Thank you Mother Natalia for keeping me informed an tilting toward the right path.
Thank you, dear Mother. God Bless you always.
Mother, I think it is fantastic that you and Father Pine both have segments on Pints with Aquinas. You two are, as far as I know enough to judge such things, great examples of the Eastern and Western traditions of the Church. We desperately need both! We need the cerebral theology of the west and the deep feeling of the heart from the East; not that the west is all head and east all heart (oversimplification). But you should rest in who God has made you and not feel self conscious at not being like another religious. I very much appreciate your messages.
I love how you invoked the saints to our aids at the end. Powerful!
Thank you mother Natalia! One of the best videos on Catholicism I’ve seen. This really helped with my scrupulosity.
I'm so glad Mother is expanding on the eight evil thoughts. Your the best Mother Natalia. Love you and God bless you
That's an interesting look at the Crowlian self love. Great exposure of untwisting the term of self love to show it is not true love with out the love of God first. Thank you Mother Natalia.
I gave away my television. Now, I just need to give up CZcams! lol
CZcams is not evil. What one views on CZcams is the thing to discern.
@@CaesarConsuloProVita I understand. It's the near temptation of sin that I can do without.
@@randycarson9812 Fair enough…but there is a lot of good on CZcams. Like this video that we are commenting on. I find that one of my biggest stumbling blocks is an overly ascetic Scrupulosity. I have given up most tv….but have no intention of giving up CZcams.
If you must….so be it. Food for thought….
I mostly use you tube for faith videos, and cute cat videos, also a bit of music
Thank you, Mother. Looking forward to the upcoming videos.
Thank you, this is beautiful. I’d never heard of the 8 eight evil thoughts. Looking forward to the next episode.
Thank you Mother Natalia for bringing us wisdom of the Fathers. God bless you
Thank you Mother Natalia! This was beautiful!
Very profitable! Thank you, Mother! 🤍
Thank you, Mother Natalia. Very informative. I'm looking forward to the rest of the series. God bless you.
thank you for being so humble
Mother Natalia: would you be able to share the chart or the slides for this talk? For those of us who are visual learners, it would be easier to follow your teaching with something to reference.
Thank you Mother this was so informative
I love hearing these teachings
My goodness thank you Mother Natalia. This is great stuff. Kudos to whomever came up with the idea of Mother Natalia having her own podcast. Brilliant. I love the fact that she is young and will also not only reach the older generation as myself but also the younger generation.
Thank you, Mother Natalia, for this. I am so looking forward to a continuation of this series. The technological marvels that are such an inextricable part of our modern world only serve to amplify and make more accessible every vice that afflicts us. They act as fertilizer for the pernicious thoughts that produce such transgressions. You name the evil thought or action, the online world facilitates it in a way that is far more extreme than in any other time in our history. This is why this deep dive into the genesis of evil thoughts is desperately needed in our modern era.
Thank you Mother your videos are such a blessing! Excited for this series.
Your videos would reach even more people if you added closed captions for those with hearing issues :) Not my case but I noticed there weren't any. Thank you and God bless you 🤍
Thank you! I'll be looking forward to further videos.
This is a great reflection and introduction to a very pertinent topic. I am looking forward to this series. Thank you!
Thank you, Reverend Mother.
Thank you Mother Natalia. I do love your readings of the church Fathers, would you consider a bible study of some kind, as a catholic the closest i come to this was Bishop Mar Mari videos. I Thank you for your spiritual guidance.
Yay! Mthr Natalia!
Boy oh boy is this going to be a journey….
Thank you for all you do. It’s helping a lot.
We need a top 10 books to read that you e read and recommend.
I’m exited can’t wait for this series!
I deff need to read the book you recommend there.
Wonderful video. Great insight and enthusiasm for the material. Looking forward to next weeks episode. Discipline Equals Freedom-Jocko. Vive Christie Rex.
Thank you Mother Natalia
Thank you for talking about these Mother! I get confused about this because as Paul says, the heart is desperately wicked, etc… So it’s confusing because if these thoughts are counter to our nature, they are not in fact in our hearts?
Please never stop making videos mother natalia
This was fire
Another great book, The Theology of Illness. by Jean-Claude Larchet.
Love this
Mother N needs to do vids on how the Byzantine Divine Liturgird of SS Basil and John Chrysostom work!
May you please tell me the name of the therapy book you mention?
What is the name of the book being referenced?
@@bethmcmullan7686 This is the book the commentator is referencing? Thank you.
I will join you , 🙏🏽
Buddhist "sin" is caste and family. Christian sin is non-circumcision. You have to understand that circumcision is something like habit creating, since it is performed at a so young age!!
So sadness is evil? According to who? Sadness and grief are mentioned many times in the bible, never once that i can recall was anyone subject to God's wrath due to simply being sad. Unless this came from Jesus himself i am a little dubious about this.
Sadness comes from the evil one. Sadness will grow and fool us into believing our sins aren't forgivable. This prevents us from seeking salvation. That is why we as catholics can offer up our suffering to better serve Jesus. Sadness leads to losing hope; which is contrary to our theological virtues.
I think perhaps it is less to do with the fleeting emotion of sadness, which we will all feel from time to time and have little control over.
The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak.
If you see cruelty and injustice or suffer the loss of a loved one, that is undoubtedly going to spark a feeling of sadness but it passes and we move on in time.
I feel its more about holding onto that emotion and dwelling in a pit of self pity and depression which leads to losing hope like you mentioned.
Obviously this is only my opinion, but I feel like we are unlikely to be condemned for feeling a very human emotion once in a while.
I can't speak for the Lord, but I believe it's more about the excess of any emotion that leads us to sin rather than expecting ourselves to somehow never feel these very human things.
We can't just completely rid ourselves of emotion. It's impossible to never be sad or angry. It's more about not allowing those emotions to define who we are.
Seeking the Lord when we feel burdened by strong negative emotions rather than suffering alone and letting them take over our thoughts and direct our actions towards others.
We will never be perfect whilst we are still in the flesh.
Emotions are unavoidable.
Anything in excess is bad for us and not taking those things to lord and allowing him to shoulder that burden will only lead us to unnecessary suffering.
@@Christ_Is_King34 yes one feels pain and cries. We feel sadness and it's ok. The tricky part is the continued sadness will lead to hopelessness and maybe nihilism.
The way I would imagine it is taken is to think of "sadness" as despair / hopelessness, rather than as a rational grief or simply feeling a loss.
Hope is a virtue, therefore despair is an evil - an absence of hope.
🙏❤🙏
All the homies love Natalia
Prout !!! Pouet !!!
I’m sure it’ll be great, but that corporate style inclusivity art isn’t doing the thumbnail any favors
I feel silly, but what is inclusive about the art?
I don’t get what you mean be inclusivity but I agree that the art isn’t doing it any favors. The arms being so huge makes them look like legs. The shoulders being so round makes them look like a butt and the end result looks like someone is excreting a head.
@jackiekjono I actually think that's the point, given that the video title is what to do with evil thoughts. It's sort of a rorschach test to make you do a double take and realize that your mind (mine as well) was imposing an unnecessarily dirty interpretation of the art.
Odd shaped people and creatures are signs and sumbols of eil and evil things in art.
How did you come to that conclusion?
You seem very young to be a mother superior.
🧡🙏🏼💯💐
Seek misery at all times. To seek after comfort for even a moment is sinful. And don't you dare be sad about it, that's a sin too.
I will assume this is a joke and therefore it is funny. I enjoyed it. I was not remotely sad. Mission accomplished.
@@halleylujah247 Not a joke, just taking all this to it's logical conclusion. Seeking pleasure and avoiding suffering = sinful passion. Therefore you should sleep on rocks, eat unpleasant food (just enough to not starve), and never marry since you might try to have children and that's not okay. You also shouldn't seek to alleviate the suffering of others by this reasoning, because you're depriving them of an opportunity to offer it up.
@@leoncaruthers You are not taking this to its logical conclusion but over shooting the mark. I truly hope you don't think this is true. If you do that's sad. Thats not what Mother was saying and is definitely not what the Church teaches. Leisure, Joy, and Beauty are all parts of our faith.
@@halleylujah247 She never qualifies it at all. It is sinful and subhuman to seek pleasure and avoid pain, and it thus follows that we are to seek pain and avoid pleasure, and anything less is sinful self indulgence. About which we must not be sad, because that too is a sin. Without clarifying and qualifying statements, teaching like this is perfect for inspiring scrupulosity and despair, and there are none here at all.
@@leoncaruthers How is it subhuman? I don't believe you are Catholic and this is just your theory. If so you are wrong. God is good and made us good. He gave us beauty and life so we can enjoy it. There are times of pain and suffering but just as there are seasons, it is not constant. We should not seek to make ourselves miserable. This is not why God created you. I am sorry you have taken such a pessimistic view. Please reconsider.
Thumbnail is a setup
Whadya mean?
For some clarification, I'm not accusing anyone of anything, but weren't some of Evagrius Ponticus teachings deemed heretical? Just as was the case with Origen of Alexandria?
I read he was accused of heresy by some other Fathers like St Jerome, although I also read his influence was still strong on later Fathers in more indirect ways.
Jesus says save up for yourself riches in heaven not worldly riches
Lord bless. No marriage is performed in Buddhism, notably. :))
What a weird thumbnail, can't tell me yall didn't do this on purpose.
I thought the same. I scrolled past it because of the image, but came to it again and read the title.
I'd love this information but I just can't stand the voice fry.
This comment is completely unnecessary and very uncharitable. Please do some soul-searching. I'll pray for you.
I don't find it contrived but rather natural. I agree with the commenter above.
@@MrGoodwell If a person is trying to spread the teaching of Christ via the spoken word, then attention should be paid to the quality of one's voice. Singers must, and so must speakers. It is not uncharitable to tell the person that her voice has what is called 'fry.' It can be eliminated. It is difficult to listen to.
Then mute her voice and put the closed captioning on.
@@leticiavalles632 That might serve me well, but what would serve this good young nun is to read my comment and consult with an knowledgeable advisor on voice work.
Thank you Mother Natalia. This video has been so illuminating for me.
