+ Holy Gospel according to St. Mark 8: 1 – 10 In those days when there again was a great crowd without anything to eat, Jesus summoned the disciples and said, "My heart is moved with pity for the crowd, because they have been with me now for three days and have nothing to eat. If I send them away hungry to their homes, they will collapse on the way, and some of them have come a great distance."His disciples answered him, "Where can anyone get enough bread to satisfy them here in this deserted place?"Still he asked them, "How many loaves do you have?""Seven," they replied.He ordered the crowd to sit down on the ground. Then, taking the seven loaves he gave thanks, broke them, and gave them to his disciples to distribute, and they distributed them to the crowd. They also had a few fish. He said the blessing over them and ordered them distributed also.They ate and were satisfied. They picked up the fragments left over - seven baskets.There were about four thousand people. He dismissed them and got into the boat with his disciples and came to the region of Dalmanutha.The Gospel of the Lord

"The life of this saint is wonderful beyond measure and is worth reading in full. What did he not endure to fulfil the Law of God? At the age of eighteen, he went off into a mountain in Cappadocia called the Ark and spent 25 years in fasting, vigils and prayer, and struggling with manifold temptations. When a woman came to tempt him and he saw that he would fall into sin with her, he leapt barefoot into the fire and stood in it until the pain brought forth tears from his eyes and he had killed all lust within himself. When other temptations arose, he fled to a lonely rock in the sea and lived there. When, though, in a shipwreck, a woman swam to the rock, he leapt into the sea intending to drown himself. But a dolphin took him upon its back and brought him, by God's providence, to the shore. He then decided to make nowhere his permanent home but to travel incessantly. Thus he passed through 164 towns in two years, exhorting and advising the people. He finally arrived in Athens, where he died in 422." (Prologue)
Full Text of Readings Memorial of Saints Cyril, Monk, and Methodius, Bishop Lectionary: 334 The Saint of the day is Saints Cyril and Methodius Saints Cyril and Methodius' Stories Because their father was an officer in a part of Greece inhabited by many Slavs, these two Greek brothers ultimately became missionaries, teachers, and patrons of the Slavic peoples. After a brilliant course of studies, Cyril (called Constantine until he became a monk shortly before his death) refused the governorship of a district such as his brother had accepted among the Slavic-speaking population. Cyril withdrew to a monastery where his brother Methodius had become a monk after some years in a governmental post. A decisive change in their lives occurred when the Duke of Moravia asked the Eastern Emperor Michael for political independence from German rule and ecclesiastical autonomy (having their own clergy and liturgy). Cyril and Methodius undertook the missionary task. Cyril's first work was to invent an alphabet, still used in some Eastern liturgies. His followers probably formed the Cyrillic alphabet. Together they translated the Gospels, the psalter, Paul's letters and the liturgical books into Slavonic, and composed a Slavonic liturgy, highly irregular then. That and their free use of the vernacular in preaching led to opposition from the German clergy. The bishop refused to consecrate Slavic bishops and priests, and Cyril was forced to appeal to Rome. On the visit to Rome, he and Methodius had the joy of seeing their new liturgy approved by Pope Adrian II. Cyril, long an invalid, died in Rome 50 days after taking the monastic habit. Methodius continued mission work for 16 more years. He was papal legate for all the Slavic peoples, consecrated a bishop and then given an ancient see (now in the Czech Republic). When much of their former territory was removed from their jurisdiction, the Bavarian bishops retaliated with a violent storm of accusation against Methodius. As a result, Emperor Louis the German exiled Methodius for three years. Pope John VIII secured his release. Because the Frankish clergy, still smarting, continued their accusations, Methodius had to go to Rome to defend himself against charges of heresy and uphold his use of the Slavonic liturgy. He was again vindicated. Legend has it that in a feverish period of activity, Methodius translated the whole Bible into Slavonic in eight months. He died on Tuesday of Holy Week, surrounded by his disciples, in his cathedral church. Opposition continued after his death, and the work of the brothers in Moravia was brought to an end and their disciples scattered. But the expulsions had the beneficial effect of spreading the spiritual, liturgical, and cultural work of the brothers to Bulgaria, Bohemia and southern Poland. Patrons of Moravia, and specially venerated by Catholic Czechs, Slovaks, Croatians, Orthodox Serbians and Bulgarians, Saints Cyril and Methodius are eminently fitted to guard the long-desired unity of East and West. In 1980, Pope John Paul II named them additional co-patrons of Europe. Reflection Holiness means reacting to human life with God's love: human life as it is, crisscrossed with the political and the cultural, the beautiful and the ugly, the selfish and the saintly. For Saints Cyril and Methodius much of their daily cross had to do with the language of the liturgy. They are not saints because they got the liturgy into Slavonic, but because they did so with the courage and humility of Christ. Dear Saints Cyril and Methodius: Pray for us!Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media
Ten years on from the Regency Hotel shooting, a one-man play about Gerry ‘The Monk' Hutch is returning to the stage in the Ambassador Theatre after last year's sold-out run. Written and performed by Rex Ryan, son of the late broadcaster Gerry Ryan, the show charts the life of one of Ireland's most infamous and divisive figures. The Monk's name is etched into the public consciousness through an unprecedented gangland feud that reshaped the country's criminal landscape. So, does putting his story onstage risk humanising, even glamorising, a violent chapter in recent Irish history?

La Porta | Renungan Harian Katolik - Daily Meditation according to Catholic Church liturgy
Delivered by Jeril from the Parish of Sacred Heart of Jesus Cathedral in the Archdiocese of Makassar, Indonesia. 1 Kings 12: 26-32; 13: 33-34; Rs psalm 106: 6-7a.19-20.21-22; Mark 8: 1-10.SPIRITUAL MEALTHAT UNITES The title for our meditation today is: Spiritual MealThat Unites. The unity within a family is especially seen when all the membersof the family come together to attend Holy Mass, and then continue with lunchtogether. This is somehow a routine activity. Such a fellowship is in sharpcontrast to the situation of God's people under the kings after Solomon'sdeath. Worst, King Jeroboam magnified his sin by going against the Spirit ofGod because he believed in the gods of Gentiles. The spiritual meal available to believers, followersof Christ, is the offering of Jesus himself as the main part of His work ofdoing the Father's will. In all of His ministerial work, He manifested His actof love in the presence of the apostles and many around Him. They were allamazed, proud, happy and believe in those loving actions of Jesus. But aboveall is the ultimate act, which is to die to redeem all mankind. He marked this highest act with an act of remembrancein the Church, in the form of a meal, to become the firsthand experience of Hispresence by all His people. This aims to strengthen and preserve communion thatHe has made. We all know this as the Eucharist. Before the institution of theEucharist, Jesus first brought His followers and many people to eat theeuchatistic bread, which is His own body, on the occasion of the multiplication of bread and fish tofeed thousands of people who were hungry and thirsty, after the whole dayfollowing and listening to Him. The feeding of these thousands was further emphasizedin the moments leading up to His moment of death, when He ate the last supperwith the apostles, and there He distributed bread and wine. His reminded thatthey should continue the event of celebrating this spiritual meal inremembrance of Him, as well as to be the spiritual empowerment for all who takepart in it. In this banquet, Jesus who broke his own body and shared to theapostles to consume, this act signifies the institution of the sacraments of Eucharistand Priesthood. So the unity that we preserve and strengthenconstantly both through prayer and tangible action depends heavily on these twobasic elements: the Eucharist and the Priesthood. The sacrament of theEucharist is a spiritual meal, while the priesthood is the privilege ofcarrying out and presiding over the memorable event to be celebrated when theLord himself presides and we take part in it.Let us pray. In the name of the Father... Lord Jesus Christ,may our unity in and with You be a very real force in this world to bring aboutthe kingdom of God that can renew the whole face of this earth. Hail Mary, fullof grace... In the name of the Father...

Gerry “The Monk” Hutch says he's running again — this time for the Dublin Central by‑election — and we ask the big question: would you want someone like him as a TD in Dáil Éireann?Callers are absolutely split: some say “he can't be any worse than what's in there” and want to “give him a chance”, others say he has no policies, no plan, and shouldn't be anywhere near power — especially with CAB still chasing nearly €800k.Plus: another Opinions Matter travel mug giveaway question at the end.
It's episode two of three covering the New York Times list of Top Ten 2025 jazz albums, and since we generally cover 4 albums a show, and the Times only picked 10 for their top 10 list, we add a couple of our own picks to this "middle" episode to make the math work. We've got a drummer led live date that sounds studio bound, a duet veering towards new age, a bizarre and challenging disc from a long running Underground ensemble, and an album of Monk covers by a quartet featuring a tenor saxophone - how original!

We speak because we are afraid to be still. We speak because silence exposes us. We speak because when the mouth closes the heart begins to make noise and that noise is often unbearable. The Fathers knew this long before psychology gave it names. They knew that speech is not neutral. It is not just communication. It is an outflow of what is ruling the inner world. Every word carries the weight of the heart behind it. This is why Abba Pambo could stand at death and say that he had not repented of a single word and yet also say that he had not even begun to serve God. He knew what speech costs. He knew how easily a careless phrase can wound another, harden the self or invite the demons into the space between people. He did not trust his own clarity. He waited. He let months pass rather than speak a word that was not born from God. That kind of restraint feels almost inhuman to us. We live in a world that rewards immediacy. We are trained to answer quickly, react quickly, express quickly, post quickly, correct quickly. But speed is not truth. Speed is often panic wearing a clever face. The monk who waits to speak is not slow. He is standing before God inside himself. He is listening for something that is not his own. The Elder says that a man can be silent with his lips and loud with his heart. That is the most damning line in this whole section. You can say nothing and still be screaming. You can be quiet and still be condemning everyone around you. You can appear peaceful while your mind is devouring your brothers. Another man can speak all day and yet remain silent because he refuses to let his words become weapons, judgments or self display. Silence is not a style. It is a spiritual state. Idle talk is not mostly obscene or stupid. It is unnecessary. It is speech that does not serve salvation. It is talk that fills the space so we do not have to face what is happening inside. We speak about bodies and opinions and events and annoyances and plans because these are safer than the truth of our hearts. The moment we speak about what is good we discover how quickly evil slips in. Pride sneaks into holy words. Comparison sneaks into spiritual conversation. The self sneaks into everything. This is why the Elder answers the brother who wants a word to be saved with something that sounds almost trivial. Do not hasten to speak before you consider what you are going to say. That is not etiquette. That is warfare. To pause before speaking is to interrupt the automatic rule of the ego. It is to refuse to let the tongue be driven by irritation, hunger for recognition or the need to be right. It is to create a small space where God might enter. Most of what we say is not meant to help anyone. It is meant to regulate ourselves. We speak to soothe anxiety. We speak to discharge frustration. We speak to draw attention. We speak to feel real. We speak to avoid the ache of not being in control. The mouth becomes a narcotic. The more we use it the less we notice how enslaved we are to it. This is why the Fathers are so severe. They are not moralizing. They are diagnosing a sickness. The soul that cannot keep watch over its words cannot keep watch over its thoughts. The heart that pours itself out through constant speech cannot remain gathered before God. It leaks. It disperses. It becomes weak. The tragedy is that we confuse expression with honesty. We think that saying what we feel is the same as bringing it to God. It is not. Most of the time it just feeds the feeling. It strengthens the pattern. It builds a little kingdom around the self. We call it authenticity but it is often captivity. The monk learns slowly and painfully that every word either bends him toward God or bends him toward himself. There is no neutral speech. Either it deepens prayer or it corrodes it. Either it builds communion or it sows division. Either it creates space for grace or it fills the room with ego. This is why the saint waits. This is why the Elder warns. This is why the Fathers tremble before idle talk. They have seen what words do to the heart. They have watched souls unravel because the mouth was never taught to kneel. To learn silence is not to become mute. It is to become true. It is to let God have the first and last word inside you. And until that happens every sentence we speak is a small gamble with our soul. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:00:31 Fr. Charbel Abernethy: Page 353 00:01:32 Fr.

Have you ever struggled with how to meditate when your mind feels too loud, too anxious, or just won't slow down? In this solo episode, I'm sharing what actually happened when I spent seven days at a monastery — and why the experience completely changed how I understand meditation. I didn't find instant peace. I met my own restlessness, overthinking, and discomfort first. I even got the flu! But that's exactly where the learning began. If you've struggled with how to start meditation, or felt like meditation for anxiety just doesn't work for you, this episode offers a gentler way in. We talk about simple meditation techniques that support your nervous system instead of forcing stillness, and the real benefits of meditation that go far beyond relaxation. This is about learning how to sit with yourself without needing to fix or change what you find there.

A Marine, a monk, and a money manager walk into a bar—and somehow, they're all the same person. In this powerful and wide-ranging conversation, Mike “C-Roc” sits down with Douglas Lynam to unpack one of the most unconventional life journeys you'll ever hear. Doug shares how he went from Marine Officer Candidate School to spending twenty years as a Benedictine monk, only to later emerge into the world of finance as a financial advisor, business coach, keynote speaker, and author. Along the way, he opens up about childhood experiences with money, rebellion, faith, purpose, and the surprising ways our relationship with wealth is shaped long before we realize it.Doug dives deep into his time in the monastery, including how a vow of poverty collided head-on with financial reality when the monastery went bankrupt—and how that moment forced him to confront money rather than avoid it. That unexpected responsibility became the catalyst for his lifelong work exploring the psychology, philosophy, and spirituality of money. He explains how earning, saving, investing, and giving must work together, why “giving first” without a foundation can backfire, and how money, when understood properly, becomes a tool for meaning rather than a source of fear or control.The conversation also explores Doug's books, From Monk to Money Manager and Taming Your Money Monster, his TEDx talk on purpose and wealth, and the idea that true financial mastery begins with self-awareness, courage, and alignment with values. This episode challenges conventional money advice, blends spiritual wisdom with practical finance, and invites listeners to rethink not just how they manage money—but why they do it in the first place.Website- douglynam.com Social Media Links/Handles- https://www.facebook.com/douglynam/https://www.instagram.com/douglynam/https://www.linkedin.com/in/doug-lynam/ https://www.youtube.com/@douglynam https://substack.com/@douglynam

This episode takes you deep into the science of Kundalini, the biology of spiritual experiences, and the intersection of mental health and meditation.In this conversation with Dr. K, we talk about the neuroscience behind Chakras, the risks and benefits of Kundalini practices, and how substances like DMT and Psilocybin affect the brain compared to natural meditation. We also explore the concept of the Default Mode Network, the role of Serotonin and Dopamine in happiness, and practical ways to manage ego, narcissism, and confidence. This episode also covers the physiology of specific Chakras (from Muladhara to Ajna), the science of Anandamide (the bliss molecule), the existence of Asuras and Deities, and actionable techniques like Trataka (candle gazing).

He was born to a noble family in Alexandria. For a short time he taught rhetoric in Pelusium in Egypt; but soon his love for the things of God led him to flee to the Desert as a solitary. After a year of ascetical life, he returned to Pelusium, where he was ordained to the priesthood. After a few years he retired to a monastery where he spent the rest of his life, eventually becoming Abbot. From the monastery he wrote thousands of epistles full of divine grace and wisdom; of these more than two thousand still survive. Saint Isidore was a student and devout disciple of St John Chrysostom, as he knew him through his writings. When St Cyril became Patriarch of Alexandria, he refused to commemorate St John in the diptychs during the Divine Liturgy. Saint Isidore wrote him a strong letter reminding him not to heed the rumors, prejudices or threats of men, and St Cyril was persuaded to restore commemoration of the Archbishop of Constantinople, and later became a strong advocate of the veneration of St John. Isidore, though a monk, was treated as a spiritual father by Patriarch Cyril: around 433, when St Cyril was inclined to deal harshly with some who had been swept up in the Nestorian heresy, St Isidore wrote to him: 'As your father, since you are pleased to give me this name, or rather as your son, I adjure you to put an end to this dissension lest a permanent breach be made under the pretext of piety.' With reputation came persecution, and St Isidore suffered much from Imperial and church authorities unhappy with his holy influence. He bore all these troubles impassibly, and in 440 (according to one source) or about 449 (according to another) he joyfully gave up his soul to God.

Episode #112 – Douglas Lynam: From Monk to Money Manager & Enneagram Insights In this episode I sit down with Douglas Lynam whose journey spans from monastic life to the world of finance. Douglas shares how his early years as a monk shaped his perspective on work, wealth, and what it means to live intentionally. We then pivot to his experience as a money manager, exploring why he believes capitalism — for all its flaws — may still be the best system we've got when understood and applied wisely. Along the way, Douglas brings his passion for the Enneagram into the conversation, offering insights into how personality patterns can influence how we think about success, purpose, and relationships. In this episode, we cover: · Douglas's transition from monk to money manager — what changed and what stayed the same · How monastic discipline informs his approach to finance, focus, and daily habits · An honest discussion about capitalism — its strengths, weaknesses, and why it might still be our most effective economic system · Enneagram insights — how understanding personality types can clarify motives, blind spots, and growth paths · How inner work and outer systems intersect in life, money, and leadership About Douglas Lynam Douglas brings to his work a rare blend of contemplative training, financial expertise, and personality psychology. He's deeply invested in helping people navigate both inner patterns and external structures — whether that's through money, meaning, or self-understanding.

Welcome to the RPGBOT.Podcast—where Unearthed Arcana comes to be lovingly examined, gently mocked, and occasionally asked, "Buddy… are you okay?" Today we're cracking open the latest UA drop from Wizards of the Coast, featuring a Monk who does mystic stuff (but don't ask him what kind), a Paladin who took an oath against spellcasters yet somehow became their HR department, a Rogue whose entire job is "stand near a wizard and vibe," and a Warlock who finally said, "What if I just took the cCeric's homework?" We've got scotch-fueled optimism, holiday fatigue, subclass features that boldly ask for coordination without offering agency, and at least one moment where we all realize: congratulations, you don't have a feature—you have responsibilities. Strap in, casters, because someone's about to give you a massage and call it game design. Show Notes In this episode, Randall James, Tyler Kamstra, and Ash Ely engage in a lively discussion about the latest Unearthed Arcana release, focusing on four new subclasses for Dungeons & Dragons. The conversation kicks off with light banter about personal experiences and preferences, particularly around scotch and the recent holidays. As they delve into the new subclasses, they express mixed feelings about the design choices, particularly criticizing the lack of creativity in naming and mechanics. The hosts explore the intricacies of the Mystic Arts Monk, Oath of the Spellguard Paladin, and the Magic Stealer Rogue, highlighting both the potential and shortcomings of each subclass. They emphasize the need for more engaging features and express disappointment over the reliance on existing mechanics without innovative twists. Welcome to the RPGBOT Podcast.

Reading The Life of Saint Malchos the Monk and Captive by Saint Jerome
Gammer Gurton’s Garland, published in 1784, is one of the earliest collections of English nursery rhymes, and contains verses both familiar and alarmingly unsettling. Intended to be read to toddlers (i.e., “children who can neither read nor run,” according to its subtitle) and named after a fictitious Grandma (“Gammer”) Gurton, who'd be analogous to Mother Goose, the volume were assembled by the eccentric scholar Joseph Ritson, who was known for his collecting of Robin Hood ballads, vegetarianism and ultimate descent into madness. Portrait of Joseph Ritson by James Sayers, early 1800s. We begin our episode with a snippet of a 1940s' rendition of “Froggy Went a-Courting” by cowboy singer Tex Ritter. It's a relatively modern take on Ritson's “The Frog and the Mouse.” But like quite a few rhymes in the collection, this one had appeared in print earlier. Already in 1611, British composer of rounds and collector of ballads, Thomas Ravenscroft, had written out both lyrics and musical notation for “The Marriage of the Frogge and the Mouse,” a song he described as a folk song or “country pastime.” While a few other rhymes in Ritson's collection were borrowed from one of two earlier editions of nursery verses (both published as Tommy Thumb’s Song Book 40 years earlier), most of what he collected appeared for tge first time in Gammer Gurton’s. We hear a bit about some of the familiar rhymes that premiered in this collection, including Goosey, Goosey Gander, Ride a Cock-Horse to Banbury Cross (with the “rings on her fingers and bells on her toes” lady), Bye, Baby Bunting, and There Was an Old Woman who Lived in a Shoe.” Ritson's version of the last, however, takes a rather rude and unexpected turn. 1865 edition of Gammer Gurton’s Many, if not most, of Ritson's rhymes seem to have been weeded out of the gentile or sentimental collections we know today. Naturally, we devote attention particularly to these objectionable verses. Included are a handful of aggressively nonsensical rhymes, which could pass for 18th-century Dada and verses notable for their cruelty. The most alarming contain brutal slurs, threats, and playful references to assault, adultery, matricide, suicide, and animals going to the gallows. The last third of our episode is dedicated to poems noteworthy for their survival as musical ballads. The first discussed is the basis for song “Lady Alice,” which later appears in James Child's 1860 collection The English and Scottish Popular Ballads. Ritson's version, “Giles Collins and Proud Lady Anna,” is a greatly simplified version of the ballad later cited by Child. While toddlers might appreciate the simpler storytelling, the subject matter — namely, doomed lovers — is not the normal stuff of healthy nursery rhymes. More surprising, is the fact that Ritson's story begins with Giles Collins in the process of dying and Lady Anna dead (of heartbreak) within a few verses. After their deaths, a tentative suggestion of undying love, a lily reaching from Giles' grave toward Anna's, is destroyed – an unhappy turn on the not uncommon motif of a rose and briar entwining over lovers' graves. We close with a discussion of “The Gay Lady who Went to Church,” an innocuous-sounding rhyme, intertwined with the history of two rather gruesome folk songs popular around Halloween: “There Was an Old Lady All Skin and Bones” and “The Hearse Song” AKA “The Worms Crawl In.” Also discussed is a surprising link between Ritson's nursery rhyme and a faux-historical ballad invented for the very first Gothic novel, Matthew Gregory Lewis' The Monk.
