11:03 am
such an association, well , lent has begun, yes, this is a special, special time that allows you to let mercy, forgiveness, light into your heart, our meeting today, it will not be considered a sin, it’s possible, no, because i have a blessing, word for permission synonym - it's a blessing if you have:
11:04 am
maybe their desires, which are not a sin for her, but somehow interfere, let’s say, here’s one of my sisters, i was on duty in the church , and a girl came up during lent too, but not lent, but some kind of christmas fast, she said: i wanted to fast, i deprived myself of coffee, somehow she couldn’t immediately, maybe give up something more difficult for her, but she decided to take small steps, she says, i didn’t drink coffee the whole post, well, somehow , that is, this is a question. that
11:05 am
fasting does not imply any sins more severe than what already exists, than what already exists in gray life, but this suggests taking a closer look. peering into oneself and somehow, well , a person’s desire, well, to come to easter, to settle down spiritually, and physically, so when you look closely at yourself, you see these little things that you once know, like there is light in a room and these are visible specks of dust, yes, yes, uh-huh, so you see them, i read somewhere a story that it happens that a hermit comes, he lives alone in some desert, he repents for an hour, he has some kind of internal sins , and when it comes, it happens that on confession, so you come, and honestly, somehow you don’t even notice, a week has passed, we go to confession once a week, and somehow it flew by, and somehow, of course, you just, and fasting this is just the time when
11:06 am
you can attend divine services more calmly, somehow give up some types of products, limit yourself in something, well, in order to go to easter, christ will rise. mother olga, what instructions would you give to those newcomers who decided to fast for the first time this year? well, first of all with reasoning, knowing your limits and somehow, if you don’t rush forward, consult with a priest, with a confessor, just somehow, perhaps, give up a little this year so that you can get more next year. let's listen to what your confessor, the archpriest, said to the sisterhood on the eve of lent. or little bag, let's try to listen to the silence, we really miss it around us, and i would like it to be quieter inside, more attentive
11:07 am
to people, we must understand that there is black, there is white and... there is no need to mix it, it will turn out gray, we need white, there are two parts inside and black and white inside, two people live inside, you understand, and how important a kind word, a pure thought is, after all, you understand looking at things from the sunny side, you agree with father andrei, all these words are very consonant with me, because it’s just inner silence, it’s often lacking, somehow i know, i
11:08 am
came to the monastery now on august 5 2008, that is , in fact, already 15 years in the monastery and only now i’m starting to notice how little by little this silence is entering me. what is silence? silence may be stagnant water, but this is not the same silence, that’s when silence is , well, it’s intense, it’s like you ’re striving, well, to hear some word or prayer, or to somehow get closer to god, to hear god behind this bustle there is a completely different silence, it’s full of life, i think it’s this silence that the priest is talking about, that’s the most interesting thing, when i got this silence...
11:09 am
11:10 am
i didn’t get enough sleep or something, but in this case it seems to me that it’s very important not to let this spill out, that is, you keep it inside yourself, i’m just learning this silence, but our monastery is like an anthill, we have a lot of everyone, this is my obedience, it involves a lot of contacts with people , yeah, and the fact that i, let’s say, is my main occupation, is me, working, working on the monastery website, there too all the time, i take... to sit down, i communicate with various people, somehow i try to do all this, but i’m trying, to
11:11 am
be honest, to keep the prayer, here are the rosary, they are given at the time of tonsure, for each of these bead, you say a prayer, you may not take the book, you may simply not have time to take it, but god, have mercy , pray for this person who came or whom you are interviewing, or who is asking you something annoyingly. it turned out that one was cheerful, joyful, as it were, the second was sad, pale from
11:12 am
fasting, well, not that sad, but as if in such a repentant mood, they were surprised why there was such a difference between them, one said, i was happy, because i felt how the lord forgave my sin, the second one said, i i cried because i had not forgiven myself, and the elders said that their repentance was equivalent, that is, it does not exclude one from the other, people go to... everyone has their own, well, talent given by god, someone somehow... then he devotes all his strength to obedience, someone somehow prays more, someone somehow does something else , works of mercy, well, no matter how i separate one from the other, it’s just somehow a brighter feature in service , we are all one body, well, it’s as if we are a single organism and
11:13 am
therefore like members of the body, each in its own way fulfills its function, so this is it, that is, someone may fast more, someone may pray more, someone may give up coffee, but it’s all somehow put together and it turns out something... something whole, somehow so beautiful and well, every person can set themselves... the task of trying it somehow, everyone chooses for themselves, but it turns out, but there is some special prayer during fasting, of course, we pray different prayers in the monastery, but there is such a prayer that is considered only during the days of lent, as far as i know, perhaps during the nativity fast, but i’m not sure, but we hear it very often in services, this is the prayer of such a saint ephraim the syrian, lord, master of my belly, the spirit of idleness, lust for power, idle talk, do not give away. may you grant me chastity, humility, patience and love to
11:14 am
your servant. to her, lord, king, grant me to see my sin and do not condemn my brother. here is this prayer, there is a poem by pushkin: the fathers of the hermit and his wife are blameless. it was written under the influence of this devotional. interesting fact, here i am i read that he somehow played with this prayer in this one. poem, well, it is constantly read, and that is, in fact, what we ask, we ask the lord to give patience, chastity, purity, uh, to think humbly about oneself, and most importantly, to look into oneself, one’s sins, and not brother, do not judge, again rely not only on the lord, but also make efforts yourself, of course, god gives his grace, god gives help, but we must somehow try a little too. to get close to easter, but we will try, tatyana, let's learn this prayer, maybe it will work in
11:15 am
our ministry, i think if you say, lord, have mercy, or try to pray for the person with whom you are communicating, it will reach god, just do it sincerely, every, every prayer works, in modern language, if it is from the heart of a pure heart, we even have cases when people who are completely desperate come to our hospital nearby, they immediately... something to order, we say: here is the icon of the mother of god, here is the lord, go and ask for of a pure heart, mother be the mother of god, help my child there, or something else, it’s simple, they say:
11:16 am
fasting is such a tribute to fashion, that is , accordingly, on their table during fasting, well, food from the category there, so that we that’s how everyone lived, there were exotic fruits, nuts, some exotic seafood, when fish was allowed, for example, but this is also wrong, because fasting is such abstinence, and the food should be simple, but this is already such a surplus, excesses in general food is secondary, the main thing is as one... not to eat people, that is, if we place a bunch of products on the tables or even refuse these products, but inside we will not remain evil, we will condemn, the first task of fasting is to cleanse the soul of a person, why is all this asceticism, why are all these restrictions, so that look into ourselves to force ourselves,
11:17 am
and god, seeing our efforts, seeing our efforts, somehow like this, he gives us his grace, we get closer to god, but if we eat some kind of squid or don’t eat anything at all during this time, you’re doing bad things, because the main thing is to cleanse the inside, this is in the gospel, it is written, first of all, cleanse the inside, the bottles of the cup, and then look at the outside, there was one hermit, he was very angry, he was angry, in general he... went into the desert and there he sat, sat, sat, because this jug was placed incorrectly for him, and he took it in a fit of anger and broke this jug, that is, he realized that even in the desert without people, this is what he brought with him, she remained , and then he understood this lesson, god showed him that
11:18 am
he must begin to cleanse the inside, this somehow tame the passion of anger, and then everything else, but before... we have services from 4 am to 12 pm, usually the monastery begins to sound a tone higher, i would say so, that is, this is the opportunity somehow get ready, plus, taking into account obedience, worship and the prayer that you must read kileina, that is, your
11:19 am
personal rule, there is not much time left, but we read the classics with pleasure, yes, but there is a way out, even when.. fiction is prohibited, there are special collections, lent in works. russian writers, which include stories by bunin, dostoevsky, chekhov, tolstoy and other authors, one way or another, dedicated to this period of lent, they can be classified as spiritual literature, i think, yes, for me this is orthodox literature, because these people once they wrote, they were very beautiful and somehow perhaps in a more accessible form than... some of these, well, spiritual books for a simple layman described this period, there are very beautiful works, indeed in these works there is educational component, educational, and of course spiritual, and these collections are published with the approval of the church, well, the style in them is very beautiful, for example, the writer vasily nikiforov volgin,
11:20 am
i walk through the market, it smells of lent, retka, cabbage, cucumbers, dried mushrooms, they don’t run around to buy hundreds of dollars and speak to customers quietly and delicately, from the frost there is blue smoke hanging over the market, i saw a willow twig in the hand of a passing boy, and my heart was filled with chilly joy, spring is coming, easter is coming, only little hands will remain from the frost, you read these words and seem to hear this ringing somewhere in the distance. i agree, and the fact that he lists the products, they are all on ours, well, they are simple, they are very simple, this is simple russian belarusian food, yes, this is what we usually eat... we eat, that is, some kind of porridge , potatoes, cucumbers, all sorts of pickles, here’s cabbage, we eat fish only twice during lent, well, there are 2 days in which it is allowed, sure
11:21 am
sunday, well, you’re already an experienced person, let’s say, well, it’s difficult for you during post too, admit it, you know, every post - this is somehow perceived in a special way, here you are on forgiveness sunday, you enter into it, somehow, well... “you ask god for help, because fasting is not only a time of some kind of limitation in oneself, but this is a time of some kind , well , for me personally, temptations, somehow it all gets worse, so even with experience, all these great fasts, they went through very differently for me, sometimes this is somehow the most difficult, so i was, i remember, i was in my opinion, the third great lent monastery." third year, oh, somehow they gave us a lot of buckwheat, honestly i admit, i didn’t like buckwheat then, but somehow i ate it, but somehow it was
11:22 am
difficult, somehow spiritually it is perceived very differently, so you can’t say that with experience, what not with experience, if there is god’s help, well, of course, you become stronger, even just spiritually and physically, the services are easier, these are long, they are actually... quite monotonous, that is, there are no chants, some that, that we, well, perhaps, are in the twilight, the reader is reading, uh, in an even voice , kathismas, hours, canon, but at least you you understand the service, i understand where it is, what it’s following, and more, well, the mind, it’s used to the service, it doesn’t run away, it flows in, here’s your prayer, it’s like a trickle. he spits into this common prayer, then it’s easier, then it’s something like this, but for some reason it doesn’t always happen, uh, this is how it turns out, but
11:23 am
in general, yes, in general, over time, somehow an understanding comes, somehow and what - this is an experience where you can force yourself, and where, on the contrary, you can somehow loosen the bowstring, well, just like that, but all great lents are very different live, to be honest. well, returning to the works of russian writers, i remember the following lines that i read from someone, that at that time even life slowed down, we cannot slow down, but we will take a short break, for now you can subscribe to our telegram channel, it’s called tell me not be silent, invite us to guests, ask questions, we are in touch.
11:24 am
we tell you how to choose quality products for healthy dishes. take the nuts in your hands and estimate their weight. don’t take ones that are too light; such fruits have no kernels at all, or they are dried out. ground beef is dark red in color and has a pleasant, milky aroma. a proper breakfast is the key to health and good mood. today we will cook lasagna with pumpkin and spinach. quite unusual, but i think sometimes you can treat yourself. let's get started. if you have a busy day ahead and you know you need a lot of energy, this is the breakfast that will do the trick. don't forget about invigorating exercises. we raise our hands up.
11:25 am
11:26 am
on tv channel belarus 24 the “say don’t be silent” program is on air again and today our guest is inna kinya, saint olga the great of the elisabeth monastery. mother olga, we haven’t seen you for 3 years, what are you up to today? obedience, well , that means my main task is to work on the monastery website, that is, in a sense, i am your colleague, we have a website, it is sort of divided into two large departments: the site editor, work with texts and video departments, i i’m working with texts, that is, in fact, i’m running a column about how i came to the monastery, yeah, i’m interviewing monastic sisters, monastic sisters, and
11:27 am
then i process them. this and somehow, well, it turns out to be such a sister’s story, well, how did she come, because sisters come along very different paths, each has their own story, some have something in common after all, a common call of god that was heard , the sister, no matter where she was, whether she was in a pious family from the beginning, or she, one might say, didn’t lead a very churchly life, but if she heard in her heart. under god's basin, nothing will hinder her, neither sins nor parents, not some kind of career, there is such a remark that people do not come to the monastery bound by obligations, that is, married, with small children, but somehow with elderly parents who need to be considered, that is, if you are already going to the monastery , you have to be honest with yourself, but with people, somehow close
11:28 am
all your... even some moral obligations, well, then start this path, and if there are children or elderly parents, then there is a person can't come, no, a person can, only the simple question is that, well, small children, if a wife, let’s say, raises children alone without a husband, well, where will she leave them, well, yes, well, how would it be, that is, she should be honest about it, suddenly she has an impulse yes, that is, she has an impulse. somehow it controls everything, but i will say, well, as if despite the obstacles and god , we had cases when women came to the monastery and then it turned out that they had small children, for example, who needed to be raised, then just already or somehow
11:29 am
well we have.
11:30 am
if the sister is happy, if it’s somehow successful, because what sounds, is spoken out loud, then in written form, it is perceived a little differently, then i think that, well, yes, it turned out to be obedience, i always pray, and before choosing a sister for an interview, before talking to her, um, usually the conversation goes on, i sort of treat her to tea, like here, and we just talk, sister... when she shares, she tells something , some of her experiences, what she had there, this, and i record it on a tape recorder and then just so, well, let’s say she can say that i’m telling you this now, but please don’t publish it anywhere, yes, well, i’m immediately warning you to sit down, that everything that is posted on the site is all with their knowledge , that is, they get acquainted with this material before the material, yes, of course, without the sister being in charge, were there any cases when, well, someone was
11:31 am
dissatisfied? somehow god speaks privately to every heart, every person, he is an individual, this is what surprises me most of all, they just happen such circumstances, it would seem that well , this is a sister, well, no way, well, somehow this is how everything is managed, somehow this is how circumstances develop, because when a person is a monastery , it is a special space. i am this place of meeting with god, if we say that god lives in any church, then in a monastery, where people pray, where people are gathered, this is such an attempt to build the kingdom of god and you really see this providence of god, the action of god, like god collects these sisters, they
11:32 am
are different, young, older, elderly, here we have the oldest nun is 86 years old, she is a candidate of medical sciences, master of sports in gymnastics, nun maria, yeah. she has her own story, she came to the monastery like this, let’s say a young sister who just became a nun, of course it will be different for her, but one way or another you can see something in common in this, i think that this the call of god, which was heard, time-tested, and somehow this is not just a fleeting impulse, which a man saw this beauty, well, building monastics, this is even vestments, this is, but... this is work, yeah, this is a deliberate, well, yes, this is a deliberate decision, and the most important thing is that a person must make this decision himself, we had one sister who even let me out, the monastery was called by obedience,
11:33 am
that is she came to the monastery for obedience to the confessor, well, just like that, but in fact, when you come on your own, you are responsible for this, for this choice, yeah, i think this is important, because monastic life is not just, it the struggle is the front line, even to endure this post, the service you must attend limitation in the form of, well , let’s say, we don’t watch tv, the internet is a blessing, especially there, well, as it were, if you just don’t set yourself up for a life of prayer like this, you’ll just have, well, somehow it’s uncomfortable, if a person tests himself, like this...
11:34 am
big, big, these are the white sisters, and those people who come to the first post, and the brothers in the courtyard, women who suffer from alcoholism in the women’s courtyard, those people these are the people who come here with
11:35 am
exhibitions, who buy something from us, they somehow become involved in our lives, that’s why the site is like this, we strive in the site to reflect ours, as if i’m sure that those people who work in our ceramic workshop, i’m just this is also a piece of warmth, because i know they come to work, for them it’s not
11:36 am
just my work, it’s not work, it’s first of all obedience, obedience to hear, you hear the voice of god, the voice of the sisters, neighbors who are nearby, you participate in the liturgical... life of the monastery, in church life, it somehow turns out that you the whole life, well, it’s kind of involved in this spiritual life, one might say, this is physical.
11:37 am
this is very interesting, but somehow i like my obedience, it gives me a lot, firstly, i look at materials about monasticism, the history of monasticism, i look at some other monasteries, and secondly , communication with sisters, it’s very enriching and somehow develops and somehow, well, you learn a lot of interesting things in general, yeah, well, some of your opinions, they change, you somehow... go deeper, i can say that one thing is that the monastery, when i went to
11:38 am
the monastery, i was, frankly, a little scared if i plunged into the past like that, because i imagined it as something very gloomy, dull, i was just an unchurched person, it even happens that an unchurched man went to a monastery, and these black clothes, somehow it suits me... so i think, now they will imprison me in some kind of dungeon, and i will be behind bars, that’s all, and i will pray, but it turned out that it is full of life, somehow it is so alive, well, that is, it is impossible to say that this is bad or good, worse or better than social life, it’s just different, it’s different, it follows different laws, but fortunately i was deeply mistaken, when these thoughts gradually dissipated, i saw people smiling, who can... cry, who can even quarrel,
11:39 am
who can, they are living people, these are their stories that i write, this is the history of living people, yes, there are some sins, there are some mistakes on the path of life , some here, but it’s alive, it’s in the palm of your hand trembling, like a sister’s heart, here she is telling you, and you can see that she is worried, she herself once even told me that after they gave this interview, they again, as it were... well, they looked at it in a new way, that’s how it went for a period of time, after they came to the monastery, became novices, nuns, for them something new also opened up some kind of frontier, i’m very grateful , that’s how and to god and confessor father andrey, when i went to valaam before the monastery, my most vivid feeling was why i when i came to the monastery, this feeling was that god was alive. that he is very close to us, that he
11:40 am
is not some kind of person, so i kept trying to comprehend him with my mind, like buddhism, an abstraction, some kind of eternal absolute, and i am this reflection, this living thing, not a letter, but a spirit, i found in our monastery something like this, this closeness, you can be wrong, you can, i had years, i’ve been in the monastery for 15 years, i had very difficult years. when i didn’t regret that i came to the monastery, but it was just hard, somehow, because a lot had to be changed, as i said, i was an unchurched person, i needed all this, but how long did this period of purification last, well, how can i say, it was not such a one-time thing, for example, this is the first thing when you come to the monastery , everything is on fire for you, everything works out, everything somehow holds on to this grace, and then god moves away a little. uh-huh, to test the will of a person, now work on your braids, let
11:41 am
the little one step with your feet, well, remember, you told us at our first meeting that at first they gave you a black skirt, a black blouse, then you had obedience, when you washed your little corridor, toilet, i remember your words, you didn’t really like it somewhere, but then you looked at this obedience with on the other hand, now i’m washing the stairs, among other things, absolutely calmly, that is. but something like this, well, it’s necessary, then it’s necessary, it’s necessary, then it’s necessary, well, look, in addition to filling the site and interviewing sisters, do you use it to communicate with believers? countries new media, there is telegram, tiktok, that is, this is not demonism, no, i don’t think that this is demonism, there is just such a saying, there is such a book, the monastic ladder, it is the alphabet for monastics, but it was written a very long time ago, someone from the fathers or pastors of the church said, i no longer remember that if byan lestovich lived in our
11:42 am
time, he would have written differently, i mean , you have to be a little bit better, we live in such conditions. we need to somehow accept these conditions, that’s why we have a telegram channel, a full-fledged one, where we publish some interesting materials, photos, videos from services, tiktok there is no channel as such, there are separate fragments of the priest’s conversations, sermons, then we use it, interest is growing, the audience has a growing interest in all these resources, well, yes, i specifically looked at the numbers, so... in 2022 we have new ones users, but this is considered video materials, that is, the entire site, not only texts, but also some video materials, we had about, in my opinion, 2.0, that is, now up to 10 thousand every day, very good, tell me, in what day is better to come to the
11:43 am
monastery, well, maybe with a tour or see temples on a weekday or on a weekend, oh, we will always welcome you, come, we have fewer people on weekdays, of course, weekends are more crowded, but in any case, i think you will leave, you are comforted, warmed and with good impressions. mother, olga, you asked not to ask you questions about politics, they said that you don’t understand it, well, we’ll ask about people, this is the twentieth year, it did a lot of things in our society, today people have calmed down after these events, in your opinion sight? well, it’s hard for me to say, because even though we the monastery is so open to the world, and we, so to speak, use all these modern technologies, but i can’t, well, trace it, neither a sociologist, nor a political scientist, that is , somehow i can’t objectively evaluate this picture in society , i can hope
11:44 am
and pray, at every service we offer prayers for peace, for... well, in our society there will be, well, well-being, well-being, we pray for the authorities for the people, that is, this is what i can do it, my contribution, even here is the site, the task is traditional values, this is faith, this family, this is some kind of unity of the people, this is some kind of well... churchliness, perhaps, somehow like this, this is all, so we are trying to convey to people, people, so i think that this is our prayer, the word of our confessor, what we publish, it somehow helps with this, well, look at the situation, the word helps, well, again, returning to andrey lemishonok, when he was
11:45 am
visiting us , he said that in his family, the confessor in the twentieth year, there were also disagreements and schism. we can show a small fragment of this video, when these unrest began, there was also some small division, you know, family yes, and then all this, well, probably thanks to my daughter, she said no, because there was a different understanding, you know, artists, these are the creative intelligentsia, they are all free, you see, maybe this is good, that people should not be the same, you know, but we just need to develop those qualities that are inherent in a person, you know, we need to develop, not we have to fight. you see, you need to see what you can you do. god frames it all. if this is with god, you see, every person, as you know, takes a blank, lord, and from this blank he grinds, grinds, something like that and a wonderful work comes out. we have such painful moments - before divorces, people, you know, everything, one is like this, the other is like that, like in ukraine, too,
11:46 am
you know, one, one for one side, the other for the other. well, this is a revelation, did you know about this when all this was happening? yes, then the monastery had enough of this, well, let ’s say, incentive to prayer, it was a difficult time, these are the unrest of the pandemic, we tried somehow , both with prayer and somehow, how we can help, these are the times to unite, so that we can all somehow overcome these difficulties, now we will take a short break, after after a short pause , we’ll return to this studio again, sign.
11:47 am
they absorb knowledge with an enviable appetite. is it true that in developed countries the male population predominates over the female population? the female population predominates there because men have a higher mortality rate in childhood. what do you think caused this? various factors, when i was a child, my dad threw me into the river, and then they brilliantly answer the host’s questions. does anyone know why september is called september? not because it’s the seventh month, no, nikita, great, it’s the seventh month, september is simply called a serial number, relatively speaking, even the adults are delighted with the erudition of these guys, and why the population, it seems to me, cannot be included in top ten countries in the world, sonya answered correctly, she’s smart, she has very well developed logical thinking, and even if she doesn’t know something, she can get to
11:48 am
the correct answer, a precedent, and a precedent is some kind of case, incident, i’m very glad that yulia answered correctly, this is exactly the word we studied with her in preparation for the olympiad and so it’s great that it coincided, watch the intellectual and entertaining project, i know on the belarus 24 tv channel. we will talk about the diversity of belarusian cuisine. the recipe for this cheesecake was found in the book of radivilovsky recipes, translated from polish to our employees, now we we can use it to treat everyone who wants this cheesecake. according to the guest, the cutlet is not fresh, it is not a cutlet at all, it is equated to fried meat, all because it is made from rubles. pork, let's plunge into festive culinary traditions, and , of course, we bake easter cake, only here, in this area, it is not called easter cake, if in
11:49 am

11:50 am
, if i say so, i experienced it, to be honest, on valaam and after fasting, yeah, it’s something similar when you feel the closeness of god, that’s when they comprehend you, we , other monks, spend one night and three nights in the temple, we practically don’t go out anywhere, in vestments, that night, you can say that i... was happy, because god, he kind of hugs you, well, it’s hard to describe, it’s simple, well, in general, it’s simple, because there is god, and there is you, and between you these are these components, this is the grace of god, just god, so he gives you this so, well, what do you feel in these moments, when you think you are happy, it’s some kind of light, it’s warm, that’s what’s happening, well , there are no voices or phenomena, of course, but... there’s just a feeling of the living god, i would characterize it this way, that sometimes you

move away from him due to sins, but when you’re looking, here it’s like a wound in the soul, it’s so interesting, here’s happiness and a wound, but here it is: when something hurts you, you constantly return to it, so here, if you ’ve tasted this, here’s the feeling when god is near, god close, you are in his love, you can say, that's... then you remember it, when you lose it, it's very well in this the very struggle of fasting and everything else, to feel this, well, for me personally, to get closer to god, something like this, then actually your answer to the question of who or what makes you happy is actually god, yes, you just know, it turns out that when i went to the monastery, all these values ​​that i lived by... before that, some kind of career, i was writing a paper, some, well, meetings with friends,
11:52 am
it depreciated, this is it ... what god gave, then, uh-huh, this push, impulse, which, after all, then, the following the years were very difficult for me, this is probably the most difficult time during the time when i was in church, but it was this memory of this god’s love, this presence of god in your life, that helped you withstand it, well when there were these difficult years, did you really never have any regrets that you chose this... path, that you took monastic vows, that you could not return to secular life, that you could not start a family, give birth to children, you were then a young girl, never, never regretted, you know, i had a good one, so let's say, hardening, because these years i went to valaam in 2005, came to the monastery in 2008, during these 3 years all these
11:53 am
regrets, well, i was just very... painful myself, well, a separation from the world, yeah , it simply burned out, and it burned out like that, well, it burned out well, that was very painful, because like all girls, i really was, well, 15 years ago, how old i was, 25 years, probably, i don’t know , i wanted a family, i had an interesting job, interesting activities in life, friends, well, this or that maybe... to say that by meat standards i was happy, yes, i thought that i was happy, but when this struggle, which began later after i arrived, it burned out, to be honest, over these years there were not regret, it was just, well, when god, so to speak, takes away your grace, you just have this very

heavy feeling inside, but it is not associated with the desire to quit everything, that is , in fact, this period of uncertainty, which is more i was tormented by everything, i lived in the world, then, now, how is your relationship? line up with your relatives, because let’s say, not all of your loved ones and relatives accepted your choice unambiguously, it was difficult for my relatives, because we had a good family, we somehow trusted each other, and my parents tried to understand me, and my sister , now... well , now it’s easier, time heals everything, well, you maintain relationships with them, meet, yes , i have a blessing, we somehow all go together, both me and them, and uh, i have a blessing to meet with my relatives, they live nearby, they come to see me, they visit, yeah, so, dad should come, well, somehow there’s such
