The Passionists, a Roman Catholic religious congregation of priests and brothers, were sent to Hunan, China by the Propaganda Fide in Rome. Beginning in 1921 as the singular mission of St. Paul of the Cross Province, Union City, New Jersey, in 1923 Passionists from Holy Cross Province, Chicago, Illinois, also contributed personnel and resources. A total of 80 Passionists were assigned to China. The last Passionist was expelled in 1955.

Primary evangelization occurred in the Diocese of Yuanling 沅陵 in West Hunan under the leadership of Passionist Bishop Cuthbert O'Gara with secondary locations in Hankou and Peiping (Beijing). Also serving in the Yuanling Diocese were the Sisters of Charity of Convent Station, New Jersey; the Sisters of St. Joseph, Baden, Pennsylvania; the Grey Nuns of Ontario, Canada; the Sisters of Charity (Hungary); and the Sisters of Notre Dame (Kalocsa, Hungary).

Shenxiu jianghua 神修講話. [Manuel des âmes intérieures. Chinese] / Jean Nicolas Grou 葛盧 (1731-1803), trans. by Yao Ruo 堯若

Two of Grou's published works carry the title Manuel des ames intérieures (both posthumous): One subtitled "Recueil d'opuscules inédits" and one "Suite d'opuscules inédits." Yet according to the preface to our book, three installments of records from lectures on ascetics (shenxiu 神修)—taken with Grou's permission—given to women religious were published starting in 1833. Our book is a translation of a later, combined edition of the three installments. The preface notes that some passages were omitted in the translation.

Our book was first published in March 1953. It quickly sold out and a new edition was prepared. The preface to the new edition notes that some changes were made to the text and that a new cover was chosen for it.

This book is one of the latest to be published by the Tou-sè-wè (Tushanwan 土山灣) printshop.
