		Thus the hegumenos continues the patristic tradition of the desert fathers, but is sagely limited in his exercise of authority.
		For guidance in developing the details of monastic life, the Eastern hegumenos turned to the traditions of the desert, the decisions of councils, the practices of esteemed abbots, and imperial ordinances.

		He was appointed hegumenos (abbot) of the Savior monastery in Constantinople.11 Next he began passionately arguing with the hesychasts accusing them of distorting the dogmas of the Church.
		The main point of the hesychast teaching, in brief, was that by meditating it was possible to see a light, that in their understanding, was the uncreated, i.e., the Divine light, the same light that had shone on Jesus on Mount Tabor.
