Listen "Episode 6: Asceticism"
Episode Synopsis
Asceticism is a necessary part of the spiritual life. Saints John of the Cross and Teresa of Avila espouse an absolute asceticism of complete detachment and relentless mortification. This zealous ideal can seem daunting if removed from the ultimate goal of their ascetical practices: love of God and neighbor. In this episode, we discuss the practice of asceticism and its important place in the Carmelite tradition.http://www.icspublications.orghttp://www.discalcedcarmel.orghttp://ocdfriarsvocation.org
