(22) The Path to Salvation - Rules for Struggling with the Passions...

The Path to Salvation: A Manual of Spiritual Transformation by Saint Theophan the Recluse
Part Three: How Christian Life is Lived, Ripened and Fortified, and About the Order of a God-pleasing Life
Chapter 7 - Rules for Struggling with the Passions, or the Beginning of Self-Opposition.
Saint Theophan, pray for us!
One of my listeners suggested I add music at the end so she wasn't jolted out of her peaceful listening by a sudden loud KZbin ad, so I added 15 seconds of chanting at the end of the video which I will do from now on.

this is incredibly helpful! Thank you so much! Is this playlist his entire book or is it abridged in some way?

[@orthodoxandrew]

I have yet to finish the book. Will be recording the next chapter soon. Only 3-4 more videos and the book will be complete. It is not abridged. I'm glad you find it helpful! 😁
