Counsels of Religion COUNSELS OF RELIGION Author: Imam Al-Haddad Number of Pages: 280 pages Published Date: 24 Jan 2011 Publisher: Fons Vitae, US Publication Country: Kentucky, United States Language: English ISBN: 9781891785405 DOWNLOAD: COUNSELS OF RELIGION These three matters, in themselves often innocent and not forbidden to the devout Christian , may yet, even when no kind of sin is involved, hold back the soul from its true aim and vocation, and delay it from becoming entirely conformed to the will of God. It is, therefore, the object of the three counsels of perfection to free the soul from these hindrances. The soul may indeed be saved and heaven attained without following the counsels; but that end will be reached more easily and with greater certainty , if the counsels be accepted and the soul does not wholly confine herself to doing that which is definitely commanded. On the other hand, there are, no doubt, individual cases in which it may be actually necessary for a person , owing to particular circumstances, to follow one or more of the counsels, and one may easily conceive a case in which the adoption of the religious life might seem, humanly speaking, the only way in which a particular soul could be saved. Such cases, however, are always of an exceptional character. As there are three great hindrances to the higher life, so also the counsels are three, one to oppose each. The love of riches is opposed by the counsel of poverty; the pleasures of the flesh, even the lawful pleasures of holy matrimony, are excluded by the counsel of chastity; while the desire for worldly power and honour is met by the counsel of holy obedience. Abstinence from unlawful indulgence in any of these directions is forbidden to all Christians as a matter of precept. As parts of taqwa are discussed such outward endeavors as unity among Muslims, the avoidance of division and discord, and the duty to enjoin good and forbid evil. Taqwa also comprises inward things such as contentment with God and His decrees, avoiding distraction and illusory hopes, fear of God, the remembrance of death, avoiding hoping for forgiveness without working for it, while using predestination as a justification.

Almost in all the traditional religions, religious life has played a vital role. By the work of the Holy Spirit, We have various forms of consecrated life. Consecrated life does not mean that one has to completely separate oneself from the secular world, ignore the society and be indifferent to the problems of the people. The contemplatives spend their life mostly in prayer, whereas the consecrated persons of apostolic congregations spend their time in doing various apostolates, without ignoring their prayer life, which is an important element of every religious. They dedicate their whole life for the service of the people of God through various ministries and apostolates. Community life or fraternal communion is also a special characteristic of the consecrated life. Whether it be contemplative or apostolic way of religious life, it is founded on the three evangelical counsels: chastity, poverty and obedience. These evangelical counsels are not inventions of those who founded the Religious Orders and 2. Share Flipboard Email. By ThoughtCo. There are the riches which make life easy and pleasant, there are the pleasures of the flesh which appeal to the appetites, and, lastly, there are honours and positions of authority which delight the self-love of the individual. These three matters, in themselves often innocent and not forbidden to the devout Christian, may yet, even when no kind of sin is involved, hold back the soul from its true aim and vocation, and delay it from becoming entirely conformed to the will of God. It is, therefore, the object of the three counsels of perfection to free the soul from these hindrances.

  • "Flemish" Hats Or, Why Are You Wearing a Lampshade? by BRIDGET WALKER
    Intro to Late Period "Flemish" Hats Or, Why Are You Wearing a Lampshade? BY BRIDGET WALKER An Allegory of Autumn by Lucas Van Valkenborch Grietje Pietersdr Codde by Adriaen (1535-1597) Thomasz. Key, 1586 Where Are We Again? This is the coast of modern day Belgium and The Netherlands, with the east coast of England included for scale. According to Fynes Moryson, an Englishman traveling through the area in the 1590s, the cities of Bruges and Ghent are in Flanders, the city of Antwerp belongs to the Dutchy of the Brabant, and the city of Amsterdam is in South Holland. However, he explains, Ghent and Bruges were the major trading centers in the early 1500s. Consequently, foreigners often refer to the entire area as "Flemish". Antwerp is approximately fifty miles from Bruges and a hundred miles from Amsterdam. Hairstyles The Cook by PieterAertsen, 1559 Market Scene by Pieter Aertsen Upper class women rarely have their portraits painted without their headdresses. Luckily, Antwerp's many genre paintings can give us a clue. The hair is put up in what is most likely a form of hair taping. In the example on the left, the braids might be simply wrapped around the head. However, the woman on the right has her braids too far back for that. They must be sewn or pinned on. The hair at the front is occasionally padded in rolls out over the temples, but is much more likely to remain close to the head. At the end of the 1600s, when the French and English often dressed the hair over the forehead, the ladies of the Netherlands continued to pull their hair back smoothly.

Transactions of the Burgon Society, 5 (2005), pages 36–41 The Question of Ecclesiastical Influences on French Academic Dress by Yves Mausen The talk given at the Burgon Society’s Congregation in October 2005 on which this paper is based was intended as a tribute to Professor Bruno Neveu, one of the few French scholars to take an interest in academic dress. He had been made a Fellow of the Society honoris causa only shortly before his untimely death in 2004. I had the privilege of inheriting the archives on his favourite topic which he had collected during his lifetime, and I found amongst the documents an additional folder containing material for a history of ecclesiastical dress. My initial idea was to connect this field of research with my own interest in medieval ceremonial and thus try to establish whether the church gown had influenced the university robe in France, as one might be led to think from the appearance of the latter.

  • Cornette, Carla. Colonial Legacies
    http://www.gendersexualityitaly.com g/s/i is an annual peer-reviewed journal which publishes research on gendered identities and the ways they intersect with and produce Italian politics, culture, and society by way of a variety of cultural productions, discourses, and practices spanning historical, social, and geopolitical boundaries. Title: Colonial Legacies in Family-Making and Family-Breaking: Carla Macoggi’s Memoirs as Semi-Autobiography Journal Issue: gender/sexuality/italy, 7 (2020) Author: Carla Cornette, Pennsylvania State University Publication date: February 2021 Publication info: gender/sexuality/italy, “Continuing Discussions” Permalink: https://www.gendersexualityitaly.com/13-colonial-legacies-family-making-and-family-breaking-carla- macoggis-memoirs Author Bio: Carla Cornette is an Assistant Teaching Professor of Italian at Pennsylvania State University and the faculty co-leader of Penn State’s study abroad program in Reggio Calabria. She holds a Ph.D. in Italian from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a minor in African Cultural Studies and Gender and Women’s Studies. Her dissertation project (2018) is entitled “Postcolonial Pathology in the Works of Italian Postcolonial Writers Carla Macoggi, Ubah Cristina Ali Farah, and Igiaba Scego” and interrogates the notion of depression in Italian postcolonial literature as a politically and socially induced phenomenon. She is currently preparing a monograph based on this study which argues that melancholic psycho-affective sequelae that manifest in Black diaspora women literary figures are the natural and expected consequence to continual subjection to multiple axes of oppression including race, gender, geography, and class, inequalities which have their origins in Italy’s colonial history. Abstract: Kkeywa: Storia di una bimba meticcia (2011) and La nemesi della rossa (2012) constitute the sequential memoirs of Carla Macoggi, Ethiopian-Italian author and attorney.

  • Dress Like a Pilgrim a Procurement Guide by Mayflower Guard
    DRESS LIKE A PILGRIM A Procurement Guide SEPTEMBER 29, 2018 THE MAYFLOWER GUARD General Society of Mayflower Descendants Dress Like a Pilgrim A Procurement Guide By Mayflower Guard As James Baker, noted Pilgrim historian, points out in his recent article in the Mayflower Journal 1 there is a major image problem associated with what clothing and apparel Pilgrims wore. The image of black clothing, buckles and blunderbusses persist in the public mind. To overcome this misperception and to assist in this effort to change public perceptions, the donning of appropriate garments representing what the Pilgrims actually wore should be a major objective for the commemoration of the 1 Baker, James W., Pilgrim Images III, Mayflower Journal Vol. 2, No. 1 [2017], pp 7-19 1 400th anniversary of the arrival of the Mayflower. We the Mayflower descendants need to Dress Like a Pilgrim and wear Pilgrim Appropriate Apparel (PAA). So, what did Pilgrim men and women wear? Fabrics In 17th Century England and in the Netherlands, there were two basic fabrics that were used for clothing, wool and linen. There was combination of wool and linen know has fustian corduroy that was also used, however finding this fabric today is almost impossible. Cotton while available was very rare and very expensive in the early 17th century. Colors We know that the Pilgrims wore a variety of colors in their clothing from probate records where the color of various clothing items were mentioned including the colors violet, blue, green.1,2 The color red was also listed. However, the reds that were used in the early 17th century were more of a brick red and a matter red which is a little more orange in nature than modern reds.

All Rights Reserved. www.kimiko1.com Research and hand drawn sketches created by Kimiko Small, March-April 2006, except where noted. This was originally developed for Margo Anderson's Historical Costume Patterns, and has been modified and updated for use in the Collegium Caidis class on April 10, 2010. Shirts The Low-Necked Shirt The low-necked shirt sketch is based on early Tudor men’s shirts seen in various images. Its style is fading by the early 1530s, although it can be seen here and there. The body is finely pleated into the neckline that would be held by embroidery. For more info on creating this type of shirt, please go to the following yahoogroup: Pleatwork Embroidery ( Smocking) http://groups.yahoo.com/group/pleatwork/ The High-Necked Shirt This shirt is based on an image of Henry VIII in 1536. As can be seen in the detail image of Henry, the shoulder line at the left shows a short shoulder area (about half the shoulder length) with a V where the sleeves are attached. The collar area is most likely finely pleated with decorative stitching to hold the pleats in place ( Posavad, 18), but a collar would be easier for most people to create. The small frill or ruffle, from which the later ruff is derived, tops the shirt collar. This ruffle is optional, as some images do not show a ruffle. The collar is open at center front and is usually closed with 2 shirt strings.
