About an international expedition to Krasnoyarsk region – the Vissarion communitySayan Mountains, 14 – 23 August 2011

The Sayan Beauty – new horizons seen from the Abode of Dawn.By Nina Goncharova

This expedition has been the final event of the summer 2011 Earth is Our CommonHome expedition. The idea is to put together creative streams of visions and actions fromSiberia – Russia – Sweden and the world to creating an international network of interconnected communities as Peace Villages co tuned with each other, with the HighestWill, with the nature for creating a new sacred space and a new attractive reality. For thisvery task Pax and Helen Tielman - a couple from Sweden resonated and arrived in Siberia.Pax specially investigated the Tamera community in Portugal and took part virtually in thePeace Ship expedition by sending his Eco Communities for the Future presentation. Nowthey heard the call of Siberia and Sayan.

“Why have you arrived to Siberia?” – asked Sofia, my friend, while driving us by her

car all from the airport in Novosibirsk. «We are totally fed up with European life», – saidHelen and both of them added that they would love to experience what is Siberia and Russiain reality.

On the 14th of August 2011 we (Pax, Helen, Artyom and me) left Novosibirsk bytrain to Abakan city. I felt an invisible legend happening as these two people from Europedecided to step to Nowhere by feeling that great changes are happening all over the planetand they wanted to act together …

Early in the morning on the 15th of August we arrived at Abakan city – the capital of Hakassia. We took a suburb train and continued our trip to reach the place where 20 yearsago, in the depth of Siberian taiga a humane community was born and has been created bypeople from all corners of Russia and the world. It was founded by Vissarion who awakenedto his mission when he was 29 years old, and since that time he has been constantly

moving forward bringing people God’s Word and putting this word into life by practical livingon Earth. I started to recollect how together with his collaborators Sergey Chevalkov andStas Kazakov we invented the idea of a personal meeting of Vissarion and Talgat Akbashevto unite these powerful streams of creative energy for the future. And really this meeting

took place in Krasnoyarsk during the People Assembly of Siberia as a part of a Living Streamproject. Since that time we have been acting in parallel and together. After visiting thecommunity, my wish to support this activity has been growing and it can be manifested increating a network of interconnected communities as one big human family

It took two hours by the suburb train and two hoursby bus to reach my beloved village – Gulyaevka situatedrather close to the Mountain with a sun city. ElenaPetrovskaya, with whom we met at the Call of Baikal forums

in 1999 and then in Krasnoyarsk, awaited us. Elena moved toGulyaevka in November 2010 and since that time for almosta year, her house has been under construction so that itcould host many people. Tatyana Kurashenko, anotherwoman from our Education for Life movement (we started aCall of Baikal forum in 1997 and then trekked for Shumak –the “Third Eye of the planet”. There is also Oleg Aristarhovfrom Cheremshanka village with whom we travelled all over

Altai in 2006 for cultural cooperation.

Gulyaevka greets us with a blue sky and the Russian banya lovingly prepared by ourfriends right on the shore of Kazir river. For our foreign friends it is the first opportunity toswim in a cold Siberian river after the banya. In the evening, we visit the Gulyaevka smallChapel and create a circle of friendship – Oleg’s heartfelt and beautiful singing fills us with

joy connecting all of us into one whole – with the heavens, each other and this place.On the 16th of August, we leave for Petropavlovka to meet Vladimir Vedernikov, one

of the key managers of the community. Our meeting takes place in the house of TanyaDenisova – a woman who moved from Moscow many years ago. She hosts many peoplefrom all over Russia who come mostly for the community’s annual celebrations.

Vladimir arrives at Tanya’s house and we see a tall, handsome man with a kind andradiant face. While we met his mobile phone rang several times and Vladimir explainedthat more and more people from all over the world arrive and all of them need attention.Pax speaks about his spiritual search telling that he happened to meet several teachers andeach of them considered his teaching to be the only way for saving the humanity. And herehe met simplicity and freedom. Then we go on speaking with Vladimir in Russian. Our topicis about the best way of integrating our opportunities on international level with the PeacePole idea of the Vissarion. Vladimir says: “Let us act together. For example imagine youneed the land for some thirty people from all over the world to become one community”. Headds a profound thing: “We should be in time and I wish you could not search for us withflashlights”. It brings me a feeling of a legendary migration that is meant to happen on theeve of a New Time. I felt huge responsibility for giving the people the Call who might stillhear it.

That very day we went by car to visit one of the khutors – some 3 km from Gulyaevkavillage. Suddenly the wheels got stuck in the mud and I immediately recollected a fragmentfrom the “Surrogates” film, when all the cars stopped and the voice said: “Now we will haveto live on our own”. Our team – Oleg, Pax, Helen, Artyom and me managed to pull the car

from the mud. I could not but think about horses who would easily overcome this obstacle…I felt how our team had become one due to the obstacle that we all had to overcome…

When at last the car was pulled out, our friendly team was presented with the giftfrom Mother Nature – big mushrooms.

Pulling the car off - the team is growing … Art and Helen with

mushrooms

At last we were in the khutor, a remote beautiful place – the nomadic home of threefamilies that live together as one united family. Their life is simple and full of heroism.Sunset was almost upon us and we saw a wonderful small house made from the soil – ithappened to be the Russian banya. At the moment the three families lived together in one

big tent and by the autumn they will bring a house already built in the village. The idea of the khutor is to learn to live together in nature and create a new living path to the Mountain.

On the way back we met Nicolay, Juyba’s husband and initiator of the Path project. Heinvited everybody to join their family. In the evening when we approached Lena’s house inGulyaevka, we saw several people – two Kazaks among them. I happened to hear only onephrase: “In the time of Atlantis people were informed about the coming changes but onlysome of them moved to different parts of the world – the rest faded together withAtlantis…” It brought the feeling of eternity and some deep inner reflections about the times

of Atlantis…On the 17th of August we visited Cheremshanka village to get our foreign friends

registered and happened to meet an international media group from USA and Serbia. Thenwe all left for the Golden city – first by cars and then by foot. The young people wereinterested in cooperation with our good friends - the “Bridging Heaven and Earth” team.While trekking, we spoke about a new time and the changes happening all over the planetand again I felt that our common concern was to create conditions for the youth of the worldto live in a different world.

And here we are – at the Gates to the Abode of Dawn (it was called earlier – theSun City). The air is fresh, fragrant and full of awesomeness as the presence of theinvisible worlds is felt. I hear Artyom translating one of the foreign women:“Remember Dante’s Divine Comedy? There was a note at the gates to hell:

“Everybody who enters this gate, abandon all Hope”. And here, see, the meaning is incontrast with the one of Dante: “Everyone who enters this gate, accept Hope””…

The gates to the Abode of Dawn “Accept Hope” meeting near the gates

We entered the “city” and were greeted by a team of kind men dressed in white. The“city” consists of 14 streets situated in a circle around the center of the city with a symbolic

Two Wings sculpture. All the houses are wooden, simple with no locks and gardens insteadof fences.

Pax and Helen are hosted by Adrian and Anna Kastro – a Swedish family – so thatthey could directly communicate. Artyom, I and Tatyana Kurashenko are hosted by Vladimir– a former miner, and Vera – teacher of history at the Mountain school. When we arrive attheir house, we also meet Valera, Peter and Irina – all citizens of the Vissarion communitywho live in other villages and who have arrived at the mountain to take part in the annualcelebration. During the very first conversation Vera invites Artyom to teach history in theMountain school…

On the 18th of August, it is the day of Celebration. On that very day twenty yearsago the first preaching of the Vissarion happened and at that time he announced thecreation of a community in the Siberian taiga. The day starts with the liturgy in the center of the “city”. I feel many things happening in the invisible worlds while people sing in the open

air. I think that in the future will feel each other, nature and the Highest worlds in silence,while singing and in the simplicity of every moment of life. And now we observe the greatinner work of people from all over the world who send their best intentions, words, dreamsinto the heaven.

After the liturgy we ascend for the Heavenly Dawn and again I am astonished by theview - right on the high mountain close to the Unity Temple there are solar batteries, biggreen houses, many flowers and a beautiful hand made path… All has been created byhuman hands and hearts. Is it not a heroic endeavor of thousands of people, united by oneand the same aspiration?

Self-sufficient Heavenly Dawn, 18 August, 2011

We silently climb down having our own reflections. After dinner we all together go tothe Tiberkul Lake. (It means a “Divine Lake”). The lake charms us with its beauty, warmwater, and blue clay as we see lots of people covered by the healing blue clay and hear

jokes – people call these people “avatars”

Adrian and Adelaida Kastro Tiberkul Lake, 18 August 2011 Pax and Artyom

At 17:00, we are here again – opposite the Gates to start ascending again to have aFusion meeting with the Teacher. Thousand of people are ascending for the mountain andfor their true self. We climb the mountain together with our Swedish old and new friends aswe have Adrian Kastro, who has been here living in the Sun City. He moved from Sweden forSiberia many years ago. As soon as we reach the place of the fusion we hear SergeyChevalkov speaking about inner silence and peace inside our hearts. “When we are readyand have peace inside, our Teacher will feel it and come”. Again inspiring songs and soundsof violins (it is children who perform it) fill the air and the space. In the growing harmony of the heart resonance we feel how something sacred and unbelievable is happening on theEarth here and now. A new humane brotherhood is being born. “The time has come… It’s

special to us… it marks the beginning of a historical event of the greatest change of thehuman essence world wide – the victory of a man over his second “I” under whose slaveryhe has been living for thousands of years… The hour is near when the whole world will beinterested in the things taking place here… And it will be impossible not to notice the things

you do here... You will show very quickly that humanity can exist, with another character of life-managing…”. And really here they are – people from different countries surrounding us.

There are our Swedish people, a young woman from Austria, and some people fromGermany. I also see our new media friends from USA. My thoughts are about the fusion of our movement with this great Accomplishment.

And now a really mystical feeling is there – from the mountain in a white garmentslowly and confidently Vissarion comes down. I have a strange feeling that one and thesame message steps on the Earth. But this time it is both Word and Action going togetherhand in hand. The Word of Vissarion is very short but full of meaning. In his every word agreat Hope is there and it is about people who can do the things they have come to fulfill –to create a new, never existed, different, humane, self – sufficient society of happy people –co creators. I happen to translate his word to our Swedish friends, and also to all the peoplewho approached and surrounded us in order to hear his word in English.

We come down with flashlights… When we come closer to the center there arefire works blossoming with all rainbow colors. A strange feeling…

Late in the evening in our big mountain family in Vladimir’s house we havefriendly conversations and jokes and something very different – that you can not find in theordinary cities and villages.

On the 19th of August – again a blue sky covers us with blessings. We find outthat our media American friends have their meeting with Vissarion and that we leave theAbode of Dawn at 12. At the Gates, we have a spontaneous meeting with two men and

speak about Talgat and Vissarion’s meeting organized at Krasnoyarsk. They do know thatthey both kept silence during the meeting. I again recollect my feeling when I could not bethere with them and I prayed for the meeting to be silent… This is the way I foresee ourmeeting too. I sense that this meeting will blossom with new collaboration as we are allreally one.

We leave the Sun City later as soon the meeting is over. We climb down easilyand rather quickly - the way we ascended the mountain two days before. Our Paxcourageously treks though he damaged his knees during these two days of unusual walk forhim. His rucksack is carried by Vladimir Vedernikov… And again following the wooden pathswe can not but feel admiration for the heroic activity of thousand of devoted people whohave created it with their own hands – in the former wild Siberian taiga. I recollect SergeyChevalkov and Stas Kazakov stories about the way they started…

In Gulyaevka, Lena Petrovskaya, Larisa from Zheleznogorsk town, Ludmila fromKrasnoyarsk city are there waiting for us. They have prepared the healing banya and theonly thing we need is beech tree … I go to visit Lena’s neighbors – Vadim Irina and theirmother Raisa Ivanovna. They tell me their story, how they lived for nine years on theMountain, co-creating and feeling joy together with Vissarion. They share one of the veniksso that we could happily fit in Lena’s banya. And then – a Singing circle of awareness.Everybody speaks about his feelings and reflections about the Mountain. It is really better tohave a living experience, to see with one’s own eyes and to feel with our own hearts what ishappening on our small planet at this historical transition time.

We go to bed and I again live through the dream that I had last time in winterwhile sleeping close to the Russian stove. “A baby is given to me.He is naked. I takehim and feel; simply know from within myself that he has a screw inserted intohis back. A feeling of total responsibility for his life overwhelms me. I know that it is time to act! With some seventh sense I know the place where the screw is put inside his body, my hand immediately finds this place on his back and quickly takes it out of his body and throws it off. My heart rejoices! - Now I know that thebaby will LIVE!”

On the 20th of August we visit several homes in Gulyaevka. First we go toour old – young friend Christophe, a musician, creator of choruses, who arrived to the

community from Germany and constructed his Music House directly in his garden. Hischorus seminar with German and Austria participants has just ended and we are happy tomeet our new friends we met on the Mountain. We climb to the beautiful roof of Christophe’s house and feel joyful as we witness how quickly his house - “miracle on the

garden” grows and how his dream for creating spontaneous choruses that he, Christophe,so masterfully creates, develops. Then we sing all together feeling the resonance of hearts.

Then we visit one more family – Sigfrid and Petra who also moved to Siberia fromGermany. We feel the atmosphere of joy, happiness and creativity there. Petra createsdresses for men and women. This is a good example of the concept that everybody is amaster to create beauty with his/her hands and to give it to people.

The third family to visit is again a musician’s family - Andrey and Irina Teplovs inCheremshanka village. Andrey is also a jeweler master. They happened to meet each otherin the community and now live together happily having one and the same Faith in their

hearts.

And last but not least – we are at Oleg and Margarita’s house. Margarita and herchildren have cooked a great and simple dinner – very delicious as every vegetable hasbeen grown in their own garden. Both Margarita and Oleg told their own story of how theymoved to the community some 9 years ago. Their stories have one thing in common – bothwanted to express their real life dream and to live freely and happily together as one family.

Then their two children perform a joyful song about pan cakes while we eat pan cakes.

And one more song – about the joy to live and co create together. There is one thing incommon for all people we have met – all of them were capable to step into the Unknown, totrust the Highest Will – and then all that was needed followed their dreams the very bestway.

In the evening, we are back at Gulyaevka and are invited to visit one more house:

that of Alexander Grachev and take part in a wonderful musical party. Wonderful party as

this musical circle in a remote Siberian taiga has put together people from different

countries as one family. Different languages, different melodies, different musical

instruments and one common Faith and aspiration – to live and co create freely, joyfully and

together.

On the 21 August Lena speaks about her dreams to make the house larger.“I don’t know why, but I do have a feeling that I should make the house larger, so that itcould host other people” - she says.

Peace Village.

On the 22nd of August we leave for Petropavlovka. Andrey, a friend of Oleg brings

us by his microbus to Kuragino. On the way to Kuragino he tells us his story – he moved to

the community 9 years ago from Kemerovo – an industrial city of Siberia and he is very

much interested in creating a pure space here and is ready to get equipment for waste. We

feel close connection with him - Andrei refuses to take any money… Here we are again – in

Kuragino to take a train from Abakan to Novosibirsk.

houses. Again I have a feeling in my heart: “We should be in time”…
