Aghion Oros (Mount Athos) Travel Guide: 40 reviews and 268 photos

If I tried to decide with love and with peace, if I did the best I could in that respect - but now I am second guessing and reconsidering what I decided - I am questioning a holy effort. Don't reconsider. Just keep walking in peace.

Walk straight into the peace of God. Don't ask if you are there yet. Just keep walking.

candle and Trojerucica

Specific to the monastery is that that it's Abbot is not a man, the Abbot is holy Godmother, which icon called "Trojerucica" (on serbian) - "Triherusa"(on greek) - "Threehanded"(on english) stands above chair of Abbot, and the Abbot of the monastery(Greece order the Serbs that they must have an man Abbot) sits to her's right side.
