The Jesus Prayer: An Orthodox Tradition is a historical review of the prayer beginning with its origins in the 5th century up through modern times. Differing views of the prayer through history are explored (mind centered versus heart centered) as exposure spreads through Greece, Russia, and more recently the United States. An understanding of the prayer from an Eastern Orthodox perspective is contrasted with that of the West.
