The Regula Magistri or Rule of the Master is an anonymous sixth-century collection of monastic precepts.
The text of the Rule of the Master is found in the Concordia Regularum of Benedict of Aniane, who gave it its name.
[2] In the Parable of the Spring, the Master invokes Christ's appeal in Matthew 11:29 to "Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am meek and humble of heart ...".
Adalbert de Vogüé points out that the Master viewed the monastery as a school where one learns from Christ.
He deleted some sections, and adapted others based on his own experience, placing more emphasis on fraternal love.
