It is impossible to derive any political programme from the worship of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, since it is not the aim of it. Its central idea is the shaping of human life, so that it fully express itself and mature in relation to God, and concurrently develop the most adequate reference to earthly life. It means then that we can rightfully ask about what “form” could be given to political activity which has its source and derives from the worship of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Analysing the stated question in this particular way, we can focus on several fundamental issues, signifi cant for Christian political commitment. Th e worship of the Sacred Heart strengthens the conviction that politics is a work of love, and emphasises the integral approach to man as a being of internal unity. When the church worship is rightly understood it may serve as a starting point for conclusions dealing with the separation of the sacred from the secular. Finally, the authentic worship points out to the need of defence of human nature and treating it as the major principle of conduct. In this general meaning the worship of the Sacred Heart advises how the Church may contribute to politics.
