„Tainica rugăciune“ liturgică a Sfântului Paisie Velicikovski închinată Bisericii
Abstract
The present material aims to highlight one of the most appreciated
figures of the Eastern Christian world – Saint Paisie Velicikovski, a monastic personality
who transformed his life into a genuine and authentic liturgy dedicated to God and
people. Appreciated as a priest and a scholar with pan-Orthodox echoes or even a
spiritual synthesis of Orthodoxy, the superior monk embraced by the Romanian spirit of
Dragomirna, Secu and Neamț monasteries helped with the shaping of the image of the
monk as a person who lives only to please God. Through an ever-renewing perseverance
in the Spirit of prayer, Saint Paisie enriched the Orthodox monastic space with true
liturgical and spiritual contributions enjoyed not only by the Romanian people, but
also by the Slavic land – native to the saint, as well as the “Orthodox motherhood
fortress” – the Holy Mount of Athos.
