Description

The Philokalia is a foundational collection of texts by spiritual masters of the Greek Orthodox Christian tradition. First published in 1782 and translated into various languages, it has had a profound influence on the Orthodox Church and continues to be widely read today. This five-volume set presents the first complete English translation from the original Greek, covering themes of universal importance such as developing inner powers, overcoming fragmentation, and achieving spiritual wholeness. The editors have provided introductory notes, a glossary of key terms, and a detailed index to aid understanding. A valuable resource for those seeking to deepen their spiritual practice, The Philokalia offers insights into the lives and teachings of these revered figures, providing guidance on how to cultivate inner stillness and union with God.
