Basilian Monasticism 2017 marks the 400th Anniversary of the creation

of the Order of St. Basil the Great. The Ruthenian

(Ukrainian-Byelorussian) Church reaffirmed its reunion

with the Catholic Church in the Union of Brest in 1596.

The monasteries living according to the Rule of St. Basil

the Great and St. Theodore Studite were independent and

had fallen into a state of decline. St. Josaphat Kuntsevich

and Joseph Veniamin Rutsky began the reform of monastic

life in the Holy Trinity Monastery in Vilnius. In 1617 the

individual monasteries united into a single order, the Order

of St. Basil the Great. The Basilian Order strengthened the

Union among the Belarussians and Ukrainians and

helped preserve their religious and national culture from

Polonization, Protestantism and later Russification. The

Basilian Order serves Byzantine Catholics in Central and

Eastern European countries such as Hungary, Romania,

Slovakia, and Ukraine, and North and South (Cont. on pg. 3)

An Election Prayer to Mary

O Most Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of Mercy, at this most critical time, we entrust the United States of America to your loving care. Most Holy Mother, we beg you to reclaim this land for the glory of your Son. Overwhelmed with the burden of the sins of our nation, we cry to you from the depths of our hearts and seek refuge in your motherly protection. Look down with mercy upon us and touch the hearts of our people. Open our minds to the great worth of human life and to the responsibilities that accompany human freedom. Free us from the falsehoods that lead to the evil of abortion and threaten the sanctity of family life. Grant our country the wisdom to proclaim that God’s law is the foundation on which this nation was founded, and that He alone is the True Source of our cherished rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. O Merciful Mother, give us the courage to reject the culture of death and the strength to build a new Culture of Life.

Церкві досвідчених і відданих служителів, на зразок св.

Василія Великого, св. Йосафата, а також інших

василіянських мучеників та ісповідників.

Історія Василіянськoho Чину Василіянські монастирі беруть свій початок від св. Василія Великого (329-379), Єпископа і Вчителя Церкви, одного з найвизначніших Отців Східної Церкви. До сьогодні його Правила (Ширші і Коротші) разом з іншими аскетичними творами становлять основу Конституцій Чину, хочa в понад тисячолітній історії спосіб життя василіянських монахів підлягав певним змінам. До найбільш відомих реформаторів василіянського життя належать: св. Теодор Студит (†760-826), св. Теодосій Печерський (†1074), св. Йосафат Кунцевич (1580-1623) разом з київським митрополитом Йосифом Велямином Рутським (1574-1637). Монаше життя на Україні, в типовій для Сходу формі, своїм корінням сягає перших років християнства. Але, без сумніву, найбільший вплив на розвиток цього життя мали св. Антоній Печерський (†1073) i його послідовник — св. Теодосій Печерський (†1074). Велику роль у формуванні василіянського життя в Київській Митрополії, після відновлення єдності з Католицькою Церквою, відіграли Київський Митрополит Йосиф Велямин Рутський і св. Йосафат Кунцевич, які на початку XVII століття провели грунтовну реформу тогочасного монашого життя, надаючи йому структуру сучасних чинів, впроваджуючи централізацію монастирів. У 1617 р. у Новгородовичах (Білорусія) на І Капітулі ченці п’яти монастирів під проводом митр. Й. В. Рутського об’єдналися й утворили Конгрегацію Пресвятої Трійці. Митрополит надав ченцям свої «Спільні правила св. Василія Великого» та «Партикулярні Правила». На цій І Капітулі укладено «Капітульні Конституції». Так повстав новий об’єднаний Чин під проводом протоархимандрита. Бажанням В. Рутського було через віднову ченців — відновити Східну Церкву. Прикладом святості став св. Йосафат, який у 1623 р. своєю мученицькою кров’ю скріпив і утвердив новозаснований Василіянський Чин.

Monastic life is the result of the Christian Spirit based

on the Evangelical Counsels which were handed down to us

from Jesus Christ Himself. The word 'monk' is derived from

the Greek 'monos' meaning 'single, solitary'. St. Basil the

Great (329-379) organized them into communities living as

the early Christians lived; "All who believed were together

and held all things in common…continuing daily with one

accord in the temple…praising God and being in favor

with all the people," and they "were of one heart and one

soul, and not one of them said that anything he possessed

was his own but they had all things in common." (Acts 2;

44-7, 4; 32) From this text, St. Basil drew his 3 main

principles of religious life which prevail in the Basilian

Order to this day.

First Principle - In order to live a full Christian life and

practice virtues, men should live in a community, forming

one happy, spiritual family. "The common of brethren is

an arena for spiritual combat, a good path of progress, a

continuous practice and exercise of the Lord's

Commandments. This kind of life has the glory of God as

its only aim." Recommending brotherly love as the

characteristic virtue of his community, St Basil quotes

Psalm 132; 1: "Behold how good and how pleasant it is

where brethren dwell together…For there the Lord has

pronounced His blessings and life forever."

Second Principle - To secure order and harmony in his

community, St. Basil formulated a set of rules which he

later arranged into 55 Long Rules and 313 Short Rules.

The Rules advocate moderation in spiritual exercises and

mortification, realizing that "at the tribunal of Christ the

words of Holy Scripture will comfort us." St. Basil based

his Rule on the Bible to be everlasting and timeless as the

Word of God. These Rules have made St. Basil one of the

greatest teachers of spirituality of all times. They were

translated into Latin by Rufinus and in the 6th century were

applied by St. Benedict to Western monasticism. Thus, St.

Basil became the ideologist of religious life in common.

Third Principle - St. Basil's 3rd principle was the

active life for monks to serve the needs of the Church and

the people. Only then could his followers fulfill the basic

laws of charity (Long Rule 3). Although a monk should

live in solitude, "removed from the cares of this

world" (Long Rules 5; 6: Ephesians 2), nevertheless, "as a

soldier of Christ" he should always be on call to conquer

the world for Christ (1st Ascetical Discourse). St. Basil's

conception of a life of solitude is the preparation or the

reconditioning of a monk for dedicated active life. Every

Basilian must be to practice Christian charity with deeds: he

must be ready for all apostolic and pastoral work: he must

dedicate himself to the education and the guidance of youth.

Such was St. Basil's idea of charity in action (Long Rules 3,

42). In his preface to the Long Rules, St. Basil assures us if

these Rules are understood and practiced, they will develop

each monk into "perfect manhood, to the mature measure of

the fullness of Christ." (Ephesians 4; 13)
