  • Sveshnikov-Mental Imagery in Prayer
    Mental Imagery in Eastern Orthodox Private Devotion by Father Sergei Sveshnikov Just as there can be a properly trained voice, there can be a properly trained soul.[1] —Fr. Alexander Yelchaninov This presentation is based on the research that I undertook for a book titled Imagine That… : Mental Imagery in Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Private Devotion, published in paperback in February of 2009 with the blessing of His Eminence Archbishop Kyrill of San Francisco. The work is an analytical comparison of Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox attitudes toward mental imagery. In this presentation, I wish to focus specifically on the Orthodox tradition of prayer. * * * Eastern Orthodoxy displays a great degree of uniformity in following a path of stillness of thought and silence of mind to achieve the prayer of heart in private devotion. Saint John Climacus writes in The Ladder (28:19) that “the beginning of prayer consists in chasing away invading thoughts…” (285) The mind is to be freed from all thoughts and images and focused on the words of prayer. Further in the chapter on prayer (28), St. John instructs not to accept any sensual images during prayer, lest the mind falls into insanity (42; 289); and not to gaze upon even necessary and spiritual things (59; 292). Unlike some forms of Roman Catholic spirituality, the Orthodox Tradition does not encourage the use of mental imagery. In fact, it almost appears to forbid sensory imagination during prayer altogether. In the words of one of the contemporary Orthodox elders, Abbot Nikon (Vorobyev) (1894-1963), “that, which sternly, decisively, with threats and imploring is forbidden by the Eastern Fathers—Western ascetics strive to acquire through all efforts and means” (424).

  • GLIMPSES INTO the KNOWLEDGE, ROLE, and USE of CHURCH FATHERS in RUS' and RUSSIAN MONASTICISM, LATE 11T H to EARLY 16 T H CENTURIES
    ROUND UP THE USUALS AND A FEW OTHERS: GLIMPSES INTO THE KNOWLEDGE, ROLE, AND USE OF CHURCH FATHERS IN RUS' AND RUSSIAN MONASTICISM, LATE 11t h TO EARLY 16 t h CENTURIES David M. Goldfrank This essay originated at the time that ASEC was in its early stages and in response to a requestthat I write something aboutthe church Fathers in medieval Rus'. I already knew finding the patrology concerning just the original Greek and Syriac texts is nothing short of a researcher’s black hole. Given all the complexities in­ volved in the manuscript traditions associated with such superstar names as Basil of Caesarea, Ephrem the Syrian, John Chrysostom, and Macarius of wherever (no kidding), to name a few1 and all of The author would like to thank the staffs of the Hilandar Research Library at The Ohio State University and, of course, the monks of Hilandar Monastery for encouraging the microfilming of the Hilandar Slavic manuscripts by Ohio State. I thank the Dumbarton Oaks Research Library and Collection; and Georgetown University’s Woodstock Theological Library as well as its Lauinger Library Reference Room for their kind help. Georgetown University’s Office of the Provost and Center for Eurasian, East European and Russian Studies provided summer research support. Thanks also to Jennifer Spock and Donald Ostrowski for their wise suggestions. 1 An excellent example of this is Plested, Macarian Legacy. For the spe­ cific problem of Pseudo-Macarius/Pseudo-Pseudo-Macarius as it relates to this essay, see NSAW, 78-79. Tapestry of Russian Christianity: Studies in History and Culture.

    Saturday, June 5, 2021 Does God care about sex(uality)? Ideas from the ‘world’ ❖Sex as necessary for fulfillment as a human being ✤Freud to now ✤New Age and Tantric(esque) beliefs have taken a prominent role in society. ✦Sex as an expression of the Divine itself ❖Sexual expression as a main identity marker, which that is/was being repressed by social systems ✤Sexuality is a performance that must be supported ✦Multiple Identities based on partner choice or attraction or support for this sexual performance ✴Polyamorous?

    FROM THE FATHERS “DEMONS take great delight in fullness, and drunken- ness and bodily comfort. Fasting possesses great power and it works glorious things. To fast is to banquet with Angels.” Saint Athanasius the Great, + 373 A.D. “FIRST THEN we must trample under foot gluttonous desires, and to this end the mind must be reduced not only by fasting, but also by vigils, by reading, and by frequent com- punction of heart for those things in which perhaps it recollects that it has been deceived or overcome, sighing at one time with horror at sin, at another time inflamed with the desire of per- fection and saintliness: until it is fully occupied and possessed by such cares and meditations, and recognizes the participation of food to be not so much a concession to pleasure, as a burden laid upon it; and considers it to be rather a necessity for the body than anything desirable for the soul.” Ven. John Cassian the Roman + 435 A.D. “WHY DO DEMONS wish to excite in us gluttony, forni- cation, greed, anger, rancour and other passions? So that the mind, under their weight, should be unable to pray as it ought; for when the passions of our irrational part begin to act, they prevent the mind from acting rationally.” Ven. Nilus of Sinai, + 451 A.D. 1 “WHEN HEAVY with over-eating, the body makes the intellect spiritless and sluggish; likewise, when weakened by excessive abstinence, the body makes the contemplative faculty of the soul dejected and disinclined to concentrate. We should therefore regulate our food according to the condition of the body, so that it is appropriately disciplined when in good health and adequately nourished when weak.

    THE DISCERNING OF SPIRITS PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Frank Hammond | 44 pages | 17 Nov 2014 | Impact Christian Books | 9780892283682 | English | United States The Discerning of Spirits PDF Book There is so much to be done in the coming weeks and months as we continue to grow in so many areas of ministry and as we look toward our planned services around the world. But the highest and best use of the gift of discernment is to see what God is doing. The Ladder of Divine Ascent. For whenever assistance comes from God, the soul is never elated; instead, it is always humbled. This exact thing happened to me. For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart Hebrews , ESV. When I first took notice of it I thought it was a person, I assumed a stalker. Then once the demons have been exposed as being on the inside of that person, then you can move in to set that person up for a deliverance if they will be open to it. My Prayer Request. Anyone else ever experience the same. Here is how this gift will come into play with each one of these kinds of spirits. Even if you are just starting out, God can use you powerfully. I realized that my own self was changing when I got depression because when I was a kid, I love Jesus so much, I always attend Sunday school, etc.

    Hieromonk Alexander (Golitzin) ´THE DEMONS SUGGEST AN ILLUSION OF GODíS GLORY IN A FORMª: CONTROVERSY OVER THE DIVINE BODY AND VISION OF GLORY IN SOME LATE FOURTH, EARLY FIFTH CENTURY MONASTIC LITERATURE I. A Little Noticed Controversy with Broader Implications The monk, John Cassian, the bishop, Palladius of Heliopolis, and the Church historians, Socrates and Sozomen, all agree that the Archbishop Theo- philus of Alexandria’s pascal letter of late winter, 399, hit a nerve among the monks of Egypt.1 Theophilus had taken the occasion to condemn at length the teaching that God has a human form, and it was this condemnation which drew an army of angry monks to his doors looking to string him up from the nearest lamppost.
