Explanation of the Litany of the Holy Name of Jesus

Our litany in the Catholic Church would be called a manthra by the Hindus, who originated it.

By the way, James, we also copied the rosary from them and the Budhists and Muslims.

Saint Francis of Assissi was among the Muslims. They had prayer beads which he copied. He introduced the rosary in his congregation of monks.

Now there are 150 beads for the Hail Marys.

Hi everyone.

I've read some about ST. Francis of Assissi. Some authors were trying to make the connection of "pantheism" and St. Francis of Assissi. What impressed me about this saint was his revelations about God being present in nature and all around us.
