Molinos And The Quietists - Paperback

""Molinos and the Quietists"" is a book written by Arthur Edward Waite, which delves into the life and teachings of Miguel de Molinos, a controversial Spanish mystic and theologian who founded the Quietist movement in the 17th century. The Quietists believed in the complete surrender of the self to God, allowing for a state of inner peace and stillness. However, Molinos' teachings were deemed heretical by the Catholic Church and he was eventually imprisoned and forced to recant. Waite's book explores the history and philosophy of the Quietist movement, as well as Molinos' life and teachings. It also includes translations of some of Molinos' writings, providing insight into his beliefs and practices. The book offers a fascinating look at a little-known aspect of Christian mysticism and the theological debates of the 17th century.THIS 20 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Lamps of Western Mysticism, by Arthur Edward Waite.
