Enter a Monastery Without Walls Christian Meditation introduces an ancient practice to a contemporary audience. James Finley, a former monk and student of Thomas Merton, presents the fundamentals of both understanding and practicing Christian meditation. He provides simple, helpful instructions, as well as explaining the deeper connection with the divine that meditation can bring. Above all, he makes clear that the aim of meditation is to allow us to experience divine contemplation -- the presence of God.
James Finley, PhD, is a contemplative teacher, former Trappist monk, psychotherapist, and widely respected author of Merton's Palace of Nowhere, a classic in contemporary Christian mysticism. He studied under Thomas Merton at the Abbey of Gethsemani and later earned his doctorate from Fuller Seminary, where his dissertation explored the intersection of empirical science and mystical experience. For many years he practiced as a psychotherapist specializing in trauma survivors, learning in real time how contemplative awareness and psychological insight can work together in the slow work of restoration and healing.
