Medicina isihasta
Mareste imaginea. Medicina isihasta, fiind o medicina de orientare direct crestina, incepe intotdeauna cu specificul crestin, cu rugaciunea. Cel mai adesea, medicina isihasta este pusa in legatura cu parintele Ghelasie Gheorghe de la Manastirea Frasinei, care vorbea multora despre aceasta. Cuvintele parintelui isihast Ghelasie privind medicina isihasta au fost adunate intr-o carte, editata in mai multe randuri, dupa cum urmeaza: "Medicina isihasta" (Editura Axis Mundi, 1992, 158 pagini), "Medicina isihasta" (Editura Platytera, 2008, 342 pagini) si "Taina hranei. Retetele medicinii isihaste" (Editura Platytera, 2011, 280 pagini). Desi limbajul folosit de medicina isihasta poate fi uneori greu accesibil, din pricina caderii limbajului nostru actual, el este de o coerenta impecabila: "Hristos a Luat Pacatele Lumii ca se le Curateasca. Eu Vreau sa Fiu un Urmator al Lui Hristos, vreau sa Fiu un Asemanator Hristic. Ca Asemanator Hristic, Eu Sunt o Viata si un Destin Sacru, care Merita cu Adevarat sa Traiasca. In Acest Destin Sacru am Datoria sa Vindec Bolile Mele, care sunt Mostenire de la Parintii mei, prin care apoi voi Mantui si pe Parintii mei. In
Mine Parintii mei sunt Bolnavi si Suferinzi si in Mine Parintii mei ma Roaga sa le Vindec Bolile si Suferintele. Prin aceasta Vindecare din Iubire fata de ei, totodata ma Vindec pe mine, cel ce am Esenta lor ca Fiinta a mea." (Avva Ghelasie de la Frasinei, "Medicina isihasta") Medicina isihasta Pentru a intelege cu adevarat ce este medicina isihasta, se cade a citi cu intelegere cartile parintelui Ghelasie, iar nu a ne forma pareri de mana a doua, straine de realitate. Din punct de vedere teoretic, medicina isihasta este foarte simpla, ea putand fi rezumata astfel: "Roaga-te lui Dumnezeu, cu mare credinta si iubire!" Deoarece consider ca parintele Ghelasie, ca unul ce a inteles si a trait tainele lui Dumnezeu, este cel mai in masura sa vorbeasca despre medicina isihasta, voi reda in continuare un cuvant elocvent al acestuia: "Neamule! Roaga-te la Dumnezeu, neincetat. Asta scrie Filocalia. Rugaciunea lui Iisus este medicamentul perfect pentru toate bolile timpului in care traim. Bolile noastre sunt de factura sufleteasca, in primul rand. Vine preotul sau calugarul, daca exista posibilitatea sa ai legatura directa cu un slujitor sarguincios al lui Dumnezeu, te spovedesti, este primul pas spre insanatosire!, apoi faci canonul pe care il primesti. Se numeste medicina isihasta. Isihasmul este cea mai directa metoda de linistire a sufletului. Asta si inseamnă in greceste. Linistire. Cum sa se faca omul bine de cauza profunda a bolilor sale... nimeni nu este bolnav doar de o singura boala, dar ele ies, pe rand, la suprafata, daca sufletul sau este tulburat. Ca sa fie intelese anumite profunzimi ale isihasmului, trebuie sa fie citite Filocaliile, Rugaciunea pelerinului rus si multe alte lucrari. Cine simte ca se trezeste ceva in sufletul sau, citind aceste randuri, sa mearga degraba la duhovnicul sau, iar daca nu are, sa-si caute unul, sa vorbeasca deschis despre durerile sale, care marea majoritate vin dintr-un suflet bolnav si sa caute. Sa caute si sa afle el, in mod direct, despre ce inseamna toate acestea. Pentru ca totul se reduce, in esenta, la rugaciunea lui Iisus. De acolo incepe urcusul." Medicina isihasta nu priveste atat trupul, cat sufletul, care imbolnaveste trupul. Chiar daca parintele Ghelasie nu manca decat seminte, nuci si paine pustniceasca (necoapta, ci doar uscata), el era constient de faptul ca nici postul, nici remediile naturiste, nici orice alt fel de tratament nu ne poate ajuta, atata timp cat ne lipseste iubirea de Dumnezeu, credinta si rugaciunea. Nu numai nevointele sunt importante, caci nu ele singure sunt cele care transforma omul, ci mai cu seama rugaciunea. Pentru aceasta, el spunea adesea: "Neamule, daca tii post fara rugaciune si fapte bune, nu faci altceva decat sa albesti osul. Dar sufletul tot trist si innegurat ramane." Medicina isihasta ca "dubla medicina" Potrivit medicinei isihaste, boala pentru care am fost pedepsiti cu alungarea din Eden este neatentia. Este suficient sa fim atenti la noi o zi intreaga, daca putem, pentru a pricepe cat de putin suntem atenti la noi insine si cat de mult stam cu mintea plecata, ori in trecut, ori in viitor.
Medicina isihasta este o "dubla medicina", a sufletului si a trupului, fiind cu adevarat o revenire la adevarata viata, care implica insanatosirea tuturor partilor noastre componente. Cuviosul Calist Catafygiotul, in scrierile sale filocalice, vorbeste despre modelul triadic al sufletului omenesc (minte, duh ratiune, energii). Deoarece boala este de fapt o ruptura a unitatii noastre trinitare, se cade ca tratarea sa se adreseze in pricipal refacerii acestei unitati. Pentru aceasta, medicina isihasta implica o terapeutica ortodoxa integrala, inteleasa si ca recuperare a limbajului adevarat al Tainei Vietii. Teodor Danalache
Saptamana Alba
Mareste imaginea. Incepand cu 28 februarie, ortodocsii intra in "Saptamana Alba sau a branzei". In aceasta saptamana nu se mai consuma carne, iar in zilele de miercuri si vineri se face dezlegare la oua, lapte, branza si peste. In calendarele bisericesti, pentru aceste zile apare mentiunea "harti", un termen popular care desemneaza zilele de dezlegare a postului. Miercuri, 2 martie, se rosteste pentru prima data in perioada Triodului, rugaciunea Sfantului Efrem Sirul - "Doamne si Stapanul vietii mele", rugaciune care inceteaza in miercurea din Saptamana Mare. http://www.crestinortodox.ro/liturgica/viata-liturgica/rugaciunea-sfantului-efrem-sirul70663.html In zilele de miercuri si vineri din "Saptamana Alba" nu se savarseste Sfanta Liturghie, cele doua zile sunt aliturgice. In Sambata lasatului sec de branza, Biserica ii pomeneste pe toti barbatii si femeile care au fost "luminati prin postire". Aceasta zi este numita "a ascetilor". Biserica ii aseaza ca modele, calauzitori pentru parcurgerea postului si a pocaintei: "Veniti toti credinciosii sa laudam cetele cuviosilor parinti: pe Antonie capetenia, pe luminatul Eftimie, pe fiecare deosebit si pe toti impreuna si vietile acestora ca un alt Rai al desfatarii cu gandul socotindu-le …". Duminica, 6 martie, exista randuiala de a se cere iertare. Este cunoscuta sub denumirea de "Duminica Iertarii". Asadar, prima incercare de iesi biruitori din lupta cu pacatul este iertarea, reintoarcerea la iubire. Este dureros ca aceasta slujba unica lipseste din multe
biserici. Faptul ca e intalnita mai mult in manastiri, denota despartirea noastra de duhul Bisericii. Aceste randuieli sunt trepte spre a deschide inima catre "o alta lume". Din cauza pacatului, omul a pierdut puterea de a pasi in mod natural catre Dumnezeu. Si prin aceste randuieli, Biserica ne poarta incet catre unirea cu Dumnezeu. Mai sunt cateva zile pana la intrarea in Postul Sfintelor Pasti. Sa nu ne abatem de la el. Acest post este ajutorul pe care ni-l daruieste Biserica spre a pune capat "celor vechi" si a intra intru "cele noi". Indiferent cat de grele sunt conditiile in care traim si cat de mari sunt obstacolele ridicate de cei din jurul nostru, nimic nu trebuie sa ne opreasca din a lua in serios Postului Sfintelor Pasti. 65. We should feel that our real life is always connected to God. 66. Food influences all aspects of a person.
