Carthusian spirituality and wisdom have a great attraction for our
age. The goal of Carthusian life is union with God in Love. A union
as profound and continual as is possible in this life. It has its
source in God who is the first to call us to intimacy with Him. The
Carthusian's life, the Carthusian's love, is a response to that
Love - cultivating solitude, silence, poverty, chastity, obedience,
fraternal charity, spiritual reading, study, work and, above all,
prayer. Prayer of adoration, praise and intercession. This book is
written as a guide to help the beginner during his first months in
the Charterhouse. It is a practical introduction for the aspirant
to the Carthusian life, providing guidelines of orientation to help
during the first steps in solitude as well as essential themes of
spiritual formation. Following the young monk, listening in
complete openness to God who speaks in the depth of his heart, the
reader outside the monastery can gain an insight into this powerful
spirituality and the silence of a heart in love. Other books of
classic Carthusian spirituality published by Gracewing include The
Call of Silent Love, Early Carthusian Writings, Interior Prayer,
The Prayer of Love and Silence, They Speak by Silences, The Way of
Silent Love and The Wound of Love.
