Dhikr for the 2nd Sunday of Lent (B)
Selected Passage: “And Jesus was transfigured before them, and his clothes became dazzling white, such as no fuller on earth could bleach them." (Mk. 9: 2-3)
Reflection: Lent is a special season to have an “experience” our own TRANSFIGURATION”… The experience of being transformed by the LOVE and FORGIVENESS of the Lord!
DHIKR SIMPLE METHOD...
Dhikr is an Arabic word for remembrance. In the “tariqa” (the way) movement, dhikr developed into a form of prayer… It is a prayer of the heart… following three simple steps:
- Write in one’s heart a certain passage of the Holy Writ…
- Make the same passage ever present in one’s lips.
- Then wait for God’s disclosure on the meaning of the passage…that interprets one’s life NOW…!
It takes a week of remembering (dhikr)…or even more days to relish the beauty of this method…
