2013 Reprint of 1937 Edition. Exact facsimile of the original
edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Evelyn
Underhill was an English Anglo-Catholic writer and pacifist known
for her numerous works on religion and spiritual practice, in
particular Christian mysticism. This book contains in an expanded
form the four addresses on the Spiritual Life which were given by
Underhill in 1936. The are published in response to numerous
requests from listeners and in the hope that they will be found
suitable for Lenten reading. The spiritual life is here considered,
not as an intense form of piety peculiar to saints, but as the
living heart of all religion, and therefore of vital concern to
ordinary men and women. Its essence is held to consist in a growing
communion with God, a growing cooperation with Him, inspiring and
transforming every kind of action from the most routine to the most
heroic. Essays are: What is the Spiritual Life The Spiritual Life
as Communion with God The Spiritual Life as Co-operation with God
Some Questions and Difficulties.
