Charterhouse of the Transfiguration (United States)
The web site of the Charterhouse of the Transfiguration consists of a
selection of published texts or parts of texts written by Carthusians
for Carthusians: sermons, novice conferences, pastoral letters from
Reverend Fathers and priors, booklets, and the like. They explain the
Carthusian need for silence and solitude: that is "to let the Lord utter
within us a word which is equal to Himself," and speak of the ideal and
of everyday challenges of Carthusian life in the desert. The site
contains also numerous pictures of the monastery and its environment. It
is hoped that all the elements brought together present a comprehensive
picture of Carthusian life at the Charterhouse of the Transfiguration,
in Vermont, USA.
