Coffee: from monastic austerity to the Sultan's palace

Turkish coffee is a standard. Behind these words lies a special roasting, preparation and serving of coffee. The Turks know a lot about this drink, because the tradition of coffee drinking in Turkey is rooted in the distant past. This drink was tasted there in the 16th century.

Reading time: 10 min.

Everyone has their own associations with Turkish coffee. Someone imagines a noisy bazaar, immersed in the aromas of spices and sweets. Away from the hustle and bustle, old men in turbans brew their fragrant drink, carefully, with love. Maybe you imagine the winding streets of the old city and the hidden courtyards of Istanbul. Everyone who looks into such a courtyard will be offered a cup of aromatic tea or coffee . You sit down on a bench, of which there are countless, in front of you they put a stool decorated with mosaics and a cup with a fragrant drink. You can take sweets from the street with you and rest in the shady courtyard. Locals like to exchange news or read the newspaper here. At the exit, you will be asked how many cups you have drunk. How much you say - so much and pay.

Coffee is the elixir of wisdom

Coffee has two paths in Turkey: worldly and spiritual, and which one was passed before is still being argued. According to one of the legends, coffee appeared thanks to the famous Sufi Ali-ben-Omar al-Shadili . He was a philosopher and spiritual teacher. He preached asceticism and increased spirituality. Historians believe that the temple of Moka (Al-Muha) founded by him was the first laboratory for studying the properties of coffee.

Later this drink was used by dervishes in rituals . One of them is the "sema" or dervish dance. The Europeans, when they saw the dance, called them "tops". Everything from the fact that the dervishes are spinning around in white clothes. This is meditation. During such a mystical flight, the dervish turns one hand to the sky, the other to the earth, creating a bridge for the transmission of divine energy. This dance can go on for hours or all night. In order not to fall asleep and to have strength, dervishes often resorted to the invigorating properties of coffee.

Dervishes perform their ritual dance

Coffee not only tones, but also promotes the knowledge of the divine . Therefore, its preparation in Turkey was treated as an important ritual that brings a person closer to God.

Golden recipe

According to another legend, the first coffee lover in Turkey was Suleiman the Magnificent . A cup of fragrant drink was presented to him by Ozdemir Pasha, the governor of Yemen, which was then part of the Ottoman Empire. Suleiman liked the drink so much that since then it has been served in his palace. For some time, coffee was the lot of the sultan's close associates. But as the drink gained popularity, public coffee houses began to appear. The first public coffee houses are believed to have appeared in Turkey .

An interesting fact: in those days there was a law according to which a woman could file for divorce if her husband could not provide her with two or three cups of coffee a day.

To enjoy the drink, the Sultan ordered to organize the position of chief coffee maker. Soon, the wonderful smell of coffee wafted through the Sultan's palace. The Sultan liked the drink so much that the recipe was immortalized in the records, and the head coffee maker was given a piece of gold the size of a fist.

Real Turkish coffee is made only in a Turkish coffee roaster

To make Turkish coffee, the Turkish coffee must be proportionate to the number of servings. In Turkey itself, it is most often cooked in small vessels with a capacity of 1-2 servings. For cooking, you need to use purified water - without salts and impurities. X Cold water is poured into the pot . If you like a sweet drink, you can add sugar or other spices: ginger and cinnamon. Coffee is poured into hot water already (not boiling) . After the coffee has been poured, it must be carefully placed so that the grains dissolve.

As the foam rises, the cezve is removed, the foam is laid out in cups and this is repeated 3-6 times. After the last removal, the drink is poured into cups.

Treat yourself to a drink of Turkish philosophers and sultans!

Part 31. Cradle of monasticism | Motherhood

The birthplace of monasticism is Egypt, where the first hermits, or hermits, appeared already in the 2nd century, laying down the basic principles of monastic life.

The founder and ideologist of hermit monasticism is considered to be Anthony the Great, who from the 270s became a hermit in the Thebadian desert, and then around 313 moved to the Red Sea, where a monastic community appeared around him.

At the beginning of the 4th century Pachomius the Great founded the first cenobitic monastery (kinovia). The Monk Pachomius connected the disparate dwellings of the hermits, enclosed the community with a wall, and drew up for the monks the rules of discipline and the regime of the day, based on the even alternation of labor and prayer. For his monastery, Pachomius wrote the first monastic charter (318).

From this period cenobitic monasticism begins to supplant hermitism and spreads from the territory of Egypt through Palestine (Euthymius Lavra, Lavra of Savva the Sanctified) to Constantinople.

Lavra of Savva the Sanctified

Saint Savva the Sanctified was born in the 5th century, in Cappadocia, into the pious Christian family of John and Sophia. When the boy was eight years old, he entered the monastery, soon learned to read and studied the Holy Scriptures well. In vain did the parents persuade Saint Sava to return to the world and enter into marriage.

The Monk Savva was such a zealous monk that very early he succeeded in deeds and virtues, which others need long decades to achieve. At the age of 17, he took monastic vows and was soon awarded the gift of miracles from the Lord. At the age of 30, he received a blessing to asceticize in seclusion, leaving the cave only on Saturday to participate in Divine services and eat; and then not leave the shutter at all for five years. His mentor, the Monk Euthymius the Great, called him an old man and carefully brought him up in the highest monastic virtues.

When the Monk Euthymius departed to the Lord (+ 473), Saint Sava settled in a cave in the valley of the Kidron stream, in the Judean Desert, 14 km from Jerusalem, east of the monastery of Theodosius the Great. A few years later, disciples began to gather at St. Savva - everyone who wanted a monastic life. This is how the Great Lavra arose.

Many miracles were revealed through the prayers of St. Savva: a spring gushed in the middle of the Lavra, heavy rain fell during a drought, healings of the sick and possessed took place.

On the territory of the Lavra rest the incorrupt relics of its founder, St. Savva the Sanctified, from which numerous healings occur, especially for cancer patients. A holy spring beats in the monastery, the water of which is used only for drinking and is given as a blessing to all pilgrims. For every need, cisterns were built to collect rainwater. Within the walls of the monastery grows a date palm planted by the Monk Savva himself, whose leaves and fruits have a miraculous effect in cases of infertility.

Lavra is the largest of the three Orthodox monasteries currently operating in the Judean Desert. Its charter, introduced by the founder, is observed even today and is considered the strictest of the charters of all Palestinian Orthodox monasteries. The abbot of the monastery is the Patriarch of Jerusalem himself, but the hegumen appointed by the Patriarch manages all its daily affairs.

No woman was ever allowed on the territory of the monastery. When his own mother came to visit the monk, he arranged for her to spend the night outside the walls of the monastery. The so-called "Women's Tower" now stands at this place, where the mothers and sisters of the monks stopped when they came to see them.

Saint Savva never ate apples. Once, in his youth, he really wanted to eat an apple, but remembering that it was through this fruit that the tempter seduced the first person, the monk threw him to the ground and trampled, thereby defeating the gluttonous thought. In memory of this, the monks of the Lavra do not eat apples even now.

In the Lavra of St. Savva they do not use electricity and live according to the biblical time calculation. The participation of the monks of the Lavra is obligatory for the celebration of the Litany of the Holy Fire in the Church of the Holy Sepulcher.

The monastery of St. Sava became the center of Orthodox monastic life, comparable in spiritual significance to the monasteries of Athos and Sinai. More than twenty saints revered by the Orthodox Church lived, prayed and grew spiritually in the monastery, among them the great theologian and father of the Church, St. John of Damascus. The biographer and historian of the monastic movement Cyril of Scythopol, who died around 560, is also buried in the monastery. Over the centuries, the Lavra received within its walls many pilgrims and ascetics from the Slavic lands - the first Russian pilgrim, Abbot Daniel, who spent a year and a half in Palestine, lived here in 1106-1107, here St. Savva of Serbia comprehended the "foundations of the art of holiness" in 1226, here St. Theophan the Recluse translated ancient books in 1848-1854.

Lavra of St. Theodosius the Great

The Monk Theodosius the Great was born in the 5th century in Cappadocia from pious parents. Striving for a hermit life, Saint Theodosius settled in Palestine in a deserted cave, in which, according to legend, three wise men spent the night, who came to bow to the Born Savior of the world. In it he lived for 30 years in great abstinence and unceasing prayer. Gradually, those wishing to live under his guidance began to flock to the ascetic. When the cave no longer accommodated the assembled monks, the Monk Theodosius began to pray that the Lord Himself would indicate a place for the monastery. Taking with him a censer with cold coals, the monk went through the desert. In one place suddenly the coals flared up and incense burned. Here the monk founded the first cenobitic monastery, or Lavra, according to the rule of St. Basil the Great (+ 379: January 1 commemoration).

Soon the Lavra of St. Theodosius became famous, and up to 700 monks gathered there. According to the testament of St. Theodosius, Lavra served her neighbors, helping all the poor and giving shelter to wanderers.

The Monk Theodosius was extraordinarily merciful. Once, when there was a famine in Palestine, and a lot of people gathered at the monastery, the monk ordered everyone to be allowed into the fence. The disciples were embarrassed, knowing that the monastery did not have the opportunity to feed all those who came. But when they entered the bakery, they saw that, through the prayers of the abba, it was filled with bread. And such a miracle was repeated every time the Monk Theodosius wanted to help the needy.

In the monastery, the monk arranged hospices, separate hospitals for monks and laity, as well as shelters for the elderly. In view of the fact that people from different countries had gathered in the Lavra, the monk arranged Divine services in different languages - Greek, Georgian and Armenian. For the communion of the Holy Mysteries, everyone gathered in a large church, where Divine services were performed in Greek.

The Monk Theodosius the Great reposed in the year 529, at the age of 105. The body of the saint was honorably buried in the cave in which he lived at the beginning of his ascetic labor.

Now the Greek Orthodox monastery of St. Theodosius the Great is located 11 km east of Bethlehem. The main temple is of modern construction.

There is an ancient cave on the territory of the monastery. Above the cave are the remains of a temple built before the 6th century. To the left of the stairs, when descending into the cave, the relics of the martyrs who suffered from the Persians in 614 are kept. Theodosius, Theodota, mother of Sts. Cosmas and Damian, Sophia, mother of St. Savva the Sanctified. Here the relics of St. Euphrosyne of Polotsk, who are now in Polotsk. At the very end of the cave is the cave of the Magi, where they stopped on the way back. In the cave there is a revered temple icon of the Burial of St. Theodosius the Great. The relics themselves Theodosius are kept in the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. In the main temple of the monastery there is an icon of St. Theodosius the Great in a marble casket, icons of St. Sergius and Rev. Euphrosyne of Polotsk.

St. Gerasim of Jordan

The monastery of St. Gerasim of Jordan, one of the oldest in the Judean Desert, was founded in 455. It is located a few kilometers from the Jordan River and from the ancient city of Jericho.

The Monk Gerasim, like Saints Sava and Theodosius, was a native of Cappadocia, and also from his youth embarked on the path of monastic service to God. He labored in the Thebaid desert in Egypt, and then came to Palestine and settled in the Jordanian desert. Here the Monk Gerasim built a monastery, the charter of which was distinguished by great severity. The rector himself showed the brethren a wonderful example of perfect asceticism and abstinence. Five days a week the hermits spent in solitude and complete silence. While praying, they wove baskets from date palm branches. The hermits had nothing but shabby clothes and a wicker bedding on which they slept. Their spiritual father, the Monk Gerasimus, forbade them, leaving the cell, to close the door, so that anyone could enter and take what he liked.

They ate bread with water and dates. In the cells it was not allowed to cook and even make a fire - so that it would not even occur to them to cook something. Once, several monks asked to be allowed to read by candlelight at night and make a fire - to warm the water. Saint Gerasim answered: "If you want to make a fire, live in a monastery with beginners, and I will not tolerate this in hermit cells." The Monk Gerasimus himself did not eat anything during the entire Great Lent until Easter itself, and only by communion of the Divine Mysteries did he strengthen his body and soul.

A remarkable episode from the life of Saint Gerasim is well known. One day the ascetic met a wounded lion in the desert and cured him. In gratitude, the lion began to serve the elder as a pet until his death, after which he himself died on the grave of the elder and was buried near the tomb of the saint. The Monk Gerasimus peacefully departed to the Lord in the year 451.0031

Venerable Mary of Egypt and Pelagia of Antioch

But not only men labored in the monastic life in the Holy Land. Not far from the monastery of St. Gerasim, beyond the Jordan, in the boundless desert, St. Mary of Egypt found shelter. The place of her burial is located on the territory of a neighboring state, Jordan.

Another well-known saint, St. Pelagia, labored near Jerusalem, on the Mount of Olives. She was from Antioch in Syria, and in her youth she led a very promiscuous life. For luxurious clothes and many expensive jewelry, which she loved to flaunt, she was nicknamed "Margarita", that is, "pearl". Bishop Nonn of Heliopol, who once arrived in Antioch for a council of bishops, led her to repentance and the Christian faith. Through the prayers of the wise saint, Pelagia came to a Christian church, heard the bishop's sermon, realized all the sinfulness of her life, repented and was baptized. Then she brought everything she had to Bishop Nonnus, who ordered that the good be distributed to the poor. After some time, Pelagia, having changed into men's clothes and taking with her the hair shirt and cassock donated by Bishop Nonnus, left Antioch forever for Jerusalem. Here everyone took her for a young man who wished to become a monk. A monk with a male name Pelagius made himself a cell on the Mount of Olives, near the place of the Ascension of the Lord. The hermit Pelagius, shutting himself in a deep cave, began to lead a severe monastic life in it in repentance, fasting and prayer. Having reached high spiritual gifts after several years, Monk Pelagius ended his earthly life in 457. And only at the hour of the burial, the clergy and the people learned that the deceased monk was a woman who labored in a male form.
