When I met Simon last night, he said that he kept getting Facebook messages about the blog. This blogger humbly apologises for what might seem overkill but hopes to persuade you and yours, your friends, family and anyone else who might be interested that hearing about and learning to meditate is a good thing. Good for you, good for them and good for anyone who isn't faint hearted about keeping going. The blog has an aim! which is to take an honest look at meditation, demystify some of it, put it up to the light of experience and invite people to join in wherever they are on November 20th! And of course to come in droves to St Martin-in-the-Fields to hear 4 marvellous speakers and to bask in the remarkable space that the Discantvs Choir and Nikki Slade will create with music. And then to join a meditation led by Father Laurence Freeman of the World Community for Christian Meditation. In addition, there will be Sylvia Leiserach who is one of this blogger's best and oldest friends and happens to be a meditator of many years, there will be Donald Lambie, one of the most disciplined men ever, and Richard Burnett, co founder of Mindfulness in Schools who uses meditation as an aid to mindfulness. This is a great line up and isn't just for Grannies although they and the Grandpas are always welcome, this is for people of all ages who might enjoy hearing and experiencing stillness through meditation midweek and mid city. Come along do and bring your friends. You never know, it might change someone's life for the better, it certainly can't change it for the worse!
