Quotes

"Continuity of attention produces inner stability; inner stability produces a natural intensification of watchfulness; and this intensification gradually and in due measure gives contemplative insight into spiritual warfare. This in its turn is succeeded by persistence in the Jesus Prayer and by the state that Jesus confers, in which the intellect, free from all images, enjoys complete quietude."

- St. Hesychius the Priest, On Watchfulness and Holiness

Abba Theonas

"Blind your eyes to all that is held in honor in the world, so that you may be held worthy to have the peace which comes from God reign in your heart."
