Excerpt from The Degrees of the Spiritual Life
Seraph of Carmel from the writings of innumerable other Saints with such skill that the whole work has become, not a mere mosaic of quotations, but a luminous exposition of the science of perfection. It is, however, unnecessary for me to commend a work which has already been welcomed so warmly, and which has the special authorization and approval of His Eminence Cardinal Mathieu and other distinguished members of the hierarchy.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricate landscape of the Christian soul, exploring the different stages of spiritual growth and the challenges faced by individuals seeking to deepen their faith. Drawing upon the wisdom of influential figures such as St. Teresa of Avila, St. Francis of Sales, and other mystical writers, the author provides a comprehensive guide to the journey of spiritual perfection. The book examines the various degrees of sinfulness, moving from obduracy and its causes, to the distinct characteristics of those who live purely natural lives, unmotivated by Christian principles. It then introduces the concept of the "purgative way," the initial phase of charity where the soul battles against sin and strives to develop virtuous habits. The author meticulously analyzes different types of believers, outlining their unique challenges and offering practical advice for spiritual direction. He explores the importance of prayer, discernment, and the various forms of prayer that accompany spiritual growth, including discursive prayer, affective prayer, and the prayer of fervent souls. Throughout this journey, the author emphasizes the need for humility, renunciation, and reliance on divine grace. The insights presented in this book offer a valuable roadmap for those seeking to navigate the complexities of their spiritual development, providing a rich historical and theological framework for understanding the journey of the Christian soul toward God.
