What is the evil spirit of acedia?
The demon of acedia (as witnessed in Evagrius's descriptions of the monk's life) manifested itself in both temporal and spatial dimensions. Among other things, there was an interior instability, exaggerated concern for physical health, neglect in observing the monastic rule, and discouragement.
