Sixth Mansions Chapter 1 Part 2 – The Interior Castle by St. Teresa of Avila – Going Deeper in Prayer - TOG EP 150

We're exploring the Interior Castle, Sixth Mansions Chapter 1, in part 2 of this two-part podcast on stages of mystical prayer life. Saint Teresa explains the importance of the prayer stage of the Sixth Mansions. She uses the analogy of a spiritual engagement to describe the depths of the relationship of our heart and soul to Jesus. And of course, this deep interior prayer relationship is accompanied by trials. She outlines the state of the soul in the Sixth Mansions when dealing with spiritual directors, and the intolerable torment the soul can experience in trials as Jesus refines the soul.
