  • VOWS in the SECULAR ORDER of DISCALCED CARMELITES Fr
    VOWS IN THE SECULAR ORDER OF DISCALCED CARMELITES Fr. Michael Buckley, OCD The moment we hear the word “Vows” we think automatically of religious. The “vows of religion” is a phrase that comes immediately to our minds: vows and religion are always associated in our thinking. Indeed, for religious men and women, vows of poverty, chastity and obedience are of the very essence of their vocation. Regularly vows are made after novitiate, and again a few years later; the only difference is between simple (temporary) and solemn (perpetual) vows. So it is a new concept when we encounter vows in the context of a Secular Order as we do in Carmel. Yet, the exclusive association of vows with religious people is not warranted. A glance at the Canon Law of the Church will illustrate this. The Canon Law speaks about vows in numbers 1191-98, just before a chapter on oaths. Our Secular legislation makes no reference to the Canon Law when it speaks about vows. That is not necessarily a defect or lacuna in our Constitutions. Our legislation is in accord with sacred canons, but it is essential to be familiar with these. Let me summarize the chapter. It begins with a precise definition: “A vow is a deliberate and free promise made to God concerning a possible and better good which must be fulfilled by reason of the virtue of religion.” Then it goes on to distinguish vows which are a) public, i.e., accepted in the name of the church, b) solemn or simple, c) personal or real, d) how vows cease or are dispensed, etc.

The Lviv-Volyn Coal Basin remains being the main fuel-pow- er base of the western regions of the Ukraine up to now. At the same time, against the background of the planned removing of mines from service and reduction of explored reserves of coal, the necessity arises to solve the question of the basin's development in the future. Its up-to-date expansion is also connected with the development of the coal seams trom the deep horizons. We have studied the commercial coal potential and character- istic properties of morphology of the coal seams of the deep horizons of the Lviv-Volyn Coal Basin, including the Kovel coal-bearing area. To the deep horizons we attribute the parts of the section of the Carboniferous thickness that enclose the coal seams located at depths below the working coal seams. They are of Tournaisian-Serpukhovian age and belong to the lower (bog-marine) coal-bearing formation. The purpose of investigations was to determine the most perspective commercial coal seams of the deep horizons of the basin and their characteristic properties. It was noted that within the limits of the workable deep horizons of the basin the coal seams 3 υ0 and υ6 are widely distributed. We have used a complex of investigations based on the formation analysis: morphological analysis of coal seams,

  • Religious Consecration and the Solemnity of the Vow in Thomas Aquinas’S Works
    Mirator 19:1 (2018) 32 Towards a Sacralization of Religious Vows? Religious Consecration and the Solemnity of the Vow in Thomas Aquinas’s Works AGNÈS DESMAZIÈRES homas Aquinas most likely took the Dominican cloth in 1244, in Naples, against the will of This parents who had destined him to the well-established Benedictine convent of the Monte Cassino, where he had been schooled. Kidnapped by his brothers, he spent two years imprisoned in the family castles of Montesangiovanni and Roccasecca, before being released and joining again the Dominicans. The various biographers of Thomas Aquinas granted importance to this episode, relating it with lively and epic details. Marika Räsänen has skillfully demonstrated how the episode of Thomas’s change of clothing was crucial in the construction of the ‘Dominican identity’ in a time when the Order of Preachers was struggling recruiting new candidates.1 Yet, I would highlight in this article a complementary issue: when Thomas Aquinas entered the Dominican Order, the doctrine and rites of incorporation to a religious order were still in a phase of elaboration. Thomas’s doctrine itself evolved significant- ly, moving from a juridical conception of religious vows, characteristic of his early writings, to a sacral one, inspired by a return to patristic and monastic traditions, in his later works. In the first centuries after Christ, the monk accomplished his integration to the monastery through a simple change of clothing, which intervened after a period of probation, lasting from a few days to a full year. At first, the commitment to a monastic rule was only tacit.

At the moment of the Cru- cifixion all the Apostles had fled save one, John, who stood at the foot of the Cross with the Mother of God. Everyone else had abandoned Christ, only a small group of women stood at a short distance from the Cross, and when He had died, they came to anoint His Body which Joseph of Arimathea had sought from Pilate, unafraid of being recog- nised as a disciple, because in life and in death love and faithfulness had conquered.

The mountains and hills that must be made low are pride, arrogance, insolence. Where there is pride, where there is insolence, where there is arrogance, the Lord cannot enter because that heart is full of pride, of insolence, of arrogance. For this reason, we must allay this pride.
