- Title
Educar en el sentido de reverencia Actualidad del pensamiento religioso educativo de Abraham Joshua Heschel.
- Authors
Aguilar Sahagún, Luis Armando
- Abstract
The author follows Heschel. He proposes an education which reaches the intimate life of the person, one's empathy and reverence for others, calling attention to the grandeur and mystery there is in everything and relating the common with the spiritual. Important are good perception, consistent thought and prayer linked to human dignity. Religion has become irrelevant; it has substituted faith for belief, worship for discipline and love for habit. Religion is prophetic. It is religion's task to ennoble human nature, teach us to look at one another eye to eye to discover there the image of transcendence which is gift and grace, urgency and call.
