The 16th Century Spanish Franciscan Friar, Francisco de Osuna, was the author of a book considered to be a great masterpiece and spiritual classic called: “The Third Spiritual Alphabet,” which profoundly influenced the great Discalced Carmelite, St. Teresa of Avila. She particularly focused on his description and practice of the prayer of recollection as a pathway to union with God.
In this podcast, Deacon Rusty Baldwin, discusses how this book influenced and formed St. Teresa of Avila. He also shares some of the maxims of Osuna regarding prayer. There is much to ponder here which will be helpful to anyone desiring to grow closer to God in prayer.
