"Adam, father of all mankind, in paradise knew the sweetness of the love of God; and so when for his sin he was driven forth from the garden of Eden, and was widowed of the love of God, he suffered grievously and lamented with a mighty moan. And the whole desert rang with his lamentations. His soul was racked as he thought: 'I have grieved my beloved Lord.' He sorrowed less after paradise and the beauty thereof - he sorrowed that he was bereft of the love of God, which insatiably, at every instant, draws the soul to Him.In the same way the soul which has known God through the Holy Spirit but has afterwards lost grace experiences the torment that Adam suffered. There is an aching and a deep regret in the soul that has grieved the beloved Lord.Adam pined on earth, and wept bitterly, and the earth was not pleasing to him. He was heartsick for God, and this was his cry:'My soul wearies for the Lord, and I seek Him in tears.'Thus did Adam lament, and the tears steamed down his face on to his beard, on to the ground beneath his feet, and the whole desert heard the sound of his moaning."- page 448 from The Writings of St. Silouan the Athonite as complied and edited by St. Sophrony of Essex
JOURNEY INTO THE STILLNESS OF THE DESERTChapter 1: The Life of St. Mary of EgyptChapter 2: The Life of St. EugeniaChapter 3: The Life of St. EvpraxiaChapter 4: The Life of St. EuphrosyneChapter 5: The Life of St. Thais the HarlotChapter 6: The Life of St. Mary the HarlotChapter 7: The Life of St. Pelagia the HarlotChapter 8: The Life of St. Maria (Marinus)The lives of eight women saints who battled against the passions and overcame the devil, emerging from the contest as triumphant victors.The great holy women of the Orthodox Church lived ascetically in silence, fasting, and prayer and found hesychia—the deep inner stillness that leads the soul to spiritual peace and perfect union with God. Concentrating their entire being within, they made their heart heaven and lived paradise on earth, the Lord dwelling with them. They left us their lives as guides so that we could follow their footprints to the priceless peace found only in God.Published by: Saint Anthony's Greek Orthodox Monastery Press - Arizona
