EL ESCAPULARIOS DE LA VIRGEN DEL CARMEN
Origen del Escapulario
En el Medioevo muchos cristianos querían unirse a las Ordenes religiosas fundadas entonces: Franciscanos, Dominicos, Agustinos, Carmelitas. Surgió un laicado asociado a ellas mediante las Confraternidades. Las Ordenes religiosas trataron de dar a los laicos un signo
de afiliación y de participación en su espíritu y apostolado. Este signo estaba constituido
por una parte significativa del hábito: capa, cordón, escapulario. Entre los Carmelitas se
estableció el Escapulario, en forma reducida, como expresión de pertenencia a la Orden
y de compartir su devoción mariana. Actualmente el Escapulario de la Virgen del Carmen
es un signo aprobado por la Iglesia y propuesto por la Orden Carmelitana como manifestación del amor de María por nosotros y como expresión de confianza filial por parte
nuestra en Ella, cuya vida queremos imitar. El "Escapulario" en su origen era un delantal
que los monjes vestían sobre el hábito religioso durante el trabajo manual. Con el tiempo
asumió el significado simbólico de querer llevar la cruz de cada día, como los verdaderos
seguidores de Jesús. En algunas Ordenes religiosas, como el Carmelo se convirtió en el
signo de la decisión de vivir la vida como siervos de Cristo y de María. El Escapulario
simbolizó el vínculo especial de los Carmelitas a María, Madre del Señor, expresando la
confianza en su materna protección y el deseo de seguir su ejemplo de donación a Cristo
y a los demás. Así se ha transformado en un signo Mariano por excelencia.
El Escapulario, signo mariano El Escapulario ahonda sus raíces en la larga historia de la Orden, donde representa el compromiso de seguir a Cristo como María, modelo perfecto de todos los discípulos de Cristo. Este compromiso tiene su origen lógico en el bautismo que nos transforma en hijos de Dios. La Virgen nos enseña
* A vivir abiertos a Dios y a su voluntad, manifestada en los acontecimientos de la vida;
* A escuchar la voz (palabra) de Dios en la Biblia y en la vida, poniendo después en práctica las exigencias de esta
voz;
* A orar fielmente sintiendo a Dios presente en todos los acontecimientos;
* A vivir cerca de nuestros hermanos y a ser solidarios con ellos en sus necesidades.
El Escapulario introduce en la fraternidad del Carmelo, es decir en una gran comunidad de religiosos y religiosas que,
nacidos en Tierra Santa, están presentes en la Iglesia desde hace más de ocho siglos.
• Compromete a vivir el ideal de esta familia religiosa, que es la amistad íntima con Dios a través de la oración
•Pone delante el ejemplo delos santos y santas del Carmelo con quienes se establece una relación familiar de hermanos
y hermanas.
•Expresa la fe en el encuentro con Dios en la vida eterna por la intercesión de María y su protección.
En síntesis y en concreto
EL ESCAPULARIO DEL CARMEN
NO ES
• Ni un objeto para una protección mágica (un amuleto)
• Ni una garantía automática de salvación
• Ni una dispensa para no vivir las exigencias de la vida cristiana, al revés!
ES
•Un signo "fuerte" aprobado por la Iglesia desde hace varios siglos, ya que representa nuestro compromiso de seguir a
Jesús como María:
* Abiertos a Dios y a su voluntad
* Guiados por la fe, por la esperanza y por el amor
* Cercanos al prójimo necesitado
* orando constantemente y descubriendo a Dios presente en todas las circunstancias
• un signo que introduce en la familia del Carmelo
• un signo que alimenta la esperanza del encuentro con Dios en la vida eterna bajo la protección de María Santísima.
Normas prácticas
• El Escapulario lo impone una vez para siempre, un religioso carmelita u otra persona autorizada.
• Puede ser sustituido por una medalla que represente por una parte la imagen del Sagrado Corazón de Jesús, y por
otra la de la Virgen. Esta medalla se bendice cuando se cambia.
• El Escapulario es para los cristianos auténticos que viven conforme a las exigencias evangélicas, reciben los Sacramentos y profesan una especial devoción a la Santísima Virgen (expresada con el rezo cotidiano de al menos tres Ave Marías).

THE BROWN SCAPULAR.
A sign of Mary
One of the signs in the tradition of the Church from many centuries ago is the Brown Scapular of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. It is a sign approved by the Church and accepted by the
Carmelite Order as an external sign of love for Mary, of the trust her children have in her,
and of commitment to live like her.
The word scapular indicates a form of clothing, which monks wore when they were working.
With the passage of time, people began to give symbolic meaning to it: the cross to be
borne every day as disciples and followers of Christ. In some religious orders, such as the
Carmelites, the Scapular turned into a sign of their way of life. The Scapular came to symbolize the special dedication of Carmelites to Mary, the Mother of God, and to express trust
in her motherly protection as well as the desire to be like her in her commitment to Christ and
to others. Thus it became a sign of Mary.
In the Middle Ages many Christians wanted to be associated with the orders founded at that time: Franciscans, Dominicans, Augustinians, and Carmelites. Groups of lay people began to emerge in associations such as confraternities and
sodalities.
All the religious orders wanted to give these lay people a sign of affiliation and of participation in their spirit and apostolate. That sign was often a part of their habit: a cloak, a cord, a scapular.
Among the Carmelites, the stage came when a smaller version of the Scapular was accepted as the sign of belonging to
the Order and an expression of its spirituality.
Value and Meaning
The Blessed Virgin teaches us:
 To be open to God, and to his will, shown to us in the events of our lives;
 To Listen to the Word of God in the Bible and in life, to believe in it and to put into practice its demands;
 To pray at all times, as a way of discovering the presence of God in all that is happening around us; to be involved
with people, being attentive to their needs.
The Scapular finds its roots in the tradition of the Order, which has seen in it a sign of Mary’s motherly protection. It has
therefore, a centuries old spiritual meaning approved by Church.
It stands for a commitment to follow Jesus, like Mary, the perfect model of all the disciples of Christ. This commitment finds
its origin in baptism by which we become children of God.

It leads us into the community of Carmel, a community of religious men and women, which has existed in the Church
for over eight centuries.
 It reminds us of the example of the saints of Carmel, with whom we establish a close bond as brothers and sisters to
one another.
It is an expression of our belief that we will meet God in eternal life, aided by the intercession and prayers of Mary.
Rules and Rituals
 People are enrolled in the Scapular only once by a priest or authorized person.
 The Scapular can be replaced afterwards by a medal, which has on one side the image of the Sacred Heart of Jesus
and on the other, the image of Mary.
The Carmelite Scapular is not:
 a magical charm to protect you
 an automatic guarantee of salvation
 an excuse for not living up to the demands of the Christian life
It is a sign:
 which has been approved by the Church for over seven centuries;
 which stands for the decision to
 follow Jesus like Mary:
 be open to God and to his will
 be guided by faith, hope, and love
 to pray at all times to discover God present in all that happens around us.

THE PROPHET ELIJAH AND THE CARMELITES
Feast Day: July 20th
At the time of the Crusades some warriors, attracted by the beauty of Carmel, by its
geographical position and also by the memory of the prophet, retired to the mount. At
the beginning of the XIII cent. James de Vitry traced a retrospective picture of the spiritual rebirth of the Holy Land after the Crusades of the XI and XII centuries: «Pilgrims
devoted to God and religious men streamed to the Holy Land from the various parts of
the world... Some holy men, however, renounced the world, drawn as they were by various affections and desires and inflamed with religious fervor; they chose for themselves
places more suited to their purpose and devotion. ... Others, after the example and in
imitation of the holy and solitary man, Elias the prophet, led a solitary life on Mount Carmel, and especially on that part which overlooks the city of Porphyria, which today is
called Haifa, near the fountain, which is called the fountain of Elias, not far from the monastery of the blessed virgin Margaret. Like
bees of the Lord, they produced the honey of spiritual sweetness in their honeycombs of modest cells» (Historia orientalis sive hierosolymitana I, capp. 15-52; ed. J. Bongers, Gesta Dei per Francos, Hanover, 1611, p. 1075).
Between the years 1206-14 a group of Latin hermits, who lived «near the fountain on Mount Carmel» received from the hands of
Albert, Patriarch of Jerusalem, a «formula of life,» confirmed in 1226 by Pope Honorius HI. They are the Carmelites, the Friars of
Our Lady of Carmel and the sons of Elias. It is not certain whether it was veneration of the prophet Elias that led these hermits to Carmel. The rule does not speak of the Carmelite life as inspired by Elias. Later, in his Fiery Arrow, Nicholas of Gaul, wishing to bring the
Carmelites back to the purity of the hermitical life, will not evoke the example of the great solitary of the Old Testament. More probably, the fact of finding themselves on Mount Carmel and, later, the memory of this fact contributed to the birth and development of
the hermits' devotion to St. Elias. Only in the course of their history did the theme of Elias become an «integral part» of Carmelite
spirituality. Some allusion to the progressive legend of an hermitical life continued on Mount Carmel, from the times of Elias until the
Crusades, is found in the first rubric of the Constitutions of the chapter of London in 1281: «We declare, therefore, in order to witness
to the truth, that, beginning with the prophets Elias and Eliseus, who were devout dwellers on Mount Carmel, a number of saintly fathers of both the Old and New Testaments, duly impressed by the solitude of this mountain so well adapted to the contemplation of
heavenly things, have doubtlessly lived there, near the fountain of Elias, in a laudable manner in uninterrupted, holy penance with
holy results. During the time of Innocent III, Albert, patriarch of the church of Jerusalem, united their successors into one community
(collegium) and wrote a rule for them which Pope Honorius, the successor of Innocent, and numerous others after him, in approving this
Order, confirmed. This devout approval of the Order is evidenced by their various bulls. It is in this profession that we, their disciples,
serve the Lord until today in various parts of the world» (Latin text in Anal. 0. C, XV /1950/, p. 208).
There was still a difference between the first hermits of the Old and New Testaments, and their successors in the epoch of Pope Innocent III. In the first rubric of the constitutions of 1324, however, the successors already appear at the time of Christ. It is thus that the
idea was formed of the uninterrupted hereditary succession of the Carmelite Order. This conviction will lead to the sad struggle between the Carmelites and D. Papenbroeck. Meanwhile the figure of Elias became ever more significant in the spirituality of the Order; in the XV cent. Thomas of Walden wrote, without any further distinctions: «Our profession spurs us on to his outlook» (Mhc, p.
446).
It seems that it was John Baconthorp, who died in 1346, who for the first time united the Marian devotion of the Order of Carmel with
the memory of the prophet Elias: «According to the prophets (prophecies?), the friars of Carmel originated especially for the veneration of the blessed Mary... And since /the blessed Mary/ is honored and preached through Carmel, it is fitting that on Carmel, which
is dedicated to her, she should have the Carmelites who venerate her in a special way. This is how it was in ancient times; in reality,
prophecies are understood in the light of subsequent facts... How many prophets and kings has Carmel had who through their deeds
rendered honor to the Lady of the place, the blessed Mary! It was in order to continue the cult of the blessed Mary on Carmel that
the Order of the Friars of Carmel had its origin. For, veneration given in places sacred to the saints is attributed, after God, to the
saints themselves... But even if all those who were to be saved at the time of the prophets rendered honor to the Son Who was to
come through the blessed Mary..., nevertheless, it was the friars of Carmel, venerating Him Who was to come at the time of Elias and
Eliseus, who began their Order of the blessed Mary on Carmel... Therefore, it is by reason of this veneration that they took
root» (Speculum de institutione Ordinis /Mirror on the institution of the Order/, cap. 1; the Latin text also in Élie, t. II, pp. 42-43). The
most complete form of this Elian and prophetic spirituality is found in a book of the XIV century, the Liber de institutione primorum
monuchorum /Book on the institution of the first monks/; the text also in Anal. O. C, III /1914-16/, pp. 347-49.
