224 Recognizing the need to strengthen the spiritual senses, Ignatius of Loyola developed spiritual exercises to attune the senses to perceive divine mystery.225 Ignatian spiritual exercises summon one’s ability to see, feel, smell, and sometimes taste what is described in the biblical text as if one were there. This and other practices that invite playing nurture the ability to perceive what is deep within or behind what registers to the ordinary senses.
