This spiritual classic, Unseen Warfare, was written by the Catholic priest Lorenzo Scupoli, then after seeing its value, later edited and revised by St. Nicodemus of the Holy Mountain and St. Theophan the Recluse. In the same spirit as the Philokalia and other writings of the Orthodox Holy Fathers, this book offers detailed guidance for anyone desiring to please God.
This recording is chapter 9: "On Protecting the Mind From Too Much Useless Knowledge and Idle Curiosity." The teaching will be especially helpful for the naturally quick-witted and argumentative, those consuming news and current events, and anyone struggling to avoid distractions and submit their will to Christ. Quoting St. Basil the Great, "Let listening to worldly news be bitter food for you, and let the words of saintly men be as combs filled with honey."

The man with pride of mind is serving someone unknowingly, Lucifer. I suffer from this sin. I'm sick.
