Abstract

I develop a technique for contemplative listening, prompted by mutual themes and failings found in contemporary tracts on the subject. I use Meister Eckhart as a foundation towards an areligious technique, spurred by the similarities between grief and apophasis, his metaphor for receptivity of the Other, and his tracts regarding the correct mode of attention while listening. I develop the technique further using contemporary bereavement research, and make suggestions for how a technique could be implemented
