Tharoor is a former UN under-secretary general and writes an article about the recent bombing in India entiltled "Bombs and bullets cannot
destroy India - as long as its gates remain open". This atrocity was not
homegrown.. But if it leads to demonisation of the nation's Muslims, the
terrorists will have won.

It seems to me that there
is no better place to begin an account of a Tertianship programme than to quote
from Mary Wright’s introduction to the Handbook on this stage of formation in
the Institute:
“Tertianship is a ‘school
of the heart’ which comes to our members at that time in their lives when
perhaps it is most needed, when ministry challenges and demands can overwhelm
the spirit and when the clear sight of ‘the one thing necessary’ might be
obscured by the clutter and baggage which we have collected over the
years. The time of Tertianhsip is a
precious gift, a time of deepening insight into our own lives and the life of
the Institute. It brings healing and
reconciliation and strengthens bonds with the world wide Institute.”

 Join the World and Celebrate Earth Hour. At 8 p.m. on March 29, the world will turn off its
lights for just one hour – Earth Hour – to show it’s possible to take action on climate change. Switching off your
lights is just one simple action that you can take to help make a difference and it sends a powerful message that
we care about our planet. Last year, WWF-Australia pioneered Earth Hour and it
was a huge success! Almost 2.3 million Sydneysiders participated – including more than 2,100 businesses –
resulting in a 10 per cent reduction on the electrical grid, saving 25,000 tonnes of carbon
dioxide - the equivalent of taking about 50,000 cars off the road for an hour.
