小時候（噢，都已是大學生的年紀），有一位網友的名字便是 heloise；心生好奇，便找這個名字的故事。如果說西方中古世紀時有三大愛情悲劇情侶，有人說過分別是莎士比亞的 romeo and juliet、但丁與 beatrice，以及哀綠絲和亞培拉。
heloise 和 abelard 都是十二世紀時的人，兩人之間的愛情故事真實地在那年代發生和上演，因為真，更教人最低吟不已。abelard 是那時候的名神哲學家，鼓吹以理性詢問來做神學，與當時流行的、着重靈修虔敬的寺院神學背道而馳。他的盛名讓他看上比自己年輕廿載又同樣震 ... (continue)

This is lucid and succinct~!~ Is there "theology" before Scholasticism? According to Leclercq, the answer is without doubt a positive one. Monasticism, although is always in association with mysticism, it is still a way to study, to gain the knowledge of God. This kind of knowledge, unlike those we obtained from philosophy or natural science, is deduce from experience -- to be exact, the experience of a contemplative life. This is a theology of admiration, of love, but of little speculation only.
I firmly believe mysticism/ monasticism will be the pathway for inter-religions dialogue and the antidote towards nowadays somewhat skeptical and definitely nowadays losing contact with human soul kind of culture.
