A number of de Mello's works were

published posthumously as

collections, or based upon notes or

recordings of his conferences.

His first published book Sadhana - A

way to God was released in 1978. It

outlined a number of spiritual

principles and exercises inspired by

the teachings of Saint Ignatius.
