The last year (july / 2019) I had a beautiful 1 month experience (to be carthusian father and know the carthusian life) in the Charterhouse of San José de Córdoba. Was one of the most important and beauty experiences of my life (Spiritual searching, Silence, Solitude and friendship), I was very happy there. Maybe I will enter the next year or 2022.
This video was part of my discernment of 2 years to return to the Catholic faith. I contacted the uk monastery at Parkminster to say a couple of masses for my intentions, not mine. They also prayed for me. Because of the Carthusians and the Birmingham UK Oratory my faith, after nearly 45 years has returned. I still fail but feel safe.
At 10:45pm the monks are still asleep, having retired about 8pm after Compline said in cell. Individual alarm clock in cell at 11:30pm for Office of Our Lady said in cell. The bell rings at 12 midnight for Night Office in the Oratory; Matins and Lauds (aka Night Office) conclude between 2am-3:20am depending upon duration of the liturgy specified for that date: either ferial office, or 3 lesson feast, or 12 lesson feast. Yes, they are holy men well to be emulated. The prior general, Rev. Ven. Dom Dysmas is outstanding. I encourage you to join them.
Was lucky enough to spend two or so weeks each summer at the American Charterhouse (in Arlington Vermont) from 1979 to 1984. Will send anyone a copy of a memento I wrote summing up the experience from my personal perspective. Just email me thorough my YT site to get a PDF. Definitely a pinnacle of my life experiences. -WMR
OMG! Brother you nailed it! Your adept mixture of beautiful music and scenes from my favorite movie is unbelievable! You were truly inspired to capture the Monastic life only found in Carthusian houses!

Well, it seems a very fulfilling life, but very sleep deprived! I don’t know how they stay awake to do the reading and everything they do! But then I used to live on three hours of sleep daily for many years, because I worked a lot to take care of my family and I prayed a lot. So it’s doable! I just have to have more sleep than that nowadays because my body won’t take it anymore.
Beautiful Maurizio! You pulled off something I thought was almost impossible. Your work is elegant, powerful and deep. Please continue with such "refined" art. In Gratitude, Peter
Feliz Navidad. Que de la gracia y de la experiencia recogidas de la adoración del Niño Jesus, en la Noche Buena, podamos permanecer en contemplación delante de Jesús Eucarístico todos los días del año que empeza, el 26 de deciembre, y consigamos a amar, siempre y cada vez más, a nuestro Díos Bondade. Y que nos quedemos cerca de Santa María Virgen y de San José y les amemos y les alabemos con el mismo amor y veneración con el que les há dedicado Jesús, Hijo, en esta vida. Alabado, amado e adorado sea, por siempre, y en todo el monde, y por todos los hombres, Díos Trinidad Bondade-Amor. Pido oraciones por mí hijo, Josemaría, por su madre y por su papá, por nuestra familia, familliares, amigos y vecinos.
Venerebles de Dios Bondad, os pido oraciones por mí hijo, Josemaría, que está diagnósticos hace 3,5 años. Sus éxamenes laboratorial son buenos, pero los de inmagenes han reverlado linfonofomegaliageneralizada. En el 11 de noviembre/19, sus manos, boca y lingue han perdido la sen sensibilidad. Josemaría alconzó aprobación para el curso de medicina y está inscripto para empezar el febrero/21, pero necesita de sua manos funcionando. Esto nos cuesta mucho. MÍ hijo necesita de vuestras sanctas oraciones. Muchas gracias. Nuestro Padre S. Bruno, ora pro nobis.
hi , I've always been very drawn to and very confused by the Carthusian order , but find a kindred spirit in our friend St. Bruno and always have wondered if it is really possible to be allowed to live like this ?! - by the way , the video ( music and pictures ) is drop-dead , over-the-top , pinch-yourself-to-wake-up - STUNNING ! very poetically thoughtful work ! - I know you never speak about yourselves , but is there a way to find substantial information ? anyway HAPPY FEAST OF SAINT BRUNO - ( are you allowed to celebrate his feast day ? )
Hi , I never speak about myself becuase I do not think it could be an interesting matter :) By the way I am on Facebook (as Maurzio Urbani, my real surname and family name) so if you wanna more information about me just check out my prodile on there. Thank you for your kind words. Have a nice day.
They are in this world but not of this world. This is what Jesus said for us to be. The world belongs to the EVIL ONE , he is the Prince of this world and the battle to overcome him is to be fought here. If you are interested, check out the Gospel of John : 17:14-19, 15:10, 12:31, 16:11
We were made to carry our crosses, and to me, the faces are of deep contemplation, of reflection of God. I don't see any of them burdened. They are immensely blessed. If the world lived as God wanted us too, we would all be 'burdened', but we would find try joy in it.
Many of them are very joyous. I know that many retreatents notice the joy in their faces and that’s what encourages them to join. Maybe they are less happy in France.
Dear brother in Christ, the usual way would be to make a phone call or to write a letter to the monastery and see what happens. May God bless you and keep you.
They are not afraid of the world, they are face to face with all the evil the world has. This is a special calling to pray for the world in silence because the world needs these type of men and women (Carthusians) who can see beyond the materialistic world most people live in. They are somewhat the backbone of the world, if it were not for their prayers the world would be a different place. The walls around them are not to protect them or hide them but to keep them focused on what they are supposed to do. They are fighting spiritual battles, the devil hates what they do.
It’s much more than you might think. These men(Carthusian) give up meals only eating once a day, they give up their families and friends, they give up the beauty of the world and all the things it has to offer. They are never in scandal, this order has been the same since being founded by St Bruno. All this because of the Love they have for the world and most important for God and his church. If you ever meet a Carthusian monk you’ll see how beautiful they act and how social they are. They are not running from the world.
They are most certainly not running from the world, they love it and God thats why they work so hard for us whether choir or lay brothers. They face a very arduous process of even being selected for the postulancy, which so few manage. Only 1 in 9 postulants make it to novices, and only 1 in 4 make it through that stage. They are psychologically tested and are very stable individuals. I am anglican and I really give thanks for them for the work they do for all of us.

yo tambien
If you do enter, please keep me in your prayers brother.
Diego Vargas Praise be Jesus and Mary
How did you get permission to stay at a Carthusian monastery I would love to as well?
@@johnjumper7066 You can stay for a little while before entering as a postulant bit there are no retreats as such.
No wonder Catholicism grows stronger day by day. What a sacrifice! May God keep you for us.

Very beautiful ending with monks playing in the snow
White and pure
Thank you Joe!
The end with the snow, adorable

The ending... tumbling monks coming down a ski slope. You made me smile. What a lovely song. God bless every one of you.
Thank you, I am glad you like it.
Have you visited a Carthusian monastery? How do you know so much about their life?
@@CarpeDiem-bu3lz "Into Grat Silence". See and enjoy this wonder.
Thank you fathers and brothers, may God's love fill you all.
One of the best I have seen so far ... a mixture of silence and music that is rejuvenating.
Thank you so much Jacques, I am really glad you ejoyed my music :)
I am in awe thankyou brothers so very much i am touched by God through the inspiration of the monastery God bless you all

Thank you so much Mary for your kind words towards my music :)
@@MaurizioUrbani your work is so captivating! It made me check out Carthusian nuns. I so admire these folks! 🙏🙏🙏
@@mangafq8 Thanks again Mary. Me too I admire them a lot. Chartusians monks/nuns as well as the Camaldolese Hermits of Montecorona.
They have the ultimate teacher in all things... God.
That was wonderful, Maurizio!
Thank you very much Richard
@@MaurizioUrbani You're most welcome!
If there one thing we all love, and perhaps even need, it’s a sledge 🛷.
God bless
The music was wonderful. God bless you all. Please pray for me. I will pray for you.

Thank you Lawrence
When I was a Carthusian aspirant the bells never rang at 1045 pm. The night bell tolled at midnight and the night office started at 0030.
Why didn't you enter?

Ti ricordi di me Maurizio io sì meraviglioso cantico
Perché non mi rispondi più allora non ti ricordi di me
Scusami ma ultimamente non mi sono connesso a TH-cam e così ho visto i messaggi in ritardo, Chiedo di nuovo scusa, buona serata
Dear Brothers, pray for me, my call, my duty, my parish community! Please!
The only thing I miss in those lovely faces is joy, it looks like a burden to me.
Not enough meat
In the film they laugh, but yes the lifestyle is a burden
We were made to carry our crosses, and to me, the faces are of deep contemplation, of reflection of God. I don't see any of them burdened. They are immensely blessed. If the world lived as God wanted us too, we would all be 'burdened', but we would find try joy in it.
that was my immediate thought as well, they do not look happy..where is the joy of the Lord
Many of them are very joyous. I know that many retreatents notice the joy in their faces and that’s what encourages them to join. Maybe they are less happy in France.
Helo brother, how to be a carthusian monk?
Dear brother in Christ,
the usual way would be to make a phone call or to write a letter to the monastery and see what happens. May God bless you and keep you.
INTERESTING! 🤔 Life of a Christian monk is much similar to life of Buddhist monk.
Other way around, the Buddhist monk is likened that of a Christian monk.
Almost as good ( bad) as being penned up in a yeshivah in Israel....we have common ground.
Tasty music...!
Is it possible all These
Men are scared of the world and this place is just a womb like sanctuary? Seems nice for about three days

You dont see it in our physical realm, but these monks are soldiers in the spiritual realm and fighting alongside God against Satan
