{"product_id":"the-way-of-perfection","title":"The Way of Perfection","description":"This classic of the interior life and Christian mysticism remains as fresh and inspiring today as it was 400 years ago. Written by a prominent sixteenth-century Spanish mystic and Carmelite nun, it forms a practical guide to prayer that embraces readers with its warmth and accessibility.\nSt. Teresa of Avila's detailed directions on the achievement of spiritual perfection designate three essentials — fraternal love, detachment from material things, and true humility. She discusses a variety of maxims related to the practice of prayer and concludes with a thought-provoking commentary on the Lord's Prayer. A work of sublime mystical beauty, The Way of Perfection is above all a treatise of utter simplicity that offers lucid instruction to all seekers of a more meaningful way of life.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0486484513\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0486484513.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Avila, St. Teresa of|Peers, E.
