| | Bede Griffiths: Holy Man for Our Time |
 | | It was Bede's hope to have created a center where people of different religious traditions could meet together in an atmosphere of prayer and learn to grow together towards that unity in Truth which is the goal of all religion. | | | Bede had a whole religion based on Wordsworth as prophet. | | | Bede believes that it is no longer possible for religious traditions to exist in isolation. |

| | Bede recognized the tent as emblematic of God's presence in the midst of his chosen people, as the Eucharist is the Lord's presence in the midst of the Christian (monastic) community. | | | From the ninth century Bede was considered one the Fathers of the Church and has the title, Doctor Ecclesiae. | | | Frequently, to the modern mind's consternation, Bede furnishes two or more explanations for an object ("It can mean this, or, if we like, this or this"). |

| | Bede - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The first twenty-one chapters, treating of the period before the mission of Augustine of Canterbury, are compiled from earlier writers such as Orosius, Gildas, Prosper of Aquitaine, the letters of Pope Gregory I, and others, with the insertion of legends and traditions. | | | Rather than copying from any one source, he researched from several sources to create single volume bibles, a practice which was highly unusual for the time: previously, the Bible had circulated as separate books. | | | The fact that Cuthbert’s description places the performance of the Old English poem in the context of a series of quoted passages from Sacred Scripture, indeed, might be taken as evidence simply that Bede also cited analogous vernacular texts (see Opland 1980, 140-141). |

| | Bede surrendered to the Crucified One and had an astounding breakthrough, being swept up into what he called "real prayer." This he referred to as his own "return to the Center." It was soon after this that he entered the Roman Catholic Church and then the monastery. | | | Bede wrote Christ in India and studied the religions and culture of India which he had loved from the start. | | | For Bede Griffiths, the monk was one who has found the true center, and therefore the real call of the monk is to renew and share this awareness of the center. |

| | People have often reasoned that as Bede was a boy in the monastery at the time in question, and later became a priest in the same community, he must have been the boy in the story. | | | Alcuin, writing some fifty years later, ascribed miraculous cures to Bede's relics in his poem "On the Bishops, Kings and Saints of York," [8] and Colgrave and Mynors argue that Bede's feast was celebrated at least by the eleventh century. | | | Bede's absence from the 1559 Book of Common Prayer apparently reflects the fact that the Elizabethan Prayer Book's Calendar was based on the Sarum Use, and medieval Salisbury did not celebrate the feast of Bede. |

| | Bede also based his narrative on papal archives, and relied on the testimony of "countless faithful witnesses who either knew or remember[ed] the facts." (7) Although he included many miracle stories in the History, he used only those which were verified by several sources or by extremely trustworthy sources. | | | For example, in De Templo Salomonis, Bede likened the temple of Solomon to the "holy universal Church", and argued that his use of 30,000 laborers was related to the Trinity. | | | Bede wrote several commentaries on the Bible, the most noteworthy of which was the six volume In Lucae Evangelium Exposito. |

Another account tells how Bede, in his old age, when his eyes were dim, was induced by certain "mockers" to preach, under the mistaken belief that the people were assembled to hear him. | | | It was apparently first applied to him in the ninth century, and is said to have been an appellation of priests. |

| | The Calendar in the Year 1000 |
| | Bede took it for granted that the year should begin with the birth of Christ himself, on December 25. | | | The Gospel description of Christ's birth as occurring in the reign of Herod means that Jesus was probably born in 4 b.c., or even earlier (which also means that the second millennium of his birth should actually have been celebrated in 1996 or 1997, and not in the year 2000). | | | It was an anniversary which, by definition, could only mean something to people who dated their history from the birth of Jesus, and even inside Christendom there were varying interpretations of that. |
