The Practice of the Presence of God

The core concept underlined is about anchoring oneself in God's presence throughout the day by multitasking worldly activities with maintaining a spiritual connection. This practice is depicted as being more than traditional prayer, emphasizing continuous communion with God. Various terms such as 'abiding,' 'prayer without ceasing,' 'contemplation,' and 'advanced prayer' have been used in different spiritual teachings to describe this constant connection with the divine. The example of Brother Lawrence, a fifteenth-century monk who dedicated his life to the practice of the presence of God while working as a dishwasher, illustrates the essence of prioritizing spiritual connection in all aspects of life.
