Great images - thank you for posting them. Bosch is one of a kind... "Christ Carries the Cross" is a nightmare.

Think there are any Jesuits left who still do these excercises?

Fr. Dare included this in his homily last Sunday in St. Rose in Sacramento.

I think that the discipline of spiritual exercise is lacking today; it is replaced by a less rigirous regimen of short prayer and book reading. A spiritual exercise is more evolved than a prayer, and is more introspective. Reading a book is often no exercise at all: the author has done all the work and the reader is mere consumer.

I will be posting from Loyola periodically.
