Short Reflection for the 6th Sunday in the Ordinary Time (B)
Readings: Leviticus 13: 1-2. 44-46; 1 Corinthians 10:31- 11:1; Mark 1: 40-45
Gospel Passage: “Moved with pity, Jesus stretched out his hand, touched the leper, and said to him, ‘I do will it. Be made clean’." (Mk.1: 41)
Reflection: We, too, need to feel Jesus’ “touch” and hear his voice “I do will it…” In one sense, all of us are suffering from the leprosy of sin. But that disease is not our truest self, our deepest nature. Our true nature is inherently beautiful, made in the divine image and likeness. This is what Jesus restores by his healing words and touch. www.badaliyya.blogspot.com
DHIKR SIMPLE METHOD...
Dhikr is an Arabic word for remembrance. In the “tariqa” (the way) movement, dhikr developed into a form of prayer… It is a prayer of the heart… following three simple steps:
1. Write in one’s heart a certain passage of the Holy Writ…
2. Make the same passage ever present in one’s lips.
3. Then wait for God’s disclosure on the meaning of the passage…that interprets one’s life NOW…!
It takes a week of remembering (dhikr)…or even more days to relish the beauty of this method…
