Carmelite saints, of course, not only are admired and taken up as masters of the spiritual life, each in their own way. I was reading something I copied off the internet a couple of days ago and if memory serves, I think it was by a Dominican. He frequently quoted from both St. Teresa of Avila and also St. John of The Cross - no other saints or spiritual authors., not even St. Dominica or Thomas Aquinas. I think St. Thomas was a Dominican.

Yes, St. Thomas Aquinas is a Dom.




I keep thinking there has got to be a connection or common factor between Carmelite & Dominican spiritualities...I just can't quite put my finger on it yet.
