“Wealth without work Pleasure without conscience Science without humanity Knowledge without character Politics without principle Commerce without morality Worship without sacrifice. https://vidjambov.blogspot.com/2023/01/book-inventory-vladimir-djambov-talmach.html True, modern youth has little in common with this line of attention: condemnation and criticism are more attractive to it, but the one who would have discerned the means for self-development and wisdom would be bitterly mistaken. To condemn and mock, it will never take a lot of wisdom and the thought of such an observer of life will not be enriched. The path of that philosopher who knows how to find the good in the environment and to monitor its development and consequences is much more difficult, but also more fruitful. Not only will he be enriched by experience, but the very good through his sympathetic attention will grow around him and strengthen.

“Wealth without work Pleasure without conscience Science without humanity Knowledge without character Politics without principle Commerce without morality Worship without sacrifice. https://vidjambov.blogspot.com/2023/01/book-inventory-vladimir-djambov-talmach.html In our Russian public life, it was just such a fall as in the life of Peter. One writer, who fought against the enemies of Christ by the power of philosophical and then apologetic research, was apparently upset that the truth itself conquers the enemies so slowly and so imperceptibly. It was probably bitter for him to see Christ's faith neglected by high society and trampled down with impunity by the nihilists-depraving youths - and now , instead of working through spiritual grace and science, to achieve such spiritual gifts through the grace of God, before which the wiles of the enemies of Christ would fall, this thinker began to think about the organization of such public church-state orders in which no one could enslave or insult the churchin which the power of the church would act unhindered and triumphantly defeated its enemies. If he had learned and taught us for this purpose to become Chrysostom or Gregory, to acquire the love of John the Theologian or the power of the Apostle Paul, - oh, then who would not thank him? But he began to look for other means, state dispensations, he drew a sword, like Peter, and perishes noting lies and ruins his followers. He fell into that terrible pit of delusions, where any zealot of the church would naturally fall out of reason; he gradually and consistently began to lean toward the doctrine that elevated violence into law, into that terrible ditch of papism, which, having begun to be jealous of Christ outwardly, expelled Him from his society, and put the sinful man in place of Christ. Now we have to state the very rebirth of man, according to Dostoevsky, from the side of the influence of one will on another. Our writer has a very conscious view of this subject; he is not limited to an artistically correct, but impartial description of two or three cases of conversion, like Leo Tolstoy in his last two novels, where the heroes, like Levin, Bezukhov and Volynsky, under very vague influences come to uncertain results, having established themselves firmly only in condemnation of former selfishness and determination to follow a compassionate feeling. True, there is a considerable artistic and philosophical merit in this, so Tolstoy himself looks at such types as the most important in his work, but they are in his thick novels, like two or three odorous violets in a huge bouquet of beautiful, but devoid of zapaxa flowers: Dostoevsky’s as said, all primary and secondary heroes revolve around their conscience and call for repentance and renewal, as many planets circle in different orbits around one sun. Let us add now that the striking richness of the content of his many stories is not created by the heterogeneity of types and the differences between the described areas of their inner life, no, his planets are not numerous and the orbits of the revolutions remain the same, but the artist, painting in different stories and in different faces the same types, it changes their position in the orbit of life, that is, when they turn to the moral sun either on one or the other side. One and the same character, but in different positions and ages, at different levels of his conversion, or, on the contrary, bitterness, goes through a dozen stories with him, so Raskolnikov is the same Ivan Karamazov, the Old Prince of the "Humiliated" is the same Fedor Pavlovich Karamazov and Versilov, the mother of Raskolnikov and the mother of the Teenager, the father of the latter and Stavrogin "Demons", the husband of "Krotkoy" and the husband Akulkin in "Dead House, ”etc., etc., are all variants of several few types. Dostoevsky also has few plots with the plot and denouement, whether there are a dozen or so plots and types - hardly. And if for all that the reader not only does not notice the repetitions and does not feel bored when reading his stories, but, on the contrary, becomes even more interested in them, the more he has already read them: then it is clear that the variety of material that has manifested itself in such a variety of materials all stages of spiritual development, this kind of table of multiplication of a polynomial by a polynomial, executed by the author sinfully: in other words, he was able, with complete life truth, to depict the whole ladder of spiritual struggle with each direction of his own type, and this is only given to someone who combines an artist with a connoisseur of the laws of the phenomena described, that is, a psychologist and even a theologian . For the reader who wants to check the author, the completeness of his essays is especially convenient because it completely eliminates the suspicion of an accidental, individual character of one or other changes in the inner life of literary heroes, but gives the author’s foundations just mathematical convincingness: if all characters are of different ages, genders and provisions, thus referring to the well-known call of life, came to complete inner harmony and began to bring happiness and love everywhere, referring the opposite about instantly, became on the road to suicide, and from the middle path they were opposed by will against their own system of their own nature: it is clear and mathematically incontrovertible that the first path is the right path, the only one saving, etc. The same certainty of views is established by Dostoevsky on the question of the reviving influence of one will on another , and it will not be difficult to verify that, based on such certainty, the author has some theological and matephysical ideas, although, as said, does not subordinate them to reality, but deduces the first from the last one, or even himself does not output, and unconsciously guided by them in their creative work, to authorize the following conclusions readers themselves.

On Resistance to Evil by Force
Author: Ivan Ilyin
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781726472043
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
Written in 1925, On Resistance to Evil by Force is one of the most important tracts composed by white émigré philosopher Ivan Alexandrovich Ilyin. Responding to the pacifist pretentions of Count Leo Tolstoy, Ilyin mounts a tenacious defence of the Orthodox tradition of physical opposition to evil. As he explains, in the face of evil which can be contained by no other means, a forceful response is not only permissible, but becomes a knightly duty. Further, heroic courage consists not only in recognising this duty, but in bearing its heavy moral burden without fear. In his own time, Ilyin penned this guide for the exiled Russian White Army in its continued resistance against the godless Bolsheviks, yet while the world has developed since the civil war which he lived through, Christians everywhere can still find great relevance in his words, for the same evil continues its designs through other means and under other names. Translated here into English for the first time, On Resistance to Evil by Force is destined to become a classic of Christian ethics.

Embassy, Emigrants and Englishmen
Author: Christopher Birchall
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780884653837
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This is the unlikely history of a centuries old church located at the heart of England's capital city. Founded in the early-18th century by a Greek Archbishop from Alexandria in Egypt, the church was aided by the nascent Russian Empire of Tsar Peter the Great and joined by Englishmen finding in it the Apostolic faith. The church later became a spiritual home for those who escaped the upheavals following World War II or who sought economic opportunities in the West after the fall of communism in Russia. For much of this time the parish was a focal point for Anglican-Orthodox relations and Orthodox missionary endeavors from Japan to the Americas. This is a history of the Orthodox Church in the West, of the Russian emigration to Europe, and of major world events through the prism of a particular local community. The book calls on stories from an array of persons, from archbishops to members of Parliament and imperial diplomats to post-war refugees. Their lives and the constantly changing mosaic of global political and economic realities provide the background for the struggle to create and sustain the London church through time.
