Gocko, JerzyCentnar, Paweł2026-03-102026-03-102015Seminare, 2015, Tom 36, nr 1, s. 67-78.1232-8766https://theo-logos.pl/handle/123456789/42609The subject of the article is the issue of spiritual direction in the life and activity of St. John Bosco. The first part discusses the experience of spiritual guidance received by John Bosco in his childhood. Deprived of paternal protection at the age of two, Don Bosco was himself in need of wise mentors and masters in order to become later a spiritual guide for his own pupils. Next, the article points out the specifics of Don Bosco’s spiritual direction offered to the youth of the oratory. The specific character of his methods stemmed up primarily from the type of his own spirituality as well as personal experience and moral exemplars followed by the Saint. The last part of this publication presents selected forms of Don Bosco’s spiritual direction, both at the sacramental and extra sacramental level.polCC-BY-ND - Uznanie autorstwa - Bez utworów zależnychJan Boskokierownictwo duchowesystem prewencyjnywychowanieteologiateologia duchowościkierownictwo duchowe w życiu Jana Boskosystem prewencyjny Jana Boskopedagogikapedagogika salezjańskasystem wychowawczy Jana Boskosalezjanieduchowośćduchowość salezjańskażycie duchoweżycie duchowe Jana BoskoGiovanni BoscoDon Boscospiritual guidancespiritual directionpreventive systemeducationupbringingtheologytheology of spiritualityspiritual direction in the John Bosco’s lifeJohn Bosco’s preventive systempedagogySalesian pedagogyJohn Bosco’s educational systemSalesiansspiritualitySalesian spiritualityspiritual lifeJohn Bosco’s spiritual lifeArticle
