Venerable #Paisios, as a young monk, yearned for deeper spiritual understanding but found the available texts lacking. He painstakingly translated patristic works, reviving the practice of hesychasm—silent, contemplative prayer—within his monastic community. Facing opposition and hardship, he remained steadfast, guiding countless souls towards inner peace and the illuminating grace of God. May his example inspire us to seek divine wisdom through prayer and unwavering devotion.
Holy Paisios, pray to #God for us! #Saints #OrthodoxChristian #Prayer #Tradition
