Focusing the attention and work on getting back to the Balkans somehow. Belgrade, Sarajevo, Cluj, etc.
Not an exaggeration to say that this going to ground in the city is almost like a loss of life, followed by a lower and more difficult condition of existence. I suppose you could call it a bardo, One strains to reorganize the energy to restore the sufficiency in past existence.
Absolute discipline (teetotal, gym, daily Mass, etc.) and not trying to soften the situation by passing the hat or sending out rogations and petitions.
