Excerpt from Three Counsels of the Divine Master for the Conduct of the Spiritual Life, Vol. 1 of 2
Those who, at any period of the Church's history, put forth works designed to guide the Christian in the conduct of the spiritual life, may always find sufficient apology for what they do, in the variety either of men's characters, or of the circumstances of the age.
First, it is good that Divine Truth, and especially a portion of it so concerning, and of such moment, as that which has to do with holy living, should be exhibited under different aspects, - reflected under the various angles of incidence at which it strikes various minds. The aspect of it, which comes home powerfully to one mind, may be expected to attract and influence minds similarly constituted, while those of a different cast will find it to be unimpressive, and, while they in no way question or deny it, will not recognise in it anything helpful for themselves.
