“A genuinely good heart is a heart that is open and alight with understanding. It listens to the sorrows of the world. Our society is wrong to think that happiness depends on fulfilling one's own wants and desires. That is why our society is so miserable...” (Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo, Into the Heart of Life, Snow Lion: 2011, Chapter 9 ‘Practicing the good heart’)

Tuesday in Easter Week
O God, who by the glorious resurrection of your Son Jesus Christ destroyed death and brought life and immortality to light: Grant that we, who have been raised with him, may abide in his presence and rejoice in the hope of eternal glory; through Jesus Christ our Lord, to whom, with you and the Holy Spirit, be dominion and praise for ever and ever. Amen.

That's truly a doubly beautiful picture of the Resurrection—but it reminds me of an issue that has bothered me for years: I think I know of only one picture of the Resurrection in which the Christ is naked.
If the BODY of Jesus was raised, that that involve his CLOTHING, too? But he didn't have any clothing on in the tomb! Dp we need a new theology of celestial fabric or something. If not, where did he get the clothes to wear on the road to Emmaus?
