It's only in the mysterious equations of love that any logical reasons can be framed."" In Colossians I, we read""of the mysterious equation

Goodevening! The Pine Looper Read: Jeremiah 17: 1 - 10 He shall be like a tree planted by the waters, which spreads out its roots by the river. In the summer of 1992, a fire blackened 4,500 acres of forest about 35 miles north of Atlantic city. One homeowner saw a fireball with 60 foot flames come roaring up across the street from his house, before veering away. The Associated Press quoted him as saying,"" I've worked 25 years of my life here. The thought of having it gone in 10 minutes makes you want to stay for the last possible minute."" The fire was difficult to contain because of dry conditions. The forest was dry despite rainfall, partly because of an insect called the pine looper which defoliates trees. THe dry-tree condition behind this New Jersey fire has a parallel in the history of Israel. Jeremiah said that his countrymen had become like dry shrubs in a desert rather than green trees by a river(17:6-8). Even more alarming, he said they had arou

Goodevening! From the ikigai book... To be honest, a request from most of my friends... The purity of Ghilbi There are those who say that the Shinto value of being connected with nature is vanishing. ONe of the harshest critics of this loss is another artist with a clearly defined ikigai . Hayao Miyazaki, the director of the animated films produced by Studio Ghilbi. In nearly all his films we see humans, technology, fantasy, and nature in a state of conflict-and, in the end, coming together. ONe of the most poignant metaphors in his film Spirited Away is an obese spirit covered in trash that represents the pollution of the rivers. In Miyazaki's films, forests have personalities, trees have feelings, and robots befriend birds. Considered a national treasure by the japanese government, Miyazaki is an artistcapable of becoming completely absorbed in his art. He uses a cell phone from the late 1990s, and he makes his entire team draw by hand.He"" directs"" his

Goodevening! from the book by THICH NHAT HANH... ""Many of us suffer because our communication with other people is difficult. At work, for example, we often feel we have tried everything and there is no way to reach our colleagues. This is often true in families as well. We feel our parents, our siblings, or our children are too stuck in their ways. We think no real communication is possible. Yet there are many ways to reconcile and to create openings for more compassionate communication. Communicating when you're angry One reason we have trouble communicating with others is that we often try to communicate when we are angry. WE suffer, and we don't want to be alone with all that suffering. WE believe that we are angry because of something others did, and we want them to know it. Anger has urgency to it. We want to let others know right away what the problem with them is. But, when we're angry, we aren't lucid. Acting while angry can lead to a lot of suf

Goodevening! The catholic community in India by Nirad C. Chaudhuri I became aware of the true character of Christianity as a very young student when reading Roman Hisory, and I am amazed to find how ignorant and mistaken even highly educated are about it. I ask them:''What is the message of Christianity?''At once they reply '' To love their neighbour''. They forget that this particular moral precept comes from Judaism and was only reiterated by Christianity. But they also forget the far more important fact that primarily, Christianity is not a moral code, but a view of man's relationship with God. The Christian kerygma we Hindus completely brush aside. I have never forgotten that this is the main thing about Christianity, and the more I have considered it the more important has it seemed to me, irrespective of any belief I have or do not have in the established religions.

goodevening! today the morning quotes are," You must speak to Jesus also with the heart, besides the lips; indeed in certain cases, you must speak to him only with the heart." St.Padre Pio once in a counseling session , I spoke to my spiritual director about chakras and prrsonality. the heart-chakra type: the heart chakra corresponds to the element air.Its energy bestows peace. the fourth chakra lies at the center of the chakra system and is thus closely connected ti all of the otger chakras. from this center flows energy that can penetrate all things amd turn them to the good, that affects the highest and the lowest, the power of love. love and compassion are the maim characteristics of the heart chakra. the more strongly this center is developed, the more one is moved by the selfless love that has the power to conquer all things.... from a book on spiritual practice for health, harmony and inner peace. have a blessed day!

Goodevening! My nephew got me four fighter fishes for my little aquarium. The little boy who came with him, watched these litttle fishes for a while. Earlier the question among us at home was"' what do you do when you are out of mood?"" Cannot call everything mood swings since eveery pregnant woman has that too. These two boys got some pebbles and I picked from the garden what I thought was an air purifier plant and kept it inside the little acquarium. Watching this boy watch the little 3.5 inch bottlenecked jar and the movement of fishes inside the jar reminded me of zen meditation. For me, it is relaxing and calming. My mother said when she is out of mood she likes to watch family episodes of tv serials either in her mobile or tv. My cosister who came for lunch said, as I knew already, she likes to hear songs in the play list prepared by her husband, who is abroad, in her mobile, when she is out of mood. THe other day, my nephew reported that a friend calls him

Goodevening! Yesterday I was inspired to see a gardening hack in social media ...We can take a globule of garlic and immerse it with roots down in a small glass jar of water. Once the roots come down and the green sprouts come up , we can separate each garlic and plant it in the soil 6 inches apart. It can be harvested at its various stages until it is fully done to cure. Even the peels of onion and garlic and maybe a small green chilli, if we boil it in water and filter can act as good plant pesticide. From the book on ayurveda... Guidelines for spring...

Goodevening! From a book on ""Our Lady of Fatima"" by William Thomas Walsh... It was in the convent of the Dorothean Sisters at Vilar, near Porto, that I had the privilege of conversing with Sister Maria das Dores on the afternoon of Monday, July 15, 1946. She seemed uncomfortable at first, and probably was, for she dislikes such interviews intensely, and submits to them only when ordered to do so. She wrung her hands nervously. Her pale brown eyes looked rather guarded and unfriendly. There was not much conviction in the high and timorous voice. .....when the Angel of Peace gave you Holu Communion at Cabeco, did it seem to you like a dream or vision or was it like the reality of receiving Holy Communion in a Church?"'.... She hesitated for the right word. ""I cannot be absolutely sure of that, because I was not in any ordinary state of mind during such an experience, and there was something so intimate, so interior, so intense about the appar

Goodevening! Recently, I got hold of a few pages from the book of flower remedy by Edward Bach in tamil. From Wikipedia... Edward Bach was a British medical doctor, bacteriologist, homeopath, and spiritual writer, best known for developing the Bach flower remedies, a form of alternative medicine inspired by classical homeopathic traditions. 5jst a small note from tgat: 3:6 White Chestnut …is the remedy for unwanted thoughts and mental arguments that intrude into the mind and stop us concentrating. White Chestnut thoughts are often described as ‘worrying’ – but they are not necessarily anxious or fearful, more repetitive. They worry at us like a dog worries a bone. White Chestnut thoughts go nowhere. They circle round and round in the head like a looped recording. The remedy helps us think straight. We can deal calmly and rationally with any underlying problems that might be causing the trouble. from flower therapy by doreen virtue and robert reeves... bu9na sera!

Goodevening! from the book,""She is my mother"... We fly to your patronage... I recalled the long history of this prayer. As Francis had explained, it is probably the oldest Christian prayer to Mary. It has been prayed for a long time in the rites of both the Western and the Eastern Church, although there are always alight variations in the translation. It is part of the prayers recited by many Christians, and the life of many religious communities and catholic families, and can be found in the evening prayer of the Church ( Breviary ) among the Marian antiphons. We fly to your patronage, O holy Mother of God; despise not our petitions in our necessities, but deliver us always from all dangers, O glorious and blessed Virgin. Amen. In 1917, the John Roland's Library in Manchester, England, acquired a number of Egyptian Papyri. These included a fragment measuring 18 cmx9.4cm with the Greek text of this prayer. Scientists do not agree about the age of this pap

Goodevening! from the book, "" Christianity in India: Its true face"" It is only gradually that the Tribal comes to see that Christianity's greatest gift is Christ, the one who brings God's love within human reach. To conclude the above observations, the exterior step by which one joins Christianity may be abrupt or even traumatic, but it is always felt as a liberation and a home coming. Christianity is fully in line with the traditional religion. This ought not really to surprise even those who have scant knowledge of either creed. Christianity, after all, is not an invention of the Modern West. It was born in a tribal region of Western asia, whose religion, is recorded in the old testament, was not unlike that of the Mundas. It developed many of its rituals among the farming population of Europe- then still largely tribal. The tribals of India come to their own in Christianity. The question still remains whether it helps the Tribal to take his rightful

goodevening! 2fom the book," she is my motger"... returning to our conversation, Pope Francus recalled eveb older roots of his attachment to Our Lady Help of Christians, connected with his famiky experiences before he entered the Salesian school. " My devotion to Mary, Help of Christians, came from my maternal grandparents because the priest who baptized me was a Salesian: he would often visit our home and we would visit his, and we would always ask him for the blessing of Mary, Help of Christians." he was referring to Fatger Encr8ci Pozzoli of the Salesian commu iry in Almagr9. in 1990, bergoglio's spiritual director, Fatger Pozzolu was practically the " family's spiritual fatger", exercising great influence on his religious life and " to whom they would always go when they had a problem or wanted advice." He added that" When I visit Our Motger, Help of Christians,I also go past the baptism font to give thanks for the gift of my

goodevening! 2fom national catholic broadcasting council, Canada... Msgr. Sam Bianco The word "abide" is a very old English word. In the Gospels, the word is used at least 14 times. And over the whole of Scriptures, it's present probably 100 times. And the word means, in its old form, "stay with", "remain", "live with", "abide with me", "stay with me", "be faithful". And we understand what that kind of spirit is in a human development. If we have a good human spirit, many of the things that Jesus is talking about are present to us. We become advocates for those who suffer. To be an advocate is to be a lawyer, to speak out on behalf of people who suffer unjustly, to take the side of sometimes what are called the losers, and to say, "No, we're not going to abandon them." I need advocates, I need people to defend me, and other people need them, as well. So, a good human spirit is one that's c

Goodevening! From the book Nature Cure... 11 Role of Exercises The importance of exercise cannot be over emphasised-brisk walking, jogging or yoga or hard games are vitally important for health. These activities are an easy way for most people to get regular exercises, as these do not require special facilities or equipments. However, one should consult a doctor before starting any exercise programme. A 60 year old man, who exercises regularly is more fit than a 40 years who takes no physical exercise. Swimming is by far the best form of exercise for everyone. It makes the whole body work without over-burdening it. Benefits a. Makes you feel more energetic, enables better use of oxygen in the body, increases the lung capacity and also increases metabolic rate; b.

Goodevening! today I was thinking about God and the angels... 3smedays it is mother Mary and the angels... Once I learnt in a consciousness meditation, ""Be in constant remembrance of God."" Whatever you do throughtout the day, Let God be your master. When Jesus went through the passion of His cross, praying deeply to HIs father in heaven, in the garden of Gethsemane, Jerusalem, on thursday night after the last supper just before he was brought before Pilate, when He asked his disciples in desperation to pray with Him, an angel might have appeared before Him and would have said, showing Him a ""vessel"" and to do this in remembrance of Him and thus the eucharistic celebration was created. During His lifetime on earth, he might have seen earth angels as humans under the tree and might have called upon them to see if His father in Heaven sent them. And of course, God in heaven was in constant remembrance of His son, that He sent the angel to

It had been entrusted to Mother Teresa of Calcutta and her Missionary Sisters of Mercy by Pope John Paul II. The beautiful speech that Pope Francis gave on that occasion offers us a glimpse into his understanding of the intimate relationship between Mary and charity to one's neighbour. In his brief speech the Pope focussed on the three words by which the shelter is named: home, gift, and Mary. A home is a,""place of hospitality."" It has a "" typically familiar flavour, which recalls warmth, affection, the love that can be felt in a family."" It represents"" the most precious human treasures, that of encounter, that of re

During his visit to Brazil, in addition to making a point to visit the National Shrine, he mentioned Our Lady of Aparecida and the CELAM Conference that took place there more than fifty times in his speeches. After all, he had lived it intensely.As I have already said, this is where we came to know each other personally, as I was one of the two secretaries on the commission over which Bergoglio had presided. I believe that it was thanks to that meeting that I was invited to be his secretary during his visit to Brazil.
