Summary: Great modern master
Comment: The simplicity of his style will charm you. The depth of his experience will impress you. The sheer beauty of his message will convince you. John Main is without doubt one of the greatest modern masters of prayer.
His teaching is about Christian Meditation. That is the term he used for the deep interior prayer form, based upon use of a "Christian mantra" which he taught until his untimely death in 1982 He had learned to meditate while living in Asia, from a Buddhist monk. When he returned to England, he found that such meditation was frowned upon by Western Christian religious, although it is not much different from the Jesus Prayer used for centuries in the Eastern Church.
Over a long period, his superiors became convinced of his orthodoxy, and they even made it his task to spread the practice of this truly Christian prayer form. He had by then read and studied many early Christian writers, and in his writing often refers to John Cassian and others, indicating that this is, indeed, a prayer like that used by Christians from the earliest times. It had unfortunately become submerged for a few centuries, but Main was among the leaders in re-introducing a way of prayer accessible to everyone.
His writing is clear and will inspire you, be you a rank beginner or one far along on the path.
