"No I don't."

It is a different view from yours, isn't it. It is from the writings of a very, very holy Orthodox monastic, Archimandrite Sophrony of blessed memory, a Russian who spent the majority of his life on Mount Athos, seven of those years as a solitary, and in a monastery outside London of all places. His entire life was spent in prayer and study of the scriptures. He died in 1993.

Isn't it interesting that the indwelling of the HS lead this man to a vision of God so different from that which we hear about in the West?
