Abstract

The article is an attempt to indicate the theological significance of spiritual suffering described in the Notatki duchowe by the outstanding Polish mystic, Marcelina Darowska. M. Darowska’s notes indicate a classical understanding of the significance of spiritual suffering, consistent with the centuries-old Christian tradition, but they introduce a certain original feature. The article consists of four parts: the first indicates the sources of spiritual suffering described by Marcelina Darowska in Notatki duchowe. The second part emphasizes the Christological nature of this issue. The third part indicates the purifying power of spiritual suffering, while the last point concerns the joy accompanying spiritual suffering.
