The Light of Mt. Tabor

The Transfiguration of Christ


An Eastern Christian Prayer to be said in front of an Icon


Holy Paraclete, Giver of Life, Eternal God:  Mercifully bestow on us the Grace of the Life-giving Energies of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ; and let us live as faithful children of the Light, so that we – finally beholding the unfading beauty of the Vision of the uncreated Light, becoming partakers by Grace of the Divine Nature, and being transformed into the glorious Likeness of our Creator – may on the awesome Day of Judgment be reckoned among the august company of His Mother, our Lady and Queen, and all others in whom the Love of God has been perfected, and worship and bask forever in the refulgence of the true Glory.  Amen.

          King Solomon once searched for a cure against depression.  He assembled his wise men together.  They meditated for a long time and gave him the following advice:  Make yourself a ring and have thereon engraved the words "This too will pass."  

          The King carried out the advice. He had the ring made and wore it constantly.  Every time he felt sad and depressed, he looked at the ring, whereon his mood would change and he would feel cheerful.
