Hierotheos Vlachos



His Eminence Hierotheos, Metropolitan of Nafpaktos and Agios Vlassios in Greece, is regarded as one of the foremost authorities on the Orthodox spiritual life. A prolific writer, he has authored more than fifteen books, many of which have been translated into English. His Eminence’s theological vision may be summed up in the following quotation, taken from his The Science of Spiritual Medicine: “The whole therapeutic method of the Orthodox Church is not aimed simply at making human beings morally and socially balanced, but at re-establishing their relationship with God and one another. This comes about through the healing of the soul's wounds and the cure of the passions through the Sacraments and the Church's ascetic practice.” ...more

“[...] trebuie să citim cărțile cu inima, nu cu înțelegerea seacă. Să citim cărți scrise cu inima, care pot fi citite cu bucurie de inimă.”
Hierotheos Vlachos, A Night in the Desert of the Holy Mountain: Discussion with a hermit on Jesus prayer

“Să nu urmărim, așadar, să facem noi înșine cele dumnezeiești, și să nu ne așteptăm ca Dumnezeu să le facă pe cele omenești. Trebuie să înțelegem bine acest lucru: noi săvârșim cele omenești, Rugăciunea lui Iisus, și Dumnezeu cele dumnezeiești, adică mântuirea noastră.”
Hierotheos Vlachos, A Night in the Desert of the Holy Mountain: Discussion with a hermit on Jesus prayer

“-O, lumea aceasta nefericită! - răspunse pustnicul. E cârmuită de diavol. Zilnic le-aduce oamenilor lucruri și întâmplări ca să le-alunge din minte pomenirea lui Hristos. Îi face să nu se mai uite la ei înșiși și la rănile lor lăuntrice. Îi face să fie mai interesați de alții decât de ei înșiși.”
