      Yes, but it's the fullness of a life of prayer, which we lay persons may certainly follow as we have time to do so. The Lord Jesus Christ is our Shepherd, and leads His sheep wherever they can "pasture" in the Holy Orthodox Faith. (Jn 10)

      You can be if you are male; women are not allowed on Mount Athos. You need to apply for a pass. The Patriarch Bartholomew's web page has instructions on how to do this; I think there is an Enlglish language option on the site. Alternatively you can visit the Mount Athos site.

      They had special permission from Simonapetra's Abbot Elder Aemilanos (reposed 2019) who wanted the world to share in their life of prayer and holiness! His books "Church at Prayer" and "Life in the Spirit" are collections of his excellent Spirit-filled sermons. His prayer led me to be washed in the Spirit while reading his "Jesus Prayer" - and a miracle beyond anything heard of - an appearance of this Elder (his angel no doubt) by a young Orthodox convert, now M. Aemiliane, who was rescued under 60 TONS of cement fallen from an Atrium bridge in a KC hotel. She saw Elder holding her after her instantaneous coming out from under the cement pile, and telling her "you will be fine my dear". Elder was at mt Athos, but the Lord allowed him to be present for this young Orthodox convert. She later found out who he was and joined him in the women's monastery ion Greece (Thebes). She is now abbess at "Sacred Monastery of St Nina" in Union Bridge MD - her miracle is told on "St Nina's quarterly" under "Sister Aemiliane Interview". God love and keep us through the prayer of our Elder as we glorify Christ in His saints! Amen~

      it varies from Monastery to Monastery - are you in the UK by any chance?? You can try and visit the Eastern Orthodox Monastery of St John the Baptist in Essex, UK. A lot of the services are in English as well - and there would be no problem staying there. It's a beautifull spiritually uplifting place - very much worth the visit - especially during Lent if you want to experience the fasting and prayer. I hope this helps.

    And it is worth ordering from the priest in the church to read the akathist for your name of St. Cyprian and St. Justine and of St. Archangel Michael against magic and all enemies visible and unvisible. This is if you are baptized Orthodox. There always were sorcerers even after Jesus said it is from devil they remained in every country and on every second or third family something is put from a sorcerer. And when you intend to go to command the akathist in the church, such thoughts may appear: "Maybe tomorrow, or next week", "Maybe I'm such a freak and no one is watching me (girls or boys, if you can not anyways find a pair, or you can for some reason speak only with one girl or boy.)", "The life is this way with good times and bad times", " I am so(if you have impotence)". etc. These thoughts come from demons from sorcery spells because only the prayer of the priest can 100% protect from magic and enemies visible and invisible. Jesus Christ told the apostles(which are the first priests) "I give you the right to untie everything that is tied in heaven and on earth.". Faith and creed is opinion, is how somebody thinks with his head. Repent is changing and not auto-humiliation as many think. May be enherited soul ilnessses like despresia, schizofrenia, Tourette sindrom, insomnia, bifurcation of personality etc. as they are from soul illnesses. Firstly everyone must to eradicate schizofrenia, depression etc. from him and after that to planify making children, in order that they will not jump from balconie, have blood cancer, be born bodytobody joined twins or two headed and etc. These soul illnesses can be healed by eucharisty. In the afternoon before eucharist day you have to read " The prayers before eucharisty" where are asked from eucharisty such things like: soul and body healing, sins forgiveness, protection from devils etc. It is better to go to confession in the morning in the day of eucharisty(before eucharisty)because from evening to morning everyone can make the same sins again and again and also other bigger sins. If not to forgive someone who asked for forgiveness it is not worth going to eucharisty because the sins will not be forgiven. Humbleness is awareness that in every doing you can fall and not auto-oppresion as most do and think, someone without auto-oppression is 100% free in moves in every direction, it is like a lion at freedom.
    Entering(submersion 3 times with a certain prayer and crossing yourself) in water springs of orthodox saints (which are near or in monasteries)give very much power and sureness to people with depression, panic attacks, schizofrenia and other soul illnesses, there are some springs of mother of God Maria that even heal soul illnesses.

      It's by a German pilgrim who visited Elder Aemilanos and had his permission to bring his film crew and do the documentary. Not perfect, but beautiful. See Archbishop Alexander (OCA Diocese of South) on "Protecting Veil" interview about "Elder Aemilianos" under whom he learned how to pray and work in the Holy Spirit.

      You have fallen into delusion... there is only One God, who established His Orthodox Church, the fulfillment of the Old Testament - the longest chain of writing and oral history in all of creation - this worship of God Most High only continues in the Orthodox Christian Church.
      Saint Nilus of Sinai (5th century) warns: "Do not desire to see sensually Angels or Virtues, or Christ, otherwise you’ll go mad taking a wolf for the shepherd and bowing to demon-enemies"
      2 Corinthians 11:14 And no wonder! For Satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light.
      St Maximos the Confessor in the First Century of Love expressed it thus, "He who has not yet attained to knowledge of God inspired by love, thinks highly of what he does according to God. But a man who has received it repeats in his heart the words of our forefather Abraham, when God appeared to him, 'I am earth and ashes' (Gn.18:27)."
