4. The Transfiguration
We contemplate Jesus on Mount Tabor, shining like the sun while Moses and Elijah speak with Him. Peter falls to the ground, overcome by glory. Then the vision fades, leaving only the voice: “This is my beloved Son; listen to Him.”
This mystery teaches desire for holiness and spiritual vision. The Christian must climb the mountain of prayer to see Christ’s light, then descend to carry that light into ordinary life. Holiness is seeing the divine behind all things.
