He began to develop a literary cosmogonic system in the tradition of Lucretius, William Blake, and Edgar Allan Poe and exposed it for the first time in the essay Épitre à Storge, published in La Revue de Hollande in 1917. In the early 1920s, Milosz convinced himself that his poetic cosmogony was supported by Einstein's theory of relativity, still a subject of debate. During this period, after a flirtation with "occult" reading and friends, like the numerologist René Schwaller de Lubicz, Milosz turned his back on these currents of thought and began to study medieval science and thinkers like the English scholastic Robert Grosseteste. Finally, in 1927 he took a Father Confessor and became a practicing Roman Catholic, which he remained for the last twelve years of his life.
On 26 September 2018 it was announced that another monk's death was under investigation namely that of brother Zeinoun al-Maqari (also rendered Zaynoun El-Makary, Zenon al-Maqary, Zenon al-Maqari and Zenon al-Makary). The brother had recently been transferred to the Al-Muharraq (also rendered El-Muharraq ) monastery from Saint Macarius monastery since August 2018 and had been one of five others to have similarly been transferred since the murder of the abbot. He had been discovered by other monks when they had come to his cell to fetch him for Vespers and he appears to have been in his early 40s. It was revealed by a source within the monastery, who was not officially authorised to speak with the press, that the newly-deceased monk was in fact a father-confessor to one of the two brothers standing trial (see below).
Marie Erdődy became one of the great supporters of Beethoven from the early years of the 19th century. She was often in his company and they became friends and confidants, Beethoven referring to Marie as his "father confessor". Their association can be dated from as early as 1802, the year of the Heiligenstadt Testament, during which difficult time Beethoven made frequent visits to Jedlesee—one mile from Heiligenstadt and five miles north of Vienna—where Marie had inherited the small country estate which today houses the Vienna- Floridsdorf Beethoven Memorial. Thayer writes, "It is not at all improbable that the vicinity of the Erdödy estate at Jedlesee am Marchfeld was one reason for his frequent choice of summer lodgings in the villages on the Danube, north of the city". In October 1808, Beethoven left the Pasqualati House, where he had lived for four years, and moved one block down into the Countess's large apartment on the Krugerstraße, No. 1074, residing there with Marie until March 1809.
In the Catholic Church, it is also traditional for the laity to kiss the hands of a newly-ordained priest after his inaugural mass, in veneration of the Body of Christ, which is held in the priest's hands during the Holy Eucharist. In the Eastern Orthodox Church, and Oriental Orthodox Churches, it is appropriate and common for laity to greet clergy, whether priests or bishops, by making a profound bow and saying, "Father, bless" (to a priest) or "Master, bless" (to a bishop) while placing their right hand, palm up, in front of their bodies. The priest then blesses them with the sign of the cross and then places his hand in theirs, offering the opportunity to kiss his hand. Orthodox Christians kiss their priest's hands not only to honor their spiritual father confessor, but in veneration of the Body of Christ which the priest handles during the Divine Liturgy as he prepares Holy Communion.
She had been brought up a Roman Catholic, and, her guardian and uncle George Gordon, 2nd Marquis of Huntly, being a Protestant, her mother on her deathbed commended her to the care of her father confessor, Gilbert Blackhall. He went to Paris in the hope of obtaining instructions from Henrietta's grandmother, the Dowager Marquise of Huntly (also Henrietta, née Stewart of Lennox). The marquise, however, pleading poverty, took no step to have the child brought to Paris, as Blackhall thought she should be; and so he applied to Anne of Austria, and obtained from her a letter, under the joint sign-manual of herself and the king, praying the Marquis of Huntly, who had assumed the guardianship of Henrietta (with the intention of having her educated in the Protestant faith), to permit Blackhall to escort her to France. Blackhall therefore went to Scotland, and, after delays, obtained the charge of Henrietta, and took ship with her from Aberdeen on 26 July 1643.
As Sassoon wrote in a letter to Robert Graves (24 July 1918): Rivers did not wish to "break" his patients, but at the same time he knew that it was their duty to return to the front and his duty to send them. There is also an implication (given the pun on Rivers's name along with other factors) that Rivers was more to Sassoon than just a friend. Sassoon called him "father confessor", a point that Jean Moorcroft Wilson picks up on in her biography of Sassoon; however, Rivers's tight morals would have probably prevented a closer relationship from progressing: Not only Sassoon, but his patients as a whole, loved him and his colleague Frederic Bartlett wrote of him Sassoon described Rivers's bedside manner in his letter to Graves, written as he lay in hospital after being shot (a head wound that he had hoped would kill him – he was bitterly disappointed when it did not): Rivers was well known for his compassionate, effective and pioneering treatments; as Sassoon's testimony reveals, he treated his patients very much as individuals.
In her book, Mother Ravasio wrote that she personally saw God the Father and that God the Father sat next to her. On 1 July 1932, in Book 1, part 1, she quoted God the Father and wrote: > ... "Look, I put aside my crown and all my glory to take the attitude of the > common person"... After having taken the attitude of a common person, > placing his crown and glory at his feet, he took the globe of the world to > his heart. Supporting it with his left hand, then he sat down next to me... Mother Ravasio also wrote messages from God the Father to Bishop Alexandre Caillot, who later approved of the book. In Book 1, part 3 she wrote: > "I also want to say a word to you, My son Alexander, so that My desires may > be realized in the world. You must join with the father confessor of this > “little plant” (Mother Eugenia) of My Son Jesus, in promoting this work" Mother Ravasio also wrote of acts by the Devil.
