You’re missing a critical requirement for the gaining of plenary indulgences. You must be completely free of all attachment to sin, even venial sin.Go to mass every chance you get. The SECOND best thing is Eucharistic Adoration. Mass comes first because it gives the most glory to God than any other form of worship.
What I like to do on Saturdays, is go to confession, then the mass and receive the most glorious sacrament of the Altar. After these I would go to the Perpetual Chapel and adore the Eucharist for at least a half hour. I would then say an Our Father, Hail Mary , and a Glory Be for the intentions of the Holy Father. All this will gain me a PLENARY INDULGENCE, a complete remission of punishments that are due for my sins in purgatory. With this it is possible to go straight to heaven and skip purgatory altogether.
Many people don’t realize the treasures of the indulgences that are so EASY to get.
This is in fact so difficult to achieve that St Philip Neri, preaching before a church full of thousands of people at a major feastday, all trying to gain the indulgence attached to it, had it revealed to him that of all those thousands trying, only himself and one elderly lady had succesfully gained the plenary indulgence.
Of course there is nothing wrong and everything right with trying to gain a plenary indulgence. At the very worst you will obtain a partial indulgence. Just dont be fooled into thinking that a plenary indulgence is easy to gain. It isn’t, not by any stretch of the imagination.
