Practice Dying ~
I went back and asked the Old Monk why I should try to practice dying. He said when we die we are in a state in which we have shed everything worldly. Only at that moment are we ready to receive God.
Sounds like the stripping that St. Francis managed when he left his father.
ReplyDeletePlato told his followers to practice dying but I don't know what he meant.
