A type of prayer supposedly developed in France during WWII. From the way it has been described to me, some scripture readings are done, but much of the time is apparently spent in silent navel gazing with violins playing in the background. Elements of the silent prayer time described to me sound like centering prayer.

Personally, I'd rather spend the time at Mass and know that I receive some real spiritual sustenance.
