A new ascetical exercise?

In the presence of men who have committed their lives to Greek Orthodox monasticism, Lagos tied a babushka under her chin and wore a long skirt. There must not be any distractions.

I would think it would be hard to tie a babushka under the chin but if you can do it you definitely deserve a place in heaven!

Further, since when do monks devote themselves to "Greek Orthodox monasticism" and not Jesus the Christ?

oh i HATE it when they call headscarves "babushkas". it's one of my pet peeves. up there with when people confuse the immaculate conception with the incarnation.
