Ua hānauʻo Seraphim o Sarov ma lalo o ka inoaʻo Prokhor, ma kekahiʻohana kalepa ma Kursk. I kona wā'ōpio, ua hoʻomaka kona makuakāne e kūkulu i ka halepuleʻo Kursk, akā ua makeʻo ia ma mua o ka hikiʻana iā ia ke hoʻopau i ka hana. Ua kūkulu ka makuahine o Prokhor i ke kūkulu, he wahine hoʻomanaha nui, a maʻaneʻi me ke keikikāne kahi hana mua. Ma hope o kona hāʻuleʻana mai ka hale paka pua i ka wā e hele ai i ka hana me kona makuahine, uaʻikeʻo ia ma ka lepo, palekana a maikaʻi.
Ma hope o kēia hana, ua hāʻawi nui ke keiki i kona manawa i ka Heluhelu Hemolele, ai ka 17 o kona mau makahiki i hoʻoholo ai e hoʻokauwā na ke Akua. Ua hōʻoia ka makuahine i ka kohoʻana o kāna keiki a ua pōmaikaʻiʻo ia ma ke ala i ka Kiev-Pechersk Lavra. Mai laila mai, ua hoʻounaʻiaʻo Prokhor i ka wao akuaʻo Sarov, kahi i noho aiʻo ia i nā makahiki he nui, a ma hope iho ua loaʻa iā ia ka inoa - Seraphim o Sarov.
A laila ua nui nā pule pule ma ka pūpū mehameha, a laila, 25 mau makahiki ma hope mai,ʻikeʻia akula ka poʻe haipule iā ia, a kauoha iā ia e haʻalele i ka pani puka a loaʻa nā kānaka - nā maʻi a nāwaliwali.
Pēlā i hoʻomaka ai e hana i nā hana mana e like me nā pule a Seraphim o Sarov - ho'ōla mai nā maʻiʻeha.
Nā hana mana o Seraphim o Sarov
ʻO ka mea i heleʻole mai i Serapima, ua ho'ōlaʻo ia i nā mea a pau me ka wai kupaianaha o kona punahele. Ua hele mai kekahi wahine iā ia i hoʻokahi lā, no laila ua maʻiʻoleʻo ia i ka maʻi i hikiʻole iā ia keʻai i kaʻai i hoʻolakoʻia ma ka hoʻokēʻaiʻana. Ua kauohaʻo Seraphim iā ia e holoi i ka wai o kona punawai, a ua hala ka maʻi.
Aia kekahi moʻolelo kaulana i ka ho'ōlaʻana i ka wahine maʻi maʻi. Ua heleʻo ia i kona hale mōneka no nā lāʻelua, i ka wā e noho aiʻo ia ma kahi monastery, ua aʻoʻiaʻo ia e make. Akā, i kona hōʻeaʻana i Seraphim, uaʻaeʻo ia iā ia ma mua, holoiʻo ia iā ia iho me kahi kāwele, a lawe mailaʻo ia me ia i makana, a kauoha iā ia e hele mai i ka lāʻapōpō. I kekahi lā aʻe, hāʻawiʻo ia iā ia i moku e huki wai mai ka pūnāwai a holoi. I ka hōʻeaʻana i ka hōkele,ʻo ka wahine, me ka hōʻoleʻana i nā kauka, holoiʻo ia i ka wai a ho'ōla loaʻia.
ʻO ka meaʻoiaʻiʻo,ʻo Saint Seraphim o Sarov i ho'ōlaʻia,ʻaʻole i ka wai wale nō, akā, i ka pule. ʻAʻole hiki i ka poʻe ola ke ho'ōla iā lākou iho, akā ke pule nei lākou me ko lākou mau hewa halaʻole no ka poʻe maʻi a keʻike nei ke Akua i kā lākou noi.
Ma hope iho, uaʻikeʻia ka pule pule o Seraphim o Sarov, kahi e hoʻopakele ai i nā haneli a me nā mano o ka poʻe ma hope o kona makeʻana. ʻOiai,ʻo ka pule e pule mau ana no mākou i mua o ke Akua.
Ma hope o kona makeʻana, ho'ōla mau ka punawai kupaianaha. I ka hoʻounaʻana o ka makuahine o kāna keiki i laila, aʻo ka mea no ka nui o nā makahiki i hōʻeha i ka lāʻauʻaʻa lāʻau. Ua noi aku kona makuahine iā ia e hele ma laila me kāna wahine a mareʻia ma Diveevsky Monastery. Pēlā lākou i hana ai, akā,ʻaʻole i hāʻule ke maʻi.
Iʻekolu mau makahiki ma hope mai, ua hele aku kahi kanaka e hilinaʻi ponoʻole ana i nā lāʻau lapaʻau, ka waiʻona a me ka paka, i ka hale mōneka no kona makemake pono'ī. Hoʻokoluʻo ia i komo i loko o ka punawai kapu, a i ka minute koke iho, uaʻikeʻo ia ua kaʻawale kaʻeleʻele a pau mai ka puʻuwai aku. I kēlā manawa ua olaʻo ia a ua liloʻo ia i kanaka hoʻohālike pono.
ʻO ka pule no ka maleʻana
ʻO Saraphim o Sarov kahi i'ōleloʻia ma nā pule no ka maleʻana. Ua manaʻoʻiaʻo ia he mea kōkua i ka male ma hope loa, no laila inā he 30, 40 aʻoi aʻe paha,ʻo Seraphim o Sarov e kōkua i ka loaʻaʻana o kāna kāne pono.
I mea e heluheluʻia ai ka pule iā Saraphim o Sarov, e heluheluʻia ma ka wai. E lawe i hoʻokahi pāpaʻa o ka wai (ola maikaʻi, puna), e hoʻomālamalama i ke kukui ma ka papaʻaina, e kau i ka hōʻailona o Saint Seraphima i mua o kou alo a heluhelu i ka paukū o ka pule. E pau ka wai i loko, e pīpī i kahi lumi a me kahi moena.
Eia kekahi,ʻo ka pule a ka makuahine no ka maleʻana o kāna kaikamahine iā Seraphim o Sarov e hana nui loa ana. No ka Akua,ʻaʻohe mea'ē aʻe iʻoi aku ka ikaika a me kaʻoiaʻiʻo i nā'ōlelo i piha i ke aloha nui no kā lākou keiki.
ʻO ka pule "ʻO nā mea aloha a pau"
I ka makahiki 1928, ua hanaʻia kahi hana mana i kahiʻelemakule. Ma ka moeʻuhane, uaʻikeʻiaʻo Serafim o Sarov iā ia a kau i ka pule aloha lokomaikaʻi - ka pule i Theotokos. Ua hoʻoweliweliʻia kaʻelemakule i ka hopuʻia (ma ia mau makahiki, ua hoʻokaumahaʻia kaʻekalesia), a ua'ōlelo mai ka Mea Hemolele iā ia e kākau i kahi pule a hele pū me ia ma nā lehelehe. E kōkua iā ia e ola ai iā ia a me ka hale pule.
I kekahi lā aʻe, ua hopuʻia a he mau makahiki he nui o nā pūʻali, i nā makahiki 18 a pau i pule mau aiʻoʻEne i ka Theotokos.
ʻO ka pule no ka maleʻana
ʻO ka pule no ka maleʻana o ke kaikamahine
ʻO ka pule "ʻO nā mea aloha a pau"
