Ascetic Speeches - Interpretation to Abba Isaiah / Archimandrite Aimilianos Simonopetritis

Those who lived close to Elder Emilianos during the first years of his brotherhood's settlement in the monastery of Simonos Petra have kept in their hearts the meetings during which he offered his word to his spiritual children. Often the Elder would speak spontaneously on subjects dear to him, and he liked to comment on the life of a saint, or a patristic text. One of these was the ascetic discourses of Abba Isaiah. A particularly successful choice, because this text is a fine synthesis of the teachings of the early monks of Egypt in the 4th and 5th centuries. Such a commentary is a wonderful illustration of the spiritual tradition within the Church.
