CLOUD OF UNKNOWING

Friday 18 June to Sunday 20 June Residential: £185, Non-residential: £123

Please arrive by 6pm on Friday. Course ends with lunch on Sunday.

The focus of the weekend will be ‘The Cloud of Unknowing’ - an anonymous work of Christian mysticism written in the latter half of the 14th century which has reputedly inspired generations of mystical searchers, from John Scotus Erigena to St. John of the Cross and Teilhard de Chardin.

Kim Nataraja writes: “The text has untold treasures even for modern men and women. It is a superb mystical guide for those who hunger for depth and meaning in life and in prayer. During this weekend we will not only look at the lessons it contains for us trying to live a meaningful life in an age of constant surface change and uncertainty, but we will also put into practice its advice on contemplative prayer.”
Kim Nataraja, a regular and much loved course leader at Ammerdown, has been a contemplative since her youth and is also a trained Spiritual Director. She joined The World Community for Christian Meditation in 1993 and, since 1999, has been helping Laurence Freeman OSB to guide and co-ordinate the International School. Her particular interests are those inspiring figures from the Christian Spiritual Tradition who guide us in the contemplative life, and the ways in which psychological insights can aid our progress.
