Episode 3: The Jesus Prayer and Yoga
The third episode in our series discusses the vision of God as experienced by St. Gregory and the Hesychasts through the practice of the Jesus Prayer. In his defense of noetic prayer - the prayer of the heart - St. Gregory presents the Orthodox understanding of the vision of God.
Themes covered in this episode include what is meant by unceasing prayer, Abba Lucius and the Euchites, in the Sayings of the Desert Fathers, and the difference between Orthodox prayer and yoga.
