Archimandrite Glykerios
Translated from the Greek by Archbishop Chrysostomos of Etna

“[...T]he purpose and meaning of life are to unite ourselves to God, to take part in the eternal and blessed life of the Holy Trinity. What, however, comprises this life of the Holy Spirit? According to the revelation received by the God-bearing Apostles and Fathers of the Church, in the Three Persons of the Holy Trinity all things exist in common: a common Essence, a common Power, a common Energy, a common Will, a common Divinity, and a common Life. That is, the Holy Trinity constitutes a perfect, eternal, and blessed κοινόβιον.”
