Summary/Abstract: In the context of the Homage Year of prayer in the life of the Church and of the christian and of the Commemorative Year dedicated to the Hesychast saints Simeon the New Theologian, Grigore Palama and Paisie from Neamț Monastery dedicated by the Romanian Patriarchate, the sight of divine light is an essential theme, both to the hesychastic saints. The hesychastic saints' concern for man's intimate encounter with God through prayer is so obvious that their life, work, and social work confirm that the spiritual life of the Orthodox Christian cannot be lived without aspiring to the sight of divine light.
