Excerpt from Manresa: Or the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius; For General Use
To attain so high an end, many obstacles must be over come, and many means made use of. Solitude; silence cessation of ordinary business and study; all reading foreign to the Exercises; the setting aside of all pre occupation as to the future, and all thoughts (although pious) which are not in harmony with the work of each day; recollection of the senses; restraint of the eyes, and the obscurity which favours it; confession of sins.
