Vladimir Nikolaevich Megre became famous after writing a series of books about an unusual girl Anastasia, who lives in the remote taiga, but has incredible abilities and extensive knowledge about everything in the world. Many people, after reading these books, were so imbued with the ideas of the author that they decided to radically change their lives. They left their cities and acquired land in sparsely populated areas in order to create tribal settlements. Megre's followers call themselves "Anastasievites".
Vladimir Megre: biography
The future writer was born in Ukraine in the village of Kuznichi on July 23, 1950. The real name of Vladimir Nikolaevich is Puzakov. After the wedding, he chose to take his wife's surname - Megre. At the age of 16, he left his father's house and began to earn a living on his own. Since 1974, Megre Vladimir lived in Novosibirsk and served as a leading photographer in Novosibirskoblfoto. In the early 90s heheaded the Interregional Association of Entrepreneurs of Siberia.
In 1994, he became the organizer of a trading expedition called "Merchant Caravan" along the Ob River. A year later Megre Vladimir Nikolaevich went on another expedition in order to find the "ringing cedar". Subsequently, he described his journey along the Ob in a series of books about Anastasia. Vladimir Megre claims that all the events described in his books actually happened. According to him, in the remote taiga, he met an extraordinary girl of unprecedented beauty - Anastasia, who has unique abilities. This meeting radically changed his life and made him take a fresh look at the meaning of human existence. However, no one has ever seen Anastasia, so her real existence is in doubt.
Anastasia
The main character of Megre's books lives in the taiga. She can go naked at any time of the year. The girl feeds exclusively on the gifts of the forest. She has no home, she sleeps right on the ground, in a clearing. Animals do not offend Anastasia, as they consider her "theirs". The squirrels bring her nuts, and the she-bear comes to play with the girl and keep her warm in cold weather. Despite the fact that Anastasia has no education, she is very smart and well-read. She has fantastic abilities: she can see from a distance, knows about the structure of flying saucers, sings songs in different voices. Anastasia has an answer to any question.
Vladimir Megre talks about her withgreat admiration. He forgot his own family and fell in love with this beautiful girl with all his heart. Later, they even had a son, Vladimir, who stayed in the taiga with his mother. Vladimir Nikolaevich received the ability to write Megre books from Anastasia. She instructed him to bring her message to the people.
Anastasia can meet aliens, and also knows everything about the structure of flying saucers and the life of extraterrestrial civilizations. This girl has a blue ball that has intelligence. He is a bunch of energy and comes to the aid of the hostess at her first call. Anastasia can speak all languages of the world and knows how even the most complex technology works.
Ringing Cedars of Russia
Megre wrote his first book in 1996. Subsequently, he became the author of a whole series of books "The Ringing Cedars of Russia" (10 editions were included).
They were all written between 1996 and 2010
The heroine of the books, Anastasia, is equated by Vladimir Megre with a deity. She claims to know the truth that Christ, Buddha, Mohammed and other prophets had previously tried to convey to people. The teaching presented in the Ringing Cedars of Russia series of books is occult in nature. It is presented from the words of Anastasia. She says that there is a constant exchange of energy between people and the Cosmos. Trees are able to accumulate energy, but not everything in a row, but only cedars. In general, cedars live 550 years. Having accumulated enough energy, they begin to ring. People should hear this ringing and cut down the cedar, and then make talismans out of it,which will nourish the owners of this miraculous energy.
Movement of Anastasia's followers
Many readers of Vladimir Nikolayevich Megre's series of books are imbued with the idea of creating a different human society. They decided to buy land and create a family estate. This movement is called - "The Ringing Cedars of Russia". It positions itself as religious, but representatives of the Orthodox Church compare it to a sect.
The newspaper published an article about the followers of Anastasia, who created a family estate in the Vladimir region and live there without registration and without medical care. The children of the movement's representatives do not attend general education institutions.
Vladimir Megre's followers organize meetings, distribute his books and ideas in society, travel to Gelendzhik to the ancient dolmens, which, along with the "ringing" cedars, are considered to be accumulators of the energy of the Cosmos. Dolmens are stone pillars, which (according to the writer) are about 10,000 years old. Every year, a huge number of admirers of Megre's work gather there.
"Anastasievtsy" (as the people who created the cult of Anastasia call themselves) strive to create a happy society of physically and spiritually he althy people.
This movement does not have a single leader and a clear organization. They promote the teachings of Anastasia and believe in her divine essence.
Criticism
The creators of the cult of Anastasia are criticized. Megre Vladimir is accused of creatingsects. Often, the organizers of the Ringing Cedars of Russia society are suspected of fraudulent transactions and enrichment at the expense of ordinary members of the sect, but this has not been proven.
Conclusion
The army of Anastasia's followers is growing every day. There are people who believed in the ideas of Vladimir Megre not only in Russia, but also in Europe, and even in America. Despite the fact that Anastasia is most likely a fictional character, she has a huge number of fans who are ready to give up their mortal existence in the world of money and greed and go to the taiga to create an ideal society. From time to time they hold meetings, seminars and conferences, where they invite Vladimir Nikolayevich.
In 2011 Megre Vladimir Nikolaevich became a laureate of the Guzi Peace Prize for Literature. In 2012, Watkins' Mind Body Spirit magazine named the writer one of the most influential spiritual leaders of our time.
