Dankira and its Saints

When I heard of Dankira ended its service yesterday, I think it's about time for them to show their feast days in this latest installment to commemorate this occasion. So here it is.

[Merry Panic]

August 20 - Sora Asahi

St. Bernard of Clairvaux: 12th century French abbot and confessor, and a major leader in the revitalization of Benedictine monasticism through the nascent Order of Cistercians. There he preached an immediate faith, in which the intercessor was the Virgin Mary. In 1139, Bernard assisted at the Second Council of the Lateran. He subsequently denounced the teachings of Peter Abelard to the pope, who called a council at Sens in 1141 to settle the matter. Bernard was the first Cistercian placed on the calendar of saints, and was canonized by Pope Alexander III in 1174, and Pope Pius VIII bestowed Bernard the title of Doctor of the Church. His major shrine can be found in Troyes Cathedral.

March 20 - Mahiru Hinata

St. John Nepomucene (John of Nepomuk): 14th century priest and martyr who was drowned in the Vltava river at the behest of Wenceslaus IV of Bohemia (Czech Republic). Later accounts state that he was the confessor of the queen of Bohemia and refused to divulge the secrets of the confessional. On the basis of this account, John of Nepomuk is considered the first martyr of the Seal of the Confessional, a patron against defamation and, because of the manner of his death, a protector from floods and drowning. He is the patron saint of the Spanish Naval Infantry.

November 24 - Reiji Yano

The Vietnamese Martyrs: The Vatican estimates the number of Vietnamese martyrs at between 130,000 and 300,000. Pope St. John Paul II decided to canonize those whose names are known and unknown, giving them a single feast day. One of the most prominent person of the group is Andrew Dũng-Lạc, who was born to a peasant family and is ordained a priest in 1823. Many years later in 1998, he and the rest of the martyrs were canonized by Pope St. John Paul II. Among the number of the martyrs, there were 97 Vietnamese, 11 Dominican missionaries from Spain, and 10 French belonged to the Paris Foreign Mission Society; 59 were lay people and the rest of them are religious and or members of the clergy.

February 17 - Akira Shido

Seven Holy Founders of the Servite Order: The seven holy founders consisted of Alexis Falconieri, Amadeus of the Amidei, Hugh dei Lippi Uggucioni, Benedetto dell' Antella, Gherardino di Sostegno, Buonfiglio dei Monaldi and Giovanni di Buonagiunta. On January 1888, Pope Leo XIII canonized all seven of them, and their feast was inserted in the General Roman Calendar for celebration on 11 February, the anniversary of the granting of canonical approval to the order in 1304. In the 1969 revision of the calendar, 17 February, the date of death of Alexis Falconieri was judged to be more appropriate.

December 11 - Noel Gekkoin

Pope St. Damasus I: 37th bishop of Rome who reigned for 18 years. He presided over the Council of Rome of 382 that determined the canon or official list of sacred scripture, and spoke out against major heresies in the church (including Apollinarianism and Macedonianism) and encouraged production of the Vulgate Bible with his support for Jerome. He helped reconcile the relations between the Church of Rome and the Church of Antioch, and encouraged the veneration of martyrs.

June 27 - Kei Kagemiya

Our Lady of Perpetual Help (Our Lady of Perpetual Succour): A Marian title represented in a celebrated 15th-century Byzantine icon also associated with the same Marian apparition. The icon is originated from the Keras Kardiotissas Monastery and has been in Rome since 1499, and today, it is permanently enshrined in the Church of Saint Alphonsus, where the official Novena to Our Mother of Perpetual Help text is prayed weekly. In 1867, Pope Pius IX granted the image its Canonical Coronation along with its present title. The Redemptorist Congregation of priests and brothers are the only religious order currently entrusted by the Holy See to protect and propagate a Marian religious work of art. Due to promotion by the Redemptorist Priests since 1865, the image has become very popular among Roman Catholics, and modern reproductions are oftentimes displayed in residential homes, commercial establishments, and public transportation.

[Theater Bell]

May 12 - Seito Tsubaki

Bl. Imelda Lambertini: Italian laywoman, virgin and mystic. Her parents were devout Catholics and were known for their charity and generosity to the underprivileged of Bologna. On her fifth birthday, she requested to receive Holy Eucharist; however the custom at the time was that children did not receive their First Holy Communion until it reached the age of fourteen. On the day of the vigil of the Ascension, she knelt in prayer and the 'Light of the Host' was reportedly witnessed above her head by the Sacristan, who then fetched the priest so he could see. After seeing this miracle, the priest felt compelled to admit her to receiving the Eucharist. Immediately after receiving it, Lambertini went back to her seat, and decided to stay after mass and pray. Later when a nun came to get Lambertini for supper, she found Lambertini still kneeling with a smile on her face. The nun called her name, but she did not stir, so she lightly tapped Imelda on the shoulder, at which Imelda collapsed to the floor dead. Beatified by Pope Leo XII in 1826, she is the patroness of First Communicants.

July 20 - Soma Yagami

St. Apollinaris of Ravenna: 1st century Syrian bishop and martyr, whom the Roman Martyrology describes as 'a bishop who, according to tradition, while spreading among the nations the unsearchable riches of Christ, led his flock as a good shepherd and honored the Church of Classis near Ravenna by a glorious martyrdom.' A noted miracle worker, Apollinaris is considered especially effective against gout, venereal disease and epilepsy. His relics are at the Basilica of Sant'Apollinare Nuovo and the 6th century Benedictine Basilica of Sant'Apollinare in Classe, both in Ravenna and in Saint Lambert's church in Düsseldorf, Germany.

November 11 - Nozomu Miki

St. Martin of Tours: Confessor and the third bishop of Tours. One of the most familiar and recognizable Christian saints in Western tradition. Martin converted to Christianity at a young age and served in the Roman cavalry in Gaul, but left military service at some point prior to 361, when he became a disciple of Hilary of Poitiers, establishing the monastery at Ligugé. He is best known for the account of his using his military sword to cut his cloak in two, to give half to a beggar clad only in rags in the depth of winter. His shrine in Tours became a famous stopping-point for pilgrims on the road to Santiago de Compostela in Spain. He is the patron of beggars, wool-weavers and tailors, as well as the patron of the United States Army Quartermaster Corps even though he detested violence.

[Sanzensekai]

September 18 - Yukari Wakakusa

St. Joseph of Cupertino: Italian friar from the Conventual Franciscans, a branch of the Franciscan order. He was said to have been remarkably unclever, but prone to miraculous levitation and intense ecstatic visions that left him gaping. Canonized as saint by Pope Clement XIII in 1767, he is the patron of mental handicaps, examinations, aviation and astronauts.

June 13 - Mitsukuni Minamoto

St. Anthony of Padua: Franciscan Portuguese friar and priest who is noted by his contemporaries for his powerful preaching, expert knowledge of scripture, and undying love and devotion to the poor and the sick, he was one of the most quickly canonized saints in church history. Although he is known as the patron of lost items, his major shrine can be found in Padua, Italy. In January 1946, he is proclaimed a Doctor of the Church by Pope Pius XII, and is given the title of Doctor Evangelicus (Evangelical Doctor).

April 28 - Oboro Kiriyama

St. Louis-Marie Grignion de Montfort (Louis de Monfort): French priest and confessor, who was known in his time as a preacher and was made a missionary apostolic by Pope Clement XI. As well as preaching, he found time to write a number of books which went on to become classic Catholic titles and influenced several popes, and he is known for his particular devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary and the practice of praying the Rosary. He is considered as one of the early writers in the field of Mariology. His most notable works regarding Marian devotions are contained in Secret of the Rosary and True Devotion to Mary. Monfort is canonized as a saint two years after World War II under the pontificate of Pope Pius XII.

[TOXIC]

October 9 - Ageha Kurenai

St. Louis Bertrand: Spanish Dominican friar, confessor, missionary, and religious brother who is known as the 'Apostle of South America.' After his ordination by St. Thomas of Villanova, he went to South America for his missionary work. According to legend, a deadly draught was administered to him by one of the native priests. Through Divine interposition, the poison failed to accomplish its purpose. There is a town festival, called La Tomatina in Buñol, Valencia, in his honor along with Mare de Déu dels Desemparats.

April 12 - Shiki Janome

Pope St. Julius I: 35th successor of St. Peter who reigned for 15 years and is credited with splitting the birth of Christ into two distinct celebrations (Epiphany and the Nativity) as well as asserting the authority of the pope over the Arian Eastern bishops. After his death in 352 AD, he is succeeded by Pope Liberius.

January 12 - Tsukumo Busujima

St. Marguerite Bourgeoys: French nun who is known as the founder of the Congregation of Notre Dame of Montreal in the colony of New France, now part of the province of Québec in Canada. She is also significant for developing one of the first uncloistered religious communities in the Catholic Church. She was canonized in 1982 and declared a saint by the Catholic Church, the first female saint of Canada.

[Black Meteor Camp (B.M.C.)]

January 31 - Atago Rentaro

St. John Bosco: Italian priest, educator, confessor and writer who is popularly known as 'Don Bosco' as well as the 'Father and Teacher of Youth'. While working in Turin, where the population suffered many of the ill-effects of industrialization and urbanization, he dedicated his life to the betterment and education of street children, juvenile delinquents, and other disadvantaged youth. He developed teaching methods based on love rather than punishment, a method that became known as the Salesian Preventive System. John was an ardent devotee of Mary, mother of Jesus, under the title Mary Help of Christians. He later dedicated his works to De Sales when he founded the Salesians of Don Bosco, based in Turin. He also founded the Institute of the Daughters of Mary Help of Christians, a religious congregation of nuns dedicated to the care and education of poor girls together with Maria Domenica Mazzarello, and he taught Dominic Savio, of whom he wrote a biography that helped the young boy be canonized.

September 6 - Habashiri Ginko

Zechariah the Prophet: He was a person that can be found in the Hebrew Bible and traditionally considered the author of the Book of Zechariah, the 11th of the Twelve Minor Prophets. He was a prophet of the Kingdom of Judah, and, like the prophet Ezekiel, was of priestly extraction. The Roman Catholic Church honors him with a feast day assigned to this date.

August 4 - Tsubaki Kento

St. John Vianney: French priest and confessor who is known as the patron saint of parish priests. He is often referred to as the 'Curé d'Ars', internationally known for his priestly and pastoral work in his parish in Ars, France, because of the radical spiritual transformation of the community and its surroundings. Catholics attribute this to his saintly life, mortification, persevering ministry in the sacrament of confession, and ardent devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary. His major shrine can be found in Ars-sur-Formans.

Saint of the Day – 9 October – St Louis Bertrand O.P. (1526-1581) “Apostle of South America” – Dominican Priest, Missionary, Preacher, Confessor, Teacher, Spiritual Director, Miracle-Worker – born as Luis Beltrán on 1 January 1526 at Valencia, Spain and died on 9 October 1581 of natural causes at Valencia, Spain. Patronages – Buñol; New Granada; Colombia.

Saint Louis Bertrand was born in the year 1526, the oldest of the eight children of his good Christian parents, at Valencia in Spain. He was in every way a model of modesty and obedience and it was foreseen that God had some particular role for him. He devoted himself to the sick in the hospitals. He desired to enter the Order of Saint Dominic but for some time could not obtain his parents’ permission. Finally, in 1545, he became professed in the Dominican Order, then was ordained a priest in 1547 when he was only 21 years old, according to the desire of his Superiors. In 1551, at the age of twenty-five, he was made master of novices and in this post he formed many great servants of God. In demeanour he was grave and apparently without any sense of humour, yet withal possessed of a gentle and sweet disposition that greatly endeared him to those with whom he came in contact. It is said that despite his strictness, he was so gentle that his chastisements were more agreeable to his novices than the favours of their best friends.

In 1560, when the plague broke out in Valencia, his Superiors, not wanting to lose him, sent him elsewhere for a time, he preached with great success and was endowed with the spirit of prophecy. He continued his preaching when recalled to Valencia. In 1562 he obtained leave to embark for Carthagena in the American mission and there converted vast multitudes to the Faith. He hoped to obtain the grace of martyrdom there, but God conserved his life. He was favoured with the gift of miracles and, after praying for the gift to be understood without an interpreter, since one of those had disappointed him seriously, he preached in his mother tongue, Spanish but was understood by all the natives of various tribes.

In his mission at Tubera he himself baptised 10,500 Indians, without counting those his companions baptised, and obliged them to burn their idols and the sites of their sacrifices. Often his gentleness charmed his worst enemies. He preached also at Capicoa and Paluato, having established missions there . He refused all remuneration -he brought down rain after a drought. He was poisoned by some pagans who had suffered a reproach but the poison did not harm him and the nativeswere converted by the miracle. He went to many other places, preaching and healing the sick – again he was poisoned without effect. There was no one who did not consider him a Saint, sent for the benefit of the new continent.

After seven years he returned to Spain to plead the cause of the Indians, oppressed and given bad example by his own countrymen. He used his own growing reputation for sanctity, as well as family and other contacts, to lobby on behalf of the native peoples he had encountered, as well as serving in his native diocese of Valencia. There he also became a spiritual counsellor to many, including St Teresa of Ávila. He was not permitted, however, to return and labour among his beloved peoples. He spent his remaining days preaching, labouring for the conversion of different cities and again forming the novices of the Order at Valencia. He was elected Prior of that convent and never had a more charitable or more zealous Superior been seen there.

At length, after suffering from a long and painful illness, he was carried from the pulpit in the Cathedral at Valencia to the bed from which he never rose. He died on the day he had foretold, 9 October 1581, at the age of 55 years.

He was Canonised by Pope Clement X in 1671.

There is a statue of Louis Bertrand on the north colonnade of St Peter’s Basilica in Rome. The festival known as La Tomatina is held in Buñol, Valencia, in honour of the town’s patron saints, Louis Bertrand and the Mare de Déu dels Desemparats – Mother of God of the Defenceless, a title of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Festival Audit: La Tomatina

As a part of our global festivals audit, we started looking into some international festivals that are unique or interesting. We chose to look into the Spanish ‘La Tomatins’ festival, the worlds largest food fight.

Held in Buñol, 40km west of Valencia, La Tomatina is a tomato-throwing spectacle that draws more than 20,000 revellers each year and involves 120 tonnes of tomatoes. The food-fighting festival began in 1945, but it’s not known why, which begs the question of what it means for an event to be deemed a ‘festival’. The festival is now held in honour of the town's patron saint, St Louis Bertrand, and the Mare de Déu dels Desemparats (Mother of God of the Defenceless), becoming an officially recognised celebration in 1952 despite its ban during the 1970s for having no religious significance.

Day 25: June 5 - Valencia

Today, we woke around 10 or 11 AM, which was a blessing to my tired, burning eyes after my all nighter. Katie and I had gotten wind of a walking tour that the hostel provided at 11:45 AM. We soon joined the tour, led by a chef on his free day (whose name escapes me as I write this a month+ after these events). He gave us a basic rundown of the area on our way to the Turia Fountain, leading us through a small market close by that sold clay paella pots, as well as commenting on several living statue street performers (one was a guy dressed in an Alien costume, another was a man pointed gold in a sailor suit, another was a man in a suit, and the fourth, (the one the guide was most impressed with) was a man dressed as a garden gnome/sprite, which was very intricate.

When we reached the Turia Fountain, fountain meant to represent rivers in the form of men, in Plaza De La Virgen, we were let loose to explore for about a quarter hour.

Katie and I stuck our head into a nearby basilica (Basílica de la Mare de Déu dels Desemparats) but the congregation inside had just adjourned so we didn’t have much time to look around. It was a really cool tour because there were so many other travelers from all over the world on the tour. From my notes, there was someone from the Domitican Republic, two from Germany, one from Austria, one from Galicia (north-western Spain), one from Korea, two from Utah, one from Florida (aside from Katie and I), one from Iceland, and one from Manchester. The highlight of the walk had to be seeing the gate of Valencia, Torres de Serranos, where the tour concluded and where we got the opportunity to grab a few pints with the “wolf pack”, as our guide had dubbed us. We went to 100 Montaditos where they had a special for a BOGO on a pint and a “montadito” (a small sandwich). While we all bonded over food, we got to learn a little about each other, talked a little politics, and played a general knowledge game (which was pretty fun considering that the things considered as general knowledge did not match up for Americans and Europeans).

We returned to the hostel around 4-4:30 PM and took a much needed siesta, while doing a little laundry. Around 8:30 PM, Katie and I decided to check out the place that was recommended to us by our tour guide as the best place to have paella. We found the place, called Bacco D.O.C. pretty quickly and ordered an appetizer, Valencian paella, and dessert. (Sadly, the dessert outdid the paella as both Katie and I found the paella very salty, as well as there being rabbit in the paella (which I thought was good until I was able to identify a body part).)

We returned to the hostel around 10 PM after the disappointing meal (but with leftovers I refused to leave at the restaurant). We conversed with a German guy named Moritz in the hostel till about 12:30 AM and I blogged a little before going to sleep, ready for another day. We were going to Madrid tomorrow!

Syra Coffee- Latte

Well, everyone is sleeping and so I woke up early and snuck out to get coffee. I am so determined to visit many coffee shops in Barcelona. E woke up as I was leaving and we agreed to meet at my second spot. In the meanwhile, I enjoyed a quiet stroll to Syra Coffee and took advantage of how empty and tranquil the shop/ street was. Syra is a hole-in-the-wall sized shop, but it’s well-lit and nice. It’s simple wooden decor reminds me of many coffee shops I’ve been to in Europe, to be honest, but it also reminds me of Hola Coffee in Madrid. Perhaps these coffee shops are all connected in some way.

Anyways, as I drank my coffee at the low bar against the wall, I wrote postcards and then looted the shops stash of Barcelona neighborhood Trend Maps. I wish Madrid had something like this. It would get people to really check out the different neighborhoods rather than always going to Malasaña or La Latina.

Rating:

Taste: good… 3/5

Service: friendly… 3/5

Price: 1,90; not bad… 4/5

D4DJ (Dig Delight Direct Drive DJ) and its Saints - Photon Maiden

These girls here are working under an entertainment agency. Here are the ladies from Photon Maiden!

May 10 - Saki Izumo

St. John of Ávila: 16th century Spanish priest, preacher, scholastic author, and religious mystic who known for his nickname, the 'Apostle of Andalusia', due to his extensive ministry in that region. He attended the Universities of Salamanca and Alcalá, where he studied philosophy and theology under the celebrated Spanish theologian Domingo de Soto. After being ordained a priest in 1525 at Alcalá, he gave the fortune inherited from his parents to charity. He reform of clerical life (he was a champion of celibacy), considered to be his finest achievement, influenced such eminent disciples as Francis Borgia, John of God, Teresa of Ávila, and Luís of Granada. Canonized by Pope Paul VI on the Feast of the Visitation in 1970, his major shrine can be found in the Church of the Incarnation in Montilla, Córdoba, Spain, and is the patron of the Spanish secular clergy.

April 10 - Ibuki Niijima

St. Fulbert of Chartres: 11th century French writer and bishop. He was a pupil of Gerbert of Aurillac, who would later on to become Pope Sylvester II. He was responsible for the advancement of the Nativity of the Virgin’s feast day on September 8 and for one of the many reconstructions of the Chartres Cathedral. Of the writings that can be verifiably attributed to Fulbert, the bulk consists of his letters. His most famous letter was to Duke William V of Aquitaine on the duties of feudal lord and vassal. He also wrote to fellow churchmen on a variety of liturgical issues including the appointment of bishops, excommunication, and obedience. He wrote approximately 24 poems which have sometimes been described as humorous, such as his poem about the monk in the desert, and most of Fulbert’s hymns were written to glorify the Virgin.

January 30 - Towa Hanamaki

St. Hippolytus of Rome: 3rd century bishop and martyr who was also the first antipope, and was one of the most important Christian theologians, whose provenance, identity and corpus remain elusive to scholars and historians. He was a leader of the Roman church during the pontificate of St. Zephyrinus, whom he attacked as being a modalist (one who conceives that the entire Trinity dwells in Christ and who maintains that the names Father and Son are only different designations for the same subject). Hippolytus, rather, was a champion of the Logos doctrine that distinguished the persons of the Trinity. He conceived of God as a unit who, while indivisible, was plural. The church order, known as the Apostolic Tradition, is now generally attributed to him and illuminates the rites and liturgies in use at Rome in the early 3rd century.
