| фрагмент из д/ф "Афон. Где нет ни неба, ни земли" (2004) For english translation thanks for www.youtube.com : ..." Anyone who leaves this world in order to become a monk, leaving it not out of hatred for him, not because he feels thft the world is disgusting. He hates the sin that reigns in this world and wants to leave the evil. The more the monk is getting far from the gravity of his sins so the love of Christ, that is inspiring in him, creats in his heart a desire to? bear the sins of others, to give all himself, not only his passions, which are alien to human nature, but that which is inherent and natural to human nature, his virtues, acquired by fasting, vigil, great difficulty doing. He wants to give it to be able to communicate with God, Which surpasses? nature, and Which Grace he began to feel. to spread this Grace to others. God is love, and as the sun shines on everything, so the one who enters into communion with Christ, the God of love, can not keep this love just for himself , but spread it to people yearning for love for they can repent their? sins and got the opportunity of Salvation. |
