Barroux Ordo - Help
  • I'm trying to make heads or tails of the Ordo from Abbaye du Barroux online, i.e., trying to figure out what the different symbols mean, which numbers correspond to the Mass, the Credo, etc. I thought I knew enough Latin to make heads or tails of it. I WAS WRONG. Help!

    Maybe it's intended to avoid an immantentism that blinds you to the invisibile mysterium.

    Luckily they thought to include a legend in previous ordos. Hope the attached file helps.

  • Liam, you sound like a musical Eric Voegelin.
  • I didn't get to meet any of the monks in September, but one of them is from Oregon, so I am sure that an email to them would be profitable in your situation.

    They sing, unlike too many US choirs heard belting out chant, sensitively.
