Catholics believe that it is a therapy https://tinyurl.com/2z8v5zeu against severe trials, temptations https://tinyurl.com/bdenkazh and the hardships https://tinyurl.com/4657a8kp of life, and that the Rosary is one of the great weapons given to believers in their battle against every evil. https://tinyurl.com/2p9p6uz3 Pope Pius XI is quoted as saying, for example, "The Rosary https://tinyurl.com/pr77d3uz is a powerful weapon to put the demons to flight." Saints and popes have emphasized its meditative and contemplative elements and provided specific teachings for how it should be prayed, for instance the need for "focus, respect, reverence and purity of intention" during its recitations and contemplations. Devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary True Devotion to Mary through the recitation of the Rosary is one of the most popular features of Catholic spirituality. Pope John Paul II placed it at the very centre of Christian spirituality and called it "among the finest and most praiseworthy traditions of Christian contemplation." From the sixteenth century onwards, the recitations often involved "picture texts" that assisted meditation. Such imagery continues to be used to depict the mysteries. Catholic saints have stressed the importance of meditation and contemplation. Scriptural meditations concerning it are based on the Christian tradition of Lectio Divina, (literally divine reading) as a way of using the Gospel to start a conversation between the person and Christ. Padre Pio, a devotee, said: "Through the study of books one seeks God; by meditation one finds him." References to the Rosary have been part of a number of reported Marian Apparitions spanning two centuries. The reported messages from these apparitions have influenced the spread of Rosary devotion worldwide. In Quamquampluries Pope Leo XIII related its devotions to Saint Joseph and granted indulgences in favour of Christian believers who, during the month of October, would have added the Prayer to Saint Joseph at the end of the Holy Rosary. Praying the Rosary may be prescribed by priests as a type of penance after confession. (Penance is not generally intended as a "punishment"; rather, it is meant to encourage meditation upon and spiritual growth from past sins.) It has been featured in the writings of Catholic figures from saints to popes and continues to be mentioned in reported Marian apparitions, with a number of promises attributed to the power of the rosary. One of the forces that encouraged the spread of its recitation during the 19th century among Catholics was the influence of the Rosary Pope, a title given to Leo XIII (1878–1903) because he issued a record twelve encyclicals and five Apostolic Letters concerning the Rosary, instituted the Catholic custom of daily Rosary prayer during the month of October and, during 1883, added the invocation Queen of the most Holy Rosary to the Litany of Loreto. https://tinyurl.com/PaulineMarathiRos... Leo XIII explained the importance of the Rosary as the one road to God from the faithful to the mother and from her to Christ and through Christ to the Father, and that the Rosary was a vital means to participate with the life of Mary and to find the way to Christ. https://tinyurl.com/PaulineHindiRosar... Rosary as a family prayer was endorsed by Pope Pius XII in his encyclical Ingruentiummalorum: "The custom of the family praying of the Holy Rosary is a most efficacious means."
