Some readers have asked about how to develop the virtues. I have parsed out some of Garrigou-Lagrange's advice in the perfection series. One can also use the labels of virtues.
There is another author I can highly recommend, but his book is difficult to find. The book is The Practice of Christian and Religious Perfection, published at Seville, 1609 by Father Alphonsus Rodriguez. Those of you who were following me after my time in the monastery on Cobh will remember me mentioning him.
I only have access to Vol II at this time, which I am borrowing, but I highly recommend the three volumes which was written not only for clergy, but for the laity.
The beauty of Rodriguez' approach is his practicality. I hope you can find it. There is a kindle book for Vols. I and II, I think. Thanks to readers for the links.
