We all desire to enter Paradise, but our sins forbid us. But there is a path to salvation—to turn to the Most Holy Theotokos. She is the Door of Paradise, the one who opens the entrance, and so the Church reads to her: "Rejoice, opening of the gates of Paradise" (Akathist, Ikos 4). No one can enter Paradise except through the Theotokos. This is what Blessed Herman, Patriarch of Constantinople, says of her: "No one has known God except through You, O Most Pure One! No one will receive salvation except through You, O Theotokos! No one will escape their misfortune except through You, O Mother of God! No one is redeemed except through You, O Mother of God." The book's author, winner of the "Enlightenment Through Books" competition, offers stories about miraculous icons of the Most Holy Theotokos and calls on people to steadfastly hold on to the gates of paradise—the Most Pure Virgin—and to enter paradise itself with Her, leaving behind all sorrows and illnesses.
