"When I came to Mount Athos as a youth I found many old and holy people. Above lived old man Ignatius of 95 years, blind, he had a non-stop mental prayer. Because of that prayer, a smell came out of his mouth, so that everyone approached him to feel it.
There was also the most miraculous old man Danilo, his liturgy lasted up to four hours because he couldn't shout out of affection. The tears he shed were wet soil under his feet.. A little lower, the old man Gerasim from Chios, a 90-year-old man who lived on the top of Prophet Elijah for 17 years, made a non-stop mental prayer, fucked by winds and beaten by demons, remained an unshakable pillar.. Nowadays you can't even hear about something like that anymore, people even when they hear something like this they react in a hostile manner and consider you unreasonable and crazy.. and I put a mockery of you.
