Gregory the Great
Translated from the Latin by Dom David Hurst
Number One-hundred-twenty-three of Cistercian Studies Series
“That Gregory himself reached the heights of mystical prayer and conceived of it as the ultimate aim of human existence cannot be denied. Everything that he thought or spoke or wrote leads to this goal. It is why he remains an effective guide for those who seek a religion that is meaningful for their lives. Not everyone can attain the summit which he did; all can aspire to some lesser achievement on the journey towards God if they follow his teaching and example.”
