О Тесли на Берклију

Организација српских студената на Беркли Универзитету у Калифорнији организовала је 9. фебруара вече посвећено Николи Тесли, а поводом 70 година од смрти овог српског и светског научника. То је уједно било и обележавање Дана Светог Саве, а присуствовало је више од 250 људи, јавља за Програм за дијаспору Нина Вајт са Берклија.

Поред мултимедијалне презентације, вођена је и дискусија о овом нашем научнику светског гласа. Специјални гости су били Роберт Утх и Симонида Утх, аутори документарног филма Tesla Master of Lightning, који је приказан те вечери, и др Богдан Лубардић са Теолошког факултета из Београда. Изведен је и културно-уметнички програм посвећен Светом Сави и Тесли.

Намера српских студената на овом престижном Универзитету је да сваке године, приликом обележавања Дана Св. Саве, представе једног Србина, који је задужио српски народ или свет.

Светосавска академија уприличена је и прошле године када је гостима и посетиоцима презентована прича о Светом Сави, његовом световном и духовном животу и значају.

The One and the Many

Studies of God, Man, the Church, and the World today

by Metropolitan John D. Zizioulas

This volume offers a collection of Zizioulas articles which have appeared mostly in English, and which present his trinianatarian doctrine of God, as well as his theological account of the Church as the place in which freedom and communion are actualized. The title, The One and the Many, suggests the idea of a profound relationship that exists between the Persons in the Holy Trinity, between Christ and the Church, between one Catholic Church and many catholic Churches. On each of these levels of communion, each one is called to receive from one another and indeed to receive one another. And while this is understandable at the Triadological and Christological levels, it raises all sorts of fundamental ecclesiological questions, since the highest point of unity in this context is both the mutual ecclesial-eucharistic recognition and agreement on doctrine and canonical-eccelesiological organization.
