A collection of scriptural meditations from Saints and Fathers of the Church.

Dispassion is a peaceful condition of the soul in which the soul is not easily moved to evil.

Guard yourselves from soul-destroying heresy, communion with which is alienation from Christ.

One who is capable of seeing himself is better than one who has been made worthy to see angels.

A holy man told us one day, that the source of all heresies and schisms in the church was, loving God too little, and ourselves too much.

Nothing is better than to realize one's weakness and ignorance, and nothing is worse than not to be aware of them.

Beware of reading the doctrines of heretics for they, more than anything else, can equip the spirit of blasphemy against you.

Only with the greatest struggle and sacrifice is the chaff of heresy separated from the wheat of Orthodox truth.

Self-knowledge is a true idea of one's spiritual growth, and an unbroken remembrance of one's slightest sins.
