I went to the Mass this morning. The degree to which we are able to engage in what is going on, depends on the degree of our personal presence. Well, that seems obvious.
The open question: are there any down-to-earth, practical actions we can undertake in order to participate more deeply and fully in the Worship ?
One thing that stroke me today was how the ability to be still and do nothing, and thus refraining from reacting to whatever comes our way opens up the doors to different level of experience.
The Alexander Technique as a foundation for the religious / spiritual life is not the often discussed topic.
For me it's essential. In general, the training of the body to become a balanced, alert, tuned-in and responsive 'instrument' is sadly missing in the Church.
