Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Rambler, Vol. 6: A Catholic Journal and Review When God deigns to bless the children of Adam with the reinvigorating influence of some great religious institution, He selects a chosen soul for the instrument of His work. He draws him apart from men and from the influences which their spirit might exercise upon him. Through secret attractions, He brings him to some secluded place, after his time to become for ever famous, as having been divinely prepared for the scene of his heavenly training. Such chosen scenes are as distinct in their features from common nature as are the men who give them their celebrity. They are God´s own schools, and have nothing in common with the schools of human teaching. There, amidst solitary grandeurs, God secretly nourishes the spirit of the chosen man with the graces necessary for his enterprise, of the great results of which he is probably himself to a great extent unconscious. Such a school was Subiaco, and such a disciple of God´s own training was St. Benedict. What Sinai was to Moses, and Horeb to Elias, and the desert by Jordan to the Baptist, and Patmos to St. John, - such was the Thebaid to St. Antony, the Chartreuse to St. Bruno, Averno to St. Francis, the Cave of Montserrat to St. Ignatius, and Subiaco to St. Benedict. It is to no ordinary scene, then, that the pilgrim, and those who are in his company, are directing their steps.
