Here's an excellent SHORT book in PDF format by Geronda Ephraim from 1991 - absolutely worth reading over and over again- (I had never seen it before it person )
If you don't have time for it all... scroll to the sections of interest to you personally!

**Thank you** so much for posting this link !!
My spiritual brother (a greatschema monk) and I read through this book together. What a blessing to have him explain things to me that I did not understand. Glory to God.
I am so glad you shared this.
Are there others?

best post The Holy Mountain in blog thanks for sharing
I used to live at Saint Anthony's. I picked up "A Call from the Holy Mountain" one day and began reading it. It didn't sound anything like my elder, so I asked Fr. Paisios about it. He took a look at it and came to the same conclusion. So, he asked Geronta Ephraim the next day if he had ever given such a talk, or given a blessing for this to be transcribed. Geronta Ephraim replied that he had never heard of it, and so couldn't have given his blessing for it. He didn't know anything about it. The book was published by the former ROCA monastery in Blanco, TX. I'm sorry that I cannot offer you any further information as to who the real author is, as I have no idea. Perhaps it was one of the monks from Blanco. Hope this helps.
