"The Ways of Mental Prayer" ranks as one of the Church s greatest
classics on prayer, and was highly recommended as such by Fr.
Garrigou-LaGrange, the 20th Century s greatest authority on
mystical theology.
Here Dom Lehodey, Abbot of Bricquebec, concentrates on the
beginning stages of prayer, up through what is called the prayer of
quiet, but he also describes the higher forms of prayer as well,
including the very summit, or the prayer of union. In the process,
he explains the advantages, the joys and--yes-- the trials of
mental prayer, plus he gives practical instructions on the methods
of practicing this type of prayer.
He also shows what to avoid and how to overcome the difficulties
involved. By far the salient strength of this book is its
description of how one goes from ordinary prayer to mystical
prayer, which constitutes the giant step in the spiritual life. A
wise and learned guide to spiritual matters, " The Ways of Mental
Prayer" is a work destined to lead many to divine intimacy--a
foretaste of Heaven on earth.
