“Christmas… Christmas! You, Lord, so innocent!” At the end of this homage to the Child Jesus and his Virgin Mother, accept a gift! By the prayers of Mary, it will be the occasion of great graces! In a certain sense, the most important and sublime of graces. Of all the videos already published, it is the best Christmas gift! If innocence enhanced by wisdom were a gift for you, distribute this gift in great quantities: it will multiply in your hands… and it will grow in your heart! In the Christmas series that began on the Solemnity of Christ the Kingdom, this is the eighth video. For the Day of Kings, with the favor of Our Lady, two more will be released, thus surpassing the announced goal. The description of this video is the text itself: At Christmas 1975, Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira gave a conference on the restoration of innocence. Primordial innocence or spring innocence is the impulse of the soul in search of something to admire, says Dr. Plinio. This natural impulse towards the marvelous is sublimated by grace in Baptism. Innocence is the impetus towards the highest, the supremely high, the infinitely high, the Absolute. Rectitude of the sense of being, innocence always seeks the sublime, it is the most morning ray of the love of God. Let us look at the innocence of Saint Therese. Her wisdom is nothing more than her developed innocence. Yes, according to Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira, sublimated innocence is wisdom, the supreme gift of God. Explanations of this kind should inspire a Pope of the Kingdom of Mary to grant Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira a glorious title: Doctor of Innocence. Contrary to the innocent, the innocent prefers the delicious to the marvelous... it abandons wisdom... and rejects God. Grace, however, always accompanies and always invites the prodigal son to return to his father's house. This return is the restoration of innocence, on the way to the acquisition of wisdom. Restoration, said Dr. Plinio, is superior to progress. In that sense, here is one of the most profound, beautiful and simple prayers that came from his heart during that conference, given two days after Christmas 1975: Model and source of innocence. Beautiful as a flash of lightning, sun of flashes, the Child Jesus can be invoked as a model and source of primeval innocence. When we adore him in his manger, how good it is to say to him, through Our Lady: “You Lord, so innocent and I in this state. Give me a spark of your innocence and I will be the most innocent man on earth. Regenerate me, my Lord, through the prayers of Mary.” @ChildJesus @Christmas @Wisdom @Innocence
