WARNING

NOT EVERYTHING THAT

CALLS ITSELF ORTHODOX IS

TRULY ORTHODOX


The above warning was given to me when I first met Orthodoxy in 1986. Today [2009] it is even more perilous, even more difficult to find the Royal Path. For one thing there is a far greater abundance of misinformation. And many materials are missing, and other materials are being rapidly rewritten. For another thing there are fewer than ever guides remaining on the Royal Path, especially who speak English. Hopefully this website will be a place where Newcomers to the Faith can keep at least one foot on solid ground, while they are "exploring."

Lost & Found: Missing Map

Upload to Shared Library:
     Version #2 of Blessed Paisius Velichkovsky is uploaded to my Shared Library today January 9th, 2025.

To the existing pdf I added a photo that had been glued onto the inside of the back cover of the original book.  Remember in the earlier years Platina's printing equipment was primitive even by the standard of those days, and they used to glue pictures, actual color icon prints, into the earlier magazines, too.  With time, the glue deteriorates and the icons get lost.  That was the case with the map in Version #1 of the Blessed Paisius book.  The scan came to me from a different source other than my own library.  I'm very grateful— it saves me days of work and allowed me to offer this pdf long before I ever would have had the time to get to scanning my own copy of the book.

This morning I noticed the picture in my copy in my home library, and I wondered if this map was included in the scan uploaded to my Shared Library.  It was not.  I thought this would be a quick fix, just to insert a scan of the map, but after an hour I've tried everything I can think of.  I'm having no luck trying to make the map big enough to fill the page in the pdf.   The resulting map is a huge file, 250 MB, more than the whole book for just that one page.  I give up, the small-sized map will have to do.

Is there anyone who willing able to fix this?  

Here is a jpg of the missing map.  



A pdf of the map can be taken from the thumbnails in Version #2.  Look for the pdf book in my Shared Library, (link in sidebar), look in the folder named: "Lives Saints & Elders"
