Venerable #Paisios, a beacon of monastic revival! Leaving his homeland for Mount Athos, he sought deeper communion with God. Finding spiritual aridity, he embraced the Philokalia, igniting his heart. Gathering disciples, he translated patristic texts, revitalizing hesychastic prayer, emphasizing inner stillness in the heart. His influence spread far, renewing monasticism across the Orthodox world, guiding souls back to the Jesus Prayer's transformative power.
O Holy Paisios, pray that we may embrace the Jesus Prayer and find stillness in our hearts. Guide us to seek God through inner reflection and devotion. May your example inspire us to seek communion with the Divine.
