Miraculous icon The Mother of God, called “The All-Tsarina” (in Greek – “Pantanassa”), is located on Holy Mount Athos in Greece. She resides in the Vatopedi Monastery, in the cathedral church of the monastery, to the left of the royal doors. This icon is small in size. The time of its writing dates back to the 17th century.
The icon depicts the Most Pure Virgin in a scarlet robe, seated on the royal throne. In Her arms is the Child of God with a scroll in his left hand and blessing with his right hand. With her right hand, the Mother of God points to Her Royal Son as the Savior of all people. In the background are two angels who reverently overshadow the Most Pure Virgin with their wings.

This icon belongs to the Panahranta iconographic type, which translated from Greek means “Most Immaculate”, “Most Pure”. The All-Merciful is the second name for icons of the Mother of God of this type. A common feature Such icons are that the Mother of God is depicted seated on a throne with the Child Christ on her knees. The throne symbolizes the royal grandeur and glory of the Mother of God, the most perfect of all those born on earth.

In the 20th century, the famous Athonite elder Joseph the Hesychast blessed his disciples with the image of “Pantanassa”. He conveyed to his contemporaries the ancient legend about this icon.

One day a strange man approached the icon and began muttering something inaudibly. At that moment, the face of the Mother of God shone with a wondrous light, and an invisible force threw the young man to the floor. In fear, he ran out of the temple and with tears confessed to the elders that he had led a sinful life and was engaged in witchcraft and magic. Thus, the Most Holy Theotokos revealed a miracle from Her image, turned the young man away from wickedness and set him on the path of repentance. The miraculous intervention of the Mother of God convinced him to change his life and stay on Mount Athos.
This was the first manifestation of the miraculous power of the icon of the Mother of God “The All-Tsarina”; later they began to notice that the icon had a beneficial effect on patients with various tumors, including malignant ones, as they are called in modern world. Not many people know that the disease cancer has ancient history. The name “cancer” comes from the term “carcinoma” introduced by Hippocrates, formed from two Greek words: “crab” and “tumor”. Hippocrates called the tumor carcinoma because it looks like a crab. The disease was first described in an Egyptian papyrus around 1600 BC. e.. The papyrus talks about several forms of cancer and reports that there is no cure for this disease. Already in the 1st century BC. Roman physician Aulus Cornelius Celsus suggested early stage treat cancer by removing the tumor, and in later stages - not treat it at all.

It cannot be said that over the past 2000 years, doctors have made any particular progress in the fight against this disease, which affects everyone every year. larger number of people. Now, as before, this disease is considered incurable, and all cancer patients hope only for a miracle. It must be admitted that cases of miraculous healing do occur, many of them, perhaps all, are associated with fervent prayerful appeal to the Savior and the Mother of God. Therefore, when in the 17th century the miraculous power of the icon of the Mother of God “The All-Tsarina” in curing cancer was discovered, exact lists began to be made from the icon for other monasteries. Gradually, the icon became known throughout the world as a healer of cancer, and to this day the image of the Mother of God “The All-Tsarina” has the grace to heal the most terrible of diseases of modern humanity. The very name of the icon, All-Mistress, All-Mistress, speaks of its special, all-encompassing power. This image of the Mother of God has the most powerful healing principle.

In 1995, Russians also had the opportunity to bow before the miraculous image in order to directly before the face of the Mother of God turn to the All-Tsarina with a request for deliverance from many incurable diseases, and first of all, from cancer, which is called the plague of the 20th century, and which does not spare small children , neither young men nor old men.

At the request of the Community of Mercy of St. righteous John The abbot of the Vatopedi Monastery, Archimandrite Ephraim, blessed the Kronstadt Children's Oncology Center on the Kashirskoye Highway to make a copy of the Athonite miraculous icon of the Mother of God “The All-Tsarina.” Exact copy The icon, painted in compliance with the canon, with prayers and solemn services, appeared to the unfortunate children.

And miracles began. The condition of the children improved significantly, which could not be explained solely by the use of medicines. A few months later, on the feast of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the icon of the Mother of God “The Tsarina of All” began to stream myrrh, several large drops of myrrh appeared on it, and an amazing fragrance filled everything around. On the Feast of the Entry of the Most Holy Theotokos into the Temple, the flow of myrrh was repeated once again. The first miracle revealed by the All-Tsaritsa in Russia is called healing young man, who suffered from drug addiction for many years. Since then, parents have turned to the Mother of God in front of the “Vsetsaritsa” icon to pray for their children who are addicted to drugs and alcohol.

Needless to say, the news about the amazing icon spread throughout Moscow with lightning speed. The miraculous image was transferred to the Church of All Saints of the former Novo-Alekseevsky Monastery, which is located in Krasnoselsky Lane, not far from the Krasnoselskaya metro station; the image of the “All-Tsarina” is regularly brought back to the oncology center for prayer services.

To the left of the Royal Doors is the Icon of the Mother of God “The Tsaritsa”


After some time, a Church Slavonic version of the akathist to the Mother of God in honor of Her icon “The Tsaritsa” was created, different from the Greek. Every Sunday in the Church of All Saints at 16.30 (and if a great holiday falls on Monday - at 15.00) prayers are held with the reading of an akathist to the Mother of God and the blessing of oil for anointing all those who suffer, and not only from oncological diseases. The chronicle of healing is constantly updated with more and more new evidence of miraculous help for those who no longer expected to receive it from earthly doctors. There are stories here about old people and babies, on behalf of women and men, about healing in the late stages of cancer and about removing suspicion of it, about recovery from fatal diseases and from those that bring a lot of suffering, but are not fatal and about much, much more. Grateful people not only leave their stories in the book, but also bring all kinds of gifts to the shrine.

For example, in 2002, one person suffered a hypertensive crisis. After discharge, on the advice of his relatives, he went for a brain tomography. The examination showed that after frequent pressure surges, a tumor had formed in the brain. There was only one solution - surgery. Before undergoing surgery, this man went to the monastery for a blessing, and there his wife ordered a prayer service for the “All-Tsarina” icon with the blessing of water. While in the hospital, he constantly prayed to the All-Tsarina for recovery and constantly drank holy water, which he took after the prayer service. The hospital did another follow-up examination, which confirmed healing from a serious illness.

Today this list, which is located in the Church of All Saints in Krasnoye Selo, is no longer the only one in Russia. In 1997, another miraculous copy of the icon of the Mother of God “Vsetsaritsa” appeared in Moscow, which is located in the Novospassky Monastery (Moscow, Krestyanskaya Square, 10, metro station “Proletarskaya”). This list was specially prepared at the Vatopedi Monastery and brought to Russia. He is revered as miraculous and myrrh-streaming. Here, too, a book is kept in which all miracles occurring from the shrine are recorded. Prayer chants are performed before him daily, and in Sundays prayer services with blessing of water are served.

Vladychny Convent (Moscow region, city of Serpukhov). This icon streamed myrrh more than 30 times. 2 cases of healing from cancer have been documented. At the monastery, an akathist is read daily before the miraculous image of the Mother of God, during which the names of people suffering from various ailments are remembered.

The Mother of God, who lived her earthly life and knew human needs well, did not leave without Her protection the people for whom the blood of Her beloved Son Jesus Christ was shed on Calvary.

The Holy Virgin Mary reveals herself to people in images, which are then embodied in saving icons.

The Yaroslavl region, where the “Tolgskaya” icon of the Mother of God appeared, has not been forgotten by God’s mercy.

Image born in fire

It was August, 1314. According to the legend of the elders, Bishop Prokhor of Rostov traveled around the lands of the Belozersky borders entrusted to him, decided to go down the Sheksna River, and then along the Volga to visit the glorious city of Yaroslavl.

Only 7 versts remained for the saint to reach Yaroslavl, when night fell, which became the reason for the stop. The right bank of the Volga was chosen as the place to spend the night, or rather a piece of land near which the Tolga River flowed into the Volga.

It was midnight when the place where they spent the night was illuminated by the brightest light emanating from a column of fire. The glow spread from the opposite bank, illuminating a bridge that had come from nowhere. Heavenly power attracted the Elder to the pillar, the light of which emitted the image of the Most Holy Theotokos with the Child. The bishop walked towards them across the fiery bridge.

Often God himself reveals himself to people in the form of an unburnt fire, as was the case with Moses when he saw an unburnt bush.

Before the miraculous face of the Virgin Mary with the Child, Bishop Prokhor fell to his knees and spent the rest of the night in prayer.

Upon returning to the campsite, after conducting the morning service, the saint discovered that his staff remained near the pillar of fire.

The sent servants quickly not only found the abandoned staff, but also discovered an icon of the Mother of God near the thickets, which they reported to the bishop. Saint Prokhor immediately recognized his night vision. The bishop himself and all the people accompanying him knelt down, fervently praying, glorifying God, giving Him praise for the miraculous gift.

The divine power of the icon of the Mother of God filled the builders who arrived from Yaroslavl. In one day they erected a temple, which was consecrated that evening. At the end of the service, all the sick were healed.

For almost 6 centuries there was a monastery near Togly, a monastery near it. All this time, the path of the suffering, the sick, who wanted to receive the help of the Holy Virgin Mary, did not become overgrown.

Since 1926, when Soviet authority closed the monastery and placed a colony of juvenile delinquents in its place; until 2003, the miraculous image was kept in the Yaroslavl Museum. Since 2003, the Bright Face has illuminated the Tolga monastery, leaving it only 2 times per a short time.

The healing and liberating power of the icon

I heard about the healing power of the icon of the Mother of God great king Ivan the Terrible, suffering from severe pain in his legs. The king ordered him to be taken to the Tolga monastery. For a long time, John fervently prayed before the Holy Face, and received healing, going out to his subjects with his feet.

What other icons do they pray to for healing:

In 1392, after the proclamation of the kontakion, right hand The Mother of God began to flow myrrh, and after a while myrrh appeared on the Baby’s left leg. So the Most Holy Mother of God gave Her Divine sign to weak people.

For 7 centuries, the miraculous power of the Holy Face has helped people who come with a pure heart and faith in the healing power of Jesus Christ.

Reverent silence reigns in the temple, where pilgrims, on their knees, ask the Mother of God for healing of spirit, soul, body:

• save from godlessness;
• protect during famine;
• heal from diseases;
• get rid of celibacy;
• free from addiction: drunkenness, smoking, fornication and drug addiction.

The blessed power of the Tolgskaya icon of the Mother of God is the protective cover of Yaroslavl. The bright face of a loving Mother gives hope to the fallen in spirit, heals and delivers from addictions.

Description of the Tolga face of the Mother of God

The Assumption Cathedral in Yaroslavl is the custodian of God's treasure. It is here that the Great Tolga Icon of the Virgin Mary with Child is located.

About other temples in Yaroslavl:

Iconography experts have not come to a consensus about the authorship of the Holy Face, but most of them are inclined to Yaroslavl origin.

The icon is made on a linden board.

On it, the Blessed Virgin is depicted sitting on a throne, covered with a veil with flowing folds, decorated with silver and pearls. The high back of the throne is decorated with an exquisite ornament depicting climbing plants near the arch openings.

At first glance, one is struck by the sad eyes of the Virgin Mary, which contain all the pain for humanity. The head of the Mother of God is decorated with the sign of Divinity inherent in this particular icon.

The baby, in a red shirt and a blue cape, comfortably sat on the left knee of the Mother of God, gently pressing his cheek to the Mother’s cheek and wrapping his arms around Her, as if supporting the Virgin during her suffering.

From the face of the Baby comes tenderness, Divine love, filling those praying with peace and tranquility.

Very often, patients who come on crutches receive healing, throw away their crutches, and leave on their own feet, constantly thanking the Virgin Mary, glorifying the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

Babies, old people, men, women are healed. They are healed through their own prayers, requests from mothers and loved ones.

It is difficult to count all the miracles given to people after tireless prayers and faith in receiving what they asked for, but prayers of thanksgiving to the Holy Trinity, the Virgin Mary and all the Saints are constantly flowing to God.

Prayer before the face of the Mother of God

The prayer and akathist before the bright image of the Virgin Mary and Child echoes the prayer “Our Father,” which people say with all their hearts and minds:

• about the power of God;
• protection from the arrows of the evil one;
• protection of God

“O Most Holy Lady, Virgin Mother of God, above the Cherubim and Seraphim and the holiest of all saints! You, the All-Blessed One, on Tolga, You deigned to reveal Your multi-healing icon to the blessed Saint Tryphon in a fiery way, and with it You performed many and ineffable miracles, and are now doing them, out of Your ineffable mercy towards us. Before Your most pure image we bow down and pray, O Most Blessed Intercessor of our race: in this much-sorrowful and much-rebellious earthly journey, do not deprive us of Your intercession and the protection of God.

Save and protect us, Lady, from the fiery arrows of the evil enemy of our salvation. Strengthen our weak will to do the commandments of Christ, soften our hardened hearts with love for God and our neighbors, grant us heartfelt contrition and true repentance, so that, having been cleansed from the filth of sin, we will be able to bring to the Creator the fruits of good deeds pleasing to Him and we will be honored with a peaceful Christian death and response right at His terrible and impartial Judgment. Hey, Lady All-Merciful!

In the hour of menacing death, show us Your powerful intercession, then hasten to help us, helpless, and with Your sovereign hand free us from the power of the fierce world ruler, for truly Your prayer can do a lot before the face of the Lord, and nothing will stop Your intercession, only admiration . Also, looking tenderly at Your holy image and before it, as if You are alive and living with us, we worship, with good hope, ourselves, and each other, and our whole life to You, according to God, we prayerfully commend to You and we magnify You with our Savior born of You, The Lord Jesus Christ, to Him, with His Father Without Beginning and the Most Holy Spirit, is due all glory, honor and worship, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen".

28.12.2015

The image of the Mother of God is represented by icons that more than once show their mercy to the Russian people. Exists a large number of legends and traditions about icons telling about miraculous healings or liberations from enemies who want to conquer a particular area. Diligent prayer and faith in the Lord helped people avoid misfortunes and cope with enemies, and icons were original conductors of God’s power, since the faces depicted on them prayed before the Lord for those who asked for their blessing and help.

Icon of the Sign of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

The image appeared in the 11th-12th centuries and became famous for saving Velikiy Novgorod from the invasion of Andrei Bogolyubsky’s son Mstislav. When the city was besieged, and the townspeople could only pray and ask for intercession from God and the Mother of God, the archbishop heard a “sign” at the altar of the Mother of God. She told him to take her image from the Church of Our Savior Jesus Christ and hang it on the city wall. This was done, the image hung in the very center of the future battle, and the townspeople fervently prayed to this icon.

Icon of the Seven Shot Mother of God.

The Mother of God experienced terrible torment, seeing how her son Jesus Christ, having absorbed all human sins, atones for them by being crucified on the cross. All existing demons went to the immortal soul of the Savior to punish him for all the sins committed by humanity. The anguish was so intense that Jesus turned to God, asking why He had abandoned him. Darkness formed around him from a huge number of demons, and the Mother of God, seeing the torment of her son, lost consciousness and from then on became the Lord’s neighbor in spirit. That is why the icon depicts a weapon piercing the heart of the Most Pure Virgin, for her grief was so great, as if her soul had been pierced with a weapon.
