The path to self-knowledge

Abstract

'And some seed fell into rich soil, and growing tall and strong, produced crop' (Mk 4:1-20). A saint's life is like the seed which found rich soil and produced a great harvest. Today we recall the seed which fell on very fertile soil indeed in a small village iron ically called Roccasecca (dry rock) near Aquino in Italy in 1225, the spiritual and intellectual fruit of which still nourishes the life of the Church.
