Osia Maria the Egyptian The loyalty Mary in the early years of her life in Egypt, the times of Emperor Justinian, was a creature uncontrollable, insatiable, corrupt. All she desired was the satisfaction of her fleshly desire without receiving any price for it, except for her personal satisfaction. For this purpose he also traveled with hundreds of other travelers to the pilgrimage of the Holy Cross to Jerusalem. Upon entering the temple however to worship, an unknown force did not allow her to proceed. She then stood before the image of the Virgin and asked her to guide her. With her help she went to the temple and bowed down. In her own words she marched into the desert where she lived forty - seven years, never meeting a man. Burned by the sun, naked, herme of heat and frost, he lived with prayer and repentance. At the same time, a Jerome, the abbas Zoshimas, at God’s command, went to the monastery of St. John the Baptist. According to the rule of the Monastery, monks would have to fight alone in the desert during the period of Forty and return on the Sunday of the Vaians to celebrate the week of Passions. There, in the desert, he met the bizarre form of Osia Maria, who asked him to return to share her with a year later. Great Thursday, and while all the other monks had returned to the Monastery, the aba shared Osia Maria, who left by stepping on the waters of the Jordan River.
