Hi all —
I’m Mary Williams, a writer and editor from San Marcos, CA. Ever since I encountered Meditations on the Tarot about 10 years ago, I have longed for a course to guide me through it. So this course is an answer to my longing — my prayers! As I read the first few letters, I felt like I was receiving some sort of transmission — like a “catalyst” or energetic substance, through Tomberg’s words. And though I’ve enjoyed slowly reading about 2/3 of the text on my own, I sense that being accompanied by a study group and a guide like Carl is just what I, and we, need.
I am also the coordinator of Contemplative Outreach of North San Diego, a local chapter of the larger Contemplative Outreach organization that teaches Thomas Keating’s approach to contemplative prayer/practice: Centering Prayer. I’m sure many of you are familiar with it.
Blessings & gratitude,
Mary WilliamsHi Mary! I’m active in the Contemplative Outreach of Atlanta and North Georgia chapter, I co-lead a local group on Wednesday nights. As you may imagine, much of what drew me to this book at first was the curiosity about how staunch Christian contemplatives like Keating and Pennington could endorse a book like this, and so enthusiastically no less! I’ve come to see that this book is a natural companion to so much of the Centering Prayer world, from the gesture of consent, to the welcoming prayer, to the unloading of the unconscious… again and again I see points of resonance and coherence. Hope you will find some interesting connections of your own as well!
