Excerpt from Practice of Mental Prayer
For some years, cases regarding extraordinary prayer have often been laid before me and I have thought Christian charity entailed upon me the duty of giving my humble opinion, in spite of the difficulty of the subject. But in these lofty paths a single answer is generally not enough, and I have been asked to supplement these individual counsels by a treatise on infused Contemplation. I will say nothing more as to the origin of this work, because this is enough to indicate its spirit. It is not a theological, but a practical treatise that I have in mind, and I have avoided, as far as possible anything which might give rise to controversy.
The treatise is divided info five parts.
Part I speaks of the nature and degrees of Contemplation, but only so far as to give the necessary ideas to directors for the guidance of souls.
