VIDEO: Archimandrite Zacharias
The heart’s the inner person, it’s the centre of our personality. Where we can encounter God, where we can make our free choice concerning Him, that’s the centre of our personality. And we can’t find our heart by our own efforts. We find our heart, because we have to say that the aim of the Christian life is for our intellect to be united with our heart. Because then we’re healed, we’re whole and we can turn to God with our whole being, fulfilling in a Godly manner the commandment where He asks us to love Him with all our heart, all our soul, all our being.
Archimandrite Zacharias (Zacharou), of the Holy Monastery of Saint John the Baptist, Essex, in an interview with Pemptousia, speaks of finding the heart, and its importance in Orthodox spiritual life.
