  • „Apart from the element of water, the rites and texts of Ash Wednesday include the burning of the leftover palms, rendering them into ashes, in turn to be blessed with holy water, in reference to baptism. (Irwin 2023, p. xi; Guardini [Sacred Signs] 1956, pp. 53–55). The “primal” element of fire, emblematic of Christ’s resurrection and restoration of life, is central in the Easter Vigil. Yet the process of burning occurs as a result of devastating wars around the world which are happening at the time of writing. (ibid.), p. xii) The same can be said of the burning of incense and smoke in the constant offering to God. Romano Guardini was speaking in the following terms about the use of burnt incense and smoke: “The offering of an incense is a generous and beautiful rite. The bright grains of incense are laid upon the red-hot charcoal, the censer is swung, and the fragrant smoke rises in clouds.” (Guardini 1956, pp. 57–58)“
  • „This would lead to a renewed and authentic participation in the Eucharist, both the centripetal and centrifugal forces of reparation and restoration effected by God. It enables a glimpse into the kenotic and transcending love which has redeemed the world through humility, the antidote to original sin. Humility entails a renunciation, that is to say, “the abdication of self-rule and self-sufficiency (Guardini [The Spirit of the Liturgy], 1940, p. 144)”. It responds by positive action and by the negation of the effects of pride, hence “by the acceptance of the spiritual principles which the liturgy offers and which far transcend the little world of individual spiritual existence” (ibid.).“
