Someone was inquiring where they might purchase a complete set of the Philokalia in Greek. Please forgive me if I am posting this in the incorrect forum. This is actually my first post, although I have been lurking for some time. This request is not for myself. I do not read Greek and am very new to the world of the Byzantine tradition. Thank You,
John

Dear John,
My suggestion would be to contact Holy Cross Theology School in Brookline, Massachusetts. Otherwise, Saint Anthony Greek Orthodox Monastery in Arizona or:
Saint Nektarios Greek Orthodox Monastery 100 Lake Anawanda, Roscoe, N.Y. 12776.
I wish I had their phone numbers.
But, even if they don't have one in Greek, they might be able to tell you where you can order one; if not here, then from Greece.
If that's not helpful, then contact the Church of Greece. I was hoping to give you their web site, but it seems I can only get it in Greek. Try it though, you might have better luck than me. 
God Bless,
Zenovia

Hekllo Zenovia:
Thank you for taking the time and trouble to collect and pass those resources. I was able to get phone numbers. Also the Church of Greece website comes up in English at ecclesia.gr/english/EnIndex.html. I'll pass along the information to the person who is interested in the Greek edition of the Philokalia when I see him after DL. I'll let you know if he is successful in his quest.
God Bless, John

Hello Zenovia:
The person who was seeking the Greek edition of the Philokalia was able to obtain it from Alexander Press in Montreal. (They have it in both Koine and Modern Greek) He told me the person he spoke to at the monastery in Arizona (thanks to the information you so kindly provided) was able to help him narrow down exactly what he wanted.
Thanks again for your assistance,
John
