You want insights for living? Look to people whose understandings have been practiced for fifteen hundred years. Saint Benedict and Saint Scholastica, his twin sister, established a flexible pattern that has adopted, adapted, challengedand outlivedmyriad cultures. Their sons and daughters today, who devote their time and talents to the ';school for the Lord's service' launched by the Rule of Benedict, demonstrate a whole range of options that are accessible to anyone. It is a mistake to think that ';forsaking the world' is the Benedictine option. Options (plural) are, instead, ';for the sake of the world.'
