The author, a Cistercian monk, explores the journey towards complete conformity with God's will. He discusses the foundations of surrender to God, covering topics such as the extent of the divine Will, prudence, and the acceptance of suffering with joy. A significant portion of the book focuses on the "exercise of holy abandonment," using examples from monastic life that can also be applied to the lives of ordinary Christians living in the world.
