A Message from Fr. Sebastian’s Desk: Mystery of Transfiguration There is a relief in the mind of the reader or audience when the truth behind a mystery or detective series is unveiled in the end or at some stage of the narration. The poignant question about who really was Jesus, with regard to His suffering, is a problem in the mind of the general public during His earthly life. The apostles were no exception to this. The question of Jesus to them at Caesarea Philippi best describes this: Who do you say that I am? Only Simon could come up with the answer, in fact it was revealed to him, and that resulted in him being proclaimed the first among the apostles. But the journey of the apostles to that realization was an arduous and hard one in reality. The mystery surrounding Jesus is revealed to the select trio among the apostles on Mount Tabore where He revealed His glory in a glimpse. The Old Testament was about to give way to the Good News in and through Jesus Christ. This is the symbolism of Transfiguration to us. Moses, the renowned lawgiver, and Elijah the Prophet stood in awe before Him. Moses and Elijah represented the whole of the Old Testament: the Law and the Prophets. They vanish and Jesus in his dazzling glory emerges to the forefront as the one who fulfills Law and the Prophets. Jesus very well knew that the apostles would grasp the reality only by and by after the Transfiguration, only after the Resurrection. And we know, despite these epiphanies in the life of the apostles, they were the ones to desert Him in moments of agony and crucifixion. In Greek drama, especially the Tragedies, there is a resultant purification in the mind of the audience after witnessing the pain and suffering on the stage. It is called ‘catharsis.’ In the words of John Milton, the English poet, the resulting peace in mind is a state of ‘calm of mind all passions spent.’ What will be our attitude towards the Passion, the Suffering and the Crucifixion of Jesus as we go through them during this Lent? It is not just the psychological exercise, a catharsis, but a journey, a way of the Cross with him to join Him in his Resurrec- tion and Ascension. It is the privileged vision of Transfiguration for us to witness through our willingness to be with Him once again. Wish you all a journey with the Lord through the mystery of Transfiguration. Fr. Sebastian T. Augustine, CMI Pastor
Un Mensaje del Padre Sebastian: Misterio de la Transfiguración Hay un alivio en la mente del lector o de la audiencia cuando la verdad detrás de un misterio o una serie de detectives se revela al final o en alguna etapa de la narración. La conmovedora pregunta acerca de quién fue realmente Jesús, con respecto a Su sufrimiento, es un problema en la mente del público en general durante Su vida terrenal. Los apóstoles no fueron una excepción a esto. La pregunta de Jesús a ellos en Cesarea de Filipo describe mejor esto: ¿Quién decís que soy? Solo Simón pudo dar la respuesta, de hecho le fue revelada, y eso resultó en que él fuera proclamado el primero entre los apóstoles. Pero el camino de los apóstoles hacia esa realización fue arduo y duro en realidad. El misterio que rodea a Jesús se revela al trío selecto entre los apóstoles en el monte Tabore, donde Él reveló Su gloria en un vistazo. El Antiguo Testamento estaba a punto de dar paso a la Buena Nueva en y por Jesucristo. Este es el simbolismo de la Transfiguración para nosotros. Moisés, el renombrado legislador, y Elías el profeta estaban asombrados ante él. Moisés y Elías representaron todo el Antiguo Testamento: la Ley y los Profetas. Se desvanecen y Jesús en su gloria deslumbrante emerge a la vanguardia como el que cumple la Ley y los Profetas. Jesús sabía muy bien que los apóstoles captarían la realidad solo después de la Transfiguración, solo después de la Resurrección. Y sabemos, a pesar de estas epifanías en la vida de los apóstoles, ellos fueron los que lo abandonaron en momentos de agonía y crucifixión. En el drama griego, especialmente en las Tragedias, hay una purificación resultante en la mente del público después de presenciar el dolor y el sufrimiento en el escenario. Se llama 'catarsis'. En palabras del poeta inglés John Milton, la paz mental resultante es un estado de 'calma mental con todas las pasiones gastadas'. ¿Cuál será nuestra actitud hacia la Pasión, el Sufrimiento y la Crucifixión? de Jesús al pasar por ellos durante esta Cuaresma? No es solo el ejercicio psicológico, una catarsis, sino un camino, un camino de la Cruz con él para acompañarlo en su Resurrección y Ascensión. Es la visión privilegiada de la Transfiguración que testifiquemos a través de nuestra voluntad de estar con Él una vez más. Les deseo a todos un viaje con el Señor a través del misterio de la Transfiguración. Padre Sebastian T. Augustine, CMI Pastor
