and the fears of its imminent death, and calls for trusting the Dream of the God of history who calls us forth neither from above nor from behind, but from ahead of us, from the future. Consecrated men and women are called to be eschatological signs; consequently, consecrated life is rooted not in the past, but in the future. We are called to receive God’s Dream that visits us from the future and respond to this visitation creatively and audaciously in the present. Such perspective will help us avoid clinging to past forms of living consecrated life and mourning the death of some of such forms, and be excitedly open to the Spirit who leads us forth in creative fidelity to the Gospel. To argue his thesis, the author primarily draws upon the theological insights of John Haught, supported by a variety of other theologians of religious life, invitations of Pope Francis, and the insights from Theory U from the secular discipline of management.

The article analizes the famous definition of a Claretian given by Saint Anthony Mary Claret to his missionary sons, from the light of character strengths or psychological virtues, as identified by Peterson and Seligman. The Definition is a rich mine of characters strengths 13 of which can be accounted for by the list of strengths identified by Peterson and Seligman. However, the author also identifies further strengths. The Definition, as expected, has a predominance of virtues belonging to transcendence.

“The pages that Father Paulson presents in this soul-stirring collection have the anointing of an Yes he said to Someone who has a name – his God in Christ, especially to Christ in the Eucharist, and who gives meaning to every event and instance of his personal existence as a Christian, as a consecrated priest. Hence, these poetic-prose pages, his silver jubilee testimony and gift for us, can gush forth in the reader too a charming, irresistible persuasion to fall irretrievably into the Amness of God-Love.”
[From the Foreword “Blessed Birthpangs” by George Lanithottam]

Recognizing the analytic in the eucharistic phenomenology, the research further engages the data in a phenomenological depth analysis using the heuristic lens of the object relational perspective in psychoanalysis elucidated by Melanie Klein, Wilfred Bion, James Grotstein, and Thomas Ogden. The research identifies autistic-contiguous, paranoid-schizoid, depressive, and transcendent positions within the dynamics of the eucharistic transformation. However, it finds the current theory of the positions inadequate to account for the scope of the organization of human experience and transformation as evidenced in the eucharistic phenomenology. Hence, the research proposes a fifth position, kenotic-agapeic position, to describe human transformation beyond the transcendent position, wherein a person develops the courage to die to self in order to nurture the life of an other. The study ends with a discussion of the implications of the eucharistic phenomenology for the theory and practice of psychoanalysis and psychotherapy.
Keywords: eucharistic transformation, kenotic-agapeic position, primitive mental states, ritual, spirituality and religiosity, phenomenological depth analysis.
