Evaluation

I usually overlook the few references to God and purely theological ones - which are few. I think that the article is very rich even without these aspects.
An article that I love to quote since it contains an extensive account of spiritual growth that stands beyond the limiting "woman's" in the title.

Stein describes the formation of the “spirit” as “a developmental process similar to that of the plant.”
"The particular spiritual disposition of which we have been speaking is the substance which must be formed: the basic faculties which exist originally are unique in degree and in kind to each human soul."
