  • Arsenie Boca
    -ARSENIE BOCA- Este considerat de mulţi credincioşi drept „ultimul sfânt al românilor“. Duhovnicul Arsenie Boca şi-a dus viaţa printre fapte considerate miracole de cei care le-au văzut şi vorbe cu tâlc, balansându-se între renumele profetic şi durerile simţite în temniţele comuniste. „Într-o zi, oamenii i s-au plâns: «Părinte, nu mai avem nisip de construcţie, ce ne facem? Numa dacă s-ar abate râul ăsta din loc, am mai putea găsi ceva nisip...». Părintele s-a dus în deal, pe apă, la vreo douăzeci de metri, şi s-a lăsat în genunchi. A făcut rugăciunea câteva ore. Şi, vă jur!, asta am văzut-o cu ochii mei, spre seară, apa a intrat în pământ şi a ieşit puţin mai încolo, lăsând la suprafaţă un nisip fin, strălucitor ca argintul. Muncitorii s-au închinat cu toţii, speriaţi, nevenindu-le să-şi creadă ochilor. «Rugaţi-vă, postiţi şi veţi putea şi voi!», le- a spus tuturor.“ Astfel de istorii, precum cea spusă de muncitorii care lucraseră la refacerea mănăstirii din localitate, puteau fi auzite, la Prislop, pe 28 noiembrie 1989. Atunci, toţi cei prezenţi acolo, proveniţi din toate zonele ţării, înfriguraţi de la vremea de afară şi extenuaţi de lipsurile unui regim politic ce mai avea de supravieţuit mai puţin de o lună, participau la ceva mai mult decât o înmormântare. Senzaţia era că România a pierdut un sfânt, o persoană în relaţie directă cu divinul, un făcător de minuni. Din sicriu, trupul lui Arsenie Boca trăda perioadele lungi de interogatorii, anchete şi întemniţări, al căror subiect fusese încă din anii 1950.

  • Father André Scrima – a New Kind of Fool for Christ Marius
    M!"#$% V!%#&'!($* !e complex and often puzzling personality of Father André Scrima was misapprehended for a long time. !is article discusses the reasons for such a misapprehension and o"ers some possible explanations for his paradoxical behaviour. An overview of the reception of Father Scrima’s life and works shows a dynamic at work that can only generate optimism. His participation in the Burning Bush group at the Antim monastery in Bucharest was one of the most important formative experiences, where a wide cultural and scienti#c perspective was fused with an in- depth religious experience. Father Scrima may be better understood if we consider him the #rst of a new kind of fools for Christ, a kind that is well-equipped to face the challenges of tomorrow. Keywords: André Scrima, Daniil Sandu Tudor, !e Burning Bush, foolishness for Christ, hesychasm He was a man that would experience the enthusiasm of a child when a new decimal of a universal constant was discovered. He used to tame an unbro- ken sacred text in a generous hermeneutics by o!ering it the "re of certain astrophysical theories and blending them with the phenomenology of the opening one’s heart in a hesychastic manner. Could this be the reason why the impressive erudition of Father André Scrima is still hard to accept and to understand in the Orthodox ecclesiastical environment? Our hypothesis that will be dealt with in the current paper is that all the things mentioned above are not enough to explain his misapprehension: most likely, Father André Scrima was the "rst person belonging to a new kind of fool for Christ.

  • Positions Towards a Multiple Knowledge of God
    POSITIONS TOWARDS A MULTIPLE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD: INTERPRETING THE RELIGIOUS EXPERIENCE IN AN ORTHODOX CHURCH By Carmen Maria Manea Submitted to Central European University Department of Sociology and Social Anthropology In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Supervisors: Prof. Vlad Naumescu Prof. Marianne Saghy CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2015 ABSTRACT Current debates on religious knowledge could be characterized, with the risk of essentializing their methods and outcomes, as divided between a classical path opened by Weber and Durkheim and a modern tendency to pull apart the chains of 19 and early 20th century scholarly traditions by contesting their methodological foundations and/or religious and ethical standpoints. The ethical, political and belief foundations of the “intellectualist” British anthropology of religion had a strong impact on the subsequent development of the social studies on religion and kept a breach between anthropology and theology. Only with the writings of Evans-Pritchard, Mary Douglas and the efforts of Victor and Edith Turner to bring Christian beliefs, experiences and emotions to the attention of anthropology beside phenomenological explanations, did anthropology make a significant step in getting closer to theological studies. These will all be contrasted with my own positionality in what concerns the knowledge about God and the subsequent reading of the experiences, religious practices and language used by the members of the Romanian monastery (Budapest) to show their own understanding of God as He is, as He manifests His presence or as He makes himself knowable to the believer. Thus, this work could be marked as an experiment, albeit all its faults, in an ethnography of spirituality and in self-reflexivity.

  • Religious-Moral Tenets in the Sermos of Father Arsenie Boca
    ICOANA CREDINȚEI No. 9, Year 5/2019 RELIGIOUS-MORAL TENETS IN THE SERMONS OF FATHER ARSENIE BOCA Ph.D. Nicușor BELDIMAN, “Faculty of Orthodox Theology ,,Justinian Patriarch”, University of Bucharest, ROMANIA, E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The present paper is centred on one of the outstanding figures of 20th-century Romanian preaching: Father Arsenie Boca, a great spiritual director, greatly revered by the Romanian people both in his lifetime and today, and a victim of communist persecutions. A brief biography is followed by a synthetic presentation of the religious-moral tenets put forth in his sermons: the Christian outlook on life (balance; attitude towards life; decision making; true freedom; the vice of idleness; rules to be followed in a Christian’s life), a wide array of issues related to the family life (the sanctity of matrimony; the problem of abortions; family planning; the relationship between generations in the family line) or to pastoral activity (the relationship between a confessor and the young to be guided towards a meaningful life). Through all his efforts in the service of the Romanian Church and nation, Father Arsenie Boca stood out as a distinguished spiritual director, a guide of the souls and a convincing missionary. Keywords: Father Arsenie Boca; religious-moral; spiritual; confessor; PRELIMINARY CONSIDERATIONS Preaching played a major role in safeguarding Orthodoxy in Romania, and in the development of the national language and culture, as note all the treatises of history of Romanian language and literature. Also, sermon preaching is acknowledged as an important factor in maintaining the national consciousness or Romanians on both sides of the Carpathian mountains.
