The Way of Perfection
by St Teresa of Avila

Saint Teresa of Ávila, mystic, Carmelite reformer, and Doctor of the Church, is one of the greatest people to ever walk the face of the Earth—and even one of the greatest saints. Her position as a spiritual master is uncontested and, as her Way of Perfection will attest, her method of prayer was simple: through astounding sanctity and humility, as well as intensive recollection, we may approach God through meditation and come to know Him intimately. And He always rewards us more than we deserve.

From this saintly life developed a method of prayer, a veritable method of growing in perfection, that includes such insights as this:
  • Prayer must never be self-indulgent.
  • Only solitude and interior quietude are necessary for meditative prayer.
  • Vocal prayer is of extreme use and must be said humbly and attentively.
  • Meditation is necessary to grow in virtue.
  • Recollection of one's nothingness before prayer is essential.
  • Humility and perseverance are necessary for prayer.
  • And so much more . . .

The Way of Perfection is an astounding work by an astounding saint, a highly detailed and immensely useful guide to approaching the Lord through higher and higher degrees of meditative prayer and contemplation, written by the queen among the saints of meditation, beyond compare in mystical wisdom. Let that wisdom pierce your heart too, through the words of these pages.
