Advancing into Deep Mystical Prayer with Saint Teresa of Avila-Fifth Mansions Chapter 1 -TOG EP 133

Diving into Saint Teresa of Avila's Interior Castle, the Fifth Mansions - Chapter 1. The Fifth Mansion continues the spark from the prayer of union lightly experienced in the Fourth Mansions. In the Teresan nature of explaining mystical experiences, the spark intensifies in the Fifth Mansions. Saint Teresa has a hard time explaining this interior prayer experience. She says the soul is in a swoon, a dream-like state. She says the soul is beginning a serious relationship with the indwelling bridegroom Jesus Christ.
