Inspired by Pope John Paul II’s Apostolic Letter on "The Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary", this book gives instructions on how to pray the rosary for beginners to more advanced so that it becomes a “pathway to contemplation”. “How to Pray the Rosary as a Pathway to Contemplation” contains Scripture passages and beautiful art to use as an aid in meditating on the twenty mysteries of the rosary, which are Gospel events from the lives of Jesus and Mary. This book also explains: • how to say the vocal prayers of the rosary • how to meditate on the mysteries • how to pray the rosary in a way to remain receptive to the highest form of prayer which is contemplation. • how to recognize the transition from meditation to contemplation from the teachings of St. John of the Cross and St. Teresa of Avila • insights on prayer and the spiritual life from Carmelite spirituality, the Bible and the writings of the Saints. • tips on saying the rosary as a family • how the rosary is a Biblical prayer The book also has a short introduction by Fr. Donald Kinney, OCD, Rector of the Carmelite House of Studies in Mount Angel, Oregon.

This review is from: How to Pray the Rosary as a Pathway to Contemplation (Paperback)
That being said, this is a beautiful, beautiful book. The articles are thought-provoking, and the Scriptures and artwork are reverent, deep, and truly inspiring. This book fulfills the promise of its title, opening the gate to the Rose Garden of contemplation and union with God by use of the beads.

This review is from: How to Pray the Rosary as a Pathway to Contemplation (Paperback)
I am not a catholic, but the rosary has fascinated me for a long time. Friends have given me a basic idea of what it is about, but not the actual steps of doing it.It helps you meditate on the glory of God and all that he has done for us
