"Ascetic Sermon" is a collection of teachings, conversations and words of St. Ignatius (Bryanchaninov), spoken and unspoken, written for reading in church and for reading in the cell, which according to him "serves as a supplement to the description of spiritual Christian exploits contained in the "Ascetic Experiments" and significantly explains it". The reading of the "Ascetic Sermon", in the words of the saint, "befits all Orthodox Christians who wish to familiarize themselves with the ascetic life according to the reason of the holy fathers, according to the reason of the Church".

The second part of the book contains the "Word on Death," which received high praise even during the life of the saint: "It was not you who wrote it: it was God who gave you to write it." The main idea of this work is to remind the reader of eternity and the imminent end, to point out the only proper use of earthly life - preparation for eternity.
