Humanamente hablando, nada presagiaba que fuera Silouan (1866-1938), el monje adscrito al economato y al molino del Monasterio de San Panteleimon, quien pasara a la posteridad. Silouan había llegado a la Santa Montaña del Athos en otoño de 1892. Por aquel entonces era un joven e inculto campesino ruso con el servicio militar recién cumplido. Allí emprendió un combate espiritual que se prolongaría hasta su muerte. Más aún, su denodado esfuerzo ascético va a depararle una experiencia del cristianismo idéntica a la de muchos Padres antiguos.

About the author
Saint Sophrony the Athonite
Saint Sophrony, started his monastic life on Mount Athos. His acquaintance with Saint Silouan became the landmark of his life. He lived as a cenobitic monk at St Panteleimon’s monastery and later as a hermit in the caves of Karoulia. After twenty two years on the Holy Mountain, he travelled to Paris for medical treatment, where he served as a parish priest. In 1959, he founded our monastery in Essex, England, where he served as the abbot and spiritual father. Towards the end of his life he withdrew to live once more as a recluse. Read more…

Sophia (verified owner) –
I am so delighted to have a book of St Silouan’s writings in Spanish.
I have long wanted to find translations of the writings of the Holy Fathers.
English is my first language.
My Spanish is very poor. I can only express simple thoughts.
My hope is that, with God’s help, I will be able to process the Spanish translation (albeit very slow to stick), and then be able to express my more important thoughts in Spanish.
I hope other books such as this will be translated into Spanish.
It’s a great blessing!
