"One of the finest books on prayer in the Christian tradition." - Richard Foster, author of Celebration of Discipline
One day while Teresa was praying, God impressed upon her that the human soul is like a magnificent castle with many rooms – and from this, the idea for The Interior Castle was born. Using this analogy, Teresa explores the seven “mansions” of the soul, describing a progressive spiritual journey that culminates in the most intimate union with God in the innermost chamber of our hearts.
Informed by over forty years of contemplation, Teresa’s masterpiece on prayer displays the ultimate combination of spiritual experience, humility, and pragmatism, detailing a life marked by both the highest mystical gifts and the most grounded love for others.
To ensure its enduring relevance, Modern Saints presents a faithful and fresh translation, seamlessly adapted for contemporary readers, allowing you to focus not on wading through archaic language but on soaking in the experiences of a spiritual master.
