Summary/Abstract: This article confronts the private revelations of sister Faustyna Kowalska and mother Eugenia Elisabetta Ravasio. Their subject was two persons of the Holy Trinity: God the Father and Jesus Christ. The author shows the common threads of meaning contained in communications from both revelations and analyses the structure of the vision of the two nuns. According to the author, their characteristic feature is a combination of conceptual cognition and visual cognition, rarely seen in the history of private revelations. As part of the analysis of the sphere of meaning, an attempt is also made to read the common purpose of the activities of the persons of the Holy Trinity revealed to the mystics.
