Απόσπασμα από ομιλία του Γέροντος Αιμιλιανού Σιμωνοπετρίτου με θέμα την μετάνοια. Την ομιλία την βρήκαμε στο πολύ αξιόλογο ιστολόγιο http://www.agiazoni.gr/ και εκεί ολόκληρη η ομιλία του φωτισμένου Γέροντα έχει ως τίτλο "Αγιος Γρηγόριος ο Παλαμάς".. Εδώ παραθέτουμε μόνο ένα μέρος της πλαισιωμένο με αποσπασματικά βίντεο από το ντοκυμαντερ "ΑΘΩΣ-ΧΙΛΙΑ ΧΡΟΝΙΑ ΣΑΝ ΜΙΑ ΜΕΡΑ" παραγωγής της SWF (1981), που παρουσιάζει την μοναστική ζωή στην Σιμωνόπετρα του Αγίου Όρους.
