INTERSPIRITUAL MEDITATION -- 12

ONE OF ED'S VIDEO INTRODUCTIONS
TO THE SEVEN STEPS OF INTERSPIRITUAL MEDITATION

+ Here is a link to a video from Contemplative Life where my friend and InterSpiritual companion Kate Sheehan-Roach interviews my friend and InterSpiritual Teacher Ed Bastian. Ed offers a great summary here of the seven steps of InterSpiritual Meditation.

+ Here is a link to Contemplative Life, a very comprehensive website with plenty of information about contemplative practices and places where you can engage in contemplative practice.

+ This is a series of posts on InterSpiritual Meditation: A Seven Step Process created by Dr. Edward Bastian. I am an InterSpiritual Mentor certified by SpiritualPaths Institute which Ed established. In these posts I will offer reflections of mine and others on each of the steps which are:

1. Motivation: “May we be Happy and Healthy.”
2. Gratitude: “May we be Grateful for Life’s Many Gifts.”
3. Transformation: “May we be Transformed into Our Highest Being.”
4. Compassion:“May we be Loving and Compassionate.”
5. Mindfulness: “May we be Mindful through Our Breathing.”
6. Wisdom: “May we Become Wise through our Meditation.”
7. Service: “May we be in Service to All.”

+ I invite you to purchase and read Ed's wonderful books including InterSpiritual Meditation: A Seven Step Process and Mandala: Creating an Authentic Spiritual Path -- An InterSpiritual Process.

+ I invite you to consider taking a comprehensive e-course on InterSpiritual Meditation offered by Spiritual Paths.net. The course is always available but periodically it is taught via Zoom by Ed and other teachers as an 8-week course with group participation. Next one starts on January 18, 2023 at 7pm EST.

+ I invite you to join The New Faith for the New Earth Facebook Group where I and group members post and comment on InterSpiritual Wisdom & Practices.
