Carmelite Tradition
The interior life as taught by Carmel — friendship with God in the desert of prayer, the climb of Mount Carmel, the dark night that purifies.
Carmel is the school of Christian friendship with God. Its great teachers — Teresa of Ávila, John of the Cross, Thérèse of Lisieux, Elizabeth of the Trinity — all return to the same center: the soul kept faithful to mental prayer, until the prayer becomes the soul's home and the Trinity's dwelling. Most of this collection is still being assembled; the items below are the start.
Daily Meditation
Divine Intimacy — Fr. Gabriel of St. Mary Magdalen's classic year-long course of mental prayer, structured by the liturgical year — and the Teresian method it was written to serve.
St. Teresa of Ávila
The reformer of Carmel and Doctor of Prayer.
St. Thérèse of Lisieux
The Little Flower and Doctor of the Little Way.
The Brown Scapular
The habit of Carmel given to the laity — its enrollment, the Promise, and the Mount Carmel novena.
