Hesychasm is not advaita vedanta or dzogchen. It is the Holy Spirit Himself praying within the human person deeply inside from the heart. He prays automatically with your heart and mind over time when you are in full participation in the liturgical-sacramental life of the Church.
Pork is the most widely consumed meat in Greece. It was a highly visible identifier of being a Christian Greek. Greeks payed a 'Pig tax' for a historical staple of the Greek cuisine to remain uninterrupted throughout time and history. Its an unapologetic assertion of sovereignty

“In prison we had the most spiritual life. We reached levels that we are not able to reach in this world. Isolated, anchored in Jesus Christ, we had joys and illuminations that this world cannot offer us.” - Fr George Calciu, interview with Nun Nina

Did you know John D. Rockefeller and his son heavily funded Christian colleges and seminary schools (stocked with heretical Scofield Study Bibles) all across the US? Their goal was to spread modernist Protestantism and, in turn, the false doctrine of Christian Zionism.

«Η ταραχή κι οι λογισμοί φανερώνουν ότι το απαίσιο θηρίο του εγωισμού κατοικεί μέσα μας. Ανάλογα με το βαθμό ταραχής που νιώθει ένας άνθρωπος από μια παρατήρηση που του κάνουν, είναι και το μέγεθος του εγωισμού του.

I have been working with dark personalities (narcissists, psychopaths) in organisations for decades.
I am shocked at how many there are in everyday life.
These are not just people who want attention. These are people who would harm their own child to get something they want.

Oh, how deeply the Holy Angels love the human race! If only we knew how tirelessly they labour for our sake!
How greatly, then, should we honour and give thanks to these magnificent benefactors of ours!
For they intercede unceasingly for us before God, imploring Him to have mercy on us and save us from eternal damnation…
And beyond all this, they are always by our side, protecting and helping us in EVERYTHING!
— Saint Niphon of Constantiana ☦︎

Today is the feast of the Great-Martyr Demetrius of Thessaloniki, the Myrrh-streamer. A young Roman officer who chose Christ over Caesar — and whose relics still stream myrrh 1,700 years later. Holy Demetrius, pray for us!
There is truth to the idea that you must internalize the duality of life to understand it and finally achieve wisdom. But the devil brainwashes people into taking it too far and becoming evil so that they end up in hell. He also tries to control the exposure of evil on his terms.
