Silence and honey cakes. The wisdom of the desert. Williams R.

The book introduces the reader with the Christian ascetics of the 4th century, known as “Hermitory Fathers and Mother-Service Mother”, who went to the Egyptian desert to spend their lives in Asian and spiritual thoughts. One of the fruits of their spiritual path was a wonderful collection of statements and aphorisms, which are still relevant for today's readers. The fathers and mother of the desert laid the foundations of the first Christian monasticism, and the author of the book uses the study of their stories and statements as a starting point for his own reflection on topics such as relationships between people; knowledge of oneself; revaluation of life values; silence and importance of the word; Fearlessness and self -restraint; Life and death.

The book is designed for a wide range of readers.
