Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: «Gli Esercizi sono certamente quanto di meglio io posso concepire, conoscere e comprendere in questa vita, sia per il progresso personale di un uomo, sia per i frutti, l’aiuto e il profitto ch’egli può procurare agli altri» scriveva sant’Ignazio di Loyola. I suoi Esercizi Spirituali, raccolti in questo volume, costituiscono uno dei più celebri fra i testi che appartengono alla storia della Chiesa cattolica. Fin dalla sua origine, la Compagnia di Gesù riconosce in essi il documento fondamentale della sua spiritualità. Le meditazioni sul peccato e i metodi pratici di preghiera e di esame di coscienza, previsti dagli Esercizi in un percorso di quattro settimane, sono destinati a ogni genere di persona, poiché l’intento è quello di adattarli alle proprie specifiche condizioni storiche ed esistenziali, per raggiungere la comprensione e l’accettazione della volontà di Dio nella propria vita. Il loro intento pedagogico è quello di aiutare a «discernere», cioè a scegliere liberamente, ciò che è utile alla propria crescita. Il commento al testo è tratto da La doctrine spirituelle di padre Louis Lallemant (1588-1653), l’autore più illustre della «scuola spirituale » della Compagnia di Gesù.
Book Synopsis Discernimento e lotta spirituale by : Miguel Angel Fiorito
Download or read book Discernimento e lotta spirituale written by Miguel Angel Fiorito and published by Àncora Editrice. This book was released on 2024-05-21 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Negli Esercizi spirituali di sant’Ignazio di Loyola si possono distinguere due linee d’azione: una, la contemplazione dei grandi “temi” biblici, e l’altra, l’esperienza della varietà degli spiriti. Per guidarci in questa esperienza di discernimento dei diversi spiriti, sant’Ignazio ha scritto le sue Regole per il discernimento. Padre Fiorito vuole aiutarci nella conoscenza pratica di quelle che, secondo le parole di sant’Ignazio, «sono più tipiche della Prima settimana degli Esercizi», attraverso un dettagliato commento al testo ignaziano, esemplificato con testi di altri autori (sant’Antonio abate; santa Teresa di Gesù; sant’Agostino, ecc.). La lettura di quest’opera è quindi la migliore introduzione all’esperienza del discernimento degli spiriti, sia all’interno degli Esercizi sia al di fuori di essi, nella vita quotidiana.Discernimento spirituale è risolversi a vedere le impronte divine nei nostri lineamenti umani. E padre Fiorito, in quest’opera, non fa che riversare la sua lunga esperienza della dottrina ignaziana per offrirci una spiegazione precisa delle «regole per sentire e riconoscere in qualche modo le varie mozioni che si producono nell’anima» (Papa Francesco).In padre Fiorito oggi molti stanno riconoscendo un vero maestro di discernimento in un tempo nel quale la Chiesa sta insistendo molto – specialmente con il processo sinodale – a vivere questo discernimento, chiedendoci di farci guidare dalla consolazione, di discernere i linguaggi, di cercare e trovare la volontà di Dio nel cammino della comunità ecclesiale (Antonio Spadaro).

Book excerpt: Translated by E. M. Macierowski Originally published in French, de Lubac's four-volume study of the history of exegesis and theology is one of the most significant works of biblical studies to appear in modern times. Still as relevant and luminous as when it first appeared, the series offers a key resource for the renewal of biblical interpretation along the lines suggested by the Second Vatican Council in Dei Verbum. This second volume, now available for the first time in English, will fuel the currently growing interest in the history and Christian meaning of exegesis.
Book Synopsis Religious Experience Reconsidered by : Ann Taves
Download or read book Religious Experience Reconsidered written by Ann Taves and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-09-28 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How the sciences of the mind can advance the study of religion The essence of religion was once widely thought to be a unique form of experience that could not be explained in neurological, psychological, or sociological terms. In recent decades scholars have questioned the privileging of the idea of religious experience in the study of religion, an approach that effectively isolated the study of religion from the social and natural sciences. Religious Experience Reconsidered lays out a framework for research into religious phenomena that reclaims experience as a central concept while bridging the divide between religious studies and the sciences. Ann Taves shifts the focus from "religious experience," conceived as a fixed and stable thing, to an examination of the processes by which people attribute meaning to their experiences. She proposes a new approach that unites the study of religion with fields as diverse as neuroscience, anthropology, sociology, and psychology to better understand how these processes are incorporated into the broader cultural formations we think of as religious or spiritual. Taves addresses a series of key questions: how can we set up studies without obscuring contestations over meaning and value? What is the relationship between experience and consciousness? How can research into consciousness help us access and interpret the experiences of others? Why do people individually or collectively explain their experiences in religious terms? How can we set up studies that allow us to compare experiences across times and cultures? Religious Experience Reconsidered demonstrates how methods from the sciences can be combined with those from the humanities to advance a naturalistic understanding of the experiences that people deem religious.

Book excerpt: Book Excerpt: But there was no great need for caution at present. The oldpriest who had spoken to him before stepped a little in advanceof the rest, and turning, said in a low sentence or two to theBenedictines; and the group stopped, though one or two stilleyed, it seemed, with sympathy, the man who awaited him. Then thepriest came up alone and put his hand on the arm of the chair."Come out this way," he whispered. "There's a path behind, Monsignor, and I've sent orders for the car to be there."The man rose obediently (he could do nothing else), passed downthe steps and behind the canopy. A couple of police stood therein an unfamiliar, but unmistakable uniform, and these drewthemselves up and saluted. They went on down the little pathwayand out through a side-gate. Here again the crowd was tremendous, but barriers kept them away, and the two passed on togetheracross the pavement, saluted by half a dozen men who were pressedagainst the barriers--(it was here, for the first time, that thebewildered manRead Mo

Book Synopsis The Great Betrayal by : Hugh Ross Williamson
Download or read book The Great Betrayal written by Hugh Ross Williamson and published by . This book was released on 2021-08-27 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: British writer Hugh Ross Williamson (1901-1978), an Anglo-Catholic priest who converted to Catholicism in 1955 and a prolific writer of drama and history, wrote two pamphlets, in 1969 and 1970, expressing his conviction that the Novus Ordo Missae represented not a reform of the Roman Rite of Mass but a devastating corruption of it. His background equipped him well to discern the signs of Protestantism and of Modernism as they appeared in the replacement liturgical books, and his conscience bid him speak up against what he called 'the great betrayal' (an ironic echo of his 1955 book on the Roman Canon, The Great Prayer). While many traditionalists would not concur with certain of his conclusions, his intelligent work, motivated by an obvious love for the Faith, helps us to remember today the anguish of spirit through which our forebears had to pass as they saw the heritage for which they converted being dismantled rite by rite.
Book Synopsis PaGaian Cosmology by : Glenys Livingstone
Download or read book PaGaian Cosmology written by Glenys Livingstone and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PaGaian Cosmology brings together a religious practice of seasonal ritual based in a contemporary scientific sense of the cosmos and female imagery for the Sacred. The author situates this original synthesis in her context of being female and white European transplanted to the Southern Hemisphere. Her sense of alienation from her place, which is personal, cultural and cosmic, fires a cosmology that re-stories Goddess metaphor of Virgin-Mother-Crone as a pattern of Creativity, which unfolds the cosmos, manifests in Earth's life, and may be known intimately. PaGaian Cosmology is an ecospirituality grounded in indigenous Western religious celebration of the Earth-Sun annual cycle. By linking to story of the unfolding universe this practice can be deepened, and a sense of the Triple Goddess-central to the cycle and known in ancient cultures-developed as a dynamic innate to all being. The ritual scripts and the process of ritual events presented here, may be a journey into self-knowledge through personal, communal and ecological story: the self to be known is one that is integral with place. PaGaian Cosmology may be used as a resource for individuals or groups seeking new forms of devotional expression and an Earth-based pathway to wisdom within.
Book Synopsis Contemplative Practices in Higher Education by : Daniel P. Barbezat
Download or read book Contemplative Practices in Higher Education written by Daniel P. Barbezat and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-12-04 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemplative pedagogy is a way for instructors to: empower students to integrate their own experience into the theoretical material they are being taught in order to deepen their understanding; help students to develop sophisticated problem-solving skills; support students’ sense of connection to and compassion for others; and engender inquiries into students’ most profound questions. Contemplative practices are used in just about every discipline—from physics to economics to history—and are found in every type of institution. Each year more and more faculty, education reformers, and leaders of teaching and learning centers seek out best practices in contemplative teaching, and now can find them here, brought to you by two of the foremost leaders and innovators on the subject. This book presents background information and ideas for the practical application of contemplative practices across the academic curriculum from the physical sciences to the humanities and arts. Examples of contemplative techniques included in the book are mindfulness, meditation, yoga, deep listening, contemplative reading and writing, and pilgrimage, including site visits and field trips.
Book Synopsis The Theology of the Spiritual Life by : Joseph de Guibert
Download or read book The Theology of the Spiritual Life written by Joseph de Guibert and published by . This book was released on 2021-07-30 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2021 Reprint of the 1953 Edition. Facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Joseph de Guibert, S.J. (1877-1942) was one of the greatest spiritual theologians of the first part of the 20th century. Few spiritual writers during this period have written with equal theological depth, solidity, and balance. The Theology of the Spiritual Life is one the best English textbooks on spiritual theology available. The book is divided into seven parts. The first is an introduction to the study of spiritual theology in which the author defines and explains the terms "ascetical" and "mystical," distinguishes spiritual theology from the other branches of theology, especially moral and pastoral, explains the method and sources of spiritual theology, and adds some observations on its study. The second part treats of the nature of spiritual perfection, its relation to charity, habitual and actual, and to the other virtues and the counsels. He also discusses the relation existing between perfection and union with God, the imitation of Christ, suffering, active and passive conformity with the will of God, and the desire of perfection. The next part is a brief but solid treatise on the inspirations of the Holy Spirit, the docility required by the soul to profit by these inspirations, the gifts of the Holy Ghost and their relation to perfection, and the discernment of spirits. Man's cooperation with God is the main theme of Part IV, and after a chapter on the use of methods in spiritual life, the principal subject treated is that of spiritual direction, its nature and necessity, the qualities, duties, and role of a spiritual director. 1he following section is a treatise on mental prayer, its nature, degrees, necessity, and fruit, the states and habits of mind which can help or hinder mental prayer. In this section is treated the disputed question of acquired contemplation. The sixth part is concerned with the three degrees of the spiritual life, the qualities of soul in each degree, and the differences to be considered in regard to spiritual direction. This part closes with a chapter on the active and the contemplative life. The last section is on infused contemplation, its nature and degrees, its relation to spiritual perfection, and the extraordinary phenomena which sometimes accompany infused contemplation. Finally, there is added to the seven parts a brief bibliography of English books and a double index of names and subjects.
Book Synopsis Religion without God by : Ronald Dworkin
Download or read book Religion without God written by Ronald Dworkin and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his last book, Ronald Dworkin addresses questions that men and women have asked through the ages: What is religion and what is God’s place in it? What is death and what is immortality? Based on the 2011 Einstein Lectures, Religion without God is inspired by remarks Einstein made that if religion consists of awe toward mysteries which “manifest themselves in the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty, and which our dull faculties can comprehend only in the most primitive forms,” then, he, Einstein, was a religious person. Dworkin joins Einstein’s sense of cosmic mystery and beauty to the claim that value is objective, independent of mind, and immanent in the world. He rejects the metaphysics of naturalism—that nothing is real except what can be studied by the natural sciences. Belief in God is one manifestation of this deeper worldview, but not the only one. The conviction that God underwrites value presupposes a prior commitment to the independent reality of that value—a commitment that is available to nonbelievers as well. So theists share a commitment with some atheists that is more fundamental than what divides them. Freedom of religion should flow not from a respect for belief in God but from the right to ethical independence. Dworkin hoped that this short book would contribute to rational conversation and the softening of religious fear and hatred. Religion without God is the work of a humanist who recognized both the possibilities and limitations of humanity.
