Venerable #Paisios, a beacon of monastic renewal, tirelessly translated patristic texts, revitalizing spiritual life in 18th-century monasteries. Facing initial resistance to his emphasis on inner prayer, he persevered, guiding countless monks toward hesychastic practice, fostering deep communion with #God. May his intercessions inspire us to embrace ceaseless prayer and seek transformative encounters with divine grace. O Lord hear the prayer of your servant Paisios. #OrthodoxSaints #Monasticism #Hesychasm #EasternOrthodoxy #PrayerLife
