Extracts from the Dux Spiritualis by the Venerable Louis de Ponte SJ
Chapter 4.4d - In the morning - Proximate Dispositions - Twofold preparation for prayer
Let us now come to proximate dispositions for prayer, (when the time has actually arrived)
... are comprehended in the directions given by Christ Our Lord saying:
"When thou shalt pray, enter into thy chamber, and having shut the door
Pray to thy Father in secret [St Matthew vi, 6].
This may be understood of entering into some room or private place where we may
be alone, quiet and unobserved; it will greatly help forward the recollection of prayer.
