The Manual For Spiritual Renewal
The passions are spiritual viruses of the soul—Saint Cassian
provides the course of therapy for the divine cure.
Beyond simply depicting the way of life adopted by the
illustrious elders of the desert, Saint John Cassian systematically presents
the order of combat against the leading passions—spiritual diseases dragging
the soul to every sin and eventually into Gehenna. The remedy: unremitting
noetic prayer and watchfulness. For as Saint John describes, “It is not an
external enemy we dread. Our foe is shut up within ourselves. An internal warfare
is daily waged by us.” The Institutes, therefore, is a manual of
transformation renewing the soul in God.
