Spiritual Exercises to Serve for the Annual Retreat of a Carmelite (Classic Reprint)

Rome, A pril 27, 1919. Discalced Carmelites General House, Corso dltalia, 38. My Very Reverend Mother Prioress: As you have kindly asked my opinion of theS piritual Exercises that you have translated from French into English, and propose to have printed, I can only say with his Eminence, Cardinal Donnet, Archbishop of Bordeaux, who approved them in 1852: They denote a profound knowledge of the spirit of Carmel, and will serve greatly to maintain and develop it. What pleases me above all is that the author insists so much on the meditation of theL ife ofO urL ord Jesus Christ, which is the pure doctrine of our Holy Mother Teresa of Jesus, and of our Father St. John of the Cross. No one can advance in virtue ,says the latter, but in following Our Lord Jesus Christ; He is theW ay, the Truth, and theL ife, the only gate by which any one who pretends to be saved, should enter. Let the first care of your heart therefore be, to excite in yourself an ardent desire to imitate Jesus Christ in all your works, trying to do everything as Our Lord Himself would do it .A nd our Holy Mother Teresa teaches us that in the beginning of the life of prayer, we should meditate assiduously on the life of Jesus Christ ,that meditation on the Passion is the method of prayer by which all should commence and continue ;that it is a sure and excellent road which we should not leave until Our Lord Himself raises us to higher ways .
