RETIREMENT SONG - FOREVER YOUNG

John 10:1-10 | Henri Martin | The sheep hear the shepherd's voice

John 10:1-10 The sheep hear the shepherd's voice
 
 
Idylle (Sheep and their Shepherds),
Image by Henri Martin (1860-1943),
Oil on canvas,
Painted circa 1925
© Sold Christie’s London, 25 June 2008, lot 498, for £540,000
Jesus said: ‘I tell you most solemnly, anyone who does not enter the sheepfold through the gate, but gets in some other way is a thief and a brigand. The one who enters through the gate is the shepherd of the flock; the gatekeeper lets him in, the sheep hear his voice, one by one he calls his own sheep and leads them out. When he has brought out his flock, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow because they know his voice. They never follow a stranger but run away from him: they do not recognise the voice of strangers.’
Jesus told them this parable but they failed to understand what he meant by telling it to them.
So Jesus spoke to them again: ‘I tell you most solemnly, I am the gate of the sheepfold. All others who have come are thieves and brigands; but the sheep took no notice of them. I am the gate. Anyone who enters through me will be safe: he will go freely in and out and be sure of finding pasture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I have come so that they may have life and have it to the full.’

 Reflection on the Painting

Jesus often spoke deliberately in cryptic language, leaving His followers and audience wondering about what He meant. Today’s reading is a prime example of that. John even writes ‘Jesus told them this parable but they failed to understand what he meant by telling it to them’. Like any parable, the parable of today reveals the truth to those who seek it, but it also conceals the truth from those who are half-hearted about it. Jesus draws a sharp contrast between the blindness of the Pharisees and Himself; He compares them to false shepherds (whom He calls ‘thieves and brigands’ at the start of our passage); Jesus Himself is the true shepherd.

Sheep are mentioned in the Bible over 500 times, more than any other animal. All throughout Scripture, the close relationship between shepherds and their flocks is praised. The sheep recognise the voice of the shepherd and follow him. The shepherd protects and provides for his flock and even gives his life for them.  And so we come to this lovely painting of sheep by Henri Martin, painted in the Pointillist style. Pointillism is a painting technique using tiny paint dots of various colours, which become blended in the viewer's eye, and create an overall soft, gentle, textured feel to the artwork. This is in contrast to the traditional methods of blending pigments on the painter’s palette. Here the colours get created on the canvas by juxtaposing dots. Looking up close to the canvas, one wouldn’t be able to make out what is painted; only at a distance do we as a viewer see the overall composition. It's the same with some of these more cryptic parables: when reading it up close the message isn’t always clear, but when placed and contemplated in its wider context of the whole of Jesus’ ministry, the beauty of the parable reveals itself.

John 6:60-69 | Claude Vignon | Lord, who shall we go to?

John 6:60-69

 Lord, who shall we go to?
 
 
Lament of Saint Peter,
Image by Claude Vignon (1593-1670),
Oil on canvas,
Painted in 1623
© Cantor Arts Center, Stanford, California
After hearing his doctrine many of the followers of Jesus said, ‘This is intolerable language. How could anyone accept it?’ Jesus was aware that his followers were complaining about it and said, ‘Does this upset you? What if you should see the Son of Man ascend to where he was before?
‘It is the spirit that gives life, the flesh has nothing to offer. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life.
‘But there are some of you who do not believe.’ For Jesus knew from the outset those who did not believe, and who it was that would betray him. He went on, ‘This is why I told you that no one could come to me unless the Father allows him.’ After this, many of his disciples left him and stopped going with him.
Then Jesus said to the Twelve, ‘What about you, do you want to go away too?’ Simon Peter answered, ‘Lord, who shall we go to? You have the message of eternal life, and we believe; we know that you are the Holy One of God.’

 Reflection on the Painting

In today’s Gospel reading we come to a turning point. ‘After this, many of his disciples left him and stopped going with him.' This is Jesus’ own disciples who drew back and were no longer sure whether to stay by His side. So Jesus confronts His disciples saying ‘What about you, do you want to go away too?’  It is clear from that question that He would have let some more of His disciples go if they had wanted to. He does not hold anybody against their will! Even the disciples had a choice at every stage they were with Christ: whether to stay or go. They were not there against their will or because they were forced to. It is really Peter’s words though at the end of our reading which are so beautiful: 'we believe'. Knowing Peter’s character, that believing was the result not just of blind faith in Jesus, but of a maturing process where Peter would have asked himself questions along the lines of: well Jesus, you have done amazing things, but at times you frighten us, you challenge us, you embarrass us even when you come out with strong statements like today, you even frighten us at what might happen, but…. ‘To whom shall we go?’ A beautiful display of unconditional love towards Christ coming from a place of matured faith.

That is why I am sharing a painting today of St Peter, as he is the key in today’s reading. He never wanted to leave, he never quit. He simply had learned so much in these past years and grew exponentially in love for Christ. We can't always understand how God works and what His plans are, but Lord… ‘to whom shall we go?

HOW TO KNOW IF YOU ARE HEALTHY THROUGH CHECKING THE PALM MOUNTS?

The palm contains the information of life and health. According to the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), one's health can be told by reading the palm mounts. Palmistry has been used for diagnosing diseases for a long history. The earliest records of disease diagnosing by palmistry can be found in the oracle bone inscriptions. Then how to know if you are healthy through checking the palm mounts? 

DISEASES CONTROLLED BY THE MOUNTS ON PALM


The Mount of Luna is in charge of mental illness, women's disease, edema, obesity, body odor, peritonitis, dampness, and cold syndrome. 
The Mount of Venus is in charge of kidney disease, stomach disease, kidney deficiency, allergy, and dampness.
The Mount of Mars is in charge of inflammation, high blood pressure, arteriosclerosis, and fever.
The Mount of Jupiter is responsible for hepatobiliary disease, dizziness, stroke, mass formed by blood stasis, and rheumatism.
The Mount of Saturn is in charge of biliary disease, rheumatism, hemorrhoids, depression, osteoporosis, and cold disease.
The Mount of Apollo is in charge of the heart and blood circulation diseases.
The Mount of Mercury rules the nervous system, hearing, language, bipolar disorder, and rheumatism.

HEALTH DIAGNOSIS THRU MOUNT THICKNESS AND LINES

The mounts of palm are named after the planets belonging to metal, wood, water, fire and earth as well as the names of Eight Diagrams, because what the mounts represent are associated with the Five Elements. Good palm mounts are supposed to be thick, bulging and rosy.
Mount of Venus
Located at Gen (the base of the thumb) and belonging to the Earth element, the Mount of Venus represents the function and vitality of spleen, stomach and digestive system. The bulging black or blue veins at the lower Mount of Venus indicate the poor digestive function and stomach illness. If you have messy lines on the Mount of Venus, you will be vulnerable to diseases of reproductive system. The feathery lines here suggest the possible nervous system disease while the color of dark clouds at the lower Mount of Venus implies the poor digestive function.
Mount of Jupiter
Located at Xun (the base of the forefinger) and belonging to the Wood element, the Mount of Jupiter shows the function of stomach, liver and gall. A low, flabby and bloated Mount of Jupiter with messy lines suggests you are vulnerable to diseases of stomach and hepatobiliary system. Also, the Mount of Jupiter corresponds to heart and liver. If it is bloated and has messy lines or bad signs, you will be susceptible to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
Mount of Mercury
Located at Kun (the base of the little finger) and belonging to the Earth element, the Mount of Mercury symbolizes reproductive and respiratory functions. If it has chaotic lines, you will be prone to develop diseases of the digestive system.
Mount of Mars
Belonging to the Wood element, The Mount of Inner Mars or Mars Positive is located at Zhen (palm side, between the Mounts of Jupiter and Venus) and it represents sexual desire, renal function, reproductive and urinary function. The Mount of Outer Mars or Mars Negative is located at Dui (palm side, between the Mounts of Mercury and Luna) and it represents kidney and respiratory system. Well-developed Inner Mars and Outer Mars suggest the strong sexual desire. If your Inner Mars and Outer Mars have messy lines and poor color, you will be vulnerable to diseases of reproductive, urinary and respiratory systems. The Outer Mars cut by straight lines implies a poor respiratory system while a circular mark on the Outer Mars indicates possible visual impairment.
Plain of Mars
Located at Ming Tang in the center of the palm and belonging to the Fire element, the Plain of Mars represents internal heat, brain, nervous centralis and blood circulation system functions. The dark Plain of Mars suggests the recent incidence of a disease. If it is warm and rosy, you must have rising internal heat and suffer from vegetative nervous dysfunction or chronic wasting disease. If it is cold and pale, you must suffer from insufficiency of the spleen and the kidney or have a weak blood circulatory system, and poor endocrine, spleen and stomach functions. The exuberance of internal heat means the hyperactivity of Yang, which will lead to yellow coating on the tongue, hand tremor, red face and tinnitus. Too little internal heat means the deficiency of Yang, which will lead to bluish white coating on the tongue, blood cold, uterus cold and difficulty in getting pregnant.
Mount of Saturn
Located at Li (the base of the middle finger) and belonging to the Fire element, the Mount of Saturn is in charge of heart and blood circulation system. A star sign here suggests you are prone to hypertension. Also, the Mount of Saturn indicates the nervous system function. If it is bloated and has messy lines, you will be vulnerable to nervous system disease, hemorrhoids, paralysis and other diseases.
Mount of Apollo
Located at Li (the base of the ring finger) and belonging to the Fire element, the Mount of Apollo represents the optic nerve, sensory and locomotive organs. If there are miscellaneous lines and an island sign here, you will be prone to develop neurasthenia and eye disease. The Mount of Apollo indicates sensory and cardiac functions, and messy lines here suggest you will be susceptible to neurasthenia, aneurysm, heart disease, visual neurasthenia and other diseases.
Mount of Neptune
Located at Kan (the center of the palm base) and belonging to the Water element, the Mount of Neptune represents kidney, urinary, reproductive and endocrine functions. If the Mount of Neptune is crossed by an oblique line at the end of the Life Line, you will probably suffer from infertility or anovulation characterized by gonads disorder, short thumb, wide and short fingernails, and mean stature. If there are three blue veins stretching here from the wrist, you may also suffer from the diseases mentioned above.
Mount of Luna
Located at Qian (below the Mount of Outer Mars and on the base of the palm) and belonging to the Metal element, the Mount of Luna suggests respiratory, renal, bladder and gynecological diseases and it corresponds to the nervous system. Messy lines here suggest you are vulnerable to neurasthenia, visual deterioration, gout and other diseases. If there is a long and deep vertical line running at your Mount of Luna, you will be susceptible to numbness of limbs.

John 6:52-59 | Alexander Coosemans | My flesh is real food and my blood is real drink

John 6:52-59

 My flesh is real food and my blood is real drink
 
 
Allegory of the Eucharist,
Image by Alexander Coosemans (1627-1689),
Oil on canvas,
Painted in 1654
© MusĂ©e de TessĂ©, Le Mans, France
The Jews then disputed among themselves, saying, "How can this man give us his flesh to eat?" So Jesus said to them, "Very truly, I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood have eternal life, and I will raise them up on the last day; for my flesh is true food and my blood is true drink. Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood abide in me, and I in them. Just as the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so whoever eats me will live because of me."

 Reflection on the Painting

This  rather charming painting of the Allegory of the Eucharist features a juxtaposition of the following elements:
  • grapes of course produce the wine, referring to Christ and His blood
  • the stalks of wheat refer to His Body and the eucharistic bread
  • the two cornucopia flanking the 17th century chalice, symbolise the generosity of Creation
  • the pomegranate symbolises eternal life and divine prosperity
  • the peaches represent virtue and honour
  • the pear halves are symbolic for marital faith
  • the single rose with its many petals represents the wounds of Christ
A gentle light is emanating from the sacred host, set with an embossed image of the crucifixion.

Our Gospel reading today starts with 'The Jews then disputed among themselves, saying, "How can this man give us his flesh to eat?". The people arguing show that our minds cannot always understand God, but our hearts can. Jesus in His replies tells us to move from the mind to the heart. He is telling us not just to simply accept His teachings, but He inviting us to be fully drawn into His Life and that of His Father. He invites us to be all consumed by God. He invites us to let go of our reservations and hesitations and to trust fully in Him… through the Eucharist…
