"The Splendor of Saint Ignatius of Loyola - Painting by Dino Carbetta" ...

Saint Ignatius of Loyola, founder of the Jesuits, was destined for military fame until a cannonball shattered his leg. During his recovery, he read about Christ and the saints, deeply touching his conscience and sparking his conversion to Christ. Inspired by a vision of the Mother of God, Ignatius made a pilgrimage to her shrine at Montserrat near Barcelona. He spent nearly a year at Manresa, living with Dominicans, in a pauper’s hospice, or a cave, praying and writing material that became his greatest work, the Spiritual Exercises. The Turks thwarted his desire to visit the Holy Land, leading him to spend 11 years studying at European universities. His orthodoxy was questioned, and he was twice jailed. In 1534, at age 43, Ignatius and six companions, including Saint Francis Xavier, vowed poverty, chastity, and service to the pope. Four years later, the Society of Jesus was approved by Pope Paul III, and Ignatius became its first general. As a mystic, Ignatius centered his spiritual life on the Trinity, Christ, and the Eucharist. The Jesuit motto, "Ad majorem Dei gloriam" (“for the greater glory of God”), reflects his spirituality. Obedience was crucial for Ignatius, ensuring the effectiveness and mobility of his men. "All activities were guided by love for the Church and obedience to the Holy Father, with members taking a fourth vow to go wherever the Pope sent them." Although a staunch opponent of Protestantism, Ignatius advocated for presenting orthodox truth with charity and moderation, avoiding harsh words and contempt for errors. This painting captures Ignatius's profound spiritual journey, deep devotion, and significant contributions to the Catholic Reformation, epitomizing his mystical vision and tireless work for the greater glory of God. "The Splendor of Saint Ignatius of Loyola" captures the profound spiritual journey and devotion of Saint Ignatius in intricate detail.
