"The source and ground of our distractive thoughts is the fragmented
state of our memory. The memory was originally simple and one-pointed,
but as a result of the fall its natural powers have been pervertedit has
lost its recollectedness in God and has become compound instead of
simple, diversified instead of one-pointed."
St. Gregory of Sinai.
"For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is
life and peace. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is
not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. So then, those who are
in the flesh cannot please God." Romans 8:6-8
Draw nigh unto God and He will draw nigh unto you.
