The book focuses on the importance of prayer and contemplation as fundamental tools for achieving union with God. St Teresa teaches us how to cultivate a life of constant and profound prayer, emphasising the importance of interior recollection and full attention to the divine presence. She also encourages us to seek solitude and silence as spaces conducive to encountering the divine.

She exhorts us to renounce our ego and worldly desires, inviting us to embrace virtue and to follow the example of Christ in our daily lives. Through his words, we discover the beauty and transformative power of a life centred on love and selfless service.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: St. Teresa of Avila is an unsurpassed teacher of Christian prayer, and in The Way of Perfection she is at her best. Now with the help of this study edition and its helpful commentary and explanations by Teresian expert Fr. Kieran Kavanaugh, everyone can enjoy the benefits of her wisdom. More Information A Study Edition, with Introduction, Commentary, Discussion Questions, and Glossary. St. Teresa of Avila is an unsurpassed teacher of Christian prayer and spirituality, and in The Way of Perfection she is at her best. Now, with the help of this study edition, everyone can enjoy the benefits of her wisdom. In The Way of Perfection, St. Teresa gives practical counsels and advice on prayer, destined originally for the few nuns who embraced the reformed Carmelite life she established. As a handbook for spiritual formation, it presented them with the basic Christian spirituality undergirding their Constitutions and Rule. Over the centuries, the book's appeal has reached far beyond the walls of Carmelite monasteries, and The Way of Perfection has become a spiritual classic. More and more today, Teresa's instructions speak to all those interested in prayer, providing them with basic guidelines for praying and showing how to avoid potential pitfalls. But as the readership and interest grow, so does the need for some help in working with this sixteenth-century text. The principles and teachings in Teresa's book, first presented within the limited horizons of her own situation, clearly lend themselves to broader applications, and can work well in all walks of life. This study edition-with its introduction, commentary, notes, discussion questions, and glossary-provides what is needed to assist contemporary readers in making these applications and delving more deeply into the text's spiritual riches.

His style of mixing broad colloquialisms, stringent irony, and poetry has all the life and atmosphere of an oral teaching. Great care has been taken by the translators to render the precise meaning of the text in English while still reflecting the vigor and insight of the original Tibetan.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally written for her sisters in the order that she had belonged to, St. Teresa lays out a book of advice to attain true communion with God. Although some of the chapters feel like rules rather than guidance, the steps within this book help to draw us closer to god via prayer, meditation and silence. Many times in our loud world we try to show our closeness with God via loud exclamations of what our Lord is doing but St. Teresa shows a different and heartfelt way of meditating on God's word in a silent nature allowing us to see that relationship with God is a private thing that no one has any say over except God himself and His word.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: C'est à l'insistance de la communauté du monastère Saint-Joseph d'Avila que nous devons Le Chemin de la perfection. Désireuses de profiter de l'expérience spirituelle de leur mère Thérèse, les soeurs lui demandèrent de leur parler de l'oraison. Thérèse avait rédigé en 1565 le récit de sa vie, mais celui-ci, jugé trop personnel par son confesseur, ne fut pas divulgué. Elle entreprend donc en 1566 un nouvel ouvrage plus bref, où elle s'exprime dans un style simple et familier, comme en dialogue avec ses soeurs. Elle y dévoile le secret de la « perfection » pour le chrétien : laisser toute la place à Dieu et à son prochain. Sainte Thérèse d'Avila est une carmélite espagnole, (1515-1582). Profondément mystique, elle laisse des écrits sur son expérience spirituelle et devient une figure majeure de la spiritualité chrétienne. Elle a été proclamée docteur de l'Église par le pape Paul VI en 1970. Traduit de l'espagnol par Marcelle Auclair.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A tireless communicator of the gospel…[Teresa of Ávila] opens new horizons for us, she calls us to a great undertaking, to see the world with the eyes of Christ, to seek what He seeks and to love what He loves.” —Pope Francis Although Teresa of Ávila lived five centuries ago, her superbly inspiring classic on the practice of prayer is as fresh and meaningful today as it was when she first wrote it. Teresa’s strong desire throughout is to lead readers into a deeper and prevailing life of prayer. She begins with a treatment of the three essentials of the prayer-filled life—fraternal love, detachment from created things, and authentic humility. Building on that foundation, she then teaches on the cherished practices of prayer and contemplation. Finally, she provides a detailed and moving discourse on the Lord’s Prayer. Experience the fervent devotion of St. Teresa, and allow her to help you explore the rewarding discipline of contemplative prayer.

Those who lead a virtuous, Christian life may discover wounds in similar places to that of Jesus Christ’s crucifixion wounds, for example, the hands and feet from the nails, the head from the crown of thorns, or the shoulders and back from the weight of carrying the cross.
