நற்கருனையும் நாமும் Holy Communion in the Hand

நற்கருனையும் நாமும்.

நீங்கள் நற்கருணையை கையில் வாங்கி உண்பவரா?

அப்படிஎனில் இதை நீங்கள் அவசியம் படிக்க வேண்டும்.'

Communion in the hand has not been, and will not be accepted by Heaven. This is a sacrilege in the eyes of the Eternal Father, and must not be continued, for you only add to your punishment when you continue on in the ways that have been found to be unpleasing to the Eternal Father.' - Our Lady of the Roses, June 30, 1984
(the following is an article reprinted from the Children of the Eucharist):

What the holy ones say about receiving Jesus... '

There is an apostolic letter on the existence of a special valid permission for this [Communion in the hand].
But I tell you that I am not in favor of this practice, nor do I recommend it.' -
His Holiness Pope John Paul II,
responding to a reporter from Stimme des glaubens magazine, during his visit to Fulda ( Germany ) in November 1980.

Holy Communion received on the tongue 'signifies the reverence of the faithful for the Eucharist ... provides that Holy Communion will be distributed with due reverence ... is more conducive to faith, reverence and humility.... It [Communion in the hand] carries certain dangers with it which may arise from the new manner of administering holy Communion: the danger of a loss of reverence for the August sacrament of the altar, of profanation, of adulterating the true doctrine.' - Pope Paul VI in his instruction Memoriale Domini (May 29, 1969)

அன்னை தெரேசா:

நான் உலகில் எங்கு சென்றாலும், என்னை பெரிதும் கவலை அடைய செய்வது, மக்கள் நற்கருணையை கையில் பெற்றுக் கொள்வதை பார்ப்பதுதான்.

'Wherever I go in the whole world, the thing that makes me the saddest is watching people receive Communion in the hand.'- As reported by Fr. George Rutler in his 1989 Good Friday sermon at St. Agnes Church, New York. When Mother Teresa of Calcutta was asked by Fr. Rutler, 'What do you think is the worst problem in the world today?' without pausing a second she gave the above reply.

She stated that to her knowledge, all of her sisters receive Communion only on the tongue. 'Behind Communion in the hand—I wish to repeat and make as plain as I can—is a weakening, a conscious, deliberate weakening of faith in the Real Presence.... Whatever you can do to stop Communion in the hand will be blessed by God.'- Fr. Hardon, S.J., November 1st, 1997 Call to Holiness Conference in Detroit , Michigan , panel discussion. 'There can be no doubt that Communion in the hand is an expression of the trend towards desacralization in the Church in general and irreverence in approaching the Eucharist in particular.... Why—for God's sake—should Communion in the hand be introduced into our churches when it is evidently detrimental from a pastoral viewpoint, when it certainly does not increase our reverence, and when it exposes the Eucharist to the most terrible diabolical abuses? There are really no serious arguments for Communion in the hand. But there are the most gravely serious kinds of arguments against it.' - Dietrich von Hildebrand (called a '20th century doctor of the Church' by Pope Pius XII), in an article entitled 'Communion in the Hand should be Rejected,' November 8, 1973. 'With Communion in the hand, a miracle would be required during each distribution of Communion to avoid some Particles from falling to the ground or remaining in the hand of the faithful.... Let us speak clearly:

whoever receives Communion in the mouth not only follows exactly the tradition handed down but also the wish expressed by the last Popes and thus avoids placing himself in the occasion of committing a sin by negligently dropping a fragment of the Body of Christ.'- Bishop Juan Rodolfo Laise of San Luis , Argentina in his book Communion in the Hand: Documents and History.
