One hundred Jesus prayers, “Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, rest the soul of your servant (name),” takes no more than fifteen minutes.
And during the first forty days after death, it would be possible to read even one thousand Jesus prayers
- this is not more than an hour and a half, which is not too much for the salvation of the soul of a loved one.
Elder Charalamby of Dionysius, a disciple of the elder Joseph Hesychast, spoke about the benefits of such work.
“A prayer on a komboskini for a brother, a relative can liberate his soul from hell — prayer has that power, ”he taught his students.
Elder Charalamby himself experienced this, praying with a komboskini for his grandfather.
