Lukaszewski, Pawel

Mass of the New Aeon Perhaps the factor that most profoundly undermines the
roots of religion is the belief that the revelation in time and space will
end. Many mystics of different religious traditions for thousands of years
have been witnesses to another insight: That their roads were not mere
exploration of what has been transmitted, but a continuation of the
revelation, whose aim is the uniting, releasing and deification (theosis) of
everything in God. The text of this mass comes out of this assumption, and
inspired by the tradition that the Apostle of the Apostles (as Augustine
himself called her) did not start, or complete, her mission only in
historical time two thousand years ago. The strength of her great spirit was
and is present in human history in many other ways, in time and space as the
beloved disciple of the Master of Nazareth, whom only she greeted with a kiss
on the mouth and it is she who became an essential flame that brought about
the rise of that never setting sun, to ignite his heart in boundless love for
all people and the world. The Roman Catholic church rightly reveres her as
the Chosen, which even before the Circle of Twelve, as she was the first
allowed to see the Risen Lord in his new form. I am full of admiration for
this great composition by Pawe ukaszewski, whose expression fantastically
senses the dynamics of the events expressed in the text of the mass.
Likewise, his compositional work is a part of this never-ending process of
revelation, until ''God may be all in all'' (cf. 1 Cor 15, 28). Jacek M.

theology of spirituality and worked for many years as a Catholic priest in
Switzerland. The focus of his research is the mysticism of world religions,
alchemy and esotericism. He has lived in Wrocaw since Autumn 2010, where he

workshops about meditation and the transformation of consciousness.
