Greek-German, he had a Greek father and a German mother. Do you understand
how this thing works, etc. as a man, beautiful, beautiful, very beautiful,
so I tell him look at me, he says after sitting with us, he says you know, you can
take me with you, show me the holy mountain because I don't know, let's
take you, we say please, he says I want to go to the holy para paisio I'm saying now

say yes, we'll go, and we tell him why, for Christ's sake, and I say bro we are going to break down
the network will go back and forth again we with the suitcases on the back he without guy
nothing the scarpinis scarpinis we didn't have y change them his scarpins we made
a walking stick on the slippery these icy paths to go up or now
it's uphill before it was downhill but after so let's go uphill
to reach the old man and we ring the bell and the old man comes out
again and the old man says the inimitable thing because today it had rained since yesterday and
water got into the cistern, you came to pour the water out again to take it out for
to clean the cistern, good for the lads and he opened it for us, he put us back
in again, the same job, let the water come out that was left inside and
take the man by force, and they talked inside, I'll tell you later why
they talked so much, they talked in detail, they went a little further and m no there further by
they talked yes no the man was a Greek German and he knew
Greek did they talk as long as they talked yes this child began to glow as
the darkness of his face left and glowed and glowed and glowed and glowed and
glowed and glowed and said the old father come here you tell me come here
little angel go there he tells me to tell you he tells me listen now you are taking over all
your life you will pray for a sick man
named michael dead and papas you will become and whatever
you become you will pray for him throughout your life
and he says to the worldly man, stop, you have no right to
pray for this man again, the gospel assumes the obligation of
your prayer
, when we were in Iberon, I had asked him why you came to the
holy mountain and what to me he said a friend of mine died and I came to the holy mountain to
pray for his soul
but be careful I'm the doctor and I'm smart I'm not stupid if you
asked me why he came to the holy mountain I would say a friend of mine died of
leukemia and I came to pray to the holy term a friend of mine died of
cancer a friend of mine died of a heart attack he didn't say from the disease
his friend died and because I'm a doctor I'm saying that's how he died
I understood it immediately but because you know that era
it was immediately associated with this life of homosexuality and that
's why I didn't say anything and we didn't say anything so as not to upset the
man and not to blame him that we were leaving, the old man took him in his arms,
he hugged him like that, and as we went out the door he gave him a
scapinakis and said stop don't be afraid of anything because after you made fun
of me and I didn't understand anything about you, imagine how much he makes fun of the customs
he said yes, you understood what he said to him that is, that I who would understand
the passion you have this my god hid it until u he says I didn't
understand them now now I see them I see them then I explain them then I at
that time I just saw them and he said to him my son don't be afraid guy
nothing he gave him a scabil like that and he says to him I will always remember you but
what did he say to him now listen to stamatis what was stamatis and why did he go to the holy
mountain stamatis for me he is a saint i
remember him as stamatios monk stamatios was born in germany from
a father who was greek but he was a little brutal the father or mother
who raised him was German and he had this
instrumental n in a gym and there in the
gym where he works out e someone approached him anyway it started to
appear she or towards the other f towards the same friend so love etc. and
tenderness etc. anyway the kid came to athens and he was a teacher
of a district which is the kete you know the athens ete and here you have it
here he is paid very well he had a lot of money there he met a
bank employee with whom he related he was the famous
michael, the old man will never remember him again, the
gospel will remember him, you will never remember it, this poor man had fallen ill with ag,
he stopped, he had such madness and love for him that he told him I would get AIDS too,
so that we could be two sick people together be careful these are
spiritual illnesses but be careful what they show the intensity
of passion for which you must again be very careful to be careful
very much how are we talking I want to tell you how
the round paisius was found to show you and how
he dealt with it so you stop the gentleman he fell ill with leukemia then
there were no good medicines now almost all of them are in good health he
gives them and a the Greek state gives an allowance of €800 per month and they also take the
medicines which cost 2000 the medicines and the people get the allowance and
there comes a woman who has breast cancer and her zini 300 for the
breast cancer and the other one who has nothing he gives 800€ because it is this
club and the system and these boxes as I tell you they are exactly
as I tell you we have left one end and went to the other
so the sick person got sick and the parents of the sick person
put him in the hospital they didn't allow him to enter the room, he vented,
the black man under the hospitals from the holy sabbath hospital below and
he was sitting and learned that he had reached 50 kg the other was on a diet and
he was also reaching 50 they told him he lost weight and reached 46 he did he dieted he reached 46
they say he lost weight he reached 43 he dieted but he didn't reach 43 and they tell him
he died and the man died and when the child died he said what should I do for
the one I love oh my god what should I do and I told him go to the holy mountain to
make the fathers pray for the rest of his soul
passion brought him to the holy mountain therefore you must not say anything and because the
poor man did not know what the holy mountain was he thought the holy mountain was the
colonnade square where they gathered he came so in Iberon as
a pillar of the holy mountain which was considered because the Virgin Mary there the pillar is
this Virgin Mary the Virgin Mary the first the royal icon of the holy mountain came
and then we met like this and she begged us to take him to the
old paisio and he went to the old man old man
said listen to me he says shut up you can fast on wednesday and
friday he says I can you make so much money from the German
college you will keep 1/10 for yourself and 9/10 you will distribute to the poor
you can I can he says can you say the greetings
of the Virgin Mary every day I can he said on the heels he doesn't tell me stop I
tell him you can go to the hospital once a week and take care of
a sick person who has no one I can he said stop she is the saint of
God be careful you don't tell him he says you can go
find a spiritual and confess I can he tells him you can follow the rule that
the spiritual will give you to do it I can he tells him you can he tells him
you can go to mass every Sunday I can he tells him and what does the priest tell him
Paisios says to him, do what you can and God will do what
you ca n't
, you understood what he said, go and do what you can and let God
fight your passion for God to do for you what
you can't do that passion drags you and he said to him but he will never remember
this man again and he will not mention his name nor to the
dead this will be taken over by him there bring him here bring him here he says you
and don't say in your life everything and the first that I remember after
my spiritual one in the comunes after spiritual elders and Father Timotheus the
first one that I remember is this servant of God Michael the memorial
one in the row why why is it the order of the elder paisius why
did he take it a stop it turns it turns it turns it you have seen what it means to be an angel
of God, an angel of God, he was visited by the Holy Spirit and lived the rest
of his life in a terrible spiritual state, fasting, vigils, prayers, penances,
confession, dedicated himself,
whoever had a and had not confessed took the spiritual one and went to it
there to confess him, he devoted himself to taking the priests because
the priests did not go to the hospital at that time, the priests did not give them communion,
the jester who knew that he was going to receive communion with a man he had taken him
in his car and took him at night that it was time to
take communion, he took the bodies of the people who had ag, washed them,
cleaned them, prepared the shrouds, and he put them in with his hands in a
bag that was an airtight bag because that's how he had to put them in them and
read the psalter up all night if the world is not worthy who does it the
old man or in a uniform from an old man sitting in a cell
from the way he caught the little fish the little fish fell asleep but not only the
little fish fell asleep but this grace also spread to many other
people how does the servant of God fall asleep the servant of God falls asleep as follows
he told me if I rushed him to a female doctor of mine who was watching him and
told me I had an inconvenience to tell you about this too listen now they have a
synafia the synafis as soon as he found out that the stop left the synafis they say who
is the cause of this fat man they said about me so the saffants of the
godmother make an agreement 10 come from the at the same time they enter the
church where they were singing he leaves he comes he comes he goes up
to the psalter and prepares to bite me
to take revenge on me guys at the time I see
the man I didn't know him I say what he wants and I see him and suddenly
he turns and he leaves in three months when from 2 february 25 march
he tells me stop please go get a man he is very sick
he is dying i go home and i see the one who had come to bite me very
bad with fever and he was dying and i took him to the hospitals Praise Lazarus,
we know this because we lived close to the wishes of the elderly, those who were able to
confess, they went away with their
illnesses, but also the mental illnesses they had, they went away gracefully and that's why
most of them died, listen to the great preparation, great Saturday, Saturday
of Lazarus I have done statistics, most of them died on such days he
stopped he died on good Friday and was buried on good saturday or he had had p
while he had not said that I want to be buried without anyone knowing who I am they would
come to the funeral only the two that I had said I was in Cameroon papas
and I couldn't go to the funeral because I was a big preparation I was in
Cameroon and I sent a man and he didn't even have dead people to
carry him, we carried him with the hands of lay people and they buried him and he wanted his grave
to be covered with soil and that he should not have any candlesticks or anything so that
people would trample him and that is to say, go, you understand, go from one
grave to another for people to trample on him because he was worthy of being trampled on,
so he used to say to you, I ask you, where are you putting him now
in front of us where do you put him what does all this mean
the church doesn't care what everyone is the church has the power to
save everyone and you saw the old paisius with this fine advice he
told him he said do what you can and god will he does the other things and God made
the other things real and covered him and until the end of his life
he confessed again and passed away the spiritual one who confessed for the first time in Athens
told him you will never receive communion only the day
you die this is what the real one told him I was saddened very heavy,
very heavy, I told him how long this had been going on and he said no, and so, my child,
you understood, but because he had gone to the spiritual and he had put this
rule, he waited many years until the spiritual gave him the blessing to
go to another spiritual give the right to cinnabar
in the church with the will did not come with the right that I have a right but came
humbly and quietly
