- Publication6- “La lettre de Denys l’Aréopagite à Timothée comme texte liturgique, ”(Pontificia Universidad Cataolica del Perao, Fondo Editorial, 2018) Youssef, Youhanna; Youssef, YouhannaRésumé : Parfois il est difficile de suivre l’évolution de la liturgie copte, car il y en a plu sieurs traditions locales. Nous avons choisi un texte très peu connu de nos jours. Il s’agit d’une lettre de Denys l’Aéropagite, selon un manuscrit de la collection de l’église de Samannûd, qui se lit lors de la fête des Apôtres le 5 Abîb, 29 juin julien. Nous commençons par une introduc tion sur Denys l’Aréopagite, puis nous noterons que les manuscrits qui contiennent ce texte sont catalogués comme des manuscrits bibliques ou théologiques et rarement dans la caté gorie « liturgiques ». Nous expliquerons ensuite quand et où ce texte est entré dans la liturgie copte, à savoir via le rite melkite de Syrie puis d’Égypte, notamment au Caire où il passera à l’église voisine de Harat Zuwaila, pour être enfin diffusé dans les autres régions de l’Égypte, ce qui est reflété par le manuscrit de Samannnûd

- Publication‘A SPIRITUALITY OF PLEASURE, ‘Deciphering Vijñānabhairava verse 68’.(Asiatica Association, 2013-09-19) Dupuche, JohnThis heavily coded śloka from the tantric literature of Kashmir Shaivism has been misinterpreted and misused, to the detriment of the reputation of tantra in the West. This paper studies the original text and ancient commentaries, and elucidates the several levels of meaning of this arcane verse. It also looks at the various translations and commentaries in English, French, German, which do not bring out the full meaning of the text or contradict each other or gloss over problems or bend the verse to suit their agendas. As a result, this paper concludes that, far from being disreputable or trivial, the sloka describes a spirituality of pleasure in every-day life which is profound and important for our age.
- PublicationA Time to Celebrate Achievements … and to Tackle the Next Big Challenge – Dialogue(Sri Ramanuja Mission Trust, 2013-10-12) Fry, Ian; Fry, IanThis paper is written in the context of a celebration of the achievements of Sri Ramanuja Mission Trust and its founder, Swamy Chaturvedi. It discusses the challenge for governments that have responsibility for education, training and community services at all levels in a nation in which one in every five people is a child under ten, another one in four are under 20, only one in three people are in the prime working period of 20 to 45 years of age, and only one in five are in the senior management pool of 45 to 65 which provides most political leaders. It notes that they come under pressure from commercial interests, especially those in the non-essential consumer goods sector, tourism and hospitality, and arms and defence procurement industries. It then refers to the added strains caused by the inversion of relationships between the White Western Christian Bloc and the World Majority Peoples, and the need for development of greater community cohesion through programs of dialogue between each of its faiths.

- PublicationAbhishiktananda Centenary Symposium – a report(Australian Catholic University, 2011-12) Dupuche, JohnAbhishiktananda (Henri Le Saux osb) (19101973) is one of the pioneers in interreligious dialogue. Together with his mentor, Fr. Jules Monchanin, he founded an ashram at Shantivanam in Tamil Nadu. After some years he went to live the life of a hermit in the Himalayas. His lifestyle, books and diaries are now the subject of considerable interest. In recognition of his outstanding contribution, symposia were held around the world in the centenary year of his birth. The first, at Saccidananda Ashram (Shantivanam) in Tamil Nadu, was particularly valuable as it provided information which is not otherwise accessible about the circumstances of Abhishiktananda life and the present situation of interreligious dialogue in India.
- PublicationAboriginal Religious Traditions and the Sacramental Life of the Church(2006) Wilcken, JohnThe speech by Pope John Paul II in Alice Springs in the year 1986 clearly states Aboriginal Christians should express their Christian faith in accordance with their own cultural and religious traditions and it is not important as to what language they use but the important thing is the sacramental manifestation of religious faith.
- PublicationAbsolute Nothingness or Dynamic Emptiness: God and the 'Cult of Nothingness' in Buddhist-Christian Dialogue(Editions Rodopi, 2012) May, John; Hintersteiner, Norbert; Bousquet, FrancoisEuropeans had to overcome prejudices about Buddhism being 'nihilistic'. The concept of 'absolute nothingness' is a plausible way of speaking about God in the tradition of' negative theology'. Understood as the equivalent of divine love or 'self-emptying', it is also a paradigm for ethics.

- PublicationAn African worldview : the Muslim Amacinga Yawo of Southern Malawi(Kachere Series, 2012) Dicks, IanIn this book Ian Dicks informs the reader about the ways in which the Yawo of Malawi view the world. The Yawo are predominantly Muslim, yet many maintain strong links with their traditional religion. They are a largely oral society, teaching and reinforcing their beliefs and practices using oral literature, which includes myths, proverbs, proverbial stories, songs of advice and prayers at various stages of the life cycle, particularly during initiation events. Ian Dicks describes in detail the Yawo's material world, customs, beliefs and rituals, and juxtaposes these with Yawo oral literature. He then examines them under six worldview categories, the result being a rich description of the way in which the Yawo see the world. This book is not an armchair study but has the feel of being written by an eyewitness, by someone who has had first-hand experience of the subject and who seeks to describe this in a manner which is sensitive to the Yawo and their culture
