Our faiths are the resigned bearing of the cross of life. The Monk Seraphim of Sarov also did not advise anyone to wear the chains. If someone insults us by word or deed, and we endure resentment in an evangelical way, with joy - these will be our chains. Here is our hair shirt! These spiritual chains and hairshirts are higher than iron ones. ”
Schema-Igumen Savva (Ostapenko)
