"Philokalia" is probably the second greatest book (all 4 volumes of it) ever written. It is the Orthodox Christian spirituality exposed in the purest form. But this book is not for non-Orthodox Christians, neither is it for every Orthodox Christian.It is for those who have a spiritual father who can guide them through the book and insure that they do not fall into delusion. This book, as many other great ascetical and spiritual classics, should only be read with the blessing of an experienced spiritual father.
