All people are looking for happiness, and throughout the history of humanity, different proposals have emerged that pretend to achieve this goal. Two thousand years ago, Jesus of Nazareth lived in the region of Palestine and Israel, who with his life and doctrine has proposed a path of human fulfillment. Among his followers, between the 15th and 16th centuries, in the Basque Country lived saint Ignatius of Loyola, whose spirituality originated from a “peak experience “in Pamplona is still followed and lived by thousands of people around the world. The Spiritual Exercises, developed between 1521 and 1548, are the “itinerary” in which Íñigo López de Loyola discovered God, and he developed his purpose of life and some other elements that may let us call him a “self-realized person”, according to the definition and studies that, almost four hundred years later in America were developed and published by the psychologist Abraham H. Maslow, providing the basis for Humanist Psychology. Throughout this research, a hermeneutical analysis will be made between the writings of Saint Ignatius of Loyola and those of Maslow to establish what elements they have in common, and thus contextualize and update the Ignatian proposal, which is none other than a radical follow-up of Jesus of Nazareth, archetype of the “eternal self-actualization”. Aristóteles dijo: “El fin supremo del hombre es la felicidad”. Toda la gente está buscando la felicidad, y a lo largo de la historia de la humanidad han surgido distintas propuestas que aspiran a lograr esta meta. Hace dos mil años, en la región de Palestina-Israel vivió Jesús de Nazaret, quien con su vida y doctrina propone un camino de plenitud humana. De todos sus seguidores, entre los siglos XV y XVI en el País Vasco destaca san Ignacio de Loyola, cuya espiritualidad surgida a raíz de una “experiencia cumbre” en Pamplona aún es seguida y vivida por miles de personas en todo el mundo. Los Ejercicios Espirituales, desarrollados entre 1521 y 1548, son el “itinerario” en el que Íñigo López de Loyola descubrió a Dios, y fue trabajando su sentido de vida y algunos otros elementos que bien le valen ser llamado “persona autorrealizada”, según la definición y estudios que, casi 400 años después, en América, desarrolló y publicó el psicólogo Abraham H. Maslow, dándole base a la Psicología Humanista. A lo largo de esta investigación se hará un análisis hermenéutico entre los escritos de Ignacio de Loyola y los de Maslow para establecer qué elementos tienen en común, y así contextualizar y actualizar la propuesta ignaciana, que no es otra más que el seguimiento radical de Jesús de Nazaret, arquetipo de la “eterna autorrealización”.
