Venerable Basil of Poiana Mărului, a beacon of monasticism in 18th-century Romania, significantly reformed Romanian monastic life. He was a key figure in promoting hesychasm, or the inner prayer of the heart. He was a teacher and spiritual guide, instilling discipline and a deep connection to God in his monks. His legacy includes revitalized monasteries and a renewed focus on prayer, influencing generations of Orthodox Christians.

Let us pray to Venerable Basil, that through his intercessions, we find the path to inner peace and unwavering faith. #Saints #OrthodoxChristian #Prayer #Hesychasm #Monasticism
