"Ora et labora," which translates to "pray and work," originates from the Rule of Saint Benedict, a guide for monastic life written in the 6th century by Saint Benedict of Nursia. This phrase encapsulates the balanced spiritual and practical life that Benedictine monks were to follow, emphasizing the importance of both prayer and labor in their daily routine. The concept has since influenced various Christian monastic traditions and is often associated with the Benedictine way of life.
