Course XLVI - Teaching 15: Radius and Cloistral Site

In Houses of Community, the Radius of Stability and privacy in rooms where the Ordained Sons live must be preserved.
The Sons will not leave the Radius of Stability for any cause and will not tread on outside the established area without due permission.
Watch rooms and departments assigned to the Ordained Sons, and those who are in charge of the keys be watchful: they never will remain open.
Keep the doors of the rooms always closed, even in the House.
Every year, one day, from March 9th to March 19th, the Superior blesses the rooms by a touch of magnetized oil of the Ordination lamp.
Always keep your rooms properly clean and in order.
No Son should enter the room of other Son for any cause without clear permission of the Superior. Rooms: will not have mirrors, and their use is just permitted in bathrooms and clothes room.
The image of a Light Blue Star will be at the entry to the cloistral site of the Community: at the right of the door for men and at the left for women.
In numerous Communities and Houses of much activity, the Son of higher rank, besides the charge of Vice-Director, will become administrator, to lighten the task of the Superior.
Those Sons that as they leave Seminary take Solemn Vows will not be admitted directly in Community. For three years, they will have an especial Director who will accompany them during recreations and sallies, and will assist all their needs, besides the ordinary assistance of their Superior.
Sons of Solemn Vows: always stay respectfully apart from the Sons of Perpetual Vows, and if you are admitted to take part in recreation and as a company, behave with great reverence and submission.
The Sons of Solemn Vows never will go out alone outside the Radius of Stability; if they are not accompanied by their Superior, they must go along with a Son of Perpetual Vow. They never will pay visits to their relatives, except in the event of death or imperious need.
Sons: be very careful and do not trust anyone your intimate feelings or your life in the world, not only among you but also in those Sons and Superior who are not your direct Superior or your Spiritual Director.
Escape from vanity and personal pride by seeking correction and reprimand from your Superior, even without a just cause.
Sons: have a sense of responsibility for Community; a fault or an omission of a Son should be assumed by all; this way, your good or your evil will disappear and just the soul of the Community will remain.
