Obsculta, o fili, praecepta magistri.

Some readers of this blog will be familiar with the opening words of the Prologue of the Rule of St. Benedict: Obsculta, o fili, praecepta magistri, et inclina aurem cordis tui - "Listen, my son, to the master's instructions and attend to them with the ear of your heart." These words come to mind today as I prepare to begin my annual eight-day retreat, a time of silent prayer and, I hope, a time of attentive listening. Please know of my prayers for all readers as I start my retreat; if you are so inclined, please pray for me in return. AMDG.

Please sir, could you tell me who made the sculpture.
Best regards,

Dear Cathy,
Thank you for your comment. The statue of St Benedict was made by a Trappist monk at the abbey of Tamié. I regret that I don't know his name.
