Abstract
The union of man and creation with God, reflected in the "meditations" of St Maximus Confessor. God created all that exists out of love, wishing to share His eternally good existence with all creation. But the world cannot enter into a personal relationship with God, not being a person. That is why the Creator has placed in its midst man, who is the rational and personal representative of creation. He has been endowed with the vocation of uniting all that exists within himself and drawing the whole world into the most intimate communion with God. St Maximus Confessor describes this vocation of man through a series of five mediations that Adam had to carry out: mediation between man and woman, paradise and the inhabited world, heaven and earth, the intelligible and the sensible, the created and the uncreated
