“The experience of meditation is the experience of integration and wholeness. In the Christian tradition it’s called the ‘prayer of the heart.’ The heart is a symbol, not only of interiority, and it’s much more than just a symbol of emotions. The heart is really a symbol spiritually, in all traditions, of wholeness, of integrity, integration. It’s in the heart-consciousness that physical, mental, and spiritual dimensions of ourselves find unity, find harmony, and integration.” From Laurence Freeman OSB, Grace at Work: The Healing Power of Meditation (London: Medio Media).
