  1. carthusian order

    The Carthusian Order is a Roman Catholic religious order of enclosed monastics that follows the Rule of Saint Bruno. It was founded in 1084 by Saint Bruno of Cologne in France. Known for its extreme asceticism and focus on solitary contemplation, the monks and nuns of the Carthusian order live in individual cells and only come together for communal worship and meals. They are perhaps most known for the intensive discipline of their monastic life, free of any distractions to spend their lifetime in prayer and quietness. The name "Carthusian" is derived from the Chartreuse Mountains in the French Alps, where the order's first monastery was founded.
