St Teresa of Ávila (March 28, 1515 - October 4, 1582) was a prominent Carmelite nun and Spanish mystic. St Teresa had many mystical experiences she tried to reflect in poems. She took an active role in the Carmelite order and was later canonised a saint by the Roman Catholic church.

Me too..but very much looking forward to listening later, the right time of day will come when it comes ☺️
This is so simple! So perfectly beautiful!
Bless you friend.namaste.😇❤️
Lovely relaxing voice. God bless you. 😊
Through God's grace, I stumbled across your page. No coincidence, purely guided, a true Blessing, it is.🙏 Thank you and God Bless.💛
St. Theresa of Avila, please pray for me that I may quiet my inner voice and my advance to my soul to ever unite myself with Jesus, God the Father, and the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit will take you to your higher place where you'd can hear the Lord. It works.
May the Prince of peace find you in this troubled world we are facing.
He brings clarity in this darkness.
All our trouble comes to us, from not having our eyes fixed upon the divine 🙏
Pray without ceasing. Eyes fixed on the Divine.
St. Teresa of Avila, pray for us. Amen.
What a blessing to have discovered this beautiful channel at this moment. Saint Teresa of Avila has been my guide in my prayers and Saint John of the Cross. Thank you ! and blessings! 🙏🏻
Be still and know that I am God .
Thank you. This was a perfect explanation of how to meditate! Be still and know that I am God.
"Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him and he with Me" (Revelation 3:20)
Absolutely beautiful!!! Not religious at all, lean toward spiritual, this resonates on a core level - Much gratitude!
no matter the choice of faith, this is what matters .... silence and surrender
Our Lord, help me. Thans you God
This was a treasure, and I am so grateful that you do not allow commercials to interrupt the meditation. It was God's Grace that allowed me to get so close to him.
Yes. That is very nice.
listening to this while trying to quiet my anxiety and know that there is help in all areas of life...and this too shall pass. Seeing my bank account in red today shook my whole self and wonder how did this happen. I need this today to help my spirit for too much thinking. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
I need this every day ✝️
Help my mind slow down and be at peace . I ask this in the name of Jesus Christ amen
Focus on your breath dear one, calm down stay in the moment. Past and future might create desire/ suffering/anxtiey. Often things of the past are suffered more in imagination throughout time. Let not the arrow of yesterday keep hitting you till eternity.
Dont insult consciousness by forcing it to take identity or try to trap it in a box.
Amen
@@user-vk5ws3jl1labsolutely beautiful! Thank you.
Only in a humble heart can the supernatural flourish. One’s own will has no part in this. 🙏
hiw powerful. i was raised catholic, and left the religion when i could. i have had 3 major consciousness spontaneous awakenings. i am very drawn to archangels & the imp mystics from my religion of origin. and st teresa really speaks of THE LOVING PRESENCE, no matter how wwe label that. blessings
yes I can totally relate
Do explore Advaita Vedhanta and you will be pleasantly enhanced! To personalize a religion as your own you only limit yourself! All belongs to the same One source.
Fear as Teresa says is the culprit. Be vigilant. See it in all its seductive guises. It is pernicious. Anything you think you are or take yourself to be is not you. Reject all and you will come to realize what you are not. What you are can never be known.
My late wife and I went to Avila a couple of times. It appeared to have some significance for us. This is beyond catholicism and far above "religion". God bless you for posting this.
Catholicism is about believing in the seen and unseen; this involves tuning our lives with the spiritual realm. For example, you wouldn’t want to tell others that they need treatment without acknowledging their use of ‘tools’ as they live a life of recovery.
I’m so very sorry for the loss with of your wife! Peace be you!!
My sincerest condolences for your loss 🙏🏼
I'm so sorry for your loss. Bless you.
It is Jesus Himself, not any denomination, who ties everything together. That is the true sense of the word 'religion '. He came to establish a relationship, to restore, the rest follows but means nothing without the relationship.
“Come Lord Jesus. Come soon. Make all things new.” Our Blessed Mother gave me this prayer several years ago. I pray it often, but I should pray it even more now when we are facing terrible tribulations.
O Mary Conceived Without Sin, Pray For Us Who Have Recourse To You!
❤Ave Maria❤️
Nada te turbe, nada te espante todo se pasa,
Dios no se muda, la paciencia todo lo alcanza,
quien a Dios tiene nada le falta sólo Dios basta.
Santa Teresa de Jesús
Gracias. Beautiful reminder for all souls. Dios te bendiga
St Theresa pray for us, help us at this situation. Amen
To know nothing is to know everything 🙏
Having studied St Teresa of Avila, in Avila Spain for few months, i can not but wonder that you are speaking about St Teresa's Prayer of Quiet! Amazing. Thanks you sis. keep showing the path to many souls!
Thank you and all who listen. This is so helpful in turning off the mind, laying down all thought, surrendering to the Infinite.
❤❤❤
😢 O Lord Jesus Christ, Holy Mother of God help us miserable sinners to be kinder to one another, please
O brothers and sisters,
I thank you for being here with me in this collective conscious awakening of God's Grace.
Thank you Sister Jayasara,
Raphael Joachim 💖
Please pray for our family.
State of quiet = presence = prayer = mediation = the now
Learning about the prayer of quiet by practicing the prayer of quiet. Really enjoyed this.
"Meditate upon what is real and what is not." ♾️🙏
Thy will, not mine, Lord. You direct my prayer.
Thank you so much for sharing this peaceful and calming meditation.
To the grace of God I exist breathe live and do everything.
Your voice sounds like it has existed since before time began and after it ends, simultaneously. it’s so mysterious. ❤❤❤❤
Blessed mother thank you
🙏" All may reach this point through the goodness of God." 💒✝️🛐Amen.

Thank you for this wonderful wonderful channel - especially these teachings of the Christian Mystics 🙏 ❤
Be still and know that I am ….. ❤
I never got the pinned comment until I put the video on for one second. Then I had to switch it off immediately because I'm sitting on a train on my way home and I almost went into instant meditation seeing and feeling the powerful blue Aura of our Saint and Mother Theersa. NOW I GET IT.❤🎉🎉❤
My confirmation saint!! I had no idea of this prayer. Love and gratitude to be able to show my sweet daughter this...
Love St Theresa of Avila 🙏
coming back to the center . 🙏🌹
I'm so glad that I found this prayer It has explain es so much for me
St.Teresa of Avila,pray for us.Guide us always.
Thank You for the Prayer of Quiet, please always be in our hearts.
What a delightful a recommendation, wow, how peaceful. The path towards the soul first then maybe towards heaven. Heaven seems so far away. I pray for my life to turn around.
"Whoever calls on the name of the Lord (Jesus Christ ) will be saved.." "If any man be in Christ he is a new creation..Old things are passed away and all things are become new.." ( Just say from your heart with your words..out loud.."Lord Jesus please save me and be my Lord..I give you my life today..Please take it an do with it, as you will..Thank you for hearing and answering me now..
What a most adequate, beautiful voice to express these inspiring and inspired words!... Truly moving.😇
Thank you. Been searching for this - to know God and who am I in his scheme.
I have been listening to your prayers but my mind wonders off now and then please pray for me that I get closer to our Lord
Me too
Your wondering mind is just part of the meditation process. With time, it will settle. Observe the thoughts and let them go. Keep meditating
Thank You 🙏🕊️✨
Your voice reading the words of masters reminds me of a kaleidoscope. I loved those when I was a kid... and I love these now.
Thank you from all of us from around the world... Things
don't feel quite as shaky when you're here, Sister.

So wonderful to listen to... St. Teresa of Avila's words. Thank you and best wishes.
I haven't listened to it yet, but already love it😌
Music is always spot on , so are the pictures, and the voice of the devine itself. What is not to like 😉
😅 I love everything she does!❤
Me too
Haha, love this comment, it could have been my words.
Me too ❤
Always , about Love . In your voice , Love is there … thank you …
wow...I am so happy to hear how these words resonate with Masters from other traditions and creeds. Feks. Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, Ramana Maharshi and Ananda Mayi ma
Because God is One and we are It. There is nothing but God…Much Love❤
Powerful! Thank you.
Thank you for being here sister 🙇♀️ ❤
Amazing! Truly remarkable ❤
your sublime voice of calm helps me immediately drop into my soul; every time. Thank you so much x
Exquisite. Thank you.
I take refuge in the Perfectly Enlightened One of Immeasurable Light and Life.
This is the translation of the Pure Land Buddhist mantra Namo Amitabha Buddha, Namu Amida Butsu in Japanese. But we can just as easily see the Christian Godhead, the Holy Trinity, as the Perfectly Enlightened One of Immeasurable Light and Life.
The teachings of St. Teresa of Avila remind me much of those of Jodo Shinshu (Japanese True Pure Land Buddhism).
May the teachings of Christian mystics be the place where Western believers who find peace and wisdom in the teachings of Buddhism reconnect with their Christian heritage and recognize the True Word was there all along, as well.
Thank you again and again.💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Oh my ........ I have not words. Thank you for this sharing.
🍃🍁🧡🙏🏻🧡🍁🍃
Utterly beautiful divine words. And the reading and music are perfect.
Wonderful. I'm an interfaith progressive Christian, who began by finding Unitarian Universalist interfaith and scholar H Smith, Buddhism, the 12 step groups, and the Quaker Friends. Wonderful to hear St Theresa of Avila's spiritual insights. I've also read that she inspired some of Descartes' work, on top of his Jesuit ed. Thank you for this!
Thank you for this sublime and Divine treasure.
Your channel is the best presenter of the best content there is, and your sacred offerings are more refined, meaningful, well-received, impacting, and cherished than even a small fragment of our species will ever acknowledge. I honor you for sharing as you do, Samaneri Jayasāra, and I revere your good work. Namaste, Aloha, and Mālama pono.
I herewith pray that our entire species soon will be able to receive all the blessings we need to re-open ourselves to the rightful humble place we have on this beautiful planet... So be it... 💗
eloquent. so true. may we all continue to connect & raise the vibration on this planet. we are stronger together. blessings. fyi. i am in eugene or. originally from calgary,ab,canada.
Thank you so much for this.
Sounds like the music from the tilma of Guadalupe, very peaceful 😊
Gloria in Excelsis Deo! 🙏🌹😇
Thanks for the direct helpful sharing gratitude for this, may God's love heal the world from the illusionist
Thank you again and again for your offerings❤️🙏
🙏🏼🌸dear Sister when I listen your Christian readings it feels so penetrating the Heart
Thank you
🙏❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you absolutely beautiful - Divine Grace xx
"Thou shalt love the Lord your God with all your heart..all your soul..all your MIND..and all your strength.." (Mark 12: 30 ) So we can be peaceful, and still use our minds..It's not 'thinking' that creates the problems..It's "What" we choose to think about that does.. "Whatsoever things are true and honest, just, pure and lovely; Whatever things are of good report..if there be any virtue and be any praise..think on these things.." (Philipians 4: 8 )
Thank you Thank you Thank you, peace, grace and love to all beings of the universes
Thank you...❤...
Amen ❤🙏
Thank you for this beautiful video….it brought to me the most beautiful understanding and the stark disrespect and dismissal of the Beautiful God within ….and brings me face to face with an entity of my being that functions hopelessly and wrongly without this acknowledgement or illumination 🙏
Amen 🙏🙏🌷🌹😘
❤so love this
Thank you
Thank you so much ❤
The grace of the moment is something that Teresa of Avila questions the efficacy of
❤ I need these 🙇♀️
