the warrior old man sometimes temptations come one upon
another and i can't bear to tell you a solution to avoid them will you accept yes
the only solution to avoid temptations is to make an alliance with the
devil what are you laughing at you don't like this solution look let me tell you as long as one
struggles he will have temptations and difficulties and as long as he tries to avoid
temptation the more the devil goes against him but with temptations if
we use them properly we are given the opportunity because some sometimes our life is
anti-evangelical, let it become evangelical, old man, I get involved in some trivial
things and then I have no desire to fight for something higher, these are like
the mines that the enemy lays in order to make the army a
mess when it sees that it cannot do another damage to the fighter looks
how to save him in trivial things then know that there are also
small tangalikas who do a lot of damage but once they asked a small
tangalika so what can you do me what can I do I go and tangle
her threads seamstresses to shoemakers
replied and I make them angry the biggest scandals are caused by
trivial things not only in us but sometimes also in the states in
spiritual people there are no serious reasons for
scandals from the little ones the devil takes an opportunity to crush a person mentally with
something stupid childish things so he does his heart as he wants and
there is no one left after a log because old man while I put a program a row
in my race and I am in the mood to fight soon I forget you don't you know the
tangalaki when he gets news that we are doing spiritual work the
button turns elsewhere, while we put a program in one row we find ourselves in another and if
we don't pay attention we realize it after days c that's why the fighter must
go all the way against the devil of course with discrimination and be watched by
an experienced spiritual person who does not do subtle work on
himself his satan fights him satan does not go to a useless man
but goes to a fighter to tease him and make him useless he does not waste
his time doing fine work to one who does not fine work
sends to him who sews devil with
sakura to him who does fine work sends devil who does
fine work to him who does high embroidery sends devil who does very
high work to those who do coarse work to himself sends
coarse devil to beginners sends novice devil to people who
have a delicate soul very honorable and they are sensitive, they need to be careful because
the devil also puts them on his tail and makes them more sensitive and they may
reach melancholy or even, God forbid, suicide,
while the devil makes us people go against our neighbor
and we argue he himself never goes against the negligent it
makes him more negligent it gives him rest with calculation your head hurts you are not
in the mood it doesn't matter if you don't get up for prayer it makes the reverent one more
reverent to throw him into pride or pushes him to struggle more
of his powers so that he can recover and leave behind all his spiritual
weapons and surrender the former multi-combatant makes the hard-hearted more
hard-hearted the hypersensitive and you see how many people some because they have
some sensitivity and others because their nerves have been shaken suffer
from insomnia and they take pills or they are tortured and
[music] I enjoy myself, man, balanced,
they became batteries, most people are like they have
electricity, those who do not even confess are under demonic influences,
they have a demonic magnetism because the devil has power
over the few people, whether boys or girls or old people they
have a view peaceful monism you know what
demonicism means not being able to get along with the world the devil
injects us with anesthesia I told some doctors who were discussing the
anesthesia they do in the operations of the temptation anesthesia has bad
effects on the person while the one that do you helps his anesthesia
of the devil is like the poison that the snake throws into the birds or the
bunnies to paralyze them and swallow them without reacting the devil
when he wants to fight a man he first sends a little
devil anesthetist to make the man unconscious first and then he goes
himself and he cuts him he does what he wants but first
the anesthesiologist injects us with
anesthesia and we forget to see the nuns we promise
insultingly and mockingly and finally the temptation
sometimes confuses us and we do the opposite of what we promised
otherwise we start and end up somewhere else we started to go and elsewhere
we go, we don't
pay attention, I haven't told you examples, in the past
there was no bank in Konitsa, people were forced to go to Yannena when they wanted to
get a loan, so some of them started from the surrounding villages and walked
72 km to get a loan to buy something thanks to a
horse then if anyone had a horse he could support
his family he mated with someone else's horse and plowed once one started
to go to the yannens to get a loan to buy a horse to plow
his fields and not be disciplined to he digs with the hoe, so he went to the
bank, got the loan, and then he passed by the Jewish stores and was fooling around,
the one Jew was watching him, pulling him in, take him in, barba, I have a good thing,
he came in, the Jew started taking the places off the shelves,
passing them he was shaking them take it he said it's good and for your children I'll
give it to you cheaper he was leaving one he was moving on he was fooling around in another come
barba me he was saying the Jew I'll give it to you cheaper he was taking down the places
he was opening them spreading them he was dizzy in Finally, the poor man also had a bit of charity, he tells you
now he took down the cloths, spread them out and supposedly for his children
, he gave the money he had taken from the bank cheaper
and I bought a cloth cloth but even that was a waste,
what should a rich man do? he couldn't say cloth, he took as much as he
needed, he finally came home with a pile of rotten cloth, which is the horse,
when I brought cloth for the children, he says, but what to do with it, so much cloth
was charged to the bank in the meantime, and he only got one horse topi pani
homeneni let him go digging with the hoe in the fields again and struggle
to pay off the loan if he bought a horse he would come back riding and buy
a few things for his house and he wouldn't kill himself digging with the hoe
but for fooling around in the Hebrew shops, you saw what happened, that's what he does, and the
devil, like a cunning merchant, pulls you from here, pulls you from there,
puts you in trouble and finally manages to get you where he wants,
where you start and where you end up, if you don't pay attention, he tricks you and you lose. your best
years the devil does everything to prevent
man from being helped the devil is a craftsman if he brings, for example during the divine
liturgy to a spiritual man a merciful calculation he will
understand him he will be shaken and he will drive him away c this brings him a spiritual
calculus such and such a book says to him write this for divine
liturgy then it will draw his attention for example to the chandelier he will
wonder who made it or it will remind him of a sick person he needs
to go see inspiration says the time liturgy
while it is the devil who intervenes and the man catches
the conversation with his calculation so he hears the priest say after fear and
then he understands that the liturgy is over and he did not
participate at all yes and here in the temple the church goes to light the
candles in the chandelier and I have noticed that even adults are distracted by the
temptation over there and they look at the sister how she lights the
candles, this is completely childish, only small children are happy with something
like this and say light them, that is, this
is for small children justified but for adults or while we have to
avoid movements during the liturgy, the temptation can be
that during that holy hour a sister turns in the lectern the genders of the book
to make noise and distract the others they listen krutch krutch what's going on they say
and thus the mind departs from God and rejoices in the tangaliko so let
us be careful not to become the cause of distracting others at the time
of divine worship we do harm to the world and
we do not understand it or notice in any reading when the reader reaches
the holiest spot from which people will be helped then or
the door will be slammed by the wind or someone will cough and
they will be distracted and they won't benefit from that holy spot so
the tangali does its job oh if you could see him devil how does he move haven't you
seen him and this is something you don't understand he does everything so that
the man is not helped I have noticed it in the hut when
I am talking as soon as I get exactly to the point I want in the most sensitive to
help those who hear me then or some noise it happens or others come
and I interrupt, the
devil first makes them look around the corner or see something and arranges for them to
come to the most delicate point of the discussion so that I can change the subject and not
benefit because when the discussion begins the devil knows where it will end and
because he sees that he will be harmed he sends someone exactly at the most sensitive point
to interrupt me father where do we enter he shouts get loukumi and water
and come from here I tell them others enter at that moment so
they interrupt me because I have to get up to say hello others come after a little while
and I have to get up again, they start talking about where you are from, so
I am forced to start again from the beginning and repeat the
example I was giving, as soon as I walk on, the other one shouts from below, father,
where do you live from? it's the door come on get up again find the temptation six or seven
times a day he did the same to me until I was forced and I put some
guards you sat there and watched that no one comes from here you sit
here until I finish my work six seven times to start a whole story
bringing them the point where they will be helped and the tangalaki to
create scenes see the temptation turns the button it continues on another
frequency as soon as the competitor gets a little moved by something he turns
the button elsewhere and forgets with that he remembers again some spiritual trick
reminds him of something else it makes him all tumbling man if he learns how the
devil works he will get rid of many things old man how will he learn to watch if
one watches one learns you see the shepherds are the
best meteorologists because they watch the
clouds the wind the wing of the will, the world is easily influenced both for
good and for evil, evil is more easily influenced because there is a rule,
and the devil falls, for example, to quit smoking because it is harmful, as soon as he
decides to quit, the devil will come and say that
cigarette has less medicine the other one has a filter and cleans smoke from
that one they won't hurt you, that is he will find an excuse not to
quit, he will find a solution because the devil can find us a lot of
excuses and that cigarette that he suggests can harm him even
more because we need to have a will and if one does not cut
his locks when he is still young then it is difficult to cut them because as
age passes the will weakens if a person does not have a will he cannot
he does nothing, the holy goldenrod says whether he wants it or not, hen everything
, that is, everything depends on whether the person wants it or not, it's
a big deal, God is good by nature and
always wants our good, but we need to want it too, because the
man then spiritually with two wings with the will of God and with
his own will God
has permanently stuck one wing his own will to our one law but in order to fly spiritually
we must also stick to the other wing our wing the human
will if man has a strong will he has the human wing which
balances with the divine wing so he flies while if his will is food
he goes to fly a little and takes it again he tries a little again somersault old man
the will is cultivated we don't have say that everything
are cultivated will is present in all people some few and
some more when a person is in the mood to fight he prays and
asks god to increase his will and god helps him when he doesn't
make a move then the person knows that or he doesn't put no will or she will
put some and she will be weakened so again that doesn't
help a bird let's say she has one wing strong but neglects the
other a few feathers fall off and then she can't fly
properly one wing works fine but the other it's like a broken
bird, the bird moves it but air gets in between and it can't
fly well, it flies a little and then somersaults,
it must have this wing intact to be able to fly like that
and man, I mean, must be careful and don't neglect the
human will if you want to keep flying correctly
spiritually because what the little kite does is go slowly and pulls from the
human wing first a small feather then another one a little bigger and if
the person doesn't pay attention it also pulls out a big one so it goes to fly and
he can't even if he pulls a few wings then when he goes to fly
air gets into the wing that is missing wings and it flips the divine wing is
always full completed it doesn't lack wings because
the devil can't pull them and take them out is
divine, let man be careful not to be negligent and the devil pull
a feather from his own wing when laziness begins little by little,
a little indifference weakens the will, what can god do if he doesn't want
man doesn't want to intervene because he respects man's freedom
is thus wasted by man and god's wing but when he has a will,
that is, he has his own wing wax, then god wants and
man also wants and man flies, i.e. old man, what exactly is
this flying, do you mean I want to progress spiritually
I want my salvation to find a child when I say flying I mean the ascent
spiritually I don't mean to fly to climb in any city
you had said old man that one can plow and sow and do all
the related procedures and not even take out the seed yes, that's the way it is, if
one is not careful, the devil steals his work, while if he is careful and
takes seriously the issue of the salvation of his soul, he struggles,
bears fruit, is nourished spiritually and
rejoices angelically, the words of an elder paisius , a saint, a production of the radio station Agia Meteora
