Many in the international community also need to become more literate religiously – whatever their personal views. Deani and Pe are not just museums; they are places committed to worshipping God. As Kosovo Albanians begin to understand the reason for the monastic life, much of the prejudice and fear which is based on ignorance will slowly evaporate. The Orthodox monasteries and the municipalities of Pe and Deani have to start creating the basis for healthy community relations. There is no other alternative. The Soul of Europe is ready to help facilitate this process. When this begins to happen, Kosovo can really declare what is written in its constitution – that minorities are welcome. Many governments withholding recognition will begin to change their minds. Serbs living in these monasteries and elsewhere south of the river Ibar will no longer feel abandoned and under constant threat. Even tourism in Pe and Deani could benefit the local economy, as these holy sites become what the Declaration said they should be – places of intercultural dialogue.

Maria Kamenetskaya’s “Between Summer and Fall” is a piercing, funny and ultimately loving ode to the functionally dysfunctional family as it ages. Older parents meet with grown children at the dacha (one daughter in law can’t attend because she has gotten her lips augmented). They plant apple trees awkwardly, but in a spirit of détente. Arkady Babchenko is the new Russian master of the memoir. His work is both confessional in tone and bereft of self-pity. Somehow he makes the Russian Army’s disciplinary battalion—a dank, festering, abusive and debased atmosphere, as hopeless as any of the gulags—approachable and eminently readable. His unembellished style and ironic humor draws the reader in, as if standing close to him, a specter over his shoulder who knows somehow he got out because he is writing this story and not rotting outside Grozny. Anyone following Russia’s current army reforms must read Arkady Babchenko’s story “The Diesel Stop.” Already known for his journalism and first book “One Soldier’s War,” it is not lost on readers that he uses the same adroit translator here, Nick Allen. Babchenko recovered from his lifeless humiliation and addiction to war through writing about it. He has said in interviews that the process of writing transformed him into a new person. Ah, there it is again, the transformation of character. Most of us cannot become Russian writers in hopes of changing our lives. But could reading more Russian writers help us reach that place called an examined life? Start with Rasskazy, or Stories. As editors Mikhail Iossel and Jeff Parker point out, Russia’s greatest contribution to the world over time is not oil or gas or arms. “Rather it’s been the successive generations of Russian writers capable of examining life’s emotional and intellectual restlessness, its complexity and intensity. Here’s to the interior life. Russia Beyond the Headlines Nora Fitzgerald 25 ноября 2010 г. ...

Archimandrite John (Krestiankin)      Also numbered among the ascetics of piety of the Pskov-Caves Monastery is Righteous Matthew of Isborsk. Isborsk is an ancient town not far from Pechory, with its later settlement, Maly, located nearby. Righteous Matthew was bed-ridden for forty-five years, and reposed in 1905, after bringing much spiritual help to those who came to him. The Pskov-Caves Monastery remains an important place of pilgrimage for the Orthodox faithful in Russia and the world over. Thousands have found there healing and transformation, good counsel and support, through the prayers of its saints and holy elders. 28 июня 2015 г. Предыдущий Следующий Смотри также Mean Old Fr.

After but a few minutes it would be clear to them that they had never met anyone like these monks in their whole lives.

Наталья 10 апреля 2012, 13:17 Унываю последнюю неделю, ленность не только пойти в храм, а вообще шевелиться. Почитаю проповеди в надежде дух поднять, но наоборот вижу только свою никчемность, негодность. От этого становится совсем плохо. Вот дошла до вашей проповеди и ободрилась, по крайней мере самоедство отошло, что мало молюсь, недостойно пощусь, недостойно причащаюсь. Спасибо, Вам. Ваши проповеди вселяют в нас немощных надежду и утешают. Fr. Vladimir Eremine 9 апреля 2012, 22:31 But we see more in our churches than what we can hear – for example, how space of the church building is utilized by communities of the faithful, how laypeople are positioned with respect to the clergy, what type of accommodations like pews or lack of them. We know that at some point Christians were allowed to use basilicas as houses of worship. It might have not been an ideal type of the building to use for the Eucharist as we read about it in the Gospels – one room, one table and so force, but it was what it was. Churches in Europe or Theodorofski Icon Cathedral in St. Petersburg (now lovely restored) preserve the basilica’s basic structure. The majority of churches in Russia and eastern Europe, however, reconceptualized the basilica after Jerusalem’s temple erecting iconostases and thus separating the faithful from the clergy. This trend reached its culmination in Christ the Savior Cathedral in Moscow, where we actually see a church inside a church. My question to you, father Andrew, how did this wild imagination broke so vividly with ancient tradition of the Mystical Supper? Thinking back from the point of view of the Christ the Savior, we plausibly can think that our Lord was periodically emerging from and disappearing into some inner room, while apostles were patiently standing in a different room or even outside like our babushkas during the Mystical Supper.

10 – 12. 1348 James Drummond, Philo Judaeus I, p. 13: «Again and again, as we read him (Philo), we wish that he and Paulus could have known one another; and yet we doubt whether he could ever, with Paul, have broken loose from the bondage of the past, and committed himself trustfully to a new and more glorious future». Это гораздо вероятнее чем напрасная и тенденциозная догадка M. Friedlander’a, будто «Филон с радостью приветствовал бы первохристианское движение, если бы он был осведомлен о последнем» (Der Antichrist in den von christlichen judischen Quellen, S. 61). 1349 Больше – в этом смысле мы разумеем и предуготовление Филоном почвы для Евангелия, о чем с разумительной сдержанностью говорит и Prof. C. F. G. Heinrici в «Theologische Literaturzeitung» 1900, 24, S. 660. Но скорее будет верно замечание Prof. R. A. Lipsius’a (в Bibel – Lexicon von D. Schenel I, S. 90), что Филон уравнял путь для христианской философии, однако в этом отношении он был для последней предвестником неудач, ибо, стараясь слить вместо личного Бога религии и чистое единство или бесконечное бытие философии, александрийский мистик лишь попал в безисходные противоречия, из которых принципиально не могли выпутаться ни он сам, ни его (христианские) подражатели и продолжатели. 1350 Cp. C. F. G. Heinrici, Erklarung der Korinthierbriefe II, S. 581: «Die alexandrinischen Versuche zur Erueuerung des Judentums fuhrten zum Einmunden in den Hellenismus, Paulus Predigt legt einen neuen Grund, auf dem die sittlichen Guter der alttestamentlichen Religion und der antiken Philosophie eine Lebensfahigkeit gewinnen, welche sie fur sich nicht besassen». 1351 Ср. кн. С. Н. Трубецкой, Учение о Логосе в его истории I, стрн. 161: «различие между ранним (?) христианством и религией (?!) Филона было весьма значительным, более значительным даже, чем различие между христианством и ортодоксальным палестинским иудейством, которое стояло с ним на одинаковой почве в своем положительном отношении к Ветхому Завету».

It was a wonderfull and unforgettable event to which hundreds of clergy and many thousands of laymen came from all over the world! The importance of St. John for the people of the twentieth century cannot be underestimated. Those who knew him personally or have read about his life and miracles have learned of the tremendous spiritual power embodied in this frail little man. God was drawn to the burning, loving heart of Vladyka John, which became a vessel of His grace. He entrusted the Saint with heavenly secrets and the ability to transcend physical laws, making him a point of contact between Himself, the Creator, and us, His creatures. There can be no doubt that Vladyka John has been sent by God as a gift of holiness to the people of the last days. At a time when imitation has become the norm in all aspects of life, when the authentic spirit of the Christian Faith has been so hidden that most are oblivious of its very existence, he can be seen as a model of genuineness. Vladyka John has set the right " tone " of true apostleship in the modern world. As more people are drawn into the Orthodox Church of Christ before the final unleashing of evil, may they look to him as their loving guide and a pastor who knows no death. He is a kind of " measuring stick " that indicates who and what is real in our confusing times. The unit of measure is nothing other than pure Christian love, which he possessed and distributed in abundance. With this love, the intense struggle of spiritual life becomes worth the effort. By the prayers of Saint John may God bless and save us. Amen! Bishop Alexander (Mileant) 2 июля 2012 г.

Russian Patriarch Kiril read out a statement that he made jointly with Catholicos Karekin II, the supreme head of the Armenian Apostolic Church; and Azerbaijan’s top Shi’a Muslim leader, Sheikh ul-Islam Allahshukur Pashazade, at the end of a meeting in Yerevan on November 21 held as part of a summit of top clerics from post-Soviet countries. Armenian and international mediators have repeatedly called for a bilateral withdrawal of snipers to reduce deadly cease-fire violations reported along the Armenian-Azerbaijani “line of contact” in Karabakh on a regular basis and blamed by both sides on each other. The military authorities in Armenia and Karabakh reiterated their readiness to withdraw snipers from the frontline positions following the reported deaths of two Armenian soldiers near Karabakh on November 19-20 by what Stepanakert described as sniper fire from Azerbaijani army positions. They stressed, however, that they cannot withdraw unilaterally. At the same time, the military in Armenia vowed to retaliate to discourage further sniper activity in the conflict zone. Karabakh’s ethnic Armenian army reported seven killed or wounded in the Azerbaijani army in the past week, describing the casualties as resulting from their troops’ “punitive actions.” Azerbaijan has confirmed only one death. Talking to the media over the weekend, Armenian President Serzh Sarkisian underscored that the responsibility for future losses in the Azerbaijani army lies with Azerbaijan’s authorities.

Archive DECR secretary for interreligious relations takes part in the forum in Elista 8 October 2022 year 10:45 On October 6, 2022, an interregional reflection-action conference on ‘Nikolay Palmov: Personality and Time’ was opened in Elista. It was devote to the 150th birthday of Nikolay N. Palmov, an historian of the Church, the founder of Kalmyk studies, an educator and the founder of the museum and archive work in Kalmykia. The conference was organized by the Palmov National Museum of the Republic of Kalmykia with the support of the Federal Agency for Ethnic Affairs, the diocese of Kalmykia, the Kalmykia National Archives and the Russian Academy of Sciences’ Kalmykia Academic Center. The conference was attended by historians, regional ethnographers, archaeologists, archivists and librarians, professors and students of educational institutions. Archbishop Justinian of Elista and Kalmykia greeted the participants in the plenary session. He spoke about the topicality of Palmov’s academic legacy and his unique contribution to Kalmyk historical studies. He also recalled that Nikolay Palmov, a son and grandson of Orthodox priests, rose as a scholar in the church milieu. He called upon the participants to resort to Nikolay Palmov’s works more often as they have remained relevant today. A message of greeting was sent to the attendees by the Chairman of the Department for External Church Relations of the Moscow Patriarchate, Metropolitan Anthony of Volokolamsk. It was read out by Rev. Dimitry Safonov, executive secretary of the Interreligious Council in Russia, who came to Elista with a blessing of the DECR chairman. Then Father Dimitry delivered a paper on ‘Nikolay Palmov as a historian of the Church’ with an analysis of Palmov’s academic studies in church history, archaeology and heortology and historical liturgics.  On the side-lines of the conference, the DECR secretary for interreligious relations had a meeting with the senior administrator of the Central Khurul  " Golden Abode of Buddha Shakyamuni’ to inform him about the work of the Interreligious Council in Russia and the experience of Orthodox-Buddhist relations. On the same day, the work of the conference was summed up at the RIA Kalmykia Press Center. In his remarks, Father Dimitry Safonov stressed that Nikolay Palmov as an Orthodox scholar, who devoted his last fifteen years to studies in the history of the Kalmyk people and culture, is a unique example of selfless service for both ecclesiastical scholarship and the Kalmyk people. He called upon scholars to joint their efforts for preparing and publishing a collection of Nikolay Palmov’s ecclesiastical studies.

The organisers write: Religion is not a neutral subject. As with other significant constituents of identity, such as sexuality, gender, ethnicity, or class, the subject of ‘religion’ as a topic for study is not straightforward. And yet, we study it, deconstruct it, analyse, and measure it, recognising as we do that definitions are bound to be contested, fluid, and sometimes slippery. What are the particular challenges and choices this presents in different disciplines, in different places and times? And what are the ethical, political and methodological implications of this? To find out more about how participants from a variety of disciplines and contexts have engaged with the choices and challenges of teaching and studying religion, join us on 15 December at the British Sociological Association Meeting Room in London, for a BSA Socrel symposium, chaired by Abby Day (Department of Religious Studies, University of Kent and Department of Anthropology, University of Sussex) and Anna Strahan (Department of Religious Studies, University of Kent). We are grateful to the Higher Education Academy for funding. It won’t be your usual ‘stand-and-deliver’ event. Our presenters have worked hard to condense their work into short summaries that will be distributed to all participants in advance of the day. All participants will be expected to read the summaries and come prepared for a full day of engaging in vibrant exchanges across disciplines, countries, methods and other conventional boundaries. The keynote lecture will be given by Adam Dinham, Director of Goldsmiths Faith and Civil Society Unit and Programme Director for the ‘Religious Literacy Leadership in Higher Education’ programme. theologyphilosophycentre.co.uk Другие публикации на портале: © 2007-2024 Портал Богослов.Ru.
