You can use a rosary if you have one or just use your fingers to count! The rosary is 50, so a little less than half as many beads as a Mala. I found this a fascinating fact when I learned it.
I'm all for this. I recall as a child once when at church, they handed out small button pins to the congregation. They had "Maranatha" written on them. That was so long ago, but I recall the appearance of the pins vividly. Another one handed out at a different mass/ day was one that said "Kyrie elieson" (Lord have mercy" I believe.). Thanks for sharing this mantra approach.
Very interesting that you emphasised the judging by-connotation.
Some years ago, 2018, when I was praying the Divine Mercy Chaplet, I was told to change the chant:
"For the sake of His sorrowful passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world"
into
"For the sake of HIs powerful passion, have mercy or not on the whole world."
Powerful, because from what I have been shown the word "Sorrowful" is not adequate to describe Yeshua's sacrifice. His sacrifice was mainly spiritual - the physical part being only like a drop in the ocean compared to its spiritual dimension.
He went through hell for the sins of all souls. I was shown that was the price He had to pay for Salvation.
I will use Maran atha plus Marana thà, the accent when pronounced is on the tha.
At around the same time, 2018, I learned that this way it means something like:
"The Lord has come, Lord, come!"
As Yeshua is coming as judge the second time around, the plea that God may interfere and judge where necessary for the benefit of all is implied.
It will be my morning meditation - 50 beads, as 50 is a very special number (jubilee year - Dead Sea Scrolls), and I have a deep connection with the number.
Nice Kabbalah study experience you were able to have!
No, I do not live in Australia. My husband had proposed to me when we were on a vacation there right after he graduated college. We decided to just get married there as the formal religious ceremony we knew would be pressured upon us at home would be left out of the picture. We could avoid the guilt trip too. Also, it would be our little secret alone for a couple weeks. It was "our time". So we did that in Australia- a little town of Manly NSW just across the harbor from Sydney. We always wanted to go back to visit but now know that won't happen :(.
