Topic: Dikiri


In the News (Wed 15 Feb 12)

  
  Dikiri and trikiri - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dikiri and trikiri are liturgical candlesticks, often quite ornate [1], used by a bishop of the Eastern Orthodox Church to bless the congregation.
The dikiri holds two candles, representing the dual nature of Jesus, and the trikiri holds three, representing the three persons of the Holy Trinity.
During a hierarchical Divine Liturgy, the dikiri and trikiri are kept respectively on the northeast and southeast corners of the Altar or on stands placed next to these corners.

 HTC: A brief outline for choir directors of the Hierarchical Liturgy
In most cases, it will be necessary to repeat it several times and should be timed to end as the subdeacons are standing beside the fully vested bishop with dikiri and trikiri in hand.
The deacon will then exclaim: "May thy light so shine before men that they may see thy good works and glorify our Father which is in heaven, always now and ever and unto ages of ages." The choir responds with "Ton dhespotin" and the bishop blesses the faithful.
"Eis polla..." is sung by the choir as the bishop blesses with the dikiri and trikiri at the conclusion of the Cherubic Hymn.
