Josefina Chacín Ducharne

A Life Surrendered to the Divine Will
Josefina Chacín Ducharne was a Venezuelan spiritual figure whose life was utterly transformed by a profound encounter with God in 1954. She described this as an explosion of Love, Light, and Wisdom that revealed to her the reality of the “All” (God) and her own “nothingness” without Him.

Her Writings

Flights to the New Earth

A description, both conceptual and graphic, of the great awakening of man from the dark “night” of the unconsciousness in which he is submersed to the full light of Consciousness when, breaking the shell of his “self,” he soars in lofty “flight” toward the encounter with his complementary Divine Reality, his true Being.          A companion to The “New Earth” of the new man.

Man’s Pilgrimage towards the “New Earth”

This booklet is an introductory synopsis of the “Message to the men of the New Earth.” It was printed in four languages on the occasion of an Exposition of the drawings and books of the “New Earth” Series in the Franciscan “Christian Information Centre” in Jerusalem, during the years 1979-1981. The Exposition, centered on the theme of the inner pilgrimage, had the purpose of offering a moment of reflection, especially for pilgrims to the Holy Land.

Pilgrimage of the People of God

The work illustrates the great return of Man to the eternal bosom from which he sprang forth, passing through a long pilgrimage in time, traced out in the Biblical revelation from Genesis to the Apocalypse. This pilgrimage was lived as image in Israel’s Exodus from Egypt and its journey towards the Promised Land, and has been lived as reality, in its “first fruits,” in the death-to-self and Resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is man’s journey, into the depths of himself, towards the encounter with his true Being, as an individual person as well as a member of the universal People of God.

Living the Gospel with the Mother

The word “Mother,” in its highest acceptation, is the name ascribed to the Will of God, who, through the instrumentality of the humble Mary let it be done unto me according to thy word begot the Word in Mary’s day…. This same Will is the “Mother” who nourished the man Jesus with Herself, from the very beginning to the supreme moment of his existence among us: My food is to do the will of Him who has sent me ….
To think that we can nourish ourselves with the Word of God and can “live the Gospel” without tending toward this unity with God’s Will –the “Mother”– and without depending on Her, is a vain and sterile presumption, for no one other than She can communicate to us the authentic Spirit of the “Word of God.”

“I,” in Christ Arisen

The mystical path, according to the spirit of St. Theresa of Ávila and St. John of the Cross in thirteen stanzas and their corresponding explanations, received by the slave of the Lord in Avila, Spain.
The reader is invited to undertake the spiritual pilgrimage guided by the Spirit of Truth through the straight and narrow path, encountering temptations, aridities, dark nights, Tabor experiences…, until he is finally confronted with the decision to freely accept the invitation to the death-to-self on the cross of the Will of God, to eventually be resurrected “in Christ Arisen.”
This contemporary presentation of the mystical path makes it accessible to the ordinary man, to each and every person of good will who goes with groans, seeking through other ways the happiness he has left in his Creator.

Messages of Life

Here we have the heart of the mystical experience of the slave of the Lord in a series of “messages” that were for her, since the early years, a constant spiritual nourishment. They are the seeds that were to sprout and become embodied later on in the books of the “New Earth” series.
In her Presentation to the book, she confides the following: For more than twenty years I have been waiting for this moment, marked by the Lord, in order to transmit to all souls of good will the “Messages” I have received, which announce to us what we are now living and give us the light to make our definitive choice.

Insights and Inspirations

This supplement to Messages of Life gathers together some new intuitions received in the subsequent years in her intimate communion with the Lord.
