The Ways of Mental Prayer by Vitalis Lehodey is a comprehensive guide to spiritual growth through mental prayer. Written by Dom Lehodey, Abbot of Bricquebec, this book offers practical instructions and insights into the beginning stages of prayer, as well as the higher forms of prayer, including the prayer of union. Lehodey explains the advantages and joys of mental prayer, while also acknowledging the trials that may arise. He provides guidance on how to overcome these difficulties and offers practical advice on the methods of practicing this type of prayer. A key aspect of the book is its description of how ordinary prayer can lead to mystical prayer, a crucial step in the spiritual journey. This wise and learned guide is intended to help readers deepen their understanding of spiritual matters and cultivate divine intimacy.
