THE HIDDEN WORLD -The Matrix of the System THE HIDDEN WORLD -The Matrix of the system- Part 1 John H. Baselmans - Oracle Curaçao, 2015 This book is written / compiled by John H Baselmans-Oracle Layout and drawings by John H Baselmans-Oracle Free translation: Amy Mcintosh and Jeffrey Josef With special thanks to those people who have helped me. Copyrights Included all writers who have contributed to this anthology. This reference is to show from the widest possible spectrum, how the matrix of this system works. Personally I do not believe in these rights because as a free man of flesh and blood you own nothing. ISBN 978-1-326-03644-7 THE HIDDEN WORLD -The Matrix of the system- Part 1 - Whether it is the criminal or rapist in the neighborhood - Or the murderer who is still out there. - Or the police, the courts or the judiciary abusing their power. - Or Politicians - Presidents or royal houses who claim to be inviolable. - Or the faiths with their churches and their popes high on a throne. They play the game of the matrix, which is ordered, the game where they are enslaved and know no way out. Don’t be upset, have no feelings of revenge and see them as weak pitiable energies who do not know the way out and still wandering in a suppressed matrix. Fear and revenge are not the tools to show these people differently. Act as a human being, connected to the absolute, don’t allow them affect your life in their search in a choked matrix.

It concerns itself with topics pertaining to the spiritual doctrine and prac- tice of Jesuits, especially United States Jesuits, and communicates the results to the members of the provinces through its publication, STUDIES IN THE SPIRITUALITY OF JESUITS. This is done in the spirit of Vatican II's recommendation that religious institutes recapture the original inspiration of their founders and adapt it to the circumstances of modern times. The Seminar welcomes reactions or comments in regard to the material that it publishes. The Seminar focuses its direct attention on the life and work of the Jesuits of the United States. The issues treated may be common also to Jesuits of other regions, to other priests, religious, and laity, to both men and women. Hence, the journal, while meant especially for American Jesuits, is not exclusively for them. Others who may find it helpful are cordially welcome to make use of it.

    Parte seconda Bibliotheca Collinsiana, seu Catalogus Librorum Antonji Collins Armigeri ordine alphabetico digestus Avvertenza La biblioteca non è solo il luogo della tua memoria, dove conservi quel che hai letto, ma il luogo della memoria universale, dove un giorno, nel momento fata- le, potrai trovare quello che altri hanno letto prima di te. Umberto Eco, La memoria vegetale e altri scritti di bibliografia, Milano, Rovello, 2006 Si propone qui un’edizione del catalogo manoscritto della collezione libra- ria di Anthony Collins,1 la cui prima compilazione egli completò nel 1720.2 Nei nove anni successivi tuttavia Collins ampliò enormemente la sua biblioteca, sin quasi a raddoppiarne il numero delle opere. Annotò i nuovi titoli sulle pagine pari del suo catalogo che aveva accortamente riservato a successive integrazio- ni. Dispose le nuove inserzioni in corrispondenza degli autori già schedati, attento a preservare il più possibile l’ordine alfabetico. Questo tuttavia è talora impreciso e discontinuo.3 Le inesattezze, che ricorrono più frequentemente fra i titoli di inclusione più tarda, devono imputarsi alla difficoltà crescente di annotare nel giusto ordine le ingenti e continue acquisizioni. Sono altresì rico- noscibili abrasioni e cancellature ed in alcuni casi, forse per esigenze di spazio, oppure per sostituire i titoli espunti, i lemmi della prima stesura sono frammez- zati da titoli pubblicati in date successive al 1720.4 In appendice al catalogo, due liste confuse di titoli, per la più parte anonimi, si svolgono l’una nelle pagi- ne dispari e l’altra in quelle pari del volume.5 Agli anonimi seguono sparsi altri 1 Sono molto grato a Francesca Gallori e Barbara Maria Graf per aver contribuito alla revi- sione della mia trascrizione con dedizione e generosità.

After finishing his studies he went to Spain, in the service of the Duke of Osuna, whom he accompanied to Sicily. There he entered the Society of Jesus at Palermo, on 7 September 1613, studied at Rome, taught philosophy and theology at Gratz, Austria, and for several years traveled through the various countries of Europe, as preceptor of the Prince of Eggenberg.

  • Trajectories of Croatian Jesuit Historiography Brnardic, Teodora Shek
    From Acceptance to Animosity: Trajectories of Croatian Jesuit Historiography Brnardic, Teodora Shek Teodora Shek Brnardić [email protected] Last modified: March 2018 Introduction The emergence of a Croatian historiography of the Society of Jesus took place in the often virulently anti-Jesuit and anti-clerical atmosphere that was prevalent in Croatia in the second half of the nineteenth and first half of the twentieth century. This period represented a historical crisis for the Jesuit order in Croatia, one that provoked controversies that were largely absent in the pre-suppression period, unlike in many other countries where such disputes had existed ever since the sixteenth century. In 1932, Miroslav Vanino, S.J. (1879–1965) launched a scholarly journal entitled Vrela i prinosi: Zbornik za povijest isusovačkog reda u hrvatskim krajevima (Sources and contributions: Collected papers on the history of the Jesuit order in the Croatian lands),1 which marked a turning point in the creation of a Croatian Jesuit historiography. In doing so, Vanino intended to revise the prevailing view of the pre-suppression Jesuits, who were often accused of behaving in an “anti-national” way. This latter view had become widespread among the educated Croatian elite, particularly during the Austro-Hungarian fin-de-siècle. Vanino’s journal accordingly sought to correct this politically biased interpretation of the Jesuits’ role in Croatian history with articles written by both Jesuit and non-Jesuit contributors.2 The journal would provide the foundation for a source-based, critical history of the Society of Jesus in the Croatian lands and of its relations with the Croats.

    the mirt al-quds in context 19 CHAPTER TWO THE MIRĀT ALQUDS IN CONTEXT 2.1. A BIBLIOGRAPHICAL SURVEY OF THE MIRĀT ALQUDS AND ITS RECEPTION IN EUROPEAN LITERATURE And when father Manoel Pinheiro was here with father Jerome Xavier, in the city of Agra, the latter presented to the King a treatise in the Persian language, on the miracles, life & doctrine of Christ our Lord, which this same King had asked of him and much desired.1 It was with these words that in 1605—only three years after the text had been submitted to Akbar—Father Jerome’s achievement was remarked upon for the first time in print. The announcement was included by Fernão Guerreiro, S.J. (d. 1617), in his first Relaçam, an account of the Jesuits’ work in various regions of Asia, Africa, and South America (fig. 2.1).2 This is a credit to the Jesuits’ ability to put into print information concerning their religious activities in both Europe and the overseas territories in which they had established themselves. This, however, would have been of little use if the members of the Society of Jesus had not organized themselves into a remarkable network that encouraged the fluid communication crucial for the accomplish- ment of their ambitions. Each year, the superior of every Jesuit mission in Asia, Africa, and the Americas was required to send his respective Provincial a com- plete report of his mission’s activities.3 The Provincial of Goa would send the annuae to Rome on different Fig. 2.1.

  • Book Reviews ∵
    journal of jesuit studies 4 (2017) 99-183 brill.com/jjs Book Reviews ∵ Thomas Banchoff and José Casanova, eds. The Jesuits and Globalization: Historical Legacies and Contemporary Challenges. Washington, dc: Georgetown University Press, 2016. Pp. viii + 299. Pb, $32.95. This volume of essays is the outcome of a three-year project hosted by the Berkley Center for Religion, Peace, and World Affairs at Georgetown University which involved workshops held in Washington, Oxford, and Florence and cul- minated in a conference held in Rome (December 2014). The central question addressed by the participants was whether or not the Jesuit “way of proceeding […] hold[s] lessons for an increasingly multipolar and interconnected world” (vii). Although no fewer than seven out of the thirteen chapters were authored by Jesuits, the presence amongst them of such distinguished scholars as John O’Malley, M. Antoni Üçerler, Daniel Madigan, David Hollenbach, and Francis Clooney as well as of significant historians of the Society such as Aliocha Mal- davsky, John McGreevy, and Sabina Pavone together with that of the leading sociologist of religion, José Casanova, ensure that the outcome is more than the sum of its parts. Banchoff and Casanova make it clear at the outset: “We aim not to offer a global history of the Jesuits or a linear narrative of globaliza- tion but instead to examine the Jesuits through the prism of globalization and globalization through the prism of the Jesuits” (2). Accordingly, the volume is divided into two, more or less equal sections: “Historical Perspectives” and “Contemporary Challenges.” In his sparklingly incisive account of the first Jesuit encounters with Japan and China, M.

  • American Jesuits and the World: How an Embattled Religious Order Made
    INTRODUCTION I do not like the late Resurrection of the Jesuits. They have a Gen- eral, now in Russia, in correspondence with the Jesuits in the U.S. who are more numerous than every body knows. Shall we not have Swarms of them here? . If ever any Congregation of Men could merit, eternal Perdition on Earth and in Hell . it is this Company of Loiola. Our System however of Religious Liberty must afford them an Asylum. But if they do not put the Purity of our Elections to a severe Tryal, it will be a Wonder. — John AdAms to thomAs Jefferson, mAy 6, 1816 I dislike, with you, their restoration; because it marks a retrograde step from light toward darkness. —­ThomAs Jefferson to John AdAms, August 1, 1816 This Society has been a greater Calamity to Mankind than the French Revolution or Napoleon’s Despotism or Ideology. It has obstructed the Progress of Reformation and the Improvement of the human mind in society much longer and more fatally. — John AdAms to thomAs Jefferson, november 4, 1816 I The suppression of the Jesuits (or Society of Jesus) in 1773 by Pope Clement XIV does not appear in US history textbooks. It is a puzzling event, with Catholic monarchs pressuring the pope to abolish a religious order perceived as excessively loyal to the papacy. Forty- one years later another pope, Pius VII, reversed course and restored the Jesuits, provoking an anxious exchange between two provincial Enlightenment intellectuals (and former US presidents). John Adams was sufficiently exercised about the 1 Introduction Jesuit restoration to compose two essays on the topic, lamenting the “surprise, deception and violence” employed by the Society.1 American Jesuits and the World begins where Adams and Thomas Jefferson end.

  • Resisting National Sentiment: Friction Between Irish and English Jesuits in the Old Society
    journal of jesuit studies 6 (2019) 598-626 brill.com/jjs Resisting National Sentiment: Friction between Irish and English Jesuits in the Old Society Thomas M. McCoog, S.J. Loyola University Maryland [email protected] Abstract Pedro de Ribadeneyra, first official biographer of Ignatius of Loyola, showered praise upon him and his companions for abandoning immoderate sentiment “for particular lands or places” in their quest for “the glory of God and the salvation of their neigh- bors.” Superior General Goswin Nickel praised a Society conceived in Spain, born in France, approved in Italy, and propagated in Germany and elsewhere. Out of diversity Ignatius had forged unity. Ribadeneyra prayed that nothing would ever threaten this union. His prayers were not heard: the Society’s internal unity was often endangered by national sentiment despite congregational attempts to curtail and eliminate it. This article does not purport to be an exhaustive study of localism versus international- ism—although such a study is needed—but an investigation of relations between Irish and English Jesuits principally in the seventeenth century. Individual Jesuits did in fact cooperate, but there were limits. A proposal in 1652 that the independent Irish mission become part of the English mission was that limit. Keywords Irish Jesuits – English Jesuits – John Young – national sentiment – Muzio Vitelleschi – Gian Paolo Oliva – general congregations 1 Introduction: the Internationalism of the Society of Jesus In the spring of 1539, Ignatius of Loyola (c.1491–1556; in office, 1541–56) and his companions deliberated their future. Should they attempt to retain some union, a corporate identity, despite their being sent in different directions on © Thomas M.

  • Bibliography on the History of the Society of Jesus 20201
    Archivum Historicum Societatis Iesu vol. lxxxviii, fasc. 178 (2020-II) Bibliography on the History of the Society of Jesus 20201 Wenceslao Soto Artuñedo SJ A collaboration between Archivum Romanum Societatis Iesu, Institute for Advanced Jesuit Studies (Boston College) and Jesuitica Project (KU Leuven) The “Bibliography on the History of the Society of Jesus” was first produced for AHSI by László Polgár SJ, spanning fifty issues of the journal, between 1952 and 2001. The Bibliography was resumed in 2006 by Paul Begheyn SJ, who was its author until 2018. In 2019, it entered a new phase incorporating for the first time three distinct and interconnected outlets for exploring the bibliographical riches of Jesuit history: -Bibliography on the History of the Society of Jesus, by Wenceslao Soto Artuñedo SJ, in print and online annually, Archivum Historicum Societatis Iesu: http://www.sjweb.info/arsi/en/publications/ahsi/ bibliography/ -Jesuit Online Bibliography, a free, searchable collection of Jesuit Studies Scholarship through the Portal to Jesuit Studies: https:// jesuitonlinebibliography.bc.edu/ -Jesuitica, a collaborative initiative from KU Leuven and the Jesuit Region ELC to facilitate academic research on the Maurits Sabbe Library’s Jesuitica book collections: https://www.jesuitica.be/ As in previous years, in order to provide continuity with Fr Polgár’s work, the Bibliography incorporates titles dated from 2000. Entries are divided into three sections: I. The entire Society; II. Countries; III. Persons. An Index of authors concludes the Bibliography. Some further features of the Bibliography may be noted: 1. In each section, titles are listed in chronological order of publication and, within each year, in alphabetical order of author (works without named authors or editors are placed after these, by alphabetical order of title).
