psychagogy

In the Christian type of psychagogy we will see that although it is true that the person who provides spiritual direction must obey a number of rules, and that he has a number of responsibilities and obligations, the most fundamental and essential cost of the truth and of "truth-telling" will be borne by the person whose soul has to be guided.

The idea of a 'psychagogy' only occupies a secondary place, and has been more the concern of the disciples than of the master.
