As a follow up to the Thomas Merton Seminar organised by The Carmelite Institute Malta in collaboration with the Society of Christian Doctrine commemorating Merton’s life and legacy as a major contemporary Christian writer and mystic, Carmelite Priory Mdina will host a public lecture and discussion by Prof. Michael Zammit on learning how to renounce resentment.

Professor ZammitMichael Zammit is Associate Professor in the Department of Philosophy of The University of Malta. His classes on Plato, Plotinus, Boethius and Marsilio Ficino are balanced off by his other interests involving the Philosophical Notions of the Sanskrit, Advaita Vedanta Philosophy, The Bhagavad Gita and Introductions to both Hindu and Buddhist Philosophies. Among other publications and papers he translated Plato’s Apology and The Bhagavad Gita into Maltese.

Thomas Merton


Is-sena 2015 timmarka għeluq il-100 sena mit-twelid ta’ Thomas Merton, Monaku Trappista, kittieb prolifiku u magħruf dwar il-ħajja spiritwali u mistika li ħalla marka fuq il-ħajja spiritwali ta’ ħafna fis-seklu għoxrin sa żmienna.

Thomas Merton

Merton bl-esperjenza mistika tiegħu u b’kitbietu kien ukoll għodda li tmexxi ’l quddiem id-djalogu bejn it-tradizzjoni mistika nisranija u dik tal-Lvant Imbiegħed b’rabtiet mal-Buddiżmu, l-Induwiżmu u l-bqija.

Merton kien ukoll attivista fejn tidħol il-promozzjoni tal-Paċi fid-dinja u b’kitbietu reġà tefgħalna ħarsitna dwar l-impatt politiku u soċjali tal-esperjenza mistika tal-bniedem magħqud ma’ Alla. Matul din is-sena saru diversi attivitajiet li fakkru dan il-ġgant tal-letteratura spiritwali u mistika fis-seklu għoxrin. Is-Soċjetà tad-Duttrina Nisranija flimkien mal-Carmelite Institute Malta se nfakkru lil Thomas Marton b’seminar bejn il-21 u t-22 ta’ Novembru bl-għan li niskopru mill-ġdid dan l-awtur u kitbietu li huma tant attwali għal żminijietna.

It-taħdidiet isiru bil-Malti u min beħsiebu jieħu sehem jeħtieġlu jibbukkja post billi jikkuntattja l-organiżżaturi fuq info@carmelitepriroy.org; carmeliteinstitute@gmail.com jew sdcmuseum@gmail.com
