In his book “Homo Deus,” Yuval Noah Harari makes us rethink the developments in science and technology, as well as the rise to dominance of Homo sapiens.
This Sunday’s readings remind us of the graces of detachment and indifference. As the Gospel counsels, “Take care! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of possessions.”
There are two themes we can reflect on in this Sunday’s Gospel: forgiveness, and the prayer of petition. Let me propose reflecting on them from the perspective of gratitude.
“Equanimity” is one of the favorite words of my other spiritual director and philosophy teacher, Fr. Frank Reilly, S.J. He would always describe it as a state of being that one should aspire for.
Time and again, I go back to Fr. James Keenan’s definition of mercy or compassion as entering the chaos of another and helping him/her make meaning out of the chaos.
