Metropolitan of Nafpaktos Hierotheos
translated by Effie Mavromichali
“The contents of this present book offer a brief introduction to Orthodox spirituality. It is not the author’s purpose to analyse the subject comprehensively, but rather his intention is to introduce on a 'small entry' the domain of Orthodox, ecclesiastical tradition. I must notice that the meaning of the term 'spirituality' is better rendered by the phrase 'spiritual life', because it is not an abstract condition being referred to–as is understood in the West–but rather it is the energy of the Holy Spirit within the person.”
