St. Barsanuphius of Optina
Demons do not like Jesus prayerJesus prayer is a necessary weapon in the work of our salvation. But whoever undertakes it must expect temptations and prepare for the internal struggle, for the struggle against thoughts. Demons do not like Jesus prayer and in every way take revenge on the person who beats them with this scourge. [...] But although the prayer of Jesus gives labor to man, it also brings with it high comforts.
