Oneness in Luminous Presence Five-day Silent Retreat, 7-11 June 2021 Dr Kerrie Hide, Catherine Hefferan rsm and Robyn Fitzgerald In an atmosphere of prayerful silence, we will withdraw into the depths of our heart to create a communion consciousness in the noosphere. Together, we will ponder the contemplative seeing from oneness in Luminous Presence. In daily teachings offered by Dr Kerrie Hide, we will focus on the oneing of the Luminous Energies of love. We will draw on a number of mystics, including Mechthild of Magdeburg, Hadewijch of Brabant, The Cloud of Unknowing, Swami Abhishiktananda and Beatrice Bruteau. Ever attentive to the stirrings of the Holy Spirit enflaming our hearts, we will draw out implications for creations evolutionary flow into Oneness in Love. This retreat is offered online, with meditation and teachings offered each morning between 9.30 - 11.00am. In these teachings, Kerrie explores the original mystical texts within their respective contexts, and develops ways of prayer that are an expression of this wisdom. These teachings support the mystical path to oneness in the energies of love in the Trinity in contemplation. Spiritual direction will be available every day. Cost: Contact:

To lead in and out of our sitting together, we draw briefly from a variety of texts including Rilke’s love poems to God; the writings on silence and stillness of John Main, and of Martin Laird; the translations of the Psalms of Nan C Merrill; the Celtic blessings of John P Newell; the meditations for the restless soul of Meister Eckhart; the poetry of Mark Burrows, and of Christine Valters Paintner. Our spiritual texts and songs may also reflect the call to ecological conversion, and draw on the writings of Thomas Berry and Brian Swimme and the new story linking science and spirituality.
