Greetings all,

In the news, a nice article on the collection and translationof ancient Byzantine spiritual texts known as the Philokalia:

These ancient texts were translated by a monk at Mount Athos called Nicodemus, (born 1749 AD) who undertook a lifetime of compiling, and translating so that the spiritual wisdom of the Empire would be preserved. A fascinating story!
