2008-04-23 16:10:00 Catching the train from Florence to Assisi gives the gift of 3 or so hours to see the wondrous Italian countryside. Streams of water dance across pebbled riverbeds, scurrying through the trees that stand guard from the rivers’ edge. Houses litter the countryside, in various states of evolution from the youth of construction, the middle-ages of ...

God too would kneel down | St. Francis of Assisi
2008-02-05 03:26:00 I think God might be a little prejudiced.For once He asked me to join Him on a walkthrough this world,and we gazed into every heart on this earth,and I noticed He lingered a bit longerbefore any face that wasweeping,and before any eyes that werelaughing.And sometimes when we passeda soul in worshipGod too would kneeldown.I have come to learn: Godadores Hiscreation.Saint Francis of Assisi . version by Daniel Ladinsky.

Saint Francis of Assisi meets Shams Tabriz
2008-01-14 22:34:00 What is common between Saint Francis of Assisi (1182-1226) and Jelaluddin Rumi (1207-1273)? Both are ecstatic mystic of divine love and the common source might very well be Shams of Tabriz's inner illumination, who is more known as the guide of Rumi. What is less known is the accounts that St Francis was in contact with Rumi?s mentor at some important point in his life in Damascus.Saint Francis of Assisi, perhaps the most beloved saint of the Western world, founded the Franciscan Order, and is known for his embrace of poverty (faqara, a very central attitude of the suifs), his commitment to creation, and to nonviolence. On the other hand Rumi is the most beloved poet of love not only in East but also in West. Francis and Rumi both are most celebrated mystics of love. Rumi and St Francis, the great names in Abrahamic mysticism, are thus given a point of contrast which reflects their spiritual unity. (credit)Saint Francis's love for nature and his hymns to the sun, moon, earth, and ...
Oh to Be like Francis of Assisi
2007-12-20 03:46:00 Connie sent me this great quote by G.K. Chesterton about Francis of Assisi. It says: “it is utterly useless to study a great thing like the Franciscan movement while remaining in the modern mood that murmurs against gloomy asceticism. The whole point about St. Francis of Assisi is that he certainly was ascetical and ...

Assisi
2007-11-28 05:05:00 Another of our day trips while living in Italy was to Assisi, which is also located in the Umbria region. Assisi is the birth place of St. Francis. We went to Assisi on a tour bus instead of driving there ourselves. We discovered on this trip that we preferred to travel with our own car. Tours are nice, you get to sleep instead of drive and you get a guided tour. Jeff and Mandy do not like the guided tours, too much talking, and I don't like to ride on buses so much. We arrived in Assisi on a very cold, rainy day with extremely cold and strong winds. The town of Assisi is full of hills, so imagine us walking up steep hills in the rain with 100 mile per hour wind blowing toward us. This is how I remember Assisi. Whenever we got to a location of interest and took shelter inside. We got to see the church that St. Francis attended as a child. We got to sit in the pew and look at the cross he was looking at when God spoke to him.My favorite part of the day was at the church bu...

This is a prayer that he wrote: LORD, Make me an instrument of Thy peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow LOVE Where there is injury, PARDON Where there is doubt, FAITH Where there is despair, HOPE Where there is darkness, LIGHT And where there is sadness, JOY O Divine Master, Grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled, as to CONSOLE. O Divine Master, Grant that I may not so much seek to be understood, but to UNDERSTAND.* O Divine Master, Grant that I may not so much seek to be loved, as to LOVE.* For it is in GIVING, that we RECEIVE For it is in PARDONING, that we are PARDONED And it is in DYING **, that we are born into ETERNAL LIFE Amen.

Perugia-Assisi, in marcia per i diritti Venticinque chilometri di pace
2007-10-06 16:22:00 - Una mobilitazione straordinaria. L'elenco delle organizzazioni che parteciperanno domani alla Marcia della Pace è lungo ben undici pagine. Sono tutte associazioni molto diverse tra loro ma accomunate dalla volontà di far parte del fiume umano che si snoderà da Perugia ad Assisi, chiedendo "Tutti i diritti umani per tutti". Quella in programma domani è la 17esima edizione, nata nel 1961 da un'idea dell'intellettuale pacifista e antifascista Aldo Capitini. Le due "edizioni straordinarie", una del 16 maggio 1999 e l'altra del 12 maggio 2002, sono state dedicate rispettivamente alla guerra in Kossovo e alla questione mediorientale. Le organizzazioni partecipanti saranno oltre 200, provenienti da 55 paesi diversi, oltre ad esponenti laici e religiosi di movimenti, sindacati, organizzazioni, network nazionali e internazionali, giornalisti, enti locali, università e centri di ricerca. I venticinque chilometri che separano Perugia da Assisi sarà anche l'occasione per lanciare u...
