That the Figure May Remain Whole: A Liturgical Offering in Breath and Gesture by Basil, Obl. O.S.B.
That the Figure May Remain Whole: A Liturgical Offering in Breath and Gesture
by Basil, Oblate Order of St. Benedict (Obl. O.S.B.)
Let the work be quiet. Let the breath be whole. Let the figure remain.
Drawing from the Catholic sacramental tradition, Benedictine spirituality, and symbolic theology, this manuscript is a liturgical reflection in seven movements. It does not seek to explain, but to offer as a lay reflection under the Rule, intended for slow, prayerful reading and reverent reception. It is shaped by silence, gesture, and the rhythm of consecrated form. Written in the spirit of service, entrusted to whoever reads, and completed beneath the breath.
Ut figura integra permaneat. That the figure may remain whole.

TESTIMONIALS
“This manuscript breathes with liturgical depth, where silence, gesture, and symbol converge into a contemplative offering. It does not argue; it invites, drawing the reader into reverent participation in mystery and form through sacred attention.” – Dr. Sebastian Mahfood, OP, author of The Narrative Spirituality of Dante’s Divine Comedy
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Basil (Obl.O.S.B.) is an Oblate of the Order of St. Benedict, formed by the silence of monastic life, the discipline of metaphysical inquiry, and the fire of Trinitarian theology. He writes at the intersection of tradition and revelation, East and West, silence and fire. His work seeks one thing: to unveil the unity of the Church and the destiny of creation in the uncreated fire of God. He lives in St. Augustine, Florida, where he continues to write, pray, and guard the flame at our nation’s first parish and at the Shrine of Our Lady of La Leche, the oldest Marian shrine in the United States.
