Seminar Spiritualitas Hati: Veritas dan Caritas, Obat Penawar Budaya Kekerasan

Seminar Spiritualitas Hati: Veritas dan Caritas, Obat Penawar Budaya Kekerasan

By Yusti H. Wuarmanuk 

Mac 20 2023

GROGO, Jakarta – Budaya kekerasan, materialisme, budaya indiferentisme (acuh tak acuh) masih sering terjadi di zaman ini. Tiga penyakit zaman ini seakan-akan menggantikan sumber kebahagiaan caritas (cinta kasih) dan veritas (kebenaran).

“Zaman ini manusia tidak lagi menjadi sahabat bagi orang lain tetapi menjadi serigala yang kejam. Tiga penyakit zaman ini membantu mewujudkan tumbuh kembangnya pribadi manusia yang kejam, ” ujar Fr Budi Santoso, MSC.

Pengarah Chevalier Indonesia ini merefleksikan, di tengah budaya kekerasan manusia perlu ubat penawar. Ubat penawar itu adalah budaya cinta. Sebutnya budaya cinta akan mengalahkan budaya kekerasan, materialisme, dan acuh tak acuh. “Cinta Kasih dan kebenaran akan mematahkan budaya kekerasan dan budaya kematian,” ujarnya dalam Seminar Spiritualitas Hati di Aula Susteran PBHK, Grogol, Jakarta, (Minggu, 19/03/2023).

Seminar ini dianjurkan oleh Keluarga Chevalier Indonesia yang terdiri dari Tarekat Hati Kudus Yesus (MSC), Sister-sister Putri Bunda Hati Kudus (PBHK), Tarekat Maria Mediatrix (TMM), Brother Bunda Hati Kudus (BHK), dan Awam Keluarga Chevalier (AKC).

Fr Budi membawakan tema, “Membangun Budaya Cinta di Tengah Keluarga dan Masyakarat”. Ia menegaskan budaya cinta masih sebagai ubat untuk menolak segala bentuk ketidakadilan, kekerasan, dan permusuhan. Budaya kekerasan itu bukan datang dari tindakan lahiriah tetapi bersumber dari hati. Ketika hati tidak menawarkan energi positif maka tubuh mampu melakukan tindakan kekerasan.

Fr Budi merefleksikan ada berbagai alasan terjadinya budaya kekerasan. Berkembangnya konsumerisme, hedonisme, individualisme, dan kekerasan di media dan masyakarat. Iklan terus membakar nafsu dan naluri konsumerisme dalam diri setiap orang. Belum lagi ekspresi dalam film bernuansa kekerasan yang ditawarkan teknologi mengabaikan nilai kemanusiaan.

“Saat ini juga terjadinya perubahan nilai-nilai budaya dan spiritual. Hati tidak lagi diisi dengan benih kebenaran dan cinta kasih karena bertumpuk dengan sampah-sampah budaya kekerasan. Budaya mengampuni, melayani, mengasihi dan kehidupan rohani jauh dari harapan,” tegasnya.

Salah satu jalan yang ditawarkan Fr Budi adalah kembali dekat dengan Tuhan. Meneladani spiritualitas Hati Kudus Yesus. Hati Yesus adalah hati yang mau mengampuni dan mengasihi, hati yang berbelas kasih, rela berkorban, dan yang peduli kepada sesama.

Di tempat yang sama Wakil Ketua Awam Keluarga Chevalier, Petrus Maringka menyebutkan budaya cinta mampu menyembuhkan kebencian, amarah, iri hati, dengki, acuh tak acuh, perselisihan dan menumbuhkan sebuah budaya baru yaitu cinta.

“Di tengah dunia dengan berbagai budaya kekerasan disertai alasan-alasannya membuat kasih semakin menipis. Pater Jules Chevalier sebagai patron Keluarga Chevalier mengajak semua orang untuk mengembangkan budaya cinta kasih dengan meneladani spiritualitas hati di tengah masyarakat dan keluarga,” sebut Petrus.

Fransiskus Yacob Karmen selaku Ketua Penyelaras Seminar Spiritualitas Hati mengatakan seminar kali ini dihadiri berbagai komunitas. Di antaranya para Sister PBHK dan TMM, Brother BHK, Komunitas Heart Community & We Care, Komhat, Tim Ametur dan umat beriman dari paroki-paroki terdekat. Seminar ini ditutup dengan Misa. – HidupKatolik.com
