Ascetic Experiences, vol. I
Аскетические опыты. Том I

The first volume of his works, gathered at Babayevo with the publisher Ivan Glazunov: fifty-seven pieces written over thirty years, from the prose poems of his youth ('The Garden in Winter', 'The Tree in Winter before the Cell Window', 'Thought on the Seashore') to the treatises on reading the Gospel and the Fathers, avoiding heterodox books, love of God and neighbour, fasting, prayer, the eight passions and their opposite virtues, tears, humility, patience, monasticism and the Gospel commandments. It includes the three sections 'On the Jesus Prayer' (with the one on spiritual delusion), the 'Rule of Attention to Oneself for Those Living in the World', 'The Cup of Christ' and 'My Lament'. It is the book through which most Russian readers have come to know Ignatius.
