Mediation + Contemplation = Successful Spiritual Life
Mediation: the past, personal strengths of virtue, strengths of OTHERS virtue (many New Agers don’t bother with this one), patterns of “consciousness” ..
which then very naturually meets contemplation..
Contemplation: the current situation, sure, Eckhart’s- “Now”… the “Now” combined with the possibility of opportunity, evolving into “contemplated” action from ones ambition and intent
