Metropolitan Anthony (Pakanich) about the hidden sensation of the Holy Dormition Holy Mother of God.

It is celebrated sacredly on that very day - 28 sickles. Shards of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary fall in 2017 on Mondays, then, according to the Statute Orthodox Church, the whole day I don’t write. It is allowed to eat, be it as it is.

Zaboroni

Іsnuє impersonal zabobonіv and folk zvichaїv, tied with Dormitions. Many of them "fence" people to take care of the greatest home rights. The nasty horror stories that have taken root, bring confusion into the minds of Orthodox people, like walking to the temple like rocks.

All day long, nothing is seen in other days, for the sake of the fact that we are especially blessed with the Most Holy Theotokos, we glorify the Dormition.

“Overcoming the laws of nature in You, the Virgin of the Pure, the nation is saved virginity, and life is lost in death: after the birth of the Virgin and after the death of the Living, You save for ever, Mother of God, Thy scum,” sings at the troparion of the holy.

Golovne, scho can be blamed for the strength of the skin of the believer - the ability to overcome life over death, good over evil, believe over the nevir'yam. The Holy Church itself should speak to its children for the help of the holy service.

The image of the Dormition of the Most Holy Theotokos is the quintessence of earthly life, the special features of the Great Day ... The turning to God.

Having created different miracles, the Lord has shown what a marvelous thing is for a person - turning to God, deifying, to that our right fatherland is Heaven, and not Timchas's earth.

In early Christian writings, it is affirmed: “The immortal soul lives with a mortal dweller - and Christians perebuvayut midst of the world of perishable, looking for heavenly imperishability.”

The earthly life is given to people as a sleep in front of the entrance to Vіchnіst. And in addition, as a person prepares to sleep, to lie down for an immortal life.

Metropolitan Anthony Sorozky, having said that the main criterion for the rest of the Last Judgment, which is the skin of a person in front of the entrance to Vichnist, will be no more than a kohannya. People don’t ask, after reading prayers, after reading prayers, after fasting, after bowing. From the skin we will be nourished, we helped our neighbor, we infuriated the hungry, we clothed the naked, even if we showed our love to our neighbors and to such a world in our lives, God himself will greet His love to us. . And even though we didn’t have love in us, unfortunately, we can’t bring love into God and change into it.

The Holy Dormition of the Most Holy Lady of Our Mother of God and Everlasting Mary, being in essence a saint of majestic joy, the affirmation of eternal life with Jesus Christ, tell us about it.

History is holy: what happened that day

After the Presentation of Christ the Savior, the Most Holy Theotokos lived in Ephesus at the home of the Fathers of the Apostle John the Theologian.

The Blessed Virgin, day and night, prayed for those, so that they would be more conscious of their Divine Son. The first axis of one time, at the hour of the prayer of the Mother of God to the Kremlin, the Archangel Gabriel appeared with a sound, that in three days the end of earthly life will come and she will strike with the Lord.

Before the passage at the light of the other mustache, the apostles miraculously leaned against the bed of the Mother of God, deva, praying, cheques of the blessed Zustrichi. And the Lord himself with a host of Angels came to take his soul.

The apostles commemorated the body of the Mother of God in the oven in Gethsemane, and for three days they rebuked the white of the oven in prayer. The zapіznіly apostle Homa was already scolded that he could not bow down to the holy relics of the Prisnodіv. The apostles built the grave to reassure Thomas. Vidkrivshi trunu, all were zdivani: the body of the Mother of God did not reveal. In such a manner, the stench perekonalis in the Її miraculous bodily ascension to Heaven.

Ioann the Theologian beat her, taking the woman, as if steadily stumbling, not blocking the road through tears, which caught her eyes. Vaughn realized that her son was already mute, but all the same she calmed herself down with hope that only the body died and that soon in the other world you could get in touch with your dear people.

The stench suffered through those who would soon spend their sleeping matir. Vaughn just laughed weakly and promised to protect them forever, as well as the Christians, praying for the salvation of their health.

Rapto the room was pierced with a bright, unearthly glow, and in the eyes of the radiant teachings, Christ appeared in sharpened angels. Vin especially came to take the soul from the mother, to bring her to heaven, bypassing purgatory. She died quietly, just falling asleep. Zvіdsi is not “death”, but Uspinnya is “sinanny”. The body of mother Jesus was carried to the tomb, de lying її man. And if, after a singing interval, they woke up the hour, then they sang that Mary was not there. Vaughn, like a syn її came up. The apostles were no longer astonished, if, looking at the sky, they danced in the open space of the smiling Matir. Vona urged to pray fast for everyone before God. axis taka History of the Dormition of the Most Holy Theotokos. 2019 rіk- this is the hour of the instability of the economy, small salaries that high prices.

With your prayers, you forbid the death of the souls of your children.

In order to correctly go to the Christian saint, follow the preparation. From 1 sickle it is necessary to fast, go to worship, repent and take communion. Before the end of the date, the harvesting of grain crops was already everywhere, and the sacred remains of the spikelet were dated until the end. The skin region has sleeping traditions of the holy celebration of the Assumption, ale є svoї osobennostі. In the middle of the bedrooms - worship at the church.

It is proponed to recognize the history of the holy, yogo traditions and recognition of the need for food: what is the date of the Dormition in 2017.

The 28th sickle is sacredly solemnized, and there will be no blame for that fate. Day before Assumption post, Try 14 days.

The Dormition Fast starts on 14 September 2017 and ends on 27 September 2017. This post of restorations before the great saints of the Transfiguration of the Lord and the Dormition Mother of God.

This is the shortest rich-day post for the rock. about For its strictness, the Dormition Pist is compared to the Holy Week of Great Lent. Ale, regardless of the price, wines are respected among the Orthodox and the lightest: and short, and licorice.

The lightest one - for God's Mother dbaє about those, so that the yoke of Christ would be easy for us. І dbaє about our body the same way, like about the soul.

The youngest of those who worship this Pist with consecration of honey, and then - the consecration of fruits: through malt, like the Lord gives for the body, we squashed and sipped, like a good Lord.

On the 14th sickle, the first day of the Dormition Fast, the Cross of Christ is brought up to worship. As if near the Old Testament, in the water of Merry, the tree descended for the word of the Lord, and the stench became licorice, so the heat of our life - as the Cross of Christ came to her - let it change for malt.

14 sickles - the day of the Baptism of Russia. And chreshchennya - tse i є so zanurennya at the horseradish water - the grace of Christ, if the mystery of the Cross is revealed. And whoever knows it, that one is ready to offer everything to the Lord - his life, and his death, so that you will live with Him. To this, the Holy Martyrs (on icons - stink with the Cross at the hands) go ahead of all the host of Saints. Our Russian Church, like any other, has become famous for the exploits of martyrdom. And in the last century, there was a special chanting of the Mother of God, the Її Holy Dormition, to whom a lot of monasteries have long been consecrated. In the Dormition of the Mother of God, like the Great Day of the Lord, death - those who respect the greatest sorrow - becomes the greatest joy.

Іsnuє pious sing with the Assumption fast of the day to read the Akathist of the Dormition, or repair the Paraklіsis - the prayer service of the Canon to the Most Holy Theotokos "Water passed, like dry land ...".

In the Dormition Fast, we are deceived by God for those who have come close to the end of summer, and we ask Yogo. vouchsafed us to spend the autumn in peace and bezturbotnosti. The Mother of God in the Dormition was saved from the destruction of the body, and with His resurrected body, the Kingdom of God was saved. Thus, at the Holy Assumption, we rise to the resurrection of the dead and our eternal resurrection order with the Mother of God there, de Resurrected Christ.

Also, 14 scythes near the churches are seen as a small consecration of the water, which is often called the Savior of the Honey Savior on the Water. For the rest of the day, the people of that day swam in the rivers and lakes, sweeping away all sins in such a manner. Vidpovidno before the tradition after the ear of the Dormition post, they didn’t bathe anymore.

If you respectfully remember the history, you can understand that a lot was written and said about the Virgin Mary during the period before the conception of Jesus Christ and before the birth of Jesus Christ. If the wines were rozіyaty on the cross, the mother did not come in, trembling by the hand and watching all the suffering. The Virgin Mary believed that less than the body had died, and soon she would soon sing with her son.

Passed the rocks, Mary lived at the turbot of Sim'ї Іoanna, but Mary was not calm. Vaughn often came to those places, when she was tormented by her son, she looked at the oven, she hung up and asked about death, so that she could get away from her son. And the Lord, having felt Mary and to remember her from the earth, all the disciples of Jesus Christ were chosen, they suffered, watching, that the Virgin Mary would soon be gone. Mary promised to pray for all and protect.

It became too light to be near the room, Christ appeared with angels and symbolically took his soul to bring him to paradise. Maria died, stuttering. For her, it was a radiant podia, she fell asleep, calling “sleep”. Mary was carried to the burial vault, where a man was lying. For three days the apostles were left behind the tombs and prayed. Until the funeral, the Apostle Khoma did not catch up, and bov, in the face of thogo, even more torment. Some other apostles allowed the Mother of God to bow down, and they opened the entrance to the tomb. Having played the chore, the stench chimed that Mary's body was not there. Vaughn just like that, like a blue rose up to the sky. It is important that Mary did not die, but fell asleep and threw herself for eternal life. The apostles lifted their heads to the sky and shook the smile of Mary there, as if she once again denounced for all to pray. It was a marvel, the same, like an immaculate conception.

Varto signify that before it was sacredly called not the Dormition, but “Memory of the Blessed”, later it was called “Holy Demise of the Mother of God”.

Metropolitan Anthony Surozky: Sermon on the Dormition of the Mother of God

We are holy today, our throne is holy; we all stand before the one and only throne, which is our own: the throne on which our God sits; ale, as it is said in the Holy Letter, God rests with the saints: not only at the holy places, but in the heart and in the mind of those cleansed by the feat of that grace, in the life of that in the very flesh of the saints.

Today is our holy day of the Assumption of the Holy of All Saints - the Mother of God. Vaughn fell asleep with the sleep of the earth; But just as Vaughn was alive to the very depths of Her nature, so Vauna was left alive: a living soul that ascended to the throne of God, alive and resurrected with His body, as if now she can pray for us. Verily, Vaughn is the throne of grace; the Living God settled in New, in the womb Її Vіn buv, like on the throne glorify Yours. And with a kind of kindness, with a kind of wonder, we think about New: Dzherelo life, Life-giving Dzherelo, as they call the Church, glorifying Її in one icon, - Life-giving Dzherelo, the Mother of God, end Your earthly life, sharpened by quivering love.

But what is she giving us? One only commandment and one miracle butt. Commandment - those words, like she said to the servants at Cana of Galilee: If you hadn't said Christ, then vikonate ... I stink vikonal; And waters of washing became the good wine of the Kingdom of God. Tsyu commandment Vaughan fills the skin of us: sensible, skin of us, the word of Christ, listen to the new and do not be only hearing, ale vikonay yoga, and then everything on earth will become heavenly, eternal, transfigured and glorified.

And Vaughn left us a butt: about Her there is in the Gospel, what a skin word about Christ, and, obviously, a skin word of Christ, Vaughn folded her heart like a treasure, like a more expensive one, what was in it ...

Let us become so attentive to hearing, as if we were hearing with love and all reverence, hear the word of the Savior from the skin. The Gospel has a lot to say; but the heart of the skin from us looks out one way, then another; and on what your heart has come to mind - the word spoken by the Savior Christ to you and me especially ... And we need to save the word like a path of life, like a dotik between us and God, as a sign of our controversy and closeness with Him.

And so we live, so we hear, so we put the word of Christ in our hearts, as if we are shining upon the earth, so that those who Elizabeth said to the Mother of God, when she came to her, will rise above us: You are in the sight of the Lord... May you be with us; let the Mother of God be our butt; accept the one commandment, and just as glorified by us in the holy temple, which is given in the donkey, be true, to that we worship the same God in it and through it in spirit and truth. Amen.

After the goddamn death of Jesus Christ, the Most Pure Yogo Mati lived for about fifteen years in Jerusalem, in the house of the holy Apostle John the Theologian, to whom the Lord Himself entrusted from the cross.
