Summary

Centering Prayer is a Christian contemplative practice rooted in Matthew 6:6 and draws heavily from the traditions of the Desert Fathers and Mothers, John Cassian, Francis de Sales, Teresa of Avila, John of the Cross, Therese of Lisieux, and Thomas Merton. The core of the practice involves a focus on inner silence and “forgetting” specific thoughts about God’s attributes during the contemplative process itself.
