LECTIO:
Reading is careful study of [Sacred] Scripture,
with the soul’s [whole] attention:
MEDITATIO:
Meditation is the studious action of the mind to investigate hidden truth, led by one’s own reason.
ORATIO:
Prayer is the heart’s devoted attending to God, so that evil may be removed and good may be obtained.
CONTEMPLATIO:
Contemplation is the mind suspended -somehow elevated above itself - in God so that it tastes the joys of everlasting sweetness.
