Married to Amazement

from Spiritual Living Podcast Archive Hosted by Rev. Patrick Cameron

Rev. Patrick continues his discussion of Geneen Roth's book Women Food and God. In the chapter entitled "Married to Amazement", Geneen concludes that the mind is mad. But once we accept the madness, we can pay attention to what isn't mad. And this is one of the main purposes of meditation. To focus upon what isn't mad. Why meditate? Our incessantly thinking mind is useful when we need to conceptualize, plan, and theorize. But, when we depend on our mind to guide our inner lives, we're lost. So the practice of meditation gradually brings our inner guidance closer, so that we can recognize it clearly when we need it the most.
