spiritual companionship

This term is not so familiar in the Indian context though it is practised formally in many friendships and mentoring situations. It is basically a conversation between two people who are listening with their hearts being aware of God's Spirit in their midst. One is usually trained to be a listener and the best picture I have of this is three empty chairs....the spirtiual director (or companion), the directee (or the one who desires a companion) and God......there is a holy ground in the conversation and over time a companionship develops to enrich growth and rooting in the Holy One.

This type of companionship is available at Aadisha either face to face or on line.(Sheila trained as a spiritual companion at SGM New Zealand)
