Agios Paisios

❤️ On Love and Spiritual Life

• “Spiritual love is superior to the love between natural brothers and sisters because one relates to another through Christ and not a common mother.”
• “Love with external poverty greatly assists in acquiring the inner poverty of the passions.

🧠 On the Mind and Prayer

• “Everything starts from good thoughts. This is what elevates a person and changes him for the better.”
• “Live simply and without thinking too much, like a child with his father. Faith without too much thinking works wonders.”
