Living in a small castle because of his noble birth, the boy grew up to be well educated, with fondness for clothes, beautiful ladies and the unflinching sounds of battle. He thought of himself as a great soldier, and he was indeed one. Although he thought himself to be a great lover, it seems that God had a different plan for Indigo of Loyola. Wounded in the battle of Pampalona in 1521 against the French, he resume to his couch, enduring much pain and boredom. Primarily to cast away from his present state that he took on to reading the lives of great saints like St. Dominic and St. Francis of Assisi and vowed to live like them. Gradually by God's grace he was transformed and had set his step on the rocky path that would lead him to Salamanca, Paris, Venice, Jerusalem and Rome. By this time he was known as Ignatius of Loyola who received from Pope Julius III, a decree proclaiming that he and his little group of nine followers would happen to be known as the "Society of Jesus" in the year 1540 in Rome.
