Dear Friends,

I saw this in the Prayer Intentions section and don’t know what that means. I looked up the definition.

Thank you and love you, Sheila

I am not sure about this particular topic, but in most cases of a temporary ban, it is because members of CAF have repeatedly shown themselves to be unable to discuss the topic with charity.

The temporary ban gives members a chance to regain their cool. And perhaps provide respite for the moderators.

Problem is, the links at the Sticky are full of misinformation concerning Centering Prayer.

I’ve been doing Centering Prayer for over 35 years. PM me if you want valid information.

Is it like meditation or something we aren’t suppose to do? Love,Sheila
