Ezek a lapok a könyv olvasása során készített jegyzeteimet tartalmazzák, amelyek ugyan tematikusan követik a könyv szövegét, többnyire azonban a számomra fontos részleteket emelik ki és nem adják feltétlenül az adott rész szisztematikus és részletes ismertetését. Az egész inkább csak azt a célt szolgálja, hogy kedvet csináljon másoknak is az eredeti szöveg olvasásához.
PREFACE - ElõszóAmellett érvel, hogy a belénköntött szemlélõdés a szentté válás normális útja, nem pedig valami rendkívüli, ritka kegyelem.
"We have thus found a confirmation of what we believe to be the truth about the infused contemplation of the mysteries of faith, which seems to us more and more to be in the normal way of sanctity and to be morally necessary to the full perfection of Christian life. ... the normal prelude of the vision of heaven, the infused contemplation of the mysteries of faith, is, by docility to the Holy Ghost, prayer, and the cross, accessible to all fervent interior souls."
"We have never said, moreover, as some have asserted we did, that "the state of infused contemplation, properly so called, is the only normal way to reach the perfection of charity." This infused contemplation, in fact, generally begins only with the passive purification of the senses, or, according to St. John of the Cross, at the beginning of the full illuminative way such as he describes it. Many souls are, therefore, in the normal way of sanctity before receiving infused contemplation, properly so called; but this contemplation, we say, is in the normal way of sanctity, at the summit of this way.”
A lábjegyzetében (2. lábjegyzet):
"We do not say that the state of infused contemplation is the only normal way of sanctity, but that it is at the summit of the normal way of sanctity. We wish to show in the present work that there is a degree of perfection and also of reparatory life which remains inaccessible as a characterized state without the passive purifications of the senses arid spirit, properly so called.” - Tehát tisztulás nélkül nincs misztika.
INTRODUCTION - Bevezetés
Az a könyv alapkérdése, hogy a belénköntött szemlélõdés és az ezen keresztül elért Istennel való egység különleges kegyelem vagy a szentté válás normális útja.
"Is the infused contemplation of the mysteries of faith and the union with God which results therefrom an intrinsically extraordinary grace, or is it, on the contrary, in the normal way of sanctity.”
