 Whoever the author was, he or she believed that the present moment is a sacrament from God and that self-abandonment to it and its needs is a holy state – a belief which, in the theological climate of France at the time, was considered close to Quietist heresy.In fact, because of this fear (especially with the Church's condemnation of the Quietist movement), the works were kept unpublished until 1861, and even then they were edited by Ramière to protect them from charges of Quietism.A more authoritative version of these notes was published only in 1966.
