Nicholas Cabasilas

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
Nicholas Cabasilas 

Born circa 1320; died circa 1391. Byzantine theologian, philosopher, and scholar-encyclopedist.

In contrast to other exponents of hesychasm, Nicholas Cabasilas provided in his chief work, Life in Christ, a variation of hesychastic ethics that is directed not so much toward monks as toward laymen.
