00:00In which saints can we find this gift of knowledge as a manifestation of God's presence?
00:20In all saints, it is true, both the learned and the unlearned,
00:25The gift of knowledge has always shone through which the visible world becomes a revelation of God.
00:34The world is no longer a burden, a distraction, or a temptation for them.
00:41but rather it becomes for them a wonderful stepping stone towards perfect union with God.
00:48Saint Francis of Assisi, for example, embraced all things with unspeakable affectionate devotion.
00:58He spoke to them about the Lord and urged them to praise him.
01:03He left the lights, lamps, and candles on, not wanting to extinguish them with his hand.
01:12the clarity that was a symbol of eternal light to him.
01:18He walked reverently upon the stones in reverence for him who called himself rock.
01:26But how to say it all?
01:29He who is the source of all goodness, He who will be all in all things,
01:35Our saint was also communicated in all things.
01:39Through the precious gift of knowledge, all the saints, like the poor man,
01:47They have found God in creatures
01:50and they have been deeply moved by the beauty of the visible world.
01:57Saint John of the Cross, for example, at once mystic and poet,
02:02There are no words to express these wonders revealed by the gift of science.
02:09The soul begins its spiritual journey
02:13out of consideration and knowledge of the creatures
02:17to the knowledge of their beloved creator.
02:21Because after the exercise of self-knowledge,
02:27This consideration of creatures is the first step on this spiritual path.
02:33And although God does many things through other hands,
02:41as of angels or men,
02:44This thing that is creating, she never did it nor does she do it for anyone other than her own.
02:51And so, the soul is greatly moved by the love of its beloved God
02:57out of consideration for creatures,
03:00seeing that they are things that were made by his own hand.
03:08The gift of science reveals, in a very special way,
03:11the fascinating beauty of the human soul
03:15who is in divine grace.
03:19Regarding this, Saint Catherine of Siena told Blessed Raymond, her director,
03:25Lord, my Father, if you could see the charm of a rational soul,
03:32I have no doubt whatsoever that I would give my life a hundred times over for the health of that soul,
03:38because in this world there is nothing that can equal such beauty.
03:45And Saint Teresa said the same thing,
03:46The soul of the righteous is a paradise, as he who has his delights says,
03:54I can find nothing to compare the great beauty of a soul to.
04:00And Saint John of the Cross,
04:03Oh most beautiful soul among all creatures.
04:07But at the same time as this grandeur and beauty of the creatures,
04:13The gift of knowledge reveals the profound vanity of the present world,
04:17That is why the saints have always understood with evidence
04:21that all things on earth and in heaven are compared to God,
04:27They are nothing.
04:29Indeed, the entire being of creatures,
04:33compared to the infinite being of God,
04:35Nothing is, and therefore the soul that places its disordered affection in them
04:43Before God, he is also nothing and less than nothing.
04:50The gift of knowledge in this way,
04:53perfecting the faith,
04:56It disillusions the spiritual man from all fascinations and lies.
05:01with which the world deceives worldly men.
05:05The fascinations that the world exerts on men are indescribable,
05:15also about so many Christians.
05:17The result of being fascinated by worldly things with hints of idolatry
05:34or the ultimate end desired by foolish men,
05:38We see it clearly in Sacred Scripture,
05:42in the prophet Jeremiah, chapter 4.
05:45Let's look at the word of God.
05:50It says in verse 22,
05:52How foolish are my people that they do not recognize me?
05:57They are foolish creatures,
06:00They lack talent,
06:04They are wise for evil.
06:06and fools for good things.
06:09Saint Teresa of Jesus
06:15through the gift of knowledge
06:18captured with particular clarity
06:20this general deception in which men live.
06:24She sees everything upside down
06:27from how worldly people see it
06:29or how she saw it before
06:32And that's why it hurts when he thinks about his old life.
06:38You see, it's a huge lie.
06:40and that we are all in it.
06:44Laugh at yourself
06:45from the time when I had something
06:47their money and their greed.
06:50And there is no one left who lives.
06:53seeing with our own eyes
06:55the great deception we are living in
06:58and the blindness we bring.
07:02Assisted by the gift of knowledge
07:05the perfect Christian
07:08Saint Teresa specifically
07:10see the lie in things
07:13most esteemed by the world
07:14and also many times
07:17by the same pious Christians.
07:21This gift, the gift of knowledge
07:23It also shows sin
07:25however hidden
07:27that is in common and general practice.
07:32The saint distinguishes with complete certainty
07:36and ease
07:37that which offends God
07:39and he dislikes it
07:40which is contrary to the gospel
07:43however accepted it may be in the world
07:46and among the Christians themselves
07:49customs, fashions, criteria, shows, etc.
07:56And he manages to see
07:59Go with a luminous spiritual science
08:03absolute vanity
08:06of everything that in the world
08:08It is not commanded to God.
08:12See how the creatures
08:14not finished in its creator
08:17no matter how much they inflate and pretend
08:21on television and in the press
08:24whether in society
08:26whether in the same world as the church
08:29They are nothing
08:30less than nothing
08:32however great its brilliance and splendor
08:35He sees it
08:37He sees it perfectly clearly.
08:39because the Lord himself
08:41He shows it to her.
08:43The saint
08:45through the gift of knowledge
08:47It amounts to being disillusioned
08:50of collective deception
08:51that is to say
08:53wake up
08:55of sleep
08:56that supported him
08:57spiritually asleep
08:59like so many others.
09:03Spiritual experiences
09:05similar to the gift of knowledge
09:07equally impressive
09:09We found them in Saint Catherine of Siena
09:12account
09:13the blessed
09:14Raymond of Capua
09:17Dominican director of his
09:18once the Lord Jesus Christ
09:21She appears to Saint Catherine
09:24and tells him
09:25Do you know, daughter?
09:27who are you
09:29And who am I?
09:31If you ever find out these two things
09:34You will be blessed
09:36You are the one who is not
09:39I, on the other hand
09:41I am who I am.
09:44From this premise
09:46part of the entire spiritual doctrine
09:49from this doctor.
09:51If the soul
09:52said
09:53knows that by herself
09:55which is nothing
09:57and that he owes everything to the Lord
09:59It turns out he no longer trusts his operations
10:03but only in God's.
10:05Therefore
10:07the soul directs
10:08your entire application
10:10him.
10:12To such an extent
10:14spiritual clarity arrives
10:16superhuman
10:17of Catherine
10:18and the reference
10:20continues
10:21that she
10:22played the creature
10:23to its creator
10:24that I saw
10:26she in men
10:27more clearly
10:29their souls
10:29than their bodies.
10:30that's what he had asked.
10:33she to the Lord
10:34and the Lord
10:35He granted it to him
10:36and grace
10:38of this gift
10:39testifies
10:40Blessed Raymond
10:41It was so effective
10:44and persevering
10:45that from then on
10:47Catalina
10:48met
10:49better
10:50that the bodies
10:51the operations
10:52and the nature
10:54of all souls
10:55which he approached.
10:57Once
11:00when I told him
11:01alone
11:02that some
11:03they murmured
11:04because they had seen
11:05to men
11:06and to women
11:06kneeling
11:08before her
11:08without her
11:10prevented it
11:10he answered me
11:11The Lord knows
11:13that I little
11:15or nothing
11:15I see the movements
11:17who I have close
11:18I'm so busy
11:21reading their souls
11:22I don't notice.
11:24not at all
11:24in their bodies
11:25then I asked him
11:28Do you see?
11:29their souls?
11:31And she answered me
11:32father
11:34I'll reveal it to you now.
11:36in confession
11:36that since
11:38my Savior
11:38granted me
11:39grace
11:40to release
11:42to a certain soul
11:43does not appear
11:45hardly ever
11:46before me
11:46nobody
11:48whose
11:48don't guess
11:49the state
11:50of his soul.
11:53I will give a confirmation
11:55from this
11:55that I said
11:56memory
11:57what did I do
11:59interpreter
12:00between the highest
12:02pontiff
12:02Gregory
12:04eleventh
12:06fondly remembered
12:07and our
12:08Holy Virgin
12:09because she
12:11I didn't know
12:12Latin
12:12and the pontiff
12:14I didn't know Italian
12:15while we were talking
12:18the Blessed Virgin
12:19he lamented
12:20about what
12:21in the Roman Curia
12:22where it should
12:23to have a paradise
12:24of heavenly virtues
12:25It smelled
12:27the stench
12:28of vices
12:29from hell
12:29the pontiff
12:31upon hearing it
12:33he asked me
12:35how long
12:36toward
12:36who had arrived
12:37she
12:37to the curia
12:38when he found out
12:40that he had
12:41made
12:42a few days
12:43before
12:43responded
12:45as in so little
12:46time
12:47have you been able
12:48know
12:48customs
12:50of the Roman Curia
12:51so
