If A Person Wants To Get An Idea About The Pyramids Of Egypt, He Must Either Trust Those Who Have Been

“If a person wants to get an idea about the pyramids of Egypt, he must either trust those who have been in immediate proximity to the pyramids, or he must get next to them himself. There is no third option.

In the same way, a person can get an impression of God: he must either trust those who have stood and stand in proximity to God, or he must take pains to come into such proximity himself.”

+ St. Nikolai Velimirovich

Is there an Orthodox Christian book club on Tumblr yet? If not, please reply if you’d like to start one!

Reply with your favorite Orthodox book / what you’re currently reading / what you’re planning on reading next!

My current favorite Orthodox book is My Elder Joseph the Hesychast. I’m currently reading St. Paisios the Athonite’s biography but I plan on reading St. Silouan the Athonite’s book next!

reading spiritually beneficial books and then getting on the internet for social media is like painting a masterpiece worthy of a palace, spinning 360 degrees, then projectile vomiting onto the canvas.
