  CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: The Benedictine Order
Though a Benedictine himself born in Aquitaine and trained at Saint-Seine near Dijon, Benedict was imbued with the rigid austerity of the East, and in his Abbey of Aniane practiced a mode of life that was severe in the extreme.
Benedict's Rule was widely propagated by Charlemagne and his son, Louis the Pious, and the Council of Aix-la-Chapelle in 817 enforced its general observance in all the nunneries of the empire.
Benedict himself began by converting and civilizing the barbarians who overran Italy in the sixth century, the best of whom came and learned the Gospel principles at Monte Cassino.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: The Maurists
Richelieu desired an amalgamation of all the Benedictines in France and even succeeded in bringing into existence, in 1634, an organisation that was called the "Congregation of St. Benedict" or "of Cluny and St-Maur".
Those who desired to embrace the monastic state spent one year as "postulants", a second as "novices", and then, when they had completed the five years' course of philosophy and theology, spent a "year of recollection" before they were admitted to the priesthood.
All laboured with their hands, all abstained from flesh-meat, all embraced regular poverty; the Divine Office was recited at the canonical hours with great solemnity, silence was observed for many hours, and there were regular times for private prayer and meditation.

 Awaken to prayer: how to pray as a Catholic
'The saints have always been the source and origin of renewal in the most difficult moments in the Church's history.' Indeed, 'holiness is the hidden source and infallible measure of her apostolic activity and missionary zeal.'" See also the communion of saints.
To encourage veneration of the saints the church grants a partial indulgence if we pray the oration (the opening prayer) given in the missal for the feast day of the saint, or any other officially approved prayer invoking the saint.
Add your own favorite saints, if they are not in the litany, and some of the new ones recently canonized.

 What Was New OSB! January to March 2000, First Quarter. The Order of Saint Benedict
When Benedict died, two monks, one in his cell, and the other far distant, had the same vision concerning him: for they saw the whole way from the holy man's cell, towards the east even up to heaven, hung and adorned with tapestry and shining with an infinite number of lamps.
Then he spoke: "This is the way by which the beloved servant of God, Benedict, is ascended up to heaven." And by this means, as his monks that were present knew of the death of the holy man, so likewise those who were absent had intelligence of the same thing, as Benedict had predicted.
