The Meaning of the San Benito Medallion
The ancient symbol of peace is worn by those seeking faith, hope, and protection.
In the arms of the Cross is the acronym
C S S M L - N D S M D, which stand for the rhyme:
C S S M L - N D S M D, which stand for the rhyme:
Crux sacra sit mihi lux!
Nunquam draco sit mihi dux!
Translated to English:
The Holy Cross be my light;Let not the dragon be my guide.
In the corners of the cross are C S P D, which stand for the same words found on the front over the pedestals: Crux s. patris Benedicti (The Cross of our Holy Father Benedict).
Above the Cross is the word "Pax" (Peace), the Benedictine motto.
