Самой значительной книгой Терезы стал «Внутренний замок». В этом мистическом трактате она изображает душу как замок с многочисленными комнатами, в центре которого находится Христос. Тот, кто преуспеет в жизни во Христе и в молитве, переходит из одной обители в другую, пока не пройдет, наконец, в самую сокровенную комнату. При этом каждому переходу из обители в обитель соответствует своя особая молитва.

Of all of Teresa of Avila's works, The Way of Perfection is the most easily understood. Written at the height of the controversy surrounding the reforms Teresa instituted in the Carmelite order, it instructed the nuns in the practice of prayer. Teresa discusses the three essentials of a prayer-filled life -- fraternal love, detachment from material things, and true humility. Her counsels on these are the fruit of her practical experience. The book develops these ideas and takes up directly the matters of prayer and contemplation. Teresa gives various maxims for the practice of prayer and concludes the book with her masterful and impassioned version of the Lord's Prayer. "How is it that Thou canst give us so much with Thy first word?" she says of the "Our" at the beginning of that prayer.

The simple and practical nature of this mystical classic will appeal to all who seek a life of wholeness.

She was the last person anyone would have expected to become a nun, yet she became one of the most celebrated nuns of all time. She was a brilliant administrator when such vocations were virtually closed to women. And above all, she combined an astonishing proclivity for ecstatic union with God with down-to-earth practicality and good humor. Teresa of Ávila (1515–1582) is one of the most beloved of the Catholic saints. During the era of the Spanish Inquisition, Teresa wrote an account of the mystical experiences for which she had become famous. The result was this book—one of the great classics of spiritual autobiography. With this fresh,…

While I was beseeching Our Lord today…I began to think of the soul as if it were a castle made of a single diamond or of very clear crystal, in which there are many rooms, just as in Heaven there are many mansions. — St. Teresa of AvilaA masterpiece of spiritual literature, this sixteenth-century work was inspired by a mystical vision that came upon the revered St. Teresa of Avila, one of the most gifted and beloved religious figures in history. St. Teresa's vision was of a luminous crystal castle composed of seven chambers, or «mansions,» each representing a different stage in the development of the soul.In her most important and widely read book, St. Teresa describes how, upon entering the castle through prayer and meditation, the human spirit experiences humility, detachment, suffering, and, ultimately, self-knowledge, as it roams from room to room. As the soul progresses further toward the center of the castle, it comes closer to achieving ineffable and perfect peace, and, finally, a divine communion with God. A set of rare and beautiful teachings for people of all faiths desirous of divine guidance, this meticulous modern translation by E. Allison Peers breathes contemporary life into a religious classic.

Su fuerte personalidad, su protagonismo, su fina iron?a, convierten sus obras, escritas por mandato de sus confesores, en una fuente de primer orden, un observatorio excepcional, para ver al vivo numerosas realidades de aquella Espa?a de la segunda mitad del siglo XVI.

This book presents a compilation of the greatest works on spiritual development and life by St. Theresa of Avilla. As a reformer of the church doctrines, Theresa rethought the notion of spiritual development and created her own methodic of contemplative life that should lead to spiritual perfection. As a creator of the new order, she created these works to teach her followers of her methods, which consisted of meditation, spiritual quiet, the daily prayer, which should eventually lead to spiritual unity with the Creator. Each of the presented books had a significant impact on the development of Christian thought and belonged to the most important achievements of the Spanish literary heritage. This edition includes: "The Interior Castle" – is a guide to spiritual development through service and prayer. It is one of the leading books in the oeuvre of Saint Therese of Avilla and one of the most famous works in Spanish literature. The book was inspired by Theresa's vision of a soul as a diamond in the shape of a castle with seven mansions. She interpreted this dream as the spiritual journey through seven stages, after which a soul is united with God. "Way of Perfection" – is a spiritual instruction given by Theresa of Avila to the nuns of her new Order. She believed that spiritual perfection could be attained by overcoming four stages of prayer: meditation, quiet, repose of soul, and perfect union with God. According to Theresa, the last stage of spiritual development can often be equated to rapture. "The Life of St. Theresa of Avila" – In this book, she gives a warm and accessible account of her life, from childhood to the conflicts and crises she had, to her decision to enter a prayer life and become a spiritual leader and a passionate reformer of the church doctrines. Here, she talks about her education in sixteenth-century Spain, physical afflictions, and spiritual crises which led to visions and mystical encounters. She also gives lyrical descriptions of the ecstatic feelings she experienced during her raptures. Alongside Don Quixote, this book is a treasure of Spanish prose and one of the most outstanding achievements of the world's literature.

Teresa von Avila gilt als die erste spanische Frau, die in die Literaturgeschichte Eingang gefunden hat, wo sie bis heute einen herausragenden Platz einnimmt. Die F?lle und Tiefe ihrer mystischen Erfahrung hat die selbstbewusste Frau zu einer offiziell anerkannten Lehrerin der Kirche gemacht. Man nennt sie dar?ber hinaus eine Kronzeugin der feministischen Theologie. Die von Gerhard Wehr dargebotenen und kommentierten Texte stammen aus ihren Hauptwerken, der Lebensbeschreibung, dem Weg der Vollkommenheit und dem mystischen Standardwerk, der Seelenburg.
"Die Selbsterkenntnis ist eine so wichtige Sache, dass ich w?nschte, ihr m?chtet niemals darin ermatten, so hoch ihr auch in den Himmeln emporgestiegen sein m?gt."
Am 28. M?rz 1515 im kastilischen Avila als Teresa S?nchez de Cepeda y Ahumada geboren, entdeckte die sp?tere Karmelitin, Mystikerin, Kirchenlehrerin und Heilige schon als junges M?dchen ihren Drang nach spiritueller Erfahrung. 1536 tritt sie in den «Karmel von der Menschwerdung» in Avila ein und nimmt den Ordensnamen Teresa de Jesus an. Nachdem sie nach beinahe t?dlich endender Krankheit in Auseinandersetzung mit dem sogenannten dritten Teil des spirituellen Alphabets des Franziskanerpaters Francisco de Osuna den Leitfaden f?r ihren eigenen inneren Gebetsweg gefunden hat, hilft ihr 1554 ein Schl?sselerlebnis, sich endg?ltig f?r das kontemplative Leben zu entscheiden. Sie gr?ndet in Avila das «Kloster der Unbeschuhten Karmelitinnen». Dieser Gr?ndung folgen 16 weitere, im Zusammenschluss mit dem Unbeschuhten Karmeliten Johannes vom Kreuz insgesamt 32. Teresa von Avila stirbt am 4. Oktober 1582 im Kloster von Alba de Tormes bei Salamanca.

Святая Тереза Авильская, монахиня Ордена кармелиток, на протяжении трех лет страдала тяжелой болезнью - ее ноги были парализованы. Но после таких испытаний жизнь Терезы наполнилась необычайной жаждой к Богу и молитве, жаждой, которая до сих пор побуждает людей переосмыслить свое духовное состояние.
Произведение "Жизнь в молитве" - это призыв к нашим сердцам через молитву познать Господа глубже. "В таком молитвенном состоянии душа осознает, что Бог проводит свою работу без какого-либо давления на разум. Как замечательно видеть Господа таким добрым Садовником души!"
Работы Терезы Авильской взывают к сердцам христиан живыми метафорами, тонко и непринужденно просвещая путь души. Произведения этой служительницы Божьей, как и вся ее жизнь, подтверждают, что каждый из нас может иметь Жизнь в молитве.

Born in the Castilian town of Avila in 1515, Teresa entered the Carmelite convent of the Incarnation when she was twenty-one. Tormented by illness, doubts and self-recrimination, she gradually came to recognize the power of prayer and contemplation - her spiritual enlightenment was intensified by many visions and mystical experiences, including the piercing of her heart by a spear of divine love. She went on to found seventeen Carmelite monasteries throughout Spain. Teresa always denied her own saintliness, however, saying in a letter: 'There is no suggestion of that nonsense about my supposed sanctity'. This frank account is one of the…
