The
Emblem of the college is in the form of
a shield with a Crown studded with twelve
stars and flying flags on the top and bottom
with the name of the college and the motto
engraved on them respectively. The shield
pictures a traditional lamp, placed on a
hill top, which is enlightened by two hands
symbolizing the lighting of the lamp of
knowledge to remove the darkness of ignorance.
It reminds the words of Gospel:
"You are the light for the whole world. No- -one lights a lamp and puts it under a bowl; instead he puts it- -on the lamp stand, where it gives light for everyone in the- -house. In the same way, your light must shine before people....."( John: 5:14 )
The
The dove symbolizes the Holy Spirit who illumines the mind, with the divine ray and the alphabet 'M' inside a star stands for Blessed Mother Mary who is acclaimed as the morning star. |
