Road to Healing – Lenten Journey 2014Day 38: Play Now: Direct Link for Download (right click and save link as...) Our first parish was in a town called Cupertino about 50 miles south of San Francisco, an area that was developing its identity as Silicon Valley as we were developing our identity as a family. All of our children were born here. A pastor's family is always blessed with having so many aunts and uncles. The kind people of the parish and our family engaged in what I call reciprocal-adoption. It was a special time in our life, and very rich with “family” especially considering that both my and my wife's parents, brothers, sisters and their children all live well over 400 miles away in Southern California. My brother found every opportunity he could to come and visit with us and his nephews. He'd take the 1 hour airplane trip up the coast and we'd be on the receiving end to pick him up at San Jose Airport. Many times we'd get there a bit early and park our car at the end of the runway and watch the planes take off and land. We'd do it for the boys but I think it was obvious who got the most excitement out of these excursions. And then, when that big Southwest airplane rumbled the air above us and landed down aways, I'd point to it and tell the kids, “There's Uncle Haig! Let's go pick him up.” We'd drive over to the terminal in time to watch him come off the plane. After the weekend – or sometimes we'd be lucky and get him a bit longer – we'd take Uncle Haig to the airport. This time we'd walk him all the way to the gate (yes, this is a bit of pre-9/11 history), say our good-byes and watch the plane back out. San Jose Airport was perfect for plane watching. We'd get in the car and go to the end of the runway. As the plane took off from the tarmac to the sky we'd wave, “Bye Uncle Haig!” Now when the kids were very small, when we'd get home they'd be playing in the yard and their sharp senses would spot a plane high up in the sky. They would get so happy and excited as they pointed to the small object in the sky, “Look dad. Look mom. There's Uncle Haig.” In response to their cuteness, we'd play along with an assuring, “There he goes… wave to him…” At various times – perhaps days or even weeks later – between visits, our kids would spot a plane say with the same enthusiasm as moments after the flight took off, “There's Uncle Haig.” And with their little hands they'd wave to the plane high up in the sky. It was on one of his visits that my brother figured out that our children thought that he was in a perpetual state of flight! They would say goodbye to their uncle at the airport… He'd get on the plane… then the next time they'd see him he'd be coming off the plane. For all they knew, he was always in flight until the next time they'd see him, once again coming off the plane. Think of it in terms of a 3 or 4 year old. Without the knowledge that planes land elsewhere to deliver and pick up passengers, you would assume the flight has a circular route, beginning and ending with you. Why would you think otherwise? As we mature, our world view changes and our understanding of the world develops as we connect the dots between events, places, people and feelings. And soon we, as did my kids, have a new understanding. Uncle Haig got on a plane to come to see us… he lives somewhere else… he needs to return to that somewhere else… and we look forward to his next visit.* As much as you don't want your children to grow up with a skewed perception of reality, there is something to be said about the naiveté and innocence of their primal understandings of life. Francis Bacon has said, “Knowledge is power.” Now it remains for us to understand what that power is. As we are moving forward on this Road to Healing, we have matured in many ways. Through our meditations and prayers, we have connected dots between our illnesses, their causes and our control (or lack of control) over the variety of factors in the healing process. But understanding doesn't necessarily mean control over events. Rather, it means reconciliation and control over our self. Understanding that the plane doesn't stay up in the sky forever, doesn't mean we control the flight nor do we have the power to alter its properties. The power is in our ability to reconcile and take control of our self. Here is a prayer for this day of our journey. It is an ancient Armenian blessing, appealing to the Holy Cross along with a simple meditation: The Cross of Christ can be understood or misunderstood. Its understanding does not change reality, but brings reconciliation and control over our lives. Keep us in peace, O Christ our God, under the protection of your holy and precious cross; save us from our enemies, visible and invisible, and count us worthy to glorify you with thanksgiving, with the Father and the Holy Spirit, now and forever. Amen. I look forward to meeting with you again tomorrow on the Road to Healing. *Disclaimer: Space and time were not altered, skewed or changed as a result this blog.

Road to Healing – Lenten Journey 2014Day 24: Play Now: Direct Link for Download (right click and save link as...) Yesterday I left you with verses from a prayer by St. Gregory of Narek. Narekatsi, as he is called, was monk of the Church at the turn of the first millennium. The monastery of Narek was near Lake Van, in one of the most scenic and serene areas surrounding the holy Mt. Ararat. He was a mystic, a monk, a priest, a poet and a man. He wrote prayers and lead mediations, focusing on the plight of humanity as understood through his suffering, and found a healing joy by humbling himself in the awesome presence of God. Narekatsi's prayers are known to have healing powers. Next to the Gospels, Narekatsi's writings are the most revered by the Armenian people and have been translated into several languages. I wish to continue today on our Road to Healing with another excerpt from the saint's sacred poetry. The prayer is recited within the Church with an introductory statement, “From the depth of my heart, a conversation with God.” As I read these lines today meditate not only on the words, but on a possible conversation you would have with the Creator, with Infinite Love. What might that conversation contain? Would it be a shopping list of spiritual ointments and sanctified medicines? Or something else? If your conversation with God begins from your heart, there is only one way it can travel. Give yourself a chance to listen, absorb and then engage in that conversation yourself. From St. Gregory of Narek, Lord, my Lord, grantor of gifts, root of goodness, ruler of all equally, creator of all from nothing, glorified, awesome, awe inspiring, beyond understanding, dreadful, mighty, stern, unbearable, unapproachable, incomprehensible, inconceivable, ineffable, invisible, unexaminable, untouchable, unsearchable, without beginning, outside of time, unclouded knowledge, bold vision, true being, exalted and humble, blessed existence, shadowless dawn, ray shining upon all, light professing to all, unwavering assurance, undisturbable calm, indelible seal, infinite image, witnessed name, taste of sweetness, cup of bliss, soul-nourishing bread, love in dark exile, unambiguous promise, covering most desirable, garment most protective, cloak most worthy, ornament most glorious, great help, trustworthy refuge, undiminishing grace, inexhaustible treasure, pure rain, glittering dew, universal cure, free healing, health restored, sublime spur, undeceiving call, good news for all, king who lifts up the slave, defender who loves the poor, giver of endless wealth, safe harbor, unyielding command, hope without bounds, long in vision, unsparing in generosity, just right hand that dispenses to all, impartial eye, voice of comfort, consoling tidings, harbinger of bliss, living name, finger of foresight, unstumbling start, sincere course, life-giving will, candid advice, unenvying honor, broad possibility, narrow restriction, track without trace, path without markers, image indescribable, quantity immeasurable, model inimitable, unparalleled compassion, inexhaustible mercy, humility celebrated, kiss of salvation. And more than these worthy epithets, dedicated to your Godliness, you who are blessed, praised, lauded, preached, evangelized, proclaimed, exalted, recounted, sought with unflagging desire, whatever your streams of sweetness bring us, shall be illustrated in these image-filled psalms, showing you joyful in my salvation, blessed Lord, as if a ravenous hunger had been relieved by a sumptuous feast, for you are glorified not because of some vain song of mine, but because you may accept these modest prayers as justification for granting your great salvation. This is Fr. Vazken, inviting you to join us tomorrow as we continue on the Road to Healing. Narekatsi translation by Thomas J. Samuelian Visit http://www.stgregoryofnarek.am/ to learn more.

Road to Healing – Lenten Journey 2014Day 23: Play Now: Direct Link for Download (right click and save link as...) A large envelope arrived in the mail yesterday. It was marked with the writing of a child. It was addressed to “Hopar,” an endearing term for uncle, from my six-year-old nephew Vartan. He was excited to share his lesson about Martin Luther King, Jr. with me. On a large card made out of construction paper, was his rendition of the Civil Rights Leader along with his narrative, written with thick marker pens. At the bottom of the note, he had two marking. They had nothing to do with the story of King, but everything to do with our journey. They were combination of lines – a vertical and horizontal line drawn perpendicular to one another, and two lines shooting out of the cross-point at 45 degree angles on each side. Underneath the symbol was written, “Wood symbol in Chinese.” Next to this figure was two of the same figure with the inscription, “Forest in Chinese.” The Chinese logograms appeared as a bonus message on my nephew's letter, but their arrival on this day of our Journey – the day after we took our eyes off of the horizon – was more than a fluke. It is the caveat to yesterday's message and the theme for today: Can't see the forest for the trees. Yesterday we moved our attention from the abstract and unseen reality beyond the horizon to the road below our feet, to the immediate functions of life. In so doing it might be easy to concentrate so much on the little things that we fail to notice, and subsequently we fail to understand, the intertwining of all of life's realities. We can't see the forest for the trees. When we are too close to a situation we need to step back and get a better perspective. It is easy to be over obsessed and consumed with our life-situations, especially if they are troubling and causing us hardship. Illness and disease are overwhelming, as are love-lost and hurtful-pasts. It is even comforting to bask in misery because it's close by and familiar. Meanwhile, the possibility of the unknown – the healing – and the risk involved to get there can be frightening. It means risking and opening ourselves to vulnerability. With this narrow outlook, we miss opportunities to connect with other life experiences and people to build the bigger reality of life. The happy medium is between our steps below our feet and the horizon in the distance. It's there that healing becomes possible as we move from self-absorption to self-respect. We understand the possibilities within our reach. If you follow the road signs on the highway you're pretty much assured to get in close proximity of your destination, give or take a few addresses, blocks or miles. On this journey we've been twisting and turning in a rather adventurous spirit. So I doubt that the direction we received today, from the “hands of babes” was purely chance. When you find synchronicity with the signs, roads and compass directions as we have today, it becomes more of a confirmation of being on the right path and for us, a confirmation that healing is in front of us. We reach to St. Gregory of Narek (Narekatsi) for today's prayer and meditation. This is merely an excerpt from a longer proclamation for healing. Narekatsi's words are overwhelming as a forest, yet each word expresses the beauty and wonder of the simple tree. Meditate on the words, mediate on the whole: Lord, my Lord, grantor of gifts, root of goodness, ruler of all equally, creator of all from nothing, glorified, awesome, awe inspiring, beyond understanding…blessed existence, shadowless dawn, ray shining upon all, light professing to all, unwavering assurance, undisturbable calm, taste of sweetness, cup of bliss, love in dark exile, great help, trustworthy refuge, undiminishing grace, inexhaustible treasure, pure rain, glittering dew, universal cure, free healing, health restored, sublime spur, defender who loves the poor, unparalleled compassion, inexhaustible mercy, humility celebrated, kiss of salvation.

Road to Healing – Lenten Journey 2014Day 21: Play Now: Direct Link for Download (right click and save link as...) Since returning home after surgery, I have been using our living room space as the headquarters for my program of recovery. It is there that I meet with friends and family and practice the daily rituals of prayer and meditation. Thoughts are introduced and processed here, some forever lost, while others hit me so profoundly, that they become prescriptions scribbled on pads of electrons. I am surrounded by two icons. On the Northern wall is an icon of the Resurrection of Christ and on the Southern side, against the window is a depiction of the Medicine Buddha. My dear friend Gregory Beylerian is the artist who created these images. By sitting between them, I am literally between North and South and spiritually between East & West. (I use these terms in the broad sense; for me, it's a question of being between East and further East.) Positioning myself here is part of my personal journey of healing. The Medicine Buddha, sometimes referred to as the Healing Buddha, is the granter of perfect health, and in that perfect health we understand body and soul, for the Medicine Buddha light is one that leads to enlightenment. The image is painted in a dark deep blue. The indigo color is associated with the brow chakra (this is one of the centers of spiritual power in the body) – where we find discernment, clarity, vision and seeing beyond illusion. So where are we today? Are we at the midpoint of our journey where East meets West? I sit between North and South, I find a fusion of East and West. You'll find that our Road to Healing has been one of discernment, to find clarity, vision and focus beyond the illusion. Because beyond our ills, problems, addictions, incompatibilities, misunderstandings and failures, there is the pure self that has the potential of complete healing. Yesterday we met the Medicine Buddha when we heard the question, “Which is easier to say, your sins are forgiven? Or to say rise and walk?” Is this not the hand off between the physical and the spiritual? Jesus, in the Parable of the Dishonest Steward, reminds us that the children of this existence are, in this generation, wiser than the children of light. Today is not only a meeting of East and West, it's the meeting of Heaven and Earth. Today we find that we are beings of physical and spiritual certainty and the completeness of our life is enjoyed only in the harmony between the two. Heaven and Earth meet as a prototype of our body and soul meeting, leading us to complete renewal and peace. I am surrounded by two icons. On one side of me the Medicine Buddha, extends his arm and hand toward the holy Earth while on my other side the Christ extends his hand up to heaven, I realize my place between them is unique. I have an opportunity as no other in time, to open myself to the healing that envelopes me, coming from all sides, from above and below, from within and without. We pray a simple prayer of St. Nersess Shnorhali: I plead to you, loving Lord, heal me. Be life in my death. Be light in my darknessTake away my pain. Amen. This is Fr. Vazken looking forward to meeting with you again tomorrow as we continue on this Road to Healing.

Road to Healing – Lenten Journey 2014Day 18: Play Now: Direct Link for Download (right click and save link as...) There would soon be nothing to celebrate on Cinco de Mayo. It was in the year 2000 on May 5 that a young man named Raul Aguirre died outside his High School. In an effort to break-up a gang-related scuffle, Raul got caught in the mix and a knife meant for another boy killed him instead. Raul was not a gang member. He was a student. He was only 17 years old. All this took place directly across the street from the church where I serve as Pastor in Glendale, California. Our church had not yet opened in 2000 and so, I came to know Raul from the stories I heard, but more so from a demonstration of compassion, love and forgiveness offered by his mother, Leticia Aguirre. On that day, Raul was late coming home from school. The phone rang and she received the first news that her son had been hurt in a fight. Only three hours later, Raul died on an operating table. Mrs. Aguirre recounted, “That moment was the most horrible in my life…. I felt that I would die, but the worst is that I didn't die…”When we opened our Armenian Church and youth ministry center in 2003, the community was very much talking about this murder. The trial was underway. The minor tensions that existed between the Armenian and Latino communities were even more pronounced by some of the students at the school. The boys who killed Raul were Armenian. Day after grueling day of testimony Mrs. Aguirre attended the trial of her boy's killers. And then the unexpected happened, at least it was unexpected for me. In fact, so much so, that I invited her to come and speak at our church – to explain this unexpected event – to a sanctuary filled with Armenian women, men, mothers, fathers and children. She spoke in Spanish, we translated in English and Armenian, and everyone – yes, everyone – heard the story in a language called Love. “I wanted justice to be done,” said Mrs. Aguirre. “In court I saw the mothers of the gang members kissing crosses and praying to God to forgive their sons and I thought how difficult this must be for God.” But when Rafael Gevorgyan, one of three gang members being tried begged for Mrs. Aguirre's forgiveness on the final day of his trial, she gave it to him. “I saw a boy, almost a child, in a situation so grave asking for forgiveness,” she said. “I felt huge compassion and huge tenderness.” As we move toward healing, we assume that the wounds of life will be closed and repaired. Some of our hurt and pain is so intense that they may never go away, but healing is not about forgetting. Healing is about completing. It's about finding the supernatural miracle, that is, rising above the expected and achieving the spectacular. Forgiveness is supernatural. Forgiveness is going beyond the expected and therefore the result is spectacular. It's healing and completing. Mrs. Aguirre's actions were supernatural, that is, they rose above the expected argument of hatred and acknowledged the power of love. There's not much higher healing than this. On our Road to Healing we stop to reflect today on yet another lesson in the art of healing through forgiveness. Our illness, our disease and misunderstandings come in many forms and shapes. To be healed we need to rise above the expected to achieve the spectacular. You're looking for a healing. You've asked for a healing. Now ask yourself, how can I make this happen by rising above the expected? By being greater than the natural, that is, by being supernatural? Is there room for love and forgiveness in my life and if I opt for them, is there healing? I look forward to meeting with you again tomorrow as we continue on the Road to Healing.

Road to Healing – Lenten Journey 2014Day 29: Play Now: Direct Link for Download (right click and save link as...) It was only a few weeks ago that we began our Lenten Journey. We began in a hospital room, listening to the news describe a faith-healer who had lost his life to a poisonous snake. It wasn't supposed to happen like that. His prayers were for a healing and yet he died. Does God hear our prayers? It is a common question. What prompts us to ask this question is that our wishes – our requests – have not been answered to our liking. That is, we pray to God with certain expectations and when we don't receive the answer we were hoping for, we believe that our prayers are not being heard. In the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7) Jesus speaks about prayer in this manner, “When you are praying, do not heap up empty phrases … for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.” If this is the case, then there is something wrong in our definition of a prayer. Traditionally we've been told that prayer is a conversation with God. Conversation implies speaking and listening. There is no such thing as a one-way conversation. You give and receive. But Jesus says that our Father knows what our wants are before we ask! Therefore, there is another function to prayer and that is that it is also a prayer with the self! God knows our wants and our needs, but many times we do not know them! As strange as that sounds, it's true. Prayer means speaking and listening and in listening the inner self is awakened to its needs. During this Road to Healing, we've been engaged in prayer and meditation. The reason for this practice is so that our inner self is tuned into its needs and its growth. Think of the hundreds and thousands of radio signals that are travelling through the airwaves right now – some are captured by your radio and played through speakers, others are captured by your phone, your neighbor's phone, your friend's phone and heard in the earpiece. Other signals are heard on the police band or on airplane frequency. So when you tune-in a radio to a certain frequency, what you're really doing is tuning-out all the other frequencies. Imagine what a mess it would be if a radio didn't have a dial and picked up every radio wave that was traveling through the air! It would be chaotic! In the same manner, when we tune-in to our needs and our desires, we're really filtering-out all the things that are not our concern, that are not pertinent to our own situation. To use our healing metaphor, if you go into a hospital to have your right leg operated on, you certainly don't expect the surgeon to cut up your left leg! If you have a tummy-ache, you don't need to look at remedies for itchy-scalp. When your marriage is on the rocks, X-raying your teeth is unnecessary. In other words, our prayer life is not about telling God what our needs are – but telling our self that our remedy is on a frequency that we need to tune-in to and hear. The healing that we are looking for is from within and without. This week we begin a new cycle on this Road. Be prepared. Let us pray, Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done,on earth as it is in heaven.Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And do not bring us to the time of trial, but rescue us from the evil one. Amen. This is Fr. Vazken inviting you to join me again tomorrow as we continue on the Road to Healing.  Produced by Suzie Shatarevyan for epostle.netPhoto: Sequoia Flower (c)2002 Fr.

He follows the light from Jesus to us, and our responsibility to be beacons of peace and love. Rev. Martin Luther King's stand on Vietnam is used as inspiration for today.Song: Peaceful World by Lara Derbedrosian Compass - Anti War (#39)Team In Her Shoes Produced by Suzie Shatarevyan for epostle.netLook for The Next Step on blubrry.comNow on Stitcher Radio! Play Now: 

Next Step #273: 50 years after Rev. Dr. Martin Luther Kings Jr's "I have a Dream Speech," Fr. Vazken shares some thoughts and offers a challenge to dream of peace - bringing about peace without the use of violence. With the imminent threat of war in Syria, a candid look at our faith - do we really believe that we can overcome evil with love? Do we believe there are non-violent alternatives to threats of death and annihilation? Also a discussion of chickens and headless existence (in the context of the Armenian Church and Armodoxy)Song: "Dream Song" by Joan Baez The SpeechTranscript: http://www.inhisshoes.org/documents/MLK_dream.pdfHarry Hagopian Podcast MENA: http://www.premier.org.uk/menaProduced by Suzie Shatarevyan for epostle.netLook for The Next Step on blubrry.comNow on Stitcher Radio! Play Now: 

Next Step #272: St. Mary's Assumption Feast was truly a 3M-er: Memorable, Mystical and Magical. Fr. Vazken reflects on the feast which included the blessing of the harvest. Linda Zadoian, owner of Madame Kubah (and of Compass fame) joins a candid discussion about blessings and goodness. A small bowl of rice and flavorful conversation add to a mix about faith. Also in the episode: Myth Busting - the truth about grapeblessing service beyond the Northern Hemisphere.

Next Step #271: Fr. Vazken starts this episode by an attempt at myth-busting grape-blessing with the help of old-Iraqis and the folks down-under. Where this podcast ends up is a true reflection of Armodoxy - taking the essence of the Holy Mother of God, St. Mary, and finding a verse of pop culture that focuses on the importance of Saints in our everyday life. Is this a redirection or dismissal of her virginity? You decide. But before you do, listen to the list of names ascribed to St. Mary, from "Antaram" to "Makrouhi" to "Yerjanik" and find a message that talks to you. Also, a look at the Grape Blessing service; the Armenians were sanctifying food before Kosher became a standard.

Next Step #270: Discovering a missing element from the Nicene Creed. Is there more than the Father, Son, Holy Spirit and the Church? Listen in as Fr. Vazken finds the missing piece to the puzzle of Orthodoxy and Armodoxy. Balancing the roller-coasters of life - the cries and laughs - with a hug-proposal - how about a week long hug-fest? Beginning the 100th Anniversary Commemoration of the Genocide with some sanity. Also: In what language do you think? A look from the ghetto.Song: Khatchadour Avetissian "Djermag Aghavnie" - White Dove 100th Anniversary of the Armenian Genocide Monument Groundbreaking speech by Fr.

Next Step #269: A lost kiss finds its way to where it belongs. Join Fr. Vazken as mood swings and different life puzzles play into this podcast. A blast from Armenia and a stop at the orphanage for special need children. Armodoxy is the message of Armenian Orthodoxy and there's no better place to hear it. Pope Francis borrows a page from Armodoxy too.Song: John Bilezikjian "Art of the Oud"  Fr.

Next Step #268: Starting off with "remarkable" comments by the Roman Pontiff, HH Pope Francis regarding the "flimsy structures" in the Church and buying humbler cars. The authority that comes from sincerity. Medications for dealing with pain - find a natural solution within the Christ. Keeping Faith during Genocide by using symbols and the Rosary to connect us with Mystery.Song: New Age Armenia by Artur Sedrakian & Albina HambartzumianPope Francis Comments: Buy Only "Humble" CarsRwanda Blog: http://dervaz.blogspot.com/ Surviving Genocide & the RosaryTorkom Saraydarian "New Dimensions in Healing" Produced by Suzie Shatarevyan for epostle.netLook for The Next Step on blubrry.comNow on Stitcher Radio! Play Now:
