| Abstract: | This work aims to offer spiritual and formative insights to today’s young generation, inspired by the Augustinian charism. The characteristics that emerge from the Augustinian spirituality are qualities that are still significant in today’s world. However, their worth needs to be rediscovered and applied to today’s needs. They are characteristics that invite the Christian on a journey of transformation from his old self to the birth of the new self while seeking meaning and discovering true happiness. This study aims to demonstrate that certain practices (such as silence and meditation), which were cherished by our elders, can still offer wisdom for today’s society, and provide recommendations for a better life. |
