Sayings of the Desert Fathers

#6

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
