Lochotron for the poor in spirit

As already reported, the Moscow Government deprived the Moscow Society of Krishna Consciousness of the allocated land for the construction of the Temple. In this situation it is difficult to resist the temptation to speculate about which churches and religions are needed and useful, and which are not necessary and harmful to Moscow and Muscovites in particular, as well as to Russia and the peoples living in it as a whole.

From the actions of the capital city governors it becomes clear that the Hindu and Buddhist temples in Moscow are not needed. And new mosques, in the construction of which Muslims are denied, as Buddhists and Hare Krishnas refuse to erect their holy places, are also not needed. But the churches of the ROC MP, even though their domes are already generously adorned with the capital, you need at least two hundred more. For Russia is an Orthodox country. And do not talk about the Constitution, which captures the secular nature of a multinational and multi-confessional state of Russia. You are not on the ugly West God, who, being devoid of the highest revelation, the highest truth, has come up with the Constitution and now has to live by it. In the "god-inspired" country of slaves, the land of masters is different. Here the ball is not ruled by Law and justice, but nepotism and other kinship, a little friendship and a very palpable bribe.

Wherever the Law rules, no officials would dare to easily take the land from an organization that, having believed the documents issued to them on this land, invested huge amounts of money in the future construction. For wherever the Law rules, and not the whim of the master, the organization would return a hundredfold money to itself through the court. And they would be responsible for this, either by a purse or by deprivation of a comfortable office chair careless, trampled officials who for many years fooled the organization with their heads. But in Russia, no payoff for negligence and irresponsibility threatens the civil servant. For he serves not the law, he is an obedient part of a huge corporation called Lochotron. And the whole story of the construction of the Vedic cultural center, of which the Krishna Temple was to be a part, is only a scam for the blessed, for the poor in spirit. And now, having lost time and money, they will be comforted by the fact that they are the Kingdom of Heaven. And the earthly kingdom belongs to another, the most "traditional" confession.

Here you are - not there. Here there are no officials in their classical understanding. Here there is a bar and boyars, which are their own law. They want to - they caress, they want - they cut it (the poet appealed, so that he could avoid all the sorrows, and the anger of the land, and the lordly love). Therefore, the question of why in the secular state, some can build (with the budget money) hundreds of temples, and others - not one, is not only inappropriate, but also stupid. The answer to it is one. And he does not even sound like an answer, but as an irritated, menacing cry: "Because!"

Meanwhile, it is necessary for the Russian bureaucrat to motivate his decisions, even formally, in order to unsubscribe. In the case of the ban on building temples, the answer is also one: "the locals are against." A convincing, in principle, argument. But I would very much like to see it, regardless of specific Russian realities, equally applied to all citizens of the Russian Federation, and not selectively, as is done now.

For the fact that Tomsk, now, ex-Ombudsman Nelly Krechetova defended the interests of local residents who are against the construction of the church of the Russian Orthodox Church MP, she was not easily accused of "anti-Orthodox position". Those to whom the law is not written, terminated prematurely her powers as a defender of the humiliated and insulted. But such punishment does not threaten those who can be suspected of being "anti-Muslim", "anti-Buddhist", "anti-Catholic", "anti-Krishna" (hereinafter, all but the ROC MP, religions and denominations that officially exist in Russia) can be automatically listed.

Why does not the government listen to all "local residents"? They, after all, here and there are opposing the construction of Orthodox churches, but they are still building them. Residents of a huge country, for example, opposed the current composition of the Duma, which, in their opinion, was chosen illegally. But no one is punished for this, the Duma is not re-elected. And "locals" are against Putin being president, which they constantly say at numerous rallies. Why do they not listen to their opinion (and millions behind it) do not fulfill their desire? But the desire of a handful of marginalized by the Orthodox priest for a protest against the Krishna Temple is readily supported by the Moscow Government (on the Internet one can look at the cultural and intellectual level of the protesters).

The fact that such local residents are against the Hare Krishnas and their Temple is not surprising. It would be strange if they were "for". For Orthodox nationalists who have nothing to do with Jesus, who are tormented by the question of whom they love more, Christ or Hitler (one of the quasi-patriots confessed this), the message of the Vedas and the Cultural Center that preaches it are really dangerous. For the Vedas say that man has no other enemies, except his own ignorance, which is the cause of all his problems, all his troubles. And with such an understanding of the essence of things popular among the Orthodox ideas of racial and national superiority, the conviction that you are the master of the country and even lands, hatred of non-Russians and non-believers is unlikely to find broad understanding and support.

Not only from the point of view of the fascist ideology, but also of "traditional values" and the economy that is operating on them, the Vedic Cultural Center, and even the Krishna Temple that is enclosed in its walls, is very dangerous for "local residents". Well, imagine, they will start to go there and there they will learn sobriety, vegetarianism, wean from smoking and other bad habits. What will happen to Russia? What will happen to alcohol and tobacco tycoons? And how the drug dealers will suffer, because the Vaishnavas (Krishnas), contrary to the stupid slanderous rumors spread by unscrupulous people, do not deny that from illegal drugs, but also from legalized by the state, that is, from tobacco and alcohol. The strictest of them do not even drink tea and coffee, do not eat chocolate, because there is a small dose of drugs (theine, caffeine), which also leads to addiction. The motto and goal of the Krishnaites is to become independent of any enslaving factors of the material world! Even - oh, horror! - From sex. Not that he was banned from them. To create families and give birth to children the ancient Indian Vedas, the philosophy and culture of which the followers of Krishna are oriented, are even prescribed to man. But to those who are engaged in yoga (Vaishnavas are committed to the practice of bhakti-yoga), they very much do not recommend not to start lovers, but even to engage in intimate abuse within the family.

But now tell me: is it necessary for any government on earth, especially Russian, non-drinkers, non-smokers, not eating meat, abstained from sex yoga? Imagine what will become of the budget, replenished at the expense of the health of citizens with alcohol and tobacco money? What will happen to the meat industry, if only 5-10% of Russians believe in the idea of ahimsa, the nonviolence preached by the Buddha, Christ (the "do not kill" commandment), and now the same hated Krishnas are preaching who, being vegetarians, refrain from Fast food - and, therefore, cleaned - all year round? And what will happen to the entertainment industry, which the Hare Krishnas and those who accept their values also ignore? Because they like to listen and sing the mantra of Hare Krishna, and not the songs of Alla Pugacheva or Dima Belan? The government needs such "local residents" -not drinkers, non-smoking vegetarians, who are engaged in health prevention through yoga and ayurveda (another hit by the pharmacological mafia)?

Another thing is the most traditional confession, the hierarchy of which not only drinks vodka, but the flock of its green snake along with the tobacco is regularly supplied. Here is a citizen Gundyaev, for example, who has made a fortune by selling vodka and tobacco to the people - this is his boyfriend. And your patriarch in the board. And his religious practice, which does not require the beautiful words of the sermon to be in accordance with daily affairs, is very suitable for "local people". Eat, drink everything, have fun! The main thing is that the vector of your life coincides with the direction given by which party and what government is known. So that you do not deviate from anything in any way, even if it is vicious and kills you.

So the Krishnaites, in this situation of the forces and interests of any Cultural Center, do not see any Temple in Moscow. They have only one way out: be patient and humble (good, these qualities are worshiped in any spiritual tradition), and just wait. Sing Hare Krishna, Hare Rama and wait. Wait until with the blessing of the Orthodox hierarchs, the life of their supporters of the idea that drinking in Russia was and will be, because it is traditional, "sacred" fun, "locals" almost all will not die out of drunkenness (see statistics on mortality of Russians From alcoholism). And then, when the most reasonable of them - and therefore survivors of the genocide - will recollect, horrified and frightened for the fate of their children, for the fate of the dying Russian people, the Hare Krishnas can begin to build their Temple and Center of Vedic culture. "Local residents" who won the war, which the government and Moscow Orthodoxy are waging against them, will help build the Temple. A temple in which you can purify your heart and your life from ignorance and delusion, no matter how traditional they seem; From bad, destructive for the body and soul habits, no matter how common, which were not natural.

So, whatever one may say, the ROC MP, despite its attempts to put the Hare Krishnas, like other "non-traditional" religions and confessions, is outlawed, is their ally. For, not giving an example of a healthy, righteous life and, thereby, contributing to the demise of the Russian people and Russia, involuntarily brings the triumph and glory of those who are able to give the people and the country an example of a worthy person of life.

Sounds, of course, pathetic. But pathos is inappropriate - for false - where there is no love and compassion, and there is only their imitation. In the religion of love, which the Vaisnavas profess (like true Christians), one can not do without it. I want to believe that the followers of Krishna have enough love and compassion for everyone. Their imitation and without them enough.
