Popis: | Christians confess their faith in God the Creator of heaven and earth. The question is whether they have a different relationship to creation than those who do not look on creation in the light of faith in God the Creator. The majority is unaware that the fullness of Christian spirituality is lacking if the fruit of it does not include a greater ecological awareness manifesting in concrete care for a common home. The Catholic Church has long delayed the publication of official documents that promote environmental concerns. This restraint was overcome by Pope Francis through his encyclical Laudato sì, in which he highlighted the problems of ecological insecurity and a certain indifference of many Christians in relation to the environment. The pope addressed the encyclical to the whole of humankind, because he wanted to call all people to unite in a repeated common search and realization of concrete care for our common home. In this paper the author wants to first present the pope’s criticism and encouragement in regard to solving the ecological crisis. Then he will present a way of ecological spirituality, to which he is inviting all humanity, and especially Catholics. At the end he will present two spiritual means, offered by Ignatian Spirituality (contemplation, exsamen), that enable a new relationship toward creation, which ecological spirituality is encouraging. Kršćani ispovijedaju svoju vjeru u Boga Stvoritelja neba i zemlje. Pitanje je imaju li kršćani drukčiji odnos prema stvaranju od onih koji ne gledaju na stvaranje u svjetlu vjere u Boga Stvoritelja. Većina ljudi nije svjesna činjenice da im izostaje punoća kršćanske duhovnosti ako njezin plod ne uključuje veću ekološku osviještenost koja se očituje u konkretnoj brizi za naš zajednički dom. Katolička je crkva dugo odgađala objavljivanje službenih dokumenata koji potiču vođenje brige o okolišu. Ovo oklijevanje nadvladao je papa Franjo u svojoj enciklici »Laudato sì«, u kojoj naglašava probleme ekološke nesigurnosti i indiferentnost mnogih kršćana u odnosu prema okolišu. Papa je uputio ovu encikliku čitavom čovječanstvu zato što je želio pozvati sve ljude da se ujedine u zajedničkom traženju i ostvarenju konkretne brige za naš zajednički dom. U ovom radu autor najprije želi predočiti Papinu kritiku, ali i ohrabrenje u rješavanju ekološke krize. Autor zatim govori o putu ekološke duhovnosti na koju je pozvano cijelo čovječanstvo, a osobito katolici. Na kraju autor donosi dva duhovna sredstva koja nam nudi ignacijevska duhovnosti (kontemplacija, egzamen), a koja će nam omogućiti nov odnos prema stvaranju koji ohrabruje ekološka duhovnost. |
