Pedro Arrupe on the Spiritual Exercises

Pedro Arrupe on the Spiritual Exercises

“The Exercises are, in the last analysis, a method in the pedagogy of love—the pedagogy, that is, of the most pure charity toward God and toward one’s neighbor. They root out carnal and worldly love from the human heart, thus opening it to the beams of God’s love. A demanding love it is, calling forth in a person a response of love and of service. Service, which is itself love. This is the message of the very last paragraph of the book of the Exercises. ‘The zealous service of God our Lord out of pure love should be esteemed above all.’ In the Exercises we find terms and concepts which are logically reducible to one another: the ‘glory of God,’ for example, can be replaced by the ‘service of God.’ The same may be said of ‘praise’ and ‘reverence.’ Only one term is final and irreducible to another: love.”  (Pedro Arrupe: Essential Writings, Kevin Burke, Maryknoll, NY: Orbis Books 2004, p. 136–137)

Value education

Value education

In an age when value system is in a flux and values are being constantly redefined, the importance of imbibing basic values cannot be overemphasized. Values are the roots of our life, the foundation of our existence and help build our character and personality. Hence value education has become the need of the hour. “Yes We Can – A book of values and life skills” is a series of eight books for  primary Urban schools (Classes 1- 8) with a difference. The books do not moralize or preach. They focus on situational and experiential learning through inspiring stories, interesting anecdotes, thought-provoking activities, creative projects, self assessment tasks, and real life examples. The think-do-and-learn approach of the series will help students to imbibe values, acquire life skills and become well-rounded individuals. The Series advisor for this publication by Ratna Sagar P Ltd is Fr Cedric Prakash. Congratulations and Best wishes to you!

Tagore - Into that heaven of Freedom ...

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high;

 

   Where knowledge is free;

Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls;
