Choosing religion you choose fate. Tsvetana Alеkhina
Herodotus, telling about the life of the rich Greeks, mentions the imported amber from a distant country lying in the north, near the river Eriades and the cold, stormy sea. In addition, the first information about the Slavs comes from the Roman historians Pliny the Elder and Cornelius Tacitus. These are brief mentions, and both Roman authors call the Slavs «Veneds».
Depending on how archives and libraries are completed, what documents and books they receive, what documents are destroyed, for what reasons they are destroyed, it is possible to judge the usefulness of the source of the base of historical science. Naturally, not all historical sources that were created in the past have reached our days… Practically, we have fragmentary data, single documents that were created earlier than the 16th century. The corpus of sources began to be more or less evenly folded after the invention of printing. The appearance of replicated publications ensured their greater safety. Handwritten documents and books were created and stored, as a rule, in monasteries. The most valuable documents for the state were kept in princely palaces.
Nikon became patriarch in 1652. Nikon, according to G. Florovsky, belongs to those strange people who seem to have no face, but only temperament. Instead of a face, an idea or a program. Contemporaries talked and wrote a lot about Nikon’s church reform, contradictorily. He did not know Greek, but he «had an almost morbid tendency to redo and re-dress everything in Greek, as Peter later had a passion for dressing everyone or everything in German or Dutch. They have a common similarity: the ease of breaking with the past, premeditation and contrivance in action…
To study the history of Russia, it is interesting to trace how foreigners looked at our country. In this regard, the recently published book «Ancient Russia in the light of foreign sources» should be noted.
It is also important to introduce documents on the history of Russia stored in foreign archives into scientific circulation.
Pagan – this word in the meaning of idolater is a borrowing from Old Slavonic, where it had the meaning of «gentile» and was formed as a tracing paper from the Greek ethnikos from ethnos – «people».
In my opinion, paganism is a religion that has been destroyed for many hundreds of years. Now, when people have freedom of choice, our traditions have begun to revive again.
Paganism is a cult. This is the cult of ancient knowledge, this is the Vedas, and this is a completely incomprehensible history that has survived to our times.
Paganism is the oldest religion on Earth. It has absorbed thousands of years of wisdom, knowledge, history, culture. In our time, pagans are called those who profess the old faith, which was before the emergence of Christianity.
Information about paganism has reached our days because during the baptism, our ancestors converted to Christianity and continued to worship the gods and honor our ancestors. In order to preserve our Vedas and traditions in this way.
Paganism is a term used in Christianity to define non-Avramic religions. In a broader and modern sense, paganism is commonly called any polytheistic or non-traditional religions that are outside of Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism and Buddhism. In simple words, Paganism is a belief in one of the many ancient religions based on the worship of various gods or supernatural beings that do not belong to Christianity, Islam or Judaism.
Facts about Paganism:
– Pagans do not believe in the Christian concept of God, but it was Christian mythology that borrowed a significant part of the ideas from pagan beliefs.
– Pagans do not believe in the devil or Satan. This concept originated with Christianity.
– Pagans are not Satanists. Satanism was born out of a response to Christianity. This has nothing to do with the pagan mythologies that preceded Christianity.
– Pagans do not sacrifice people or animals. In ancient times, all religions, including Christianity, performed rites of sacrifice. Today’s pagans have left this part of their ancient belief system in the past.
– Many holidays originate from paganism. For example: Christmas, Easter and Halloween. There is also a holiday Kostroma and Kupala, which Christians appropriated for themselves, and now it is called Ivan Kupala.
– «The Gentiles don’t hate Jesus, but they don’t worship him. Most people think he was a good man who tried to make the world a better place. But the pagans do not consider him a god.
– For pagans, magic and incantation are acts of purposeful prayer with a clear intention.
Paganism is an established religious system that has contributed to the development of major religions and to the culture of various nations as a whole. In a sense, it is in paganism, in traditions and rituals, that the main arguments that influenced the formation of peoples and nations as a whole are stored, and made them what they are now. And even only from a historical point of view, these belief systems are of great value both for certain peoples and for humanity as a whole.
By itself, paganism is freedom. The Slavs were free, they lived in tribes. Slavs lived at the expense of livestock and agriculture, at the expense of nature. They revered nature. Nature was their god, and they loved her. By itself, the meaning of the word nature is already a GENUS, i.e. we are WITH a GENUS! With God. Our main god is the god Rod.
Paganism is also called the Slavs’ Rodnoverie. The meaning of the Rodnoveriya is the revival of Russian traditions, ancient Slavic rituals, and ancient creeds. The Rodnoverie is a sacred religion for the Slavs. Rodnovers tend to plunge into it even more with the help of various rituals. The basis of the Rodnoveriya is to be in harmony with nature, to use natural resources correctly, to live according to the law of ancestors. It helps people feel like a part of Nature, to observe its laws. National identity helps to form an independent and self-sufficient personality in a person.
Some pagans and fans of paganism are often interested in the question: when will our number increase, and when, finally, will our beliefs be officially recognized by the state? When the persecution by «official» religions and authorities will become outdated. To do this, the world around us needs to change seriously. Why? Because of the pagans themselves. Those who are interning and posting spam. Spreads negative information, insults other religions. Many consider themselves pagans, wear rotifers and do not know anything about paganism.
First, a pagan is necessarily a person. Even if he is in a crowd, he is not part of it. Even in a circle of like-minded people, he is a person, because everyone’s path is individual. There simply cannot be templates for personal development in paganism. A pagan will not keep up with the company, «like everyone else,» especially if he does not agree with the direction of travel or destination. For any totalitarian religion or political party, such a person is harmful, as well as for the state system as a whole.
CHAPTER 2
Law and religion, they are always there. The state needs a religion that will unite people, so that there would be a number. There are too few Rodnovers to make this religion legal. This religion is too diverse; it will not be numerous because of polytheism, so others do not perceive our religion. Yet our rituals, superstitions, and signs are present everywhere.
The Slavs call the Heavenly inhabitants Gods, and those Gods who live on Earth are called Aces (hence the image of the letters AZ – As and Earth, i.e. God living on Earth). Until now, the best in their field are called Aces: the pilot is an ace, the driver is an ace, i.e. he flies, drives like a God.
Our country has long been called ASIA – the Land of the Aces, since our Ancestors lived by Birth, the word ASIA received the abbreviation «RACE» – the Birth of the Aces of the Country of the Aces. The very name of the country «RACE» refers only to people with white skin color, there can be no «black race», «yellow race», other peoples and tribes had their own names. When the Clans of the Aces multiplied many times, multiplied on the Earth, they became a Great Race, i.e. a large numerous people (great = big).
