The world today is perishing and suffering, not because there are no those who would be interested in its needs, but because there are no prayer books. Many believe that the work of monks (which consists mainly in prayer) is useless and unnecessary, not knowing that prayer is a spiritual activity, a bloody struggle and vigilant wakefulness. They don't even want to know that someone is praying about their own problems... The Holy Mountain is the ark of Orthodoxy, which does not say much, but experiences a lot. Only if the Holy Spirit ceases to operate in the Church, then there will be no contemplators of the uncreated light. The Holy Mountain hides great treasures... And today, by the grace of God, there are consecrated monks. The earth owes its existence to these blessed ascetics. They enlighten modern world immersed in the darkness of sin.

Metropolitan Hierofei (Vlachos)

Athos... In the silence of their lonely cells, in the monastic silence, in the highest spiritual concentration, the monks of the Athos do their unceasing prayer for many centuries for us, for the sinful world and its salvation. Great spiritual experience has been accumulated over the centuries; as Metropolitan Hierofei (Vlachos) writes, “Like the holy Angels, the earthly Angels, who dwell on the Holy Mountain and imitate the heavenly and incorporeal in life and prayer, have a different power, through which they convey the experience of their lives. This power is silence, which, especially on Horus, is the most persuasive eloquence, silent instruction. They do not speak there, but live in silence by the Divine Mysteries.”

Silence is the key to understanding the essence of monastic life. What prompted the brilliant Byzantine nobleman of the 10th century, Euthymius, to leave his idle life for a monastery, to become a friend and faithful disciple of the founder of the Great Lavra of Athos, St. Athanasius? He was appointed dohiaromi (manager of the monastic household) and carried on his shoulders a huge burden of worries. But his soul yearned for silence, for silent prayer, and by Divine Providence he was shown a quiet place. Thus, a new Athos monastery was founded, named "Dochiar" (Docheiariou) in memory of the obedience of Euthymius, in the monastic vows of Neophyte. The monastery experienced both times of prosperity and times of decline. But the miraculous icon of the Mother of God, known as the “Skoroshnitsa” (Gorgoepekoos), shone invariably in the monastery. The great shrine is an image of the Mother of God, referring to the Hodegetria type. She continues whole line similar icons: Iverskaya, Tikhvinskaya, Smolenskaya, Georgian, Chernigov... The fresco, painted in the niche of the outer wall in front of the entrance to the refectory, depicts the Blessed Virgin in a crown with the Divine Infant on her left hand. The Child blesses with his right hand, and holds a scroll with his left. The right leg is tucked under the left, so that her foot is visible. In 1664, a miracle happened: monks often walked by, and most often a trapezar named Neil walked by on official business. In the evening, passing by the icon with a smoking torch, Neil heard a voice from her: “For the future, do not come here with a lit torch and do not smoke My image.” The trapezar was frightened at first, but then he decided that one of the brethren had spoken these words. Neil soon forgot about it. strange case and continued to walk past the icon with a lit torch. But one evening he heard the same voice: “Monk, unworthy of this name! How long have you so carelessly and so shamelessly smoked My image?!” At these words, Neil lost his sight. The refectory fell on his knees before the icon and all night, before the arrival of the brethren, he prayed to the Most Pure One for forgiveness. When the monks learned about the miracle that had taken place, they fell in fear to the miraculous icon, lit an inextinguishable lamp in front of it, and ordered the new refectory to burn incense every evening and incense in front of the icon. Nil, in the hope of the great mercy of the Mother of God, decided not to leave the icon until he received forgiveness and healing. And his earnest prayer was soon answered. After a while, kneeling in front of the icon, he again heard a familiar voice: “Nile! You are forgiven, sight is again given to your eyes. When you receive this mercy from Me, tell the brethren that I am their protection, industry and protection of their monastery dedicated to the Archangels. Let them and all Orthodox Christians turn to Me in need, and I will not leave anyone; to all who reverently resort to Me, I will intercede, and the prayers of all will be fulfilled by the Son and My God, for the sake of My intercession before Him. From now on, this My icon will be called the Quick Listener: I will show mercy to everyone who comes to her soon.

The news of the insight of the Nile immediately spread to all the monasteries of Athos. Monks from other monasteries began to come to the miraculous image to thank the Most Pure One for Her care of the Holy Mountain. A special and constant honoring of the glorified icon was established. The passage to the refectory from the side where the icon was located was closed, and the place around the miraculous image was beautifully and decently fenced. On the right side of the icon in the refectory, a temple was built in honor of the icon of the "Quick Hearing". By decision of the brethren, one hieromonk began to be elected from among its number, who, constantly staying near the icon, performed prayer chants in the morning and evening and watched the icon lamp. And until now, on Tuesdays and Thursdays, all the brethren of the Dohiar monastery, after the evening service, gather in the refectory, at miraculous icon, and in a singsong voice they sing the touching canon of the Mother of God. The “quick-a-letter” has a deliberate grace to heal epilepsy (epilepsy) and demonic possession.

The "Quick Hearer" is especially revered in Rus'. In 1873, a wealthy Russian merchant presented the icon with a magnificent riza. In 1938, the Dohiar monastery donated to the Russian Ecclesiastical Mission in Jerusalem a copy of the miraculous, which was also famous for many miraculous healings.

In Moscow, there are many lists from the miraculous shrine of Athos, but only one temple is dedicated to the icon of the Mother of God "Quick to Hear". In 1902, this pseudo-Byzantine stone church with a single-span belfry of the Pskov type was built on the Khodynka field at the camp department of the Moscow military hospital for the Moscow Alexander and Tver cavalry military schools. In 1992, ninety years after the founding of the temple, divine services were resumed in it.

The revered list of the "Soon Acolyte" resides in the church in the name of St. Martin the Confessor in Solombala, an island region of Arkhangelsk. The icon has never been restored and has become very dark from time to time, so that the Solombala residents began to gradually forget about the revered shrine for a long time. Then the Most Pure Herself pointed to this image - the icon began to be updated. Since 1997, the image has become brighter, by November 2000 it has become distinct, and on November 22, according to the old style, on the day of the celebration of the icon of the Mother of God "Quick to Hear", the faces and halos of the Mother of God and the Child brightly appeared, the crown and robes brightened. On the same day, a prayer service was served in front of the newly-appeared shrine.

In the city of Pechora, on the long-suffering land of the Komi, where for decades they died on construction railways prisoners of the Gulag, by the providence of God and the intercession of the Most Pure, not so long ago was founded convent in the name of the "Quick Acolyte". In 1992, a miraculous appearance of the Mother of God took place above this place in the sky. And in August of the same year, Abbot Pitirim saw the Mother of God walking on the ground near the temple towards the procession. At the place where Her feet passed, a votive cross is now installed and a well has been dug over the holy spring. Often, even on a winter day, a rainbow is visible over the Pechora monastery.

Russian Orthodox cathedrals in Rotterdam (Holland) and in the capital of Estonia (under construction) are dedicated to the "quick-a-letter". To this day, both on Athos, and in Russia, and in the Russian diaspora, prayers are served before this icon and akathists are sung - may the Blessed Lady save Her children from all troubles and evils.

One of the most famous icons in Orthodoxy is considered to be the Dispute. A special prayer is said before her. What is remarkable about the prayer "Quick Hearing", and when it is worth pronouncing it, we will consider in more detail.

The meaning and power of the image

If you say the necessary prayer words, sincerely asking the Queen of Heaven for help, then all your desires will certainly be heard. The intercessor hears everyone and everyone, no matter where they turn to her (from the temple or from an ordinary apartment). The main thing is your unshakable faith and hope for the best.

As for the prayer dedicated specifically to the “Quick Acolyte”, it is read in the following situations:

  • for the speedy healing of eye diseases;
  • when a person cannot choose a truly meaningful life path for himself;
  • if the believer seeks to know spiritual insight;
  • if a person wants to quickly find family happiness.

As a rule, people go to the icon with the image of the Holy Mother of God in those cases when they are afraid that their city will be engulfed by a natural disaster or they are already suffering from serious illnesses, and, perhaps, from an invasion of the lives of enemies.

Many Orthodox Christians choose to use this religious text when they are trying to move up the career ladder or just need help (with regard to work issues and not only).

However, do not forget that financial well-being- this is not something with which it is worth pronouncing a prayer dedicated to the "Quick Hearing". Even if you pronounce all the prayer words from memory, this does not mean that it comes from the depths of your heart. Only a sincere request and pure thoughts will help make the sacred text stronger spiritually.

Quite often, blind people turn to such a prayer. Often they even get a long-awaited epiphany. The same can be said about lame sufferers. Women who want to get pregnant as soon as possible and give birth to a healthy baby also prefer to read this text.

It is not enough just to understand the purpose for which you can turn to the icon. It is also recommended to strictly adhere to religious canons, because in this way you will do everything in your power. For example, if you want to be healed of a serious illness, you need to appear directly in front of the icon, read not only a prayer, but also an akathist, and then light a candle. At the same time, try not only to ask, but also to repent of a long non-attendance at the temple.

It is also necessary to acknowledge committed sins. Only then proceed to the direct request. In the process of reading the sacred text, it is necessary to mentally transfer all your spiritual sorrows to the shoulders of the Holy Image - this is important for the effectiveness of your words. Remember that the prayer to the Mother of God should not be technically memorized and pronounced dryly.

It is very important to be able to consider in a string of difficulties one main problem. Only now you can turn to the Quick Listener and ask her for help. Along with it, you will also receive spiritual insight.

The oldest imprinted face of the Mother of God is the Icon of the Mother of God of the Quick Hearing, it is kept on Mount Athos, in the monastery of Dohiar. Prayer to the Quick Hearer has a miraculous effect, it helps to resolve even the most difficult life situations. How to pray to the Quick Hearer and what is the history of this icon, you will learn by reading this article.

This icon was painted in the 10th century by monks from the Holy Mount Athos, and received its name after the miracle.

Dohiar Monastery

According to the legends, there was not enough money to complete the construction of the monastery. By the grace of the Mother of God, the monk who performed his obedience in the refectory was given a sign of a treasure hidden in the monastery grounds. The monk took with him two people from the brethren and went for the treasure. The temptation seized those who accompanied them, and they decided to throw the monk into the abyss with a stone around his neck, and take possession of the wealth alone.

But the archangels Michael and Gabriel were on guard and did not allow evil to happen. They saved the novice, and the treasure was used to build a monastery. And dedicated the service of the Dohiar monastery disembodied forces i.e. angels and archangels.

Questions from visitors and answers from experts:

Where did the name of the icon come from?

There is an ancient tradition according to which the Icon of the Mother of God was called the Quick Hearer. In the middle of the 17th century, the negligent monk Nil labored in the refectory, inadvertently smoking the Holy Face with a lit torch.

One evening he heard a human voice from a niche with an icon:

"Don't come here anymore with a burning torch and don't stain my image."

Neil thought that these were jokes of the brethren and did not heed the voice. He, just as always, walked past with fire and smoked the icon of the Virgin.

And here again was the word to him:

"Shameless monk, you did not heed my voice and continue to smoke my image."

At the same time, the monk went blind, and in repentance fell prostrate before the icon And took a vow not to leave her day or night and pray until forgiveness and healing come. Upon learning of what had happened, an unquenchable lamp was lit in front of the Icon and they prayed to it day and night. And forgiveness came to Neil, and again he heard a familiar voice:

Neil, your prayer has been heard and your repentance accepted.

From now on and forever and ever, let all Orthodox turn to me,

And I will intercede before God and the Son for the fulfillment of their prayers.

And from now on and forever this icon of mine will be called Quick to Hearer, for soon I will listen to all those who ask.

From that time to the present, servants have been assigned to the Holy Icon, caring for it and performing all the rites. And the prayer to the Quick Listener for help really became one of the most effective.

Miraculous copies from the Prototype

On procession take out a copy of the miraculous icon.

The prototype of the face is painted on the wall of the monastery refectory and is an ancient fresco that gathers Orthodox pilgrims from all over the world.
