What is this constant urge
that beckons me to see
beyond the day to day
of familiarity?
What is this nagging quest
beyond all time and place
which opens up an eye
to enter inner space?
Beyond the flesh and blood
beyond illusion of the mind
is there a world alive
that each of us can find?.
What is this other realm
that ancients full anoint
as they proclaim this life
as just a focal point?
Who is this witness Self
that my longing seeks to touch?
What is this beating Heart
which yearns to love so much?

" First came art and then along came science to explain the art" - Tulshi Sen

Frank's lunchtime favorite: Club Colombia Dorada!
We took a delightful day trip from Medellín to the old colonial capital of Santa Fe de Antioquia.
With the country divided by three Andean cordilleras that run roughly north to south, Colombia offers a wide range of climate zones in a relatively short distance.
As a kid, I went from the cool climate of Bogotá to camp in the "hot country," which is a good translation of the term highland Colombians use for the tropical lowlands.
Medellín, at about 4,000 feet above sea level, is temperate compared to Santa Fe de Antioquia. There, it is hot, hot, hot! People come from Medellín to stay for the day or the week at resorts where they can enjoy the heat from the comfort of a lovely, cool swimming pool.
The landscape there is dry forest.
Here's what Wikipedia has to say about Santa Fe de Antioquia:
Santa Fe de Antioquia is a municipality in the Antioquia Department, Colombia. The city is located approximately 50 miles (80 km) north of Medellín, the department capital. It has a population of approximately 23,000 inhabitants.
Founded in 1541 by Jorge Robledo as Villa de Santafé on the western bank of the Cauca River, in 1545 it received the coat of arms and the title of City of Antioquia from King Philip II of Spain.
It was elevated to the status of parish in 1547 by the bishop of Popayán. It changed its name in 1584 when it became the capital of Antioquia. It was a mining town from its beginnings and the gold mining operation has been the base of its economy.
Its cathedral was constructed in 1799 and elevated to Diocese of Antioquia in 1804 by Pope Pius VII. In 1813 Antioquia was declared a sovereign and independent state with Santa Fe as its capital, a status it maintained until 1826, when Medellín was chosen as the new departmental seat.
Due to the state of conservation of its colonial architecture, it was declared a national monument in 1960.
The municipal area is 493 square kilometres (190 sq mi), with a mountainous territory within the Central Cordillera of the Andes and watered by the rivers Cauca and Tonusco.
The economy of Santa Fe de Antioquia is based on agriculture: the main products are coffee, maize and beans.
Tourism has been, and continues to be one of the more important economic enterprises for the municipality. The opening of the Tunnel of the West (which reduces the time and the distance between the locality and Medellín) in 2006 has allowed hundreds of tourists to arrive each weekend, stimulating the vocation of the vicinity as a summer vacation site.
All of the town is a historical site; the architecture that has survived through the years gives Santa Fe de Antioquia the aspect of a city "suspended" in the colonial era, which is the reason the city was declared National monument.

No equality - Nellie McKay
There's no equality here
There's no equality anywhere
And every fear you can face
Is quickly replaced
By one you can't loose
It's an illusion
That's never meant to occur
Won't happen to her
Won't happen to you
And you let me down slowly
Let me down slow and you turn me around
Let me down easy
Let yourself go, now you're going to town
Baby, baby, can't you see
What this hypocrisy is doing to me
We should’ve kicked over the ladder from the start
You used to be my lover
You used to be my soul soul brother
I used to believe
That you could conceive
Conceive of my love
But you let me down slowly
You let me down slow and you turn me around
Let me down easy
Let yourself go, now you're going to town
Baby, baby, can't you see
What this absurdity is doing to me
We should’ve kicked over the ladder from the start
There’s no equality
Nobody knows the trouble I’ve seen
No one supposes just how mean I can be
I play the victim, but I’m really a cad
And all I’ve ever wanted ‘s everything I’m gonna have
There’s no equality here
There’s no equality on Earth I fear
There are so many (incomprehensible)
It’s me or it’s you
That’s why I let you down slowly
Let you down slow and I turn you around
Let you down easy
Let myself go, now we’re both set to drown
No equality presented by Nellie McKay this song show the plot of story, that people get indignant about inequality in Council of Vocations, and the Council of Scholars. They view any inequalities, whether in educational attainment, as a sign of injustice. Because they are all different, inequalities are the natural result of living in a free society. This song connects to the people in the story they had no concept of individuality, they could not have individual names, only had the number. The patterned the numbering like telephone numbers. They try to hide their intelligence, or they will be punished more than anyone else.
Freewill - Rush
There are those who think that life is nothing left to chance,
A host of holy horrors to direct our aimless dance.
A planet of playthings,
We dance on the strings
Of powers we cannot perceive.
"The stars aren't aligned
Or the gods are malign"-
Blame is better to give than receive.
You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice.
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.
You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill;
I will choose a path that's clear-
I will choose Free Will.
There are those who think that they were dealt a losing hand,
The cards were stacked against them- they weren't born in lotus-land.
All preordained-
A prisoner in chains-
A victim of venomous fate.
Kicked in the face,
You can't pray for a place
In heaven's unearthly estate.
You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice.
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.
You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill;
I will choose a path that's clear-
I will choose Free Will.
Freewill presented by Rush, the song shows the plot in the story is about freewill and belief of freedom of choice not fate. Some people believe that things happen for a reason that are out of their control like puppets. They believe that everything is controlled by fate. He believes that he can make his own choices and thinks about the possible uses of his discovery. He decides that he must present his light to the World Council of Scholars. Others who can join him in a society based on individual freedom. And one day, they will fight to free all those enslaved by collectivism.
Heart - These Heart
Spare a little candle
Save some light for me
Figures up ahead
Moving in the trees
White skin in linen
Perfume on my wrist
And the full moon that hangs over
These dreams in the mist
Darkness on the edge
Shadows where I stand
I search for the time
On a watch with no hands
I want to see you clearly
Come closer than this
But all I remember
Are the dreams in the mist
These dreams go on when I close my eyes
Every second of the night I live another life
These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside
Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away
Is it cloak n dagger
Could it be spring or fall
I walk without a cut
Through a stained glass wall
Weaker in my eyesight
The candle in my grip
And words that have no form
Are falling from my lips
These dreams go on when I close my eyes
Every second of the night I live another life
These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside
Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away
There's something out there
I can't resist
I need to hide away from the pain
There's something out there
I can't resist
The sweetest song is silence
That I've ever heard
Funny how your feet
In dreams never touch the earth
In a wood full of princes
Freedom is a kiss
But the prince hides his face
From dreams in the mist
These dreams go on when I close my eyes
Every second of the night I live another life
These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside
Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away
These dreams go on when I close my eyes
Every second of the night I live another life
These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside
Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away
Heart presented by These Dream shows the theme of Anthem. It is tells about "every second of the night, I live another life." He want hides away from the pain, but it is unclear whether he wants to live in the dream world to hide away from the pain of the real world, or wants to go back to the real world to hide from the pain of the dream world. This song continues to the mood of Anthem when he is assigned to a menial job cleaning the streets, Equality 7-2521 rebels against collectivism by conducting secret scientific research, which eventually leads him to re-create electric light.
Give a Little Love - Aswad
Living in this crazy world, so caught up in the confusion
Nothing is-a making sense for me and you
But maybe if we find a way, there is got to be the solution
How to make a brighter day? What do we do?
We've got to give a little love, have a little hope
Let's make this world a little better
Try a little more, harder than before
Let's do what we can do together
Only we can make it better...
Only if we try...
Got the words on our minds, got the troubles on our shoulders
Sometimes it just seems so much what we go through
But maybe if we take the time, time to understand each other
We can learn to make it right. What do we do?
We've got to give a little love, have a little hope
Let's make this world a little better
Try a little more, harder than before
Let's do what we can do together
Only we can make it better...
Only if we try...
Only we can make it better...
Only if we try...
If everybody took somebody by the hand
Then maybe everyone could learn to love and understand
Give a little love...
Give a little love...
Give a little love...
Give a little love...
Give A Little Love present by Aswad shows the mood of the story. This song connects with the part in the story when he is noticed there by his love, a girl called Liberty 5-3000. They come across an ancient house, a relic of the Unmentionable times. There they rediscover the lost language of the self. They rename themselves Prometheus and Gaea, and Prometheus vows to use his new knowledge to build a society based on individual freedom.
Electric Light Orchestra – Livin' Thing
Sailin' away on the crest of a wave
It's like magic
Rollin' and ridin' and slippin' & slidin'
It's magic
And you, and your sweet desire,
You took me, higher and higher
It's a livin' thing,
It's a terrible thing to lose
It's a given thing
What a terrible thing to lose
Making believe this is what you conceived
From your worst day,
Moving in line then you look back in time
To your first day
Takin' a dive 'cos you can't halt the slide
Floating downstream,
So let her go don't start spoiling the show
It's a bad dream.
Electric Light Orchestra present by Livin' Thing that song show the plot of the story. In carrying out experiments in the underground tunnel, Equality 7-2521 has discovered the power of electricity. He first stumbled on it accidentally two years ago, while the use of copper wires hanging from the tunnel to the frog for biological experiments. He made the main object of his experiments. The knowledge he learned afraid because he can be punished discovered secrets unknown to the Council of Scholars. Finally He re-create electric light.

Michael Sanders from Louisiana, Br. Christopher Dandridge from Maine and Br. Nicholas Kalinowski form Missouri.
The novices were vested in a black Roman cassock and sash (without fringe) during Solemn Vespers in St. John Cantius Church on the vigil of the Solemnity of the Assumption, the Canons Regular of St. John Cantius’s Founding Day, August 15.
We ask you to keep these men in your prayers as they continue to discern their vocation to the Canons Regular.
