I'm doing a research paper 8-10 pages...on Benedictine and Carmelite (there rules in comparsion and contrast) and there prayer life.....do any of you know of any really good sites of which they talk about this stuff? If so, that would be great help to me!!!!!!!! Thanks!

God Bless,

Ali

Dear Ali,

you can find links to the Rule of St. Benedict in lots of different languages here. There are many commentaries on the Rule available, but if you don't want to have to buy a book then I'd recommend looking at the websites of individual Benedictine houses - often they'll have a section on the Rule, with reflections on different parts, especially parts about the vows.

I hope this might help you a little.

Love and prayers,

PP
