That is very cool. The explanation is a good one - I'll have to ask Pater about this at some point soon and monastic humour is great. I've acquired a taste for it in the last year or so
I won't spoil the joke for those who haven't watched it, but I'm still giggling.
I wish there was an endless supply of these videos. I think I've seen every single Orthodox elder video on youtube. Is there another site with more of these? I can't seem to get enough of interviews and talks with abbots, monks, and elders
I've seen all that YouTube has to offer. If you find any that you particularly like that are instructive and/or edifying, let me know Barky and I'll pop them up over in DC's video resource section. This video's already there.
Elder Arsenie is a truly wonderful man... may he intercede fervently for us.
