A Sacred Meditation: Opening to the Sacred in Stillness and Reflection

What if every moment held a lesson, and every experience was a teacher? This week’s Sacred Meditation at the Fetzer Institute introduces Keras Meditation, inspired by the teachings of Father Thomas Keating. Keras Meditation offers two distinct pathways for opening to the sacred: ● Vertical Meditation: A time of stillness, anchored by a personal symbol like "peace," "love," or "I am enough." This word or phrase becomes a point of return whenever the mind wanders. ● Horizontal Meditation: Reflection on sacred text. This week, we contemplate a passage from Octavia Butler’s Parable of the Sower: "Your teachers are all around you, all that you perceive, all that you experience, all that is given to you or taken from you, all that you love or hate, need or fear will teach you if you will learn." With each reading, we listen deeply. What words stand out? What wisdom can we apply to daily life? This meditation reminds us that sacred insight is never far away. Every experience, every challenge, and every joy offers an opportunity for growth. Take a moment to pause, reflect, and open to the sacred within you and around you. #sacredmeditation #kerasmeditation #innerpeace #mindfulnesspractice #spiritualawakening #reflection #octaviabutler #fetzerinstitute
