Jo, of course. There is no "His" energy — it's God's Energy, that belongs equally to all three Hypostases. The Grace of God is that of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost. The hesychasts teach that Grace is not created means of God's salific work, but an uncreated means proceeding directly from God's essence or nature.
Despite this, and despite sometimes negative attitude towards hesychasts by the Latin side in the past, I will simply refer you to the words of a great Pope of our memory, +John Paul II, at his Angelus Message in 1996 entitled Eastern Theology Has Enriched the Whole Church.
If you think about it, seriously, we may be speaking in different terms but how far can the Apostolic Church really "stray" from herself?
thanks for the clarification. I was starting to wonder! I didn't think that the East had fallen in that direction, that I must have been misunderstanding something! The East has had to deal more precisely with Trinitarian and Christological heresies - so they should KNOW better! We just approach it differently.

"How many things we have in common", said John Paul II. I totally agree. This very thread shows on how many topics we are side by side - despite coming from different backgrounds, we still have retained a common faith due to the Holy Spirit protecting His Church.
