Divine blessure

Jacqueline Kelen condemns the continual tendency of only turning to spiritual paths in search of solutions to our problems. Finding a cure and eliminating our ills in order to attain happiness seem to be obsessions of our modern world. It is also a convenient way of anaesthetising our conscience and brushing metaphysical questions under the carpet. By drawing on particularly inspiring and eminent figures, such as Lancelot, Osiris, Jacob, crucified Christ and Ulysses, this work reminds us that man also attains fulfilment through trial. It is also a truly initiatory discourse on love which offers us liberation from our impediments. “No life can know intensity and remain a stranger to trials. No loving heart can forever avoid being broken”.
