339. Мирской человек о монашеской жизни судить не может

M. St. O. n. G.I.H.B.n. p.n. The mercy of God be with you, and may the Lord calm your troubled soul. If you write that you have reconciled with your confessor, that’s good. Try not to judge him, but pray for him. And you don’t have to listen to his discussions about monasticism and eldership, but ask Mother Magdalene about this. Otherwise, a worldly person cannot judge monastic life in any way, because it is incomprehensible to him. Peace to you and God's blessing. Try not to argue with the cell attendant. Tell her what you need, and if she makes excuses, then remain silent, if possible. You might be interested in:
