What is

Contemplation is a gift we have already received.
    Waking up to it is a good metaphor
        because one wakes up from sleep
            to whatever one’s level of consciousness normally is.

The highest experience of God is no experience.
            It just is.

Fr. Thomas Keating, Reflections on the Unknowable
