CAPITULO TERCERO Articulo 9
CREO EN LA SANTA IGLESIA CATOLICA
LA VIDA CONSAGRADA
“El estado de la vida que consiste en la profesión de los consejos
evangélicos, aunque no pertenezca a la estructura jerárquica de la
Iglesia, pertenece sin embargo indiscutiblemente a su vida y a su
santidad.
CONSEJOS EVENGELICOS, VIDA CONSAGRADA, los consejos
evangélicos están propuestos en su multiplicidad a todos los discípulos de Cristo. La perfección de la caridad a la cual son llamados todos
los fieles implica, para quienes asumen libremente el llamamiento a la
vida consagrada, la obligación de practicar la castidad en el celibato
por el Reino, la pobreza y la obediencia. La profesión de estos consejos en un estado de vida estable reconocido por la Iglesia es lo que
caracteriza la “vida consagrada’ a Dios. El estado religioso aparece
por consiguiente como una de las maneras de vivir una consagración
“mas intima” que tiene su raíz en el bautismo y se dedica totalmente a
Dios. En la vida consagrada, los fieles de Cristo se proponen, bajo la
moción del Espíritu Santo, seguir más de cerca a Cristo, entregarse a
Dios amando por encima de todo y, persiguiendo la perfección de la
caridad en el servicio del Reino, significar y anunciar en la Iglesia la
Gloria del mundo futuro.
UN GRAN ARBOL, MULTIPLES RAMAS, el resultado ha sido una
especie de árbol en el campo de Dios, maravilloso y lleno de ramas, a
partir de una semilla puesta por Dios. Han crecido, en efecto, diversas formas de vida, solitaria o comunitaria y diversas familias religiosas que se desarrollan para el progreso de sus miembros y para el
bien de todo el Cuerpo de Cristo. Desde los comienzos de la Iglesia
hubo hombres y mujeres que intentaron, con la práctica de los consejos evangélicos, seguir con mayor libertad a Cristo e imitarlo más de
cerca. Cada uno a su manera, vivió entregado a Dios. Muchos, por
inspiración del Espíritu Santo, vivieron en la soledad o fundaron familias religiosas, que la Iglesia reconoció y aprobó gustosa con su autoridad. Los obispos se esforzaran siempre en discernir los nuevos
dones de vida consagrada confiados por el Espíritu Santo a su Iglesia; la aprobación de nuevas formas de vida consagrada está reservada a la Sede Apostólica.
LA VIDA EREMITICA, sin profesar siempre públicamente los tres
consejos evangélicos, los eremitas, “con un apartamiento más estricto del mundo, el silencio de la soledad, la oración asidua y la penitencia, dedican su vida a la alabanza de Dios y salvación del mundo”.
Los eremitas presentan a los demás ese aspecto interior del misterio
de la Iglesia que es la intimidad personal con Cristo. Oculta a los ojos
de los hombres, la vida del eremita es predicación silenciosa de
Aquel a quien ha entregado su vida, porque El es todo para el. En
este caso se trata de un llamamiento particular a encontrar en el desierto, en el combate espiritual, la gloria del Crucificado.
LAS VIRGENES CONSAGRADAS, desde los tiempos apostólicos,
vírgenes cristianas llamadas por el Señor para consagrarse a El enteramente con una libertad mayor de corazón, de cuerpo y de espíritu,
han tomado la decisión, aprobada por la Iglesia, de vivir en estado de
virginidad “a causa del Reino de los cielos” (Mt 19,12). “formulando el
propósito santo de seguir más cerca a Cristo, {las vírgenes} son consagradas a Dios por el obispo diocesano según el rito litúrgico aprobado, celebran desposorios místicos con Jesucristo, Hijo de Dios, y
se entregan al servicio de la Iglesia”. Por medio de este rito solemne,
“la virgen es constituida en persona consagrada” como “signo trascendente del amor de la Iglesia hacia Cristo, imagen escatológica de
esta Esposa del Cielo y de la vida futura”. Semejante a estas formas
de vida consagrada, el orden de las vírgenes sitúa a la mujer que vive
en el mundo (o a la monja) en el ejercicio de la oración, de la penitencia, del servicio a los hermanos y del trabajo apostólico, según el
estado y los carismas respectivos ofrecidos a cada una. Las vírgenes
consagradas pueden asociarse para guardar su propósito con mayor
fidelidad.
LA VIDA RELIGIOSA, nacida en Oriente en los primeros siglos
del cristianismo y vivida en los institutos canónicamente erigidos por
la Iglesia, la vida religiosa se distingue de las otras formas de vida
consagrada por el aspecto cultural, la profesión publica de los consejos evangélicos, la vida fraterna llevada en común, y por el testimonio
dado de la unión de Cristo y de la Iglesia.

“WALKING TOGETHER TO LOOK FOR
“ETERNAL FOUNTAINS” # 133.
CHAPTER THREE Article 9
I BELIEVE IN THE HOLY CATHOLIC CHURCH
THE CONSACRETED LIFE
“The state of life which is constituted by the profession of the evangelical counsels, while not entering into the hierarchical structure
of the Church, belongs undeniably to her life and holiness”.
EVANGELICAL COUNSELS, CONSECRATED LIFE, Christ proposes the evangelical counsels, in their great variety, to every
disciple. The perfection of charity, to which all the faithful are
called, entails for those who freely follow the call to consecrated
life the obligation of practicing chastity in celibacy the sake of the
Kingdom, poverty and obedience. It is the profession of these
counsels, within a permanent state of life recognized by the
Church that characterizes the life consecrated to God. The religious state is thus one way of experiencing a “more intimate” consecration, rooted in Baptism and dedicated totally to God. In the
consecrated life, Christ’s more nearly, to give themselves to God
who is loved above all and, pursuing the perfection of charity in the
service of the kingdom, to signify and proclaim in the Church the
glory of the world to come.
ONE GREAT TRE, WITH MANY BRANCHES, “Form the Godgiven seed of the counsels a wonderful and wide-spreading tree
has grown up in the field of the Lord, branching out into various
forms of the religious life lived in solitude or in community. Different religious families have come into existence in which spiritual
resources are multiplied for the progress in holiness of their members and for the good of the entire Body of Christ.” from the very
beginning of the Church there were men and women who set out
to follow Christ with greater liberty, and to imitate him more closely, by practicing the evangelical counsels. They led lives dedicated
to God, each in his own way. Many of them, under the inspiration
of the Holy Spirit, became hermits or founded religious families.
These, the Church, by virtue of her authority, gladly accepted and
approved. Bishops will always strive to discern new gifts of consecrated life granted to the Church by the Holy Spirit; the approval of
new forms of consecrated life is reserved to the Apostolic See.
THE EREMITIC LIFE, without always professing the three
evangelical counsels publicly, hermits “devoted their life to the
praise of God and salvation of the world through a stricter separation from the world, the silence of solitude and assiduous prayer
and penance. They manifest to everyone the interior aspect of the
mystery of the Church, that is, personal intimacy with Christ. Hidden from the eyes of men, the life of the hermits is a silent preaching of the Lord, to whom he has surrendered his life simply because he is everything to him. Here is a particular call to find in the
desert, in the thick of spiritual battle, the glory of the Crucified One.
CONSECRATED VIRGINS, from apostolic times Christians
virgins, called by the Lord to cling only to him with greater freedom
of heart, body, and spirit, have decided with the Church’s approval
to live in a state of virginity “for the sake of the Kingdom of heaven.” Virgins, who, committed to the Holy plan of following Christ
more closely, are consecrated to God by the diocesan bishop according to the approved liturgical rite, are betrothed mystically to
Christ, the Son of God, and are dedicated to the service of the
Church.” By this solemn rite (consecratio Virginum), the virgin is
“constituted…a sacred person, a transcendent sign of the
Church’s love for Christ, and an eschatological image of this heavenly Bride of Christ and of the life to come.” As with other forms of
consecrated life, the order of virgins establishes the woman living
in the world (or the nun) in prayer, penance, service of her brethren, and apostolic activity, according to the state of life and spiritual gifts given to her. Consecrated virgins can form themselves into
association to observe their commitment more faithfully.
RELIGIOUS LIFE, religious life was born in the East during
the first centuries of Christianity. Lived within institutes canonically
erected by the Church, it is distinguished from others forms of
consecrated life by its liturgical character, public profession of the
evangelical counsels, fraternal life led in common, and witness
given to the union of Christ with the Church.
