Inhaltsangabe

Following this Russian pilgrim is the path to discovering an ancient method of prayer.

The prayer of the heart is a spiritual practice that produces joy, inner peace, and a heart brimming over with love for all creation. This delightful account is the story of one man who sets out to learn the prayer of the heart—also known as the “Jesus prayer”—and how the practice transforms his existence. Its anonymous author was one of the wandering pilgrims who were a regular feature of the Russian countryside from medieval times up until the early twentieth century. Through his eyes we get a charming look at rural life in nineteenth-century Russia, and with him we discover the secret to putting into practice the words of St. Paul: “Pray without ceasing.”

This SkyLight Illuminations edition guides you through an abridged version of the text with facing-page annotation explaining all the names, terms and references for you. Including a glossary of terms as well as an annotated list of other resources, it provides interesting facts, demystifies theological language, and brings the text beautifully to life.
