A Journey Through States of Consciousness
"In the depths, a person does not pray for the sake of life, but rather to 'know' life in a new way. This is the primal prayer that lies at the foundation of all prayers."
This book is the fruit of years of practice and exploration in the School for the Art of Prayer at the Shakio Institute. It offers a fundamentally new understanding of the meaning of prayer as a unique opportunity to open to the inner depths of our lives.
The Art of Prayer is a regenerative learning approach exploring a core component of human existence, our natural capacity for prayer. It is a framework of practices in which people from all walks of life, religious and secular, those who have an existing prayer practice and those who do not, are invited to discover fresh gateways into the Art of Prayer.
This book profoundly addresses fundamental questions at the intersection of consciousness, embodiment, and spiritual practice.
Shakio is a space for collaborative exploration, founded by Baruch Brenner, an orthodox rabbi and multidisciplinary artist, who investigates and teaches performance art and Jewish mysticism, the author of “From the Diary of a Worshiper” (Idra Publishing), and Dana Ganihar, a Focusing Coordinator and teacher of the philosophy of Eugene Gendlin.
Discover fresh gateways into the Art of Prayer, a journey through states of consciousness that opens the depths of life.
