On one of his visits to Russia in 1990, he spent almost half a year at the Holy Trinity Sergius Monastery, where he conducted research at the library and delivered a course of lectures.

We know from Holy Scripture about the Fall and the exile of the first people from Paradise. This tragic event can be understood today from a natural and scientific point of view as part of the "Big Bang" theory that is accepted by modern science as a model of the universe. ...I am often asked: But if our world is not the true world, if it is just a result of the tragic fall away from God's creation, then what should be our attitude toward it? Can it—and should it—be accepted and loved, or should it be rejected as completely evil and the dwelling place of the prince of this world? ..."This" world and "that" world are one and the same, but of a different quality. ...The world is not only interesting, the world is endlessly beautiful and one must love its beauty, its development, its evolution towards perfection and goodness, one must love mankind as well as all of God's lower creatures—everything and everybody—struggling with evil both in oneself and outside.
