*****. sacred time (2) legal provision today for public sacred time and private rights to time for religious purposes
http://www.ncl.ac.uk/nuls/research/wpapers/hill1.html
Newcastle Law School Working Papers 2000/09 This paper was delivered at Newcastle University, at a conference on Thursday 2 November 2000, organised by Newcastle Law School, together with the Department of Religious Studies, under the title:
LAW AND THE SACRED: LEGAL PROBLEMS OF TIME AND SPACE.
NOTE ON THE CONFERENCE:
We live in a society where both time and physical space are under relentless pressure. Common public time for leisure and religious practice has been greatly reduced, notably through the dismantling of the traditional British Sunday. On the other hand, private time to experience the sacred is becoming increasingly significant as an important human right, for example a right to time off work or school for religious observance. As common sacred time has shrunk, demands for sacred space have become more complex.
There is a need for places where people may find quiet and spiritual refreshment at any time. Sites are sought for new and different places for worship and religious activity. Plans are made to expand and adapt old religious buildings. These proposals may be difficult to reconcile with planning law and with other modern public law systems.
This interdisciplinary day conference was concerned with the relevance of the law in these areas, for providing opportunities which may enable people to find and experience a spiritual dimension to life. Sessions sought to examine relevant legal rules and principles in their practical application and to apply some theological insights.

The bestselling author of Stones From the River delivers her most ambitious and dramatic novel yet the unforgettable story of an endearing, but flawed, Italian American family. In December 1953 Anthony Amedeo's world is nested in his Bronx neighborhood, his parent's Studebaker, the Paradise Theater, Yankee Stadium and in his imaginatin, where he longs for a stencil kit to decorate the windows like all the other kids on his street. Instead, he gets a very different present: his uncle Malcolm's family. Malcolm is in jail for stealing once again from his latest new job, and Anthony's aunt and twin cousins settle into the Amedeos' fifth floor walk-up. Sharing a room with girls is excruciating for Anthony, despite his affinity for the twins. But the real change in Anthony's life comes one evening when he causes the unthinkable to happen, changing each family member's life forever.

45. Journey
Journey A Cycle of sacred time. This is a journey or pilgrimage. It is a movement toward wholeness or holiness, a cycle of time for entering the sacred.
http://www.home.earthlink.net/~newmoons/journey.htm
Journey
A Cycle of Sacred Time By Jan Boddie, PhD and Marystella Church, CHT In the English language we sometimes interchange the words journey, trip and travel. There is, however, a quantum difference between taking a trip and being on a journey. We've all done some traveling, perhaps at times alone and at other times with a friend. Be it a commute to work, a weekend getaway, or a vacation in Hawaii, it's an American tradition to take trips. Even to go abroad and play at being a tourist is a familiar way to travel for many Americans. Yet being on a journey is quite different from traveling or being on a trip. It's as different as taking a picture of the ocean is from jumping in and experiencing it. For starters, traveling can be exhausting because there is so much to figure out: where to stay; how much to pay for a meal; how to find the cathedral you came to visit; fussing about the clothes you did or did not bring.
Journeying probes deeper than these thoughts that consume us. Being on a journey is going beyond what is

46. Sacred Time, Sacred Space
sacred time, Sacred Space. When Life. The union of sacred time and Sacred Space is not far away or vast. It is in the giggle of a child.
http://www.sacredcircles.com/THEDANCE/HTML/DANCEPAG/AAGLOSS/SACRTIME.HTM
Sacred Time, Sacred Space
When I use the term ìthe union of Sacred Time and Sacred Spaceî I am, in a sense, referring to that dimension from which the time-space continuum arise. There is a connotation in the manner in which I use the phrase, however, which permeates the phrase with the presence of Life. The union of Sacred Time and Sacred Space is not far away or vast. It is in the giggle of a child. ìBe ye like children,î the master said, ìif you would enter the kingdom of Heaven. Another way to cast some connotative light upon the phrase would be to consider the first two words of the Christian prayer, the Our Father. The first two words are ìAwoon Dwashmayaî. These are commonly translated as ìOur Father who art in Heavenî. ëAwooní, however, in the old Aramaic (the street language in the Palestine at the time of Jesus) means more something like ëdaddyí or ëo sweet papaí. ëDwashmayaí is quite interesting. The Maya part is related to the modern words for ëmotherí, ëmaterialí, and the Hindu ëMayaí . The ëdwashí part of the word is related to our modern word for ëawashí. Put it together and the phrase may perhaps more appropriately be spoken, ìO dear daddy, papa, you who permeate the Mother, the material universe, every fiber of all we see and are ...î

Sacred Circle Dance
The Roots of The Dance
What has become known as Sacred Circle Dance
(a collection of traditional and not so traditional dances)
is a grass roots phenomenon which is spreading rather rapidly.
It has becoem especially interesting for facilitators of dance therapy,
of womens circles, of mens circles
and for people
who enjoy cultivating the energy of community and of the earth relationships.
There is no certification to become a facilitator of Sacred Circle Dance.
(Though there is permission needed to facilitate the LongDance,
which requires special skills of the facilitator) Each facilitator has their own flavor and approach. Some teachers lead circles emphasizing the joy and play of the Dance. Others use the dance in men's' or women's' circles to enhance the experience beyond the merely mental. Still others will stir the Dance as a way of gelling the sense of community. Many have asked of the HISTORY of Sacred Circle Dance. There is no simple answer. While some trace the quickly spreading phenomena to the seeds of Bernard Wosien, a modern and ballet dancer in europe in the middle of this century

Artist Lynne Feldman
Lynne Feldman, whose works appear with this article, was already 20 years into her career as a painter when she began to explore Judaic themes in her work.
What began as an expression of emotion in response to her grandparents’ deaths has become a passion to convey the warmth and deep sense of connection she experiences in Judaism. One of Feldman’s specialties is creating portraits of families such as those seen here. Each portrait is the result of collaboration between the artist and the family. For further information about Feldman’s work, contact Artistic Judaica Promotions at 877-443-8836.

3.9 The Sacred Times of Religion: English and Turkish Burials
Dora Panayotova [Dora.Panayotova@ruhr-uni-bochum.de]
Islam had deep roots in the Ottoman Empire. The Koran provided a common worldview for everyday life, on the basis of which the natives interpreted both their personal and social experience. Religion also had the pragmatic role of constructing the daily work cycle of Tuna Vilayet. The inhabitants scheduled their day by the cry of the ' immaun' from the mosque. The prayer call served to determine what time it was, thus making time acquire a religious rather than a secular meaning. Christianity and Islam vary in what they teach about the importance or insignificance of time and the substance of temporality and eternity. These are concepts inseparably bound up with the ideas of life and death and the ceremonies accompanying giving birth and dying. The Ottoman traditions concerning the latter obviously impressed Barkley very much for he gives detailed information about Turkish funerals. His interest in graveyards is maybe due to his 'climate of opinion': Victorian England seemed to be preoccupied with funerals, cemeteries and corpses. Another reason was surely the irritating fact that burial grounds were all around the settlements. This either brought delays in the working plan when the line had to avoid them, or cost Barkley time and nerves to get a permission to build the railway straight through. Hullo! What' s up now? Something out of the common, for here come a lot of Turks

http://www.geocities.com/~huathe/festivals.html
Celtic Festivals The Celtic year was divided into two halves, the dark and the light. Samhain was the beginning of the dark half, with its counterpart, Beltane beginning the light half. Between these two 'doors' or portals fell Imbolc, on February 1, and Lughnasadh or Lammas, celebrated on August 1, quartering the Celtic year. These quarters were again divided by the solstices and equinoxes, which were known as the four Albans. The Albans
Alban Arthuan
The winter solstice, observed on December 21, was the shortest day of the year. The name 'Arthuan' is interesting in relation to Arthurian legend, as King Arthur was believed to have been born on the Winter Solstice in Castle Tintagel in Cornwall. Alban Arthuan ("The Light of Arthur"), also was referred to as Yule, Mabon, Jul, Saturnalia, or Christmas. This feast took place on December 21 and marked the longest, darkest night of the year. Alban Arthuan was a festival of peace and a celebration of waxing solar light. Many honored the forthcoming Sun child by burning an oaken Yule log, and honored the Goddess in her many Mother aspects. The Father God was also honored in various forms: as Santa Claus, the Old Sky God, Father Time, and the Holly King.
Alban Eiler
The first day of spring, or the spring (Vernal) equinox was celebrated March 21. Alban Eiler, which means, "Light of the Earth," was the day that night and day stood equal. Crops were typically sown at this time. The equinoxes and solstices were seen, to the Celts, as a time of transition. This rare balance in nature made these days a powerful time for magic to the ancient Druids.

Eparchy of Saint Maron of Brooklyn The Sacraments The Mysteries
A Commentary on the Holy Mysteries
By Chorbishop Seely Beggiani
The Eastern churches use the term mysteries to describe the sacred rites by which the Church perpetuates the saving action of Christ on earth. The Western church uses the term sacrament. Each term has a history and is filled with meaning. In the Eastern churches, mystery generally refers to the realm of the holy and to God's plan of salvation. The Syriac/Maronite world, observed by the senses, was only the surface of the real. With the eyes of faith we are able to appreciate the real presence of God in creation.
The Syriac world believed that creation, revelation, incarnation and salvation were all part of one process. God created the universe in His "image and likeness". Therefore, all of creation is holy since God is somehow immanent in creation itself. The presence of God is there in creation to be experienced by those who seek Him, and God is to be seen in contemplating any of His creatures. The Book of Genesis declares that the Holy Spirit hovered over the waters at creation; and so the Spirit of God breathes through all of reality.
Syriac writers also taught that the incarnate Christ was intended from the beginning of creation; that indeed the universe was created in the image of Christ; and that the world and human history had to mature over a period of many eras before Christ could be manifested in the "fullness of time". Saint Ephrem and the other Syriac writers observe that nature itself and the events and personages of the Old Testament pre-figure and foreshadow Christ. The implication of this teaching is that all of reality is sacred because all of reality has a part in the coming to birth of Christ.

T EMPORALITIES OF S OCIAL I NSTITUTIONS
Social institutions are the broadest organizers of individuals' beliefs, drives, and behaviors. Evolving to address the separate needs of society (e.g., the military institution out of the need for defense; the family out of the social needs for procreation, socialization, and intimacy), social institutions are free-standing social units with their own inner dynamics and rhythms. Like separate musical scores, each has its own melodies, harmonies, and rhythms. The more powerful a given institution is in any given society, the more likely its times influence everyday life. Many researchers (see, for instance, the Foundation For the Study of Cycles ) have detected cyclical patterns of historical change in these chronosystems. At the personal level, these institutions come to control the social rhythms of life in a process called entrainment. As described by Joseph McGrath and Janice Kelley in Time and Human Interaction: Toward a Social Psychology of Time (Guilford Press, 1986):

Sabbath: Restoring the Sacred Rhythm of Rest By: Wayne Muller Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
It's sad that we need a book to remind us of the importance of scheduling time to rest and worship. But because we can work, shop, achieve, and otherwise stay busy every hour of every day of the week, we do. The statement, "I am so busy" has become a frighteningly common lament, according to author Wayne Muller. Our perpetual state of busyness represents a war on our natural rhythms that demand quiet and renewal in order to be emotionally, spiritually, and creatively fertile.
Honoring the Sabbath need not be a commitment to a specific day of the week, explains Muller. In fact, it can be a yearlong retreat or a morning walk"anything that preserves a visceral experience of life-giving nourishment and rest."
Far more than an interesting concept, this is a good read. Each chapter is provocative and fluid, with topics such as "Fear of Rest," "Dormancy," and "The Way of Enough." At the end of his chapters, Muller offers stories, poems, or practices that speak to the themes of the Sabbath. Gail Hudson
Book Description
It has become our standard greeting: "I'm so busy." Now, in a book that can heal our harried lives, the author of the spiritual classic How, Then, Shall We Live? shows us how to create a special time of rest, delight, and renewala refuge for our souls.
