For Catholics: A question about the Rosary?

Question

I came across this website that give you meditations to think upon as you say each Hail Mary but then at the bottom of each section there was a tag that said Spritual Fruit: ...

Here's the link, can you tell me what exactly they're there for?

Answer 1

it would be the spiritual growth manifested if you do those parts of the rosary...and how people will know you are holy or faithful. there's a part of the scriptures that says of believers, "by your fruits you will know them.." by focusing and meditating on various aspects of the rosary, it will help you to develope those qualities or "fruits" in your life.

Answer 2

Which are the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit?
The seven gifts of the Holy Spirit are:
1. Wisdom 3. Counsel 5. Knowledge
2. Understanding 4. Fortitude 6. Piety
7. Fear of the Lord
Is. 11:2,3

Which are the twelve fruits of the Holy Spirit?
1. Charity 5. Benignity 9. Faith
2. Joy 6. Goodness 10. Modesty
3. Peace 7. Longanimity 11. Continency
4. Patience 8. Mildness 12. Chastity
Gal. 5:22

The principal distinction between these two lists would seem to be that the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit are what Christians are to pray for, and the fruits of the Holy Spirit are the manifestation of those gifts.

Answer 3

When you pray the Rosay, you are praying the Gospels. Each of the twenty Mysteries of the Rosary highlights significant events surrounding Jesus' ministry on earth.

The more one meditates on these Mysteries as one prays the Rosary, the more one internalizes the Gospel. The more one internalizes the Gospel, the more Christ-like they become.

We reap what we sow. Those who sow praying the Rosary and meditating on it's Mysteries will begin to reap various Spiritual Fruits.

The website in question is telling you which spiritual fruit can bloom through you with persistant praying of the Rosary.

The Rosary is arguably the single most powerful prayer we can offer.

It's good to believe the Gospel.
It's better to read the Gospel.
Imagine the benefits of praying the Gospel. The website in question provides you with a window into some of the spiritual benefits of praying the Rosary/Gospel.

Answer 4

The spiritual fruit from the blessing of the mystery. Like an olive is a fruit of the olive tree, the spiritual fruit is the blessing of the contemplation. Can you not see the relationship of the fruit and the mystery?

Answer 6

The recitation of the Rosary is traditionally dedicated to one of three sets of "Mysteries" to be said in sequence, one per night: the Joyful (sometimes Joyous) Mysteries; the Sorrowful Mysteries; and the Glorious Mysteries. Each of these three sets of Mysteries has within it five different themes to be meditated on, one for each decade of ten Hail Marys. Pope John Paul II, recommended an additional set called the Luminous Mysteries (or the "Mysteries of Light").
In addition to meditating upon the events of the mysteries, many people associate certain virtues, or fruits, with each mystery. (The following list of mysteries and the fruits associated with them corresponds to moments in the life, passion, and death of Jesus and Mary's participation in them chronologically.)

The Annunciation. Fruit of the Mystery: Humility
The Visitation. Fruit of the Mystery: Love of Neighbor

Answer 7

Maybe the "Spiritual Fruit" means the theme or the lesson you're supposed to get from it or something. I'm not totally sure though. Try to wikipedia it or something.
