Wisdom from Fr. Donald Haggerty

Self-forgetfulness in prayer cannot be pursued as a deliberately cultivated attitude. We forget ourselves only as our attention no longer rests on self. This occurrence has one primary requirement and condition. It happens when a deeper quality of love turns us in a purer manner toward God.

— Fr. Donald Haggerty
from Contemplative Enigmas
