Summary/Abstract: Through the work of God, the Paisian tradition in the Romanian Principalities developed, forming a true school of prayer, with ascetic hesychasts who, in line with the spiritual filiation, have formed new generations of ascetic monks from the 18th century to the present. Among these ascetic monks, many have gone on to great spiritual achievements. The present study seeks to present some of the direct and indirect disciples of Saint Paisius of Neamt who sanctified their lives. Through their humility, love and ascetic exercises, God worked visibly in their lives, making them sources of holiness and blessing for those who sought their help and prayers, their spiritual work evidently continuing even after they passed away, being devoutly honoured by the clergy and faithful.
