CONTEMPLATION AND JOY TO THE WORSHIPPER. DURING THE TASBEHA, THE INHABITANTS OF EARTH JOIN THE HEAVENLY HOSTS TO PRAISE OUR SAVIOUR. THE FIRST HYMN TENTHINO, WHICH IS
TRANSLATED TO ARISE O CHILDREN IS CHANTED AT THE BEGINNING OF THE MIDNIGHT PRAISES, WHICH CRIES UNTO THE LORD TO AWAKEN US FROM OUR SLUMBER TO PRAISE HIM BEFITTINGLY.

His Grace shares with us some requirements for prayer in these multipart tracks. In part 5, we hear the final requirement:

“Persist in and honour reading if possible more than prayer. Reading is the spring of intelligent prayer.” - St. Pope Kyrillos VI

St. Isaac in homily 64 says: "Give more honor to reading, if possible than standing, for it is the source of pure prayer."

All the quotes are found in A Silent Patriarch by Fr. Daniel Fanous

His Grace shares with us words of St. Pachomius:
One day his disciples asked him, 'Is there anything we can do to have the power of making miracles?' He answered with a smile:

"If you desire to continue on the spiritual way to the Kingdom of Heaven, do not ask for this power because it brings pride to beginner monks; pray and seek for the divine power for making spiritual miracles. Should there be a man who resists God’s way and you bring him back to the real knowledge of God, then you have already raised the dead. If you bring a heretic back to the Orthodox, the right way, then you have already opened the eyes of one born blind. If you could change a money-lover’s hand to open it to the poor, or if you can make a lazy person active in spiritual work, then you have already cured a paralyzed man. If you can cause an adulterer to repent, then you have already extinguished flames and fires. If you can make the mad to be calm and humble, you’ve already removed an evil spirit out of him. Do you think there is ANYTHING greater than these that we can look forward to?"
