St. Ignatius of Loyola, the founder of the Society of Jesus, was born in 1491, as the last child of a large Basque family of Spain. The name Loyola came from the ancestral castle which was the family heritage of St. Ignatius. According to the traditions of his family, Ignatius was trained for arms and the etiquette of court life. He enlisted himself in the border wars with France and was badly wounded in battle. As he was convalescing at Loyola, he read Gospel narratives and the lives of saints and was inspired to follow Christ by giving up all worldly ambitions and trappings of power and embracing a life of poverty, sacrifice and service after the example of his saintly mentors. He began this new life at the age of 31, and spent a year of severe penance and intense prayer in a solitary cave on the banks of the river Condoner near the town Manresa. He recorded his experiences in a book called “The Spiritual Exercises” which became the soul and center, the rule and character of every Jesuit who came thereafter. Reflecting on the crisis in the Church of his time, he felt the need of the hour was learned and holy priests, free of greed and ambition and ready to serve the poor and to bear witness to the love of Christ for all.
To achieve this objective, he set himself in right earnest to study from grammar school to college and university in the various Spanish centers of learning and finally took his Master’s Degree from the Sorbonne University, Paris. At the same time, he won over a group of brilliant and likeminded university men (like St Francis Xavier) molded them by the Spiritual Exercises and welded them into a religious fraternity which became the Society of Jesus or Jesuits, as they popularly came to be known in the course of time.
