"The truth is that Christ did not send me forth to baptize you but to proclaim the gospel. Moreover, it was not to be a wisdom relying on mere words that I was to employ in so doing, as I wanted to avert all danger that Christ's cross might be emptied of all meaning."   1 Cor 1:17

"The gods are not; truly, you are the G-d who is in hiding!"   Isaiah 45:14-15

“Resurrection is not an all-powerful divine act, but rather the effect of the meeting and union of Divine Love, Hope & Faith with human love, hope and faith” (Meditations on the Tarot, p.571-2).

METHOD I+N THEOLOGY

"Graciously hear us,   Lord,   holy Father,  almighty eternal G-d, and   deign to
send your holy Angel from heaven, to guard, cherish, protect, visit and defend
all residents in this tiny dwelling-place"   .... i.e., the manifest cosmos

See the thunder; hear the lightning…

Many current attitudes, beliefs and practical approaches widely reputed to be
well established have, in fact, long been in need of radical and urgent rethinking.

THE THIRTY-THREE PRELIMINARY READINGS

           
St. Paul was shipwrecked 300 yards off the Maltese coast, here, in late October or early November 59 A.D.
He probably embarked for Rome from Gozo on 10 February in A.D. 60.   Acts 27:39-28:11

ENSTATIC CONVERSION?

"We have distinguished four realms of meaning: common sense, theory, interiority, and transcendence. We have had occasion to distinguish such differentiations of consciousness as the resolution of common sense into common sense and theory and the further resolution of common sense and theory into common sense, theory, and interiority. But our remarks on transcendence as a differentiated realm have been fragmentary.

What I have referred to as the gift of G-d's love, spontaneously reveals itself in love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, fidelity, gentleness, and self-control. In undifferentiated consciousness it will express its reference to the transcendent both through sacred objects, places, times, and actions, and through the sacred offices of the shaman, the prophet, the lawgiver, the apostle, the priest, the preacher, the monk, the teacher. As consciousness differentiates into the two realms of common sense and theory, it will give rise to special theoretical questions concerning divinity, the order of the universe, the destiny of mankind, and the lot of each individual. When these three realms of common sense, theory, and interiority are differentiated, the self-appropriation of the subject leads not only to the objectification of experiencing, understanding, judging and deciding, but also of religious experience.

Quite distinct from these objectifications of the gift of G-d's love in the realms of common sense and of theory and from the realm of interiority, is the emergence of the gift as itself a differentiated realm. It is this emergence that is cultivated by a life of prayer and self-denial and, when it occurs, it has the twofold effect, first, of withdrawing the subject from the realm of common sense, theory, and other interiority into a 'cloud of unknowing' and then of intensifying, purifying, clarifying the objectifications referring to the transcendent whether in the realm of common sense, or of theory, or of other interiority.

It is to be observed that, while for secular man of the twentieth century the most familiar differentiation of consciousness distinguishes and relates theory and common sense, still in the history of mankind both in the East and the Christian West the predominant differentiation of consciousness has set in opposition and in mutual enrichment the realms of common sense and of transcendence."

Webmaster's note: Reading the above in Father Lonergan's Method in Theology when it first appeared in 1972, even though I already knew his Insight well, I failed to notice that the comma printed immediately after "clarifying" in the published version of that second last paragraph was a typographical error; I have removed it.

44. Bibles & other Sacred Books    "What does the Bible actually say about Noah's Great Flood?" - Genesis 5:28-8:22

"…Never again will I strike down every living thing as I have done. •As long as earth endures: seed-time and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease.’ ”
Note: Although scholars are agreed that this account is very largely based on a number of earlier, longer and much more detailed texts, only some of which have survived, it is, nevertheless, long in comparison with the Bible's opening accounts of G-d's work of creation culminating in that of “the Adam”, of his subseqent planting of “a garden in Eden, which is in the east”, and of his transfer of man to this garden where “woman” was then fashioned to live with him in a naked state as “his wife”. The biblical description of Eve, “the mother of all those who live” being “tempted” by “the snake”, and of Yahweh's subsequently banishing both her and “the man become like one of us in knowing good from evil” from the garden in order to till the soil elsewhere is also considerably shorter than this account of the Universal Deluge. In such circumstances it would be less than wise to neglect Hamlet's Mill or to assume this to be the description of what was, in fact, no more than a local event!

  • 321, 321a-e. For personal purposes and when facilitating workshops based on J. H. Mason's eminently practical approach, I find the above listing of salient issues enormously helpful. I am indebted to WHITAKER & LIEBERMAN for their account of the dynamic and progressive development of all successfully surviving human groups by reference to thirty-eight typical features of Group Process, to Woolams, Brown & Huige, to Ouseley, Silverstone & Prashar, to Peter Rudge, and especially to Professor Vittorio Hess, Doctor Marco Todeschini and their international team of research-associates for their exciting innovations in Human Cybernetic Typology, their shared insights, academic courtesies and truly professional cooperation, as well as for their much valued gift of personal friendship.
  • [[This section moved down on this extract, for convenience of printing.312-4. In collaboration with M. Todeschini: Success - Rules for the Guidance of Genius, a monograph in private circulation (London, 1980) inspired by MARCO TODESCHINI, Tipologia Cibernetica Umana - Risultato di successive elaborazioni collettive (edizione extra-commerciale: Torino-Londra, 1980, and re-expressed in English as Human Cybernetic Psychology.
    315-7. Compare VITTORIO HESS, Burocrazia e Benessere - Verso un modello non occidentecentrico (Jovene editore), English translation by BRIAN WILLIAMS: Bureaucracy & Wellbeing - Towards a non-Western model (Università di Camerino: Pubblicazioni della Facoltà di Giurisprudenza 1992).
    "My ideas of psychological typology are now at a more advanced stage. It was better not to publish before, because at the social level everything is very hard, and we have to consider many problems. To publish thinking that we are giving some kind of revelation would be naïve. All of this is really very well known by everybody, but it is simply rejected because people don't like to see what they are. Moreover, they are not so far wrong, because all these ideas have been misused in the past, and we need to be very careful not to allow ourselves to be associated in any way with any repetition of such past mistakes."
    Professor Hess, writing to me from London about his own above mentioned book, developed out of Marco Todeschini's and our other friends' and colleagues' mutually complementary explorations and research, towards the end of June, 1991
    318-9. Incomplete French translation of Success - Rules for the Guidance of Genius: Succès - règles pour la conduite d'un génie (London, 1980); The Alpha-A Directory (restricted circulation only: 1980).]]
       I found S. WOOLAMS, M. BROWN & K. HUIGE, Transactional Analysis in brief (Huron Valley Institute 1974) extremely helpful, and I regard H. OUSELEY, D. SILVERSTONE & U. PRASHAR, The System (Runnymede Trust and South London Equal Rights Consultancy 1983) as almost indispensable for a succinct yet accurate account of how one and the same individual, in relating to another, modulates the form or socially perceptible Gestalt of her or his self-presentation so that, if it isn't to be misunderstood, it needs to be interpeted as that of a character rôle-playing now as a "Parent", now as a "Child" - and only intermittently as a truly rational "Adult".
       Most helpful, too: PETER F. RUDGE, Ministry and Management (Tavistock Publications 1968). This author's analysis of the organizational forms, leadership patterns, quality-control mechanisms and goals of five different models of management, namely: the traditional, the charismatic, the machine-like, the personal relations centred, and the systems oriented, now clearly needs to be complemented by the model (though "model" is hardly a suitable term) principally focussed within the Neith Network, viz., Nature's chaos which is, of course, simply a "scientific" name for Divine Providence - which the present Pope John-Paul II sometimes promotes rather indirectly by reminding us of the evils of "structural sin".
       It was shortly after Vittorio Hess had first introduced me to Doctor Charles Sprague in the late Summer or early Autumn of 1980 that Charles, then in his eighties, and whose work as English translator of volume 1 of H. A. Schwaller de Lubicz's ground-breaking evocation of the esoteric life in pharaonic Ancient Egypt, Her Bak I already knew and admired, invited me to take tea with himself and his charming wife, Jennifer, in their lovely home in Hemel Hempstead, where he presented me with a complimentary copy of the above listed March 1974 number of a periodical, Systematics, that he had formerly edited, and he also very kindly, specifically drew to my attention Mason's remarkably concise and extremely lucid article within its pages: “Design of a Summer School”, which has stood me in very good stead ever since.
  • 322-8d. Letters “Marxism Out - Alpha In” and “Küng's Faith, Hope and Assurance” in Catholic Herald (10 October 1980 and 16 January 1981); letter “Hunger Strikers - The Choice is Yours” in Catholic Herald (14 August 1981); letter “The Papacy Undiminished” in Catholic Herald (11 September 1981); letter “Adult Study Is Crucial” in Streatham News (27 November 1981); “Find Out About Philosophy” - study-notes for adult students frequenting New Acropolis (UK) Seminars in Islington (1981) - cf C. HOLLAND, “Dreaming of Higher Things” in Islington Gazette (24 April 1981); “Delta Therapy Naturally”, privately commissioned Commercial Feasibility Report (Stockwell: Creativity House, 1981); compare JOHN C. LILLY, The Deep Self - Profound Relaxation and the Tank Isolation Technique (New York: Warner Books 1978); MICHÆL HUTCHISON, The Book of Floating (New York: William Morrow & Co., 1984); Megabrain (New York: Ballantine Books 1987).
    329-33. Series of 3 articles: “The Alphabet tells a fascinating story”, “Some curious facts about the Calendar” and “Symbolism in Egypt” in New Acropolis, the New Acropolis (UK) official Bulletin (Islington: 1982); Sunrise Aquarius, draft novel (Stockwell: Creativity House, 1982) now for the most part abandoned, but of which one or two copies probably survive. This historically based yarn ranged the centuries from pre-Ancient-Egypt through the late mediæval Cathars and troubadours to Hitler's S.S. and his fascination for the occult; also included was a meditation on the spiritual implications of more recent changes in Roman Catholic liturgy. JASON CRISP enjoyed full access to this material and later incorporated some of it into his own privately circulated ébauche: Rose Thorne Lives!.
    334-42. The Tarot Cards Unpacked and, with OLIVIA BRUN, Le Tarot Décortiqué - notes for the private use of sincere students of the esoteric (1982); Four Seasons Massage (London, Creativity House, 1983); Robin Hood - The Man Behind The Myth, first draft of a privately commissioned research Report (Stockwell: Creativity House, 1983) - cf Nottingham Evening Post, 6 February 1984; Present and Future Needs In and For Adult Education (London: AHEAD, 1983); reviews of Out of Crisis - A Project for European Recovery and The Birth of Solidarity - The Gdansk Negotiations: 1980 (commissioned by Livinus Dorrian in 1983, when he had already moved from the Old Kent Road to Thamesmead); letter “In Truth, we don't Begin at the Begetting" with an accompanying cartoon in The Guardian (29 May 1984).
    343-7a. Letter “The Evil of Wage Slavery” in Catholic Herald (12 October 1984); “Divine Actuality, Theological Realities, Catholic Truth and the Ontology of Language”, lecture delivered during the CPG annual conference (London: January 1985); letter “The Living Christ” in Catholic Herald (26 April 1985); “Large Characters in WordStar” in Practical Computing (vol. 8, no. 5, May 1985, pp.144-45); The Philosophy of J. D. Solomon, a first account privately circulated in 1986 - cf J. D. SOLOMON, The Mind's Ear (Hounslow: Bibliagora 1979); letter “Faith Hand in Hand with Good Works” in Catholic Herald (4 April 1986).
    348. Streatham & Tooting Institute of Adult Education Prospectus 1987-1988 (Inner London Education Authority, 1987). The entire text of a much used administrative office-copy of this complex document was word-processed on an Apricot computer in his own 'free time' by the then Head of the Department of Languages & Liberal Studies as one contribution to an eventually successful but then still only slowly although increasingly rapidly increasing computerization of the Institute's internal administration and management procedures.
    349-61. The Creativity Machine - A Preliminary Report, a professional assessment of the potential of Doctor JON WHALE, M.Inst.P.I., Ph.D.'s invention (Exeter: Creativity House, 24 May 1988); letter “Mixing People's Action” in Catholic Herald (11 November 1988); editorial oversight of JON WHALE, Nature's Power is Love & Light - Electronic Medicine, Crystal Healing and Esoteric Knowledge: The Computer Alchemist's Workbook (Hampton: WHALE, 1988, pp.133) for restricted distribution only; Robin Hood - The Man Behind The Myth, final version of this privately commissioned research Report (Exeter: Creativity House, 1988, 1989); letter “Sun Dump Not New” in Exeter Herald (20 April 1989); letter “Maxibus Rubbish” in Exeter Herald (11 May 1989); in collaboration with JON WHALE: Health is a Rainbow - Cosmic Rejuvenation using the Electronic Caduceus, monograph presented to the Senior Editor of BRES (Amsterdam) and to both Dutch and UK users of this then newly patented therapeutic device (Exeter: Creativity House 1989); letters “Spaced-Out Theories” and “A Green Planet” in Exeter Herald (25 May & 27 July 1989); letters “Female Fulfilment”, “Towards Rebirth & Charismatic Renewal”, “Hunger Strikers - The Choice is Yours” and “The Evil of Wage Slavery” in Catholic Herald (28 July 1989; … ……1980, 14 August 1981 & 12 October 1984).
    362-9. The Rainbow Cymbal (2nd draft of private, non-commercial 1st edition limited to 14 copies, with extensive indices and more than 2,000 bibliographical references; Colin's original top-copy comprises 1,629 individuallly dot-matrix printed pages in three green-leather-bound volumes (Exeter: Creativity House, 25 December 1989 - 21 December 1990); letter to His Holiness Pope John-Paul II: “The Rainbow, The Chalice & The Cross I+N New Jerusalem” (2 February 1991); letter “To Queen Elizabeth II” (9 February 1991); open letter to all friends of Peace on Earth: “Working, Playing & Praying Together to implement the Rainbow Programme” (1 March 1991); letter to Dr. George Carey on the occasion of his installation as Archbishop of Canterbury, 19 April 1991; The Creativity Chronicle - Incorporating the Neith Network Orbital Report, vol.1, no.1 - vol.2, no.2, June 1991 - January 1992, (Exeter: Creativity House, in private circulation).
    370. Transcription and editing of LEVI HAMER, “God” - A Book issued posthumously and with authority by Levi Hamer, faithfully transcribed, introduced, and supplemented with notes by his only son, Colin Hamer (Exeter: Creativity House, September 1991).
    371-1f. Edited transcription of an unpublished English draft-translation from the original Spanish: SAMAEL AUN WEOR, The Perfect Matrimony & The Cosmic Christ (Barcelona: Alcione Editorial 1991). By this time I had been enrolled in the Theosophical Society. As well as attending evening meetings in Exeter Central Library, I was reading H. P. B. BLAVATSKY (1831-1891), Isis Unveiled, 2 volumes; The Secret Doctrine, 2 volumes; An Abridgement of The Secret Doctrine, edited by ELIZABETH PRESTON & CHRISTMAS HUMPHREYS (London: Theosophical Publishing House, 1966); An Invitation to The Secret Doctrine (Pasadena: Theosophical University Press 1988); On How to Study Theosophy (London: The Theosophical Society in England 1991); The Secret Doctrine, volume 3, edited by Annie Besant (1st edition 1897, reprinted 1910, 1913, 1918, 1921 and 1928; re-issued in 1938 as volume 5 of the 4th Adyar edition - which was reprinted in London in 1950) - p.417:
    "There is a strange law in Occultism which has been ascertained and proven by thousands of years of experience; nor has it failed to demonstrate itself, almost in every case, during the years that the Theosophical Society has been in existence. As soon as anyone pledges himself as a 'Probationer,' certain Occult effects ensue. Of these, the first is the throwing outward of everything latent in the nature of the man; his faults, habits, qualities or subdued desires, whether good, bad or indifferent."
    372-9. “An Index to the published writings of JOAN D'ARCY COOPER, 1927-1982, Ascended Mistress of the Rainbow Programme" and "An Index to Meditations on the Tarot - a Journey into Christian Hermeticism” (Exeter: Creativity House, privately circulated 1992, revised 1996); Mirror of Justice - Abstracts from a Library: A Sequence of Essays in honour of the Nuptial Theology of the Sovereign Lady Mary Most Holy Help of Christians by Divine Conception Mother of G-d & Virgin Queen of All That IS, 1st edition (in private circulation, 18 April 1992); set of 3 Sample Essays for tutorial use, each of slightly less than 500 words: “Books”, “Cats”, “The Chinese Way of Life” (London 1992); The Rainbow Cymbal - Supplementary Volume, a 4th leather-bound volume available for individual consultation by arrangement and adding 630 pages of text and more than 560 references to the accompanying critical apparatus (Exeter, Creativity House, 18 April 1992).

    FOCUS AND CLARITY
    "Each adult citizen of Maltese nationality appreciates that the new watershed date of 11 September 2001 fades into insignificance, if it is compared with either Malta's sacrifice during World War II or the events of the Great Siege of 1565.
       This is not to say that George Bush junior's and Tony Blair's subsequent dismantling of Saddam Hussein's Iraqi administration is devoid of consequences.
       The so called United Nations appears mortally wounded. The American Constitution is overturned. Magna Carta is rendered, in principle, obsolete.
       Malta's entry to the European community and the elevation of Maltese, the only Semitic language written in the Roman alphabet, into an official community language, increase the potential influence on present and future world events of Maltese and Gozitan men and women and their government.
       The 1320 Declaration of Arbroath by which Scotland's nobles and bishops, in the name of the whole people, affirmed their allegiance to Robert the Bruce as their King, has long been recognised by historians as a clear articulation of each nation's right of self-determination.
       Now is the moment emphatically to affirm this right here and abroad.
       Focus and clarity are called for.
       Prayer without good works is no true prayer.
       Goodness is impossible without authentic solidarity on a world-wide scale, but beginning in your own home and on your own doorstep.
       St Paul taught this well, and so did Dun Gorg Preca and San Gwann Bosco. May their examples inspire and guide us in today's challenging situations."
    Colin James Hamer - ZURRIEQ    
    Our powers of what Pierre Teilhard de Chardin's friend Jean Houston has very helpfully termed "polyphrenic kairotic psychosynæsthesia" undoubtedly require much further development, but Faith already teaches those who have ears to hear that no prayer goes unanswered.
    Living Tradition has always, traditionally, been transmitted from mouth to ear, and in dedicating my entire life to the joyful task of continuing that same process quasi-simultaneously in, as my individual, personal logo displayed above has IT: writing, riting, writhing, righting and wrighting, I am deeply conscious of my responsibility as a Director I+N Creativity House for the present and future improvement of interpersonal relationships between some other groups of somewhat less known, but nevertheless significantly important individuals who, unfortunately, currently appear to me to be either mutually estranged or else very much at loggerheads - and that to the benefit of nobody at all, least of all, themselves.
