Eghersis
is a transliteration of the Greek word, εγερσις, which has the meaning of being roused to life. Thus, it is my hope that what you find on this blog will empower, arouse, stimulate, excite, and animate your life--your soul, your spirit--the wholeness of who you are.

Pure Prayer Fears No Evil


Evagrius Ponticus inspired this altered book spread.

"Crashing sounds and roars and voices and beatings--all of these, coming from the devil--are heard by the man who pursues the practice of pure prayer. Yet he does not lose courage nor his presence of mind. He calls out to God: 'I shall fear no evils for you are with me.' "

Evagrius Ponticus from An Anthology of Christian Mysticism.
