brother Lawrence, “The Practice of the Presence of God”.

I miss the monks, but not so much the nuns… as when the monks left, the light left with them, but I’ve finally found it now, my own light… it took an f’ing long while, but I understand the teaching now. They were amazing… amazingly good, and kind, and full of love, and very observant.

A revelation? …the Book of Revelations? A’ha!

…just like many meditate for hours per day, many pray for hours per day… it is not an uncommon endeavour in the worlds of Catholicism (praying) and Eastern practices (meditating)… I’ve done both.

Why is the Book of Revelations so eerie… there’s a specific page and paragraph that is more-so than the entirety of the book.

The Book of Revelation, the last book of the Bible, has fascinated and puzzled Christians for centuries. With its vivid imagery of disaster and suffering - the Battle of Armageddon, the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, the hideous Beast whose number is 666 - many have seen it as a map to the end of the world.
