ICON ICON IS NOT A TABLE IN ANY

The All-Holy, Retail FIN13 °-début14 ° S.
Mount Athos, Greece

If you lived with her and if you prayed before an icon, you know that it is truly a place of presence . You know she introduces us freely in the encounter with the person who is represented. You know that without knowing how you know. There is a threshold beyond which any question is futile and fruitless discourse. Also do you need to understand it otherwise than by living and praying.

(...) This reality is not immediately noticeable. It takes a long time. Everything is said with so much sweetness. With great sobriety too, which is lack of focus and sentimentalism.

Let yourself meet, greet with the icon.

We are not competent in life. Perhaps even very incompetent. It is when we know that we are ready to be seen rather than watching. To listen rather than talk. A humble ourselves rather than knowing and judging. You told me about a day of sadness in the eyes of the Mother of God. Do not you know that the icons, all saints weep with joy? Tears of repentance and joy of Hi. Contemplate this long face and this look is in thee, and carry it on people and things throughout your path.

Presentation of Jesus in the Temple,
by Andrei Rublev, St. Petersburg

The homeland of the icon is East. This true "visual theology" was born at the time of Justinian (6th century). And it is the 11th century that began in Russian iconography. With unspeakable sweetness this sacred art in God assumes the human sense. Above sensation and perception is the sphere of revelation and the seizure of the invisible . The sense of mystery is never given directly, but it is represented through intermediaries: an angel, a symbol, an icon, an all messengers secret message.

sign, allegory, symbol

The sign information and intelligence. These are the chemical formulas, billboards, shop signs, the content is basic and devoid of any presence.

Similarly an allegory is an explanation by analogy and barely exceeds the didactic illustration.

By cons, symbol, in the spirit of the Church Fathers and by liturgical tradition, contains within it the presence of what it symbolizes. And this "presence" is revealed in contemplation, by which the imagination decrypts the message of the true symbol and captures the real presence as an epiphany.

According to Paul Evdokimov, an Orthodox theologian,
