There is no authentic spiritual growth outside of the Church and especially in this special field of Heart\'s prayer.
why? because the Holy Spirit in an unbaptized man stays outside of the heart (or nous).
and there is no distinction in the papists between created and Uncreated energies.
so,we should be very very careful when we read \"spiritual\" books written from non orthodox writers.
i think one of the best books on this subject is :
\"A NIGHT IN THE DESERT OF THE HOLY MOUNTAIN\"
By Bishop fr. Hierotheos Vlachos
