Abstract

One of the main projects of postcolonial critique has been the recovery of losing or forgotten identity surpassed by colonial power. Postcolonial discourses urge to rescue the colonialized subjects from the trap of colonialized identity. The belief of racial defect lived out by the colonized subjects, for instance, is one of the colonial products  accomplished during the time of colonialism.  Therefore, deconstruction of colonized identity needs to be done in order to bring the colonized subjects to live in their own history. This postcolonial project should become one of theological agendas today that helps individuals to live confidently in post-colonial time. The urgency of Postcolonial Theology is inevitable especially when we realize that our world is recolonizing, taking in a new way: neocolonialism. Key Words:*Alienation *Boundary *Deconstruction *Home *Hybridity*Imperialism *Inferior *Colonialism *Neocolonialism *Postcolonialism *Subaltern.

Abstract

For the Christians in Java, being cultural persons has been taken for granted in their daily life, but being church members is something that they are learning and realising in their participation in the church community. This distinction emerges when the faithful are committing themselves to the church along their journey through the sociocultural reality. In the ‘new’ community, which in the context of this article is the church, they see their being cultural persons in a different way and reimagine their identity in the daily experiences and the encounters with others. This article is an effort to listen to the believers’ imagination by considering their sociocultural images in imagining the church from within their local perspectives. Doing ecclesiology in this way is a journey to accompany and to listen to the local believers in search of their own ‘church’. The author puts the survey among the Catholics in two parishes in West and Central Java and the analysis of its results within the context of doing contextual theology of the church by qualitatively and intuitively exploring the local believers’ cultural images. Key Words:*Images, *Cultural images, *Church images, *Imagination, *Imagerial preference, *Participation, *Contextual and meaningful images, *Culturally embedded images Ecclesiology.

Abstract

Ketika keindahan dipindahkan kedalam galeri dalam bentuk apapun, ia memang menjadi sesuatu yang terbaca agak jelas, ternikmati, namun tetap saja ia adalah keindahan yang bisa diperdebatkan. Hanya keindahan yang dibiarkan berserakan di luar galeri, dalam bentuk arkhaiknya, ia adalah keindahan yang tak terdebatkan. Film ini mencoba untuk setia pada sumber keindahan itu sendiri: hidup, tak peduli betapa muram, suram, dan ganjil geliat hidup itu sendiri. Itulah mengapa film ini diberi judul “Biutiful”, yaitu menuliskan “Beautiful” sebagaimana kata ini diucapkan. Keindahan hidup, sebuah keindahan sebagaimana adanya, sebagaimana dirasakan, sebagaimana diucapkan.

Abstract

Henri de Lubac was one of the many theologians who have brought new dynamics in theology through his interpretation of the theology and the philosophy of Thomas Aquinas. This paper wants to explore his contributions to the methods of theologizing in the church. De Lubac’s interpretation of the relation between the natural and the supernatural supports the movement “Nouvelle Théologie” that appreciates the mysterious aspects of God as understood through the Christian Scriptures and traditions. According to de Lubac’s interpretations of Thomas Aquinas, the seeds of the supernatural are already present in the natural within the human beings. The author argues that hermeneutics and correlation are two important methods that underlie de Lubac’s ideas in putting the Scriptures as the main source of the theology insofar as the Scriptures are linked with human experience and reality. The return to theology is the return to the Scriptures and tradition, but this is always in relation to the human experiences and the contemporary world situations. Key Words:*Neo-scholasticism, *Nouvelle Théologie, *The natural, *The supernatural, *Ressourcement, *Nature, *Potency, *Grace, *Anagogy, *Experience, *Tradition, *Hermeneutics, *Correlation.

Abstract

Natalie Portman berakting dan menari dalam kondisinya yang dasyat. Lawan mainnya, Mila Kunis dan Vincent Cassel, memberikan respon yang juga tak kalah memukaunya. Bahkan pemeran pembantu (Wynona Rider), memberikan kilasan-kilasan akting yang membuat penonton menghasrati: “berikan durasi dan spasi yang lebih!”. Darren Aronofsky memang sutradara yang dikenal piawai berurusan dengan para aktor film-filmnya, ditangannya sebuah batu bisa menjadi sebuah berlian (ingatlah lagi akting Ellen Burstyn dalam “Requiem for a Dream” dan “The Fountain” atau Mickey Rourke dalam “The Wrestler”). Koreografinya tidak menciptakan gerakan-gerakan yang tidak perlu. Mise-en-scene nya pun tertata dengan apik dan efektif. Kamera berhasil menciptakan atmosphere mencekam dan tak terduga. Namun ada sebuah pertanyaan yang tersisa: apakah semua itu bisa menyelamatkan cerita?

Abstract

The paper studies the essence and doctrinaire interpretation of ‘transcendence’ from the religious perspective covering the creeds of Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity, Islam, Sikhism and Baha’i. The paper also reviews the philosophical roots of ‘transcendence’ discussing its original definition, the medieval usage, colloquial usage, transcendent theosophy and the Kantian and modern philosophy of transcendence within which the views of Socrates, Plato, David Hume, Mulla Sadra, Jean-Paul Sartre and Stephen Palmquist, were brought to bear on the discourse. Essentially, the paper contends that there is an eternal scuffle that is taking place between higher and lower forces and the main arena of this struggle is in the human mind as encased in the human body. The paper furthers that in every individual, there is the tri-unity of the senses, the soul and the spirit. The senses are as imbedded in the human body with the sense of touch, taste, sight, sound and smell; the soul is the essence of man’s existence here on earth while the spirit is a spark of God in human. In its journey on earth, the soul continually utilizes the mind in choosing between the essence of the soft whispers of the spirit and the compelling demands of the senses. The soul is, therefore, constantly caught between these two forces; and this is what is dubbed the Battle of Evermore. The author holds that this second-by-second non-violent eternal conflict takes place in all human beings irrespective of color or creed and station or location on earth. Ascendancy in the single super consciousness of the ethereal is a direct product of the cumulative of the degree to which the soul defeats the compulsions of the senses. That, the paper concludes, is the essence of transcendence. Key Words:*Transcendence, *Human mind, *Senses, *Soul, *Spirit, *Philosophical perspective, *Religious perspective, *Transcendent theosophy, *The end of transcendence, *Personal enterprise, *Universal phenomenon.

Abstract

Mystagogy has been recognized as an archaic word which was revived and developed after the Second Vatican Council. The Council begins to facilitate some pastoral concerns on the baptism for adults. The meaning of mystagogy is even more enlarged not only in the scope of liturgical teachings and rites of initiation. It also covers daily life of the faithful in every age and society. This article will present how the dynamic application of the mystagogical process helps clarify the connection between mystagogy and daily experiences of the faithful. Mystagogy is still ‘at work’ and continues to develop in the praxis of faith. Inspired by some theological approaches, the second part of this writing will discuss the connection between mystical sense and daily experience. The author will portray the relations ‘between the mystagogue and the myste’ and ‘between the myste and God’ towards the mystery of faith, before exploring mystagogy in daily experiences within the contexts of mystery and self-transcendence. An extended application of this reinterpretation will be offered in the last section to lead towards transformation through the daily experiences. Key Words:*Mystagogy *Catechesis *Pedagogy *Discipleship *The myste *Mystical experience *Daily life experience *Transformation *Self-transcendence *Spiritual journey.
