the Personal Vocation: Transformation in depth through the Spiritual Exercises

by Herbert Alphonso

This little work is born of a profound personal spiritual experience had in 1965. Shared literally around the world notably through the ministry of spiritual direction within and outside the experience of the Ignatian Spiritual Exercises, it is here communicated for the first time in writing. It has to do with the discernment and living out of that deepest core of being that is a person's truest self and unrepeatable uniqueness - the secret of unity and integration at the heart of a person's life, his/her unique God-given meaning in life, centred in Christ Jesus. No wonder it results in all-round transformation in depth, opening out most effectively onto social responsibility and commitment in Christian life and mission.
