Description:PrefaceThis book is an offering to our brothers and sisters throughout the world, for 'love does not seek its own', but desires communion with others, teaching us to sing in 'other tongues'. We cannot say 'we have no need of you', for without you our joy would not be complete (I Cor. 13.5; 12.21). Elder Aimilianos was our guide, teacher, and father in Christ, and remains so this day. We lived with him for many years, traveling together in the way of the Spirit. The discourses collected in this volume give expression to his personal experience of God, which was always real, living, and dynamic. We believe that they will fill you with joyful hope.Even so, we have here only the surface, the crest of a rising wave, continuous with an infinite sea. In the receding tide, we discover traces on the shore, like sounds in an empty shell that once harbored life. There we look, listen, and wait. To love, in a sense, is to accept and consent to this distance. But these are no ordinary signs, and from here our journey begins, as on the threshold of spiritual change.Read this book in the spirit of peace, with no anxiety about understanding new concepts or learning things under pressure. Let your reading and and attention be unforced, a form of prayer. As you hold the shell to your ear, listen for the word of God, and enter into communion with him. 'How sweet is the voice of our Beloved! The winter is past. flowers appear on the earth, the time of singing has come (Song 2.10-12).Pentacost 2008Archimandrite ElisaiosAbbot of the Sacred Monastery of SimonopetraMt.
