Excerpt from The Culture of the Soul
The object the writer has in view in publishing this work is to help persons in the world to acquire Perfection.
The subjects of the present little volume are selected because of their importance and because of their suitability to persons in every state and condition of life.
While using every effort to make each treatise brief and plain, the author has, at the same time, striven to have his work as complete as possible and to omit nothing which is necessary or useful.
It may strike many that this little book is simplicity itself, and so it is, but the writer has given it years of thought and has so condensed and arranged the matter that while it embraces all that he considers of utility it is not too diffuse.
The Treatise on Prayer contains the substance of what the great Theologians and Spiritual writers have said on this all-important subject. The writer takes this opportunity of paying a tribute of praise to the memory of Fr. Rodriguez and Fr. Scaramelli, from whose well-known works many of the Chapters in this volume are taken. These two great spiritual writers are not likely to be excelled for all time.
