Note on words:
"Contemplate" and "meditate" have sort of traded places. "Meditatio" had meant "think about things" (as in Descartes), while "contemplatio" was effectively an exercise in *not thinking.*
Contemplatio was Latin for Greek "theoria," which meant pilgrimage and, eventually, meditation.

I pray lectio once a week. It takes me an hour, probably because I write everything, but contemplatio, down - every idea, prayer, insight, analysis, etc. The best hour of my week, apart from Sunday mass.😊 I use a D.O. reading, or a psalm.

I also quite like @jeremykun.com's distinction between "in contemplatio" vs. "in res" applications. I may start using them :)

It follows the four movements of lectio divina: lectio (reading), meditatio (meditation), oratio (prayer), and contemplatio (contemplation), BUT is rooted in eco-justice work so it has an additional final move called “liberatio” meant to move us from contemplation to action on behalf of creation.

„kommunität“ sagen zu müssen, weil „kloster“ zu katholisch klingt, macht aber auch schon wenig vorfreude
dann doch lieber content creatio statt contemplatio

Today is World AIDS day - last year I was thinking about how it was in the late 1980s, when AIDS became known and talked about, and how it felt.
I ended up writing so many posts here that I wrote a long blogpost with ponderings:

Yesterday I wrote some posts about World AIDS Day and thoughts kept pouring out of my head, so I created a blog post.
My thoughts drifted from AIDS and HIV to homophobia then and now as well as my thoughts in the 1980.
It became a long post:

it’s possible contemplatio came to mean paying attention to a space rather than an occurrence
such that birds became thoughts
as in contemplative prayer

As soon as the generals and the politicos
can predict the motions of your mind,
lose it. Leave it as a sign
to mark the false trail, the way
you didn’t go. Be like the fox
who makes more tracks than necessary,
some in the wrong direction.
