This book is NOT the original Interior Castle of St. Teresa of Avila. It is a modern translation written to remove all "religious dogma". Much of it is not even translation, it is re-writing. It is a new-age, feel-good attempt to have one's cake and eat it, too. The arrogance is astounding.

If you are a Catholic or other person looking to read the actual writing of St. Teresa of Avila, avoid this (translation by Mirabai Starr) like the plague.

Good translation, but I'm not into mysticism, particular that used by feminist advocates.
