Patristic-Hesychastic Tradition Page

This page is dedicated to the heart of Orthodox Christian Faith, namely, the Apostolic and Patristic Tradition of the purification, illumination and glorification of man in Christ. Unfortunately, there are all too few Orthodox Christians, theologians or web sites highlighting this core of our faith, so I have chosen to bring some articles and links together here, in the hope that we may all strive to live this Tradition more fully and incorporate it as the central part of our Orthodox mission in the West today.
