Mental Prayer

St. Peter of Alcantara (1499 - 1562) wrote this famous Spanish classic to aid the pious listener in growing closer to God through prayer and mediation. In this work, he gives detailed meditations for each day of the week, morning and evening, on everything - from the suffering of Christ to the beauty of heaven. He also provides counsels on numerous topics related to prayer, such as spiritual dryness and drowsiness. The work was widely read in St. Peter's day, especially in Spain, where, for a time, it was the most popular devotion book outside of the Bible.

Mental prayer is a type of prayer that has traditionally been used by Catholics to draw closer to God by meditating on various aspects of the faith, such as heaven, the shortness of life, in addition to stories and parables in the Bible, and even simply contemplating on the face of Christ. In this short catechism, Fr. Joseph Simler gives an introduction to the practice in a simple question and answer format, moving from defining what mental prayer is, to dealing with difficulties such as distraction and aridity. A classic work that will help anybody grow closer to Christ.
