Authors

More about the book

The book explores the foundational principles established by Pachomius, who created the first written monastic rule. It emphasizes a balance between communal prayer, including daily recitations of well-known prayers like the Lord's Prayer, and individual ascetic practices. The rules evolved to accommodate varying levels of proficiency among monks, promoting both spiritual discipline and practical work. The structure of the day is designed around liturgical practices, integrating manual labor with time for reflection and reading, highlighting a holistic approach to monastic life.
