Interior Castle (part 6): Fifth Dwelling Place; New Life in Christ, Fragments of Heaven
Manage episode 364450618 series 3412092
As we continue the journey through the interior castle, we grow deeper and deeper in our intimacy and relationship with the Lord. The 5th Dwelling Place/Mansion can be understood to be the joining of hands in spiritual courtship with our Divine Spouse and is in anticipation of a deeper union to come in the remaining mansions. St. Teresa of Avila helps us understand this interior transformation by giving us the analogy of the silkworm turning into a butterfly. The degree of prayer called “the prayer of union” may be experienced in this dwelling place. This Carmelite Conversation discusses what the “prayer of union” is and the effects and benefits of this union. Additionally, we talk about the trials and sufferings also associated with the butterfly and its new life in Christ.
