Extracts from the Dux Spiritualis by the Venerable Louis de Ponte SJ
Consequently, the fervour of our prayer and the progress we make in this sublime exercise are much less the fruit of our own industry than the work of the Holy Spirit. For by these holy exercises He operates within us and we in union with Him those six (6) acts in which perfect prayer consists.
Page 62 It is He Himself who:
1. places us in His presence
2. purifies and elevates our intention
3. disposes our meditation
4. enkindles our affections
5. directs our petitions
6. and teaches us how to make our colloquies
