Thank you brother, the Orthodox way is truth in action, it is food for the soul, the Orthodox Church is heaven on earth, narrow is the way few who find it.
I came here today for refuge to cope with the man made deception in the sky on innocent humans who are many, that cannot see what they are doing. And there it is again, just beyond the cross, on the cover of this video. Please lord grant me respite, please speak to my mind, heart and soul through this teaching. My heart feels like it is growing weary and dry. Lord Jesus Christ, son of God, have mercy on me a sinner.
You’re right, the modern phenomena in the sky is tragic. I see it in my town too. We can’t stop the spirit if the age but we can help preserve ourselves and those close to us from its harmful effects. Be courageous in the sight wickedness.
@@OrthodoxWisdom Thank you so much for your wisdom! I appreciate so much your validation and ability to see the situation with grace. I’ve brought the topic up one other time (I deleted the comment as to not draw attention to myself) and you suggested reading the teachings of the elders and specifically mentioned Elder Thaddious, this helped me tremendously as well as this video today that I was listening to today. I appreciate you and this channel so much, some days things are so isolating, and I am here for solace and glean much more. Many many thanks. You’re awesome and you make such a positive difference more than you know. 🙏🏼♥️ May God grant you many blessings always.
Even though the sky alteration is in plain site for all to see, many will get angry and dismiss it. There is a spiritual veil that causes many people to deny what is overtly being done. Alternately the people who do see it have Grace from God to recognize this evil intent. Lord we pray to keep our minds on you in this spiritual battle. God bless my brothers and sisters in Christ, knit our hearts together through your Love, Amen

Another wonderful presentation thanks so much. Tim did a fantastic job. Also thanks for sharing the link to the book. What a treasure! God bless you all! 🙏
Thank you. I appreciate your recordings very much. While I understand the virtue and necessity of recording works that are more polemical in nature and address contemporary issues within the Church, I find the most value in pieces such as this one, as well as in your patristic recordings, that are more tuned to one’s personal spiritual life. The kind of things you might hear read in a refectory. Just a little user feedback.
Absolutely. I agree. I’m constantly trying to offer a variety of things and not simply record what I’m am quickly drawn to and that which will get a reaction. Thank you.
Maybe " esoteric" is a wrong word...since secret knowledge is attached to it...and Orthodox is transparent....so I will trade it in for....what a divine revelation...for me

western rite is a distraction and unnecessary. St John Maximovitch speaks out against it and compares the WR to baby's milk for those who cannot handle real, adult food. The WR is yet another way the evil one divides the true Church and was never meant to be a permanent solution.
The nous can engage with the mind, but the activity of the nous goes beyond the mind and all words and human concepts because it’s this part of us that is the core of our being and our communion with the uncreated energies of God.
Its so unfamiliar for me to pray.. You dont tell God of all eternity of all grace wht to do.. Im 44 and i don't know how to pray.. Whatever u do do with all ur heart.. Im terrified unable to distinguish true from untrue
lunacielo5705...there are Orthodox prayer books...with a variety of prayers for a variety of topics....to begin is right where you are....saying what you have just said to the Lord....that you do not know how to pray....teach me! This is also what saying "The Prayer of the Heart "...also called the "Jesus Prayer" is all about."Lord...Jesus Christ...Son and Word of God...have mercy on me...a sinner." It can also be shortened. Many Saints speak on this prayer...The power of it! I love the simplicity of it...and I am not praying for my will to be done...even if it wonderful things for others. It connects our mind and heart...and we are calling on Jesus...we are confessing him as Lord....and for me it was important to confess myself as a sinner. "Lord...Jesus Christ...have mercy on me...a sinner"
Hi. Begin with saying Glory to the Holy Trinity. Give thanks fir everything you have ever received and still continue to receive from God. And ask for forgiveness of your sins. I dont like reading the prayers from a book because it feels not real to me. So I use my own words. And when I feel I am done, I say this is everything for today and prostrate again. But I continue to ask for forgiveness even afterwards. I pray for forgiveness more than anything, for mine and everyone elses. May it be so. Maybe this can help you. May God bless you.
I pray daily; “Come Holy Spirit, Come! Guard my heart, mind, mouth and tongue. Give me the Words of The Holy One.” It’s very edifying l
Come holy spirit guard my heart mind mouth and tongue

Praying these very words could have the potential of leading you well yourself.

Glory to God. The grace of God is God Himself, and we call Him in our daily prayer to the Holy Spirit “the Comforter, the Spirit of Truth”

Thank you! May I recommend the reader slow down just a LITTLE bit in the future! Not much, just a little.
Change the playback speed to your liking.
You can control play back speed by selecting the “gear” icon. I also sometimes wish for a slower speed.
Whoa, never knew about playback speed. Thanks!
I agree. This topic cannot be digested in a rush.
God bless. 🙏🕊☦️

Hey, what do you think about the Western Rite Orthodox Church?
I'm Western Rite.
Do you have a question?
@@susanlacy5225 Is the Western Rite Orthodox Church accepted by the Eastern Orthodox Church.
@@Unknown86483 yes it is fully canonical
western rite is a distraction and unnecessary. St John Maximovitch speaks out against it and compares the WR to baby's milk for those who cannot handle real, adult food. The WR is yet another way the evil one divides the true Church and was never meant to be a permanent solution.
So would the mind be the activity of the nous?
The nous can engage with the mind, but the activity of the nous goes beyond the mind and all words and human concepts because it’s this part of us that is the core of our being and our communion with the uncreated energies of God.
@@OrthodoxWisdom I think what makes it confusing is that nous is translated as mind but yet is not the mind as we know it In the west
Exactly. Be patient and prayerfully press into the deeper experience and awareness of this.
@@diegobarragan4904 Mind as used in philosophy - metaphysical substance; not mind as in thoughts, etc.
