Synopsis

In this compact book, the famous Thomist, Fr. Garrigou-Lagrange, sets forth the classic Catholic traditions on the spiritual life as the full flowering of Sanctifying Grace in the soul. He explains the three stages of the spiritual life -the Purgative Way, the Illuminative Way, and the Unitive Way - showing the transitions or conversions from one period to another. How can one become a saint without knowing the way - the pitfalls, common mistakes, and experience of Saints who have gone before?
