A shrewd observer, a master psychologist, an accomplished raconteur, Dorotheos is also a learned man with a prodigious capacity for assimilating in an organized harmony the wisdom of his precedessors in the life of the Spirit. Yet he is far more interested in humbly serving his brethren than in discoursing about the recondite aspects of the hescyhast experience. His genial candor makes him the ideal spiritual master to introduce modern readers to the rich spiritual universe of the deserts of Egypt, Palestine, and Syria.

Seller's Description:
New. Translator Eric Wheeler calls Dorotheos of Gaza's teaching ''pure Christianity. '' That means a little rough around the edges, simple but hard-hitting. Direct. His sayings evince a certain indelibility with anecdotes and illustrations appearing in nearly every paragraph--certainly every page. These are instructions, yes, and often difficult in their wisdom. As a monk and elder of the desert monastery in Thawatha (in the region of modern day Palestine), Dorotheos' pursuit was holiness; his work, self-renunciation and prayer. The nearer he came to God, the more clearly he saw himself as a sinner--and sought to communicate that vision to his brothers in community. With patience, we might see it too. 259 pp.
