Summary

Dialogue is a pedagogic form much used in the early times of Christianity. By means of questions and answers, the disciple went on entering into the spiritual teacher's wisdom. Picking up this form so loved of the early desert Fathers, Brother Mario de Cristo Salvador presents us the spiritual journey of a young novice, in which each of us who ask questions and clarify doubts with a spiritual teacher with the desire of beginning, entering and ascending in the contemplative path, are represented,. Their conversations deal with a variety topics that assault those who begin on the spiritual path: how to begin to pray, how to overcome distractions, what is the role of asceticism in spiritual life, what to do with doubts on one's own vocation and about faith, etc. an entire varied group of explanations that give peace to the beginner and encourage one who has already passed the first dwellings of the interior castle, in the expression of St. Teresa. This book can be a very effective help and an incentive for all those who don't dare to begin the path to prayer or, once begun, they doubt if to continue on it, before the difficulties that present themselves.
