Living A Sublime Life in a Vulgar World
Manage episode 377742840 series 2792862
Personally, I love a beautiful, reverent liturgy. It is a source of great love, devotion, and transcendence of the mind and heart to the things of God. But what good is a beautiful Sunday liturgy, what good is the thousands of years of refinement, what good is the most sublime of prayers, if that magnanimity of soul only exists for an hour a two a week. If every other moment of your week is dedicated to the vulgar, what good is beauty? So today I want to help you to recognize the vulgarity of the world and implore you to reject it in favor of a sublime life.
In my appeal I do want to emphasize that this is NOT an on and off switch that we can just reject all things vulgar without a special grace from our Lady. I myself fall into many of the habits of the Vulgar World. Living a sublime life is like any virtue, it takes time, the will to change, and repetition. So please do not feel that you are being personally attacked by anything said today, every aspect applies to me as well.
Before I finish my introduction I want to give everyone an outline, in hopes it will help you to remember at least some aspects of the talk.
First, I want to expose the vulgar-egalitarian revolution for what it is. To show you that it is present in every aspect of our lives. I will be focusing on clothing, language, food, and actions. Much more could be said about movies, books, music, etc. but perhaps for a future date.
Second, I will explain what I mean by the sublime life. How is sublimity differentiated from beauty? I will demonstrate that to live a sublime life is to live a divine life, which necessitates being an anti-egalitarian. I will give examples of what this looks like in real life and prove that our exterior life reflects and affects our interior life.
Thirdly, and most importantly I will conclude with Our Lady as the exemplar of the sublime life.
Finally, as I conclude my introduction with an invocation to Our Lady and to the Angels, that they may lift our minds and hearts to heavenly things and fill us with a desire for the sublime and a hatred for what is vulgar.
The attire of the body and the laughter of the teeth and the gait of the man show what he is. (Ecclesiasticus 19:27)
