EN
Orthodox liturgical practice indicates a blessing, dedication and consecration of icons. It is not unified within the universal Church and within the autocephalous Church and local liturgical traditions. This article focuses on explaining the meaning of the blessing rites in the practice of the Polish Autocephalous Orthodox Church. This practice is largely consistent with the practice of other Orthodox Churches of the Slavic tradition, including The Russian Orthodox Church, the Orthodox Church of the Czech Lands and Slovakia, the Bulgarian Patriarchate and the Serbian Patriarchate. This part deals with the features attributed to the icons: canonicity, uniqueness and sanctity. Next, an analysis of the liturgical rites of blessing was carried out and their meaning was shown.
