Below is a beautiful passage from Father Réginald Marie Garrigou-Lagrange regarding the mind of the Blessed Virgin. Since she was without sin and concupiscence, her mind was never inordinately stirred by the passions. She was all wise:
Her intellect was never exposed to either error or illusion, so that she was always correct in her judgments, and if she was not at any time enlightened about anything, then she suspended her judgment, avoiding all precipitation. Thus she is called Seat of Wisdom, Queen of Doctors, Virgin most Prudent, Mother of Good Counsel (from G-L's Christ the Saviour).Incidentally, this is a good reminder for us to "suspend judgment" if we are not enlightened about something. I'd do well to observe that...
Sedes Sapientiae, ora pro nobis.
