During his <a href=\"https:\/\/episcopiahusilor.ro\/ps-ignatie-de-ce-traim-stari-de-anxietate-pentru-ca-ne-imaginam-frici-care-ne-golesc-de-energia-pe\">sermon<\/a>, the bishop explained the Gospel passage from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=Matthew%206%3A25-34&amp;version=NIV\">Matthew 6:22-34<\/a>, emphasizing the simple way people should relate to everything around them.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h1><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Simplicity<\/span><\/strong><\/h1>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Bishop <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Ignatie<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> stressed that Christ&#8217;s call for simplicity reminds us of a virtue lost in today&#8217;s technology-dominated society.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&#8220;Christ asks us to have that simple\u2014uncomplicated\u2014look that generates an equally simple mindset. When I use this adjective, I do not mean its pejorative connotation\u2014when we say someone is simple, it is equivalent to saying they are less intelligent,&#8221; noted Bishop Ignatie.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&#8220;I refer to that simplicity we identify in everything beautiful around us. Beauty, in all its forms\u2014whether we see it in people, nature, or things\u2014is always accompanied by simplicity. Everything beautiful can only be simple; what is simple is <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">evidently<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> beautiful.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&#8220;Saint Paul encouraged the Corinthians to have the simplicity and innocence of Christ. To better understand what this simplicity means, we should think of children, who take things in their essence and reality without adding unnecessary interpretations as adults do.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&#8220;To be a simple person, to see things in this way\u2014which generates a straightforward and pure mindset\u2014means to take things as they are in their essence, in their most true and profound reality.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<h1><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Sin, the root of complicating one\u2019s existence<\/span><\/strong><\/h1>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">His Grace noted that &#8220;all the confusion, disorientation, and relativization of what we live are because we no longer grasp the essence (the reality) or, as Saint Maximus the Confessor tells us in the Philokalia, to grasp the reason of the thing in itself\u2014what that thing (situation, context, or person) wants to convey to us, without us adding aspects or nuances that belong to our soul.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&#8220;Sin always generates illusions. Sin does not live in reality, has nothing to do with the <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">truth<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, and is always a lie and a perpetuation of an illusion. The more we let sin and passion inhabit us, the less we can see what is real, the essence, or the simplicity of a thing, a situation, or a thought,&#8221; stated Bishop Ignatie.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&#8220;It is so sad that we have become so complicated that the simple gestures coming from those around us connotate in our minds in a way that the one who conveys them did not even think of.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The consequence of a malicious approach to everything happening around us is that &#8220;we will become malicious and cunning people ourselves.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&#8220;It is not by <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">mere<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> chance that one of the Philokalic Fathers, Saint John Climacus, dedicated a few passages in word 24 to simplicity\u2014what it means to be a simple person, to take things in their reality. This Philokalic Father tells us that simplicity is the soul&#8217;s habit free from complicated (various) thoughts, which has become unwavering (the soul) towards non-malicious thinking. Non-malice is a serene state of the soul, freed from any cunning thought. The throne of simplicity is a gentle soul.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&#8220;If we <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">manage to<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> read the entire Gospel passage in this key, we will find that we cannot serve both God and mammon because the devil always complicates things, entangling them very much. God, when we feel His presence and work, helps us see things in their simplicity,&#8221; emphasized His Grace Bishop Ignatie.<\/span><\/p>\n<h1><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Healing stress<\/span><\/strong><\/h1>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Bishop <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Ignatie<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> recalled the words of Saint Paisios of Mount Athos, who said: &#8220;Simplify your life to eliminate stress!&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&#8220;We must take care of what we will eat, what we will wear, and how we prepare professionally to provide for our living, to establish a family. We make the effort but must leave the concern for success to God.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&#8220;Why do we experience anxiety and become anguished? Because we imagine fears that do not exist, fears that drain us, like vampires, of the energy we should put into good things.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">hierarch<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> explained that all these illusions come from the idea that we own something, but neither our health nor material goods belong to us.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&#8220;We are obsessed with controlling everything and those around us, but we cannot because we cannot replace God. We cannot control our health\u2014we can maintain it and take care of it, but we cannot control it. We cannot control our material possessions. We can work and become greedy and corrupt, but we will lose everything; we cannot control anything.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">His Grace Bishop Ignatie stated: &#8220;<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Truth<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> never imposes itself through pride or force. When we want to share the <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">truth<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> with those around us, it has a special humility and suppleness, and it enters the soul of those around us without any effort <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">on our part<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The more we complicate things, the more we enter a fog that prevents us from seeing the light. We get entangled, losing the meaning of life.<\/span><\/p>\n<h1><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Guidance<\/span><\/strong><\/h1>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Bishop Ignatie offered several pieces of advice for simplifying our view of things.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&#8220;Always seek beauty because there you will find simplicity! If we look towards the ugly, it is tangled, and it tangles us, hinders our lives, and puts so many obstacles that we end up not finding the meaning of our lives and, therefore, live in <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">a state of<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> disorientation, not knowing which path to follow.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&#8220;Christ, who urges us to embrace the simplicity and innocence of life, should be the One who changes our lives\u2014especially our mentality and the way we see things and people around us.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&#8220;The Liturgy is one of the services that truly teaches us what simplicity means. To reach the simplicity we see in the Liturgy, we need to see where the essence is and why we participate in the service,&#8221; explained Bishop Ignatie of Hu\u0219i.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">&#8220;How many of you have thought that by coming to the Liturgy, we should <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">make an effort<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> to see what God wants to tell us, not what we want to tell God? Most of the time, we believe: I go to the Lord&#8217;s house to talk to Him. But<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, in fact,<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> we talk more about ourselves; we are selfish.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">His Grace concluded with the passage: &#8220;Sure, the Lord, in His humility, listens to us too, those of us who are less wise. But this is not why we come to the Liturgy. We come to see what He wants to tell us, not what we want to tell Him. If we focus on what the Lord wants to tell us, we will truly discover what we should tell ourselves, to our <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">own<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> conscience.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Photo: Diocese of Hu\u0219i<\/p>\n<p>Follow us on X.com: <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/basilicanews\">@BasilicaNews<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Sunday, His Grace Bishop Ignatie of Hu\u0219i officiated the Divine Liturgy at the Metropolitan Cathedral in Sibiu.
