Thomas Keating’s many years of teaching and practice into nine essential areas for study, reflection and spiritual growth for our time. The interviewer, Betty Sue Flowers, draws out of Fr. Thomas the importance of silence and contemplative practice as a means of opening the mind and heart and one’s whole being to God, or the Ultimate Reality.
Ms. Flowers is the author of numerous books and articles, including having edited the book and acted as a consultant to the 1988 documentary, "The Power of Myth," with Joseph Campbell and Bill Moyers.
