He took one of each and crushed them; he compounded them together, and declared, “Let this be something that will combine the beauty of all.” He spoke, and lo, the Diamond was born pure as a dewdrop and invincible in hardness. Yet when its ray is resolved in the spectrum, it displays all the colors of the gems from which it was made. So too goes the diamond story of Andhra Loyola College, as its multi-dimensional facets are reflected through the prism of education. ALC has added yet another fabulous feather to its hat of illustrious and noble history, by becoming a ‘DIAMOND COLLEGE’ on 9th December, 2013. In the last sixty years of its existence, ALC has left its indelible mark of excellence and brilliance in every sphere of human life, be it in education, social service, leadership or any other. Keeping in mind its ardent desire to attend to the multi-dimensional nature of the human person, with its vision to impart higher education with integral formation which involves academic excellence, spiritual growth, social commitment, and value-based leadership, it has formed thousands of its proud and loyal students into men and women for others who have showcased their ‘Loyola legacy’ qualitatively and qualitatively in the areas they have settled in, contributing immensely to the growth and development of our nation. Hence, at this juncture, it is fitting and appropriate that we pause for a while and pay our respectful tribute filled with a sense of awe and gratitude to all the Jesuit Fathers, teaching and non-teaching staff members whose contribution through their commitment, hard-work, and inspiring life-style and work ethic played a vital role for ALC in climbing those gigantic heights in the field of education that it boasts of today on the occasion of its diamond jubilee. Any celebration has its beginning and its conclusion, too. Inauguration of the Diamond Jubilee celebrations was held on 6th March, 2013 and the Valedictory function of the same was held on 8th March, 2014. But is that all there is to a celebration? What is the point of celebrations of historical milestones such as a diamond jubilee or any other? As Reinhart Koselleck puts it, celebration of such historical milestones provides a present moment for the intersection of the Space of the Past and Horizon of the Future. It is the space of the past now made present in the celebration and thus it serves as the point of departure for a new decision or action. The horizon of future, on the other hand, is the unfolding of the array of projects that one can now undertake, of paths that one can now begin to explore on the basis of this space of experience. It is the future made present. Therefore, such celebrations give institutions an opportunity, the much required time and space to take stock of its achievements, strengths, failures and weaknesses, 7 based on which they would be empowered to launch new projects and enterprises, while rectifying its Achilles’ heel. T.S.Eliot in his famous Four Quartets says, “In my beginning is my end…..in my end is my beginning.” The Valedictory function of the Diamond Jubilee of ALC is only a formal conclusion of the celebration of its historical landmark. But in another sense, this Valedictory function is an invitation to newer beginnings, harder challenges, greater horizons, farther frontiers, nobler enterprises, and higher horizons. W. Edwin Powell Hubble in his The Realm of Nebulae says, “The history of astronomy is a history of receding horizons.” We can never reach a horizon that beckons us. Just the moment we think we have reached the horizon, it seems to evade us, receding far from us into farther distances inviting us to catch up with it, in the process pushing us forward to discover newer dimension and scale greater heights. As W.Eugene Smith puts it, “Never have I found the limits of the photographic potential. Every horizon, upon being reached, reveals another beckoning in the distance. Always I am on the threshold.” It is like climbing mountain ranges. You will often climb a peak only to see another higher ridge beyond, with higher peaks, inviting and challenging us to dare climb. Yes, the celebration of the Diamond Jubilee of Andhra Loyola College is an invitation to dare climb higher peaks, to break open newer frontiers, and reach larger, brighter, and newer horizons in the field of education for the betterment of humanity. As an earnest and fitting expression of all of our aspirations, ambitions, and wishes for our diamond college, I would like to conclude with the following excerpt from a favourite hymn of the Society of Jesus, capturing the true spirit of our society and that of St.Ignatius Loyola, its founder, and in a special way, that of our College: MAGIS – always seeking the greater. Growing stronger and stronger As fighting lasts longer And purer and purer To make heaven surer With crosses and trials And many denials - we’ll fight! But to die ever loyal and true to our King on high. Ignatius, lead us on - till we die! Ignatius, lead us in the ongoing march of ALC in its quest of perfection in education and conscientization, in the process reaching newer, brighter, and greater horizons! Rev.Fr.P.Anil Kumar, SJ Editor-in-Chief 8 9 10 11 MESSAGE OF THE SUPERIOR GENERAL OF THE SOCIETY OF JESUS The foundation of Andhra Loyola College, six significant decades ago, was truly an event of landmark importance, not only in the emergence and growth of Andhra Jesuit Region/Province, but also in the history of higher education in Andhra Pradesh. The College was regarded as a veritable boon to parents who till then had to send their children all the way to Loyola College Chennai and St. Joseph’s College, Triruchirapalli, in order to give their children the Jesuit education they desired. It is gratifying to note that the establishment of the College was largely due to the special initiative and endeavour of Bishop Mummadi Ignatius, Bishop Dominic Grassi and the generous people of Andhra Pradesh who came forward in strength to mobilize resources and donate land to have their dream of a Jesuit College in the state become a reality. In the course of its sixty years of steady expansion, the College has crossed many milestones like acquiring autonomy, inaugurating postgraduate courses, admitting girl students, earning commendable ratings in the accreditation process and its early designation as a College with Potential for Excellence. The last award is a salutary reminder that excellence is not a finished product but an ever growing process where there is always room for more, a concept crystallized and encapsulated in the inspirational term of St. Ignatius - Magisl The fact that several thousands of students have benefitted by the College and that the illustrious list of alumni includes many who had played a notable part in public life and civil service is an implicit tribute to the quality of education being imparted by the College. The enduring values in which Jesuit education is anchored would always be of a transformative potential for all aspects of personal life and for the wellbeing of society at large. Now, more than ever is there need of large-hearted compassion, coupled with a depth of commitment to contribute to the evolution of a harmonious, jestice-oriented and ecologically sensitive and caring world. If the alumni of Andhra Loyola College are able to exert their wholesome impact in this direction in their own spheres of influence, they will do their alma mater proud. I wish and pray for God’s abundant blessings on the staff and students, alumni, parents, benefactors and well-wishers and the management of Andhra Loyola College and the readers of the special Diamond Jubilee Edition of the Loyolite! 12 13 14 Message 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 Andhra Loyola College (Autonomous)::Vijayawada Diamond Jubilee Year College Day Report - 2013-2014 8th March 2014 i.exe Respected Chief Guest, Sri M.M.Pallam Raju, Hon’ble Minister for Human Resources Development, and Distinguished Guest, Sri J.D.Seelam, Minister of State (Revenue) Ministry of Finance, Government of India, the Guests of Honour, Prof.V.Venkaiah, Hon’ble Vice Chancellor, Krishna University, Rev.Fr.P.Antony SJ, Provincial, Andhra Jesuit Province, Sri B.Prasada Rao, IPS, Director General of Police, Govt.

  • The Vocation of the Missionary
    E. Teodore Bachmann : Te Vocation of the Missionary | 209 Te Vocation of the Missionary E. Teodore Bachmann Pacifc Lutheran Teological Seminary Berkeley, California For one who has not himself had the distinction of serving overseas as a foreign missionary, and who has only had the privilege of living for a time amid the fruits of other men’s labors in the land from which the frst missionaries were sent forth, it may be presumptive to say something about the vocation of the missionary. When, however, I had accepted the invitation of our extremely able and persuasive president, Dr. R. Pierce Beaver, in which he laid stress on placing the missionary’s calling in its appropriate theological context, I knew I was in for a rough assignment. At times this presentation may appear theoretical. If it does, I hope it will not appear artifcial. For you, too, may recall the character in Tackeray’s Yellow Plush Papers who accepted an assignment on “Chinese Philosophy.” Indeed, he did so unfinchingly, simply blending into an essay two articles from the encyclopedia: the one on “China,” and the other on “Philosophy.” In approaching the vocation of the missionary, I was assured by discerning friends that not much had been written on the subject in recent years. Tere was, of course, plenty of material on recruitment; also excellent statements on the characteristics of the missionary. Te importance of vital Christian experience was everywhere recognized. Tere were glowing accounts of the missionary vocation of the whole Church, and of the duty of each believer to be a missionary.
