I last visited Oxford about 15 years ago so it was definitely time to go back. I lucked out with the weather - it was a gorgeous day in mid-May 2022, actually too bright at first. I tried to check out as many attractions as possible but trying to navigate admission policies was a nightmare - some places required buying tickets a day in advance and others were closed even though they said they were open. One security guard told me "It's Oxford, things are different here". That is true. Next time I'll stay a few days.

 

I misplaced my notes, so if you know the names of any of the building, feel free to help me. Thanks.

The obligatory tourist photo of Divinity Schools, taken at the start of a tour of the Bodleian (sadly, no photos allowed inside Duke Humfrey's library inside, which is definitely the coolest bit).

this couple was doing a photo shoot. this is a completely unretouched photo, just as the camera saw it. they had the leica version :)

There is so much we are not taught about the spirituality or sacredness of our divinity that we fall out of touch with our sexuality. Our host, Amanda Biccum, takes us closer to our connection by reawakening our conscious sexuality. At the heart of it is the ancient practice of tantric sex that could increase and create mind-body connections. To know details in brief - read our blog at amandabiccum.com/reawakening-our-conscious-sexuality-what...!

Opened in 1857, Philadelphia Divinity School was an Episcopal (Anglican) theological college (seminary) of Evangelical turned liberal churchmanship. This marvellous set of Gothic buildings was built in the 1920s (a designated architectural landmark so it can't be torn down). It closed in 1973, merging with the theological college in Cambridge, Mass. to form the Episcopal Divinity School. The University of Pennsylvania, a very secular school, owns this now. Nobody can afford the rent so the church is empty. An infant school rents some of the rest of the buildings: they open up the church for a plant sale once a year. Inside there is still a stone altar, wooden ceiling with saints painted on it, some gilded choir stalls, and galleries for the pulpit and choir (and where the organ used to be). S. Clement’s Yarnall Library of Theology used to be here; now it’s in Penn’s library. The grounds were a popular dog park until the university and the city built a primary school here, next to these buildings.

Divinity and divine are broadly applied but loosely defined terms, used variously within different faiths and belief systems — and even by different individuals within a given faith — to refer to some transcendent or transcendental power, or its attributes or manifestations in the world. The root of the words is literally 'Godlike' (from the Latin 'Deus', cf. Dyaus, closely related to Greek 'Zeus', Divan in Persian and Deva in Sanskrit), but the use varies significantly depending on which god is being discussed. (wikipedia)
