Prayer of St. Ephraim the Syrian: "When we
make metanias, the prostrations, to stop and think about what the
prostration actually means. Remember, this is not just some kind of
calisthenics, and it’s not just a kowtow to show our humility; it’s a
type of the death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ, a type of
our dying to sin to rise to life.”
--- Archbishop Lazar (Puhalo), Orthodox Church in America
