Eso No Estaba En Mi Libro de Historia D

Sinopsis del Libro

Did you know that many Cathars believed in reincarnation? And that they thought giving up on material things was essential to save oneself? What is the relationship between the Occitan Cathars and the Holy Grail? Did the treasure of Montsegur exist? Did they come to pose a real danger to the church of Rome? Did you know that there is a relationship between the literary genre of courtly love and Catharism? And that the Cathars refused to eat meat, had only one prayer (the Lord's Prayer) and did not accept alms? Oscar Fabrega, historian specializing in the history of religions, in addition to exposing and explaining their beliefs, their rituals and their history, echoes endless unknown facts about the enigmatic Cathars of Languedoc. From the mid-twelfth century to the end of the thirteenth, the Cathar movement rose in Occitania, northern Italy, Flanders, Champagne and Catalonia as an authentic alternative church to that of Rome, with its own organization, its doctrine and a curious initiation rite, the "consolament". Radical in their beliefs and imbued with a deep spirituality, the Cathars are the protagonists of a period of great importance for the West. These rebels of the Middle Ages called earthly powers fraudulent, rejected materialism, treated women on equal terms, accepted difference of creed, defended free love and affirmed that hell did not exist. But, above all, the Cathars called into question the authority of the Church and its conception of good and evil, causing the imposed system of values to falter. The response of Catholicism was tremendous: with the support of the French crown, which longed to finally occupy Occitania, the Church launched itself to repress the Occitan Cathar movement with blood and fire. And it managed to finish them off.

En lo secreto

En algún momento todos necesitamos una palabra de consejo, consuelo o esperanza, que nos dé fuerzas para continuar. Quisiéramos reunirnos a solas con alguien que sepa cómo ayudarnos, nos guíe, y nos dé una estrategia para salir de una situación o entrar en una. Llegamos a desear que alguien nos hable claro, sin máscaras ni diplomacia, ni falsedad, nos guste o no lo que te pueda decir, pero que lo haga con amor y sinceridad. Tal vez deseamos que tan solo nos escuchen sin hablar, sin juzgarnos, y que nos comprendan. O soñamos con el momento y lugar donde podamos descansar y sentir una...

Orar con la Buena Nueva

"Vino a los suyos", escribe san Juan al comienzo de su Evangelio... Vino, pero nunca se instaló. Jesús pasa: la expresión aparece cien veces en la pluma de los que fijaron por escrito la Buena Nueva, pasa haciendo el bien; acuden a él, le escuchan, quisieran retenerle, pero él se escapa. Tiene que ir más lejos, hacia otras ciudades, hacia otros pueblos. Le buscan, recurren a él, le piden un momento de atención, un gesto caritativo; Jesús responde, pero con discreción, sin fastos, y pide que no divulguen su presencia, porque no quiere que le retengan, a fin de retomar el camino hacia ...
