NOTE: This program does not represent any Church jurisdiction, or any Hierarch. It is intended as a presentation only of the opinions of those who appeared in the program. - The Wuhan Flu virus has seriously infringed upon the rights and freedoms of people everywhere, especially the right to assemble in Church. The Wuhan Flu has caused a pandemic of irrational fear, and panic. This irrational fear has infected many of the Faithful of the Orthodox Church. Sadly, many modernist Orthodox Hierarchs have even succumbed to this fear, and doubt the Holiness of their own Mysteries. How should Orthodox Christians deal with this irrational behavior that they are surrounded with, and are even infected with? Should they revise their Faith Praxis, as Archbishop Elpidophoros of America is suggesting, or as the OCA has done?

Orthodox Iconographer Paul Azkoul explains...

Vincent Niemann reads from "Orthodox Psychotherapy", a book by Metropolitan Hierotheos Vlachos of Naupaktos. The term "Orthodox Psychotherapy" does not refer to specific cases of people suffering from the psychological problems of some neurosis. Rather it refers to all people. According to Orthodox Tradition, after Adam's fall man became ill, and his "nous" was darkened and it lost communion with God. Death entered into the person's being and caused many anthropological, social, even ecological problems. In the tragedy of his fall man maintained the image of God within him but lost the likeness of God because his communion with God was disrupted. However the incarnation of Christ and the work of the Church aim at enabling the person to attain to the likeness of God, that is to reestablish communion with God. This passageway from a fallen state to a divinized state is actually the healing of the person, because it is connected with his return from a state of being contrary to nature, to that of a state that is according to nature and even above nature. By adhering to Orthodox therapeutic treatment as conceived by the Holy Fathers of the Church man can cope successfully with his thoughts (logismoi) and thus solve his problems completely and comprehensively.
