Abstract: It is already a well-known reality, proven by the numerous volumes, studies and research efforts, published after 1990 on this topic that the great personality and actions of Father Daniil Sandu Tudor, who has developed intellectually in the fertile and diversified environment of the inter-war Romania, still arouses debates and controversies. Researching the biography of Sandu Tudor during the Second World War, when, as it is known, he was mobilized, will follow the dynamism of the subject towards the knowledge of God, the spiritual progress, which undoubtedly corresponds to an increasingly bright ascetic work. In his endeavor to reconstruct the image of the Rugul Aprins (The Burning Bush) of that time as truthfully as possible, the author corroborated the documents from the Archive with the memorialistic literature, but also with the interview of the only person who can testify today about what did the prayer of the heart mean for the students, and also for the seniors integrated into the Movement – Father Nicolae Bordasiu.
