This is why, when calling upon all believers to contemplate Christ's face continually, I nurture an unending hope that His Mother, Mary, will be their Master (Teacher) with regard to such contemplation.
I think this means that Mary contemplated Jesus's face on the cross, and she is the best qualified to teach others how to contemplate his face.

it is for this reason ...
It is for this reason that, in calling the faithful to an unceasing contemplation of the face of Christ, it has been my infinite desire that His Mother, Mary, should be the guiding spirit of that contemplation

Guide for this contemplation.
As the chief "Guru" of the Church, the Pope (who has a very personal, life-long veneration of the BVM himself) here echos the themes of "pray without ceasing" and "contemplate the Face of Christ", both of which have a very ancient historical lineage in the spiritual practices of the Church.
"Contemplate without ceasing" is a spiritual practice and John Paul II is suggesting that accepting the Virgin as the "Guide" for this practice is the key to its sucess.
