Informazioni su questo ebook

Interior Castle (1577) unveils a profound spiritual vision in which Teresa saw the soul as “a castle made of a single diamond . . . surrounded by six mansions the soul must traverse on its journey to the center of the castle and union with God.” One approached the seventh mansion in the center, where the King of Glory dwells, by going through the other mansions of Humility, Practice of Prayer, Meditation, Quiet, Illumination, and Dark Night. In each of the seven mansions readers will experience a deepening desire to know God more intimately by conforming their wills to His will.

Informazioni sull'autore

Baptized as Teresa Sánchez de Cepeda y Ahumada (1515--1582), Teresa of Ávila, was a prominent Spanish mystic, Roman Catholic saint, Carmelite nun, author during the Counter Reformation, and theologian of contemplative life through mental prayer. She was a reformer of the Carmelite Order and is considered to be a founder of the Discalced Carmelites, along with John of the Cross. Her books, which include her autobiography (The Life of Teresa of Jesus) and her seminal work The Interior Castle, are an integral part of Spanish Renaissance literature, as well as Christian mysticism and Christian meditation practices.
