 9  Unic,   5     |          here, I am speaking from experience of things that I have seen
10  Unic,   5     |        learning, spirituality and experience, and this decision was then

17  Unic,   9     |          think anyone who had not experience of it would believe it.
18  Unic,   9     |           have learned, by my own experience and by that of others, that
19  Unic,  15     |         very great thing. Such an experience uplifts the soul more than
20  Unic,  15     |          will see what profit you experience in your souls. For it is
21  Unic,  16     |         as I am judging by my own experience, but I have been striving
22  Unic,  18     |           suppose that they never experience anything else. But I can

24  Unic,  19     |           How the soul thirsts to experience this thirst! For it knows
25  Unic,  19     |          anyone who attains to an experience of this fierce thirst to
26  Unic,  20     |        for I have found it out by experience, how very bad this is for
27  Unic,  23     |        resolute souls, knowing by experience that they inflict great
28  Unic,  23     |          This I know very well by experience and so I have been able
29  Unic,  23     |          they have not learned by experience of the Lord's goodness,
30  Unic,  23     |          s goodness, know it from experience.~
31  Unic,  25     |           you who, as I say, have experience of supernatural prayer should
32  Unic,  26     |            for I am speaking from experience. You will find it very helpful
33  Unic,  28     |         but to try to learn it by experience, for it is one of the best
34  Unic,  28     |     anyone will recognize who has experience of them. It is as if the
35  Unic,  30     |    contemplation, which those who experience it call the Prayer of Quiet;
36  Unic,  31     |     several counsels to those who experience it. This CHAPTER is very
37  Unic,  31     |        joy and delight which they experience that they can think of nothing
38  Unic,  31     |           if one has not had long experience of it. But any of you who
39  Unic,  31     |     ourselves -- I mean those who experience this state -- full of this
40  Unic,  31(109)|          be: "who knew it well by experience."~
41  Unic,  31     |         of all, when such persons experience this joy, without knowing
42  Unic,  31     |       Perhaps this is only my own experience and other people do not
43  Unic,  31     |        reason. Anyone who has had experience of this kind of prayer will

45  Unic,  31     |         if you have only a little experience of it you will understand
46  Unic,  32     |        For I have proved, by long experience, how much I gain by leaving
47  Unic,  36     |      having already discovered by experience what great benefits the
48  Unic,  36     |        for Himself souls of great experience.~
49  Unic,  38     |       Christ -- namely, those who experience contemplation and practise
50  Unic,  38     |          great deal about it from experience, so I can describe it to
51  Unic,  39     |      great temptation. I have had experience of this, so I know it is
52  Unic,  39     |           this because I have had experience of the matter and have sometimes
53  Unic,  40     |           other to those who have experience of both!~
