The crosspar excellence, one in whichJesus wassacrificedfor the redemptionof men, a symbol of his passionand objectof worshipfor Christians, itsublimatesat the resurrectionof Christ evento disappear, to befoundin each of usin the momentof pain, torment and tribulationsof everyday life: unremittingthat accompanylife's journey.
As well asJesus at thetime of deathlooks to thesky toobtain comfortand courage, our soul in themoment of maximumdistresslooking for somethingto hold on to...a signfrom heavenme to helpto overcome asearing pain.
In ascendingto heaven, Christ leaves behindreigningevilon earth: thesame diseasethat causeddeath, as well asfratricidecaused the deathof man to man. The evil thatis hidingbehind a mask ofgood manners, conformity and symbolsthat drawin themselvestojustifythelargesthumanvileness.
