The monk strives for unity. The Latin word monachus, which gave Abbey Church by the Orpheus Singers the English ‘monk’, comes from the Greek ‘monos’: ‘one’. The monks’ life in aid of our Accessible Paths Project, tends towards unity. They pursue it and already manifest it: a community at amounted to £712.

  • Prayer and the Healing of Nature
    PRAYER AND THE HEALING OF NATURE Robert Govaerts UR MENTAL ATTITUDES, CONVICTIONS, desires, wills, and indeed O prayers not only affect ourselves, but necessarily also influence the existence of other beings and, ultimately, the global and cosmic totality. I would like to argue that the mental disposition and spiritual openness that help to attune us to God’s will and prepare us to receive God’s grace, within ourselves and within wider creation, are crucial for the healing of the self and of nature. As such, I consider that the prayer and spiritual seeking that aim to involve our entire being in attunement with the wider creation are human capacities indispensable for universal well-being. I shall seek for inspiration especially in St Paul, in the Gospels, in the Byzantine saint Maximus the Confessor, and in modern science.1 The Context of Human Existence With the early Church fathers Gregory of Nyssa (c.335 – c.395) and Maximus the Confessor (c.580–662) we can envisage that the path of created reality moves from division into multiplicity towards harmony in unity.2 The divisions that are omnipresent within created reality fragment and distort a creature’s particular existence; they divide the various created realities from each other; and above all they divide those realities from God the Creator. Earlier than Gregory or Maximus, Paul had affirmed that the unity of creation, in which divisions have been overcome, is reached through and in Christ. The ultimate destiny of both humanity and the universal creation is reached when all things have been subjected to 1 This article is indebted to André Louf’s ‘Prayer and Ecology’, The Way, 45/4 (October 2006).

This book cannot be expected to please everybody, and it makes no attempt to conciliate those who prefer sentiment to truth, or who allow their reading of historical events to be distorted by present-day controversies, whether ecclesiastical or political. In that respect it tries to live up to the dictum of Samuel Butler that 'he excels most who hits the golden mean most exactly in the middle'.
