We seem to be faced by an urgent need to discern the important contribution spirituality can make at providing man today with a terminology and a horizon by which the twenty-first century human person can examine, first and foremost, the historical roots that shape the kind of anthropology he embraces today; secondly, the utmost need for dialogue (not just inter-religious but also beyond), and; thirdly, the nature and dynamics of the kind of anthropology that characterises being “wounded”, which we shall later define. We feel it superabundantly necessary to seek new language – and with it new horizons and insights – in this regard even within our Christian faith so as to really read the signs of the times.
