"Yhteen aikaan isä Daniel Pyhien Arkkienkeleiden keljasta vieraili isä Gregorioksen luona synnintunnustuksella ja kertoi hänelle, että oli nähnyt näyssä kolme esipaimenta. Hän oli välittömästi kiiruhtanut kunnioittamaan pyhää Basileiosta, mutta "pyhä" oli ojentanut jalkansa ja käskenyt kunnioittamaan isovarvastaan. Kun isä Gregorios kuuli tämän hän hengellisellä erottelukyvyllään näki munkin harhan ja sanoi tälle: "Veli, sinä kunnioitit suurta paholaista. Jos se olisi todella ollut pyhä Basileios näyssäsi, hän ei koskaan olisi käskenyt sinun kunnioittaa varvastaan."  (suomennettu katkelma)

542-sivuinen englanninkielinen teos Simferopolin arkkipiispa Lukan elämästä:

"The Cross, persecution, sorrow, temptation are the legacy of the Church and of a true Christian. There is not an Orthodox Church that has not experienced her own persecution; neither has a saint lived that has not gone through his own furnace of afflictions, persecutions and temptations.

A moving witness to the Cross is also the figure of Saint Luke, Arhcbishop of Simpheropol and Crimea, physician, professor of toporaphic anatomy and surgery; a man with rare talents and spiritual gifts, with a stunning scientific training, who ministered to human beings as pastor and doctor, with an admirable self-denial and love."
