Smith Follow this and additional works at: https://digitalcommons.discipleshistory.org/christianplea VOL. II JUNE, 1928 No. 10 In Praise of Childhood In praise of little Children I will say God first made man, then found a better way For woman, but His third way was the best. Of all things created, the loveliest And most divine, are Children. Nothing here Can be to us more gracious or more dear. - And though when God said all His works were good There was no rosy flower of babyhood, 'Twas said of Children in a later day That none could enter Heaven save. such as they. The earth which feels the flowering of a' thorn, Was glad, 0 little Child, when thou wert born. The earth which thrills when skylark scales the blue, Soared up itself to God's own Heaven in you; And Heaven, which loves to lean down and to glass, Its beauty in each dewdrop on the grass- Heaven laughed to find your face so pure and fair, And left, 0 little Child, its reflex there. - William, Canton. ;"'~"_~_;:::;_;P::;;_p;;;;_;;::;o;_;:;_;p::;;_p;;;;_p;;;;_~_;:::;_;p::;;_p;;;;_;;::;o;_;:;_;p::;;_p;;;;_;;::;o;_~_;:::;_~_p;;;;_;;::;o;_;:::;_;p::;;_p;;;;_;;::;o;_;:;_;p::;;_p;;;;_;;::;o;_~_;:::;_;p::;;_;;::;o;_~_;:::;_;p::;;_p;;;;_;;::;o;_;:;_;p::;;_p! ~ +__.._ .._ ... ._ .._.1_ ••_1._ ••_ ••_ ••_111_ ••_ ••_ ••_ ••_ ••-"-111 __ '-"'-"-- ••-'1' an executive and woman of power and I I vision.

  • 1. the Love of God
    1. The Love of God One may be a master of all the Scriptures And competent to teach the Vedanta; One may be a great ruler Living in a many-splendoured mansion; One may be a valiant hero Who has vanquished his enemies; Or one may be a pitiable Victim of poverty and privation. If he has no devotion in him His life is devoid of meaning. A servant who is filled with love of the Lord Is more to be adored than the overlord of the world. "BHAKTI is service to Hrishikesa," it has been said. Service to God has been described as Bhakti. The heart of the devotee flows with love of the Lord through constant remembrance and recitation of His name. Out of this stream of love, devotion emerges. One who is nourished by the nectar of Bhakti will have no desire for anything else. To be unaffected by joy or sorrow, gain or loss, praise or blame, to remain steadfast and unwavering in faith, is the hall-mark of true devotion. Affection, attachment, desire are natural qualities in man. When these qualities are directed towards God and when one is continuously engaged in good deeds, these qualities acquire purity and sacredness. Then a man becomes not only a great soul but can become divine. State of mind of a devotee The devotee is ever conscious that the universe is a manifestation of the Divine and is permeated by the Divine. His life is based on the recognition of the immanence of God in everything. This state of mind is called "Prema Advaitam" (unity in Love.) Through this love the devotee experiences his oneness with the Divine.

    NO DEVOTION PERMANENCE Als die allererste No Devotion Single vor genau einem Jahr aus dem Nichts kam - mit einer offiziellen Weltpremiere in Daniel P. Carters BBC Radio 1 Rock Show, der den Track gleich zweimal hintereinander spielte - war die Welt sehr überrascht, denn damit hatte keiner gerechnet. Geoff Rickly, der aus Brooklyn stammende Musiker und ehemalige Thursday Frontmann, war seit der Thursday-Pause zwar immer musikalisch aktiv, zuletzt mit seiner politischen und satirischen Punkrock Band United Nations, erweckte jedoch nie den Anschein, dass er gerade an einem weiteren Projekt tüftelte - und schon gar nicht, dass er mit dem musikalischen Gerüst von Lostprophets zusammenarbeitete, die in England vor einiger Zeit noch zu den erfolgreichsten Rockbands des letzten Jahrzehnts gehörten. Doch noch weniger glaubte man daran, dass es für die Jungs ein Leben nach Lostprophets geben würde. Für Stuart Richardson, Richard Jamie Oliver, Mike Lewis, Lee Gaze und Luke Johnson war es eine persönliche Notwendigkeit gemeinsam aus der Öffentlichkeit herauszutreten. Mit der Veröffentlichung ihrer ersten Single „Stay“ bewiesen No Devotion jedoch schnell, dass diese Zusammenarbeit genau so unverzichtbar wie umfassend war - sie landeten mit „Stay“ sofort in den offiziellen UK Charts und bildeten somit die Grundlage für eine weitere Single, zwei England Tourneen (inkl. einer Supporttour für Ricklys alten Freund Gerard Way von My Chemical Romance), ein stürmisches New York City Live-Debüt und das Versprechen, das ein Debütalbum in der Mache ist. Dieser Teil nahm allerdings mehr Zeit in Anspruch, als sich die Band zunächst erhoffte. Das Ergebnis heißt „Permanence“ - ein Album so anspruchsvoll und ausladend, wie es der Name vermuten lässt.
