1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,800 Speaker 1: Jarm Mission with Jonesy and Amanda. Now I'm going to 2 00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:05,840 Speaker 1: tell you this is a story from Greece about a 3 00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:09,360 Speaker 1: monk who lived he's just passed away. He lived for 4 00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:13,920 Speaker 1: eighty two years without ever seeing a single woman. What 5 00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:19,280 Speaker 1: about his mother, Well, his mother died during birth, so 6 00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:23,400 Speaker 1: he never saw her and he was then taken by 7 00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:27,080 Speaker 1: some Orthodox monks and raised in a monastery a top 8 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:30,520 Speaker 1: mount Athos. He was raised and tutored there, spent his 9 00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,400 Speaker 1: life in the service of the monastery. And this monastery 10 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:37,720 Speaker 1: had a very strict policy against allowing women to explore 11 00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:41,839 Speaker 1: the area or the monasteries. This law was instigated in 12 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:45,040 Speaker 1: the year of ten forty six by the Byzantine emperor 13 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:49,640 Speaker 1: Constantine Monomachos, and it prohibited the entry of women to 14 00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 1: the top of the mountain. The law was placed so 15 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 1: that men living in the many monasteries could spend their 16 00:00:54,800 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 1: lives in celibacy and peace. The monks were any the 17 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:03,920 Speaker 1: presence of women alters their path towards celibacy and ultimately 18 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:08,440 Speaker 1: spiritual enlightenment. He never saw an automobile, a movie, or 19 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,920 Speaker 1: an aeroplane, so when he passed away at the age 20 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 1: of eighty two, the newspaper clipping said he died without 21 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 1: ever seeing a single woman, so showy passed away. He 22 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:19,680 Speaker 1: was stated to appear in the next season of Maths. 23 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,760 Speaker 1: That the experts lining him up with someone who's had 24 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:31,039 Speaker 1: eighteen million relationships, alve of celibacy and peace. I've got celibacy, 25 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 1: but I've got no peace. Jonesy and Amanda's Nation
