II. During the ages the Christian religion conquered unimaginable places. From a story entitled "Varfaam" we are in formed that during the reign of Constantine the Great there was a king in India called Avenir, Because someone stated that his newborn son, loasa1, who was very handsome, was to become a Christian, the king decided to close him in a remote palace. He then appointed l amous and wise teachers for his son. These teachers were ordered never to speak to him about the Christian religion. As loasal grew he showed his intellectual and psychical talents. He wondered why his lather had him shut away lar Irom everyone. One day a blind old man revealed to him the truth. From that day on loasal asked God to reveal to him the new laith. His desire was answered. A Christian priest called Varlaam dressed as a tradesman was able to enter the prince's room. There he instructed loasal and baptised him a Christian. In the beginning, when Aven ir heard 01 this, he became wild with rage; but later persuaded by his son, he also became a Christian. After Avenir's death loasal presented another king to his people because he decided to live in a hermitage where he lived a hermit's lile lor the rest 01 his days. Fr L.

SUNDA Y 4 AUGUST (Matt. 14: 22-34) ''And when (Jesus) had sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when the evening was come, he was there alone" (v. 23). Three fundamental aspects of prayer are underlined in this si ngle verse. First of all, Jesus went away to pray; He moved to a mountain that was some distance from where He was before. This move, however, which has been imitated by thousands throughout the centuries, is not so much separation from the world as union with Him who is the centre of the world. It is not by chance that Jesus ascends a mountain in order to pray: He does not merely remove Himself from the multitude but rather He sets off on an upward journey to meet God. This does not. of course, mean that one cannot meet God in the hustle and bustle of city life, in the routine of daily life. But only when one has come to know God personally, meeting Him on the mountain of prayer, is one able to recognise God in a crowd and to discern His Word in the noise of a city. Furthermore, only when we have faced God on the Mt. Sinal of our heart are we able to reflect God in the various moral decisions that we face at each moment. Secondly, we are told that Christ chose to pray in the evening, when it was dark. It is precisely when the light of this world fades that the Light that is Christ (John 8: 12) shines. It is when we face a dead end that God opens doors. When we reach the abyss of the waters below (as Peter does in v. 30) and the enemy is close behind us (as in the case of Moses and the Israelites), then God raises us and opens up the Red Sea of our life. Likewise, it is at night, during prayer, that the heavens open and one is able to be face to face with God. The word for "God" in Greek (Theos) stems from the verb "to see". The Fathers say that the food of the angels is the sight of God. And in the Liturgy we speak of the many-eyed Cherubim - this is what Paradise consists of, namely the vision of God. Prayer, then, is the mountain on which Christ reveals Himself to us; it is the Mt. Tabor of our heart. Finally, Matthew tells us that Jesus was on the mountain "and He was there alone". The Fathers view man as a microcosm, as a small universe. Within man is the entire creation, visible and invisible; within man are the heavenly hosts of angels; within man is God. And prayer is a personal dialogue with the God whom one knows, trusts and believes in. It signifies an attitude of listening to Him of whom one is wholly conscious from within. In prayer, therefore, one is alone but never lonely. In the stillness of prayer, the Word of God can be heard, We are always in God's presence, even when we feel that "our God has forsaken us" (Matt. 27: 46). It is often through the painful cross of the Golgotha within our heart that God hears our prayer and has mercy. Fr J. C. 103

5 Report From The Second Queensland Greek Orthodox Youth Conference 5, 6, 7th July, 1985 I The Queensland Greek Orthodox Youth Council constituting representatives of the various Greek Youth Associations in Queensland, emanated from the inaugural Queensland Greek Orthodox Youth Forum of It is this Youth Council that after months of preparation and anticipation, had the immense satisfaction of seeing their efforts come to life on the 5th, 6th and 7th July 1985, at the Second Queensland Greek Orthodox Youth Conference at Griffith University. Approximately eighty delegates orginating from au parts of the State converged on Brisbane, fifteen of whom arri ved from country regions, these being Rockhamplon, Innisfail, Townsville, Home Hill, Cairns, Gold Coast and Toowoomba. The Conference was conducive to genuine feelings 01 consideration and concern hence creating and maintaining a very warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout the proceedings of the two day Conference. The Papers presented by two highly versatile and confident speakers induced a deep sense of unity, friendship and understanding amongst those present. The attractive atmosphere created eliminated any inhibitions, thus encouraging a broad scope of views and opinions to be voiced. Reaching out tothe young people present and to the level of their convictions is the basis of communication and this was ultimately achieved. Conference proceedings commenced on Friday Evening, 5th July. All delegates were formally registered and subsequently were welcomed by the spoken words of His Gace Bishop Ezekiel of Oervis: The Consul- General of Greece, Mr Alex Freeleagus; and the President of the Greek Orthodox Community of St. George, Mr George Pippos. On Saturday, 6th July 9.30 a.m., Mr George Pippos initiated proceedings by emphatically stressing the importance and need for our youth's involvement in the Greek Community. Following this Mr Pippos introduced our guest speaker for the morning, the Minister for Welfare Services, Youth and Ethnic Affairs, The Hon. Geoff Muntz, who officially opened the Second Queensland Greek Orthodox Youth Conference. Mr Muntz spoke very highly and in admiration of the accomplishments of Greek-Australians in the wider Australian Community, in the rea lms of Business and Politics. The speech given by Mr Muntz imbued in us all an air of pride and encouragement which we should be highly proud of. The ensuing two days were influenced and enhanced by the potent words and presence o f our two Guest Speakers, Reverend Deacon John Chryssavgis, and Mr Emmanuel Anthony and of course His Grace Bishop EzekieL As previously mentioned two papers were presented: PAPER ONE: Speaker - Mr Emmanuel Anthony Topic - "Tradition and Life" Mr Anthony outlined several aspects of Tradition from a Greek Orthodox viewpoint and the substantial relevance of tradition to our lives today. Mr Anthony states that Tradition and Life is of crucial importance to all of us in that tradition, "provides the accumulated wisdom of the past, and by doing so it gives perspective to life today". I f we can understand and accept our tradition this ultimately wi ll engender an understanding of our cultural identity which is essential if we are to interact effectively with life around us. Mr Anthony also states that, "Our family harmony, our capacity to deal with the stresses of life in a bi-cultural environment, our very happiness and self-image. are all profoundly influenced by our sense of identity." PAPER TWO: Speaker - Reverend Deacon John Chryssavgis Topic - "The Liturgy as Tradition and Tradition as Liturgy". His Grace Bishop Ezekiel introduced Father John's talk which was entitled "The Liturgy as Tradition and Tradition as Liturgy". The introduction given by His Grace bore encouragement in that he pointed out that Father John himself came "from you", the youth. The talk itself dealt with the Liturgy as being the fundamental expression of Traditio n. In short, everything in the Liturgy proclaims the same thing: Christ, who is not only our past, but present and future. this truth was expressed throughout the paper through the various sub-themes: The Universality of the Eucharist, The Liturgy as Openness, the Liturgy as Transfiguration, Tradition as the Living Christ. The paper generated much discussion amongst participants in their various workshop groups. Many young people, particularly those from country areas, expressed frustration at knowing so little about their faith. Some shared that for the first time they were given some understanding of the Liturgy; that it was not just some "religious ritual but a mutual act - of both God and the faithful." What was most encouraging was that after the talk and discussions, many participants resolved that they would like to participate in the Liturgy and not merely attend as 'spectators'. Both papers presented ignited a great deal of thought and consequent discussion amongst delegates and throughout the workshop sessions. One particular aspect of the Conference which will leave a lasting impression on Brisbane delegates were the reports delivered by the Intrastate delegates on the activities of their respective Communities and Youth Groups. Although the attendance was lower than for the previous Conference this did not detract from the enthusiasm of those present. The recommendations resulting from the Conference were indicative of the concern for th e enhancement of close ties between Greek Youth in Queensland. Members of the Queensland Greek Orthodox Youth Council must be congratulated for their efforts. RESOLUTIONS 1. That as soon as possible, two of the Executive of either the Queensland Greek Orthodox Youth Council or their Youth Association are chosen to be Youth representatives on all Greek Orthodox Community Committees in Queensland. 2. That there be a delegation of Greek youths in a unified expression of concern against the nuclear arms race - possibly an expression in writing through the Queensland Greek Orthodox Youth Council to State and Commonwealth leaders. 3. That the Queensland Greek Orthodox Youth Council and its individual Youth Groups include the out-of-brisbane Greek Orthodox Youth Clubs on their mailing list. 4. That the various Youth Groups with the co-ordination of the Queensland Greek Orthodox Youth Council provide financial assistance and support to further the development of the library of the Theological College of St. Andrew in Sydney, through donations and social functions especially prior to the commencement of the College in January That the past President of a Youth Association remain as a Queensland Greek Orthodox Youth Council Committee Member for the term immediately fo llowing his term in addition to the new President of his respective Youth Association. 6. That the Queensland Greek Orthodox Youth Council hold an annual sports day (Athletics) and recommend at the next National Forum, that a National Sports Day be held annually where each stale has a representative team. 7. That a Steering Committee be formed to look into the possibility of bringing Greek Youth from cities outside of Brisbane to Brisbane for a long weekend to attend for instance the Paniyiri, a Queensland Greek Orthodox Youth Council Meeting, Dances, etc. M.

6 The Theotokos and Human Suffering The traditional fast of August would be a form of mere "fakirism" or some kind of worldly "diet", if it did not have as sure basis the daily service of the Supplication to the Virgin Mary and surely certain meditations - even though fragmentary - of Orthodox contrition and repentance. Within the framework of such fragmentary meditations, we would like to sketch these simple lines as a humble offering to the Theotokos, "who is purer than the radiance of the sun". One need not be a pessimist, fatalistic or lacking in faith in order to accept from human eperience - both his own and that of people around him - that here is no surer and no more concrete phenomenon in this world than the experience and phenomenon of suffering: both physical and spiritual pain; occasional and chronic pain; small and great pain; si lent and crying pain. The reality of suffering in this life is so common and so widespread that we could say that it was with some justification that the known Cartesian equation "I think, therefore I exist"was changed into "I suffer, therefore I exist", Nevertheless, our wise people continue to believe and to confess with endurance that "even with so much suffering, stil/life is sweet". But someone could ask: what is this power that allows us not to lose courage and our love for life? We would answer: surely it is not selfishness or egoism. For life - especially after a certain age - is not always pleasant. Sometimes it becomes a daily humiliation, a test, and at times even a real debasement. It is this humiliation, this test and this debasement that those lacking in courage and those lacking in faith do not tolerate, and sometimes they resort to suicide. Yet the majority of people, on the contrary, have an innate - one would say - optimism that after any bitter trial there will follow a time of joy. This silent optimism is at heart a faith and a trust in the goodness and omnipotence of God. And irrespective of whether it is always expressed as prayer or not, the depth of this sentiment is purely religious. This is why one has the strength to face so many storms. While, however, some people have a blurred religious feeling of pessimism, Christians have a bright motherly figure to lay down their suffering as helpless children, namely the Virgin Mary. Since she, too, suffered to the highest degree and yet did not succumb, each Christian can invoke her mercy and intercessions. But just as in the case of Christ, Christians of the West emphasise more His humanity and underline more the Feast of Christmas than the Resurrection, likewise in the case of Ihe Virgin Mary they emphasise more what the Virgin Mary suffered and not what she is able c,., I, 'A"o rryv XElpo8foia Ei~ ~Apxovra L1166aKoAov TOO rivouc; TOO 'AKa6flj.JoiKOD K. n. npepea6l<f], nou lv/ve de; rrlv norplgpxlla'j 'E(apxia TOO navayiau T6 au rnmw Ae"vwv). 106

7 I I- ro ao. Ana so mey name ner "Marer uolorosa" ana "Marer Lacrimosa". Whereas the Orthodox, starting precisely from what the Virgin Mary suffered and how she suffered, conclude and recognise what she is able to do at each moment through her intercessions. And so they name her "Merciful", "Sweet-Kissing", "Guide", "Comforter", "Quick Listener", "Liberator", "Queen of all" etc. Nevertheless, there is onecountry and one Theotokos in which the worship of Orthodox and Roman Catholics converges so much that one would for a moment think that there is no difference in this case, though they would differ in so many other instances. We Jefer to Poland and its famous "Black Madonna" in Chestochova. We recently visited this Polish national pilgrimage, and all Orthodox - clergy and lay -had the vivid impression that we were at our Tinos or Russia's Smolensk. But first let us consider the icon itself. It is a purely Byzantine icon which tradition dates back to the 6th or 5th century. It depicts a delicate and sorrowful Virgin Mary whose lips press her pain tightly with such endurance and willingness, just as her veil that envelopes her royal head. This famous icon has been through many national adventures, being at times stolen from the Poles and again regained by the Poles. All these ordeals have left a vivid blackness on the surface of this sacred icon; hence, it appears, its name "Black Madonna". But that which strikes one even more are the multitudes of the faithful that continually gather there in order to pay their respects and to be blessed. We saw thousands of people in unending queues arriving in the courtyard of the Church on their knees right up to the sacred stand on which "the Queen of the Poles" (as she is known) is set high up and in full sp lendour. Men and women of every age and profession, dressed in working or office clothing, girls and boys in modern appearance with jeans and peasant's bags, arrive every day kneeling and seeking protection and relief for the uncertainties and sufferings of life. So we can say that beyond and above the differences of Christians between East and West, the Virgin Mary stands for the faithful as the rainbow that "unites those things that are divided". As a compassionate Mothershe accepts the supplications even of Mohammedan women, when milk stops from their breasts and gives it back to 'them through her fervent prayer to God. And all these Simple or wonderful deeds are done in the same spontaneous and natural manner, regardless whether it is at Tinos or Kythera, at Chestochowa or Fatima. at Lourdes or Smolensk. The Virgin Mary was the noblest creature on ea rth; this is why God offered her as a gift and benefit to the entire human race. For God was pleased with her absolute obedience and humility even before she was born; He knew her in His eternal Foreknowledge. This striking truth and doctrine is given to us epigrammatically by the great Theologian and Father of our Church. Gregory Palamas who says about the Virgin Mary that, through her intercessions, she covers the entire period from Creation by being "the cause of all before her, and the protector of all after her". + A.

This ancient hymn is used also in the Orthros at the end of the Great Doxology, and, in almost every office, as part of the short petitions preceeding the Lord's prayer. There seem to be more than one account of the origin of the Trisagion Hymn. However, tradition connects the revelation of this hymn with an earthquake that shook Constantinople before 450 AD. It is reported that the earthquake was catastrophic and Emperor Theodosius II with the Patriarch Proclus, gathered with the people outside of the town asking God to have mercy upon them. Suddenly, a young boy was taken up into the air where he heard the angels exclaim the Trisagion Hymn. When the boy returned to earth and told the crowd what the angels were singing, the people took up the same cry and the earthquake ceased. The memory of this miracle is kept on September 25th and some details of these events are recorded in the Menaion for this day. The popularity of this hymn also stems from the fact that it was among the exclamations made by the Fathers at the 4th Ecumenical Council in the Chalcedon in 415 AD. Later, when it became subject to dogmatic controversy, the Trisagion hymn came to be understood as a common statement of faith, a communal declaration of praise and adoration to the Holy Trinity. At the Small Entrance, by the singing of the Trisagion Hymn we raise our thoughts to heaven and attempt to follow and unite ourselves with the angels in praise, ascribing sancti ty at God. So the angels and mankind form one Church, a single choir, because of the coming of Christ who was of both heaven and earth. Through the singing of this hymn and prayer, the Church arouses believers to spiritual contemplation of the Lord of Glory whom the heavenly powers extol, to repent of their sins and to turn to Him for mercy and grace bestowing aid. We may recall the vision of the prophet Isaiah. He saw the throne of God surrounded by holy angels who sang, "Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord of Hosts". Shaken by this vision, the prophet cried, "I am a man of unclean lips and I dwell in the midst of people of unclean lips... " (Isaiah 6: 1-5). Here, as else where, much can also be learnt from a study of the si lent priestly prayers. Here, the beautiful prayer of the Trisagion hymn summarizes the theology expressed in this hymn. To God, who rests in the holies (Isaiah 57: 15. LX X), the seraphim sing the thrice-holy hymn (Isaiah 6: 3). He who created mankind in His own image and likeness (Genesis 1: 26-27), gives wisdom to those who ask, and is not angry with the sinner (Isaiah 54: 8-9) but gives salvation to those who repent (2 Corinthians 7: 10). We ask our Master, to accept from our mouths, the mouths of sinners, the Trisagion Hymn; to pardon us, sanctifying our bodies and souls; and grant us to serve Him in holiness all the days of our life (Luke 1: 74-75).
