Sweet Heart of Mary,
be for us the path
that leads to Jesus.
Turgis
Among these images are several that illustrates the understanding that as Christ received his human nature from the most pure Virgin, so the Heart of Jesus and Mary are one. Both in image and in text they illustrate not two separate hearts, but rather one inseparable Heart of Jesus and Mary.
PURE LOVE
The degree of purity determines the degree of union.
"The supernatural union exists when God's will and the soul's will are in conformity.
Therefore the soul rests transformed in God through love...
The illumination of the soul and its union with God corresponds to its purity."
~St. John of the Cross Ascent of Mt. Carmel BK. 2 CH. 5
