CANDLE CEREMONYBy *Antonio C. Garcia, MD, FPCR

NARRATOR: PBR Secretary

Narration: “In the beginning of the practice of radiology darkness reigned”….. (pause for a minute)

*** Lights in the room will be turned incandescently low or almost dim. The President of the Philippine College of Radiology, assisted by two vice presidents, shall seek and find the most senior fellow of the College present in the occasion. While this is on-going, the narrator continues ……..

Narration: “and the Radiologist bravely walked in search of the light. The Radiologist found others engulfed in the same darkness similarly searching for the light. Together they strode on, hearing only the echoes of their footfalls that barely guided their path. Only the strength of their spirits and embers of their souls made them exist and persist. They heard nothing in the blowing wind and felt emptiness in their hands. The darkness flashed no scintillation to motivate them, and only the purpose of their stride energized them to move on. But something inevitable happened as they gathered their spirits into one. Their unified embers glowed brighter and burst into visible light, as the flames of their spirits spread far and wide across the land and even beyond.”

*** The President shall present to him/her the ceremonial candle. The most senior fellow shall then light the ceremonial candle.

*** While lighting the ceremonial candle, the most senior fellow shall utter, “I light this candle in the name of the Philippine College of Radiology”. Once the ceremonial candle is lit, a moment of silence shall be observed by all to honor those fellows of the College who have passed away.

Narrator: Let us pause for a moment to honor those fellows of the College who have passed away. Let us pray for the souls of:

After a moment of siilence, the president with the two vice presidents shall then take the ceremonial candle and proceed to where the chairperson of the Philippine Board of Radiology is standing.

*** The President shall hand over the lighted ceremonial candle to the chairperson and utter, “By the burning flame of this candle you shall spread the light to brighten the path of the Philippine College of Radiology”.

Narration: “Tonight, we symbolize the spirit in the flame of the candle. The light is the embodiment of us in the Philippine College of Radiology. Tonight, we pass this light to the new radiologists so that they may be one with us in the unending pursuit of reinventing the profession of radiology in its highest commitment to medical science in serving humanity..”

*** The chairperson shall, assisted by the other members of the Board, light the individual candles of the inductees and utter, “Accept the light of the Philippine College of Radiology”. ***After all candles have been lit, The chairperson shall again utter these words (on the mic):

“Accept the light of the Philippine College of Radiology.” ***ALL inductees shall then respond, “We accept”( In unison).

***In the midst of the glowing candles, the President of the Philippine College of Radiology shall swear the inductees of the Philippine Board of Radiology. After this induction rites all lighted candles shall be extinguished, and the members of the College and all present shall greet the new diplomates of the Philippine Board of Radiology by a warm, congratulatory applause.
