You guys , it's something. The phrase to remember the movie .
The pious people of the past were often close to the holy icon lithography on hour of death with the inscription : « Shogo no escape ...» This helped them to think: what today will bring to eternity, as it does not live in vain ? « In all thy works remember the end , and thou shalt not sin » ( Sir. 7 , 39 )

Artem, the pious people of the past , as you say , do not hang a picture next to the icons. For, should not be among the icons of paintings , though written in the Bible stories .
So " Syzran " dictum - " closer to the icons " in any sense is not true.
Just a ...

 Do you think I came up with it myself . You though google !

So what?

All sorts of things hanging from Nektarios over the bed.

Icons hung camping in the certain places, and near to them, the more mixed up, hang pictures, even on a religious theme, is prohibited
.

By the way, you can not hang next to the iconostasis, even photographs and lithographs, holy persons.

Yeah I'm not going to argue with Paul Priest Gumerov, especially married and having two children.

I will set out his views on the matter, guided read, and pretty.

And what in the ROC has entered celibacy?
<! - ~ 7 ~ ->

The priest of the secular clergy (do not bring religious profession) without marriage and ordination will not pass, do not ordain celibate.

Cyril, turn the sometimes humorous, of course if you have such a button.

That's right, this is the so-called
"Spiritual painting" Memory of the Death with traditional text and image.
Similar patterns could hang for example in the cells of the monks, along with icons ..

And you can not close?
