Спас Нерукотворный на Главной высоте России.
Главная икона Вооруженных сил России на Мамаевом кургане.
3 июня 2019 года военное воздушное судно доставило в наш город образ Спаса Нерукотворного. Он написан специально для главного храма Вооруженных сил России, который возводится в подмосковной Кубинке.
Военные считают этот образ своей главной святыней. Икона заключена в массивный киот – складень. Он транспортируется в разобранном состоянии. Смонтировали все части уже на месте. Отметим, что масса походного киота составляет 70 кг. Части киота-складня весят: нижняя– 70 кг, средняя – 100 кг и верхняя – 50 кг. Также со святыней находится ковчег с частицами мощей святых: великомученика Георгия Победоносца, апостола Андрея Первозванного, святителя Николая Чудотворца, преподобного Сергия Радонежского, великомученицы Варвары, апостола Петра, великомученика Пантелеимона Целителя и праведного воина Федора Ушакова.
Встречали икону в аэропорту армейские душепопечители и военные. Она доставлена в храм Всех святых на Мамевом кургане в сопровождении рабочей группы по передаче святыни. Перед образом выставлен почетный караул. Ежедневно будет служиться молебен по специальному чину, составленному в Синодальном отделе армейского душепопечения.
Свой путь икона начала в Севастополе, а закончит в Главном храме Вооруженных сил РФ в 75-ю годовщину Победы. В нашем городе икона пробудет до 14 июня. Храм открыт ежедневно с 8 до 20.00.

Slavic paganism
Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Slavic paganism or Slavic religion define the religious beliefs, godlores and ritual practices of the Slavs before the formal Christianisation of their ruling elites. The latter occurred at various stages between the 8th and the 13th century: The Southern Slavs living on the Balkan Peninsula in South Eastern Europe, bordering with the Byzantine Empire to the south, came under the sphere of influence of Byzantine Orthodox Christianity, beginning with the creation of the Slavic alphabet (first Glagolic, and then Cyrillic script) in 855 by the brothers Saints Cyril and Methodius and the adoption of Christianity in Bulgaria in 863 CE. The East Slavs followed with the official adoption in 988 CE by Vladimir the Great of Kievan Rus'.The West Slavs came under the sphere of influence of the Roman Catholic Church since the 12th century, and Christianisation for them went hand in hand with full or partial Germanisation,.
The Christianisation of the Slavic peoples was, however, a slow and—in many cases—superficial phenomenon, especially in what is today Russia. Christianisation was vigorous in western and central parts of what is today Ukraine, as they were closer to the capital Kiev, but even there, popular resistance led by volkhvs, pagan priests or shamans, recurred periodically for centuries. Even though the Byzantine Christianization firstly has slowed down the Eastern Slavic traditions in Rus', it has preserved the Slavic traditions in the long term. While local Slavic figures and myths, such as Baba Roga in Croatia were forgotten, Slavic culture continued to exist and even flourish in the Eastern Slavic countries. In the case of a Christian Latinization of the Eastern Slavic countries, this may not have been the case.
The West Slavs of the Baltic withstood tenaciously against Christianity until it was violently imposed on them through the Northern Crusades. In Bohemia, shortly after the country's official Christianisation in the late 9th century, a popular anti-Christian rebellion broke out. Among Poles and East Slavs, rebellion outbreaks occurred throughout the 11th century. Christian chroniclers reported that the Slavs regularly re-embraced their original religion (relapsi sunt denuo ad paganismus).Many elements of the indigenous Slavic religion were officially incorporated into Slavic Christianity, and, besides this, the worship of Slavic gods has persisted in unofficial folk religion until modern times. The Slavs' resistance to Christianity gave rise to a whimsical syncretism which in Old Church Slavonic vocabulary was defined as dvoeverie, double faith. Since the early 20th century, Slavic folk religion has undergone an organised reinvention and reincorporation in the movement of Slavic Native Faith (Rodnovery).
