Three Texts on Prayer and Purity of Heart
Short teachings on prayer and purification
Three short teachings from Palamas on prayer and the purification of the heart — the relationship between moral purification and the capacity for genuine prayer. Brief and practical, offering concentrated guidance rather than extended theological argument. A useful supplement to Palamas's longer and more technical works, showing the pastoral and practical dimension of his thought. Read these alongside or after the Declaration of the Holy Mountain to see Palamas in a different mode.
