According to Thomas Aquinas, contemplation is the central goal of our life. This study considers the philosophical foundations of the contemplative act; the nature of the active and contemplative lives in light of Aquinas's Dominican calling; the role of faith in contemplation; and contemplation and the beatific vision.
