1 . 0 INTRODUCTION MAN ATTAINS HIS ULTIMATE END THROUGH VERY GOOD ACTIONS, THAT IS CERTAINLY, IN CONFORMITY WITH REGULATION AND HIS MIND. THESE VERY GOOD ACTIONS MAY BE HELPED WHEN I SAY GOOD HABITS KNOWN AS VIRTUES. VIRTUE IS NOT REALLY SOMETHING FUZY POSSIBLY ZERO TERM INSIDE THE HISTORY OF ETHICAL THOUGHT HAS STIMULATED MORE INTEREST, EXPRESSION AND RUMOURS THAN THOSE OF VIRTUE. VIRTUE IS NOT REALLY SOMETHING FUZY AND UNATTACHED FROM EXISTENCE BUT ON THE CONTRARY IT HAS PROFOUND ROOTS IN LIFE ITSELF. THIS SPRING UP IN THE LATTER AND FORMS THIS.
VIRTUE COMES WITH AN IMPACT ON MAN’S LIFE, IN THE actions and behavior.
It serves the good of guy and his accurate happiness even on earth1. So IN THIS PAPER We TRY TO SEE THE VIRTUES, THE MEANING AND THE PRIMARY VIRTUES, SIGNIFICANCE OF VIRTUES IN THIS PRESENT TIME AND THE CRUCIAL VIRTUE AND MY FAVORITE VIRTUE ALSO DESCRIBED. 1 . you THE MEANING AND DEFINITION OF ADVANTAGE THE WORD ADVANTAGE COMES FROM THE LATIN TERM FOR MAN AND FORMERLY MEANT A GOOD QUALITY THAT INDIVIDUALS (MEN) PRACTICE (MANLINESS) AND WHICH MAKES THESE PEOPLE DIFFERENT THAN PETS OR ANIMALS.
VIRTUE MAY ALSO MEAN ETHICAL EXCELLENCE, UPRIGHTNESS, GOODNESS, POWER, COURAGE, AND WORTH ETC. NOWADAYS A VIRTUE MEANS A GOOD QUALITY THAT CREATES HUMANS TO ASSIST EACH OTHER AND TO ACT FOR THE EXCELLENT OF THEIR FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES RATHER THAN JUST FOR WHAT OFFERS THEM PERSONAL PLEASURE. IN RESPECT TO CATECHISM OF CATHOLIC CHURCH NO .
1803 “A VIRTUE IS KNOWN AS A HABITUAL AND FIRM TEMPERAMENT TO DO THE GOOD. IT ENABLES THE PERSON NOT ONLY TO PERFORM VERY GOOD ACTS, BUT FOR GIVE THE BEST OF HIM. THE VIRTUOUS PERSON TENDS TOWARD THE GOOD USING HIS SENSORY AND SPIRITUAL POWERS; THIS INDIVIDUAL PURSUES THE GOOD AND DECIDES IT IN CONCRETE ACTIONS. A VIRTUE IS A “POWER (VIRTUS), INSIDE THE LITERAL PERCEPTION OF THE WORD. IT IS THE POWER TO ACCOMPLISH MEANING GOOD, AND ESPECIALLY TO DO IT JOYFULLY AND PERSEVERINGLY EVEN AGAINST INNER AND OUTER OBSTACLES AND AT THE COST OF SACRIFICE.
THE MOMENT THAT POWER IS TURNED TO EVIL IT REALLY IS CALLED A VICE. VIRTUES HAPPEN TO BE POWERS SEATED IN THE OCCURRENCE OF OUR GOD, IN STYLE, THAT ALLOW US TO DETERMINE AND NURTURE HEALTHY AND LIFE SUPPLYING RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD, THE NEIGHBOR, THE WORLD AND THE DO IT YOURSELF. THEY PROMPT US TO BEHAVE IN SUCH A WAY REGARDING EXCLUDE INTENSE FORMS OF ACTION. THUS, THE SAYING: IN CAPITAL STAT VIRTUS, THAT IS “IN MIDDLE STANDS VIRTUE. GENUINE ADVANTAGE FLOWS FROM YOUR CORRECT FUNDAMENTAL OPTION. 1 ) 2 BENEFITS IN THE HOLY SCRIPTURE THERE IS NOT ANY HEBREW TERM IN THE OT THAT DELIVERS THE GENERAL THAT MEANS OF ADVANTAGE.
WHILE THE WRITERS OF THE HEBREW SCRIPTURES HAD BEEN CERTAINLY CONSCIOUS OF MANY HUMAN BEING VIRTUES, IT ABSOLUTELY WAS NOT BEFORE THE OT WAS TRANSLATED IN TO GREEK THE FACT THAT WORD ARETE (VIRTUE OR PERHAPS EXCELLENCE) WAS 1 Thomas Pazahyampallil SDB, Pastoral Guidebook vol. you Christhu Jyothi Publications: Bangalore. 2004. pg. 394-395 APPLIED. THE TERM IS USUALLY INFREQUENTLY USED IN THE INSIDE THE NT YET POSSIBLY THE REASON BEHIND THIS FOR THE REASON THAT NT AUTHORS MAY HAVE GOT THOUGHT THAT THE TERM WAS TOO ANTHROPOCENTRIC AND STRESSED INDIVIDUAL ACHIEVEMENT AND MERIT. ANYTIME THE WORD IS UTILIZED HOWEVER IT WOULD NOT DENOTE ETHICAL GOODNESS.
THOUGH THE WORD IS UTILIZED INFREQUENTLY IN NT IT REALLY IS MORE POPULAR TO FIND EMAIL LISTS OF BENEFITS THAT EXPLAIN MORAL LIFESTYLE IN THE EARLY YEARS OF Christian community in the Pauline letters sand in the pastoral letters. 2 1 . several DIFFERENT KINDS OF BENEFITS THE VIRTUES ARE INFINITE IN QUANTITY. WE ARE UNABLE TO COUNT UP ALL THE VIRTUES GENERALLY SPEAKING. BUT WHEN WE ALL SPECIFY IT WE CAN HIGHLIGHT CERTAIN VIRTUES OR WE MIGHT MAKE A DISTINCTION IN VIRTUES PRIMARILY ON BIBLICAL AND CARDINAL VIRTUES.
WE ALL KNOW DIFFERENT FOLKS ARE FULFILLING THEIR LIVES BY TRAINING CERTAIN BENEFITS. SO IT MAY DIFFER PERSON TO PERSON. THEOLOGY HAS TRADITIONALLY DISTINGUISHED BETWEEN NATURAL AND SUPERNATURAL VIRTUES.
BUT IN MILD OF OUR PRESENT UNDERSTANDING OF THE PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN MOTHER NATURE AND GRACE, THIS HARD AND FAST DISTINCTION NEEDS TO BE COMPREHENDED IN A DIFFERENT WAY. GREAT VIRTUES AREN’T SOMETHING PUT INTO NATURAL BENEFITS. ON THE OTHER HAND THE DISTINCTION WILL REMIND US THAT ADVANTAGE IS GROUNDED IN HUMAN BEING, NOT SINGLE FROM THIS.
ANOTHER VARIATION IS AMONG ACQUIRED AND INFUSED BENEFITS. SEEN FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF IT IS SOURCE AND ROOTEDNESS, A VIRTUE IS DEFINITELY “INFUSED BY GOD. A 3RD DISTINCTION IS USUALLY BETWEEN THEOLOGICAL (FAITH, DESIRE AND CHARITY) AND ETHICAL OR CARDINAL VIRTUES (PRUDENCE, JUSTICE, TEMPERANCE, AND FORTITUDE).
THE BIBLICAL VIRTUES HAPPEN TO BE INFUSED BY SIMPLY GOD HIMSELF AND THAT LEADS TO THE TRIUNE GOD. SCRIPTURE AND TRADITION TALK ABOUT A TRIAD OF THESE KINDS OF FUNDAMENTAL SUPERNATURAL VIRTUES THAT ARE SPECIFIED BY THEIR BEING THE FUNDAMENTAL MODES OF INCREASING ACCEPTANCE WITH THE DIVINE HOME COMMUNICATION BY GRACE AND OF DIRECTING MANS SPIRITUAL, PERSONAL LIFE TOWARDS GOD BY SHARING IN GOD’S EXISTENCE ITSELF. THIS KIND OF TRIAD CAN BE FOUND IN THE NT (1COR. 13: 13; 1THES. 1: three or more; 5: 8; EPH. you: 15-18; ENCOLURE. 1: 4F; HEB. 15: 22-24).
THEY ARE REALLY CALLED ENDLESS VIRTUES SINCE THEIR FORMAL OBJECT IS USUALLY NOT A FINITE MORAL PERSONAL VALUE BUT GOD HIM SELF, AS HE MAKES HIMSELF LIVING OF MAN BY HIS SELF CONVERSATION. THE CARDINAL VIRTUES ARE ALSO IMPORTANT WITHIN OUR DAY TO DAY EXISTENCE TO LIVE AN EXCELLENT MORAL LIFE. 1 . four MY FAVORITE VIRTUE ” CHARITABLE ORGANISATION LOVE IS THE CENTRAL AND IMPORTANT VIRTUE, THAT I LIKE THE MANY.
NO ADVANTAGE IS MORE TOTALLY EXPRESSIVE OF THE RELATIONAL MODEL OF THE CHRISTIAN MORAL YOUR LIFE THAN CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION, OR LIKE. WE SEE THAT EVERY ONE OF JESUS’ MEANING TEACHINGS AND THOSE OF THE EARLY ON CHURCH HAD BEEN CONCENTRATED IN THE ONE COMMANDMENT OF LOVE: LIKE OF OUR GOD AND APPRECIATE OF NEIGHBOR (MK. 12: 28-34; MT. 2 James J. Walter, “Virtue in The New dictionary of Theology theological publications in India: Bangalore: 2006, pp. 1081-1085. 22: 34-40; LK. 10: 25-37; LADY. 5: 18, 1COR. 13; 1 JN. 3: 23). AND WE HAVE EXPERIENCED THAT ADVANTAGE IS A CHRONIC AND COMPANY DISPOSITION TO ACCOMPLISH THE GOOD.
OF COURSE, IF WE HAVE LIKE WE WILL NOT DO ANYTHING HARMFUL TO OUR GOD OR NEIGHBORS. ST . PAUL SAYS “AND NOW BELIEFS, HOPE AND LOVE ABIDE THESE THREE; AND THE GREATEST OF THESE IS LOVE (1COR. 13: 13). LOVE CAN BE LIVED TRUST AND LIVED HOPE. THE MAIN ONE VIRTUE WITH NO OTHER TWO IS RADICALLY INCOMPLETE, LIFELESS. COUNCIL OF TRENT INSTRUCTS US THE FIRST AND MOST NECESSARY GIFT IS CHARITABLE ORGANISATION BY WHICH WE ALL LOVE THE ALMIGHTY ABOVE ALL points and the neighbor due to him. a few.
LET US SEE THE WORD WHICH MEANS OF LOVE. THE PHRASE CHARITY ORIGINATES FROM THE ANCIENT GREEK WORD CHARIS WHICH MEANS GRACE(FAVOUR) OR FROM YOUR LATIN PHRASE CARUM MEANING DEAR (OF GREAT VALUE) BOTH MEAN SAME THING GRACE IS DEAR, THAT IS OF GREAT VALUE IN ENGLISH SENSE TO IT . ONLY ONE THAT MEANS, BUT IN GREEK FOR TAKE PLEASURE IN MANY WORDS ARE USED. BY WAY OF EXAMPLE EPITHEMIA CAN BE DESIRE, TOGETHER WITH THE CONNOTATION OF LUST.
THIS IS CERTAINLY SEXUAL APPRECIATE. EROS IS THE DRIVE TOWARD UNION WITH OTHERS WHICH BRINGS SELF-FULFILLMENT. PHILIA IS DEFINITELY AFFECTIONATE LOVE SUCH AS THAT AMONG SIBLINGS, SISTERS AND FRIENDS. AGAPE IS TOTAL DEDICATION AND DEVOTION TOWARDS THE WELFARE OR PERHAPS OTHER, IRRESPECTIVE OF SACRIFICE AND PERSONAL COST.
VARIOUS EXPERIENCES OF AUTHENTIC LIKE BY PEOPLE WILL INVOLVE A PROPORTIONATE BLENDING OF THE FOUR ELEMENTS. CHRISTIAN LIKE CONSISTS WITHIN AN INTIMATE CONTRIBUTION IN THE LIFE OF GOD WHO IS TAKE PLEASURE IN (1JN. some: 8, 16). IT IS A GIFT IDEA FROM GOODNESS THAT IS MEDITATED BY CHRIST AND TRIGGERED BY THE SPIRIT. IT PHONE CALLS US TO TALK ABOUT IN THE PASCHAL MYSTERY WITH WHICH CHRIST PRESENTED WITH HIMSELF TO DEATH AND FOR THAT REASON WAS RAISED FROM YOUR DEAD AND EXALTED BY THE FATHER (PHIL. 2; 5-11).
CHRISTIAN LIKE IS ROOTED IN THE WHOLE LIFESTYLE, DEATH AND RESURRECTION OF CHRIST. HE’S MODEL THROUGH HIS EXISTENCE OF SUPPORT (MK. 10: 45), THROUGH HIS TOTAL SELF SUPPLYING ON THE GET ACROSS, AND THROUGH HIS MOVING OVER TO THE FATHER. CHRISTIAN TAKE PLEASURE IN IS SAME SELF GIVING, EVEN FOR THE POINT OF CRUCIFIXION. “NO ONE HAS GREATER LOVE THAN THIS, TO LAY DOWN YOUR LIFE FOR YOUR FRIENDS (Jn. 15: 13)4.
CHARITY MAY BE THE LAST AS WELL AS THE GREATEST IN THE THREE THEOLOGICAL VIRTUES; THE OTHER TWO ARE FAITH AND EXPECT. WHILE IT IS OFTEN CALLED TAKE PLEASURE IN AND MIXED UP IN THE WELL-KNOWN UNDERSTANDING WITH COMMON MEANINGS OF THE OTHER WORD, CHARITABLE TRUST IS MORE THAN THE USUAL SUBJECTIVE FEELING OR EVEN A TARGET ACTION FROM THE WILL TOWARD ANOTHER PERSON.
JUST LIKE THE OTHER BIBLICAL VIRTUES, CHARITABLE ORGANISATION IS SUPERNATURAL IN THE SENSE THAT GOD IS USUALLY BOTH ITS ORIGIN AND ITS PARTICULAR OBJECT. SINCE FR. JOHN A. HARDON, S. M., WRITES IN THE MODERN CATHOLIC DICTIONARY, CHARITABLE TRUST IS THE “INFUSED SUPERNATURAL VIRTUE BY WHICH A PERSON LOVES GOD ABOVE ALL THINGS PERTAINING TO HIS [THAT IS USUALLY, GOD’S] OWN REASON, AND LOVES OTHERS PERTAINING TO GOD’S REASON. JUST LIKE ALL BENEFITS, CHARITY a few Thomas Pazahyampallil SDB, Pastoral Guide volume. 1 Christhu Jyothi Publications: Bangalore, 2004. pg. 729. 4 Ibid. 602 CAN BE AN ACT OF THE IS GOING TO, AND THE EXERCISE OF CHARITABLE ORGANISATION INCREASES OUR LOVE INTENDED FOR GOD AND FOR OUR OTHER MAN;
ALTHOUGH BECAUSE CHARITABLE TRUST IS A SURPRISE FROM THE ALMIGHTY, WE ARE NOT ABLE TO INITIALLY GET THIS ADVANTAGE BY OUR OWN ACTIONS. I DO BELIEVE THAT WHENEVER WE PRACTICE THE VIRTUE APPRECIATE ALL OTHER WILL FOLLOW AUTOMATICALLY. SUCH AS IF I DEEPLY AND COMPLETE HEARTEDLY LIKE A PERSON I WILL BE AWARE ABOUT HIM AND HIS NEEDS. IN THIS ARTICLE THE VIRTUE LOVE OF NEIGHBOR IS FULFILLED. ONCE AGAIN IF I APPRECIATE A PERSON I WILL SPEAK HIM WITH PATIENCE AND AFFECTION. AND IN MANY CASES IF WE ARE OUT OF MOOD INSIDE THE PRESENCE OF DEAR FRIEND WE WILL ENDEAVOUR TO BE COOL AND GENTLE.
THEREFORE ALSO IF WE ARE IN ANGRY DISPOSITION WE MAY HAVE A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF CONTROL OF IT INSIDE THE BEHALF OF YOUR FRIEND PERSON WHO LOVES AND LOVED.
MOREOVER, WE WILL BE FAITH FULL TO HIS\HER PHYSICAL OR MENTAL NEEDS AS WELL AS TO THE SALVATION OF HIS\HER SOUL. FINALLY IT ACTUALLY REACHES TO THE ALMIGHTY. SO IT STARTS OFF FROM THE ALMIGHTY AND MOVES THROUGH OTHERS AND LEADS TO GOD. I HOPE IT IS THE CONVOCATION OF OUR LIFESTYLE WE SHOULD HAVE TO FULFILL. NO MATTER WHAT WAY FUNCTIONING AT THE ADVANTAGE LOVE IT WILL TAKE ALL OTHER BENEFITS TOGETHER WITH THIS. THAT IS WHY My spouse and i POINTED THAT BY PRACTICING THE VIRTUE LOVE OR PERHAPS CHARITY WE MIGHT ACCOMPLISH OTHER VIRTUES. 1 . 5 THE RELEVANCE OF VIRTUE TODAY THIS IS A MEANINGFUL AND VALUABLE ISSUE TO BE ASKED IN THIS FAST PACED WORLD.
TODAY THE VALUE OF ADVANTAGE IS DECREASING IN OUR LIVES. MAN IS DEFINITELY RUNNING AFTER MONEY, RICHES AND ENJOYMENT. WE COMFORTABLY FORGET ABOUT THE OTHER EVEN ONE’S OWN BLOODSTREAM RELATION. TODAY IF WE HAVE A LOOK AT THE NEWS DAILY NEWS WE COULD VISIT A SERIES OF TALES WHICH WILL BREAK OUR CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM.
EVERY SECOND WE WATCH IN THE TV MURDER, VIOLENCE, CHEATING AND ALL KINDS OF DEHUMANIZED ACTIONS MADE BY THE MANKIND. HERE WHAT WE FIND IS THAT THE HUMANKIND IS DEFINITELY LOOSING HIS SENSE OF ACTING GOOD, GOOD FOR OTHER FOLKS. NOW PERSON HAS SHRUNK INTO HIM SELF. HE IS NOT EVEN OPEN TO THEIR SPOUSE EVEN. HE DESIRES TO LEAD A LIFETIME OF LAVISH, ENJOYING ALL KINDS OF PLEASURE AND PLEASURE. IN THIS WORK HE IS NOT REALLY BOTHERED REGARDING THE OTHER. WHAT I AIMING IS THAT AT THE MOMENT THE PRACTICE OF VIRTUE IS GETTING OUT OF DATE.
BUT IT DOES NOT MEAN THAT WE REALLY NEED NOT PRACTICE VIRTUES. BUT WE HAVE TO REESTABLISH THE PRIDE OF HUMAN BEING BY PRACTICING VIRTUES. EVEN MORE OVER ADVANTAGE HELP US TO FORM EACH OF OUR CHARACTER AND ACT GREAT. YOUR PERSONALITY IS THE SET OF QUALITIES WHICH WILL MAKE YOU WHO ALSO YOU ARE. THE FEATURES THAT PEOPLE WOULD NAME AFTER THEY DESCRIBE YOU ARE WHAT “CHARACTERIZE YOU (COULD DO WELL OR BAD) AND MAKE YOU A PERSON WHO IS DIFFERENT FROM ANYBODY ELSE. IF YOUR VALUES CAUSE YOU TO PERFORM GOOD THINGS EVEN WHEN YOU MIGHT RATHER DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT, YOU WILL BE SAID TO HAVE A “GOOD CHARACTER. inch
IF YOU MORE OFTEN THAN NOT MAKE THE SAME KINDS OF MORAL CHOICES, AND DON’T LET OTHER FOLKS TALK YOU INTO POINTS THAT YOU CONSIDER ARE WRONG, YOU HAPPEN TO BE SAID TO INCLUDE A “STRONG CHARACTER. FINALLY VIRTUE IS ALWAYS CONCERNED WITH PERSONALITY IN GENERAL, AND WITH THE COMPLETE PERSONALITY IN THE CONTEXT OF ITS HEALTHY AND BALANCED AND CURING HUMAN RELATIONSHIPS. THE HABIT OF CHARITY IS ESSENTIAL BY THE NEED FOR MEANS FOR ALL TO ATTAIN SOLUTION.
THE AUTHORITIES OF TRENT TEACHES: PERTAINING TO ALTHOUGH NOBODY CAN BE MERELY UNLESS THE MERITS OF PASSION OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST ARE IMPARTED TO HIM STILL THIS COMMUNICATIONS HAPPENS IN THE REASON OF THE SINNER. 1 . 6th CONCLUSION THEOLOGIANSTODAYGIVEGREATIMPORTANCETOTHEFUNDAMENTALATTITUDEINMAN.
AGOOD FUNDAMENTAL OPTION RENDERS THE WHOLE MAN GOOD. THE CONSUMER ACTS HAPPEN TO BE IN GENERAL A MANIFESTATION OF THE PRIMARY OPTION TO DO WELL OR TO BE VIRTUES IN THIS SENSE THERE EXISTS ONLY ONE VIRTUE AND IT IS MANIFESTED IN DIFFERENT TECHNIQUES, THUS WE COULD SPEAK OF DIVERSE VIRTUES. VIRTUE IS THAT SOME THING LEADS ALL OF US TO DO GOOD AND AVOID NASTY. A VIRTUE CAN LEAD ALL OF US TO SALVIFIC LIFE OR PERHAPS IN THE MEANINGFUL REALM TO ACQUIRE A GOOD YOUR LIFE IN THE WORLD. AS YOU MAY KNOW TODAY ADVANTAGE IS OVERLOOKED BY THE PEOPLE IN THIS POWERFUL WORLD.
EACH IS BOTHERED ABOUT ONLY HIS NEEDS AND PLEASURE. IN THIS ARTICLE WE FIND THE AUTHENTICITY OF SELFISHNESS. ON THE OTHER HAND WE HAVE TO REBUILD THE OUT DATED VALUES AND TRUTHS IN OUR LIVES. MOST IMPORTANTLY WE MUST UNDERSTAND THAT LOVE OF GOD AND LOVE OF NEIGHBOR AHEAD OF BEING A COMMANDMENT IS A PRESENT OF GRACE FROM THE MASTER IT IS GOD WHO PROVIDE CAPACITY TO TAKE PLEASURE IN.
BY REHEARSING VIRTUES OUR COMPANY IS BECOMING MORE WHICH WHENEVER TRUE VIRTUE ARE AT HOME WE ALSO HAVE GOOD, HEALTHY, CHEERFUL RELATIONSWI TH NATURE AND THE WITH THE WHOLE CREATION INVOLVES OURSELVES AND ABOVE ALL TO GOD,?NTERNET SITE MENTIONED OUR GOAL OF LIFE IS TO END IN GOD.
I WAS QUITE SURE VIRTUE OFTENTIMES LEADS US TO THAT PARTICULAR ULTIMATE TRUTH THE THE ALMIGHTY. BIBLIOGRAPHY Pazahyampallil, Thomas, SDB.
