336. Советоваться лучше всего со своей духовной матерью. Не должно привязываться сердцем к деньгам. Не желай чести или похвалы: это вредит душевному спасению

M. St. O. n. G.I.H.B.n. p.n. May the Lord be with you and teach you good things. What you did, don’t regret it, but it’s better to do everything forward with advice, and don’t rely on your own reason. It is best to consult with your spiritual mother, who knows your inner life and external way of thinking and therefore can give fair advice. And the fact that a monk should not have any money is now difficult to fulfill, especially in women's monasteries. It’s not a sin if you have a small supply; It’s not a sin if they remain after death. Just try not to get attached to them with your heart. Treat Mother Superior with respect and humility. Do not seek preference over others and do not desire honor or praise, because this harms spiritual salvation. Consider yourself worse than everyone else and humble yourself before everyone. Peace to you and God's blessing. You might be interested in:
