To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It wills what He wills, because He wills it. It says in union with its Lord, not only, "Thy will be done," but ''Not my will but Thine." We vohmtarily mortify our bodies by ruling our appetites. All that God has made is good and is to be used. Sin is unregulated desire, and the misuse of creatures. While we may use all things given for the glory of God, we may deny ourselves in some, and so make our offering to Him. But our voluntary mortifications, however, are only profitable and meritorious ...when done in charity. The erroneous Indian philosophy, which regards matter as evil, practises asceticism to free the soul from it. The Christian practises self-denial in order to be more conformed to his Lord and be united by love to Him. The true-hearted bride desires to share in the life of her spouse and es- teems it a privilege to share His hardships with Him. There are various ways by which we may disci- pline ourselves— by abstraction, solitude, silence, and by preserving tranquility of mind.
