My contact with Eugenie Bagaev and with school which he represents make me certain that healing tradition in Russia has been saved. It is astonishing. This tradition possesses knowledge, which is heedful for spiritual and physical development.
My contact with Eugenie Bagaev and with the school he represents made me certain that healing ”tradition has been saved in Russia, in some wonderful mysterious way . It is astonishing. This tradition possesses the knowledge, which is needful for spiritual and physical development.

I have met a great number of schools and seekers’ groups, which tried to collect and reconstruct Old Russian spiritual tradition having only fragments and scraps of information.
But all these attempts were vain. They put in my mind a sad thought, that pitiless reality of our History: revolutions, terror, repressions, wars had destroyed the Great Culture of Old Russia, which we know only from fairy tales and Russian epics. Nevertheless, it turned out that still there some people live who carry this culture, the people who can bring that fabulous beauty into our present-day life. These people keep the rules of this World, descriptions of a human being and universe in exactly the same way as our ancestors saw them.

And now, everybody who wishes to know that, can make sure what a deep, many-sided and all-embracing vision of the world they had. In his own practice everybody may make sure in the effectiveness of the methods that are suggested by the school of Ljubki. But one question still remains (óæå åñòü îäèí ãëàãîë, âòîðîé íå íóæåí) open: Are there still real knowledge-hunters in Russia, willing to bring back their hercules power, health and sorcerer’s wisdom?
