    I do not comment very often to CZcams videos, however I felt a pull to do so today. As a practicing Sikh, I wanted to show love to my orthodox Christian brothers at Trisagion Films. Each of these, beautiful souls documented in the 'Chronicles of the Desert' is truly inspiring. From the imagery to the narration, it is so meticulously crafted so the viewer may experience a yearning for the Lord. We are living in a material world that is turning its back on God, it is so refreshing to see the effort of Trisagion Films, which is trying to connect them back to God. Thank you kindly, may you continue your selfless service in a steadfast manner!

    I find it so beautiful the way that saints relate to nature and animals. ❤ It's so sad that the importance of being kind to animals and taking care of the earth that God gave us is so often overlooked. We may be uniquely created in His image and likeness, but we are all His creation. Thank you for another beautiful video! 🙏☦

    It will not be possible for humans to have peace on earth as long as we use and abuse fellow animals. Just think - if people are at peace in heart and mind, who would be willing to kill a fellow being? We now know, that animal-based foods ruin our health. This was a beautiful story. Thanks for sharing.

      To think that even the lion was eating lentils, amazing! More than ever I feel that following a plant based diet is the right thing to do. The lives of the saints and holy men of God, so beautiful and inspiring, it really moved me to tears.

    • @evkoum
      @evkoum Před 3 měsíci

    We read about saints, who, falsely accused, quietly, and humbly endure criticism or a punishment until the Lord reveals their innocence, and not only restores them to their former place or higher, but also reveals their humility and saintliness..
    And here the lion fulfills that saintly role..
    Oh, how wonderful..
    What all such stories also point to is our longing to be restored to Paradise and the relationship that Adam and Eve had at first with the animals in the Garden..
