The article explores the relationship between science and faith, arguing that the scientist is not a creator but an interpreter of the divine work, drawing on examples from the history of scientific discovery and the thinking of Romanian scholars such as Dr Nicolae Paulescu, Dr Victor Gomoiu and Prof. Ilie Bădescu, as well as the Church Fathers, from Saint Basil the Great to the Thomism of Thomas Aquinas.

Studia Theologica No. I (X) / 2020 Gratitude: the natural state of a person filled with the Holy Spirit His Eminence Varsanufie

Gratitude towards God is examined as a fundamental spiritual state, springing from an awareness of God’s gifts and culminating in the Holy Eucharist, understood as a complete union with Christ. Drawing on the teachings of Saints Cyril of Alexandria, Gregory Palamas, John Chrysostom, Dumitru Stăniloae and the Gospel passage on the healing of the ten lepers, the article demonstrates that authentic gratitude signifies a constant communion with God, whilst its absence leads to alienation and dehumanisation.

Taking as its starting point the poetic connections between Eminescu, Baudelaire, Tagore and Montale, this study explores the religious and metaphysical dimension of Eminescu’s work — from the myth of Zalmoxe and Dacian immortality to the interpretations of Nichifor Crainic and Arghezi — and proposes a comparative Indo-Romanian perspective that encompasses Eminescu’s sculpture and the contributions of Romanian Indology.
