A story about St. Silouan of Mt Athos (+1938):
…toward the end of St. Silouan’s life, someone met him at a large, popular monastery on Mt. Athos and said to him, “What are you doing here in this crowded place? You should be in a cave somewhere.” … Mt. Athos is one of the very few places in the world where you can tell someone that they should be living in a cave, and it is understood as a compliment. St. Silouan then responds to this person, “I do live in a cave. My body is a cave for my soul, and my soul is a cave for the Holy Spirit.”
Perhaps a clue for us trying to live spiritually “in the world.”
