On the Religious Life

What are religious? What does the Lord ask of them? What should their interior attitude be to poverty, chastity, obedience, and to the everyday demands of life in a community?

Dom Prosper Gueranger’s monastic wisdom is offered to religious, clergy, and laity as an insight into the contemplative monastic life and as a primer for the spiritual life of every Christian.

This translation from the French original includes an extensive introduction to the monastic doctrina of Dom Gueranger by a Benedictine nun of St Cecilia’s Abbey, Ryde.
