They look so determined..fishing for pearls must take a lot of patience..🤍
Etonnant j'ignorais cette histoire, merci de nous la faire connaitre. Cet exercice spirituel devait en faire des centenaires.
Historical background:
In the Tobolsk monastery, the nuns were engaged in freshwater pearl fishing in the Tunguska River from mid-May to September, when the water was open. According to historical data, one nun could harvest approximately 150-200 grams of pearls per season.
To decorate one ceremonial vestment of a priest in the rank of archbishop, it usually required about 200-300 grams of freshwater pearls. Thus, one nun could harvest a sufficient amount of pearls to decorate one ceremonial vestment of a priest during one or two seasons.
The process of pearl fishing is not only a practical activity but also a spiritual one, symbolizing the search for hidden treasures within oneself. The novices learn patience, concentration, and the importance of working together as a team. As they delicately extract the pearls from the mussels, they are reminded of the beauty that can be found in the most unexpected places.
This unique tradition connects the novices to the natural world and instills in them a sense of reverence for the gifts of the earth. The act of fishing for river pearls in the Podkamennaya Tunguska River is not just a task but a sacred ritual that binds them to the ancient roots of their monastery and the wisdom of their predecessors🙏🏻
