"These prayers and meditations are traces of an experiment," writes Gerald Heard in his Introduction to PRAYERS AND MEDITATIONS. "Seven were written by one of our ablest authors." The experiment Heard references was Trabuco College, which Heard founded in California in 1941. The ablest author was Aldous Huxley, Heard's sometime co-adventurer in mystical voyages.

Huxley's contributions consist of the Meditation section of the chapters Being, Beauty (I), Love, Grace (I), Holiness, Peace, and Joy. Along with Huxley's seven contributions are selections by St. Albert, St. Anselm, Dionysius the Areopagite, William H. Forthman, and Margaret Gage. Heard penned all the others.

Altogether these powerful reflections, "are present-day renderings of those thoughts and feelings which have been rising in men since they began to reach out to Him who is beyond the senses." PRAYERS AND MEDITATIONS equips the contemporary spiritual aspirant with a wellspring of inspirational devotions, ever invoking, "the desire to remember constantly the all-pervading, transcendent Presence of God."
