Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the idea of the religious state. Far from merely exploring rules and obligations, the author's aim is to reveal the religious state as a pathway to perfection. But the perfection in question isn't some unattainable, abstract ideal. It's a journey towards a profound and genuine union with God, fueled by charity and realized, step by step, through voluntary poverty, chastity, and obedience. While the author places great emphasis on these vows and their embodiment in religious life, they don't constitute the sole focus. The author also unpacks the concept of counsels and their distinction from precepts, ultimately highlighting their origin in the sacredness of faith. Furthermore, the author examines the distinct yet crucial roles of the contemplative and active spiritual lives, and the importance of purity of heart and the avoidance of sin in the pursuit of perfection. By blending insights from Scripture and tradition, this book provides an accessible, comprehensive guide to the religious life, making it a valuable resource for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of this sacred vocation.
