Fr Gerry O'Collins discusses Anthony De Mello's contribution to Ignatian Spirituality.

Anthony De Mello is widely regarded as one of the great teachers of Ignatian Spirituality. An Indian Jesuit who embraced the call of Vatican II for congregations to return to the original works of their founders, he promoted new ways of experiencing retreats and prayer.

Recently Fr Gerry O'Collins has worked on the editing and publication of Anthony De Mello's lectures on the Spiritual Exercises of St Ignatius, these have been published in the book; Seek God Everywhere.
