- Title
Meditation and Hesychasm - a Transdisciplinary Approach.
- Authors
LĂCĂTUŞ, Adrian-Neculai
- Abstract
Throughout the historical ages, man has sought to approach the Divinity in various ways: through fasting, prayer, meditation, etc. The states of asceticism reached by the Holy Fathers have remained a testimony and persist over the centuries. Not only in Christianity have such states been obtained, but in almost all religious traditions. Nowadays, man has not given up his relationship with God and certain practices are still perpetuated today, especially in the Holy Mount Athos. In this paper we will mainly address the hesychasm, but we will also draw a number of parallels with other religious doctrines in order to make a theoretical analysis of asceticism.
