they put these questions with themselves, they turn to the priests with these questions, they try to get an answer to them, but the content of the confession has somehow changed, you know, but this confession exists. yes, so we can not disclose here somehow. uh. i can say that here are repentant feelings, maybe it has become deeper , because a person is faced with death. he understands that the unknown awaits him ahead of him; mothers and sisters. temple, but

really people come to pray. to god for help, since it feels a great need for this, your department is the synodal missionary department, how its tasks have changed with the start of a special war operation in the task of our e departments is not only missionary, understood as the preaching of faith, but also opposition to all kinds of false teachings by sects by some kind of spiritual delusion. and in this sense, a very important task, and well, in general, of our church, and in particular the synodal missionary department, is to counteract neo-nazism and neodicism, which let there be color. uh, thrives here in the territory from the limit state. i mean ukraine but, unfortunately. similar

trends are also observed in our country, just , uh, maybe not yet to such a bright degree. they are expressed here in russia and in ukraine, this led to the emergence of a man of a hateful ideology, in fact, to the revival of fascism. well, uh, my generation was kind of growing up. in the sense that fascism is a phenomenon already overcome by humanity. maybe it was the impression that people would never come back to it. however, we observe, uh, on the example of ukraine, that uh, unfortunately, these tares have sprouted again and given their bitter poisonous poisonous fruits. and, of course. this is one of the most important tasks of the modern mission, it has an effective opposition. eh, this sectarianism. non-paganism, the fruit of which very often

is neo-nazism and niofashism, but not well , every second one speaks about nazism in ukraine, well, in the church for sure, and not among paganism, which is manifested in ukraine now, but the fact is that what is at the heart of neo-nazi, uh, ideologies lie precisely pagan, coolies, paganism, yes, that is, e deification of the nation, what is nazism is the deification of the nation? that is, it is the idea of ​​the superiority of one nation over another , you understand, if uh, the scriptures. uh, the new testament tells us that in christ there is no greek, no jew, and no male or female. yes, then this kind of ideology, just the same, speaks of the superiority of a particular nation over other nations, you understand, that is, these ideas have a very definite

, pronounced, and cult pagan character, simply not everyone knows about it. and this is precisely the task of orthodox missionaries to tell people about this. no, we have this in russia, uh, many cults of this kind are on the rise, unfortunately, they even supported by some political forces, for example, e. well, here is one of the congresses recently. such a neo-pagan organization was visited by representatives of the communist party and even its physical organization. unfortunately, i don't remember now. it’s for sure that this information is in the public domain, but i was just extremely surprised, but this, uh, this is an organization that, so to speak, e preach some, well, again, a cult of a cult of power, a cult of greetings. here, uh, it means that

hmm, the source of the spiritual strength of the russian nation are some pagan cults, well, such are the things. it upsets you that so many young people have left the country not to upset you on the one hand on the other. we are trying in this form, too, some kind of act of god's providence, because you know how after the revolution, many people left soviet russia for various reasons, but in an interesting way, being abroad. these are the people who, even while in russia , were far from the church. they realized that our russian tradition is inextricably linked with orthodoxy. that's why now many people left under the influence of various factors, someone got scared, someone in this way infected their

protest against well-known events. yes, but how the fate of these people will develop hmm is unknown. i know that many have already been disappointed in this choice. many of us have already returned or are at least going to do so. so, honestly, i would not somehow dramatize this situation, but they left to return, and you are not embarrassed by the amount of quality that left and is not going to return. what does quality mean people with higher education, foreign language consciousness, specialists, many received visas, talents, artists gladly accepted them with open arms in europe in america. well, you know how? well, this is a free choice of people no one has kicked out. you see, no one made any obstacles, if they felt that it was necessary to do so, but please, they exercised their right to this choice. eh,

i repeat that after all, it is not the same thing for a russian person to live in russia to live abroad. you know, when we live uh, on our land, when there are temples and monasteries around us, but we constantly come into contact with works of church art. whether it 's icons or music, something else, and it seems to us, something like this for granted. maybe even, uh, tired of already stuffed muscovite, maybe outdated, yes. but try to live a long time abroad, as they say, without confusing tourism with emigration, you understand one thing to go there for a couple. del on vacation in some kind of tour, and another thing is to live in another country, according to other laws, according to other principles. and right here, uh very often there is some kind of sobering up. that's

why, uh, i repeat. here are many people. i just served abroad myself, and i know what i'm talking about. we have parishes of our church practically, well, in all countries of the world. yes , therefore, god forbid, that these people would also receive spiritual support and draw some conclusions for themselves on dmitry medvedev's call to russia not to let back the russians who left after the announcement of partial mobilization. yes, you know, i think that dmitry anatolyevich medvedev said it like any person here. this opinion is influenced some emotions on the one hand. well, yes, of course, it is unpleasant for us that some of our fellow citizens have left somewhere. and even more so if they somehow comment on the keys of the events of social and political life in an unpleasant way for us. well, you know people, there are people and hmm we all

change, you know, that is, those people who left, they can change their point of view. uh. you know, in one of the prayers with the liturgy of st. basil the great, there are such words, god is evil, good creation. well, that is, lord, make sure that evil people get off with, well, so good thinkers, that's why. uh, but i, frankly, am not a supporter of some kind of tough measures in this regard. i think that it was done very correctly that the borders were not thrown. and who was against and, let 's say, who was not ready to accept. here is the development of events. but please, uh, look for, well, yourself those places where you will be better comfortable and more comfortable. and there the lord will leave everything in its place. i honestly would not be in a

hurry to adopt such laws. you personally, for yourself, as it were, determined the main the church main soviet event of 22 years, of course, 2022 entered the history of our country, like, hmm, the year of some such renewal of russia, yes, this renewal took place through very painful such things through the start of a special military operation, but we see against this background, what really and hmm and power and society. many are very people. e. indeed, they realize the value of those spiritual and moral principles on which russia has stood for centuries and which, of course, in the last 30 years, but somehow were on

some periphery of public life. these are the principles that are very clearly formulated in the presidential decree of november 9, 2022 on the preservation and strengthening of traditional spiritual and moral values. there they are all directly listed, this is the traditional family, that is, the traditional relationship between a man and a woman. this is patriotism, love for the motherland, solidarity, public mutual assistance. well , these are, as it were, basic things that for a long time seemed to us to be taken for granted, but lately all of a sudden it turned out that not all. uh, not everyone wants to understand these principles, not everyone shares them. someone, so to speak, is trying to plant on our

soil, some alien principles, yes, which are rejected by the vast majority of the people. this is what we are talking about, and you know, of course, i don’t know, but in my opinion, if it weren’t for these uh, of course, such sad mournful events associated with u military operations, but it’s unlikely, uh, our supreme the authorities reacted so quickly and so, uh, clearly formulated hmm, these are the things that russian orthodox church. e, she always spoke, but not always her voice was, uh, heard in the russian orthodox church. for example, your department. eh, missionary. what is the plan horizon? special warfare operations well, you know, but, but we don't plan our work based on the timing of this or that operation, right? e our we just we

we proceed from the fact that our main task is to spread the orthodox faith to testify about it to all people, uh, who wish to join it, and to convey to them in an understandable and basic doctrinal principles in a language accessible to them. well, in a practical sense, i did a lot this year. uh, in terms of humanitarian assistance to residents, refugees are undoubtedly in new territories. and that's why the question is probably your planning horizon and to-do list. he somehow changed for the 23rd year of your department. what are the priorities ? what are the priorities? i already told them about them. this is an explanation to society of danger. attraction, uh, neo-pagan ideas, this is the main thing, uh, this is the main our task. that's it in the context of a special

military operation, because as it turned out, these sprouts. uh, nazism, fascism, they sprout and give very bitter and sad fruits, but among certain groups of young people, including such ideas, they remain popular and in demand. yes, therefore, of course, it is very important to explain not only to young people, but to their parents, so that they, too, would be on the alert and would carefully watch what their children are interested in. and on which sites sites they spend hours. sorry hang on the internet. here is what i would like to do in this regard. to pay attention, means to the danger of the next kind, the danger of the spread of the ideology of the so-called columbine is uh, so to speak with this term. e is marked. here

is the practice of killing innocent children of school students. this is again a very specific sectarian ideology that is spreading through the relevant communities on the internet of suicide not only itself and murder and suicide. that is, in the classical columban. here is the massacre, it is should end in the suicide of the person who commits it in practice . it happens in different ways, but it cannot but be alarming. that in recent years the number of such incidents in our country. the presentation of a book, lunch and a novel by anatolyevich silantyev, which is just the one that is

dedicated to this phenomenon, has recently increased greatly in our department. this is a terrible phenomenon, and it has become widespread in our society. you know, about 15-20 years ago we heard, and that such things take place somewhere across the ocean usa means somewhere in europe uh, but it seemed to us that it would never affect us. we somehow know, like this, we rested on our laurels, thinking, well, how is this impossible in russia, perhaps, and we see that this is the last or one of the last cases, please, there in izhevsk means a school there they shot there in perm well a lot of those. yes, that's why such things are not because a person came m. for some kind of injury inflicted by teachers, you understand there is a manual. that is, there is a technology for preparing, uh, similar mass killings. here's a person, let

's even say that some student was offended there by the director and the teacher. do you think he 'll go right away? uh, so to speak, uh and learn. this violence needs to be taught to him, he needs to be explained. uh, where to get a weapon, what kind of weapon is better to use, then how best to prepare all this, judging by this, there are detailed instructions, yes, which are distributed through such closed communities. and uh, so to speak, an appropriate uh ideology is being introduced. that's in the minds of these teenagers. uh, of course it's done here emphasis on the fact that on some kind of their e ulcerative pride. yes, that is, they are invited to become, you know, some kind of heroes, these are very dangerous things. it is simply not necessary to think that such phenomena arise

spontaneously, nothing like these phenomena are of a systemic nature. a well-known center where the relevant instructions come from, where the relevant training manuals are being prepared, all this is already known. and fortunately , law enforcement agencies also have this information today. yes, and right here . here we are very closely interact. you see, because this is already a question of spiritual security, the year has become a record year for the state duma. a record number of laws have been adopted throughout the existence of the parliament. which of them would you highlight? for which of these laws are you grateful as a deputy, as a representative of the church, i admit that i do not follow the law on creative activity so closely. well , of course, some legislative initiatives

cannot get past the clergy, but i would answer two laws. which were adopted already at the end of 2022, this is the law about the ban on lgbt propaganda - this is what, well, also, uh, directly, let's say so, affects the spiritual atmosphere in society. uh, and this law can certainly be, uh, approved. uh, all church people, i guess. but another law caused, a certain even excitement is, uh, well, i’ll just say to the law of biometrics, somehow it can be called hmm the text is somewhat different uh, and thank god that when adopting this law, the position of the russian orthodox church was nevertheless taken into account , may not be fully, but nevertheless were taken into account

the concerns of orthodox people, which hmm, well, they don’t want to be completely, so to speak, identified by their personalities exclusively. here are such modern digital technologies, any citizen of russia has every right to refuse biometrics. that is, he can, uh, so to speak, be identified by well, in traditional ways, what do you think about the ban on foreigners to use, yes, russian surrogacy services are definitely for this law. but it's really necessary to understand that this is a business, uh, on the blood and babies and women, you know, that's a fact. uh, this is the situation that existed before the adoption of this law provoked. well things are completely unacceptable

from a spiritual point of view. sorry when just uh woman. e, it was perceived as some kind of incubator for the production of a child, so to speak. but this does not contradict this, in general, the whole idea of ​​​​all traditional religions on motherhood about the role of a woman, in general in society, you understand, this, well, there’s not even anything to talk about, so thank god that this law was adopted. and how then against the backdrop of this, to the proposals that have now been announced exempt from the fee for the storage of biomaterials of spermatozoa mobilized by russia so that wives can use it, how does the church look at it? to be honest, this is not the first time i hear about this, but in general the church still advocates that issues, let's say, the

reproduction of the human race, be resolved in a natural way. i'll say it like this. it 's very simple, as simple as a person, as a priest. i'm not an expert in the field, yes, but how uh pasta, uh, i can say that uh, a huge number of problems in the family and in the personal life of a person. e, it arises, in case he tries to use these modern technologies to solve these issues, he wants to take care of the mobilized young people who cannot remove their home from the family in marital life. let the experts give their opinion on this. i understand that, of course, the death of her husband in the war. this is a tragedy for any woman. but on the other

hand, you understand, this is not the first a war in which russia is taking part, well, you have to be realistic, you can condemn the war. of course, we do it, we condemn it, but the reality of our fallen world is such that the existence of mankind is inevitably accompanied by warriors and conflicts, including military ones, and therefore we must simply proceed from this. uh, we must understand that this is a kind of burden in our lives. we must pray fervently and strongly that our loved ones do not perish. uh, and if the irreparable happened, so that the lord would somehow help, well, arrange your life. and i can tell only that such prayers never go unanswered. they are a panacea for all troubles, but prayer gives

a person the spiritual strength to overcome the trials that inevitably befall each of us . you see. e. take an example. uh, the gospel, two thieves were crucified next to christ. so one of them is not accidentally called prudent, because already being on the cross. he realized the depth of his fall and realized that e christ who was developed next to him. this is the true god , the true man, and he glorified him as god and the other continued to blaspheme continued to be dissatisfied with everything and eventually one inherited. eternal life, and the second destruction, that's all. so, this is an eternal image for all time and you just need to read the gospel of the holy scriptures more carefully, thank you very much

for inviting me. when talking about india, one of the first things that comes to mind is, of course, indian cuisine. parents are residents of the channel russia 24. i look forward to seeing you. there were four of them, they gathered thousands of halls urgently.
