The revolutionary changes in mental outlook that took place in Western Christendom some three or four centuries ago, and that produced the modern scientific movement, are the major cause of the crisis in which the world finds itself today. Yet the terrifying consequences of the practical exploitation of modern science are usually attributed not to modern science as such, but simply to its misapplication and abuse.
This book attacks such misconceptions head-on and at the deepest level. By setting the modern scientific picture of the universe and man’s place in it against the pre-Christian cosmology and anthropology, the author

Yet the terrifying consequences of the practical exploitation of modern science are usually attributed not to modern science as such â€â€ and still less to
Metropolitan Hierotheos of Nafpaktos wrote this book about Elder Sophrony as an expression of gratitude for his long association (17 years) with the Elder and “to share with readers the spiritual wealth that I unworthily received”. The first part of the book is a spiritual portrait of Elder Sophrony. After a brief survey of his theology, the author examines the Elder’s writings in the light of the experience of saints of the Church, particularly St Paul, St Symeon the New Theologian and St Gregory Palamas, thus placing his teaching in a wider context. There is a careful analysis of the

The modern human being boasts about his spiritual and technological achievements. Despite that, he is not the psychically liberated, because he looks for the psychical freedom there where it does not exist. The way and the procedure through which the human succeeds to conquer and live his psychical liberation are offered in this book-having as a leader the Holy Bible and the holy Fathers of the Church.
If only we could invest a
moment in the Kingdom
of God and realise that the
returns are extremely high.
So high that in the Kingdom
there is no time, no fear,
no inhibition, inferiority,
insecurity, guilt – none of
those things which trouble
us in this life. This is the
blessing of God’s freedom. It
is this which we must bring
to life within us here on
earth, until each one of us
will be able to change from being temporal to being eternal,
from being only human to being spiritual.77 pages
