Chapter 4: Guidelines for Christian and monastic good practice (paragraphs 1-2)

Renounce your own desires and ambitions so as to be free to follow Christ.

(From para. 2 of Ch. 1 of Saint Benedict's Rule, trans. by Patrick Barry OSB, 1997.)

"Renouncing" is what I do when I say the mantra; liberty of spirit is what I begin to find.
