Guard of the heart and discernment
School of discernment
"Be attentive to yourself, be the gatekeeper of your heart, and let no thought enter without questioning it" (Evagrius Ponticus, 4th century)
How can we find our true bearings when the heart is in the grip of passions that distort reality?
The monastic fathers offer a path of truth, healing, and liberation that remains remarkably relevant despite the centuries that separate us from them.
