PLAN OF LIFE FOR LAY CISTERCIANS OF GETHSEMANI ABBEY
Contemplation is the highest expression of man's intellectual and spiritual
life. It is that life itself, fully awake, fully active, fully aware that it is
alive. It is spiritual wonder. It is spontaneous awe at the sacredness of life,
of being. It is gratitude for life, for awareness and for being. It is a vivid
realization of the fact that life and being in us proceed from an invisible,
transcendent and infinitely abundant source. Contemplation is, above all,
awareness of the reality of that Source. (Thomas Merton)
We invite you to prayerfully read and ponder this Plan of Life.
