Hey @silicasun.bsky.social and @spinoza-nl.bsky.social — please check out my new essay in Spinozablue #spinoza #teresaofavila #tech #distraction
About 75 years before Spinoza described "the intellectual love of God," Teresa of Ávila had the same idea. To find this love takes concentration. But that's not easy in our digital age. Read more in my essay: "Love that Favors the Concentrated Mind," in Spinozablue: spinozablue.com/new-essay-by...

🙏 "Lord, give me some means by which I can put up with this life!" St. Teresa of Avila's plea resonates with anyone feeling overwhelmed. Even saints understood life's struggles.

Rapture in the Vernacular
In her poetry, St. Teresa of Ávila insisted on using the vernacular to explain transcendent realities.

“I saw in his hand a long spear of gold, and at the iron's point there seemed to be a little fire. He appeared to me to be thrusting it at times into my heart, and to pierce my very entrails; when he drew it out, he seemed to draw them out also, and to leave me all on fire”

And laughter came from every brick in the street
and from every pore
in the sky.
After a night of prayer, He
changed my life when
He sang,
'Enjoy Me.'
–Teresa of Ávila, "Laughter Came from Every Brick"
