Book Description

Series: Dover Thrift Editions | Publication Date: December 17, 2007

Deeply spiritual and profoundly human, this 16th-century masterpiece is the work of a revered saint. Teresa of Avila visualized the soul as a many-faceted diamond, with the ecstasy of divine communion at its center. Her insights into prayer and meditation as the keys to fulfillment have inspired generations of readers.

Sharon L. Perry "Sharon" (Norco) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Interior Castle (Dover Thrift Editions) (Paperback)

This read is a must for anyone desiring a deeper prayer life and connection with God. Teresa, in her simple and most humble way, takes the reader through her trials, victories, and raptures in her relationship
with `His Majesty,' God. I enjoyed it immensely

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Interior Castle (Dover Thrift Editions) (Paperback)

This little book is powerful to read. Spiritually provocative, challenging, and insightful. I have read and reread chapters and could easily reread them yet again. Sister Teresa shares the spiritual journey though different levels of encountering God. She informs, encourages, warns even admonishs her readers as they proceed from one "mansion" to another.
