These were written during the time of the Late Late Service and some finished at a later time.
They are mostly designed to be read in public gatherings, with some repetitive pattern
music behind them. They are designed lead people into a creative place where they
are at home with God occupying their thoughts, illuminating the free-
They end in a long period of silence / music. If you do them in public you need to bring people into and back out of the meditation. There is some guidance for this in the Quiet Service Handbook.
You might find them helpful to read here though. Please try and read them slowly and let your mind be led forward by them. They will only work if you can trust me enough and not critique the ideas behind them as you go along.

MUSIC
Here are some loops that you could use for meditations. Loops are short bits of music or rhythm you can play round and round (it might say loop or continuous play on your machine or computer) and are kind of trancy in order to keep the mind stable. Click to download.
