Templo de la Purísima Concepción

 

Construido bajo una plataforma prehispánica, los franciscanos edificaron este templo y convento que por su arquitectura del siglo XVI se ha convertido en uno de los edificios más importantes y visitados. La portada de estilo plateresco tiene un arco enmarcado por delgadas columnas que se levantan entre guías vegetales y flores. La puerta está rodeada por un alfiz con la forma de una cordón franciscano, diseño que también puedes observar en la ventana del coro. En el interior apreciarás una bóveda de cañón corrido, probablemente repuesta en el siglo XVIII. A un costado del templo se encuentra la portería del convento que en un tiempo fue la Capilla Abierta. El viejo claustro muestra los restos de una arquitectura sencilla y de pinturas murales.

Temple of the Immaculate Conception

 

Built on a platform Hispanic, the Franciscans built this temple and convent by sixteenth-century architecture has become one of the most important buildings and visited. The cover has a Plateresque arch framed by thin columns that stand between plants and flowers guide. The door is surrounded by a rectangular frame in the shape of a Franciscan cord, design can also see in the window of the choir. Inside you'll appreciate a barrel vault, probably answer in the eighteenth century. Next to the temple is the goal of the convent that once was the Open Chapel. The old cloister shows the remains of a simple architecture and murals.

What Is Theosophy?

The Secrets of The Universe Laid Bare By The Accumulated Wisdom Of The Ages

 

The question “What is Theosophy?” must have risen to the lips of some thousands of persons during the last three or four years, if the world is anything like what it used to be, and it is only reasonable to suppose that in nearly as many instances as the question has been put the answer has not been forthcoming, or, at least, that no satisfactory solution has been proffered. From the vastness of the subject and its utter newness to Western minds this state of things is not very much to be wondered at, but apart from that, the extreme difficulty of giving anything approaching an intelligible explanation of the word to minds permeated with WEstern ideas and moulded by Western thought and associations is so great as to render the task well nigh hopeless. Theosophy was unknown to Western intelligence – except in the form of the wildest and most improbable narratives, and those of the most fragmentary character – till some 14 years since, when Madame H. P. Blavatsky, a Russian lady who had spent the greater part of her previous life picking up strange stores of still strangers knowledge among the speculative peoples of the far East, settled in New York, and commenced the diffusion of her ideas in regard to her occult knowledge. Her most active disciple was a Colonel Olcott, in conjunction with whom the Theosophical Society was formed for objects stated below. A singular fact came out in reference to this very singular organization not very long ago; it appears that Madame Blavatsky, the president-founder, is practically the Theosophical Society one and indivisible, for while the members may be expelled to any extent, the president-founder cannot be removed, the consequence being that notwithstanding the possible loss of every single member, the society can never suffer annihilation as long as Madame Blavatsky lives, the wishes of the rest of the organization to the contrary. Theosophy has apparently produced the first and only society which it is impossible to suppress or abolish. Madame Blavatsky is now located in London, where her teachings have been met with more amusement than reverence, but the president-founder appears proof against any amount of that kind of “argument,” and disposes of it as being of as little value as the wanton smoke-curls of the weed she loves so well. Among the orthodox and the indifference – who may be placed upon pretty much the same plane as far as honest inquiry is concerned – theosophy has made no convert, but in the ranks of the ever-increasing class of speculative thinkers who have been forced to abandon the old traditional creeds the “new” gospel has received a large number of earnest followers, perhaps the most noticeable being Mrs. Annie Besant, whose succession to theosophical ranks proves – if it proves anything – that there is “something in it” worthy of investigation. In America, where the cult has taken a firmer root, the theosophists claim Edison, the great electrician, as one of their disciples, and his certificate of membership is enrolled among the society’s archives.

The subject was laid before the Croydon Socratic Society on Tuesday night, at their usual meeting at West Croydon, by no less an authority than Mr. Herbert Burrows, who, in addition to being a highly-valued friend of the society and a fellow socialistic worker with Mrs. Besant, is also an enthusiastic theosophist and a brilliant young thinker in more than one branch. The Socratics are a more than ordinarily hard-headed body, but it was plain to see that on Tuesday evening there was a lack of sympathy with the subject that boded trouble ahead, as the sequel showed. Mr. Burrows first spoke of the difficulties of handling a subject which comprehended the concentrated knowledge of the East extending over a period of possibly 20,000 years in about forty minutes, and expressed the opinion that he was quite prepared to find at the concussion fo the lecture that his hearers only matter of doubt was as to whether he was a fool or a madman, or a combination of both. He then passed on the deal with the question in the way most suited to the assembly, namely, from it scientific aspect, and remarked that theosophy was utterly and entirely opposed to the Darwinian theory, and that it dealt with the more recondite forces and laws of nature in respect of which Western investigators were as ignorant as Newton’s child upon the seashore, aye, and more so, because, to speak figuratively, they had not even the knowledge to pick up the stones. Wisely keeping clear of the phenomenal portion of his subject – for theosophical wonder-working, even if it were possible to him, would be no more convincing of the truth of theosophy than the working of a material miracle was proof of any sort of moral truth – he explained in passing that theosophy claimed to be the underlying truth of which all the great and varied religious systems were but the exoteric side, and that the Theosophical Society had been founded to accomplish three objects, (1) To be the nucleus of a universal brotherhood; (2) To promote the study of Aryan and other Eastern literatures, religions, and sciences; and (3) To investigate unexplained laws of nature and the physical powers latent in man. Now, Western science failed to accomplish the latter object in some very essential particulars, and that principally because its investigations were conducted on imperfect lines, while theosophy, working upon an entirely different lines, not only agreed with the conclusions of the Western scientist, but could find a passage beyond the dead wall which blocked the path of all our scientists at a certain point, and beyond which wall no single Western investigator had yet been able to penetrate. What was the reason of this? Possibly because Western scientists started on too limited a basis. Personally he had long ago been led to the conclusion – from the study of Huxlye’s treaties on protoplasm forces, and from Professor Huxley’s own showing the material physical sciences of the body proved rather a barrier than an assistance to the study of the powers of nature. For example, when a note of music was struck it was accompanied by numbers of other miner sounds which it was impossible for the ear to distinguish because of its inherent of its inherent defects, while at the same time the existence of the minor notes had been demonstrated ad nauseam. A defect of this kind must prove an obstacle to true investigation because of its misleading results. If that were the case man practically knew nothing at all about the forces which were behind those of which we do know or fancy we know something. This naturally led to the conclusion that if our senses were only refined and acute enough it would be possible to perceive and understand the unseen forces of nature. On the other hand, the scientists of the West, everyone of them, however profound their investigations, were met at one point in their inquiries by a dead wall which they found it impossible to pass, in a very large class of phenomena, which they found to be absolutely inexplainable by their modern science.

Theosophy boasted that it could pass this wall by reason of the storehouse of actual mental knowledge, not mere theory only, which had been stored in the minds of a few men in India and of late years in Tibet, and handed on from one to the other for thousands of years. These men were investigators themselves, and they made a secret of their knowledge for obvious reasons, because by virtue of their knowledge there were few of the processes of nature that were secret to them; they asserted that they could explain phenomena whose solution was regarded as hopeless, and that simply and entirely by their knowledge of the laws of nature. In these things they owned no supernatural influences – there is no personal god in theosophy, which is purely pantheistic – but could give a rational explanation from the phenomena of nature, according to the laws of nature, though doubtless not according to the laws of Western scientists, and by this means they claimed to obtain a clue to both the spiritual and physical nature of man. The western scientist, up to a certain point, could state how certain phenomena were manifested, but the theosophist went further, and could tell why these things were. Science was absolutely unable to explain phenomena such as hypnotism, clairvoyance, and mesmerism to anything like an adequate extent and while he knew the majority of people dismissed these things as a result of trickery and fraud, they were nevertheless established facts, and rapidly establishing themselves as practical agents of surgical treatment. Apart from that theosophy could give a clear and adequate reason why for these things, and until people could give a better explanation it was both foolish and unphilosophic for people to deny that theosophy could do so.

Mr. Burrows then divided into an intensely interesting disquisition with regard to the numerous laws of nature whose existence and demonstration is known to our modern scientists, but which have entirely baffled them in their efforts to comprehend and tabulate the same. For instance, by means of a definite arrangement of a violin, a turning for, a strong light, and a sort of sheet suspended after the style of a “magic lantern” sheet, it was found that a note of music possesses distinct and unmistakable colours, which vary with different notes. Another instrument, the pendulagram, demonstrates that a musical note possess force. The apparatus is constructed upon vibrating principles, and is fitted with a universal-jointed pen. Upon a certain note being struck certain spiral curves are recorded by the pen. Strike another not, and a different class of spirals is produced; strike the first not again, and the spirals are produced similar to those registered on the first occasion. Now, why are these spiral? That is what theosophy alone can tell, and the man who has this knowledge can practically control the forces of nature! The materialist failed to surmount the wall that stopped him, and why? Partly because he failed to recognize that there was no rigid line of demarcation between the spiritual and the material part of man. Judging by the state of clairvoyance, when the physical material senses of man were in a certain sense paralysed, the intelligent, spiritual, mental faculties of man were sharpened. Man dealt in two worlds, the outward visible world, and the inward invisible world. The latter could only come into play when the other was deadened, or, in other words, purified and refined of the presence of the material outer world. Taking another line, he showed that the theosophist and the Western scientist, by widely differing methods, agreed, step by step, that under the whole nature lay some widely-diffused basic force, and that while the Western could only tell the relation between things – as in the molecular theory – the theosophist could explain the essence of the things themselves, or rather, could get behind the relation of the things and explain why they were so related. This method, produced to its natural conclusion, must lead up to the explanation of the spiritual nature of man, and thus theosophy was seen to comprehend the great truths that underlie all the great religions of the world.

At this stage the speaker left the relatively-scientific part of the question – which is at once its explanation and its raison d’eire – and passed on to deal with the teachings of theosophy, which is much more easy to follow. The very name is a clue, for “theosophy” (knowledge of or about God – the term God being universally accepted, not in the sense of a personal anthromorphic God, but as including the whole of both the known and the unknown) implies knowledge or wisdom respecting the absolute. It is sometimes also called the wisdom-religion because it professes to have had from time immemorial the knowledge of all the laws governing the spiritual, the moral, and the material. The reason why this knowledge has not been imparted to all is obvious – a man with such knowledge would have the lives and interests of his fellows who were not equally enlightened entirely at his disposal. The existence of three abnormal powers has been recognised, as a matter of fact, in plain, practical, prosy Germany, where stringent laws have already been passed against the exercise of hypnotic powers – such as those demonstrated by the Rev. Arthur Tooth at Woodside the other day – by unqualified persons. It is easily seen that if such laws are necessary to restrain the persons who do not fully comprehend the feeble powers they undoubtedly possess, the necessity would be vastly greater in the case of persons who have exhaustive knowledge of far greater powers. Hence in the interests of the race, the theosophists say, the knowledge is jealousy guarded in a few minds, although it is acquirable by anyone who will go through the long and tedious mental, physical, and spiritual training necessary to that end, for theosophists hold that the knowledge they possess can only be obtained by the careful refinement of the spiritual entity from the obscurations of the material physical, a process involving purity of word, thought, idea, and action. It is claimed that the theosophist has ascertained by actual experience that man, instead of consisting simply of body, soul, and spirit, is a septenary, or seven-partite being. The first division is the physical body, which acts as the vehicle for all the other principles; then there is the vital principle common to all animals; and the next is the astral, or the double or phantom body. Theosophists believe that the adept (a person who has attained to the higher knowledge) can separate his higher spiritual principle from the physical, and travel whither he will in the guise of the astral body, leaving the physical in a state of trance. The fourth, which forms the last of what is called the lower principles, is the seat of the animal desires and passions. Teh three higher principles consist (1) of the mind or intelligence (which has two aspects, one towards the lower and one towards the higher) ; (2) the spiritual soul, which forms the vehicle for (3) the spirit itself. Now, with regard to this “spirit” may be introduced one of the vital principles of theosophy. It is believed as an actual fact that the spirit in man is the only real and permanent part of his being, the rest of his nature being variously compounded, nad consequently always resolving into other compounds. The spirit of every man is said to spark fo the Divine Whole, whence it comes by cyclic or evolutionary procedure through every form of matter till it reaches its highest form – self-consciousness – in man. From the human enthrallment the spirit, according to its efforts while in that condition, passes at the death of the body towards the higher (i.e. towards re-absorption in the Divine Whole), or else downwards into the lower forms of matter, thence to “work out its own salvation,” or return to self-consciousness in the human. In its upward course the divine spark is u undergoing repeated incarnations through the vegetable, mineral, animal, and human states ; in each of these it is latent, but it is only manifest in man. The spirit retains its individuality during the whole progress from its origin to its reunion to the Divine, and exists successively in various races and planets.

The discussion that ensued beggars description from the fact that nearly everybody who spoke seemed to have failed to grasp the bearings of the subject. This was only natural under the circumstances – the explanation of a single page of a theosophical “educational” tract is sufficient to make a man’s hair curl if he has not been initiated – but the lecturer dealt lightly with his critics in his reply. The latter, by the way, did not commence till nearly 11 o’clock, and was principally devoted to the removal of misconceptions. From a quantity of propagandist leaflets – on of which (“Karma as a Cure for Trouble”) strangely reminded one of a patent medicine puff – it was seen that the practical side of theosophy is of no little importance from teh social point of view. One of the essentials to spiritual development is “the entire eradication of selfishness in all forms, and the cultivation of broad, generous sympathy in and effor for the good of others,” and another stipulates for “the careful performance of every duty belonging to one’s station in life, without desire for reward, leaving results for Divine law.” Apart from this, theosophy professes to explain the contrast and unisions of the world’s faiths and the common foundations underlying them all ; the existence of evil, suffering, and sorrow; social and individual inequalities, contrasts, and antithesis; accidents, misfortunes, and untimely deaths; the failure of conventional religions to greatly extend their areas, reform abuses, reorganize society, expand to the idea of brotherhood, abate discontent, diminish crime, elevate humanity, and adequately realise in individual lives the ideal they professedly uphold. These form only a small portion of the large order theosophists are ready to fill, but if they can only get believers in their strange tremendous system to go heartily in for spiritual development on the lines mentioned above, there are plenty of folks in this world who will be glad to find a place for them.

Contact me here to order : hello@felixmarcel.com (fast answer)

 

EN : ➡️ Following the positive feedbacks I’ve got from first batch of focusing screens I made 4 years ago, I’ve decided to offer that service to analog photographers!

These ground glasses are polished by hand and not with acid or laser like industrial ones.

This offers an ultra thin grain and a bright screen which is really nice when you work with small depth of field.

You can choose to upgrade your current ground glass, or refurbish an old camera or replace of broken glass.

 

I try to keep in stock a small batch of standard sizes ground glasses. However, I recommend you to double check the dimensions you need before ordering.

Large format camera makers (Sinar, Toyo, Speed Graphic, Chamonix, Stenopeika, Gibellini , Intrepid, Kodak Deardoff, Shenhao, Wista, Linhof, ArcaSwiss etc...) use different focusing screen sizes!

 

📏 Use a caliper or a precise ruler to take the measurements of the glass you need. You can slightly adjust the glass later using sandpaper or metal file with a lot of care and gloves!

 

👷‍♂️ My ground glasses are made by hands, the polishing is a long and exhausting process, some imperfections could be visible (really small scratches). The cuts are <1mm precise too! Overall the result is really good ! Only have positive feedbacks after +1,5k ground glasses made in 4 years ! I regularly make focusing screens for professional large camera makers.

 

️ For custom size order, please ask the current making-time before placing your oder, I might be travelling or my glass supplier takes some vacations from time to time. I try to do my best to make it quick but I don’t want you to be disappointed by the potential delay. It usually takes two weeks to make a ground glass, more in summer!

 

📞 I can be contacted through the platform anytime or here :

hello@felixmarcel.com

(+33)699226536

 

💸 You can pay through the platform payment service, I also accept Paypal, Lydia, Bank Transfert etc.

 

📦 I ship all my orders with a lot of care. I protect a lot the glasses in order to avoid any damage.

Every order to France includes tracking.

If you need a tracking number (Europe or Worldwide) it costs €3,2 and you’ll have to drop me a message when you order.

(tracking recommended for Mexico, Russia, Brazil, Chili, Peru etc..).

 

FR : ➡️ Après des retours positifs j'ai décidé de réaliser d'autres verres de visée. Les verres sont découpés par un professionnel et sont polis par mes soins, ils sont très brillants et le grain du dépoli est très fin, c'est très agréable surtout lorsqu'on shoote avec des profondeurs de champs minuscules. Vous pouvez aussi choisir d'améliorer un vieux verre dépoli industriel, restaurer une chambre ou remplacer un verre brisé. Le polissage des verres est réalisé à la main et non à l'acide ou au laser comme les fabricants modernes.

 

Je dispose, en général, d'un petit stock d'avance de verres aux dimensions standards. Je recommande néanmoins de toujours vérifier la taille souhaitée avant de passer commande ! Les fabricants d'appareils grands formats (Sinar, Toyo, Speed Graphic, Chamonix, Stenopeika, Gibellini , Intrepid, Kodak Deardoff, Shenhao, Wista, Linhof, ArcaSwiss etc...) utilisent des tailles différentes de verre de visée.

 

📏 Utilisez un pied à coulisse ou une règle précise pour prendre les dimensions. Vous pouvez ensuite ajuster le verre lors de son installation avec du papier de verre ou une lime à métaux avec délicatesse et des gants!

 

👷‍♂️ Mes dépolis sont réalisés à la main, leur polissage est une procédure longue et fatigante, quelques micro-rayures peuvent être présentes. Les découpes sont réalisées à la main par un artisan vitrier de ma ville natale, la précision des découpes est malgré tout < 1mm ! Je n’ai eu que des retours positifs, après plus de 1,500 dépolis réalisés en 4 ans. Je fabrique régulièrement des dépolis pour des fabricants d’appareils photos grands formats !

 

️ Pour les commandes sur mesure, merci de me demander le temps de réalisation avant de commander, je suis parfois en déplacement ou alors mon vitrier est en congé et je n’ai pas envie que vous soyez déçus ! Je fais tout mon possible pour réaliser les dépolis dans les meilleurs délais !

En général il me faut une quinzaine de jours pour réaliser les dépolis sur mesure, parfois plus en été.

 

📞 Je suis joignable à tout moment par messages sur la plateforme.

 

💸 Vous pouvez payer directement via la plateforme. J’accepte également les réglements via Paypal, Lydia, Chèques ou Virements Bancaires pour les commandes spécifiques.

 

📦 Mes envois sont réalisés avec soin. Je protège avec attention mes verres afin qu'ils arrivent intacts à destination !

Tous les envois réalisés en France incluent un numéro de suivi.

 

I've uploaded some pictures made by happy customers and their cameras :-)

Talking XX

  

And then a scholar said, "Speak of Talking."

 

And he answered, saying:

 

You talk when you cease to be at peace with your thoughts;

 

And when you can no longer dwell in the solitude of your heart you live in your lips, and sound is a diversion and a pastime.

 

And in much of your talking, thinking is half murdered.

 

For thought is a bird of space, that in a cage of words many indeed unfold its wings but cannot fly.

 

There are those among you who seek the talkative through fear of being alone.

 

The silence of aloneness reveals to their eyes their naked selves and they would escape.

 

And there are those who talk, and without knowledge or forethought reveal a truth which they themselves do not understand.

 

And there are those who have the truth within them, but they tell it not in words.

 

In the bosom of such as these the spirit dwells in rhythmic silence.

 

When you meet your friend on the roadside or in the market place, let the spirit in you move your lips and direct your tongue.

 

Let the voice within your voice speak to the ear of his ear;

 

For his soul will keep the truth of your heart as the taste of the wine is remembered

 

When the color is forgotten and the vessel is no more.

This photo was taken in remote village called by name Klisa, near county capital city Osijek, once upon time this village was urban and pride of that county, with airport and other facilities. However 1991 after war come on our door steps this same village was on very first defense lines…6 years after, war was finish…only what was left are ruins….and time was stop…people are prisoners in this time….still behind living in past…

  

My family and I have been praying for a home now for almost a mouth but now the LORD has answered a prayer with a home. Praise the LORD.

The abouna get a call on his mobile inside the church of Saint Antony. Despite the thick adobe walls, we could still get cell reception here. Yes, the monks have cell phones. Why wouldn't they?

 

The church was recently restored inside. The icons are stunning. Beautiful examples of medieval iconography of the Coptic art. Underneath this church is the oldest Coptic cell in the world. It dates to the 4th century AD.

This is a photograph from the 1st round of the 2015 Mullingar Road League which was held in Belvedere House and Gardens, Mullingar, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Wednesday 6th May 2015 at 20:00. This year the 5KM was ran on a modified route based on the route from the last couple of years. Tonight the final 1KM stayed within the Belvedere Gardens bringing runners down to the lakeside for a second time and finishing along the aptly named Stream Of Life. The route modification meant that the race offered a slightly faster route than the hill finish of previous years.

The race is promoted by Mullingar Harriers for the Pat Finnerty Memorial Cup. Competitors need to run 3 races out of the 4 races in May (any order) to be considered in the overall placing in categories at the conclusion of the league. Over 350 people took part in tonight's event. The weather was perfect for running with sunshine with just a little breeze. The new finish area provided a nice space for runners to stay around and chat in the evening sunshine. The Mullingar Road League 2015 has started off successfully and looks to add to the success in the history of this great series.

The "Road League" is something of a misnomer but is an indication of the League's origins on the roads around Ladestown Mullingar prior to it's move into Belvedere in 2008. The Road League is the envy of many other races in the country as the Belvedere locations offers a completely traffic free 5KM route.

 

We have an extensive set of photographs from tonight in the following Flickr Album: www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/16772614064/

We use the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License for all our photographs here in this photograph set. What does this mean in reality?

The explaination is very simple.

Attribution- anyone using our photographs gives us an appropriate credit for it. This ensures that people aren't taking our photographs and passing them off as their own. This usually just mean putting a link to our photographs somewhere on your website, blog, or Facebook where other people can see it.

ShareAlike – anyone can use these photographs, and make changes if they like, or incorporate them into a bigger project, but they must make those changes available back to the community under the same terms.

 

Above all what Creative Commons aims to do is to encourage creative sharing. See some examples of Creative Commons photographs on Flickr: www.flickr.com/creativecommons/

 

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?

 

As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:

 

     ►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera

     ►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set

     ►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone

     ►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!

  

You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.

 

Don't like your photograph here?

That's OK! We understand!

 

If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.

 

I want to tell people about these great photographs!

Our last night in Jakarta (and on Java) there was a huge show in a tiny 2 story cafe. 15 bands from all over the punk spectrum - totally amazing. I had been ill from eating some delicious but ultimately dodgy steamed & toasted rice drizzled with coconut milk the day before, so I must confess that I didn't have the stamina to watch all the bands. Shame on me. Admittedly, I usually get worn out after more than 5 bands anyway - too much to process between the music and the photo making...

 

This is Aca (pronounced Acha) from Straight Answer. He was one of our chaperones around Java. Acha has a heart of gold and was an absolute saint about fielding all of our inane questions! He also made sure we had tasty vegan food everywhere we went (as did Ari and Andrash). He's also a great frontman!
