Lygal. John Climacus, Rev.

The creation of the Monk John the Lynchik, the hegumen of the Sinai Monastery, called the “Lessel, or the Spiritual Tablets,” was written in the VI century as a saving guide to a moral life. Although the book was created for the spiritual perfection of the monks of the monastery, any Christian living in the world can receive with its help a reliable guide to the Kingdom of Heaven. This is the composition of the Christian theologian, composed of thirty steps of improvement, is designed to teach a person how to deal with vices and passions, how to live piously and restore the image of God in the soul.
