Ignatian
Contemplative Prayer:
Praying with Our Imagination
On
this site we include a number of examples of Ignatian contemplations.
"Contemplation"
is the word St. Ignatius used to describe the type of prayer he recommends
in that part of the Spiritual Exercises where he shows us how to grow
in intimacy with our Lord. He invites us to "enter the scene"
and let it reveal our Lord to us.
Use
these examples to help with contemplating any gospel passage. The
only real "rule" is not to worry and let the Lord show himself
to us.
How
do we pray with our imagination?
