In, but not of, this world
'The psychological trials of dwellers in the last times will be equal to the physical trials of the martyrs.
In order to face these trials we must be living in a different world'.

Carthusian Rosary
Carthusian Rosary
Q: Is there a Carthusian Rosary?
A: Even if some deny the existence of a Carthusian Rosary, the Carthusians themselves are in no doubt about its existence and importance. They would concede that it is different from the ordinary, the Dominican Rosary. They would even go so far as to say that it is, the Carthusian Rosary, at the root of the Dominican Rosary.
The Carthusian Rosary, even now--more that five centuries after Dominic of Prussia (1382-1461) and Adolf of Essen, his mentor and friend--is an invitation to meditation. It aims to lead towards contemplation of the mysteries of Christ's life. It does not have mysteries which are different according to the days of the week. Although at one time built around 150 Hail Marys, the stages of Christ's life are seen to center on a series of fifty Hail Marys. Each one of the Hail Marys--the first part only, ending in 'benedictus fructus ventris tui, Jesus' is followed by a theme of Christ's life. The first of these themes, for example, highlights the Anunciation: "Jesus, conceived of the Holy Spirit during the Anunciation of the Angel." The series of fifty Hail Marys is concluded with Jesus' glorious return to the Father: "Jesus, who reigns together with the Father and the Holy Spirit, and with your most holy Mother, triumphant and glorious for ever." The number of Hail Marys are not important. What counts is the quality of one's meditation, of authentic contemplative prayer. The Carthusian Rosary wants to be essentially action of grace and it is thus suggested that each theme be followed by an Alleluia (Adolph of Essen). The Our Father which could be preceded by the Glory be is/are "finally inserted in the series of fifty Hail Mary prayers to give the full prayer a Trinitarian and doxological conclusion." The Carthusian Rosary is a prayer of great flexibility. There is no obligation to say all fifty Hail Marys, but nothing prevents the prayerful person to add the second half of the Hail Mary. Dominic of Prussia recommends to conclude the Rosary with the following prayer.
"Oh Immaculate, ever blessed and glorious Virgin Mary, Mother of God; oh Temple of God, the most beautiful of all temples; oh Doorway of the Kingdom of Heaven through which the whole world has been saved, do hear me mercifully, and become by sweet protectress, for me a poor and wretched sinner. Be my help in all my needs. Amen."
Here are the fifty themes to be added/recited after each Hail Mary:
1. Jesus, conceived of the Holy Spirit during the Annunciation of the Angel.
2. Jesus, who together with you who has conceived him, visits Saint Elizabeth.
3. Jesus, to whom you, virgin in body and soul, have given birth with joy.

Our Father, who art

daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we
forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us

Hail Mary,
Full of Grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit
of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary,
Mother of God,
pray for us sinners now,
and at the hour of our death.
Glory Be
Glory be to the
Father,
and to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now,
and ever shall be,
world without end.
Apostles’ Creed
I believe in God,
the Father Almighty, Creator of Heaven and earth;
and in Jesus Christ, His only Son Our Lord,
Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under
Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried.
He descended into Hell; the third day He rose again from the dead;
He ascended into Heaven, and sitteth at the right hand of God, the Father
almighty; from thence He shall come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Catholic
Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of
the body and life everlasting.
