Humility is something we should constantly pray for, yet never thank God that we have. - Martin DeHaan

“Be of good courage.*”

Such is declared by the God’s sovereignty

Along His leadership as the supreme Almighty Deity ---

Bowing to Him with humility

Submitting myself to His authority

Keeps me strengthened against my own debility.

Back to base after 40 days of non stop travel just for this cat !!!

It was a scorching Summer day when we embarked on a journey to explore the exotic high altitude cold desert. The idea of venturing into the Hanle, surrounded by vast stretches of golden green marshes , filled us with both excitement and trepidation and more exciting was the rarest cat being roaming around the valley from past few months . As we stepped out of car, a cold wave hit us like a wall. The intense sunrays beat down mercilessly, making me appreciate the importance of sunscreen, but when a cat as rare as gems is sitting in a beautiful setting who cares ?

As we began our scan through the desert, every step felt like an accomplishment. The handle mud from marshes beneath Ourfeet shifted with each stride, reminding me that nature is constantly changing and evolving. The silence was deafening as no one was there and best part No other photographers; there were no sounds except for the occasional rustle of wind against Ourears.

The desert seemed barren at first glance, but upon closer inspection, signs of life emerged. Tiny lizards scurried across the shining roads, birds feeding in plenty before harsh winters , leaving behind delicate footprints in their wake. Grass from marshes stood tall and proud amidst the harsh conditions, their vibrant flowers providing a burst of colour against the monotonous landscape.

As evening approached, we witnessed one of nature's most breathtaking spectacles – a sunset over the Halle Monastery. Shades of orange and pink painted the sky as if an artist had taken his brush to create this masterpiece. It was a moment that reminded me how insignificant we are in comparison to Mother Nature's grandeur.

Our visit to this exotic desert left an indelible mark on Our soul. It taught me humility and appreciation for our planet's diverse landscapes. It made us realise that sometimes stepping out of our comfort zones can lead us to discover hidden treasures we never knew existed.

In conclusion, exploring this exotic desert was not just an adventure in past 12 years ; it was an awakening Project , a dream to get this cat showcasing its interesting moustache , that’s so big , beautiful eyes , as till now we have seen pallas cat from far distance and hardly few people from India had capture those details in face , legs and overall body of pallas cat – a reminder that there is beauty even in desolation if we take time to observe and appreciate it fully.

Someone once said that "if you want to test a man's character, give him power."

 

It's interesting that this phrase uses the word "character". Also, the word "power" could mean a lot of things. Nevertheless, I believe that as long as we practice humility, we could possibly get some sort of a "benefit of a doubt" even though we tend to get carried away with what we have and we could control (sometimes).

On this date, July 5, four hundred & seventy four years ago, the scholar, lawyer and Lord Chancellor of England , Sir Thomas More (1478-1535), spent his last day on Earth in a cell at the Tower of London. Condemned to death by King Henry VIII, he spent his final hours praying. His crime? His refusal to accept the Act of Supremacy, making Henry VIII Head of the Church of England.

 

A committed Catholic, he defied the King and chose God over man - his committment to his faith; which never once wavered - as can be witnessed through the beauty of the prayers he wrote as prisoner at the Tower.

 

Four hundred years after his death - his murder- in 1935, this great man was finally canonized.

 

In late 1999, Stephen B Whatley was commissioned to create 30 paintings for the Tower of London; a mammoth and exhilerating undertaking that he fulfilled in 2000.

 

Amongst the depictions of the Tower's history that he created through his vibrant Expressionism, was a new interpretation of a portrait of the late statesman Sir Thomas More. The famous portrait for which More sat in 1512 by Hans Holbein the Younger is now in the Frick Collection in New York, USA; while the almost identical portrait, painted the same year, by an 'unknown artist' belongs to Britain's National Portrait Gallery.

 

Stephen B Whatley travelled to Montecute House, Somerset, where this portrait and much of the Tudor Collection belonging to the National Portrait Gallery hangs- and was moved to be able to make charcoal drawings and graphite studies ( some of which can be seen on this site) , inches away from the surface of this painting, made in More's lifetime. The artist felt such a privilege to be able to capture the essence, to feel close to the subject.

 

The drawings then became the inspiration for a portrait in oils which along with the rest of the series hangs in The Tower of London. The public can see all the paintings reproduced permanently throughout the public Walkway that leads to the Tower.

 

The paintings have aroused interest in limited edition prints; and in April 2009, the Roman Catholic Church of St Thomas More, in Eastcote, Middlesex, UK acquired a special print of Stephen B Whatley's portrait of Thomas More - which they asked him to come to unveil and talk at their special concert and celebration of the Feast Day of Thomas More; staged last Sunday, June 27, 2009 (at which this shot was captured by Parish Secretary Helen Howley)

 

"...this was one of the most humbling honours for me - quite overwhelming - as on arrival I found that the concert was to be staged before the altar in the contemporary church. My print, framed by the church and veiled was set just in front of the Crucifix. I had decided to speak from my heart, no notes - and to the beautiful strains of Bach, Mozart and Schuman - my eyes were fixed on the Cross, in prayer - for strength.

 

The Parish Priest, Fr John Deehan paid a very warm tribute to me and my work in a touchingly detailed introduction; before I was invited to come forward and step up to perform the unveiling. Standing there the congregation seemed more vast - and there was an audible intake of breath as the green shroud was removed; and the dedicated print revealed- strikingly mounted and framed. It truly seemed to glow.

 

Then from the lecturn, I spoke a little about the art world, my survival in it; and that my journey has been one with God - not some huge marketing machine. That my successes have come through deep prayer; alongside a lot of hard work.

 

Touching on that I had, like most, have suffered in my life, I mentioned that I had often remarked that "Art has saved my life" there , 'in the shadow' of this great Crucifix, I realised that more importantly that it is my deep faith in Christ that has saved my life. Amongst the sea of faces I could see moist eyes glinting and with a quite rapturous applause, my head was hung very low - in humility."

Thinking these images of Krystal Smith are much too good to be deleted.

 

I often see this tree and have photographed it in various lighting conditions and this one is by far the most meaningful to me. The shape of the tree is likened to a cross. The numerous little snags on it are reminders of sacrifice, humility,endurance and peace.

It was pride that changed angels into devils; it is humility that makes men as angels.

The air is cleansed once more.

“These are the few ways we can practice humility:

To speak as little as possible of one's self.

To mind one's own business.

Not to want to manage other people's affairs.

To avoid curiosity.

To accept contradictions and correction cheerfully.

To pass over the mistakes of others.

To accept insults and injuries.

To accept being slighted, forgotten and disliked.

To be kind and gentle even under provocation.

Never to stand on one's dignity.

To choose always the hardest.”

[Arrogance causes harm, humility benefits. If you are a tengu, you make mistakes, if you re humble, you get help] - Confucius' Book of Sutras

 

-----

 

Tengu, in Japanese folklore, is a type of mischievous supernatural being, sometimes considered the reincarnated spirit of one who was proud and arrogant in life. Tengu are renowned swordsmen and are said to have taught the military arts to the Minamoto Yoshitsune. They live in trees in mountainous areas. A group of tengu is headed by a chief, who is depicted with a prominent nose, angry and threatening expression, dressed in red robes and carrying a feather fan. He is served by a group of retainers called koppa tengu (“leaflet” tengu) who act as his messengers. In popular art they are shown as smaller winged creatures with long red noses or beaklike mouths.

 

Mt Takao has long been associated with the Tengu - since about the 14th century - through its ties with the practice of mountain asceticism. Tengu - which in an early stage of their history were considered disruptive entities against Buddism - had the reputation of teasing particulalry ascetic monks whe were in search for illumination. Later developments saw the Tengu as keeper of Mt. Takao and guardians agains any evil doers. Even to this day, you can see Tengu iconography all over Mt. Takao.

White orchids represent reverence and humility. Humility is an undervalued characteristic.

 

"The Value Of Humility In Leadership. ... Substantial research shows that humility predicts effective leadership. Humility is associated with minimizing status differences, listening to subordinates, soliciting input, admitting mistakes and being willing to change course when a plan seems not to work". [Forbes, 7/18]

I see strength and weakness at once. I see a strong human-made structure that constrains even nature's strongest winds, but is filled with cracks and imperfections. At the same time, I bear witness to the the undeserving warning and caution that we humans now surround ourselves with (even outdoors). Meanwhile, nature perseveres; it grows where it wants, without regard for the wishes of man.

Enjoy in LARGE and smile at least one tag line on right. Have many Blessings!

Pope: Augustine Is Model of Humility

Says His Conversion Lasted Until He Died

 

VATICAN CITY, FEB. 26, 2008 (Zenit.org).- In his final reflection on St. Augustine, Benedict XVI spoke of the saint's interior conversion, calling it "one of the greatest" in Christian history.

 

The Pope affirmed this today during the general audience given in Paul VI Hall. He recalled how his trip last year to pay homage to the mortal remains of Augustine was meant to "demonstrate the admiration and reverence of the entire Catholic Church toward St. Augustine, and my own personal devotion and recognition of a figure with whom I feel I have close ties to due to the part he has played in my theological life, in my life as a priest and a pastor."

 

Recalling Augustine's own retelling of his conversion in the "Confessions," the Holy Father said that the process is best "described as a journey that remains a true example for each one of us." It was a journey that "continued with humility until the end of his life."

 

"We can state that all the stages of his life -- and we can easily distinguish three phases -- together make up a single long conversion," the Pontiff explained.

 

Truth seeking

 

Benedict XVI characterized the first phase as a "gradual approach to Christianity," since Augustine was a "passionate seeker of the truth."

 

He explained: "Philosophy, and especially Platonic philosophy, led him closer to Christ by revealing to him the existence of the Logos, or creative reason. The books of the philosophers showed him the existence of 'reason' from which the whole world is derived, but did not tell him how to reach this Logos, which seemed so inaccessible.

 

"It was only through reading the letters of St. Paul, in the faith of the Catholic Church, that he came to a fuller understanding. […] His eyes fell on the passage of the Letter to the Romans, in which the apostle urges the abandonment of the pleasures of the flesh in favor of Christ. He understood that those words were specifically meant for him. They came from God, through the Apostle, and showed him what he had to do in that moment."

 

Augustine thus began to seek God, the Pope explained, "the great and inaccessible."

 

"His faith in Christ made him understand that God, seemingly so distant, was in truth not distant at all. In fact he has come near us, becoming one of us," the Holy Father said. "In this sense his faith in Christ allowed Augustine to accomplish his long search for truth. Only a God who made himself 'touchable,' one of us, was a God to whom one could pray, for whom and with whom one could live."

 

Mercy

 

Benedict XVI said a last step, or "third conversion" in the journey, "led [Augustine] to ask God for forgiveness every day of his life."

 

The Pope explained: "At first he thought that once christened, in a life in communion with Christ, in the sacraments, and in the celebration of the Eucharist, he would attain a life as proposed in the Sermon on the Mount, which is one of perfection given through baptism and confirmed in the Eucharist.

 

"In the latter period of his life he understood that what he had said in his first homilies on the Sermon on the Mount -- that we as Christians permanently live this ideal life -- was a mistake. Only Christ himself realizes truly and completely the Sermon on the Mount. We always need to be cleansed by Christ, who washes our feet, and be renewed by him.

 

"We need a permanent conversion. Up to the end we need to demonstrate a humility that acknowledges that we are sinners on a journey, until the Lord gives us his hand and leads us to eternal life. It is with this attitude of humility that Augustine lived out his final days until his death."

 

A model

 

The Holy Father said that Augustine, once "converted to Christ, who is truth and love," became a model for every human being, "for all of us in search of God."

 

"Today, as then," the Pontiff said, "mankind needs to know and to live this fundamental reality: God is love and meeting him is the only answer to the fears of the human heart.

 

"In a beautiful text St. Augustine defines prayer as an expression of desire, and affirms that God answers by moving our hearts closer to him. For our part we should purify our desires and our hopes in order to receive God's gentleness."

 

"In fact," the Holy Father concluded, "this alone -- opening ourselves up to others -- can save us."

Can you understand being alone so long

you would go out in the middle of the night

so you could feel something down there

In 2006, the local electorate blessed Dallas County, Texas with a new District Attorney (DA) who has been exemplifying extremely different philosophies like: “Society wins when justice is done, even if the Government fails to convict and lengthy imprison in most cases”.

 

What leadership qualities resulted in Texas’ old Dallas County DA’s Office causing Dallas County to be the “Send Innocent People to Prison Capital of the USA”. Is it worth studying those procedures, goals, attitudes, techniques to encourage or discourage their continued use else where?

 

Question: Is the criminal justice system dysfunctional and merely about the sneaker attorney winning?

 

Question: How do we start drastically altering such a screwed up trophy system? Does innocents being imprisoned, embarrass no one anymore? Why? Because there is so much of it going on?

Palm Sunday of the Lord’s Passion

 

Reflections on Holy Scripture at the Procession of Palms:

Matthew 21:1-11

At the Mass:

Isaiah 50:4-7

Responsorial Psalm:

Psalm 22:8-9, 17-18, 19-20, 23-24

Reading II:

Philippians 2:6-11

The Gospel:

Matthew 26:14—27:66 or 27:11-54

 

Today we begin the most sacred week of the year—Holy Week.

 

It all begins with the Lord's triumphant entry into Jerusalem, seated astride a donkey, with the crowd shouting "Hosanna!" and it ends with the most astounding event in history, the God-man Jesus, rising from a borrowed tomb. He rises with the light shining from the wounds of His horrible passion and death.

 

As our Savior rode toward His great confrontation with the powers of evil, the words of today's first reading were very possibly in His mind:

 

I have set my face like flint, knowing that I will not be put to shame.

(Isaiah 50:7)

 

No, the shame is ours that our sins and those of the millions before us have brought Him to this hour. This is the week for us to bow our heads and hearts in sorrow and compassion as we put aside our daily distractions and focus on the events of the dying and rising of our loving Redeemer. We need to reflect prayerfully on the ancient Christian hymn that forms our second reading for this Mass:

 

He emptied himself, taking the form of a slave . . .

he humbled himself, becoming obedient to death,

even death on a cross. (see Philippians 2:7-8)

 

No wonder every knee must bow at the mention of His name! The early Church fought long and hard to establish the doctrine for all time that it was both God and man that took up that cross for our redemption.

 

So what is our cross?

 

It's the cross of responsibilities, the cross of sickness, the cross of loneliness and failure. We gain so much strength to carry those crosses when we take time this week to journey with Jesus to Calvary.

 

The Church is a master of drama in the liturgies of this week. Through the use of the celebrant and two readers for the Passion this week, and in the voices of the congregation, we all become part of the action. Most of us feel embarrassed to cry "Crucify Him" with the palm branches still in our hands. We feel like hypocrites. Yet it was our sins which brought Him to Calvary.

 

The Passion Narrative of Matthew is a reminder of the ugliness of sin—Christ's betrayal by Judas, the denial of Peter, the hearings before Caiaphas and Pilate—the awful scourging by the Roman soldiers, the thorny crown jammed upon His weary head, the whip cutting slashes into His flesh, the blood running down his shoulders and back, the cursing by the crowd, the nails tearing through His hands, the thud of the cross into the ground. As He hangs on the Cross, He cries, "I thirst!" How that cry echoes down the centuries as a reminder of His search for our love!

 

The shock of Palm Sunday's liturgy compresses nearly two thousand years into this present moment. We have no place to hide.

 

We need to suspend all other activities, quiet our busy-ness, and focus on the events of this week—the local penance services, the Stations of the Cross, the Thursday night adoration and the Good Friday veneration of the Cross.

 

All this will prepare us for the coming out of darkness into the new fire, the new light, the new saving water of the Easter Vigil—and the Resurrection.

Giovanni di Paolo preferred to emphasize religious sentiment and decorative patterning rather than the illusion of depth and three-dimensional form. In this work, the Virgin, seated on the ground to indicate her humility, cradles her child against a backdrop of strawberries and wildflowers and a sheltering screen of fruit trees. In the distance stretches a landscape of cultivated fields, stony roads, and fortified towns. Still in its original frame and in a near-perfect state of preservation, this panel exemplifies the lyrical quality of Sienese painting.

"Consequently, it followed logically that telling lies could not be sins. The chaplain had mastered, in a moment of divine intuition, the handy technique of protective rationalisation, and he was exhilarated by his discovery. It was miraculous. It was almost no trick at all, he saw, to turn vice into virtue and slander into truth, impotence into abstinence, arrogance into humility, plunder into philanthropy, thievery into honour, blasphemy into wisdom, brutality into patriotism, and sadism into justice. Anybody could do it; it required no brains at all. It merely required no character.”

It takes cheerful resignation

Heart and humility

That's all it takes

A cheerful person told me

Nobody's harder on me than me

How could they be

And, nobody's harder on you than you

Betsy's blue

She says-"Tell me something good!"

You know I'd help her out if I only could

Oh, but sometimes the light

Can be so hard to find

At least the moon at the window--

The thieves left that behind

People don't know how to love

They taste it and toss it

Turn it off and on

Like a bathtub faucet

Oh sometimes the light

Can be so hard to find--

At least the moon at the window--

The thieves left that behind

I wish her heart

I know these battles

Deep in the dark

When the spooks of memories rattle

Ghosts of the future

Phantoms of the past

Rattle, rattle, rattle

In the spoon and the glass

Is it possible to learn

How to care and yet not care--

Since love has two faces

Hope and despair

And pleasure always turns to fear

I find--

At least the moon at the window--

The thieves left that behind

At least they left the moon

Behind the blind

Moon at the window
