Our falling hindereth him not to love us. Love was his meaning. Thou art enough to me. May 8, 1353 “It is enough, my Lord, enough indeed, My strength is in Thy might, Thy might alone.” St Columba Alone with none but Thee, O Lord, I journey on my way. What need I fear, if Thou art near, O King of night and day? More safe am I within Thine hand Than if an host did round me stand. St Bede Christ is the morning star who, when the night of this world is past, brings to his saints the promise of life and opens everlasting day. Alleluia. Durham Cathedral, Bede died in 735 a.d. A Prayer by Bishop W. J. Carey O Holy Spirit of God, come into my heart and fill me. I open the windows of my soul to let Thee in. I surrender my life to Thee. Come and possess me, fill me with light and truth. I offer to Thee the one thing I really possess: my capacity for being filled by Thee. Of myself I am an empty vessel. Fill me so that I may live the life of the Spirit: the life of Truth and Goodness; the life of Beauty and Love; the life of Wisdom and Strength.

  • The Nous: a Globe of Faces1
    THE NOUS: A GLOBE OF FACES1 Theodore Sabo, North-West University, South Africa ([email protected]) Abstract: Plotinus inherited the concept of the Nous from the Middle Platonists and ultimately Plato. It was for him both the Demiurge and the abode of the Forms, and his attempts at describing it, often through the use of arresting metaphors, betray substantial eloquence. None of these metaphors is more unusual than that of the globe of faces which is evoked in the sixth Ennead and which is found to possess a notable corollary in the prophet Ezekiel’s vision of the four living creatures. Plotinus’ metaphor reveals that, as in the case of Ezekiel, he was probably granted such a vision, and indeed his encounters with the Nous were not phenomena he considered lightly. Defining the Nous Plotinus’ Nous was a uniquely living entity of which there is a parallel in the Hebrew prophet Ezekiel. The concept of the Nous originated with Anaxagoras. 2 Although Empedocles’ Sphere was similarly a mind,3 Anaxagoras’ idea would win the day, and it would be lavished with much attention by the Middle and Neoplatonists. For Xenocrates the Nous was the supreme God, but for the Middle Platonists it was often the second hypostasis after the One.4 Plotinus, who likewise made the Nous his second hypostasis, equated it with the Demiurge of Plato’s Timaeus.5 He followed Antiochus of Ascalon rather than Plato in regarding it as not only the Demiurge but the Paradigm, the abode of the Forms.6 1 I would like to thank Mark Edwards, Eyjólfur Emilsson, and Svetla Slaveva-Griffin for their help with this article.

  • What Julian Saw: the Embodied Showings and the Items for Private Devotion
    religions Article What Julian Saw: The Embodied Showings and the Items for Private Devotion Juliana Dresvina History Faculty, University of Oxford, 41-47 George St, Oxford OX1 2BE, UK; [email protected] Received: 28 February 2019; Accepted: 29 March 2019; Published: 2 April 2019 Abstract: The article traces potential visual sources of Julian of Norwich’s (1343–after 1416) Revelations or Showings, suggesting that many of them come from familiar everyday devotional objects such as Psalters, Books of Hours, or rosary beads. It attempts to approach Julian’s text from the perspective of neuromedievalism, combining more familiar textual analysis with some recent findings in clinical psychology and neuroscience. By doing so, the essay emphasizes the embodied nature of Julian’s visions and devotions as opposed to the more apophatic approach expected from a mystic. Keywords: revelations; mysticism; ekphrasis; neuromedievalism; neuroarthistory; psychohistory; Julian of Norwich; visions; sleep paralysis; psalters; books of hours; rosary beads 1. Introduction This paper has a very simple thesis to illustrate: that a lot, if not most of theology, found in the writings of Julian of Norwich (1343–after 1416)—a celebrated mystic and the first English female author known by name—comes from familiar, close-to-home objects and images. Images are such an integral aspect of our existence that the famous neuroscientist Rodolfo Llinás, and many after him, claimed that our brain is about making images (Llinás and Paré 1991; Damasio 2010, pp. 63–88). However, such complicated private visual experiences as dream-visions or mystical revelations are insufficient to synthesise knowledge per se, particularly if understood as aimed at a broader community.

  • Being Attentive to Silence
    BEING ATTENTIVE TO SILENCE Meredith Secomb ILENCE. STILLNESS. These are not commonly found in the often reckless S rush of daily life. Even for those who are necessarily still in body— confined by reasons of ill health, disability or age—the pressure of thought surges on, carrying with it a tumult of emotions. Silence and stillness are even less present for those whose tasks in the world engage them in seemingly never-ending demands. Here, too often, in W. B. Yeats’s words, ‘things fall apart; the centre cannot hold’.1 The consequence may be a suffering which can be ignored for a time—often an extended time— but which ultimately reveals its presence in the searing loneliness of the night, over coffee with a neighbour, in a visit to the pastor or priest, or in the doctor’s clinic or psychologist’s suite. It has been a privilege to work with the people who have come to me in my capacity as a psychologist. For them things had fallen apart and the centre no longer held. On their journey to healing and transformation they learnt a number of skills that are pertinent to the issue I address here. My clients learnt to attend to their interiority. In other words, they learnt to pay attention to the felt sense of themselves in at least some of the various modes of functioning that occur in daily life. They then learnt to present that sense to God in prayer. They also learnt to value silence. Psychological practices of mindfulness became seamlessly interwoven 2 with what the Christian tradition terms contemplative prayer.

  • Books Recommended for Ongoing Formation
    BOOKS RECOMMENDED FOR ONGOING FORMATION **indicates that the book is available for purchase from the Lay Carmelite Office **A Pattern for Live, The Rule of St. Albert and the Carmelite Laity, by Patrick McMahon, O.Carm. In this book the author presents a powerful defense of the suitability of Albert’s Rule (pattern for life_ for all Carmelites — laity and religious alike. In both setting an historical context for the Rule and providing a practical commentary for the laity, Fr. Patrick demonstrates that it is adherence to the Rule that defines a Carmelite and gives each of us our Carmelite identity. The Ascent to Joy: John of the Cross, Selected Spiritual Writings, (Marc Foley, OCD, editor) New City Press, 2002 In this introduction and anthology, the author leads the reader step-by-step into the very heart of the spiritual way taught by John of the Cross. He provides substantial introductions and notes, but the core of the teaching is developed in carefully selected excerpts from John’s writings, presented in a systematic order, so the text functions both as a primer of John’s teaching and an introduction to the contemplative way. (The) Ascent of Mt. Carmel: Reflections, St. John of the Cross (Marc Foley, OCD) ICS Publications, 2013 The author weaves together insights from psychology, theology, and great literature to make The Ascent of Mt. Carmel both understandable and relevant to daily life. Through his explanations and examples, Fr. Foley “translates” spiritual issues of John’s day to fit the experience of 21st century pilgrims. **At the Fountain of Elijah, by Wilfrid McGreal, O.Carm., Orbis Press Overview of Carmelite Spirituality Awakening Your Soul to the Presence of God, by Kilian Healy, O.Carm., Sophia Institute Press (about living in God’s presence) **Book of the First Monks, by Felip Ribot, O.Carm.

  • The Imagery of the Interior Castle and Its Implications
    Ephemerides Carmeliticae 21 (1970/1-2) 198-218 THE IMAGERY OF THE INTERIOR CASTLE AND ITS IMPLICATIONS Reverend. Dr. E.W.T. Dicken: Born in 1919. Studied modern languages at the University of Besancon (France) and at Exeter College, Oxford. After tour of military duty returned to Oxford to study theology, graduating in New Testament specialization in 1949. Ordained to the priesthood of the Church of England after continued studies at Cuddesdon College, Oxford, and worked as a parish priest in Nottinghamshire until 1965, when he became Warden of Lenton Hall, University of Nottingham, where he is also Senior Lecturer in Christian Ethics and Spiritual Theology. Became a Doctor of Divinity of the University of Oxford in 1964 for researches into the spiritual doctrine of St. Teresa of Jesus and St. John of the Cross. Publications to date include: Living with God (Oxford, 1957); The Crucible of Love (London, 1963). Loving on principle (London, 1969). It is, I believe, a tenable thesis that neither the works of St Teresa of Jesus nor those of St John of the Cross can be adequa­ tely appreciated unless they are studied in close conjunction the one with the other *. If this is so, then it may be hoped that, in this year in which St Teresa has been solemnly proclaimed a Doctor of the Universal Church, a study which aims to bring her writings into still closer relationship with those of one to whom an equal honour was accorded over forty years ago will be found neither graceless nor inopportune. There can be no student of Spanish Carmelite spirituality who does not profoundly regret the paucity of reliable informa­ tion available to us concerning the exchanges which took place i The case is argued at length in E.

    18 Chapter 1 Julian in Context The contemporary rediscovery of the fourteenth‐century anchoress, Julian of Norwich, as an important mystical writer, theological thinker, and spiritual teacher has inevitably led to a great deal of speculation about her origins and life. Whatever the long‐term value of Julian’s teach- ings, no mystical or theological writing exists on some ideal plane removed from the historical circumstances in which it arose.1 Julian’s possible background and her historical context affect our con- temporary interpretation of what she wrote. Without some awareness of her context, it is all too easy to make Julian an honorary member of our own times or to pick and choose the aspects of her writings that appeal to us or to make overall judgments about her without seeking to honor what she herself intended to communicate in her writings. ­Who was Julian? Who Julian was, her social background, her education, her life experience prior to becoming an anchoress, when she became an anchoress – even where she was born – are all matters of speculation. The name “Julian” by which she is known is also likely to have been an adopted one. It was quite common for medieval anchorites and anchoresses to assume the name of the church to which their anchorhold (or cell) was physically attached. In COPYRIGHTEDthe case of Julian of Norwich, her MATERIALanchorhold was next to the parish church of St Julian Timberhill in Norwich which survives in reconstructed form to this day. The church has been known by that name since the tenth century but it is not absolutely clear to which St Julian it is dedicated.

  • 3: Julian of Norwich
    7/7/2016 Essentials of Mysticism - Evelyn Underhill 3: Julian of Norwich ALL that we know directly of Julian of Norwich — the most attractive, if not the greatest of the English 183 mystics — comes to us from her book, The Revelations of Divine Love, in which she has set down her spiritual experiences and meditations. Like her contemporaries, Walter Hilton and the author of The Cloud of Unknowing, she lives only in her vision and her thought. Her external circumstances are almost unknown to us, but some of these can be recovered, or at least deduced, from the study of contemporary history and art; a source of information too often neglected by those who specialize in religious literature, yet without which that literature can never wholly be understood. Julian, who was born about 1342, in the reign of Edward III, grew up among the surroundings and influences natural to a deeply religious East Anglian gentlewoman at the close of the Middle Ages. Though she speaks of herself as " unlettered," which perhaps means unable to write, she certainly received considerable education, including some Latin, before her Revelations were composed. Her known connection with the Benedictine convent of Carrow, near Norwich, in whose gift was the anchorage to which she retired, suggests that she may have been educated by the nuns; and perhaps made her first religious profession at this house, which was in her time the principal "young ladies' school" of the Norwich diocese, and a favourite retreat of those adopting the religious life. During her most impressionable years she must have seen in 184 their freshness some of the greatest creations of Gothic art, for in Norfolk both architecture and painting had been carried to the highest pitch of excellence by the beginning of the fourteenth century.
