05.27.24, Mon 8 OT, Mk 10:17-27: “Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” Since the dawn of monastic life, that was the question posed by a disciple to his master: “Master, what must I do to be saved?”
Abba Poemen said to Abba Joseph, “ Tell me how to become a monk.” He said, “If you want to find rest here below, and hereafter, in all circumstances say, ‘Who am I?’ and do not judge anyone.”
