This thread has me confused. You make it sound as if St. John of the Cross was actually alive to give Mother Theresa spiritual advise. Am I misunderstanding you?@WebersHome
Yes l agree with you to an extent but not the bit about designated spiritual counsellors who according to my extensive reading about Theresa, was able to chose for herself, who she would consult, and John of the Cross tried to correct her faulty thinking but she chose not to regard his advice.
One of the things that he repeatedly told her, was not to put much value on manifestations and subjective experience, but she did put too much value on them. I will try to locate the essay l wrote on the subject and JotC's quotations.
