    I am a medical professional, and also a sufferer of clinical depression. in my worse-off days I attempted to kill myself several times - before I returned back to faith
    its astounding the hate you will get for discouraging medications and encouraging prayer and devotion, that is why I mention I am a medical professional: I understand just as much as the "experts" but now my opinion is void - the seething hatred as I try to help save lives is really something else to be experienced.
    As confidently as a man can say before God - I will never be returning anywhere near to the point of suicide, I am unwaveringly confident about that, with no "therapists", no pharmaceuticals. Gods love is something stronger than I understand or deserve

      If you haven't already, you should get to know Saint Luke the Surgeon, he was imprisoned and exiled many times by the communists for his faith.

      Many examples of the ascetic way of life. Many strange hermits and anchorites and people isolated in their monastery cell, seeing visions and other imaginary sins

    Great work, man. You have a wonderful voice for narration.
    Some advice: If you’re going to record Orthodox books, you _have_ to include author/title. And when possible, citations of which Father said what. We are all about “authority” when it comes to receiving wisdom in the Church. It’d be good to know “whose hands we’re in,” if we’re going to engage in your work. (I know you referenced that it was Met Hierotheos, even so, to speak it into each recording you upload will take it all to the next level.)
    Please consider!
    Keep it up!

    Is this from a book or something? Did you write this? I need to know who’s saying all this to determine what authority it has.

    If one is designing a work of visual art, is he thinking or using his imagination? Is it possible to design something without imagination?

    • @EverydayLifeLessonsABC
      @EverydayLifeLessonsABC  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      No, that is lawful use of the imagination. The use of the imagination in spiritual matters such as described in the video is dangerous.

      @@EverydayLifeLessonsABC I see so it is lawful to use the imagination for creative activity, but if we want to be perfect, especially as monks, we should try to avoid having to use the imaginative faculty in every sense

      It is an excerpt from Metropolitan Hierotheos of Nafpaktos, "The Science of Spiritual Medicine."
      I have sent an email to Jean Claude Larchet as well, to obtain permission to excerpt sections from his, "Therapy of Spiritual Illnesses."

    I love the orthos but leave it to them to think imagination is a root cause instead if the effected area.

      Imagination came about due to the fall. Adam in his prelapsarian state did not have imagination. Neither did Christ according to the Holy Fathers. Please watch the full videos on this subject.
