2:53 After a lot searching I finally figured out the elder he was referring to here and the book he referenced. He is referring to Elder Aimilianos of Simonopetra and his book “Λόγος περί Νήψεως” (Lógos perì Nípséos), which translates to “Discourse on Vigilance” The book is only written in Greek and has not yet been translated into English. However there is a book and series of videos on RUclips called “Walking on the Waves: An Everyday Guide To Nepsis” by a spiritual child of Elder Aimilianos, Bishop Emilianos of Meloa. He teaches the concept from Elder Aimilianos for laypeople in English.
@@ВадимЧабанюк-я5с I started to write but I realized it's impossible to put it into words especially in a youtube comment as my journey has been long from atheism to conspiracy theories and agnosticism to accepting Jesus but denying church and veneration and Theotokos but after 7 years of research I realize I was just uninformed and didn't understand anything and I started to research orthodoxy and have since found so many answers from saints and monks and same w this video .Jesus prayer has helped me insanely and I am stunned by the power of it and how I can reach the state of total tought control snd recognize it and if I pray the Jesus prayer the thoughts just pass sometimes id start doing the cross frantically and Jesus prayer when I would see im falling into my toughts and it has always helped and it really makes me focus on Jesus and being humble i have alot of work to do I ended one journey from atheism trough agnosticism and conspiracies to Christ but now I start a new journey of a trully personal relationship and I started to cry when praying sometimes out of shame and disgrace sometimes of happiness and comfort but its always good feeling and reassuring I believe theotokos has touched me or hugged me during one of first timea doing Jesus prayer trully from my heart I was overwhelmed w such warmth and love I also knew it was Her as I denied her but just recently I accepted Theotokos veneration and Church andnibstarted to cry and beg to never let me go and I promised I will never leave no matter what and if i will accept any judgment that comes upon me because obv if I don't get to heaven there's very good reason for it but also I was a party ,festival goer living an amazing life by human standards the more I got deeper into myself I realized it's all temporary and worthless and slowly my heart just lost interest in things I centered my whole life about and oeganized my life around certain festivals I wanted to attend and plan a year im advance etc now it was worthless and I'd rather sit in a field or by myself and pray or read the Bible or learn from watching videos like this I have been to Church to my first 2 diving liturgies last week and going this week on Friday,sat and Sunday I cant wait . Lord Jesus Christ Son of God have mercy on us ,sinners.This is supposedly a short version xD but I hope it makes any sense .
46:04 why would remembering this moment be more effective or desirable than prayer? Is it because it doesn’t matter how you defeat the evil thought and pray as long as you defeat the evil thought and pray?
Some people do not have the necessary attention span or the spiritual stamina to pray. Of course prayer is always the best option but in certain cases chanting, a positive thoughts or a simple walk in nature can benefit
I don't know if this specific book is translated in English, but you can get any book from Elder Aimilianos of Simonopetra and you will never regret it.
Thanks for the amazing video!I’m currently having thoughts about becoming a satanist and when I ignore the thoughts my brain says oh well you want the thoughts or you like the thoughts.I also have OCD what should I do?
@@NathabBohrait helps to imagine the thoughts like they are people trying to come into your room and sit on your bed or chair. Imagine and try to become an empty room so that when the people come in they don’t have anywhere to sit. Eventually being tired of standing around, they will leave. Also make it a habit of reading the psalms, maybe 3-5 chapters a day to start and when you are consistent, you can add some more chapters (remember that consistency is better than quantity). Good luck dear one. God Loves you to death (literally). Never give up hope.
@@holyresurrectionofchrist I purchased "The Way of The Spirit" on kindle last night. After just reading a few pages I was amazed with Aimilianos. You seem to be right that there is something special about his insight.
@@holyresurrectionofchrist You hit the bulls eye. I am reading his work "The Way of the Spirit" on kindle books. It takes the philokalia and amplifies it with sophistication
This is a great presentation! Thank you 🙏☦️

@@holyresurrectionofchrist Can you spell out the book he mentioned around 3:00. Washington it Pennipnisous?
46:04 why would remembering this moment be more effective or desirable than prayer? Is it because it doesn’t matter how you defeat the evil thought and pray as long as you defeat the evil thought and pray?
Maybe it’s because that love in that memory is part of nepsis

Please help me..where can I purchase this book?

@@holyresurrectionofchrist HOLY CONVENT OF THE ANNUNCIATION CARRIES MANY OF HIS BOOKS IN ENGLISH
@@Kimberley-j6kthank you, I looked and couldn’t find This particular one. Let me know if you can. God bless you
Thanks for the amazing video!I’m currently having thoughts about becoming a satanist and when I ignore the thoughts my brain says oh well you want the thoughts or you like the thoughts.I also have OCD what should I do?
Go to confession if you are Orthodox. If not, try to find an Orthodox Parish and talk to a priest.
@@holyresurrectionofchrist I can’t because I’m 13 and from a non orthodox house
@@holyresurrectionofchristshould I just reject the thought and not think about it?
Yes. Ignore the thoughts

Basically, he says its a crucial life changing book, and then doesn't inform us it isn't available in English. Disappointing.
I think that soon it will be available in English. However if you find any book by or about Elder Aimilianos of Simonopetra you will only benefit.
