Negronne fig tree

Continuing my creative journey experimenting with Rosary and chaplet what-ifs, after posting a couple months ago about using clauses and readings with the Rosary and on Monday a Rosary with a different mystery set for every day of the week, I figured that many Reformed in the Episcopal Church who are uncomfortable with Marian devotions might want a Rosary-like chaplet that doesn't have Marian prayers, so I adapted Monday's post to Jesus-centric prayers: The Jesus Prayer, the Fatima Prayer, or any Jesus prayer you want. This could also be adapted to the traditional Rosary schedule.
Please give notes and advice if you have any! 😁
Introduction

CRUCIFIX — In nomine Patris. - Then: Apostolic Creed.
MEDAL — Pater Noster, with the doxology.

MEDAL — Gloria Patri.

Mysteries

MEDAL — Reading. - Then: Pater Noster, without the doxology.
DECADE — Jesus Prayer or Fatima Prayer, with the clause.
LAST BEAD — Gloria Patri, after the Jesus Prayer or Fatima Prayer.

Conclusion
FINAL MEDAL — The Beatitudes (Matthew 5:1-12): And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him: And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying, Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you. Amen.

From this interview here (at 14:37).
So I've been reading some Jung trying to get a handle my place in Christianity and the idea of faith. I came across this chapter in one of Jung's Works "Collected Works - 18 The Symbolic Life" in the section "XII Psychology and Religion: Why Am I Not A Catholic."
Jung writes:

Firstly: Because I am a practical Christian to whom love and justice to his brother mean more than dogmatic speculations about whose ultimate truth or untruth no human being can ever have certain knowledge. The relation to my brother and the unity of the true “catholic” Christendom is to me infinitely more important than “justification by fide sola.” As a Christian I have to share the burden of my brother’s wrongness, and that is most heavy when I do not know whether in the end he is not more right than I. I hold it to be immoral, in any case entirely unchristian, to put my brother in the wrong (i.e., to call him fool, ass, spiteful, obdurate, etc.) simply because I suppose myself to be in possession of the absolute truth. Every totalitarian claim gradually isolates itself because it excludes so many people as “defectors, lost, fallen, apostate, heretic,” and so forth. The totalitarian maneuvers himself into a corner, no matter how large his original following. I hold all confessionalism to be completely unchristian.
Secondly: Because I am a doctor. If I possessed the absolute truth I could do nothing further than to press into my patient’s hand a book of devotion or confessional guidance, just what is no longer of any help to him. When, on the other hand, I discover in his untruth a truth, in his confusion an order, in his lostness something that has been found, then I have helped him. This requires an incomparably greater self-abnegation and self-surrender for my brother’s sake than if I assessed, correctly from the standpoint of one confession, the motivations of another.
You underestimate the immense number of those of goodwill, but to whom confessionalism blocks the doors. A Christian has to concern himself, especially if he is a physician of souls, with the spirituality of the reputedly unspiritual (spirit = confessionalism!) and he can do this only if he speaks their language and certainly not if, in the deterrent way of confessionalism, he sounds the kerygmatic trumpet, hoarse with age. Whoever talks in today’s world of an absolute and single truth is speaking in an obsolete dialect and not in any way in the language of mankind. Christianity possesses a , good tidings from God, but no textbook of a dogma with claim to totality. Therefore it is hard to understand why God should never have sent more than one message. Christian modesty in any case strictly forbids assuming that God did not send in other languages, not just in Greek, to other nations. If we think otherwise our thinking is in the deepest sense unchristian. The Christian—my idea of Christian—knows no curse formulas; indeed he does not even sanction the curse put on the innocent fig-tree by the rabbi Jesus, nor does he lend his ear to the missionary Paul of Tarsus when he forbids cursing to the Christian and then he himself curses the next moment.
Thirdly: Because I am a man of science. The Catholic doctrine, as you present it to me so splendidly, is familiar to me to that extent. I am convinced of its “truth” in so far as it formulates determinable psychological facts, and thus far I accept this truth without further ado. But where I lack such empirical psychological foundations it does not help me in the least to believe in anything beyond them, for that would not compensate for my missing knowledge; nor could I ever surrender to the self-delusion of knowing something where I merely believe. I am now nearly seventy years old, but the charisma of belief has never arisen in me. Perhaps I am too overweening, too conceited; perhaps you are right in thinking that the cosmos circles around the God Jung. But in any case I have never succeeded in thinking that what I believe, feel, think, and understand is the only and final truth and that I enjoy the unspeakable privilege of God-likeness by being the possessor of the sole truth. You see that, although I can estimate the charisma of faith and its blessedness, the acceptance of “faith” is impossible for me because it says nothing to me.
You will naturally remonstrate that, after all, I talk about “God.” I do this with the same right as humanity has from the beginning equated the numinous effects of certain psychological facts with an unknown primal cause called God. This cause is beyond my understanding, and therefore I can say nothing further about it except that I am convinced of the existence of such a cause, and indeed with the same logic by which one may conclude from the disturbance of a planet’s course the existence of a yet unknown heavenly body. To be sure, I do not believe in the absolute validity of the law of causality, which is why I guard against “positing” God as cause, for by this I would have given him a precise definition. Such restraint is surely an offense to confessors of the Faith. But according to the fundamental Christian commandment I must not only bear with and understand my schismatic Protestant brother, but also my brothers in Arabia and India. They, too, have received strange but no less notable tidings which it is my obligation to understand. As a European, I am burdened most heavily by my unexpectedly dark brother, who confronts me with his antichristian Neo-Paganism. This extends far beyond the borders of Germany as the most pernicious schism that has ever beset Christianity. And though I deny it a thousand times, it is also in me. One cannot come to terms with this conflict by imputing wrong to someone else and the undoubted right to onself. This conflict I can solve first of all only within myself and not in another.

It was called the most important trial in all of human history.
As a descendant of Adam I felt I had been evicted from the Garden of eden unfairly. I sued God to be allowed back in.
Satan heard about my idea and he supported me on the understanding that if I won it would set a precedent for him to get back his old job. That was a major coup for my side. God has a couple of good environmental attorneys but virtually every high priced lawyer other than them were already in hell. That's how I wound up with Johnny Cochran as my attorney.
The jury was taken from purgatory on the grounds that they could be impartial. They included Socrates, Hammurabai, Confucius and some others I didn't know. I was a bit surprised to see Ghengis Khan though. How he got into purgatory is another question.
Johnny Cochran got things off to a great start when he asked Eve " So this forbidden fruit tree that you would die by eating, was it hundreds of miles away from where you were camping?"
Eve said " No it was less than a mile, I had to pass it every time I went for water."
Cochran asked " Was it called the tree of certain death or something like that so you'd know not to eat its fruit?"
She replied " No it was called the tree of knowledge"
Cochran asked " How did you know that was what it was called?"
She said "The snake told me."
Cochran paused and gave an knowing look to the jury. " Did all the animals talk to you?"
Eve said " No just the snake who lived in the tree."
" Wait , You're telling me that this deadly tree that you were forbidden from eating from on pain of death, called the tree of knowledge, was less than a mile from your camp and had a talking snake it?"
"That's right"
" And what did this snake tell you would happen if you ate from it"
Eve answered " He said that we would be like Gods if we ate it."
"And you believed it?"
"Yes" she said.
"How old were you at the time?" He asked
She answered " I don't know exactly, a couple of weeks maybe."
When he got to the part where God evicted her while she was pregnant with nothing but a couple of fig leaves to wear for eating an apple, I snuck a quick peek at the jury. Even Ghengis Khan was shaking his head.
Unless you live under a rock you know that I won 10 months ago and was admitted back into the Garden. To be honest I'm bored as Hell. There's no internet, not a club in sight and no booze to drink if there were. I would be a lot more depressed if it weren't for my girlfriend. She was talking to a frog the other day and he says he may know a way out.

Awhile back I posted about using clauses (and readings) in the Rosary to help keep the mystery in mind while praying. Recently I've wondered if it were possible to have different mysteries for every day of the week than to repeat them all (except the Luminous) twice a week, which would also allow more Scripture readings. I couldn't really find much, so I created a three more mysteries based on the miracles of Jesus and changed the order a bit. This is a work in progress, and any notes and comments are very welcome. 😁
