Title Details

To all who wonder at the mystery underlying the silence of the universe and the clouds of history, spirituality is the impression that meeting the Transcendent causes in the life of a person. Theology is the perception brought to the surface by this meeting when one tries to understand it and talk about it. From a panoramic view of the history of spirituality, the author shows the historical roots of several spiritual movements and schools, as well as reflects theologically on the constitutive elements which lay the foundation of Christian spirituality and add to its development (spiritual orientation). Attracted by the One who is the source of all life and the God of all consolation, the Christian — as a unified person in bodily, psychic and spiritual dimension — follows the way of Jesus Christ — fraternity without boundaries — moved and sustained by the strength and dynamism of the Holy Spirit.
