Dorotheas of Gaza's Wisdom on Importance of Self-examen and Self-accusation

Joyful Christian Hermit discusses and shares Dorotheas of Gaza's 6th c. discourse on how important it is to examine what others say to us be it critical or in general intending to correct us or help us improve, or even if we think it is unkind. Do not ignore but examine and accuse oneself first, analyze, pray for wisdom and guidance, be utterly honest with oneself. Why i tis important to even accuse oneself of the flaw or issue first while we are examining in earnest to determine if the statements or critical advice or correction is accurate and by which we can improve ourselves. Always be seeking to be worthy of the holy, narrow path way of the spiritual life of following Jesus Christ in purity and truth, goodness and beauty.
