There is a story of Mother Theresa being interviewed. When she was asked what she said to God in her prayers she answered that she didn’t say anything. When asked then what God said to her, she said that he didn’t say anything either.
I love that story. It sounds very much like my own engagement with God, the experience of quiet presence expressed in my Square Mandalas and Remnants, this quiet, focused attentiveness of deep silence.
These are listening prayers, a contemplative engagement with God’s own silence.
