Beginning Prayer - The Second Mansions Part 1 TOG EP 79

 

In Tales of Glory podcast episode 79, we examine the beginning prayer life in Saint Teresa of Avila's Interior Castle Second Mansions. In previous episodes of Tales of Glory, we have covered Saint Teresa's classic text on prayer, The Interior Castle. Now, how do we begin our journey in developing a Teresan interior prayer life? What is an interior prayer life? What does Saint Teresa mean by practicing recollection? What is the difference between ascetical and mystical prayer? Pull up a chair, pour yourself your favorite beverage, and let's learn to begin a contemplative prayer life.
