Sketch the outlines of each conversation (logical points, terms). I shouldn’t eat a bun in the morning at all: it’s harmful. Drink no more than a glass of tea: anything beyond that is a whim. Addiction to sweets has an extremely harmful effect on the soul and body; paralyzes her terribly. Leave all sweets as they greatly interfere with love for God and neighbor. Brother Konstantin - [...] only we have relatives whom he can go to and whose affection he can count on - how can you not caress him, not caress him? Through our affection, which we owe to him by blood, and by reason, and by the Gospel, he will give up his sin, his red tape. To the bourgeois section of the Duma - the attitude about the homelessness of the bourgeoisie of Kronstadt and his thoughts about the Workers' House. Baptism according to the statutes of the Orthodox Church. If you are preparing to preach, fast. The apostles fasted. Do not be lazy in preaching during the year, but with unfailing zeal do the work of an evangelist [2 Tim. 4, 5], teach spiritual food to your flock: that you may be a true shepherd of the verbal 1 sheep. No. 1. To Father Theodore - a review of Shakhmatov. Soon you will be forced to cook lean oatmeal and porridge and eat it with poppy seed oil. Lenten pearl barley soup with carrots and roots. Liquid caviar is a very [very] useful thing: it drives away the slaughterhouse. Sweet jelly is a very harmful thing. Eat smelt soon. Smoked herring without bread is good. Wine berries are useful before tea. It is deadly for me to eat cream and meat: it all falls like a mountain on the heart, the spirit is suppressed: it falls into terrible sorrow and oppression. No wonder the saints avoided everything fat and fatty. In the third grade of the gymnasium, go through morning and evening prayers by heart. Make them buy prayer books. Explain prayers. Irmos and troparia for Sundays and holidays to teach. The archpriest, for no good reason, forces us to serve Matins earlier when there is early mass. This means that I can serve mass whenever I want. For the father’s unreasonable release of two sextons at once, he should be fined and told to be more careful and circumspect in the future. Josephovich ten rubles and “Spiritual Conversation” volume 17. (In addition, donate two books: “Letter of the Eastern Metropolitans” and “Words” by Yanyshev.) During Holy Week, go to the school church to see how the high school students stand. February 19. Go [it] to Kalmykova to talk about the Chukhonka. Send the poor to Burakova. To Alexey Iv. Mokhov should go. Ovodov invites you to baptize the baby. I will baptize and send it to Epiphany for a record: [to say] that out of weakness I baptized the baby. Remember this Bishop, at whose right hand the devil resisted him (Zech. ch. 3, v. 1) - every, that is, right 2 thought, and word, and deed, so as not to be horrified at what happens. "Philokalia". Part IV. St. John of Carpathia, consoling chapters. 74th chapter 3. Poison, sweetness, selfishness, and earthiness in general drive me out of my home paradise, but I should be heavenly. Good red port at Strauch's. Dmitriev's grape wines are worse than Straukhov's - they are mixed with alcohol. In the evenings, don’t eat at night, and don’t eat meat at all. You loved the womb more than preaching and the word of God. The cream is punishing me. January 26. Resurrection. After communion, milk and cream are inappropriate. Muddy. We must pray for the battery “Pervenets” and “Krasnaya Gorka” (transport 4). About the holidays of the Orthodox Church. I. Historical part. II. The dogmatic part. III. The part is liturgical and ritual. IV. The moralizing part (of each holiday). Any excess in food, drink (especially smoking tobacco) is the cause of relaxation and greater impurity of the heart (and abundant food) and the source of all passions. Therefore, abstinence is necessary for a Christian to excel in purity of heart and in all virtue. Woe to the intemperate! Woe to drunkards! Woe to the gluttons! Good for the abstainers! It is good to strengthen hearts with grace, and not with foods from which those who engage in them do not benefit [Heb. 13, 9]. Fish increases scrofula, or putrefaction, especially smoked fish. Remove this obscene house from our street. [100 fathoms in total – 20]. Riots, screams at night. On December 31, I received news from Pasynkov about his intention to build a Workhouse for the poor. God bless! (They take their father’s unction for himself - why should I yawn.) Not always. For the unction of the elder Autonomus, Father Matthew either took it for himself or took nothing. Because of gluttony, I am exposed, especially on holidays, to terrible temptations from the evil one. How could he not have swallowed me up before? General talk about the unsatisfactory confession of Fathers Paul and Matthew, the vulgarity of Archpriest Trachevsky at confession: indulgence in sins. The incident with the coachman: I confessed three times: to Father Matthew, to Father Paul and to me. Everyone is dissatisfied with the service of Archpriest Trachevsky, even small children. The children of the orphanage and the three-year-old child of Father Platon Trivlinsky (Plato), their words - whose voice is this, the universal groan? Slovous (Church Slavic) – intelligent, endowed, unlike animals, with the gift of speech. In other words, to the right (Church Glav.) – that is, to the right. “Remember the Bishop onago, at whose right hand the devil stood to resist him (Zech. 3:1) - that is, every right thought, word and deed - and do not be amazed when something like this happens” (Philokalia. Vol. III. M., 1900, reprint. ed. 1992). Wed. The book of the prophet Zechariah ch. 3, art. 1: He showed me Jesus the great priest standing before the Angel of the Lord, and Satan standing at his right hand to oppose him. We are talking about Jesus, the son of Josedek, the first high priest of Judah after the return of the Jews from captivity; in the prophecy of Zechariah he appears as a prototype of Christ the Savior. Transport – a sea vessel for transporting people and goods. Prosperity (church glory) – improvement. You might be interested in:
