John
Main's
teachings
We are very fortunate that John Main had the foresight to make audio recordings of hundreds of his talks. He also wrote several books. Consequently, he left us an invaluable legacy of profound and inspirational teachings on Christianity, spirituality and meditation, some of which are available on this website. (see below)
In our weekly meditation groups we usually start the meetings by listening to a recording of one of the teachings, before meditating together.
These teachings are available as audio CD's and books from: www.mediomedia.org
The titles of the tracks themselves give some indication of the range and depth of John Main's teachings. To see a list of his CD sets, including the titles of the talks on each CD, click here.
Here are some of John Main's teachings in either audio format or as transcripts of his talks:
