- A Blessed Christmas and a Happy New Year! [Fswb ®®sfc ©2 WWUIE OfflTO A Special Report on community service Brother Rafael de la Cruz, District deputy of Camarines Norte, has sent the following interesting and inspiring report ahout the activities in liis district, The National Secretary Knights of Columbus P.O. Box 510, Manila Dear Fr. Tantoco: In the furtherance of my duties as District Deputy, I have the honor to render a special report pertaining to Community Service rendered by Cama rines Norte Council No. 3748 at Daet, Camarines Norte. On July 30 to August 13, 1976, in clusive, the Council sponsored a prov ince-wide National Cottage Industries Development Authority (NACIDA) training for abaca craft. There were twenty (20) adult train ees. The trainers were sent by the NA CIDA Regional Office from Legaspi City. Training was held at the KC Club House at Daet. Materials and logistical support were furnished by the Council. Brother Marty. Vinzons was the Leader Trainer. A follow-up survey of the result of the training reveals that all those who finished the course are either gainful ly employed by local manufacturers or successfully selling their own products. In a joint activity the Council at Daet (Camarines Norte Council 3748) and the Council at Vinzons, Camarines Nor te (W. Q. Vinzons Council 6830) con ducted a Christian Formation Course on September 26 and October 10, 1976. The Course was conducted prepara tory to the Exemplification of the Sec ond and Third Degrees to be held in connection with the 25th Anniversary Celebration of the Camarines Norte Council. It is my observation that the employ ment of methods ether than the usual lectures conducted in a seminar fashion is very effective. We have utilized to the utmost those methods adopted by Wood Badge Training and Rovering in the Boy Scouts augmented by those we acquired from the Development Acad emy of the Philippines. Thus, in one full day and with less expense the Christian Formation Course was fully completed. Should there be a desire from that office for us to submit a derailed pro gram on the matter we shall be willing to do so. The District Deputy was the Course Leader, assisted by three (3) lawyers, one (1) radio commentator and the facilities personnel mostly composed of Court employees. We shall be looking forward to fur ther training of this kind and we cer tainly hope for and welcome suggestions from that office in order to make our training more fruitful and beneficial. Very fraternally yours, (Sgd.) RAFAEL DELACRUZ Judge District Deputy #58 WORLD NEWS • Pope Pius XU defended from misrepresentation charge • Foreign missionaries expelled * Bishop sentenced to 10 years * Sacred College is now 139 • Changes in the liturgy. Mr. Anthony Rhoades, an ac knowledged historian, is the author of a book titled "The Vatican in the Age of the Dictators", in which he refuted the charges made hy Herr Hochhuth .in a play, “The Represen tative", in which Pope Pius XII was pictured as money minded, cynical, selfish and indifferent to the Nazi persecution of the Jews. The 'book defended the Pope with records from the British Foreign Office and ^rom documents captured from the Germans. For his valuable work in vindicating the reputation of Pius XII, the Apostolic Delegate, Arch bishop Heim, at a ceremony in Lon don, invested Mr. Rhoades with the insignia of Knight Commander of the Order of St. Gregory. Mr. Rhoa des is not a Catholic, he is an Anglican. * * * The Pope’s nomination of the first North Vietnamese Cardinal in Hanoi has beer, followed by the ex pulsion of foreign missionaries. Priests and Bishops have been ar rested. * * * In South Africa and Rhodesia, the Church is the target of accusa tions and attacks for denouncing racism. Bishop Donald Lamont of Rhodesia was given a sentence of 10 years for aiding black people. * * * Of the 21 new Cardinals elected at the Consistory in Rome on May 1976, four are the firsts for New Zealand, Senegal, Uganda and Do minican Republic. Only three of the new Cardinals are over 70 years of age, the majority of the rest are between 50 and 60, and two are un der 50, the youngest being Archbi shop Jaime L. Sin of Manila. The new Cardinals brought the total of the Sacred College to 139, but the Cardinals who, at present, are qua lified to vote for a new Poe, are 99 only because those over 80 years are disqualified. * '* * Pope Paul has criticized tradi tionalist Catholics for "obstinately" clinging to the old latin liturgy, as well as progressives who are cele brating home-made liturgies. The Pope asserted that “the time has come for the people of God to prove ther intelligence and obedience. We must sing in chorus." The Pope condemned "obstinate and irreverent longing after types of worship which were "suited to times past,—and also concerned the so called “creativity" which is no less irreverent. Neither will work towards building a true spirituality for future generations or towards that fundamental unity of spirit and action willed by Christ for his Church.” UU0RD5 TO RER1ER1BER The foundation of all true sympathy, and that which makes it universal, is love. The best of men can offer human tenderness without understanding the mystery of pain and tears. But when one comes to the love of Christ, one finds both the tenderness of the human and the com prehensiveness of the Divine. In Him alone is united sympathy and the understanding of the mystery of pain. Many men have a heart, but they lack the mind to em brace the mystery. On the one hand there can be nar row good men and, on the other hand, iron hearted philantropist, but in Christ, the tender heart and the Divine knowledge combine. (Bishop Fulton Sheen). * * * The practical weakness of the vast mass of modern pity for the poor and the oppressed is precisely that it is mere pity; but pity is pitiful, but not respectful. Men feel that the cruelty to the poor is a kind of cruelty to animals. They never feel it is injustice to equals, nay, it is trea chery to comrades. This dark, scientific pity, this brutal pity, has an elemental sincerity of its own, but it is en tirely useless for all end of social reforms. (Chesterton.) • * • Obscenity can exist only when sexual events are seen from the outside, from the spectator’s point of view. This is the crux cf the pornography problem, pornography be ing obscenity made public, whether in literature, by en actment in a night club or stage, or by painting, photo graphy and movies. • One may be completely uninhibited sexuality and still, object to current representations of sexual acts in the mo vies and on the stage. Standards of morality are one thing, standards of decorum are another. There is nothing inmoral about changing one’s clothes or evacuating one’s bowels, but these are functions for which people in our culture demand privacy. Love, too, needs privacy. (S.I. Hayakawa, former President of San Francisco State Col lege). ♦ ♦ • / am the Light, and you did not'see Me; I am the Way, and you did not follow Me; I am the Truth, and you did not believe Me; I am the life, and you did not seek. Me; I am the Master, and you do not heed Me; I am yowr God, and you do not pray to Me; 1 am your close Friend, and you do not love Me; If you are unhappy, d(> not blame Me. November-December, 1976 Page 3 IN SHAKESPEARE’S JU LIUS CAESAR, Mark Anthony is represented as speaking at the bier of the great Roman. “The evil that men do,” he said, “lives after them, the good is oft interred with their bones.” Whatever may have been the case in the Rome of that time, Anthony’s words do not seem to be true in our day. Certainly not at “Necrological Services” or even at Requiem Masses. In the orations delivered on these oc casions the deceased is unfailing ly enrolled among the immor tals. This is all the more re markable at Masses, in view of the liturgical prescription: “At the funeral Mass there should be MAO TSETUNG Coup de grace It was the Cultural Revolution that gave the coup de grace to the Cath olic Church in China, anu let it not be forgotten it wa3 a typically Mao ist program. It is interesting to con sider it in conjunction with the re cent fall of the Shanghai Mafia, and to note how thin was that veneer of unity and peace which some Mao eulo gists found so impressive. The Cul tural Revolution was launched as a movement to end the eclipse which Mao had suffered as a consequence of the failure of the Great Leap Forward, namely of the disaster he brought on the country by amateurish economic measures. The architects of the Cultural Revolution were Mao And The Catholic Church a short homily, but never a eulogy.” The comments which followed the death of Mao Tse-Tung partook of the nature of the contemporary Ne crological Service. In fact this pre sen-, writer was trembling lest some priest of Maoist' leanings might celebrate a funeral Mass for the deceased Chairman and deliver him his halo on the spot. Among the achievements of Mao which will not contribute to his ca nonization is the fact that he suc ceeded, as far as any human power could succeed, in stamping out the Catholic Church in mainland China. On October 1, 1949 when the triumph ant Mao proclaimed the Chinese Peo ple’s Republic, the Catholic Church in China had about. 3,500,000 mem bers, scattered through 144 ecclesias-tical territories: 20 archdiocese^ 85 dioceses and 39 apostolic prefectures. The hostile attitude of the new re gime manifested itself from the very beginning. Under pretext of eliminat ing foreigh influence, the Patriotic Catholic Association was established for the purpose of destroying Catho licity from within. Target: foreign missionaries The war on the Church began with an attack on foreign missionaries. Accused of being agents of imperial ism, missionaries and sisters were Under the guise of a fair name, the Cultural Revolution as Mao called it, came about as a party whip on Catholicity, an all-out campaign of extermination. arrested, tried, imprisoned and finally expelled. When the foreigners had been eliminated, the government turned its attention to the Chinese clergy to detach them from the Holy See. There were heroic examples of resistance; but there were also cases of episcopal consecration conferred without the Holy See's approval. Ma nifestations of the true faith became rarer. Finally in 1966 the so called Cultural Revolution (Communists have a genius for calling foul things by fair names) unleashed hoards of fanatical students upon the country, bent, on wiping out every vestige, not only of Catholicity, but of all religion. himself, his wife Chiang Ching, Lin Piao and Chen Po-ta. Those others recently headlined with Madame Moo were lesser members of the plot. The Cultural Revolution was a campaign of extermination. It resulted in many thousands of deaths, cost, the country incalculable sums in economic loss, reached the proportions of a civil war and only succeeded in re-establishing Mao by what was practically a mili tary coup. What has become of these loyal instruments of Mao’s return to power? Chen Po-ta, the brain of the Cultural Revolution, was killed during it by forces that did not take kindly (o the tyranny of the mob. Lin Piao, Mao’s heir apparent, was shot down while in flight after an abortive at tempt to overthrow the leader. Chiang Ching, Mao’s wife, (with, according to latest reports, her two daughters) is under arrest. Other members of the Shanghai clique are also in jail. When the Cultural Revolution was in full ewing its victims were de graded by being forced to put on dunce caps and to parade be fore howling mobs of students. Now the shoe is on the other foot. T h < newspapers since Chiang Ching’s. downfall have pictured stu dents marching through the streets carrying grotesque effigies of the fallen. Truly this is a strange peace and a strange unity that Mao be queathed to China. His staunchest supporters who rescued him from ob Page 4 scurity and restored him to power are jailed and perhaps killed. Should Catholics rejoice that their bitterest persecutors (the authors of the Cul tural Revolution) are now over thrown? It would be premature. First, because the struggle for pow er in China is not over. Chiang Ching and her followers have lost a battle; it is not clear that they have lost the war. Secondly, from a religious point of view it is not likely that Hua will be very different from Chiang Ching. He might possibly be more civilized. We can only hope so. Not much sign of life After the fury of the Cultural Re volution had mitigated somewhat, re lations with other nations were re sumed and certain feeble gestures were made towards religious tole rance. However, visitors to China have been unable to find much sign of life. There is a Catholic Church in Peking which was opened for wor ship in November 1971, and is fre quented by a few foreign diplomats, students and tourists. But there are no churches in other cities of China. How many Christians are there in China today? It is known from va rious sources that there are some who hold to the faith. But they have to practise it clapdestinely. Of the nearly 3,000 Chinese priests who were active in 1948, according to careful calculations no more than 500 or 600 remain. And these are completely de prived of the exercise of their minis try. Of the bishops legitimately con secrated before 1954, about ten still survive; some of them have been in prison since 1958 and nothing has been heard of them for years. The Society of Jesus calculates that there are at present 123 Jesuits in main land China: 83 priests and 40 bro thers. Most of them are in prison. Nor is there any immediate hope to replenish the dwindling corps of min isters of the Gospel. For 15 years there has been no seminary in opera tion in China. No distinction made Mao hated all religion. He said, "It is necessary to rid ourselves... of religion, the’ capitalists, and autocra cy, these evil demons of the empire." He saved his speeial hostility for Christianity, but like his intellectual forebear, Karl Marx, he did not know what Christianity was. He simply saw it-as the religion of the nations that had plundered and bullied China for centuries: mainly England, France and Germany. He looked on the for eign missionaries as the emissaries of imperialism, and transferred his hat red of “Christian" nations to Chris tianity itself. One Chinese scholar said, and this would reflect Mao’s thinking, “Chris tians multiplied their works of char ity. but at the same time poisoned millions of people with opium, and with their terrible weapons piled up millions of Chinese corpses, becoming prosperous and powerful while impo verishing China." It should hardly be necessary to point out that the "Christians" who piled up corpses were not the same as the Christians who piled up works cf charity. But Ma0 did not make the distinction and ‘.t is not surprising in view of his hatred that he killed Christians (killing came easy to him). But what is surprising is that Cath olics can admire him. The newspapers of our Catholic Philippines were ful some in praise of him when he died, and no one would have guessed that under him and by him, that Catholic Church we profess to love so much, was virtually obliterated. It was said of him that he belonged to the ages. That is sure. The same can be said of Peter the Great and Attila the Hun. The same would have been said of Hitler had he succeeded, as he almost did. The difference be tween Hitler and Mao is that Mao was successful. Mao was in striking contrast to Sun Yat-sen and Chiang Kai-shek, themselves both Christians, who knew the difference between the conduct of “Christians” and Christian conduct. China on a new course Now that Mao is dead and China seems* embarked on a new course, what is the future of the Catholic Church there? Last year 420 mission aries of the evangelical churches met in Manila to discuss the future of their churches in China. The tone of the congress was surprisingly opti mistic. “The curtain which fell years ago ha3 been lifted little by little. The closed doors are now less tightly bolted. Slowly this living Church is becoming visible.” Certainly if Pro testant missionaries find it possible to penetrate the mainland, Catholics will too. Everybody is watching Chi na at this time and wondering what the future will be. What will the pol icy of China under Hua Kuo Feng be? Of course he will adhere to the “inviolable doctrir.: of Mao.” He has to say that. But such assertions, like similar assertions about Karl Marx, can be integrated into the most di verse programs. Any' Chinese policy has to have Mao’s sacred patronage. But having invoked his name, Hua will be free to pursue his own course, as will any group that might dislodge him, and using the same potent name. —REV. LEO A. CULLUM, S.J. November-December, 1976 Page 5 OLD GORIO disbelieved his senses when the bos in which he rode stopped under a canopy of overhanging branches of hud dled mango trees. He heard the bus driver say that they were already in Barrio Blnaratan. It was a little over forty years since he had left the barrio, and there had been no gravelled road yet that led from the pobladon to the barrio; the passageway had been a rutty cart traiL Memories of childhood The dawn mists still curled their way under his jacket, and somehow he felt the coldness to be akin to what he had experienced in the va rious islands of the state of Hawaii —first in Lanai, then in Oahu, then in Maui. The mists of memory cleared, and he remembered his early youth when, by this time on Christmas eve, he would be out on the fields to pas ture his shivering carabao. Was he really back in the place where the sunlight had first opened his infant eyes, or was it a mirage he was see ing? It seemed incredible that in the space of less than one day, the is lands of Hawaii changed themselves into a figment of his memory, and his memories of his childhood were resus citated by the joyous clangor of pes tles striking the hollows of mortars and their powdery contents of diket or glutinous rice, the coiled branches of soaring smoke from several twig fires with which children warmed themselves, the boastful crows of gamecocks. It seemed, however, that - in his childhood and youth in Barrio Binaratan, the noise and smoke and fragrance of Christmas eve dawn were more intense and widespread. Old Gorio found it rather difficult to stand on both legs steadily, after sitting for ten hours in the airplane and another ten hours in the cramp ing bus from Manila to his birthplace. Eagerly he told the conductor of the bus to pick oyt bis two luggages from the many luggages and bags and other loads; a pape¥ bag was gripped tight by one hand protec tively, for this contained some of the things of value to him and to his re latives as gifts. His fellow passengers, several of them also balikbayan like him, volubly wanted to have their luggages brought down too. Some of them spoke in their pidgin or kappakai English, others in their native language. The sight of the bus had meantime attracted several of the barrio’s res idents who were up and about, some of them pausing from their pounding of glutinous rice or from warming themselves, and running lickety split to see who the passengers were. Reanion with kin Old Gorio wondered how he would be able to recognize his younger bro ther Inso, and how Inso himself would recognize his “Hawaiian” bro ther. Back in Hawaii, he had been told that those who lived in the Phil ippines tended to look older than their years, the heat of the sun and the wetness of rain seemingly draining them of vigor and turning their skin into cracks or wrinkles. He himself had looks youngish enough to belie his sixty-seven years, probably be cause of the balmy weather of Ha waii. But Old Gorio's misgivings about how to recognize his brother proved needless. Amidst the instant bedlam of shrieks and laughter and sobs marking the ritual of reunion, Old Gorio and his brother Inso saw and instinctively knew they were the long separated kin. They embraced each other self-consciously, and let their tears add to the still unbanished mis tiness of the dawn, just as the Christ mas sun started to clamber up the low mountains to the east of Barrio Binaratap. Streaking after the menfolk were the women of different ages and chil dren in jackets or sweaters. “I have five grandchildren now, Kabagin," Old Inso told his brother. “You wrote us you never married— is that true?” “Yes, Kabngia," Old Gorio nodded. At any rate, he had not while in Ha waii totally forgotten his kin. Occa sionally he would send money which Old Inso requested, for the education of his children. “Merry Christmas!” Very soon Old Tasia, Old Inso’s wife, two of their children and the five grandchildren, surrounded the two brothers and all that Old Gorio could see for the next five minutes' was a merry-go-round of tawny faces with gleaming teeth, all he could hear was the piped "Merry Christmas!” spoken in English by the three grand children who hung on to his hands and jacket, he almost lost his balance. He answered their greetings joyfully, and he remembered that throughout his stay in Hawaii he had not had A NATIVE CHRISTMAS Page 6 CROSS Old Gorio could hardly believe his eyes of the mdny changes he saw in -the barrio upon his return after over forty years of absence. He remembered Hawaii, but he had no yearning anymore to go back. as riotous a Christmas eve as this. Old Gorio had thought that he would have to suffer walking along muddy or. rutty trails to get to his brother Inso's house. It pleased and surprised him to see that they walked instead along winding and branching streets, and that the trails in his me mory were nowhere to be found. His two nephews Ineantime hoisted one each of his luggages onto strong shoulders. He did not want to let go of the paper bag, but the chil dren’s insistent hands grabbed it from his hold. Beautiful bungalows “I didn’t know there are such beautiful bungalows as these!’’ Old Gorio exclaimed when he passed by several of these gleaming dwellings. “Why, have the rich people from town come to live here?’’ ''They’re the homes of ‘Hawaiians’ like you, Kabagia!" Old Inso laughed. •'The pensioners like you live like rich people indeed! See, they have water tanks. They can have showers any time of day. They have beautiful toilet rooms, with colorful tiles!” “And what do they do here?” Old Gorio was curious. “They have businesses, Kobagw," Old Inso replied. “They have jeepneys for passenger transportation. They have well tended farms. One or two have gone into house building... You should see how they can buy the best food too! When it pleases their fancy, they and we agree to slaughter a cow—and it’s a feast day then!” Old Gorio scratched his head. He remembered how several of these pen sioners, back in Hawaii, had looked seedy airing themselves at Ala Park in Honolulu, say. But here in Barrio Binaratan, they had cheerful bunga lows to live in! He expected to see most of the houses still built of bamboo and co gon grass, but he saw only two or three, even as he spread his sight to take in the entire barrio within the orbit of his vision. If the people could afford to have houses of wood and galvanized iron, then they are now fairly well. off, uniike most of the barrio folk he had left forty yean ago, he thought. Even Old Inso’s house pleased his brother. Why, it could compare with the fancy-looking bungalows of the "Hawaiianos.” So then his brother had managed to save money, for what he had mailed when he was still in Hawaii could be enough only for his nephew’s tuition fees. He felt some abrupt remorse over his stinginess, but that was all past and he ob served his brother to be happy wel coming him. Inside the comfortable house, Old Gorio was introduced to his kin. “These are your two nephews— they’re both vocational teachers, one in the town and the other in the ca pital of the province,” Old Inso said pridefully and thankfully. "Teachers! Good, good!” Old Gorio grinned as he shock hands with his nephews, forgetting that they had in troduced themselves when they greeted him beside the bus. “Your third nephew is in Manila. He’s taking up engineering. His two brothers help him with his expenses,” Old Inso said. Old hometown delicacies Old Gorio nodded approvingly, rub bing his hands together. "I smell the odor of beef being cooked!” he could not help observe. “That’s for breakfast, Uncle,” said a nephew. He inhaled several times, as though he was already savoring the taste of the stew, and imagining how he could very well enjoy two bowlfuls of the dish, which he had tasted only rarely while in Hawaii. Old«Gorio turned to her sister-inlaw Old Tasia. “You’ll be baking tit pig, Ipag? I haven’t tasted it for many, many years!” “We’li bake some the size of in fants’ pillows, Kayong!" Old Tasia grinned, for she had prepared the dough and was just waiting for the banana leaves to be gathered. “Good, good!” Old Gorio laughed. “See, I still have most of my teeth.” At the same time he stroked the heads of three of the children who leaned against him and sat on his lap. They fingered his jacket, at the same time giggling among themselves. “You may want to change your tra veling clothes, Uncle,” said a nephew. There’s that room we’ve set aside for you.” Old Gorio remembered Hawaii ab ruptly. He felt that he was in an alien land, surrounded by alien- faces. But he was surprised that he had no yearning anymore for the islands he had thought would be his homeland. Silently he, thanked God that he could again see the soil that had giv en him the fruit3 that sustained his life as a child. —BENJAMIN M. PASCUAL November-December, 1976 Page 7 ON GRIEVING OVER THE DEAD THE RIGHT MEASURE By Jaime L. Cardinal Sin AT A TIME like this, during funeral Mass such as this, it is customary for the celebrant to deliver a eulogy. This was what I had originally planned to do, but I changed my mind. For I realized I could not say anything about Don Roman that others had not said much more elo quently than I could. I shall, therefore, confine myself to saying that Don Roman was blessed in a manner that few other men were: he lived to a ripe old age, se cure in the love of his wife and his family; he lived a rich and full life; he made sure that his children would grow up in the iove and fear of the Lord. And now, he has gone back to his Maker, and he is united with our Father in heaven. In the final analysis, can anyone ask for more? Dor. Roman, I repeat, was blessed in a way that few men are. I personally have no worries about him now. You, the living My business right now is with you, the living; you, the men and women and the children he left behind. My worry is that you. his loving wife, and you, his grieving children and children-in-law, will take his passing very hard. And it is to you all now that I address these words: Sorrow, as you pointed out so co gently in the obituaries that you pub lished in the newspapers, is a human reaction. It is only natural that you should grieve because someone you love has passed on. But the man you grieve for,, he has transcended that which is purely human and has be come a spirit, free and joyous, libe rated from the cares and sorrows of this world. When we weep for Don Roman, therefore, we are applying a yardstick that is human and natural to some thing that is supernatural and spi ritual. And this is what we should not do. The right measure Everything that is measurable must be measured by the righ^ yardstick. We do not go to a grocery store and ask for three gar.tas of meat. Neither do we go to a textile store and ask for three liters of denim cloth. If we are to cvercome our grief, therefore, we must take care that we use the right measure. Don Roman has gone to his just reward in heaven; his spirit has' shed off the receptacle of flesh and bone that housed him in this world. When we think of him now, it should be, not in the context of how he was in life, but how he is in his present state, close to the bo som of God our Father. And if we think of him in this manner, how can we be sorrowful ? We can only rejoice. Sorrow, in this case, cannot be any thing but selfish. If we weep, it can only be because we are sorry for our selves, because we miss him, because we will never see him again. But I say that if we truly loved him—and I do not for a moment doubt that your love for him is true and sincere —then we should stop thinking of our selves and be happy for him. After all, that is what Love is—subordinat ing self and thinking only of the wel fare of the one beloved. The Butterfly Before I close, my dear brothers and sisters in Christ, allow me to tell you a story—a story which no doubt some of you have heard before, but a story nonetheless which is so rele vant that it can bear constant repe tition. It is the story of a caterpillar which was walking down the road one morn ing and then came across the skin of another caterpillar. Taking a clos-' er look, he recognized the skin as that of his brother. The caterpillar started to crv. "My brother is dead," he sobbed. "My bro ther is dead." And his cries brought all the other caterpillars to the scene, and all of them started weeping, fill ing the air with their lamentation. But, in their grief, they did not notice that, hovering above them, was a’ butterfly, beautiful in his jnanysplendpred colors. The caterpillars did not know it, but it was their brother, free at last from the prison of its own skin, wonderful to behold, beau tiful and happy. My friends: Don Roman is that butterfly. By his death? he has been born to a new life. As St. Theresa said on her deathbed, "I die because I do. not die.” The same holds true for Don Roman. He has died so that he may enioy everlasting life. God bless you. And remember, I love you all very dearly. (Homily delivered by His Eminence. Jaime Cardinal L. Sin, Archbishop of Manila, during the funeral Mass for Roman Mabanta Sr., held at the Sa cred Heart Parish Church on Sep tember 28,1976 at 8 00 a.m.) Page 8 CROSS Raising “Hito” is Easy, Profitable Raising catfish or “hito" is easy and profitable. It thrives in streams, rivers, marshes, rice fields, swamps, lakes, irrigation canals or in ponds. According to the bureau of fisheries and aquatic resources (BFAR), a 50-square-meter fishpcnd containing about 5,000 cat fish will yield about 7,142 kilos of “hito". At the current market price of P13 per kilo this yield will give the catfish raiser a clean earning of about P92.000. In culturing "hito" Ponciano C.

Ducey was elected to the number two position in the order in October 1966 and served until he reached the mandatory retirement age of 70. A member of San Salvador Council No. 1 in New Haven, Conn., he joined the Supreme Council in 1928, serving as tho assistant director of the Columbian Squires, director of the Service Department (1985) and assistant supreme secretary (1964), before being elected to the board of directors in October 1966 and at the Bame time given the responsibilities of the deputy supreme knight. Wolff joined Peterborough Coun cil No. 798 in 1946 and served three terms as grand knight of that unit. He later served three terms as dis trict deputy and also as trade war den, state advocate, state treasurer and state secretary before being elected state deputy of Ontario (1961-63). He was chosen master of the fourth degree Jn district one in Champlain province in 1968 and voted to the board of directors in 1967. gave the following tips: —The size of the pond may be 50 square meters or more depend ing on the capital investment available. The fishpond should be located in low and flat areas which are accessible to transpor tation. Soil must be clay or clay loam capable of holding water during the culture period. —The fishpond should be con structed in an area where there is sufficient water supply. The depth of the water in the pond should be one meter or more but the depth may be increased as the fingerlings grow. —The raising period depends on the size of the fingerlings to be stocked. The biggest finger lings measure from seven to 10 centimeters; medium, five to six centimeters. The small finger lings can be harvested after five or six months of culture.

November-December, 1976 Page 11 * The essence of a Za-Zen medita tion is: no thought! * The Went is over-run by thoughts: from, the TV set at home; from the radio in the car; from the newspa pers; from the billboards; from the neon signs, flashing in the dark; from films; from the mail, pouring over the desk. * The West is overwhelmed by so many thoughts, by such swift change, that it can no longer absorb the vo lume of ideas. This is the burden of the best-seller: Future Shock. * Za-Zen is a return to absolute stillness. * It is just possible that this con tribution of the East to the West might be an answer to many of our troubles. * Certainly it is calculated to stave off many a nervous break-down. * I made a Zen retreat at the Be nedictine Priory, on Marikina Heights, under the direction of Father Hugo Lassalle, S.J. * At the age of 77, this tall, frail man has the calm and vigor of an oriental sage. * Born in Germany, he has spent half a century in Japan. He survived Hiroshima. To western audiences, he lectures on global peace, on missionary problems, and on the Hiroshima ex perience. * But his real specialty is Za-Zen —a Buddhist form of meditation— which for centuries has led to Enlight enment. * 37 of us assembled before 7:30 a.m., on the first morning of the re treat. Forty-eight hours later we were 17. * When the Zen retreat ended we were wiser, deeper, with a profound sense of community — and yet we never knew who any of the others were! * We never spoke to one another. There were nunB from three different religious orders, and four lay-women. Three of the lay-women persevered to the end. * Father Lassalle is one of the holy men of the East. His speech was brief and simple. He never talked of God. . * The training was rigorous. We were to practice recollection, not to think about anything, a loving toge therness of heart. * The master spoke to us once each morning, and once in the afternoon. All other time was devoted to medita tion. * No free time. No distractons. No speaking. During meditation a cer tain seated posture was observed. * We sat in the lotus position, on a low mat, about four inches thick. The legs are crossed. The knees touch the floor. The spine is rigidly erect. * The head is balanced upright, weightless. If the head is inclined, it is heavy. But when it is erect, it is completely weightless. . * Eyes open. Fastened to a epot about three feet away. The left hand rests in the right hand. The thumb tips touch each other, lightly. ZAZEN! By I Elizabeth Earley, IlSCS I * When the lotus position is pro perly taken, the left foot rests upon the right knee, and the right foot upon the left knee. * Beginners feel pain, in joints and muscles, from this posture. Those who are experienced testify that the body floats, alert, without strain. * Once the lotus position is mas tered, one may remain perfectly awake, completely calm, concentrated, for long periods. In Zen retreats, in Japan, the retreatants do not sleep for six days. They have no bedroom, and no bed. * In the lotus position, the whole body is loose — capable of swinging lightly from side to side. * Some Zen contemplatives sway lightly — like a pendulum — for a few minutes, at the beginning of their meditation. Then the body settles freely in the up-right position. * Buddhists consider one point in the body to be the center of the nerves —a point where all force should be concentrated—about two inches below the navel. * Some Zen techniques teach the disciple to concentrate on this cen ter. Father Lassalle did not suggest this. * Oddly enough, the disciplined lo tus position — the straight spine, the open eyes, the crossed legs — does not make the person concerned with his body. It places the body in the service of the spirit. * In silence we were to enter into ourselves.... to think of nothing.... in a downward vertical movement. * In several days of silence, one might reach the bottom of one's soul. * An invisible relationship is creat ed among the retreatants — some thing beyond time and space. Medi tating together, silently, in a group, one becomes closer to the others than if all were speaking. * Silence, even at meals. No read ing. No talking. During a retreat one should eat less than normal — about 80%. The whole body shares in the asceticism. * Zen is a hard form of prayer. It must be continuous. It involves regu lar practice. In Zen monasteries, the monks pray night and day. * The Enllgthenment, which is at tained by Zen, is not necessarily su pernatural mysticism. It might be profound understanding — an in tuitive grasp of all things. * The msthodls valid for disposing the soul for Christian contemplation. * But we are not used to notthlnking about anything I * More than 700 years ago, one of the masters of Zen taught his follow ers to: "think the non-thinking." * This is not blankness — blit emptln'ess—which is a fullness, because all disturbance is dissolved. * There is great peace in emptiness. * In Zen, if a thought comes, one does not drive it away... but neither does one go on with it. As soon as a person decides to pursue the thought —he is out of Zen. * But hs must not fight the thought, either. Conflict drives one out of Zen * The great natural model of a Japanese Zen Buddhist is Mount Fuji-san, which never moves. Around the great mountain snow, sun and rain constantly change like shadows—but the mount stands still and silent, un moved. The Zen Buddhist maintains that this is the only way to come to one's real self. * The Za-Zen meditation uses a Page 12 CROSS breathing technique. We counted our breaths — ten in, and ten out — deep breathing, but not forced. This helps circulation of the blood, keeps the mind alert. * Zen monasteries are always cold, but the monks never feel cold when they are praying. * Zen tries to achieve harmony of spirit through perfect bodily control. It4ftes the body to help the spirit. * A time-honored technique for emptying the mind is the use of a koan. This is a problem, which has no solution. It can never be solved by thinking. * One famous koan: listen to the sound of one hand, clapping. * In the original, essential Zen, one simply sits — still and silent —* let ting the thoughts come and go, with out attending to them. * A Zen retieat presents a cultural problem: it Ib not norma! for us to sit so straight, or to empty our minds. * It is especially difficult for intel lectuals, who base all prayer on reason. * We can know what Zen is only by experience. It resembles the mys tical side of Christianity. *.Zen masters sometimes under stand the Chistian mystics better than many Christians do. * Father Lassalle says that he understood the love of God, for the first time, through Zen. * Spiritual direction is necessary, in Zen. The disciple Bees hlB master everv day. In this, it Ib like an Ignatian retreat. •.In a Za-Zen retreat, the disciple depends on the master to oversee his method. If the disciple grows drowsy, or careless in posture, the master strikes him with a Btick. This is a sign of interest, of a favor, of love. * In the Ignatian retreat, if the exercitant iB tempted to shorten Ms meditation, he should prolong it. This resembles Zen. * But in Zen concentration, there is no thinking, no willing. * In Zen, the submerging vertical movement, down to the ground of the soul s called: samar. * The deepest point, the acme, is the place of union with, God. * The signs, of samar are three: The person takes no notice of his surroundings. He does not feel pain. Times passes, without notice. . * In damar, the person makes no effort to hear or to see. He has no thoughts. He is in perfect quiet, in deep peace. • * Zen is the prayer of one who wishes to come to the last reality, which is God. It aims at union with God, who is simple. * After each half-hour of meditar tion in the lotus position, the retreat ants would walk slowly around the room, in continuous procession, for fifteen minutes. * It Is possible to maintain the Zen attitude, throughout this phase of the exercise. * .The movement is rhythmic, ab solutely continuous. One balances first on one foot, then on the other without ever standing still. * The eyes are open, cast down. The hands are held at the waist, one hand within the other. * One then resumes the lotus po sition. * With Zen, a westerner will ask: "What will I get out of itt" * They will never know, unless they practice it I * There are three positive effects: One acquiree a power of medita tion. One increases in insight, and in intuition. One may achieve Enlightenment. * Enlightenment is union with God. * Some westerners use Zen to stop distraction of mind, to establish spi ritual concentration. * In real Zen, one would have no purpose like this. * But it is true that those who practice Zen weather emotional crises better than others. * Zen enlightens the heart. It is a mystical experience. * It is fundamentally an experience of the Absolute. * A Zen-Buddhist discovers some thing like the absolute unity of all things deep within himself — a one ness with the universe — a harmony which transcends the petty discriptions of our'practical living. * Wise men of all ages have come to the sense of a pervading divine presence, of a providence that gov erns all, and of themselves as part of it. * This realization gives new mean ing to the sentence in the goBpel of John: "The World enlightens every man that comes into this world." * Much has been said, in recent years, about developing an Asian theology. * Few people ever mention asceticomystical theology — in which Asia could make a,special contribution. * Father Hugo Lassalle, S.J., In hiR book, Zen—Way of Enlightenment, shows deep understanding of the Asian ways of prayer and of the psy chology of the Asian approach to life, to health, to power. * In this he is strangely like Tho/nas Merton, who died while attending a conference of specialists on oriental, spirituality. * The precise interest of Thomas Merton was Zen BuddMsm. —From the Communicator Compliments of Carnation Philippines, Inc.
