ممقوت عند اللـه كل نياح جسدانى
الأنبا بيمن

Abhorred by God is all bodily comfort.

الرهبنة هي: الصوم بمقدار، والصلاة بمداومة

وعفة الجسد وطهارة القلب وسكوت اللسان وحفظ النظر والتعب بقدرالإمكان والزهد في كل شئ

القديس باخوميوس

Monasticism is: prolonged fasting, continuous prayers, purity of the body, purity of the heart, silence of the tongue, conservation of the sight, pursuit of hardship, and attaining asceticism.

-St. Pachomius

Sayings of the Desert Fathers
monks learning

#14

أربعة يحتاج إليها العقل كل ساعة:
الصلاة الدائمة بسجود قلبي – محاربة الأفكار –
أن تعتبر ذاتك خاطئاً – ألا تدين أحداً.
القوى القديس الأنبا موسي

Four things the mind needs every hour: continuous prayers with a contrite heart, fighting of thoughts, considering yourself a sinner, and not judging others.

-St. Moses the Strong
