"A Short Method of Prayer" by Jeanne Marie Bouvier de la Motte Guyon is a spiritual guide written in the late 17th century. It presents a practical approach to prayer aimed at both beginners and those seeking a deeper relationship with God. The book offers a concise method for prayer that emphasizes simplicity and sincerity, inviting readers to cultivate a heartfelt connection with the divine. In this work, Guyon outlines various degrees of prayer, each progressively leading to a more profound experience of God’s presence. The first chapters discuss the nature of prayer, the importance of abandonment to God, and the different ways individuals can engage in meaningful communication with the divine. As readers progress, they are introduced to concepts such as self-examination, the necessity of inner silence, and the significant role of suffering in spiritual growth. Ultimately, Guyon encourages readers to seek a continual, intuitive connection with God, which transforms their relationship with Him into one of love and devotion, leading to spiritual union. The book serves as an accessible resource for those seeking to deepen their spiritual practice through prayer.
