I've read quite a bit on these subjects and I'm interested in knowing if we're talking about the same thing.

Thanks,

Contemplative prayer. aka Centering Prayer. aka Lectio Divina. aka Be Still. I used Christian mysticism because it's commonly used in reference with Contemplative Prayer and the like. It's traced back to Buddhism, Zen and Hinduism.

I've been reading more and more about it. Unfortunately, I'm finding out this junk is being promoted by some of my favorite Evangelical authors and speakers.
