(see also: Eternity). The spirit of the time, like a whirlwind, howls loudly and tears and breaks many things. This is predicted by the Holy Scriptures, which, in the behavior and way of thinking of the three youths described by Daniel the Prophet, gave us instructions and an example for our way of thinking and behavior. 56.
Now the spirit of the times lies with an enormous weight on all Christianity and monasticism, everyone groans under its burden. They notice that now very, very few well-intentioned, unspoiled people have begun to enter monasteries from the world. We must understand the time and take special care of our salvation, moving away, if possible, from communication with people in order to avoid both the infection of the sins of our neighbor and the condemnation of sin in our neighbor. 173.
