An Undergirding Worship

Inward and Living Prayer

Feb 9, 2011


Welcome to OneLife Ministries, an online ministry of Brian Kenneth Wilcox Ministries and Love Light Fellowship. This site is here to lead you into a heart experience of Divine Presence, Who is Love. We recognize “that of the Sacred in each one” and celebrate the diversity of expressions of our Oneness in Grace. We are for peace and nonviolence, and equal rights and justice for all. I hope persons of varied wisdom paths will find inspiration here. Welcome!

Blessings,
Brian Kenneth Wilcox

To all who enter this sacred space, we wish the receiving of the Light of Divine Presence, to bless you, and those near you, and strengthen for all good service, in Love. Love is in the Air, in many forms of manifestation... receive...

Entering the Inner Sanctuary

Enter this sanctuary time by settling down, becoming quiet, and breathing deeply a few breaths. Remind yourself you are in the Presence of Love. This place you are entering, within, is the inner Temple. Here, you are One with Spirit and all persons, and Nature. You may use a mantra, or prayer phrase, follow the breathing in-and-out, or witness the arising and falling of all around you as the manifestation of universal-Grace. Enjoy these moments of Quiet and come out when you are ready. The following video is provided, for those who would like meditative music to accompany your Quiet contemplation:

Spiritual Teaching

"My Source is the One, I tell you truly, ... who gives you true nourishment. For the nourishment of the One is what descends from the Heavens, giving Life to everyone. They said, "Master, give us this nourishment always."

*A Jesus Saying, Gospel of John 6.32-40

* * *

At first the practice of inward prayer is a process of alternation of attention between outer things and the Inner Light. Preoccupation with either brings the loss of the other. Yet what is sought is not alternation, but simultaneity, worship undergirding every moment, living prayer, the continous current and background of all moments of life.

There is no new technique for entrance upon this stage where the soul in its deeper levels is continously at Home in Awareness-Spirit. [And] the processes of inward prayer do not grow more complex, but more simple.

*Thomas Kelly (1893-1941). A Testament of Devotion. Chapter "The Light Within." Inclusive adaptation - "him" to "Awareness-Spirit."
