“Deep down inside, don't we all long for a fulfilling relationship, completeness, escape from the mediocrity of our daily lives, to reach out towards an Absolute Being?”
The search for meaning, for the Absolute, led Father Joseph-Marie Verlinde, known as Jacques at the time, to take the plunge into the "Great Whole". Initiated in ascetic oriental practices such as yoga and transcendental meditation, he explored the Hindu and Buddhist religious traditions in India. This led him on to esoteric and occult practices and, in this film, he speaks about this and about his own experiences, contrasting them with the truth of the One he crossed the world to find: Jesus Christ.
A priest of Belgian origin, with Doctorates in philosophy and theology, he is now prior of the Monastic Community of the Family of Saint Joseph, in France. Drawing on his past experience, Father Joseph-Marie Verlinde answers some of the basic questions faced by society today. With great respect, he warns and enlightens those who, in their search for "meaning", embark upon the ways of the East... and engage in esoteric and occult practices. -source H/T to my wife!
