THROUGH CLOSENESS TO SUFFERING, We are pulled out of our heads and into our hearts and sobs! We are finally thrown into the belly of the whale, where all transformation and enlightenment happens. Jesus said 'No sin shall be given... except the sign of Jonah' (Matt 12:39)

MERTON ONCE SAID: we spend our whole life climbing the ladder of success and when we get to the top, we realize it's leaning against the wrong wall!, I believe that, in the end, there are really only two "cauldrons of transformation": great love and great suffering.

The Bible tells us that you can buy five sparrows for a penny: yet God keeps his eye on every sparrow. He counts every hair of your head. There's nothing to fear: you mean more to him than a flock of sparrows. (Luke 12:6, NW p83)

MORNING PRAYER: Living God, we are here waiting. To welcome you, you ask of us simplicity. You ask us to dare to come before you just as we are, not wearing any kind of mask, nothing that veils your image in each one of us. And so we come to you at each moment with open hearts.

THE GOOD SHEPHERD: He feeds his flock like a shepherd, carrying his lambs in his arms, holding them to his breast and gently leading the ewes heavy with young.

Bodmin Hermit @bodminhermit.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

TRUTH lies in the person of Jesus Christ. Hold fast to him, breath in his words, observe his actions and take note of how he handled relationships. Then go on searching for the truth. With His help you will find it, and live by it.

Bodmin Hermit @bodminhermit.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

MORNING PRAYER: Although within us there are wounds, Lord Christ, above all there is the miracle of your presence. Thus made lighter, or even free we are going with you, the Christ, from one discovery to another.

SERENITY: I pass my time as it comes; Looking down at the stream, Looking up at the mountain, How serene and relaxed I feel. (Pao-Tzu Wen-Ch'i C900)

HERMIT RULE 27: Keep pure in heart and united with the Lord. Your journey is from God to God. Meet the mystery of the desert in your own interior solitude and then eventually in what surrounds it.

DO YOU WANT TO KNOW what goes on in the core of the Trinity? I will tell you. In the core of the Trinity the Father laughs and gives birth to the Son. The Son laughs back at the Father and gives birth to the Spirit. The whole Trinity laughs and gives birth to us. Eckhart

Bodmin Hermit @bodminhermit.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

EVENING PRAYER: Breath of Christ, through you all things are made. You cause fountains to spring up, surging with the unexpected. You breathe upon whatever is fragile and vulnerable, enabling us to rest in you, body and soul.

Bodmin Hermit @bodminhermit.bsky.social · 26/09/2026

BEING PRAYED THROUGH: I am a hole in a flute that Christ's breath moves through - listen to this music. God cannot be captured in any form of words that we could control or ideas we could formulate, but is like the very air, breath, spirit in front of our mouth.

HERMIT RULE 26: Liberate yourself from everything that doesn't concern you. Don't depend on people or on situations. Look for your refuge and your help only in God.

Bodmin Hermit @bodminhermit.bsky.social · 25/09/2026

GOODNESS ISN'T SAMENESS One of the wonderful things in naming God as Father Son and Holy Spirit is its affirmation that there is an intrinsic plurality to Goodness. Goodness needs contrast and tension, not perfect uniformity. Trinity is all God, yet clearly different Embrace!

St. Elsewhere: Lord, Heal us! Kneel and listen: Never elswhere, always present MEDITATION is refusing to project our anxieties elsewhere and learning to hold and face them within ourselves and within God.

DYING & LIVING AGAIN Guesses of course, only guesses. If they are not true, something better will be. For we know we shall be made like Him, for we shall see him as He is. Our death implicit in our birth we cease or cannot be and know when we are laid in earth we perish utterly

MORNING PRAYER: Lord of Life, Spirit of Truth, Inner Light, you come to us always, welcoming us each moment in the silence of this place. Lord, this day, open my eyes, my heart, and my soul to a deeper awareness of you in the beauty of creation and to the blowing of your Spirit.

Bodmin Hermit @bodminhermit.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

CRAZY WORLD: STEP OUT, SIT WITH ME FOR A WHILE. In today’s busy world, people often miss one simple truth: real power begins in silence. Instead of constant action, quiet moments create powerful manifestation. When the mind slows clarity grows.

030

Bodmin Hermit @bodminhermit.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

SILENCE: True silence is found by stepping back from the urge to analyze. When we stop the constant internal chatter and endless streams of logical deduction, we allow a profound, restorative stillness to naturally emerge within our core self.

060

Bodmin Hermit @bodminhermit.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

HERMIT RULE 24: Silence consists, above all, in being quiet so as to be always ready to receive something greater. Leave your analyses and the avalanche of your deductions. Allow silence to be manifested within your interior self.

I AM WHAT I AM SEEKING: All true prayers are already assured of their answer. It's God in you that loves God. It's God through you that recognizes God. It's God for you that assures you all is finally OK. Now you're living in The Flow. Now you are already home. Triune Life

MERTON writes from his hermitage... One might say I had decided to marry the silence. The sweet dark warmth of the whole world will have to be my wife. Out of the heart of that dark warmth comes the secret that is only heard in silence but is the root of all secrets.

Bodmin Hermit @bodminhermit.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

HERMIT RULE 23: God alone suffices. Be open to the Mystery. Authentic silence draws you to rest, like a child, in the Lord Himself. Come to the Quiet. www.youtube.com/watch?v=834G...

IN THE CROSS where the vertical and horizontal meet, in union with God we also arrive and the center which is hidden, yet everywhere and from which all humanity knowingly or unknowingly cries out for and receives the healing touch of God. In prayer we hold the world's humanity.

020

Bodmin Hermit @bodminhermit.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

JOURNEY INTO GOD: We cannot enter into the deepest center of ourselves and pass through that center into God unless we are able to pass entirely out of ourselves in order to give to others the purity of a selfless love. We don't drift into deep places with God by accident.

CONTEMPLATION is the highest and most paradoxical form of self-realization attained by apparent self-annihilation. The reason for this loss is not that the person loses his metaphysical status but rather that his real status is quite other than what it empirically appears to be.

Bodmin Hermit @bodminhermit.bsky.social · 21/09/2026

THE LIGHT of CHRIST Lord, in our darkness, you kindle a flame that never dies. You set your spirit within our frailty, even when we are not aware of it, and you hold us always, even until the end of time. Be in the heart of each to whom I speak www.youtube.com/watch?v=--ai...

HERMIT RULE 21. Transcend the times when you find yourself in an adverse environment or discover that the nearest things are the most distant, and transform into love the impositions of any place.

SITTING IN SILENCE: Is prayer! The more I sit in silence, the more I appreciate its profound effect on my being. Relying less and less on words to convey meaning, I find myself resting in a place of soft attention. Peter the hermit and prayer partner

HERMIT RULE 20: Contemplation consists in attending to and adhering to the Presence of God in the depth, root, and centre of our being. Keeping in mind that this is a grace, live it and pray for it constantly.

THE MYSTERY: In the Eucharist we move beyond mere words and go to that place where we don't talk about the mystery any more, we just merge to where we are one.

From "The remembrance of the Desire of a Soul" Thomas of Celano. on Francis of Assisi. What tongue could tell of this man's compassion for the poor? He certainly had an inborn kindness, doubled by the piety poured out on him. Therefore the soul of Francis melted for the poor.
