Origin/meaning

The sun with the letters IHS, cross and nails are the symbol of the Society of Jesus, to which he belonged.
The star is a symbol of St. Mary, the fruits are the fruits of the Spikenard (Nardostachys jatamansi), a plant which is used as a symbol for St. Joseph.
The motto, “Miserando Atque Eligendo”, (Because he saw him through the eyes of mercy and chose him) is taken from a homily by Saint Bede the Venerable regarding the calling of St. Matthew by Jesus.
