About this listen

In Letter to a Religious, Simone Weil addresses the complexities of religious belief and the search for divine truth. Written during a period of intense personal reflection, the book captures Weil's unique ability to intertwine philosophical rigor with spiritual insight. Her words resonate with both believers and skeptics alike, challenging readers to reconsider their understanding of faith, grace, and the role of religion in modern life.

"...When I read the Catechism of the Council of Trent, it seems to me that I have nothing in common with the religion it expounds. When I read the New Testament, the mystics, the liturgy, when I see the Mass celebrated, I feel with a kind of certainty that this faith is mine, or more exactly would be mine without the distance put between it and me by my imperfection. It makes for a painful spiritual situation. I'd like to make it clearer, not less painful. Any punishment is acceptable in clarity”.
