When we are in the supermarket and someone rams our ankle with a shopping cart, then apologises for doing so, why do we say, "It's all right"? Well, it isn't all right, so why don't we say, "That really hurt, why don't you watch where you're going?"

LL. B Test Paper/ Internal Assessment

The second semester was hardly a month's affair. In between they wanted all the students to do all the assignments for internal assessment. I could hardly do all the seminars; but not all of the assignments and test papers! This is besides the poor attendance. This will be aggrevated as on Monday, i have to be here for the Holy Week recollection and the Chrism Mass in the evening, though bishop left it to my discretion!

Palm Sunday 2010

This being my first Palm Sunday and Holy Week at Thycaud, went earlier than usual to be familiar with the traditions there, if any. On reaching there, against my expectations, came to know that there will be evening Mass. This upset me, though i didn't have any other special programme. That made me moody during the liturgy, at least till the homily! By then people could note my distractedness like making mistakes in the readings, yawning and so on. Somehow this was carried over during the announcements and seemed to have committed few mistakes regarding the meetings! But i apologized to the BCC office bearers' meeting after the Mass.

Though there was enough time, i spent in reading the news papers and later contacting some of my friends and home also. Mary John seems to be having problems with his father. Every one is having one problem or other. He also wanted to get back to Charles with whom he had some misunderstandings. I appreciated that gesture and told him that i am there if at all he wants to be with him.

Evening Mass at Thycaud, followed by Family Unit meeting at Unit V, Vyakulamatha Unit. These days, i am preaching from a rational angle and trying to see Jesus more as a man than God, rather man becoming God than God becoming man. Incarnation is my key for understanding everything related to faith...

Religiosity and Spirituality...

Man has a Spirit, rather man is spirit embodied! So, there is no wonder that he is spiritual. But then why at all he be religious?

Spirituality is the domain of mystics whereas religiosity is that of domineering ones and that is why it can't be comfortable without hierarchy! This is what all the so-called world religions do! They build institutions, power centres and so on. The need money not for any needs of ordinary people like for food and drink, or for clothing and shelter, but for something greater than that!

Someone is contacting me and that way troubling at this late hour. May be that i get back later..
