"In a period of history in which many structures and life styles are falling into pieces while we are constantly left with nothing but our own personal resources and intuitions, the need of a spiritual direction is becoming more evident. From the idealistic point of view, anybody would benefit from a spiritual guide. However, it would be wrong to believe that there is only one spiritual guide. It is important to start thinking about an entire community or ministry where people help each other, practicing spiritual disciplines, living in a way that makes us sensible to the constant presence of God in our life"
Above all we create a welcoming place for those people in upheaval in this extraordinary phase of crisis and regeneration. Contemporary men and women often suffer this crisis in solitude, feeling guilty or ashamed. We welcome them and show the evolutional meaning of the crisis that they suffer from.
Moreover, our research is a real experimentation, an authentic research and therefore we try to transmit, in our Groups, that sense of liberty that every research should have. We use, as we’ve shown, different schools of knowledge, but without any specialization or abstract concepts. All knowledge is used with precision and care, but only in view of the transformation that it can give.
The groups however, can help people to experiment the small and big miracles of rebirth only through relationships that are regular and lasting. We need to feed the mutual confidence, the affection and the joy of being together, communicating to each other our pains and our delight.
Fundamentally, it is a positive spirit, even enthusiastic, the spirit with which we are called to live this unique phase of the history of our planet. We cannot be trans-figured without the trust and the passion for ‘newness’ which is however nothing more than the spirit of ‘man’ which is being born within us.
"Essere testimone significa dare la propria vita per gli amici, diventare un ‘martire’, nel senso originale della parola. Essere un testimone significa offrire la propria esperienza di fede e rendere disponibili agli altri i tuoi dubbi e le tue speranze, i tuoi fallimenti e i tuoi successi, la tua solitudine e le tue ferite, come un contesto nel quale possano affrontare la propria umanità e la propria ricerca di senso"
"Only passivity is dangerous. A Poet is he who breaks for us our habits. (…) and may he tell everyone the joy of living this special time. Because the moment is great and new, in which to know ourselves again"
