THE KINGSHIP OF CHRIST....

CHAPTER III
AN OUTLINE OF THE THEOLOGY OF HISTORY

ACCEPTANCE OF CHRIST THE KING AND SUBSEQUENT REJECTION

… The crucifixion of our Lord Jesus Christ was the rejection by the Jewish nation of God’s programme for order. They refused to accept that there was any life higher than their national life and they would not hear of the non-Jewish nations coming in as members of the messianic kingdom, on the same level as themselves. …

The so-called Reformation did not attempt to set up a supranational organisation in the place of the Catholic Church. That was reserved for the French Revolution, in which was witnessed the first appearance in public of the new ideal of a purely naturalistic society striving for the universality that belongs only to the Catholic Church. Modern history since 1879 has been, to a large extent, the account of the domination of state after state by the naturalistic supranationalism of Freemasonry, behind which has been steadily looming up the still more strongly organised naturalistic supranationalism of the Jewish nation. That is why the post-revolutionary epoch has witnessed, in country after country, persistent attacks on the programme of Christ the King in regard to the Church, the state, the family, education, the religious Orders, the press and private property. Soon after every successful Judaeo-Masonic revolution, since the first in 1789 down to and including the Spanish Revolution of 1931, the world has begun to hear of the country’s entering upon the path of “progress” by the introduction of “enlightened” reforms, such as, the separation of Church and state, the legalisation of divorce, the suppression and banishment of religious orders and congregations, the glorification of Freemasonry, the secularisation of the schools, the nationalisation of property and the unrestrained licence of the press. This is Satan’s programme for the elimination of the supernatural influence of Christ the King and all consideration of membership of Christ. Satan himself knows well that the carrying out of his programme can only lead to savagery and chaos, through the ruthless enslavement of the many by the few. As time goes on and the attack on God’s rights develops, human beings are treated less and less as persons, more and more as individuals. This is the morally inevitable consequence of the domination of the Citizen over the Christian and a sure sign of Satan’s increasing influence over society. “Russia” or “Moscow” is but the prolongation of the principles of the French Revolution and the culmination of a long series of efforts. If Marx’s efforts had succeeded in the Paris Commune of 1871, France would have been exploited instead of Russia.


Thus, in practically every country in Europe, in which the whole people once worshipped the Blessed Trinity in union with Christ as priest in Holy Mass and strove to organise their social life under Christ the King in accordance with that protestation of homage, Satan has succeeded at one time or another in setting up a native government hostile to the Mass and to the rule of Christ the King. There are still two exceptions — Poland and Ireland. In these two countries Satan cannot yet boast that he has succeeded in getting a native government to insult the Mass and attack the formation of children as members of Christ. But those two countries, so remarkable for their traditional loyalty to God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ, whom He has sent, are weakening in their grasp of order. While some of the other countries that had succumbed to the wiles of Satan and his emissaries in the past, have begun to react and are returning to our Lord and His Church, these two countries have declared themselves indifferent to Him. Article 114 of the Polish Constitutional Law of March 17th, 1921, re-enacted by the Constitutional Law of April 23, 1935, states: “The Roman Catholic faith, being the religion of the great majority of the nation, occupies a leading position in the State among other religions, which, however, enjoy equal rights.” In Ireland, by Article 44 of the Constitution in operation from December 29th, 1937, “The State recognises the special position of the Holy Catholic Apostolic and Roman Church as the guardian of the faith professed by the great majority of the citizens” and recognises equally … the Jewish congregations as the Churches of the minorities. Thus the Polish state and the Irish state, to put the matter succinctly, declare themselves, as such, indifferent to the struggle between the true Supernatural Messias and the natural messias.1



SOME NATIONAL REACTIONS
We have seen that modem history since 1789 has been to a large extent the account of the domination of state after state by the naturalistic supranationalism of Freemasonry, behind which has been gradually and steadily emerging the still more strongly organised naturalistic supranationalism of the Jewish nation. Now, since human society, just like individual men, cannot avoid essential deviations from order unless it submits to God through our Lord Jesus Christ, the anti-supernatural revolt has brought about inevitable disorder and decay, even in the natural life of nations. The imposition of an anti-supernatural form has inevitably resulted in natural decline. This has shown itself especially in the Catholic countries, because the naturalistic forces have devoted particular energy to the attack on the elements of supernatural organisation still to be found in these countries, with disastrous consequences for the national life. But the Protestant countries have not been spared. In them, however, by the fact of the accepted separation of the Christian and the Citizen the de-supernaturalising process was already well on its way. It has been continued by the widespread legalisation of divorce, the elimination of true Christian education, and especially by the developing domination of money with its complete reversal of order. This reversal of order involves the subordination of members of Christ, actual or potential to the production of material goods and of production to finance. The results are to be seen, in the treatment of human beings as mere individuals not as persons, in the decay of family-life, in the increasing socialisation of property, and in the subjection of nations to those who control money.

…

SPAIN’S REACTION
Spain’s reaction against the principles of the French Revolution has been the most poignant and the most thorough, for, after Russia, it was in Spain that the “rights of man” came nearest to the complete overthrow of the rights of God. The history of Spain and Portugal since the beginning of the nineteenth century may be well summed up in these words of Père Deschamps: “The revolutions which have succeeded one another in these countries [Spain and Portugal] have been caused for the most part by the rivalry between different sections of Freemasonry. These work together harmoniously in the struggle against Christian social order but tear one another to pieces when they have attained power. The same holds true for Mexico . . . ”2

The Spanish Revolution of 1931 was a Masonic revolution. A Masonic bulletin published by M. Léon de Poncins proclaims it to the world: “The new Republic,” we read therein, “is the perfect embodiment of our doctrines and our principles. It would be impossible to bring about a political revolution more completely Masonic than the Spanish Revolution.”3. The Masonic revolution was intended to be only the forerunner of the Communist revolution, but General Franco rose to do battle for the rights of God and saved Spain for Christ the King.



PORTUGAL’S REACTION
Portugal’s reaction against Judaeo-Masonic disorder has been on the whole peaceful, but it is well to have it known that if General Carmona and Dr. Salazar have been able to continue their work of orderly reorganisation, Freemasonry has not been idle. In 1931 and again in 1935 the Grand Orient attempted to get rid of them but failed. Everybody knows that the revolution of 1910, which put an end to the monarchy was the work of Freemasonry.4

In regard to the points of the divine plan for order concerning the relation of the state to the Catholic Church, the family, and the education of members of Christ, the Portuguese Constitution favours the return to order, while considering it prudent to take account of the results of decay and to await the development of the right mentality towards the divine plan through education. Thus “the State shall maintain the régime of separation in relation to the Catholic Church and any other religion or cult practised within the Portuguese territory,”5 but will keep up diplomatic relations with the Holy See with reciprocity of representation. Civil marriage and civil divorce are allowed, but the state will not permit Catholics married by the Church to apply for civil divorce. The state will not, therefore, aid the revolt of Catholic members of Christ against Christ.

The Portuguese corporative state fully recognises the fact that man is not only an individual subordinate to the state but also a person for whose well being and development the state itself exists.



IRELAND’S REACTION
The struggle against England on the national level has so absorbed the attention of Irishmen that relatively few of them ever envisage that struggle in its full relation to the vaster and more intensely realconflict waged between our Lord Jesus Christ and Satan. They know that when England embraced the heretical doctrines of the so-called Reformers in the sixteenth century, Ireland remained steadfast in its hold on order, but they do not accurately know what has been the effect of the French Revolution on Ireland considered from the point of view of the vital struggle between Christ and Satan which is being waged in the world. We have seen that the progress of the French Revolution has meant the successive renunciation by states of all acknowledgment of the Mystical Body of Christ and the supernatural order, under the influence of the naturalistic supranationalism of Freemasonry and the Jewish nation. As a consequence all religions are placed on the same footing, that is, the Catholic Church is placed “on the same level as heretical sects and even as Jewish perfidy,” to use the expression of Pope Pius VII.6 The State thus declares itself indifferent in the struggle between our Lord Jesus Christ and the New Messias and we know that “he who is not with me is against me” (St. Matt. XII, 30).


The widespread ignorance in Ireland of the meaning of naturalism and of the significance of the principles of 1789 is shown by the repeated exhortations to Irish men to accept without discrimination all the principles of Wolfe Tone and James Connolly. One of the great tragedies of these men’s lives was that they were caught up in movements whose inner significance and ultimate orientation they were far from realising. This tragedy is even more poignant in the case of James Connolly than in that of Wolfe Tone, for James Connolly’s devout reception of the Sacraments and recital of the Rosary before death showed that he believed firmly in the divinity of our Divine Lord and honoured His blessed Mother.7



GERMANY’S REACTION
In order to understand the different currents in the German reaction against Judaeo-Masonic influences, we must bear well in mind that the Jewish nation and Freemasonry are working in the camp of Satan for the reign of naturalism, that is, for the disruption of the divine plan for order and the elimination of supernatural life and love from the world. They will hotly deny this or scoff at it, but the objective order of the world is a fact. Further, the leaders of the Jewish nation aim at the inauguration of the reign of the natural messias and the rejection of our divine Lord, in view of their own domination, and they use their undeniable influence in Freemasonry for that purpose. Accordingly, we must be prepared to see these naturalistic forces favour Protestant powers like England and Prussia, in so faras they may be useful instruments in propagating naturalism, and at the same time seek to use them for the ulterior schemes of Judaeo-Masonry. We must be prepared too for reactions when these Protestant countries perceive that what they consider their national interests have been sacrificed on various occasions to Jewish interests and that their national life is in danger of corruption and decay.

We need not be astonished, then, to find, on the one hand, in books like Les Sociétés Secrètes et la Société, by Père Deschamps, S.J., and LesPourquoi de la Guerre Mondiale, by Mgr. Delassus, lengthy accounts of the different ways in which Jewry and Freemasonry favoured the hegemony of Prussia over the German countries, and the substitution of Berlin for Vienna as the cultural centre of the German-speaking peoples. On the other hand, we find in books like that of Dr. Friedrich Wichtl, Weltfreimaurerei Weltrevolutioin, Weltrepublik8 the accusation levelled at Jewry and Freemasonry of having continually worked against the interests of Germany. For example, Wichtl shows that Freemasonry throughout the world turned against Germany during the Great War (1914-1918). In particular he proves that it was through Masonic pressure that Italy entered the war against Austria and Germany. He shows also that the Communist Republic in Munich and the whole Communist movement in Germany and Russia after the Great War was the work of Judaeo-Masonry and Brothers Toller, Levien, Axelrod, Wadler, Ewinger, Lenin and Trotsky, etc., etc.9 On page 286, he gives as his conclusion that “neither we, Germans, nor the visible governments of our enemies are responsible for the terrible slaughter of the great war, but that dark, secret power which we have called World-Masonry, behind which is hidden the invisible ruler of the destinies of all states and peoples, world-Jewry.”

In their books, Père Deschamps, S.J., and Mgr. Delassus stress the fact that the organised naturalistic forces favoured Prussia, in view of utilising that power’s anti-Catholic attitude for the elimination of the spirit of the Mystical Body of Christ from Germany. Wichtl insists upon the fact that in the end, Prussia began to see that she was being sacrificed in her turn for “higher interests.” One is strongly reminded of a remark made to the distinguished historian, Cardinal Pitra, at Vienna in 1889. A highly placed personage, whose name he does not give, said to him: “The Catholic nations must be crushed by the Protestant nations. When this result has been attained, a breath will be sufficient to bring about the disappearance of Protestantism. Thus we shall arrive at state atheism.”10 Hence the points of view defended by these two groups of writers are complementary.11

The German reaction against the corrupting naturalistic influence of Jewry and Freemasonry, instead of inaugurating the return of the whole German nation to the divine plan for order, from which north Germany turned aside in the sixteenth century, has intensified the disorder. The reaction is a purely naturalistic one by which the German race is put in the place of the Mystical Body of Christ, German Blood is substituted for Sanctifying Grace, the life-blood of the Mystical Body, and the instinctive aspirations of the German racebound national soul, as interpreted by the leader of the race, replace the moral law. In the place of the supernatural, supranational Mystical Body of Christ, the Jews also put their race and their nation, thus declaring that order is to come to the world through all nations being moulded by the Jewish nation. Instead of drawing the obvious lesson from the Jewish rejection of Christ and striving to bring Germany to accept His divine plan, the National-Socialist movement has denounced the whole Christian revelation as a superimposed deformation of the German national soul and set up the German race and its national aspirations in the place both of the Mystical Body of Christ and a fortiori of the Jewish race and nation.

Accordingly, National-Socialism substitutes the German race and its exigencies of social organisation for the supernatural, supranational Mystical Body of Christ and its exigencies of social organisation, expressed by the indirect power of the Church, Christian marriage as the union of members of Christ, and Christian education as the formation of members of Christ. One can readily conclude that the National-Socialist reaction against the corroding influence of Jewish naturalism on German national life leads, not only to measures of repression against the Jews but to a dire persecution of the Catholic Church.12

The deified German race has attacked the rival natural deity, the Jewish race, directly, and has proceeded systematically to get rid of it as corrupting the very fount of deity, German blood. It also systematically undermines and seeks to eliminate the supernatural, supranational Catholic Church. Catholics are still allowed to profess at Mass that they will endeavour to live their lives as members of Christ and that they will strive to organise society so as to be aided in so doing. But, from the moment Catholics in Germany and Austria leave the church after Mass, they find society organised on the principle that the highest form of life is German national life and that German blood is higher and nobler than sanctifying grace, the lifeblood of the Mystical Body. National Socialism demands an education which forms the young to regard membership of the German race, not membership of Christ’s Mystical Body, as the highest good. The moral law, of which the sole divinely appointed guardian is the Catholic Church, is replaced by the exigencies of German blood as declared by the leaders of the people. Thus the whole social organisation of German life and the ideals animating it are completely anti-Catholic.

The radical opposition of German racial theories to Catholic teaching is made clear in the instruction to combat them, issued by the Sacred Congregation of Seminaries and Universities to rectors of seminaries and Catholic universities. The document, which was sent on April 13th 1938, runs as follows: “Last year, on Christmas Eve, our august Pontiff and gloriously reigning Pope, in his allocution to the Cardinals and Prelates of the Roman Curia, referred in grave and sorrowful terms to the grievous persecution of the Catholic Church in Germany. It was a cause of the greatest pain to the heart of the Holy Father that, in order to excuse such flagrant injustice, bare-faced calumnies were invented, and most pernicious doctrines, falsely alleged to be scientific, were spread far and wide, with the intention of creating dire confusion in minds and uprooting the true religion. In view of this state of things, the Sacred Congregation of Studies urges Catholic universities and faculties to direct all their resources and efforts to the defence of truth against the inroads of these errors. Accordingly, those who are teaching in these centres of higher studies must mobilise all the means at their command in biology, history, philosophy, apologetics, legal and moral science, and thus forge the weapons with which to refute decisively and expertly the following absolutely untenable and erroneous doctrines:

“1. The human races by their natural and immutable characters are so different, one from another, that the lowest of them is further removed from the highest than it is from the highest species of animal.

“2. The vigour of the race and blood-purity must be preserved and cultivated by every means. Anything that conduces to this end is by the very fact honourable and permissible.

“3. The intellectual and moral qualities of man come mainly from his blood, the source of racial characteristics.

“4. The essential aim of education is to develop the characters of the race and to inflame men’s minds with a burning love of their own race as of the supreme good.

“5. Religionis subject to the law of race and must be adapted to it.

“6. The primary source and supreme rule of the whole juridical order is the racial instinct.

“7. Only the Cosmos or Universe exists, a living being; all things, man included, are only diverse forms, increasing through the ages, of the Universal Living Being.

“8. Individual men exist by the State and for the State: whatever rights they possess come to them exclusively through a concession from the State . . . ”

The following phrases of the Encyclical of Pope Pius XI On the Persecution of the Church in Germany must be read in conjunction with the above propositions, especially with Nos. 5 and 6: “He who takes the race, or the people, or the state, or the form of government, the bearers of the power of the state or other fundamental elements of human society—which in the temporal order of things have an essential and honourable place—out of the system of their earthly valuation, and makes them the ultimate norm of all, even of religious values, and deifies them with an idolatrous worship, perverts and falsifies the order of things created and commanded by God. Such a one is far from true belief in God and a conception of life corresponding to true belief . . . We have done everything to defend the sanctity of a word solemnly pledged, to protect the inviolability of obligations freely undertaken, against theories and practices which, if officially approved, must destroy all confidence and render valueless any word that might also be pledged in the future.”

In The Rulers of Russia, I quoted an author to the effect that the German monetary system was a reaction against the fallacy of making the volume of a country’s money or exchange-medium depend on the amount of gold the government of the country could control.13 It is quite true that the volume of money or exchange-medium ought to be proportioned to the development of a country’s capacity for production, not to the amount of gold that may happen to be in its central bank. But the German financial system, as a whole, is far from being in harmony with the principles of St. Thomas; in conjunction with the racial theory it will tend to the treatment of the human person as a mere individual. The German government controls the creation of bank credit by the Reichsbank, and allows this new bank credit to reach the channels of trade by granting loans of it to whatever businesses it favours. Now, when the government takes over exclusive control and management of the lending business, we have, in practice, socialism or Communism. For a government to create bank credit and lend it to whom it chooses is even more vicious than for private banks to create money as loans. In the case of private banks, arbitrary discrimination is not the primary motive in denying loans. The German government determines what businesses may or may not borrow and thus exercises the power of life and death over them. This power tends to reinforce the treatment of subjects as mere individuals not as persons.

11 Wichtl exaggerates when he asserts (op. cit., p. 186) that, though Frederick the Great was a Freemason, he was never admitted to the real secrets of the Lodges. As the founder of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite (to which, however, additions were made at the end of the 18th century) Frederick was well aware of the inner meaning of Masonic naturalism. In fact the Mason, Bluntschli, claims for him the honour of being the initiator of the revolutionary era, which, he says, should date from the year of Frederick’s accession, namely, 1740, rather than from 1789. The modern state “independent of all theocracy,” that is, owing no submission to the divine law, began with Frederick, he maintains. Cf. Deschamps op. cit., Vol. II, p. 19. (back)

Mexico's poor and revolution, Part II

Max and Steve will present this. Max will present Part I and Steve will present Part II.

From part I:

"Max: Steve, as you know, I selected some references that may be familiar to the readers, including about my namesake, the Emperor Maximillian, and his Empress Carlota. It is about revolution in Mexico. Below that please give us your references and comments, I will ask questions then. Danke.

Steve: Bitte, Max. I will present those later (in Part II) and look forward to your questions."

Max: Steve, please proceed with your comments and then I would like to ask if Mexico is better off now than it was?

Steve: Max, I have toured the museums there in Mexico City (Cuidad de Mexico, D.F.)and the Zocolo and the Palacio Nationale and Castillo Chapultepec and seen the marvelous frescoe on the wall of the National Palace and seen the Palace that Maximillian built and the room where Juarez was imprisoned and talked at length with people on the street and lived on the Paseo de la Reforma and seen the monuments and been to the top of the Latin America Tower. I learned the history of Mexico from the Mexicans in their museums (Mexican Anthropologists are considered the best in the world and are the living authorities on Meso-America). I worked there on a project that was part of increasing middle class Mexican technical ability and made friends there. That was almost thirty years ago. Ten Years before that, in College I knew one of the last (outside of the tribe) of the Nahautl Indians. He was a genius, and a really decent great fellow to know. He explained a lot about the tribe to me, at that time. This was years before the U.S Congress sold out the whole of North America and South America and everything in between with GATT-NAFTA. Things were rotten long before that, though. All in all from the time that the Latin American highway was constructed from Alaska to the tip of Argentina, things have gotten immeasurably worse. There was hope before. There is desperation now. There was eagerness to know other people before. There is hatred now. There was a chance to curb the inordinate crime before. It is utterly rampant now. At the base of the complete destruction of Mexican Society, is the complicity with U.S. Secret operations of the ilk of Operation Condor with Heinz (Henry) Kissinger (German Jew and ultra-Zionist). Add the destruction of the will and opportunity to work of the Mexican people via the slave labor implementation of the Socialist-Neofascist-Capitalist GATT NAFTA, then the destruction of the lower working class has been accomplished. Then you have the same, as the enslavement of the Indians in the mountains in the gold mines of the Castellano "Spaniard" nobility, extended via "social progress" to a vaster group of people.

Max: Grim indeed Steve. Do you remember the last time we did a mutual discussion?

Steve: Yes, Max, I do. It was on Palestine Cry on Friday, March 6, 2009 and at this link:
Very Long Distance Terrorism and it concerned a very nasty capability to destroy people for the sake of the Zionist agenda of world rule.

Max: Does anyone try to make this development out to be for a different reason than we discussed at that time?

Steve: Yes, let me coin a term and say that the "Standardlüge und ausführbar Weltsicht" is that we are doing it to protect "national security" and fight against Red China and keep the reawakened Russian Bear at a distance ...etc. ad nauseam.

Max: Ha Ha, interesting term you made up, the "standard lie and workable world view." What does it mean, though obvious, I think.

Steve: Give the masses something they can hold on to and feel secure with. That is the "workable world view," but it has nothing to do with reality. The U.S., Russia and Red China have been secret allies since at least 1962. Instead describe us as at constant war. The "standard lie" is that necessitates huge developement costs with hidden budgets and goals. The two together allow a standard arms terrorist agenda takeover of Central and South America via Kissinger's Operation Condor and other operations. When their plan calls for it they will declare world government (and "peace and security" and the Gramscian age of Aquarius and who knows what else) and use the weapons to crush - quote "Arab-Muslim fundamentalist resistance." This plan to crush the Muslims has to be stopped before the Zionists are able to carry it out!

Max: Ein herzliches Dankeschön! Steve. Very worrisome, but we need to know.

Steve: Bitte schön, Max, mein Freund.

4. 'In the rainy season,' the woman began, `it is really bad. Water mixes with the shit and when we carry it (on our heads) it drips from the baskets, on to our clothes, our bodies, our faces. When I return home I find it difficult to eat food sometimes. The smell never gets out of my clothes, my hair. But this is our fate. To feed my children I have no option but to do this work.'

Narayanamma began cleaning human excrement at 13. She is now 35. The stench is nauseating, overpowering. First, she sweeps the shit into piles. Then, using two flat pieces of tin, she scoops it up and drops it into a bamboo basket which she carries to a spot where a tractor will arrive to pick it up. No gloves. No water to wash with. She hitches up her sari tightly so that it does not trail on the ground or touch the shit. Still, it is almost impossible to go through a whole day's work without some of it inadvertently getting onto her clothes and person.

After 20-odd years of cleaning toilets. Narayanamma clings to a dignity which is markedly at variance with the work she does. She is dressed neatly, immaculately clean. Jasmine adorns her oiled and well groomed hair.

Narayanamma and 800,000 other toilet cleaners are on the lowest rung of the caste system in India. They are despised by everyone. They experience absolute exclusion from the cradle to the grave.

They are the other face of India; the one that nobody likes to see. It is in sharp contrast to the progressive, technological, we-have-the-bomb-and-are-no longer-the-Third-World face.

Chennai railway, station says it all. It has a hot spot for laptops to download mail, mobile phone chargers, international food counters offering burgers, chocolate mousse and chow mein next to hot dosas and chicken tikka. Yet, a few metres away, sweeper women clean shit in the most primitive manner possible, lifting it out of the railway track with a stick, broom and pieces of tin. Why does this unacceptable, utterly obscene dichotomy exist. Because hardly anyone wants it to change.

DRAVIDIAN LINGUISTICS ASSOCIATION AND INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL OF DRAVIDIAN LINGUISTICS

"Nearly one-fourth of the People of India speak one or another Dravidian language. It is the major language family in the southern States, viz. Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu, and in the Union Territories of Pondicherry and Lakshadweep Islands. Brahui, perhaps the oldest member of the Dravidian Family, is spoken by six hundred thousand people in Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran; 10,000 speak Jankar in Nepal; there are old and new migrants in Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Singapore, Myanmar, Indonesia and Africa. In fact, about 30 million Dravidian speakers are migrants and settled all over the world."

MECCA - 98 Verses

In the Name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful

KAF. HA. YA. AIN. SAD. 2 A recital of thy Lord's mercy
to his servant Zachariah;

When he called upon his Lord with secret calling,

And said: "O Lord, verily my bones are weakened,
and the hoar hairs glisten on my head,

And never, Lord, have I prayed to thee with ill
success.

But now I have fears for my kindred after me; 3
and my wife is barren:

Give me, then, a successor as thy special gift, who
shall be my heir and an heir of the family of Jacob:
and make him, Lord, well pleasing to thee."

"O Zachariah! verily we announce to thee a son, his
name John: That name We have given to none before
him." 4

He said: "O my Lord! how when my wife is barren shall
I have a son, and when I have now reached old age,
failing in my powers?"

He said: So shall it be. Thy Lord hath said, Easy is
this to me, for I created thee aforetime when thou
wast nothing."

He said: "Vouchsafe me, O my Lord! a sign." He said:
"Thy sign shall be that for three nights, though sound
in health, thou speakest not to man."

And he came forth from the sanctuary to his people,
and made signs to them to sing praises morn and even.

We said: "O John! receive the Book with purpose of
heart:" 5 and We bestowed on him wisdom while yet a
child;

And mercifulness from Ourself, and purity; and pious
was he, and duteous to his parents; and not proud,
rebellious.

And peace was on him on the day he was born, and the
day of his death, and shall be on the day when he shall
be raised to life!

And make mention in the Book, of Mary, when she went
apart from her family, eastward, 6

And took a veil to shroud herself from them: 7 and we
sent our spirit 8 to her, and he took before her the
form of a perfect man. 9

She said: "I fly for refuge from thee to the God of
Mercy! If thou fearest Him, begone from me."

He said: "I am only a messenger of thy Lord, that I
may bestow on thee a holy son."

She said: "How shall I have a son, when man hath never
touched me? and I am not unchaste."

He said: "So shall it be. Thy Lord hath said: 'Easy is
this with me;' and we will make him a sign to mankind,
and a mercy from us. For it is a thing decreed."

And she conceived him, 10 and retired with him to a
far-off place.

And the throes came upon her 11 by the trunk of a palm.
She said: "Oh, would that I had died ere this, and been
a thing forgotten, forgotten quite!"

And one cried to her from below her: 12 "Grieve not
thou, thy Lord hath provided a streamlet at thy feet:

And shake the trunk of the palm-tree toward thee: 13
it will drop fresh ripe dates upon thee.

Eat then and drink, and be of cheerful eye: 14
and shouldst thou see a man,

Say, Verily, I have vowed abstinence to the God of
mercy. To no one will I speak this day."

Then came she with the babe to her people, bearing him.
They said, "O Mary! now hast thou done a strange thing!

O sister of Aaron! 15 Thy father was not a man of
wickedness, nor unchaste thy mother."

And she made a sign to them, pointing towards the babe.
They said, "How shall we speak with him who is in the
cradle, an infant?"

It said, 16 "Verily, I am the servant of God; He hath
given me the Book, and He hath made me a prophet;

And He hath made me blessed wherever I may be, and hath
enjoined me prayer and almsgiving so long as I shall
live;

And to be duteous to her that bare me: and he hath not
made me proud, depraved.

And the peace of God was on me the day I was born, and
will be the day I shall die, and the day I shall be
raised to life."

This is Jesus, the son of Mary; this is a statement
of the truth concerning which they doubt.

It beseemeth not God to beget a son. Glory be to Him!
when he decreeth a thing, He only saith to it, Be, and
it Is. 17

And verily, God is my Lord and your Lord; adore Him
then. This is the right way.

But the Sects have fallen to variance among themselves
about Jesus: but woe, because of the assembly of a
great day, to those who believe not!

Make them hear, make them behold the day when they
shall come before us! But the offenders this day are
in a manifest error.

Warn them of the day of sighing when the decree shall
be accomplished, while they are sunk in heedlessness
and while they believe not.

Verily, we will inherit the earth and all who are upon
it. To us shall they be brought back.

Make mention also in the Book of Abraham; for he was a
man of truth, a Prophet. 18

When he said to his Father, "O my Father! why dost
thou worship that which neither seeth nor heareth,
nor profiteth thee aught?

O my Father! verily now hath knowledge come to me which
hath not come to thee. Follow me therefore I will guide
thee into an even path.

O my Father! worship not Satan, for Satan is a rebel
against the God of Mercy.

O my Father! indeed I fear lest a chastisement from the
God of Mercy light upon thee, and thou become Satan's
vassal."

He said, "Castest thou off my Gods, O Abraham? If thou
forbear not, I will surely stone thee. Begone from me
for a length of time."

He said, "Peace be on thee! I will pray my Lord for thy
forgiveness, for he is gracious to me:

But I will separate myself from you, and the gods ye
call on beside God, and on my Lord will I call. Haply,
my prayers to my Lord will not be with ill success."

And when he had separated himself from them and that
which they worshipped beside God, we bestowed on him
Isaac and Jacob, and each of them we made a prophet:

And we bestowed gifts on them in our mercy, and gave
them the lofty tongue of truth." 19

And commemorate Moses in "the Book;" for he was a man
of purity: moreover he was an Apostle, a Prophet:

From the right side of the mountain we called to him,
and caused him to draw nigh to us for secret converse:

And we bestowed on him in our mercy his brother Aaron,
a Prophet.

And commemorate Ismael in "the Book;" for he was true
to his promise, and was an Apostle, a Prophet;

And he enjoined prayer and almsgiving on his people,
and was well pleasing to his Lord.

And commemorate Edris 20 in "the Book;" for he was a
man of truth, a Prophet:

And we uplifted him to a place on high. 21

These are they among the prophets of the posterity of
Adam, and among those whom we bare with Noah, and among
the posterity of Abraham and Israel, and among those
whom we have guided and chosen, to whom God hath shewed
favour. When the signs of the God of Mercy were rehearsed
to them, they bowed them down worshipping and weeping.

But others have come in their place after them: they
have made an end of prayer, and have gone after their
own lusts; and in the end they shall meet with evil:

Save those who turn and believe and do that which is
right, these shall enter the Garden, and in nought
shall they be wronged:

The Garden of Eden, which the God of Mercy hath
promised to his servants, though yet unseen: 22
for his promise shall come to pass:

No vain discourse shall they hear therein, but only
"Peace;" and their food shall be given them at morn
and even:

This is the Paradise which we will make the heritage of
those our servants who fear us.

We 23 come not down from Heaven but by thy Lord's
command. His, whatever is before us and whatever is
behind us, and whatever is between the two! And thy
Lord is not forgetful,

Lord of the Heavens and of the Earth, and of all that
is between them! Worship Him, then, and abide thou
steadfast in his worship. Knowest thou any other of
the same name? 24

Man saith: "What! after I am dead, shall I in the end
be brought forth alive?"

Doth not man bear in mind that we made him at first,
when he was nought?

And I swear by thy Lord, we will surely gather together
them and the Satans: then will we set them on their
knees round Hell:

Then will we take forth from each band those of them
who have been stoutest in rebellion against the God
of Mercy:

Then shall we know right well to whom its burning is
most due:

No one is there of you who shall not go down unto it. 25
This is a settled decree with thy Lord

Then will we deliver those who had the fear of God,
and the wicked will we leave in it on their knees.

And when our clear signs are rehearsed to them, the
infidels say to those who believe: "Which of the two
parties 26 is in the best plight? and which is the
most goodly company?"

But how many generations have we brought to ruin before
them, who surpassed them in riches and in splendour!

Say: As to those who are in error, the God of Mercy
will lengthen out to them a length of days

Until they see that with which they are threatened,
whether it be some present chastisement, or whether it
be "the Hour," and they shall then know which is in the
worse state, and which the more weak in forces:

But God will increase the guidance of the already
guided.

And good works which abide, are in thy Lord's sight
better in respect of guerdon, and better in the issue
than all worldly good.

Hast thou marked him who believeth not in our signs,
and saith, "I shall surely have riches and children
bestowed upon me?"

Hath he mounted up into the secrets of God? Hath he
made a compact with the God of Mercy?

No! we will certainly write down what he saith, and
will lengthen the length of his chastisement:

And we will inherit what he spake of, and he shall
come before us all alone.

They have taken other gods beside God to be their help.
27

But it shall not be. Those gods will disavow their
worship and will become their enemies.

Seest thou not that we send the Satans against the
Infidels to urge them into sin?

Wherefore be not thou in haste with them; 28 for a
small number of days do we number to them.

One day we will gather the God-fearing before the God
of Mercy with honours due: 29

But the sinners will we drive unto Hell, like flocks
driven to the watering.

None shall have power to intercede, save he who hath
received permission at the hands of the God of Mercy.

They say: "The God of Mercy hath gotten offspring."
Now have ye done a monstrous thing!

Almost might the very Heavens be rent thereat, and the
Earth cleave asunder, and the mountains fall down in
fragments,

That they ascribe a son to the God of Mercy, when
it beseemeth not the God of Mercy to beget a son!

Verily there is none in the Heavens and in the Earth
but shall approach the God of Mercy as a servant. He
hath taken note of them, and numbered them with exact
numbering:

And each of them shall come to Him, on the day of
Resurrection, singly:

But love will the God of Mercy vouchsafe to those who
believe and do the things that be right.

Verily we have made this Koran easy and in thine own
tongue, that thou mayest announce glad tidings by it
to the God-fearing, and that thou mayest warn the
contentious by it.

How many generations have we destroyed before them!
Canst thou search out one of them? or canst thou hear a
whisper from them?

Christ is the Crocus of Eternal and New Life

Christ is the Crocus of Eternal and New Life

The Chinese use plants: bamboo, plum blossoms, chrysanthemums and the orchid as symbols which speak about life and virtue.

The significance of the plum blossom runs deep in Chinese history - it signifies feminine beauty and the ideal of chosen seclusion and moral rectitude.
The story is told that Meifei had become the favorite concubine of the Emperor. She surrounded herself with plum blossom trees and at blooming time lingered among them into the night. Meifei was retiring, cultivated and compliant. In time, she lost favor with the Emperor to Yang Gifei who was aggressive, vulgar, vindictive and shrewd.

Now Meifei spent her lonely hours writing about plum blossoms, comparing her fleeting happiness to the short life of the plum petals that soon fell to the ground. At her death, she was buried beneath the flowering plums, and so, the plum tree came to symbolize feminine inner beauty of soul.
In the Song Period, the plum became an enduring emblem of the high minded scholar. Li Bu lived a life of modest retirement on Gushan ("Lone Mountain"). He devoted himself to calligraphy, poetry, planting plum trees and raising cranes. Although he was poor, he did not seek fame. He never married and so the people said the flowering plum was his wife and cranes his children and so, the flowering plum became associated with chosen seclusion and moral pre-eminence.
________________________________________________________________________

Also, note that what is sometimes called the Lotus flower is actually the Crocus and in the ancient world a symbol of the Resurrection (not reincarnation). The crocus we refer to here are the ones growing from earth (not swamps like reincarnation lotuses) especially the snow crocus for its early bloom while snow is on the ground. Jesus Christ is the First born of Mary (the blessed virgin who is the Christmas rose of pure white), He is also the First born from the dead in the flesh – the first one resurrected – who will resurrect us. The snow crocus is deep blue just like the traditional color associated with nativity scenes.

"All Wisdom comes from the LORD...
He poured it forth upon all his creatures." (Sir 1:1,8)
Mary is the spikenard (fragrance of incense before the Lord) of whom was the Christ, Who is the Word Wisdom and Power of the Father in the Unity and Power and Bond of love of the Holy Spirit, may the Holy Trinity especially by the prayer of Mary bless you.

Have a Blessed and Holy Easter Sunday


Mt:28:
1 ¶ And in the end of the sabbath, when it began to dawn towards the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalen and the other Mary, to see the sepulchre.
2 And behold there was a great earthquake. For an angel of the Lord descended from heaven and coming rolled back the stone and sat upon it.
3 And his countenance was as lightning and his raiment as snow.
4 And for fear of him, the guards were struck with terror and became as dead men.
5 And the angel answering, said to the women: Fear not you: for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified.
6 He is not here. For he is risen, as he said. Come, and see the place where the Lord was laid.
7 And going quickly, tell ye his disciples that he is risen. And behold he will go before you into Galilee. There you shall see him. Lo, I have foretold it to you.
8 And they went out quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy, running to tell his disciples.
9 And behold, Jesus met them, saying: All hail. But they came up and took hold of his feet and adored him.
10 Then Jesus said to them: Fear not. Go, tell my brethren that they go into Galilee. There they shall see me.
11 ¶ Who when they were departed, behold, some of the guards came into the city and told the chief priests all things that had been done.
12 And they being assembled together with the ancients, taking counsel, gave a great sum of money to the soldiers,
13 Saying: Say you, His disciples came by night and stole him away when we were asleep.
14 And if the governor shall hear of this, we will persuade him and secure you.
15 So they taking the money, did as they were taught: and this word was spread abroad among the Jews even unto this day.
16 ¶ And the eleven disciples went into Galilee, unto the mountain where Jesus had appointed them.
17 And seeing him they adored: but some doubted.
18 And Jesus coming, spoke to them, saying: All power is given to me in heaven and in earth.
19 Going therefore, teach ye all nations: baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost.
20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you. And behold I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world.

Evening Prayer


FOUNTAIN of light, thyself the light unending, Lord, hear our prayer and, cleansing us from evil, Take away darkness; let thy holy radiance Shine on thy servants.

Now and at the evening which brings the end of labour, Lord, who hast kept us safe in thy protection, Grateful we offer thee our thanks and worship.

Since then the daylight fades into the darkness, let that sun light us which enlightens always choirs of angels in thy holy presence, light never failing.

From all the sins which we this day committed cleanse thou our conscience, Christ our Lord and Saviour;

So in the night time we may rest uninjured, Safe in thy friendship.

Six days we labour, working as thou willest; Then on the seventh resting by thine order, We look to that day which at last shall bring us, rest everlasting.


KINDLY light of glory, fount of light from light, blessed Jesus, coming from the Father in heaven,

2. The bright rays of day, the light of the sun fade; and we at the morning and evening hour confess thee with our hymn.

3. We praise the one God, almighty Father, Son and Holy Spirit the comforter, in the glory of the Trinity.

4. Son of God, worthy to be glorified at all times by pure tongues, giver of life, all ages proclaim thee.


To thee praise, to thee a hymn

is due; to thee glory, God the

Father and Son with the Holy Spirit,

for ever and ever. Amen.
