Piekarska, Magdalena2025-07-162025-07-162012Teologia w Polsce, 2012, Tom 6, nr 1, s. 155-176.1732-45722956-6355https://theo-logos.pl/handle/123456789/33729This paper shows personal prayer as a way to theosis formulated by Kallistos Ware. It is also an attempt to show the role of a body in a prayer. Orthodox Church, being strongly influenced by Fathers Tradition, teaches that hesychia is a state of peace for a person who prays short formula ‘Jesus Christ, the Son of God, have mercy on me’. The prayer that is of a mouth at first, becomes through a prayer of intellect to a prayer of a heart, that is a constant being in front of God. Prayer of a heart makes a man the prayer. Becoming a prayer assumes participation of a body. Jesus revealed His divinity in the body. Hesychia is then a prayer of a holy person and has its result in unification. A person who does not sleep but prays through the light of Tabor makes his nature better. Theosis is final unification.plCC-BY - Uznanie autorstwatradycja prawosławna modlitwy Jezusowejtradycjatradycja prawosławnamodlitwamodlitwa osobistaprzebóstwienieKallistos Waremetropoliciprawosławniprawosławiemonastycyzmmodlitwa hezychastycznahezychiapustyniaizolacjazewnętrzny aspekt izolacjiwewnętrzny aspekt izolacjichrześcijaństwoascezaojcowie pustyniprawosławna teologia przebóstwieniateologia przebóstwieniaojcowie Kościołatradycja hezychastycznaJezus ChrystusGóra TaborchrystologiateologiaciałohezychaściPrzemienienie na Górze TaborDuch Świętymodlitwa Jezusarelacja modlitwa-przebóstwienieenergie boskietheosisOrthodox tradition of the Jesus’ prayertraditionOrthodox traditionprayerpersonal prayerdivinizationmetropolitan bishopsRussian OrthodoxesEastern Orthodoxymonasticismhesychastic prayerhesychiadesertisolationexternal aspect of isolationinternal aspect of isolationChristianityasceticismDesert FathersOrthodox theology of divinizationtheology of divinizationChurch Fathershesychastic traditionJesus ChristMount TaborChristologytheologybodyhesychistsTransfiguration on Mount TaborHoly SpiritJesus’ prayerprayer-divinization relationshipDivine energiesArticle
