Commentary on the Treatise on the True Devotion to the Blessed Virgin

"The "Commentary on the Treatise on the True Devotion" points out everything the reader must know or remember in order to penetrate completely the immortal masterpiece of St. Louis-Marie Grignion de Montfort. It is an essential book for whoever desires to learn the Perfect Devotion." (The Montfort Fathers)

Everyone who's read St. Louis de Montfort's writings knows he shared this profound insight

"Predestinate soul, here is a secret the Most High has taught me, which I have not been able to find in any book, old or new. I confide it to you, by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit" ("The Secret of Mary", \#1).

And when you know this secret, he assures you

"This devotion is an easy, short, perfect, and secure way of arriving at union with Our Lord, in which the perfection of a Christian consists" ("True Devotion to Mary", \#152).

In fact, you'll make progress with such head-spinning speed that he promises you what no other Saint ever promised

"By this practice, faithfully observed, you will give Jesus more glory in a month than by any other practice, however difficult, in many years" (True Devotion, \#222).

Unfortunately, he said most people never achieve this

"I have found many people who, with admirable zeal, have adopted the exterior practices of this holy slavery of Jesus and Mary, but I have found only a few who have accepted its interior spirit, and still fewer who have persevered in it" (Secret, \#44).

Part of the reason for that is because he admitted he left a lot of things out

"I have now said many things about the Most Holy Virgin; but I have many more to say, and there are infinitely more which I shall omit, whether from ignorance, inability, or want of time, in the design which I have to form a true client of Mary, and a true disciple of Jesus Christ" (True Devotion, \#111).

Why This Book Will Help You

The wonderful news for you is that this extensive Commentary fills in the gaps beautifully.

That's why the Montfort Fathers assure you that it

"furnishes to readers everything they must know in order to understand and appreciate the doctrine of Bl. Louis-Marie de Montfort."

And the Vatican's Substitute Secretary of State, Giovanni Battista Montini (the future Pope St. Paul VI), wrote to Fr. Plessis, praising this Commentary as "completely penetrated with the Marian piety which animated Bl. Grignion de Montfort."

FACT: This is the only complete and authoritative Commentary ever written about St. Louis' Marian spirituality. It's almost 500 pages of rich insights!

St. Louis assures you that this devotion

"is a path trodden by Jesus Christ, the Incarnate Wisdom, our sole Head" (True Devotion, \#168).

When Jesus is the Model of living this devotion to Mary, it's something to enthusiastically embrace.

St. Louis points out the consequences of not taking advantage of this devotion.

"It is true that we can attain to divine union by other roads; but it is by many more crosses and exceptional setbacks, and with many more difficulties, which we shall find it hard to overcome" (True Devotion, \#152).

Instead of taking the hard road, why not take what St. Louis calls "a path of roses and honey compared with the other paths" (True Devotion, \#152)?

Since you're going to practice devotion to Mary every day anyway, doesn't it make the most sense to do it in the easiest and most delightful way possible, by using the devotion God revealed?

I think you know the answer.

Or, if you feel that your devotion to Mary is good enough, then do what the Saints diddecide to better your best.

God invites you to do just that, because He lovingly insists, "He that is holy, let him be sanctified still" (Apoc. 22:11).

So, why wait? Order this book today and experience the joys of a closer relationship with Mary. To borrow a slogan, "Just do it!"
