Global questions of History (according to
a modern trend «Anastasia» in Russian ideological space).
Introduction
There are people in our
country who live in deep Siberian forests. They are pagans. They call
themselves Vedrusses. It does not mean that they are worshiping idols
and making blood sacrifices to gods. It means that they preserved
all the Culture and the way of life of Russians living in pre-Сhristian
period. Their knowledge of all real History is huge and deep. It was transmitted
from generation to generation and lately was given to one of the representatives
of our civilization, a businessman who accidentally occurred in their place,
met them and learnt about their way of life. His name is Vladimir Megre. He
wrote a book titled «Anastasia» which is very popular in our country and was
translated into many foreign languages.
So, I want to tell you about
a new glance at History according to Vedrusses vision. I will
just show the basic milestones of History under the new point and their
connection and influence to modern life.

hand on, to give reverence to God
Part 1.
Long ago people all over
the world had almost the similar way of life. They lived in harmony with Nature
and God, in peace with other people. There were no states and boarders. There
were no social gradation, no state power, no religions, no rich and poor, no
wars. There was one language in the huge territory (It is known in linguistic science
as Indo European language nowadays).
The core of society in
that time was kin. All the society consisted of small and big communities where
the matter of governing was being solved by colloquium of heptaplomeres, the
soviet of old and wise representatives of the kin. The land on which they lived
was the gist, sense and means of life for those people. Every family had its
own plot of arable land. It was about one hectare. And a family knew all about
it. They knew which plants must grow near which plants in order to help to grow
each other not claiming a huge human labor as it happens now. People loved
their land, every flower, tree and animal on it. They did not kill animals and
were vegans. The Earth, the land and every living thing bestowed their love
back to human beings. Wild animals were not afraid of people and people were
not afraid of animals. Everybody and everything lived in paradise.

for a power, wars and differentiation of people became usual in the world. It

sense of life.

Part 3.
As it is known from the History
the roots of modern civilization take the beginning in Egypt. From there
originated the basic religious and scientific principles which are in action up
to date. The main religious principles are: God demands worshipping, all the
people must follow the rules, established by God. People must carry out His
Will. Of course «the nearest» to God and His Will were acknowledged the
priests. They became the highest caste in social gradation all over the
continent. They became the owners of the world, the hosts of people s minds…
The main scientific
principle, «Adam s apple», became cognition. It substituted creation. Instead
of improving the world created by God people began to destroy His world in
order to get to know how it had been created, began to break perfect things in
order to build their own far less perfect. Now we can see the consequences of
this principle in our technocratic civilization.

Part 4.
Another milestone of History
is a devise of money. It is the next occult, unreal devise of the world s
rulers. When slavery already became wide spread all over the planet the chief
authorities of different countries faced a big problem connected with it.
Slaves always, everywhere tried to gain freedom, they tended to riots and
revolutions. So the task of the rulers was to invent such means that could
afford without big efforts to make other people work on them, on their idea of building
unreality. So the main priests devised money. Nominally slaves became free but
really they were the same slaves but working for money and thinking they were
free. Such situation has been going on until the present moment. All the
humanity, as slaves is working on a small group of people who concentrated the
majority of world s money in their hands.

Part 5.
Next landmark, a
new level in a tremendous plan of the main priest was the creation
of a new nation with a peculiar ideology and religion which could conquer
the world and become an obedient weapon in his hands. Moses, belonging to the
high level of Egypt occult caste executed the mission on creation a
new nation perfectly. Jews became the people with such specific religious
ideology which not only afforded but demanded from them to conquer
the world. Everybody knows that it is exactly Moses who created Israel s
religion. In History there was no more occult religion, neither before nor
after it. It contains 666 laws and Jews had to follow them in
order to execute «God s will». Forty years in a desert were real and they did
not pass without consequences. During this period Moses and Aaron were encoding
the people. They plunged them into unreal world of rules and
restrictions on the background of lifeless desert, where there was not nature
created by God. So the people of Israel became bio robots submitted to
the peculiar program. The main slogans in their ideology became: «You
are a selected nation of God» and «All the other nations must be subordinated
to you».

Part 6.
The central event of
modern history was Cheeses Christ and his activity. Born in Israel and being
Jew he saw the problems of his nation and imperfectness of its life. He went to
the East, to India and Tibet. He got a tremendous strength and knowledge there
and after some time returned to his country and tried to help his people. He
tried to decode them, making them free from dogmas by creating a new, opposite religion.
It is difficult to
overestimate the Christ s income into spiritual life of the whole world but
Cheeses did not manage to fulfill the mission on changing Jews religion. It
remained the same. New religion was accepted by other peoples of the world
though it was not the original aim of Christ.
The main priest used this
situation in his interests. He tried to spread Christianity as much wide as he
could, having changed it in some aspects but at the same time tried to leave
the former religion to Jews. And he reached his goal.
Now, ideologically, in
the main part of the world there were two opposite religions. One says: «You
are a king of the Earth and everything is yours». The other says: «Everybody is
equal. Solve, give out all you have». Of course, with such premises, reasons
and establishments it is obvious that Jews will become the owners of the world.
And they did. Their weapon was money and cunning. Christian Jews preachers were
going to pagan countries. After them Jews money-lenders were going too. It is
not surprising that numeral assassinations and distractions of Jews people took
place in different countries of Europe along the whole new history. But only
ordinary people were being killed. The high level of Jews community stayed
alive and the stock of money also stayed at their hands. And as you can see
from modern life the main priest s plan has worked and has been working. Nowadays
the high society of Jews owns the biggest amount of money in the world. And all
the other humanity is working on it.
Read the text in Part 6

Why does the author consider Cheeses Christ and his
activity to be the central historical event?
2.
What was the mission of Cheeses Christ? Do you agree
with the author?
3.
Why did not Cheeses Christ reach his original aim?
4.
How did the main priest use Christian religion?
5.
What is the main ideological difference between Judaism
and Christianity?
6.
Why did Jews become the owners of the world?
7.
Why was there hatred to Jews in many countries of the
world during all new history?
Part 7.
The last but not the
least event which influenced the conscience of millions of people and finally changed
their mode of thinking, way of life and attitude to the Earth was The Second
Constantinople Council. There the idea of reincarnation was cursed by paters of
Christian Church. It was done in order people not to think about the gist and
sense of real Earth life and consider that only after death, in Heaven the
happy life exists. The result of this was further human careless attitude to
the Earth. More over everything which was connected with the Earth was
considered to be sinful. The main priest, having changed the doctrine of
Christ, drove the mind of great amount of human beings in the frames of new religious
dogmas for many centuries ahead. And we have great consequences of this act in
modern life. We see barbaric people s attitude to Nature and to the planet as a
whole. Religion does not have such influence to minds, as it was earlier. Many
ideological chains fell down but good moral religious principles also went away.
The idea that a man lives only one life stayed in the conscience of many
people. A modern man with the lack of faith in God, in next life in Heaven and
in next life on Earth has no sense in life at all. Money and comfort are modern
gods and most of the people are worshiping them.

you think that religious dogma is good or bad? Why?
7. How

Conclusion
I told you about the most
significant events of History according to vedrusses point of view, described
by Vladimir Megre in the series of books «Anastasia». Of course, from the side
of science some of these facts are parascientific (1) and may not be proven.
But I liked the logical chain of performed facts and assessments. More over the
vivid and imaginative style of the book really makes you believe that
everything written was true. Also I appreciate the tendency of the authors not
only to state the problems of modern civilization but to suggest a solution, to
offer a new (well forgotten) way of life for all the people in the world.
