Sun City
This settlement you will not find on any map of the world. In fact, the correct name of the place - the Abode of Dawn. The phrase "Sun City" is invented by journalists. Until recently, the "Resident" was nowhere to be officially registered as a village, but now it's kind of like was considered remote districts of the village Zharovsk.
1. Sun City from the top of the mountain Dry. They live in settlements exclusively followers of the Church of the Last Testament. Sun City was conceived as a unique ecological settlement, in which humans live in harmony with nature and to develop spiritually in harmony with the teachings of Vissarion.
Vissarion's followers often try to get out of the villages in the district (Peter and Paul Fortress, Cheremshanka Gulyaevka etc.) And ride in the City of the Sun on the liturgy and meeting with teachers themselves (so-called Vissarion). To get to the promised place, first we drove 80 km along the dirt road to the village of Peter and Paul Fortress Kuraginsky District of the Krasnoyarsk Territory, and then survived two o'clock bumps on the road to gruzovike- "vahtovke» («Star-266» Polish production). The last three kilometers walked.
All visiting pilgrims from neighboring villages and guests lodge in a camp. Tents are no not at all, it is detached from the settlement of a group of wooden houses. And men spend the night on the first floor, and women - in the second (it does not matter whether composed of M and M married). Here in the camp there is a dining room, where we were fed three times a day.
Plan Sun City at the entrance of one of the houses. In its settlement plan repeats the so-called Star of Bethlehem with fourteen rays - a symbol of Vissarion (January 14 - the birthday of Vissarion), and the streets are poetic names: the Milky Way, Children's dreams, Moon flowers, gentle dreams, the eternal quest, the solar wind, Diamond grew , crystal gates, wood spirits, mischievous rainy shimmer secrets, Silver Springs, Singing Mountain, Star field.
All newcomers necessarily familiar with the rules of life in the community: here do not eat meat and fish ("do not eat lethal food"), do not smoke, do not drink al * Ogol and swearing ("do not use words that carry negative images").
Sam Sun City is not no city, and a small village. Population - only about 40 families.
There are no power lines, each house has solar panels. When you need to include any powerful devices - run generators. C using satellite dishes watch television and access to the Internet.
Many greenhouses and large gardens, where each family must provide a fully foods. To supply the children with milk and eggs keep goats and chickens.
The most unusual item in the city, which immediately catches the eye - no fences between sites. Also not seen or heard of guard dogs.
In the city center there is a wooden sculpture of an angel - vissarionovtsami interpreted as a symbol of their faith. This place is holy. Here, getting around the sculpture of an angel, a morning, Sundays and public liturgy. And this is the only place where caught weak cellular signal.
One of the first houses in the city of the sun. If you are trying to avoid the construction of synthetic materials - foam and other.
Sunday morning. All visitors, pilgrims pass through an arch in the city and go to the center, where they join the rest of the residents. The inscription on the arch - "Take hope ye who enter here." Everyone who comes in, makes a bow.
Everyone gathers in the circle - the main square - to go along to a sacred mountain to the liturgy.
The priests performed the service, members of the congregation sing songs, pray. "Let there be light and peace to heaven. Let there be light and peace to all living beings ».
We had a little behind the procession to the clicks of cameras and our conversations no one distracted.
In the enchanting forest begins the ascent to the mountain Dry, where the "Heavenly Abode" and "Altar of the Earth».
Raising enough smooth, serpentine trail goes even go to people under the age is not difficult. Periodically, the process stops and sings psalms. Any resident, by the way, can offer to perform a psalm of his own. If it is approved, it will perform the liturgy instead of some other.
About halfway, we saw the temple under construction, and several homes.
There on the hillside live people who are engaged in the construction of a new church. This place is called "Heavenly Abode».
Finally we reached the top of the mountain and went to the "Altar of the Earth." She sings a capella choir, the priest reads the prayer ... What is happening is not like the service in the Orthodox Church, the feeling is that this is all happening in some fantasy world, so this action is unusual. Moreover, the people are dressed in bright clothes.
"Altar of the Earth" - an easy and elegant structure, within which there are symbols of the four world religions (the union of all religions on earth - one of the ideas the doctrine of Vissarion).
Prayer at the altar of the earth lasts about half an hour. Then everyone starts way back.
Before you start to go down, we are lagging behind and the procession went to the observation deck next to the bell tower. With this bell tower five times a day the bell tolls.
From the observation deck next to the bell tower offers fantastic views of the surrounding area.
In the photo - Lake Tiberkul.
Beautiful place people choose to build their society.
Ridge Kryzhina.
At the end of the event everyone is going to the arena, which is called the Valley of the Merger. In a separate path from his home himself Vissarion comes and sits on the wooden throne with an umbrella. There is a so-called "fusion" - first all pray together, break bread, and then teacher responds to questions from the audience, there is an informal communication. Sometimes Vissarion for various reasons does not come, as in our case, because this time it limited only to the breaking of bread.
All the costs of their business.
While walking and observing the liturgy we were accompanied by Ruslan. He answered all our tricky questions about religion and life in the city. Ruslan on education - physics and mathematics, he says, that the device of their society and religion preached here seen it logical, everything is in harmony with its physical and mathematical mind. Ruslan came to the monastery from Izhevsk 11 years ago. After the liturgy, he invited them to his house where his wife gave us a herbal tea, incredibly delicious goat cheese and bread baked in the Russian stove.
On weekends, Ruslan came to visit cousins.
"We want to create a city that others saw the person must live in the land - in harmony with nature and spirit».
