It is clear that, directed to self-improvement, ascetism requires intelligent human acts, with the help of actual grace. Prayer on the other hand, as it is the adoration of God, is the fruit of habitual or sanctifying grace; it is the return to the Father of the love of the Holy Ghost through a human person. On the human point of view, it is a willing act tending to empty ourselves of self, to generate recollection, and to favor assent in order to adore God. As soon as one perceives the difference between ascetism and prayer, I think one can understand the revolution in the Church. Priests-- notably the most efficacious priests, that is, the bishops--were fed up with a liturgy in which they had nothing to do. They therefore wanted an escetic Mass in place of an adoring Mass--action in place of contemplation.
