Visiting a Carthusian monastery - part 1

"Stat crux dum volvitur orbis".
I liked the Carthusian order since I was child, I visited personally many Charterhouses and Serra St. Bruno too.
St. Bruno wrote the Carthusian vocation is a mystery known only by who has experienced it, not everyone is called to such life but knowing it will help to rediscover the contemplative dimension inherent in every Christian existence
and to give more space in our daily.

I thought the Carthusians were still using their own ancient rite. In fact, in the film "Into Great Silence", you can see it in the Grande Chartreuse, the mother chaterhouse of the Order. Although I don't have anything against the Novus Ordo, I think it's very positive to maintain the particular order rites and the Latin Vetus Ordo alive. They are the milenarian sacred liturgy of the Catholic Church!! Pax Christi

The New Order Mass is intrinsically anti-unity. You can go to 10 different parishes and they'll celebrate the NO in 11 different ways, sometimes radically different. Catholic = UNIVERSAL. The universal language (Latin) has been replaced with many tongues. So much for unity.

The irreverence for the Holy Eucharist at most NO parishes is indescribable, by priests and laity.

I'd recommend reading "The Ottaviani Intervention" written by Cardinals Ottaviani and Bacci to Paul VI

@2groomers

Pity is to have such a bad attitude towards the Ordinary Form of the Mass. That attitude does not build really (a holy) communion inside the Church, which the Eucharist normally gives.

fantastic..makes me want to go on another silent retreat

[henrikhankhagnell]

do carthusians celebrate Mass Versus Populum?

Is it just me or do the prior speak Italian with a French accent?

[Moneybags916]

@PInk77W1 There are different rites in the LATIN MASS. There was a Carthusian Rite as said before the Council.

[PInk77W1]

@Moneybags916 it is still available it is called the LATIN MASS
