| | The first evidence of this appeared among the Serbian saints, who through their ascetism, virtues, and suffering were constructing a spiritual ladder to the Kingdom of Heaven for their people and who exemplified through their lives the manner in which the world, the path of history, and man's deeds within it should be evaluated. | | | This is especially evident in the poem "The Fall of the Serbian Kingdom," in which Kosovo's physical defeat was transformed into a spiritual victory, a Christian philosophy of tragic sacrifice converted into the moral base of the people's mentality. | | | Another component of the Serbian spiritual identity is zaduzbinarstvo (the erection of churches and monasteries for the sake of one's own salvation, as well as for the lasting benefit of one's people), which is a further indication of both the direction and the degree of the people's spiritual growth. |
