Glory transfigures saints from within, invisible to the curious mind, revealed to wisdom, a holy nothingness that cleanses the heart from nihilism, illumiming the mind in the heart.
Transfiguration turns the mind around, enlightening the heart with wisdom, glorifying sinners as they transfigure into saints, opening earth to heaven, transfiguring earth in heavenly glory.
Holy Orthodoxy celebrates Holy Transfiguration today, one of the greatest feasts, beloved of Hesychast elders like Saint Silouan and Saint Sophrony, both of whom had intimate awareness of transfiguring wisdom and glorification.
