Paperback. Condizione: New. Main. This is a collection of texts on prayer, taken from Greek and Russian sources. The spiritual teaching of the Orthodox Church appears here in its classic and traditional form, but expressed in unusually direct and vivid language. The Art of Prayer is concerned in particular with the most frequently used and best loved of all Orthodox prayers - the Jesus Prayer. It deals also with the general question 'What is Prayer?', with the different degrees of prayer from ordinary oral prayer to unceasing prayer of the heart, with the dangers of illusion and discouragement, and the need for seclusion and inner peace.

Paper Back. Condizione: New. A privileged glimpse into a sort of working journal of a monk intent on achieving unceasing prayer. Igumen Chariton was a monk who joined the famed Valaam monastery at the turn of the century and became its superior between the two world wars. In 1936, he decided to publish this anthology, writings he had found most helpful in nurturing a fruitful life of prayer. A vast majority of the texts come from the writings of St. Theophan the Recluse, who Chariton felt faithfully summarized and transmitted the teachings of the Philokalia. (It is instructive to note that Chariton felt that the Philokalia itself might be too difficult for his readers -- mostly monks! A cautionary note for those of us who presume to approach that work!). Other writers make their appearance: Ignatius Brianchaninov, St. John of Kronstadt, St. Ephrem the Syrian, and St. John Cassian, as well as other writers included in The Philokalia. The burden of The Art of Prayer is essentially to teach the disciple to ''stand before God with the mind in the heart'' -- all the riches of Orthodox anthropology and spiritual teaching can be drawn from a careful exegesis of this apparently simple formula. 287 pp.

Prima edizione
Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. "The Philokalia" is an important collection of writings by Fathers of the Eastern Church dating from the fourth to the fourteenth century. It exists in three versions: the Greek, complied in the eighteenth century; the Slavonic; and the Russian. The Russian text, translated by Bishop Theophan the Recluse in the nineteenth century, and consisting of five volumes (with which a sixth is sometimes associated), is the most complete of all three versions. It is the Russian text that has been used in translating into English this selection, which presents a range of "Philokalia" writings concerning the Jesus Prayer. This is a collection of texts written between the fourth and fourteenth centuries by spiritual masters of the Orthodox Christian tradition. First published in Greek in 1782, the writings were translated into Slavonic and later into Russian. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
