5.0 out of 5 stars Classic wisdom, 25 Jul 2001
Father Dubay's presentation, refreshing in its "gospel truth" rather than trendy psychology or New Age gruel, is a brilliant exposition of ascetic theology, flavoured with deep insight and a "working knowledge" of true Christian charity.

Father Dubay works from extensive experience, but his book is always solidly grounded on the Scriptures and the writings of the classic spiritual guides. He does not omit the "unpopular" notions(obedience, informed conscience, etc.) , and, relating them to the visions of Vatican II, makes it clear that the Church has never denied their vitality.

The text is not without certain drawbacks. Though the "question and answer" format is functional, it can be rather trying when the questions do not match one's own. Certain references, particularly to "fidelity to the magisterium" which is especially emphasised, and to such matters as contraception or religious garb, may lead non-Catholics (and many RCs) to close the book prematurely. I would suggest that readers explore the contents in their entirety, for there is much rich material which should enrich anyone seeking to grow in the spiritual life.

This is the "genuine article" - true ascetic theology. It is not a handbook for a weekend read that sets one to believing s/he has reached the heights of sanctity in a few days. My regret is that it was not available twenty years earlier.
