Серафим Саровский
Dostoevsky stated that in Elder Ambrose he had found a living example of the Christian ideal. Elder Nektary of "The Brothers Karamazov" referred to Ambrose as "an earthly angel and a heavenly man." Saint Ambrose is supposed to have been seen surrounded by the uncreated light more than once. In the Russian Orthodox tradition, this is the definitive sign of transfiguration and citizenship in the Kingdom of Heaven to come, or paradise, similar to what has been attributed to Saint Seraphim of Sarov.
