allaboutmary:

Alma Redemptoris Mater by the Czech baroque composed Jan Dismas Zelenka.

Loving Mother of the Redeemer, gate of heaven, star of the sea, assist your people who have fallen yet strive to rise again. To the wonderment of nature you bore your Creator, yet remained a virgin after as before. You who received Gabriel’s joyful greeting, have pity on us poor sinners.

St. Therese of Lisieux does the laundry, 1895

Saint Thérèse doing the laundry is hugely significant and perennially relevant. One of the novices used to splash her and it drove her crazy, but of course Thérèse never complained, between her staunch adherence to silence and her painstaking, repititious decision to purify herself through a thousand thousand minute furies. We’re so fortunate to have photographs of Thérèse in the midst of suffering along her Little Way. I think this moment would have fallen during the years when she served Carmel as novice mistress, and I believe that on top of everything, she had already come down with the case of tuberculosis which would ultimately claim her life. I love these photographs because they remind me that extraordinary people are still people who need to do ordinary stuff. Also, the novice on the right (Thérèse’s left) is her biological sister Céline, four years Thérèse’s senior, though she was the last of the Martin girls to enter Carmel, between discerning marriage and caring for their ailing father, Bl. Louis Martin, until the end of his life. Thérèse and Céline remained close throughout Thérèse’s life, even under monastic rule. I just love that she always stayed near her. Céline died in 1959.

Study: Caffeine Can Improve Memory

Caffeine can improve attention and focus, we’ve known for a while. It also enhances working memory (short term, in the moment). Caffeine’s effects on long-term memory, though, if any, aren’t well established.

A study published yesterday in the journal Nature Neuroscience gets into that in a unique way, looking at caffeine’s effect on memory consolidation.

signorcasaubon:

Trinidad trificela — The Three-Faced Trinity, an iconographic type of the Godhead that fell into disuse (or rather, was effectively outlawed as heterodox) in the wake of the Reformation. Also of note is the Scutum Fidei— the “shield of faith”, which proclaimed the Christian belief in the Holy Trinity: Three Persons, each distinct from each other, but sharing one divine essence.

goandannouce:

Are we walking to Heaven backward ?

Instead of the Liturgy being upwardly focused to God and outwardly toward the mission of the Church (to make disciples of all the nations), we tend today to “gather” and hunker down in rather closed circles looking at each other, and speaking at great length about ourselves.

In the ancient orientation or “stance” of the Mass that was ubiquitous until 1965, the focus was outward and upward. Though disparaged by many in recent decades as the priest “having his back to the people” even this description shows the self obsession of the modern age. And to those speak this way about the liturgical orientation of almost 2,000 years, the answer must come, “The priest does not have his back to you. Actually it is not about you at all. The liturgy is about God.
And the priest, and all the faithful are turned outward and upward to God…
