FROM THE HEART
    Sometime in the early 70's I was teaching young children and it was a
    particularly difficult year.  I felt I was at the end of my rope.  TM  was all
    the rage then - but it cost money, my husband was in grad school  and we
    were poor.  I knew the principle was to pick a mantra and repeat  it.  I sat
    down, closed my eyes and began to say whatever word I had  picked as a
    mantra.  In no time prayer welled up from within me!  Which  was a total
    surprise, as I had gotten away from a spiritual life.

    After that experience I found my way to Mt. Savior Monastery near where
    we were living and began to read and study spirituality - and went
    there often for Mass.

    Sometime in 1978 or 79 John Main came to Mt. Savior and described his
    method of Christian Meditation.  And we were hooked!  

    But the truth is God taught me meditation first.  John Main's method
    simply filled in the blanks.

    And this is a true story.
