About this listen
Written at Sinai near the beginning of the seventh century, The Ladder of Divine Ascent maps the inner life in thirty steps. Saint John Climacus begins with renunciation and obedience, passes through grief, anger, despondency, vainglory, pride, and discernment, and rises toward stillness, prayer, dispassion, faith, hope, and love.
John writes for monks, yet his knowledge of attention and self-deception reaches far beyond the monastery. He observes how a virtue can hide a passion, how speech scatters the mind, how remembrance of death clarifies desire, and how humility frees a person from the need to appear righteous. His sayings are compact, exacting, and often startlingly psychological.
This volume offers a complete new English translation made directly from the public-domain Greek text printed in Patrologia Graeca 88. It preserves the full sequence of the thirty steps in clear, restrained prose while retaining the rigor and intensity of the original.
This audiobook is narrated with a digital (AI) voice.
