purely on the clique of saints, because her prayer, e, veneration in penza is very, very far away. it is amazing how many russian orthodox pilgrims ended up in the holy land and in past times and now many people flock here, in order to turn to god in these special moments with a prayer, because here is the procession that is now beginning, it marks a lot of starting. uh, still that path, which is the royal path, which the lord began the past, sunday, which it is called the week is true, sunday, when jerusalem greeted him as a king, as a liberator from a hated risk , pastila branches, palm trees, according to the tradition of this accident, a sign that e has finally come and

now only a few days pass and there is no one. the gate to intercede for the saviors passes for several days and already the insane crowd is shouting, strife. crucify him. that is, we remember. this is the royal procession, which turns out to be the sixth on dolgov, that procession of the cross, which is now taking place on one side. it is also a burial the savior, and on the other hand, and the beginning of his resurrection, and on sunday, of course, this is a mystery, which, uh, is part of the faith of every person, because it is absolutely impossible to rationally explain it, it is absolutely impossible to prove, it is scientifically or somehow substantiated. this is the question that

each person can solve only for himself by turning to god. this is a personal meeting with god, of course, it should happen for every christian on the day of resurrection, therefore, starting the procession with all power, we must remember, on the one hand, this triumph of the savior, his earthly humiliation and, ultimately, which are saving for the whole person. slowly, the procession of the cross is advancing, despite all the restrictions of the pilgrims. uh, a lot of collas, uh, help. please note that hmm is in the procession. e no e no one from the israel security service, here e the monks

of the holy brotherhood of the sepulcher represent e, and e, the kavass they protect their patriarch, not e, he is kept in a ring so that the patriarch can to make a procession, well, or flying uh, prayer in the process of the holy fire when the threefold circumambulation and we know that the number three it is special for everyone. e , christians, we know these special events, e, well, we have not yet seen this on the screens, but we know that representatives of the armenian coptic and syrian clergy. before flying, they took e, a blessing from the patriarch of philosophy, kissing his hand. they also took the blessing to participate in this ceremony. by the way, saying, hmm more,

well, for thousands of years. uh hmm muslims are always very, uh, watching the timing of the holy fire, and uh , usually. hmm. well, there it is. uh, evidence of an arabic uh source. beruni is the thousandth year. e where he described how one cathedral mosque of jerusalem, the imam and the world governor of jerusalem, e, came to the temple, sat down at the coffin on sunday of the cross and then wrote a report to the capital of the caliphate. e-e about how the descent of fire proceeded and e-e for the speed of the descent. uh, they concluded about the harvest or crop failure. uh, this year and these

signs, they hmm were preserved among, uh the arab population of jerusalem and palestine is still at the beginning of the 20th century, but it’s hard to say now, how it will affect the harvest with uh, the current development of agriculture, but uh, i’m sure that here is the last 1.5 hours for all people, were in the temple. eh, very, very exciting. well, firmly convinced that with the ascent of the blessed fire. and maybe for some time the well-being of this earthly world will be connected, it certainly exists, that while the fire. the lord is coming down and gives us time to so that we can repent, so that we can cope, so that, uh, we can really dedicate our lives, uh, to something more

important than in our earthly affairs, something more important than just some formal observance of certain rituals in those cases when we do this, there we illuminate into the water or shine, and so that we understand what is behind this. when does a person turn to god when he reads the gospel when he participates in the sacraments? he, of course, unites with god , and meeting with god is, of course, the most the main thing in the life of every person. probably, m-m father andrey e you with your experience of participating in the broadcast. you can say that probably, but every time it remains unpredictable the escaping of the blessed fire. we are waiting, uh, and each time we hope that this will happen, but quickly, but the sources say that the prayer

of the patriarch. sometimes it took up to several hours. and that too was that was also very very difficult. but uh, when they show us the patriarch, we uh, we can see his concentration, his m-m his prayerful mood. and now, and we all turn only to him. here, as if we had done everything depended on us and dependent and e, now e have betrayed themselves into his hands and only now from him. ah, our fate depends. this is what it feels like now. well, the procession of the cross from ancient times was part of a special worship service, which was not performed anywhere else but around. now, when

the surrounding passage will come to an end, and the patriarch and the 12 archimadrites who accompany him, they stand in front of the doors of the limit angel. in front of the gates, the silent prayer of light must be in time, that is, the prayer that is usually performed at the evening service. that is, this is part of the evening, well, which is included in the insipid process of feeding the holy fire nowhere, perhaps, such a service is more perfect in the world. so what we are seeing now is a unique event that takes place only once a year at the lord jerusalem group. well, in general, the first to describe this service in uh. in our church was alexei afanasyevich dmitrievsky

a well-known liturgist and and e, domestic and e, secretary of the imperial orthodox palestinian society, he twice attended the flying of the e, holy fire and e, described it by inserting it into the jerusalem typikon. well, traditionally, as we always say, and always in prayer next to the goblet and russian pilgrims participate, and now in the plot we will see the meeting that took place on the eve of his holiness, patriarch blessed patriarch theophilus. and you know, we have small changes, we hmm because everything is changing live, and we had a meeting in russian spiritual mission in jerusalem e, where e is

the representative of e. damn, bishop konstantin of zaraisk, vicar, his holiness patriarch of moscow and all russia, who arrived from moscow , together with the head of the russian spiritual mission , archimandrites alexander, prayed for the unity of the orthodox church. delegation a in the forest reads a traditional prayer. ask for the peace of jerusalem - these are the words from psalm 121, which is also a special prayer throughout the world. naturally, we pray, in our troubled difficult times, for our brothers in russia in ukraine and we want peace to come. yes and you you see, uh, the trinity cathedral of the russian spiritual mission.
