There is a prayer being circulated and is attributed to Saint Augustine, which aims to console those who recently lost a loved one. You can find this in many places of the Internet. “Do not cry if you love me.” I did not find any reference to any work of the saint. Can you tell me if this prayer belongs to St. Augustine and where can I find the source? To read the response to this question

Good evening, I have a doubt. Is there a sermon, a biblical or exegetical commentary, in which Saint Augustine meditates on the festivity of the Candelaria? I thank you, brothers for your response. May God bless you. Jeft Laredo To read the response to this question

You published in your Web the following notice: “Benedict the XVI grounds himself in St. Augustine as he declares 2012 as ‘Year of Faith’”. Don’t you think it’s a little bit exaggerated? Is Augustine really that great influence in the teachings of Benedict XVI? To read the response to this question

I read recently a wonderful novel, “The Healer of Horses” by Gonzalo Giner, where the protagonist was subjected to a test that consists in memorizing a book in Latin. My attention was caught because it was a book of St. Augustine. The text reads literally: “It was a treatise entitled The Origin of the True and the False” and was written by St. Augustine… then (Diego, the protagonist) closed the book and began to recite (from memory) the first paragraph: Noliforas ire; in teipsumredit; in interiorehominehabitarveritas… (p. 604). What can you say about this? To read the response to this question

I would like to know if the pictures, images or paintings that portray St. Augustine with a miter and a staff are faithful, from the point of view of history, to the image of the bishop of the fourth and fifth centuries? Or is this but an artistic anachronism? John Preston Rodgers. To read the response to this question

I would like to know: According to Augustine, how do we really know that we are doing the will of God? How do I know that what I choose is what God wills for me? Why is God slow in answering our prayers for health? Attentively. Lucy. To read the response to this question

We know from memory many phrases that explain our Augustinian signs and symbols, but few are capable of citing concrete texts of our Father St. Augustine. Are there texts that explain the meaning of the belt, the book or the flaming heart pierced with an arrow? To read the response to this question
