Saint Theophan the Recluse's book, "Contemplation and Meditation," is one of the precious fruits of a solitary, attentive life in seclusion, filled with sincere prayer and contemplation. These short notes, written by the saint of God over many years, are both momentary revelations and the culmination of many years of spiritual practice. Here, through contemplation, insights into the incomprehensible are revealed and clothed in words. A ray of reflection illuminates the depths of God's Wisdom, revealing answers to the "eternal" questions about the fate of the world, the essence of human faith, true freedom, true love, and joy. What is the path to knowledge of God, and how can children be raised in the faith? How does science relate to faith, and what should the death of our loved ones teach us? Is it possible to withdraw from the world while remaining in it? What do the words of the Savior mean: "The Kingdom of God is within you," and the Apostle's commandment: "Quench not the Spirit"? Saint Theophan answers these and many other questions, which even those who have become established in the faith ask themselves, revealing to us the meaning of the events and phenomena of earthly life and affirming our hope for the Life to Come.

This book is the first separate publication of Saint Theophan the Recluse's brief notes, which were published in the journal "Home Conversation" from 1869 to 1877.
