Ukukhubazeka kanye nokulinganisela: ukuqonda izeluleko zikaSt. Ignatius waseLoyola
Ngasekupheleni kokuzivocavoca okungokomoya kukaSt. Ignatius waseLoyola kunengxenye enelukuluku enesihloko esithi "Amanye amanothi aphathelene nokuphamba". Ukuqapha kungenye yalezo zinkinga ezingokomoya ezicasulayo esingaziqapheli njalo kepha ezingasinika ubuhlungu obukhulu uma ziyekwe zingalawulwa. Ngikholwe, ngiyazi!
Wake wezwa ngobuqili? Kuthiwani ngecala lamaKatolika? Ubuqili bunecala lamaKatolika noma, njengoba uSant'Alfonso Liguori echaza:
“Unembeza uyacophelela lapho, ngenxa yesizathu esingasho lutho futhi ngaphandle kwesizathu esizwakalayo, kunokwesatshwa kaningi kwesono ngisho noma empeleni singekho isono. Ukuxakaniseka ukuqonda okuyiphutha kokuthile ”(Moral Theology, Alphonsus de Liguori: Selected Writings, ed. Frederick M. Jones, C. Ss. R., p. 322).
Uma ukhathazekile ngokuthi kukhona okwenziwe "kahle", ungahle uhlakaniphe.
Lapho ifu lokuxakeka nokungabaza lizula phezu kokukholwa kwakho nokuphila kwakho kokuziphatha okuhle, ungahle ube nokubukisisa.
Lapho wesaba imicabango nemizwa eyeqisayo futhi usebenzisa umthandazo namasakramente ngenkani ukuze uwaqede, ungahle uqaphele.
Iseluleko sika-Ignatius sokubhekana nezinkinga singamangaza umuntu obhekene nazo. Ezweni lokweqisa, ukuhaha nodlame, lapho isono sidluliselwa obala futhi ngaphandle kwamahloni, umuntu angacabanga ukuthi thina maKrestu sidinga ukwenza umthandazo owengeziwe nokuzisola ukuze sibe ngofakazi abaphumelelayo bomusa osindisayo kaNkulunkulu. .
Kepha kumuntu onobuhlakani, ukuzincisha izinto kuyindlela engafanele yokuphila impilo ejabulisayo noJesu Kristu, kusho uSt. Ignatius. Iseluleko sakhe sikhomba umuntu onobuqili - nabaqondisi babo - maqondana nesisombululo esihlukile.
Ukulinganisela njengesihluthulelo sobungcwele
USt Ignatius waseLoyola uveza ukuthi ezimpilweni zabo zokomoya nezokuziphatha, abantu bavame ukukhululeka okholweni lwabo noma bahlakaniphe, ukuthi sithambekele ngokwemvelo ngandlela thile.
Icebo likaSathane, ngakho-ke, ukuqhubekisa ukulinga lo muntu ekuyekeleleni noma ekuthembekeni, ngokuya ngokuthambekela kwabo. Umuntu okhululekile uye akhululeke ngokwengeziwe, azivumele ukuthi akhathale ngokweqile, kuyilapho umuntu onobuhlakani eba yisigqila esingabaza ngokungabaza kwakhe nokuphelela kwakhe. Ngakho-ke, impendulo yabafundisi kulezo nalezi zimo kumele yehluke. Umuntu okhululekile kufanele asebenzise isiyalo ukuze akhumbule ukuthembela kuNkulunkulu kakhulu. Umuntu onobuhlakani kufanele asebenzise isilinganiso ukuze adedele futhi athembe uNkulunkulu kakhulu.
“Umphefumulo ofisa ukuthuthuka empilweni yokomoya kumele ngaso sonke isikhathi wenze okuphambene nalokho kwesitha. Uma isitha sizama ukukhulula unembeza, umuntu kufanele alwele ukuwenza ubucayi. Uma isitha silwela ukuthambisa unembeza ukuze usilethe ngokweqile, umphefumulo kufanele ulwele ukuzinza ngokuqinile enkambweni elinganiselayo ukuze kuzo zonke izinto ukwazi ukuzigcina ngokuthula. "(N. 350)
Abantu abanobuqili babambelela ezindinganisweni eziphakeme kangaka futhi bavame ukucabanga ukuthi badinga isiyalo esithe xaxa, imithetho eyengeziwe, isikhathi esengeziwe sokuthandaza, ukuvuma izono okwengeziwe, ukuze bathole ukuthula okuthenjiswa uNkulunkulu. Lokhu akuyona nje indlela engafanele, kusho uSanta Ignatius, kodwa isicupho esiyingozi esibekwe ngudeveli ukugcina umphefumulo uboshiwe. Ukuzijwayeza ukulinganisela enkambweni yenkolo nokuyekelela ekwenzeni izinqumo - hhayi ukujuluka ngezinto ezincane - kuyindlela eya ebungcweleni bomuntu onobuqili:
“Uma umphefumulo ozinikele ufisa ukwenza okuthile okungaphikisani nomoya weSonto noma umqondo wabaphathi abangaba yinkazimulo kaNkulunkulu iNkosi yethu, umcabango noma isilingo singavela ngaphandle kokusho noma ukukwenza. Izizathu ezisobala zinganikezwa maqondana nalokhu, njengeqiniso lokuthi kushukunyiswa yi-vainglory noma enye inhloso engaphelele, njll. Ezimweni ezinjalo kufanele aphakamise ingqondo yakhe ayibhekise kuMdali naseNkosini yakhe, futhi uma ebona ukuthi lokho asezokwenza kuyahambisana nenkonzo kaNkulunkulu, noma okungenani akuphikisani, kufanele alwe ngqo nesilingo. "(Cha. 351)
Umlobi wezenkolo uTrent Beattie ufingqa iseluleko sikaSt. Ignatius: "Uma ungabaza, akunandaba!" Noma kuma-dubiis, libertas ("lapho kukhona ukungabaza, kukhona inkululeko"). Ngamanye amagama, thina ngobuhlakani sivunyelwe ukwenza izinto ezijwayelekile ezenziwa abanye inqobo nje uma bengalahlwa ngokusobala yimfundiso yeSonto, njengoba ivezwe yiBandla uqobo.
(Ngizoqaphela ukuthi abangcwele nabo babenemibono ephikisanayo ngezihloko ezithile ezinempikiswano - ngokwesibonelo izingubo zokugqoka. Ungagxili ezinkulumweni-mpikiswano - uma ungaqiniseki, buza umphathi wakho wezomoya noma uye kuCatechism. Khumbula: Uma ungabaza, akubalwa!)
Eqinisweni, akugcini nje ngokuvunyelwa kwethu, kepha thina abanobuqili siyakhuthazwa ukuthi senze lokho okubanga ukungqubuzana kwethu! Futhi, inqobo nje uma ingagwetshwa ngokusobala. Lo mkhuba akukhona nje ukuncoma kukaSt. Ignatius nabanye abangcwele, kepha futhi kuyahambisana nemikhuba yokwelapha yesimanje yokwelapha abantu abane-OCD.
Ukuzijwayeza ukulinganisela kunzima ngoba kubonakala kusivivi. Uma kukhona into eyodwa enengeka ngokujulile futhi esabisayo kumuntu onobuqili, kuba sivivi ekwenzeni inkolo. Kungaze kumenze angabaze imfundiso yenkolo yomqondisi ongokomoya othembekile nabeluleki abangochwepheshe.
Umuntu onobuhlakani kufanele amelane nale mizwa nokwesaba, kusho uSanta Ignatius. Kumele athobeke futhi azithobe ekuqondisweni kwabanye ukuze azidedele. Kumele abone ukuthamba kwakhe njengezilingo.
Umuntu okhululekile angahle angakuqondi lokhu, kepha lokhu kuyisiphambano kumuntu onobuqili. Akunandaba ukuthi singajabule kangakanani, kusenza sizizwe sikhululeke kakhulu ukubambelela ekupheleleni kwethu kunokwamukela ukulinganiselwa kwethu bese sibeka ukungapheleli kwethu esiheni sikaNkulunkulu. Ukwenza ukulinganisela kusho ukudedela noma ikuphi ukwesaba okujulile esinakho ukuze sithembele isihe esikhulu sikaNkulunkulu. Lapho uJesu ethi kumuntu onobuwula: "Zincenge wena, uthathe isiphambano sakho ungilandele", yilokhu ayekusho.
Ukuqonda kanjani ukulinganisela njengemfanelo
Into eyodwa engasiza umuntu onobuhlakani ukuba aqonde ukuthi ukwenza ukulinganisela kuholela ekukhuleni kobuhle - ubuhle beqiniso - ukucabanga ngobudlelwano phakathi kobuqili, ukuxega nobuhle bokholo nokwahlulela okulungile.
USt. Thomas Aquinas, elandela u-Aristotle, ufundisa ukuthi ubuhle “yiyona ndlela” phakathi kwezimo ezimbi ezimbili eziphikisanayo. Ngeshwa, lapho abantu abaningi abanobuqili bezwa izindlela, ukweqisa noma ukuzibamba.
Isifiso somuntu onobuhlakani ukuthi siziphathe ngokungathi ukukholwa kakhulu kungcono (uma bengabona ukuphoqwa kwabo njengokungenampilo). Ukulandela iNcwadi Yesambulo, uhlobanisa "ukushisa" nokuba nenkolo kakhulu uma kuqhathaniswa "nokubanda" nokuba nenkolo encane. Ngakho-ke, umbono wakhe "wokubi" uxhunyaniswe nomqondo wakhe wokuthi "usivivi". Kuyena, ukulinganisela akuyona into enhle, kepha kungukuzidla, kungasinaki isono sakhe.
Manje, kungenzeka ukuthi sibe sivivi ekwenzeni inkolo yethu. Kepha kubalulekile ukuqaphela ukuthi ukuba "shushu" akufani nokuba nobuqili. "Ukufudumala" kusondela emlilweni oqothula konke wothando lukaNkulunkulu. "Ukufudumala" kusinikeza ngokuphelele kuNkulunkulu, siphilele Yena futhi sikuye.
Lapha sibona ubuhle njengamandla: njengoba umuntu onobuhlakani efunda ukuthembela kuNkulunkulu futhi adedele ukubambelela kwakhe ekuthambekeleni ekupheleleni, uyasuka ekuqikeleleni, asondele kakhudlwana kuNkulunkulu. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, ngenkathi umuntu okhululekile ekhula ekuyaleni futhi intshiseko, ngendlela efanayo isondela kakhudlwana kuNkulunkulu. "Okubi" akuyona indlela edidekile, ukuxubana kokubi okubili, kepha ukwelula okucacile okuqonde ebunyeni noNkulunkulu, (okokuqala) osidonsela kuye ngokufanayo.
Into emnandi ngokukhula ngokuqina ngamandla ngomkhuba wokumodareyitha ukuthi, ngesinye isikhathi nangokuholwa ngumqondisi ongokomoya, singanikela kuNkulunkulu ngomhlatshelo omkhulu womkhuleko, ukuzila ukudla kanye nemisebenzi yesihe ngomoya wenkululeko kunokuba ngomoya wokwesaba okuphoqayo. Masingayeki ukuzithoba sonke ndawonye; kunalokho, lezi zenzo ziyalelwa ngokufanele lapho okuthi lapho sifunda ukwamukela nokuphila ngesihe sikaNkulunkulu.
Kepha okokuqala, ngokulinganisela. Ubumnandi bungezinye zezithelo zikaMoya oNgcwele. Lapho sizenzela umathanda ngobuhlakani ngokwenza ngokulingene, senza ngendlela uNkulunkulu angafisa ngayo. Ufuna sazi ukuthi unomusa wakhe onamandla namandla othando lwakhe.
Saint Ignatius, sithandazele!
