St. Seraphim of Sarov, in the world of Prokhor Moshnin, is one of the most revered and beloved Russian saints. Born in the middle of the XVIII century in Kursk, he was already marked by God in childhood, having survived a fall from a bell tower and received healing from his illness by venerating the icon of the Mother of God. At the age of 22, having gone on a pilgrimage to the Kiev Caves Lavra, he received a blessing to become a monk in the Sarov desert, where he spent the rest of his life. Having taken vows with the name Seraphim, the monk began to lead an angelic life, indulging in unceasing prayer and ascetic labors. His exploits became known to people, and many came to him for spiritual advice. One day, robbers who came to the saint's cell beat him, but later he asked not to punish them, demonstrating the power of love. The life tells how a bear came to Seraphim of Sarov from the forest, and the monk fed him. With the blessing of St. Seraphim, the Diveevskaya Monastery was founded, which became one of the most famous Russian women's monasteries. The memory of Seraphim of Sarov is celebrated on January 15 and August 1 according to the new style.
