Spiritual experience at Konstamonitou Monastery

Agathon broke up my confession at his grave, father Spyridon said:

Tomorrow night in church.

There after confession we talked for a long time.

These were Father Agathon's last words he said.

I asked Father Spyridon to repeat, I heard but cannot remember.

In his last days he was at another level, Spyridon uttered unintelligible sounds, I sat next to him at the stasidi silent.

We got to get some sleep Father Spyridon said and stood up to leave.

Patera Spyridon, you did not give me your blessing.

The blessing, he said, rushed into the sanctuary, and came out wearing the petrahili.

On your knees he said.

He covered me with his petrahili, mumbled the blessing and I was not.

Holly communion later he said, later.

Escaping from Konstamonitou is not possible.
