The mind thinks it can look at things directly and understand them – which is a very big assumption.There is another way of knowing ourselves and one another that Fr Richard Rohr calls “non dual thinking” or contemplation. He is convinced it is the only possible way to forgive.
Fr Richard Rohr is a Franciscan priest of the New Mexico Province. He lives in a hermitage behind his Franciscan community – the Center for Action and Contemplation – in Albuquerque, New Mexico, where he presently serves as founding director.
