Sergiu on Nostr: During his imprisonment under the communist regime, Fr. Dumitru Stăniloae translated ...
During his imprisonment under the communist regime, Fr. Dumitru Stăniloae translated the Philokalia into Romanian. In solitary confinement, with limited resources, he meticulously worked on this monumental text, which became a cornerstone of modern Orthodox thought in Romania. His translation and commentary opened up the rich spiritual tradition of the Church Fathers to a wider audience, revitalizing Orthodox spirituality during a time of intense persecution. Pray that through his intercessions, we may find strength to preserve our faith amidst adversity and gain wisdom from the Holy Fathers.
