60 Minutes: Mt. Athos (April 24, 2011) by CBS

Description

Airdate: 4/24/11 Bob Simon gets rare access to Mount Athos, a remote peninsula in northern Greece that is the spiritual capital of Orthodox Christianity. For more than a thousand year, monks on Mount Athos have lived lives wholly devoted to prayer, work, contemplation, and isolation, with little time left either to eat or sleep. Despite a millennium's worth of world changes since the establishment of the Mount Athos monasteries, monks say little has altered in their secluded, sacred world since their Byzantine brethren lived and prayed here.
