Philokalia

Book • 1998

Anthony M. Coniaris

The Philokalia is a collection of writings by various Eastern Orthodox Christian spiritual fathers.

It offers a comprehensive guide to the practice of Hesychasm, a contemplative tradition emphasizing inner stillness and prayer.

The texts cover a wide range of spiritual topics, including prayer, repentance, and theosis (deification).

The Philokalia has been influential in shaping Orthodox spirituality and has also resonated with seekers from other traditions.

Its enduring appeal lies in its practical guidance for spiritual growth and transformation.
