Venerable #Paisios, a beacon of monastic renewal! Leaving behind worldly pursuits, he sought spiritual depth at #MountAthos, then led communities in #Romania. Through tireless translation, he revived hesychastic prayer & brought forth the Philokalia's treasures.

O, Paisios, pray that we may embrace the Jesus Prayer with fervor! May our hearts be purified to see God's light. 🙏 #OrthodoxSaints #SpiritualFather #Velicikovski
