Episode 20: The Stages of Contemplation | The Commentaries: The Interior Castle
Channel: TAN Books
Date: 26/06/2023

Fr. Reid reviews St. Teresa's stages of contemplation:
Passive Recollection
Prayer of Quiet
Prayer of Union
Spiritual Betrothal 
Spiritual Marriage

It’s Teresa’s belief that God gives this favor of contemplation to those who have renounced the world, at least in their desires, and whom He desires to call to advance further to a higher life.
