WHAT IS DONE AND WHAT IS MEANT BY THE CONSECRATION OF THE HOLY CHRISM

T he most prominent, but also the "darkest': philosopher of the 20th century Martin Heidegger, like Heraclitus, chracterised "Seinsvergessenheit';

namely "forgetfulness of being'as the greatest wrong of people - especially of our age - with the greatest consequences.

It is this ethico·philosophical aphorism of the German philosopher that [ often bring to mind, when [ see how little the broader Greek public knows today from the most sacred symbolisms of its traditions. We make no distinction here whether we speak of pre·christian or Byzantine Orthodox traditions, which consecrated the former. Whatever these traditions be, they have unlimited dimensions in the space of the "myth': Now "myth" is equally a way of the Greeks, just as t~eason" is, so as not to allow here the dimension ascertained here by the Western European between Asia and Europe, resulting in the separation and sometimes in the complete antithesis of these two fundamental functions of the conscience. In any case, if ureason'is primarily the power that "collects" and 'preserves" and rthoJds together" what was before divided, safeguarding their unity, duration and viability, "myth" is not simply the vain creation of imagination that has no substance. For Greeks "myth" is "reason" purified from the temporal element and elevated to the absolute power of eternal truth, precisely that it may be "conso/ation'; regardness of place and time. Furthermore, does it not appear even etymologically how deeply united "reason "remains (as the second part of the word) with "myth'; in the Greek words with its first part meaning precisely what is beyond the original datum? For this reason we could officially call the Panagia "Conso/ation ': It is for the same reason, too, that the late Patriarch Athenagoras, admiring the poetry of our traditions and customs, said that we Greeks are "peop/e of the myth':

All the above thoughts spontaneously came to my mind recently, as a result of the ceremony of the Consecration of the Holy Chrism, which was conducted this year at Phanar, being one of the historic events which the new Leader of the Ecumenical Throne Bartholomeos [ began his blessed Patriarchy.

Preparation and Consecration of the Holy Chrism" by the learned hierarch of the patriarchate Metropolitan Paul of Sweden - who also wrote his doctoral dissertation on the theme of Holy Chrism - I found myself again involved in the saving ramifications which constitute the symbolisms of "1 "what is done" and Uwhat is chanted" in our worship. As we shall see further below, these "symbolisms" are not only purifying, but literally saving, provided we keep them active 1 and functioning both in our conscience and in the entire body of the faithful.

Of course it must be admitted that on hearing hurriedly 1 and superficially how the Holy Chrism is prepared and boiled in special boilers at Phanar, initially one has the impression that here perhaps we have a "shell'; namely a more or less formalist tradition that is surely deriving from the Hebrews, just as most forms and objects of christian worship do. Yet in reality, the Holy Chrism is not the best example to see the relationship between Christianity and Judaism. Perhaps 1 we should even say precisely the opposite, namely that the Holy Chrism shows in the most celebrated way where and how Christianity transcends and transforms Judaism.

But to render obvious the the basic elements that would justify this allegation, we should remember what is the historical basis and the prototype of the Holy Chrism. One of the greatest, if not the leading, Byzantine liturgiologist, Archbishop Symeon of ThessaJonika, says that the Myron "is called alabaster as a type of that which was shed on the head of Jesus by the harlot or Mary the sister of Lazarus'W G. 155: 24 ff) .

From this passage it appears obvious that only the repenting soul can offer the "myron" to the Lord of compassion and of glory. The myron becomes almost synonymous with the most stirring repentance, that does

not know what way to find not only to "expiate'; but to "glorify" God. Of course the difference here is abyssmal.

While Judaism seeks with the "works of the Jaw'; which sometimes are mere fonnalism, to expiate man before God - and precisely for this reason the religious acts of the Hebrew are considered to be purifying acts - Christianity aims only at glorifying God with ' repentance, which is the pure spirit and may present no impressive work. For this reason Christianity turns to gestures rather than actions. Now gestures radically differ from actions. For the fonner hint

Patriarch 8artholomeos pours aromatic oils to prepare the Holy Chrism.

at the starting point and the direction of a disposition that is never exhausted in the concrete action, while the latter express the finished and weighed act, for which one can boast. It is precisely at this crucial point that the difference between Christianity and Judaism is to be found. It is a difference that is best incarnated by the order and ceremony of the consecration of the Holy' Chrism, that manifests, as seen above, that the repentance of the harlot - which is not merely "the harlot that is pious," as Sartre would say - constitutes the prototype and basis of our sanctification. This is the great "scandal" of Christianity before the moral or religious pietism and legalism of any other manner of life.

After these fundamental remarks let us now look at some characteristic details from the preparation and consecration of the Holy Chrism, for these details reveal, each in its own manner, not only the mystical but also the secular dimensions served by the mystery of the Holy Chrism from within the complicated ceremonial order of the first four days of Holy Week.

a} First, it should be remarked that the significant materials which comprise the substance of the holy Chrism are not accidental nor is their variety according to one's will. On the contrary it has been decided from early times precisely how many and which materials are to be used fro this purpose. Some sixty perfume oils are in number, while reference is

made to Saint John of Damascus, who refers to equal virtues in nwnber, both spiritual and physical, in one of his special treatises.

While the general teaching of the Church concerning the variety of these materials is that the infinite multitude of the gifts of the Holy Spirit is symbolised by the materials used for the Holy Chrism, here wesee that there is a concrete nwnber of materials of perfume oils. The learned Priest monk Dorotheos Boulismas, who died in 1918 in Constantinople, and whose study on the Holy Chrism is presented by the metropolitan of Sweden, says that the nwnf.er of the said "fragrant materials" are ascribed to the Greek physician and pharmacist Dioskoridis Pedanios, who lived in the first century A.D. and is regarded to be the most prominent writer of antiquity in the field of Pharmacology. In this way, parallel to the gifts of the Holy Spirit offered from above, their correspondence from below is emphasised in a variety of created elements, which stresses the entirety of the worldly being, which must be preserved '~s a sweet fragrance" and to the glory of its Greator.

b) Now if we want to see a certain mystical significance even in the names of another two commentators of the variety, namely of Dioskoridis and of St John of Damascus, we should remember that Dioskouros means son of Zeus, therefore born of God, while John as, as known, the disciple par excellence of love. In this relationship it could be said that from God is revealed the "fragrant" variety and totality of the creation, while with love the same variety is offered in return and is perfected as myron "a sweet spiritual fragrance'; Needless to say that the entire deep relationship of the uncreated with the ccreated bears witness to yet another archetypal and realistic way, namely the well known orthodox teaching concerning the synergy of the divine with the hwnan factor in the matter of salvation.

c) Another characteristic detail is the fact that during the baking of the Holy Chrism old and destroyed icons are used as fuel. This could at first be considered as being for purely practical reasons, so as not to throw them to the rubbish or destroy them without some related function. However, equally and perhaps even more correctly, one could also see here the sacred symbolism that "the old nature of our race" represented by the old icon of man in the icon of God, is given to fire so that the "new creation" may be reborn with Baptism and Chrism.

In any case, this is stressed by SI. Paul when he calls us to "wear the heavenly icon" (I Cor. 15,49).

d) A final characteristic detail here from the whole ceremony and consecration of the Holy Chrism is also the number of boilers in which it is boiled, as well as the nwnber of the vases that contain the Holy Chrism at the liturgy of Holy Thursday. The boilers are seven, a well known nwnber for the entire Judeochristian tradition, while the vases which contain the Holy Chrism are twenty one, an obvious multiple of seven by three, which denotes the infinite multiplication of the already worldly seven considered as "infinite'; through its direct sacramental relationship with the Holy Trinity.

For all the reasons above, it is most characteristic that after the end of the whole ceremony the Archon Myrrh seller cries, before the Patriarch and the multitude, to the

MINISTRY IN THE ORTHODOX CHURCH

i) Orders

T he Orthodox Church is a hierarchical Church. this hierarchy is an attribute which "corresponds to the imitation of God" and reflects the holy order "even

among the celestial beings" (St Dionysius the Areopagite). In the Orthodox Church there are three basic or "major orders'~ bishop, priest and deacon. The "minororders"include sub·deacons and readers.

An essential element in the structure of the Church is the Apostolic Succession of bishops. '1f any are not with the bishop'; wrote Cyprian, "they are not with the Church': During his consecration, the bishop is endowed with the threefold power of Christ: the royal function (ruling), the priestly function (celebrating the sacraments) and the prophetic function (teaching). All ordinations of the ministerial orders take place during the Divine Liturgy. The bishop, however, is ordained prior to the Gospel reading on account of his peculiar "charisma "as teacher of the faith. Nevertheless, in the early Church the celebrant of the Eucharist itself was normally the bishop, and to this day a priest celebrating the Liturgy does so in the name of his local bishop.

Only a bishop has the power to ordain. The bishop, however, must be unmarried; on the contrary, the priest or deacon may marry. Their only limitation is to marry before ordination. There is, here, no undermining of the marital status but only an underlining of the practical difficulties involved in a married clergyman's life. The fundamental function of the priest is to consecrate the gifts of bread and wine, through the invocation of the Holy Spirit, and to transform these into the body and blood of Christ, the only High Priest. This is why the priest is ordained prior to the moment of Consecration in the Divine Liturgy.

The order of deacons is far more prominent in the Orthodox Church than in other communions. The diaconate is not merely a preliminary stage on the way to priesthood, a kind of "half-way house'; but rather a permanent office. The role of the deacon is to minister unto his brethren, to

"The most natural thing in the world is to be a priest"

(Fr Alexander Schmemann)

serve at the feet of Christ within Hi~ Church. He transmits the life of Christ to the world: this is why his ordination occurs just before the communion in the Liturgy.

* * * * * The Church, however, is not only hierarchical in its

ministry: the Holy Spirit is poured out on all the people of God. Every Orthodox faithful is considered king, priest and prophet. The gifts of the Spirit are many (1 Cor. 12:28·30) and cannot be limited to an ordained ministry alone. (d. 1 Thess. 5: 19·20). One recalls the influence in the Christian East of the tradition of the elders (abba, starets), often far greater than that of any hierarch.

This "spiritual" aspect of the Church is particularly emphasised by the Desert Fathers (4th·5th centuries), by St. Symeon the New Theologian (d. 1022) and by such persons as St. Seraphim of Sarov (d. 1833). In the Orthodox tradition, no sharp distinction has ever been drawn between the institutional and the charismatic within the Church. The sacramental authority of the ordained ministry and the spiritual authority of the saints coexist, and any tensions arising cannot justify the suppression of either one. The authority of the Church is not opposed to but identified with that of the Spirit. For the role of the holy people does not undermine the responsibility of the bishops. The Orthodox Church has never attempted to resolve this paradoxical simultaneous existence by reducing the Christian faith either to a few charismatics or by relying on the bishops alone. In preserving this paradox, what is underlined is the nature of the Church as an Eucharistic community in continuity·with the Apostolic faith .

(ii) Structures The Orthodox Church, therefore, understands that the

ministry is not the monopoly of the clergy (d. Eph. 4: 11-12) but the. responsibility of aU. We are, all of us, "the Body of Christ, and each of us is a member of it" (Eph. 5:30). Just as no single function of Christ as king, priest and prophet may be isolated, so also clergy and laity cannot exist without one another. Together do they comprise the Body of Christ, together they live out the mystery of Christ. Their

consecrated material of the Holy Chrism the following moving words:

"You have been crowned, Now you are perfected!"

The same cry is uttered by the multitude present participating in this spiritual banquet of this characteristic Orthodox ceremony of the Holy Chrism.

In conclusion, it should be said that as a permanent lamp burns before the tabernacle on the holy altar, which has the reserved Sacraments, likewise a permanent lamp burns at the Ecumenical Patriarchate where the Holy Chrism is preserved for the needs of the faithful everywhere. For Christ Himself is frequently called the "spiritual Myrrh'; in the language of the worship of the Church.

57

distinction is functional, not essential. In this way, the Orthodox Church avoids two extremes: on the one hand, a clericalism that disdains equality, and on the other hand an anti· hierarchical uniformity that does away with distinctions.

Clergy and laity are joined together in an organic unity: neither is set up over or against the other. "The Church'; says Cyprian, "is the people united to the bishop, the flock clinging to its shepherd': This unity , and diversity in its organisation illuminates the conciliarity' of the Church. The Council always played a central role in the life of the Church from its origin (d. Acts 15 for the "apostolic council'') to this very day when the Orthodox like to refer to the Ecumenical Councils as the highest doctrinal authority. Even the bishop, who is elected by the people, is consecrated by at least two other bishops who represent the "seed" of the council.

This ecclesial character of ministry and ordination is further exemplified in the organisation of the Church which emphasises the fullness of Christ in the local Church while avoiding such religious dangers as nationalism or denominationalism. All Orthodox Churches - Greek, Russian, Antiochian, Romanian, Bulgarian, Serbian etc -believe the very same doctrinal truths and constitute the "one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church': For catholicity transcends practicality, geography, culture and even history, while at the same time expressing itself through these. The Orthodox Church has always been closely identified with the life of the people, to the degree that at times Orthodox forget the universality of their Church. Yet, in its structure the Orthodox Church has - at least up until recently with the creation of national Churches in Europe - preserved its catholicity. Thus, in Australia, the Greek Orthodox Church is under the jurisdiction of the Ecumenical Patriarchate whose representative is the local Archbishop with spiritual responsibility for this country.

The hierarchy, however, is never understood as infallible in the Church. Rather, they are responsible for the teaching of the faith, while the guardian of the faith is the Church in its entirety. Infallibility thus belongs to the whole Church, not just to any bishop or to the episcopate in isolation. The Councils themselves must be received by the conscience of the Church, not so much by way of a formal proclamation as by living. Truth cannot be exteriorised; rather, the tradition of the Church as transmitted by the Holy. Spirit and experienced by the community as a whole is the condition of truth in the Orthodox Church. Truth is not the prerogative of one or more persons but the promise of Christ to the Church.

Vocation comes from above - it is the ordination and order of God. The ministry reveals the complete dependence of the Church, not on certain human individuals, but on ' the love of Christ, on His unique priesthood which is the source of "the priesthood of all believers': The ministry is not a result of human pride in the Church but an expression of humility before God, of obedience to the divine will, of assimilation to the divine hierarchy. And it is to the degree that one is rendered subject to the Church that one is given authority in the Church; to the degree that the bishop, for instance, is son of the Church is the truly father in the Church. This is why, whether they be bishops, priests or lay persons, Orthodox faithful are able to read the work by St John Chrysostom On the Priesthood as directed to themselves.

(iii) Theology Centuries of llclericalism" and the resulting "revolution

of the laity'; in both liturgically conservative and anti· hierarchical churches, have rendered the priest a being apart 5 8

from the people of God, separated from and above the lay persons in our community. For the Orthodox Church, however, the fundamental definition of man is that he is the priest in God's creation: he stands at the centre of the universe, receiving life from God and offering it back to his creator in a liturgy of thanksgiving. Originally - indeed, also etymologically - the word "laity" referred to the "laos'; the people of God which included clergy. Yet priesthood, as understood in the Orthodox tradition, belongs to the very essence of humanity. It is because man has failed to be the priest in the world that there has been an error, a sin, in his relationship with God, his fellow man and the world. Firstly, then, there has been a radical distinction between the sacred and the secular. Yet, all things are potentially and dynamically sacred; the whole world is a burning bush of God's energies and one is able to discern the sacrament of divino· humanity in every detail of the universe. Secondly, man has treated his neighbour in an utilitarian manner, seeing in him something positive only until he is threatened by him. How different this is to the philosophy of the Desert Fathers who claimed: "My neighbour is my God': Finally, the loss of the sacramental vision has led to an abuse of the beauty of the world which is a reality to be loved. One's environment is a gift from God and must be respected as such. Perhaps there is, here, a lesson to be learnt concerning our ecological problems which are a result of failure to accept the world as gift.

It is in the Eucharist that the Son of God becomes both Giver and Receiver of the gifts, transforming them into His body and blood. Salvation is not brought about by acts of virtue but by a participation in the sacrament of life brought from the fragments of bread and wine, and from the fragmented human beings. For the Eastem Church Fathers,

From the ordination of Diamantis Kourabis at our Church in Coburg, Vic. (10.5.92).

the entire universe is a cosmic Liturgy, and it is in this concelebration of all creation that the human person stands as priest, thereby bridging the gulf between Uncreated and created, between Immortality and mortality. In assuming the whole world - food, drink, clothing, technical skill, art -man transfonns matter into the life·giving flesh of the Word of God.

If there are priests in the world, if priests are essential to the Church, it is precisely in order to reveal this priestly vocation to all as the "royal priesthood" (1 Pet. 2:9). Priests, then, are neither a part of nor apart from the world, but the expression of the very heart of the world as created

THE DIVINE LITURGY 12. The World and the Faithful

G od's love is all inclusive and embraces all people. all places and all times. It is for this reason that the next petition urges us to pray for the entire world generally.

and more particularly for the faithful living in the world: "For this city, for every city and land, and for the faithful living in them, let us pray to the Lord':

The Church of Chiist is not only in the heavens; it is also here on earth. Precisely for this reason we pray for our city . in which the Church is established. as well as for every city and land. where there are faithful and where the Divine Liturgy is celebrated. Of course the Church "is not of this world'; but it is established here in the world and hopes to arrive in heaven, in order to consummate its faith and hope in Christ. The Church sanctifies and blesses the world, so that it may proceed from corruption and death to incorruption and life. Such is the

, t of the Church in the world, particularly through the n,y",ery of the Divine Liturgy. Each Divine Liturgy brings us one step closer to and within God's Kingdom. For each time the Divine Liturgy is celebrated. the entire Church is present, heaven and earth become one and the whole Christ is with us.

Out of love. then, for our world in which we live and in earnest desire for the salvation of our world. we pray for our city. as well as for every city and land. The Church prays for the entire world. but offers the Divine Liturgy only for its faithful. and calls only upon its faithful to partiCipate in Holy Communion. For this reason the Church sets apart "the faithful that dwell in the world" and prays particularly for them. so that together with the few faithful God may protect the many others who are unfaithful, and together with the righteous He may keep the unrighteous. Such is God's love for the whole world. In the same way the faithful should extend their love for every land and for every person.

In our times people talk a lot about the integrity of God's creation and the problems of ecology. With the petition in question, the Church unites the peoples of all times and of all lands; it binds together the people with their land. their city and their country; and it reminds them that, while living and working on earth, they are destined for heaven. Life here on earth is but the beginning of life in heaven. Salvation passes through this world. And it is precisely for this reason that people should care for, and love, the world. It is for this reason that we fervently pray: "For this city and for every city and land and for the faithful who live in them ... "

Protopresbyter Miltiades Chryssavgis

and intended by God. The symbol of the priest - and I use the word ''SymboJ''in its literal meaning in Greek, implying ffcontribution"- is to manifest the "world to come" in this world, the old as new, the created order as kingdom of God.

Some are called to be priests and some are not. The sacrament, however, of priesthood, the essence of ministry, concerns everyone because it concerns life itself as vocation. The beginning and end of our life (Rev. 21:6), the Alpha and Omega (Rev. 1:8) of our existence is the mystery of the Body of Christ, His Church. It is there that one may correctly understand one's individual vocation and properly appreciation the fullness of the priesthood of Christ.

Rev. Dr. John Chryssavgis

ATHENS - A reception dedicated to the blessed memory of the Ecumenical Patriarch Demetrius A ; was realized in the Great Reception Hall of the University of Athens. A welcome and introduction were presented by the president Mr Petros Gemtos, the professor of the law faculty Mr Spyr, Troianos and the dean of the Theological College of Athens Mr Elias Economou.

ATHENS - Chaotic and uncontrolled was the way in which His Eminence Metropolitan Drinoupoleos Sebastian regarded the state of Albania today, in his speech to a multitude of students at the amphitheatre of the Law School of Athens.

His Eminence also added that the situation "resembles a volcano which is ready to explode" and that "the Albanians, whether they are communists or whether they are Nationalists, are driven by a Greek hating spirit and everyone's aim is as to how with every sort of oppression and with the strangling of the rights of the Greek minority group, Ihey will force the Northern Epirus citizens to abandon North Epirus and leave for Greece following the example of the Greeks of Constantinople",

CONSTANTINOPLE - The priceless spiritual treasures of the Patriarchate and the school of Halki, will be approachable for the first time to every visitor of the Fanar. The course of Orthodoxy within the two thousand years with all the historical documents, is classified with the' help of computers, clergy, and lay people who work at the Patriarchate.

In the training of the clergy and the laymen of the Patriarchate for the use of the Computers the Advisory Institute of ELKEPA contributed decisively, and whose jurisdiction was thanked publically at a special function at the Fanar by His Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew.

PHILIPPINES - In Manila, the capital of the Philippines, His Eminence, Metropolitan of New Zealand Dionysius, Exarch

r

of the Ecumenical Patriarchate in the Far East, deposited the foundation stone of the church of the Annunciation of Our Lady Mary, which only the 30 Greeks of the Orthodox Community of that area, with sacred zeal and burning faith, l undertook to erect.

The property was donated by the Vice President of the Church Committee and his Philippine Orthodox wife, significant monetary contributions from the members of the community and donations of their co-workers, secured the realization of the sacred desire "to erect an Orthodox Temple" in this country of South"East Asia.

ATHENS - The publishing firm AKRITAS in conjuction with the GOULANDRIS-HORN INSTITUTE and THE ITALIAN EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTE OF ATHENS recently organized a two-day conference with seminars, exhibitions of photographs, Greek and Byzantine sites of Kalabria as well as a display of handcrafts from Kalabria. The purpose of the conference was to strengthen the already growing spiritual and cultural ties between Greece and the Greek constituents of Kalabria (Southern Italy),
