Methods of Contemplation

Divine Vision: Saint Augustine


Listen Later

This is a look at the Vision of God as described by Saint Augustine. He describes several visions he received while in Milan in 386,  and in Ostia in 388. These narratives owe much to Augustines reading of Plotinus, but they also reflect his own deepening awareness of God's action in his life and the action of grace as a model for the meaning of human existence. Augustine's message is that finding God is not a solipsistic affair, but is essentially ecclesiological, given to those that awaken within the united whole of creation.
