Legends say that during the Mongol-Tatar invasion under the water of Lake Svetloyar, the whole city was gone - all, along with his defenders, together with the old men and children. It is believed that the divine intervention hid him from the eye of the enemy for hundreds, and maybe thousands of years. If you believe legend, sooner or later, another settlement will appear in the Nizhny Novgorod region - the ancient city of KUIT.

Remember the tale of Atlantis? About the mainland who plunged into the ocean, punished by the gods for the fact that the inhabitants were mired into sins. There is a similar legend in Russia - however, it has nothing to do with sins. Rather, even on the contrary, the reasons for the flooding of this city should be sought in the spiritual purity of its inhabitants.

Only the righteous and saints can see this city. Only truly believes to hear his bells chime. Grad kite. Legend city. Until now, many Orthodox Christians are going to make a pilgrimage to the lake, in the depths of which allegedly rests the legendary city. Passed century, but people still seek here. They believe that the kite stands at the bottom of the lake, and the faith of their unshakable.

So why is the legend of the county of the curtain? Why can't people forget about this place?

The appearance of the city

The only hints of the real existence of the daytime can be found in the book "The Shopperist". According to scientists, this book was written at the end of the 17th century.

If you believe in her, Grad Kijite built the Grand Russian Prince Yuri Vsevolodovich Vladimirsky at the end of the 12th century. According to the legend, the prince, returning from a trip to Novgorod, on the way he stopped near Lake Svetloyar - relax. But he could not really rest: the prince was captive by the beauty of those places. Immediately commanded him to build a large kite on the shore of Lake.

Decided immediately. The length of the constructed city was 200 seedlings (direct soap - the distance between the ends of the fingers, stretching in different directions of the hands, approximately 1.6 meters), width - 100. Also built several churches, and on the occasion the best masters began to "write images".

Many churches, icons too - What else do you need a simple Russian person? The city did not slow down to nick the "holy", and the people reached the lake bright Yar.

Svetloyar

Lake Svetloyar is located in the Nizhny Novgorod region. It is located near the village of Vladimir Resurrection District, in the Lunda basin, the influx of the Wetcil River. The length of the lake is 210 meters, the width is 175 meters, and the total area of \u200b\u200bthe aqueous mirror is about 12 hectares.

Until now, there is no consensus, as the lake arose. Someone insists on the glacial theory of origin, someone defends the karst hypothesis. There is a version that the lake arose after the fall of the meteorite. The word "Svetloyar" can be translated as a "bright lake".

The invasion of Batiy

That there were times far from peaceful and not idyllic. Concepts between principalities, raids of the Tatars and Bulgarians, forest predators - for urban walls a rare person decided to get out without weapons. And in 1237, Mongol-Tatars were invaded on Rus under the leadership of Khan Batiya.

Now forget for a while about legend and remember the story.

Dioram "Heroic Defense of Old Ryazan"

Ryazan princes underwent the first attack. They tried to ask for help by the prince of Yuri Vladimir, but received a refusal. Tatars ruined Ryazan without difficulty; Then moved to the Vladimir Principality. Son sent to Yuri Son Vsevolod was broken by Kolomna and fled to Vladimir. Tatars captured Moscow and captured the other son of Yuri - Prince Vladimir.

Prince Yuri, when he learned about it, left the capital on the sons of Mstislav and Vsevolod. I went to collect troops. He broke the camp near Rostov on the River Sit and began to wait for his Brothers Yaroslav and Svyatoslav. In the absence of the Grand Duke on February 3-7, Vladimir and Suzdal were taken and ruined, the family of Yuri Vsevolodovich was killed in fire fire.

The prince managed to learn about the death of the family. Its fate was even more unpaid: Yuri died on March 4, 1238 in the battle with the troops of Batya on the River. Rostov bishop Kirill found the declined body of the prince on the battlefield and took it into Rostov. Later they found and attached to the body.

The death of Yuri Vsevolodovich

Here are the facts that are confirmed by scientists. Let's go back to the legend.

Bati allegedly heard about wealth, which was kept in Grada, and sent part of the troops to the Holy City. The detachment was small - Bat did not expect resistance. The troops walked to the kite through the forest, and along the way looked at the bottom. Tatars led a traitor Grishka Kurthma. He was taken in the neighboring city, a small keeper (the current city). Grishka could not stand torture and agreed to specify the path to the Holy Grad. Alas, Susanina did not work out: the Grishka led the Tatar to the kite.

In that terrible day, a visit to the town of China's heroes near the city. They were the first to see enemies. Before the battle, one of the warriors told his son, so that he fled to the kite and warned the townspeople. The boy rushed to the city gate, but the evil arrow of Tatarin caught up with him. However, the brave guy did not fall. He fought with an arrow in his back to the walls and managed to shout: "Enemies!", And only then fell dead.

Bogati in the meantime, they tried to hold back the khan. Nobody survived. According to legend, on the place where three heroes were killed, the holy key of Cibelek appeared - he hits until now.

The version of the legend says that George himself the victorious descended to the ground to help the defenders of the divine. But horse George stumbled. I understood the holy then that the salvation of the day is not his task. And retreated. And in the place where the horse's hoof fails, and scored the holy source of Cybelek.

Vasily Maksimov "Mongols near the walls of Vladimir"

Mongol-Tatars besieged the city. The townspeople understood that there was no chance. The handful of the people against the well-armed and organized Army of Batya is faithful death. Nevertheless, without a fight, the citizens were not going to surrender. They went to the walls, with weapons, as well as icons and crosses in their hands. People prayed from the evening and all night long. Tatars were waiting for the morning to start an attack.

And a miracle was accomplished: suddenly the church bells rang, the Earth shook, and in the eyes of the amazed Tatars, the Kiev began to dive into the waters of Lake Sveloyar.

And this hail is the big kite in the invisible and guarded by the hand of God, - so at the end of the century of our multi-stage and tears worthy covered the Lord that hail of the foreman.

"The story and recovery of the city of the innermost curtain"

K. Gorbatov. "Invisible hail kite"

The legend is ambiguous. And people interpret it in different ways. Someone claims that the kite went under the water, someone - that he plunged into the ground. There are adherents of the theory, as if the city from the Tatars closed the mountains. Others believe that he rose into the sky. But the most interesting theory says that the Kite is simply invisible. It is not clear, however, why then no one has come across the city by chance.

Amazed by the power of the "Russian Miracle", Tatars rushed to run who where. But God's anger will overtake them: whom the animals were filled, who got lost in the forest or just disappeared, led by a mysterious force.

The city disappeared. According to legend, he must "manifest themselves" on the day of a terrible court. On that day, when the dead will rise from the graves, raises from the water and the kite. But you can even achieve it now. A person in which there is no sin will distinguish the reflection of church poppies and white-stone walls in the waters of Lake Svetloyar.

Kite modern

We now move into times close to our century.

The legend of the city of Creek agitated the minds of the intelligentsia. First of all, writers, musicians and artists. The writer of the 19th century Paul Melnikov-Pechersky, inspired by Lake Svetloyar, told his legend in the novel "in the forests", as well as in the story "Grisha". The lake attended Maxim Gorky (Essay "Bugrov"), Vladimir Korolenko (essay cycle "in deserted places"), Mikhail Svtain (Essay "Light Lake").

A mysterious city was written by Opera "Tale of the Invisible Grade Kitezh" Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov. Lake painted artists Nikolay Romadin, Ilya Glazunov and many others. The poets of Akhmatova and Tsvetaeva mention in their work Grad Kitem.

Decoration of Ivan Bilibina to Opera Roman Corsakov

Nowadays, science fiction and especially the authors of Fantasy were interested in the legend. It is clear why: the image of the hidden city is romantic and how it is impossible to fit into a fantastic work. From the works of such a sense, it is possible to name, for example, the story of the "Molota of Divine" Nika Perumova and the "Red Displacement" of Evgenia Gulyakovsky.

In the Soviet TV film "Wizard", which was removed based on the novel Strugatsky, "Monday begins on Saturday", the worker of the musical instrument factory is going to the fictional Shipgrad. He wants to save from the evil char of the bride, and it turns out in the kingdom of good and evil wizards.

Lake Svetloyar today

Naturally, the mystery and scientists did not pay attention. Expedition sent to Lake Svetloyar, and more than once. Drilling off the shores of the lake did not give anything. They ended with the search for archaeologists. On the approaches to the lake of traces of the mysterious city was not. In the 70s of the last century, the expedition was equipped with a "literary newspaper": prepared divers descended on the bottom. Their work was not easy, as the depth of the lake is more than 30 meters. On the bottom there are a lot of corporate and sunken trees.

Unfortunate evidence of the city's existence, unfortunately, they did not find. For believers, this fact, of course, does not mean anything. It is known that the wicked kite will not open its secrets.

Hypotheses appeared that the kite was not at all on Lake Svetloyar. Immediately there were other estimated areas of "habitat" of St. Grad. It was even rumored about China, allegedly, the kite and the legendary shambal - the same place.

Nikolai Roerich "Song about Shambal"

In our times, scientists forgot about the cyinga - not before it became. But the legend one time was speculated by businessmen who hoped to turn the legend to the source of self-financing.

Currently, the territory of the lake is protected by the state. The lake and the surroundings are included in the reserve, who is protected by UNESCO. Every year on July 6, on the day of the Vladimir Icon of the Mother of God, Orthodox believers make a congestion from the Vladimir Temple in the village of Vladimir to the chapel in the name of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God. The chapel was built near Lake Svetloyar in the late 1990s.

Orthodox pray on the shore of the lake. Someone is secretly looking at his reflection in the lake - will the kite flashed? Some believe that the Earth, collected in the holy place, treats ailment. They take her on the graves of the "killed warriors", and then attribute home together with plastic bottles, in which water splashes from the holy source. There is a belief that water from Svetlorian will not deteriorate, even if he just gives a bottle for several years.

Russian Utopia.

Grad kite - a symbol of something inaccessible, but welcome. This is a paradise place where the righteous can run from the adversity of the cruel world. It doesn't matter whether the Kitem has existed - a beautiful legend gives hope desperate. And in the past, the peasants of the laptop fled the female land in the search, and now there are fanatics that go to Nizhny Novgorod forests, where they are hiding from modern life.

The kite is Russian utopia. This is a place where dairy rivers flow in ribbons. For many, this is a fantasy country, a fabulous state in which good and justice rule. The most important thing in the client utopia is that people in any case need such a city. And if it were not this legend, they would have invented another. People need faith in what can be escaped from this, full pain and despair, peace. People need a place where you can run. At least in thoughts. And this place was the sacred Russian town of Kit.

Konstantin Gorbatov "Potted City"

Belovodye

Many medieval legends are narrated about the kingdoms of good and justice, like a day. In these "hidden places" as if you can hide, escape from the discontinuities of evil. One of these places is the magic country of Belovodier. This is a fabulous land where wise men live, who give eternal life and the innermost knowledge of the past. According to legends, the country is somewhere in Altai.

After the introduction of serfdom in Russia, many peasants went east. In the 17th century, Russian migrants moved to Altai. The reason for this was not only the "close" of central Russia and poverty, but also the hope of finding Belovodye. At about the late 18 - early 19th century, "Traveler Mark Topozersky" was created, which described the road to Belovodye. The "traveler" pointed out the way through Krasnoyarsk and China in the "Opony" (Japanese) kingdom, which lies in the middle of the "Okian Sea" of Belovodia.

In Russia, there are real "curtains" - cities and villages flooded during the construction of reservoirs. In the photo - Crochino in the Vologda region

There was this Saint of the Blessed and Grand Duke Georgy Vsevolodovich Son of the Saint Blagovander and the Grand Prince Vsevolod, the Pskov Wonderworker, that Gabriel was nailed in Holy Baptism. This Saint of the Blessed and Grand Prince Vsevolod Son was the great prince of Mstislav, the grandson of the Holy and Equal-Apostles Great Prince Vladimir Kiev, the dealer of the Russian Earth. The Holy Prince of Great and Grand Duke Georgy Vsevolodovich - the great-grandfather of the Saint Blessed and Great Prince Vladimir.

And the holy burgher prince Vsevolod first rejected in Veliky Novgorod. But at one time, the Novgorod residents were taken to him and decided for themselves: the prince of ours, unresolved, owns us, baptized. And they created the advice, and came to him, and expelled out. He came to Kiev to the uncle to his Yaropolk and he told him everything, for which he was from Novgorod. And the one, having learned about it, gave him Vyshgorod. And here already begged his Pskovichi to prince them, and he came to them in the city of Pskov. And for some time I had perceived the grace of saint baptism, and was inflicted in the holy baptism of Gabriel. And stayed in great rugging and abstinence, and one year later, in the eternal peace went away, 6671 (1163) of the year, February of February in the eleventh day. And I was buried by the son of his faithful and great prince George. And there were many miracles from the saints of his power to glory and praise Christ, our God, and all the saints. Amen.

This holy burgher prince Georgy Vsevolodovich on the breakdown of the father of his faithful prince Vsevolod, who was named in the holy baptism of Gabriel, remained on his place in Moluba Pskovichi. It was in 6671 (1163) year. I learned the saint of the beloved and grand prince Georgy Vsevolodovich to go to the beloved prince Mikhail Chernigovsky. And when I came to the beloved prince Mikhail, the bold and Grand Duke of George, it bowed to the beloved prince Mikhail and told him: "Sat be, about the beloved and great prince Mikhail, for many summer, shining with piety and faithfully, in everything, in all the great-grandfather OUR, Blessed Great Princess, Christ Olga, who gained the most expensive and great treasure - Christ and the faith of his holy prophets and the apostles and the holy fathers, and the Blessed Christ-Christ-loving king and an equivalent Pradedi to our king Konstantin. " And he told him the blessed prince Mikhail: "Sat if you are, about the beloved and grand prince Georgy Vsevolodovich, came to me with the good advice and an unenclose ok. After all, what did you get due to the envy of our saint Svyatopolk, who was involved in the authorities and killed the brothers of his, the glory and great princes! Boris commanded a spear to pierce, garb should be expelled with a knife, during their princes them. After all, he deceived them flattering on the babysitting of Satan, as if their mother had to die. They, like the kind of default, became a good shepherd of her Christ, did not become a brother, her enemy. The Lord glorified the holy worshi of his, boring princes and great wonderworkers Boris and Gleb. "

And Prince George with Prince Mikhail gave each other kissing, and celebrated spiritually, and having fun; And said the boring and great prince of Georgy to the Blessed prince Mikhail: "Give me a diploma, in Russia, to build the cities of God in Russia at the fortified places of God. And he told him the beloved and grand prince Mikhail: "As you want, and create the Church of God to glory and praise the Holy Name of God. For such a good intention to accept the award on the Day of the coming of Christ. "

And they saw many days. And when the bold prince of Georgy decided to return to his lot, then the blessed prince Mikhail commanded a diploma to write and put his hand to a diploma. And when Georgy's beloved prince went to his fatherland and hail, then the beloved prince Mikhail with a great honor released him and accompanied him. And when there were already both prince on the way and bowed to each other for a farewell, Mikhail gave a diploma. The bold prince Georgy took a diploma in the beloved prince Mikhail and bowed to him, and then he is in response to him.

And he drove the prince of George in the cities, and when he arrived in Novgorod, she ordered the church in the name of the Assumption of the Blessed Lady of Our Virgin and Vestodel Mary per year 6672 (1164). From Novgorod went to Pskov, the city of his beloved prince was pressed out, and in the holy baptism of Gabriel, the Novgorod and Pskov Wonderworker. And I drove from Pskov-Grand to Moscow, and commanded the church in the name of the audit of the Blessed Lady of Our Virgin. and Vestodel Mary per year 6672 (1164). And I drove from Moscow to Pereslavl-Zalessky, and from Pereslavl-Grade to Rostov-Grad. At that time, Great Prince Andrei Bogolyubsky was in the city of Rostov. And the beloved prince of George in the city of Tom Rostov Church to build in the name of the Assumption of the Blessed Lady of Our Mother of God and Nestodle Mary per year 6672 (1164), May twenty-third day. During the days of the Grand Duke, George began to dig under the foundation of the church and found the buried relics of St. Justice Leonty, Bishop of Rostovsky, the Wonderworker, who drew people in the Rostov-Grad in faith to Christ and baptized them from Mala and to Velik. And rejoiced by the joy of the Grand Prince of Georgy, and glorified God, who gave him such a multi-specific treasure, and was sanguned to be prayer. And she commanded Andrei, Prince Bogolyubsky, in the city of Murom and build a church in the city of Murom in the name of the Assumption of the Blessed Lady of Our Mother of God and Naznodel Mary.

The very beloved and great prince drove from the city of Rostov and came to the city of Yaroslavl that on the banks of the Volga river stands. And sat down in a row, and went down the Volga, and stuck to the shore from a small division, that on the banks of the Volga stands, and rebuilt it, and began to pray all the people of Togo Prince Georgia, so that the image of the miraculous icon of the Blessed Virgin Fedorovskaya suffered to the city to them. He performed a petition. Began to sing prayers to the Blessed Virgin Mary. And when they ended and wanted the image that to carry into the city, then the image did not come off the place of that time did not move. The Blessed Prince of George, having seen the Most of the Blessed Virgin, who left the place here, commanded to build on the place of the monastery in the name of the Most Holy Virgin Fedorovskaya.

The most bold prince Georgy went from the place of that dry path, and not on the water. And he moved the river to the Uzol, and the second river, the name Sanda, and the third river moved, with the name Santogt, and the fourth moved, the name Kergenets, and came to the lake, named Svetloyar. And saw the place, the extraordinarily beautiful and crowded; And in the default of its inhabitants, the blessing prince Georgy Vsevolodovich was ordered on the shore of the Lake of that Svetloyar city, the name of the big kite, for the place was unusually beautiful, and on the other shore of the lake there was a oak grove.

And the advice and command of the Blessed and Grand Prince Georgy Vsevolodovich began to dig to dig to strengthen the place of this. And they began to build a church in the name of the Exaltation of the Honest Cross of the Lord, and the second church - in the name of the Assumption of the Blessed Lady of Our Virgin and Naznodeli Mary, and the Third Church - in the name of the Annunciation of the Most Holy Lady of Our Mother of God and Naznodeli Mary. In the same churches commanded the prince of Georgius to make and in honor of other holidays of the Lord and Virgin. Also, the images of all saints have commanded command.

And the city is the big kite, a hundred seeded in length and width was, and this first measure was Mala. And the bold prince of Georgy has led a hundred more seats to add a length, and there was a measure of hail in length - two hundred seven, and in width - a hundred seeded. And the city began to build in the year 6673 (1165), May the month of May on the first day, for the memory of the Holy Prophet Jeremiah and others like him. And the city was built by that three years, and built it in the year 6676 (1167), the month of September on the thirtieth day, the memory of the Holy Sacred Martyr Gregory, Bishop of the Great Armenia.

And I went to a small mile that on the banks of the Volga stands, the blessing prince Georgy Vsevolodovich. And on the construction of cities of those small and big, he commanded to measure in the field, how much they have a distance between their distances. And on the command of the blessed prince George, one hundred travelers targeted. And the blessed prince Georgy Vsevolodovich, having learned this, gave the glory to God and the Most Holy Virgin and also commanded the chronicler book. And the bold and grand prince Georgy commanded the whole service serve. And prayer sangs to the Most Holy Virgin Fedorovskaya, by the service of the service, sailed his Pskov in the past the city before the city. The people accompanied him with the Great Honor; And, saying goodbye to him, let go.

Prince of Georgy Vsevolodovich, having arrived in his city, before the named Pskov, had been in prayer for many days, and in post, and in the Division, and distributed a lot of alms with the widow, and orphans. And on building cities, those lived seventy five years.

It was in the year 6747 (1239). The easiest of God, sins for our sake, came to Russia, the wicked and godless king beyond. And he ruined the city, and fired them with fire, and the Churches of God also ruined, and devoured fire. The people of the sword betrayed the sword, and smaller children lay a knife, the young Virgin flashed. And there was a great cry.

The Blessed Prince Georgy Vsevolodovich, hearing all this, cried bitterly. And, praying to the Lord and the Mother of Mother of Mother, gathered his own military, and went against the wicked king of Batya with warriors. And when both craftsmen joined the battle, there was a grade of the Great and bloodshed. At that time, the Blessed Prince Georgy had little warriors, and the bold prince of Georgy ran from the wicked king of Batya down the Volga in the Small Kitege. And for a long time, the blessing prince of George with the wicked king of Batym, not put it in his city.

When the night came, then the blessed prince Georgy went secretly from this city to the Great Grad Kitege. In the next way, when that wicked king woke up, I began a attack with the warriors with my city and captured it. And all people in this beat this and quarrel. And, not finding the blessed prince in the city of Tom, began to torment one of the inhabitants, and he, not suffering a flour, opened his way. The same wicked chased in front of the prince. And when it came to the city, attacked him with a lot of his warriors and took the city of the big kite that on the shore of Lake Svetloary, and killed the Blessed Prince George, the month of February on the fourth day. And he left the city of that wicked one king Bati. And after him they took the relics of the Princely Prince Georgy Vsevolodovich. And after that ruisle, the city was launched by the city, the small kite, that on the banks of the Volga costs, and the big thing on the shore of Lake Svetloyar.

And the invisibility will be a big ship right up to the coming of Christ that in previous times it happened, as evidenced by the lives of the Holy Fathers, the Candan Monasiki, and the Candy Skitsky, and the grazing candyma, and the Candidage of Jerusalem, and the Candidage of the Holy Mountain, and these holy books in which The lives of the Holy Fathers, they agree that the hidden abode is not united, but there are many monasteries, and in those monasteries a lot of holy fathers, for sure stars of heaven who have given their lives. Like the sand of the sea is impossible to make intent, it is impossible to describe everything. It is about them, presented by the Holy Spirit, the Blessed Prophet David-King, wondering, shines the Holy Spirit, he says his psalti in the Book of his Psalrty: "The righteous, like a palm tree, blooms and, like Cedar Lebanese, is towers; Lost in the house of the Lord, they bloom in our god yards. " And also the same prophet King David: "Your thoughts are elevated for me, God, as a great number of them; Will it be calculated, but they are numerous sand. " About them, holy by the Holy Spirit, the Blessed Apostle Paul in his message says, providya; Such a word draws us: "Wrapped in sheepskin and goat skin, suffering, sorrow, bite, those who were not worthy of the whole world." The same word of the shit and St. John Zlatoust, in the teaching of his own, speaks the third post in the week. The same word draws to us, providya, Holy Anastasi from the Sinai mountain. This is the word Apostolic draws to us, providya, and the Rev. Father, our Hilarion is great, about the saints he writes: "And in recent times there will be: hails and monasteries will be in the world, because the Antichrist will begin in the world, then run to the mountains, then And in the verteps, and in the abyss of the earth. " And a human-loving God will not leave then to escape. Urged, and as a moutigation, and tears all receive a person from God. The Savior himself, the divine mouths were announced in the Municipal Gospel, that "everything in a brief and attend to be saved."

And on the killing of St. George Vsevolodovich's Grand Prince, and on the burial of honest relevance, he came to the Russian kingdom in the Russian kingdom per year. I went against the Batya-Tsar, the bold prince Mikhail Chernigovsky with a boyarian by his feudore. And when both craftsmen fought, there was a great bloodshed. And he killed that wicked king Bati of the Benther and Grand Duke Mikhail Chernigovsky with a boyar feodorm in the year 6750 (1241), the month of September on the twentieth day. And after the killing of the Blessed Prince, Mikhail Chernigovsky, two years later killed the Blessed Prince Mercury Smolensky, that wicked king Bati in the year 6755 (1246), month of November at the age of twenty-fourth day. And it was the launch of the Moscow kingdom, and other monasteries, and the Grand Divine in the year 6756 (1248).

The book, called the chronicler, was written in the year 6646 (1237) on the fifth day

During the days of the Grand Duke, George began to dig under the foundation of the church and found the buried relics of St. Justice Leonty, Bishop of Rostovsky, the Wonderworker, who drew people in the Rostov-Grad in faith to Christ and baptized them from Mala and to Velik. And rejoiced by the joy of the Grand Prince of Georgy, and glorified God, who gave him such a multi-specific treasure, and was sanguned to be prayer. And she commanded Andrei, Prince Bogolyubsky, in the city of Murom and build a church in the city of Murom in the name of the Assumption of the Blessed Lady of Our Mother of God and Naznodel Mary.

The very beloved and great prince drove from the city of Rostov and came to the city of Yaroslavl that on the banks of the Volga river stands. And sat down in a row, and went down the Volga, and stuck to the shore from a small division that on the banks of the Volga costs, and rebuilt it. And they began to pray all the people of the city of Blessed Prince Georgia, so that the image of the miraculous icons of the Blessed Virgin Mother of the Fodorovskaya suffered to them to the city. And he did, as he was asked. Began to sing prayers to the Blessed Virgin Mary. And when they ended and wanted the image that to carry into the city, then the image did not come off the place of that time did not move. The Blessed Prince of George, having seen the Magician of the Blessed Virgin, who won his place here, commanded to build on the place of the monastery in the name of the Blessed Virgin Mother of the Fodorovskaya.

The most bold prince Georgy went from the place of that dry path, and not on the water. And he moved the river to the Uzol, and the second river, the name Sanda, and the third river moved, with the name Santogt, and the fourth moved, the name Kergenets, and came to the lake, named Svetloyar. And he saw the place, the extraordinarily beautiful and crowded. And on the default of his inhabitants, the blessing prince Georgy Vsevolodovich was ordered on the shore of the Lake of that Svetloary the city, the name of the big kite, for the place was unusually perfect, and on the other shore of the lake there was an oak grove.

And the advice and command of the Blessed and Grand Prince Georgy Vsevolodovich began to dig to dig to strengthen the place of this. And they began to build a church in the name of the Exaltation of the Honest Cross of the Lord, and the second church - in the name of the Assumption of the Blessed Lady of Our Virgin and Naznodeli Mary, and the Third Church - in the name of the Annunciation of the Most Holy Lady of Our Mother of God and Naznodeli Mary. In the same churches commanded<князь Георгий> The feathers to do in honor of other holidays of the Lord and Virgin. Also, the images of all saints have commanded command.

And the city is the big kite, a hundred seeded in length and width was, and in the first extent there was little space. And the bold prince of Georgy has led a hundred more seats to add a length, and there was a measure of hail in length - two hundred seven, and in width - a hundred seeded. And the city began to build in the year 6673 (1165), May the month of May on the first day, for the memory of the Holy Prophet Jeremiah and others like him. And the city was built by that three years, and built it in the year 6676 (1167), the month of September on the thirtieth day, the memory of the Holy Sacred Martyr Gregory, Bishop of the Great Armenia.

And I went to a small mile that on the banks of the Volga stands, the blessing prince Georgy Vsevolodovich. And on the construction of cities of those small and big, he commanded to measure in the field, how much they have a distance between their distances. And on the command of the blessed prince George, one hundred travelers targeted. And the blessed prince Georgy Vsevolodovich, having learned this, gave the glory to God and the Most Holy Virgin and also commanded the chronicler book. And the most beloved and grand prince Georgy Vsevolodovich commanded the whole service serve. And sanguated by the Most Holy Theotorod Feodorovskaya, for the commission of the service, he sailed his Pskov in the past one in the structure. The people accompanied him with the Great Honor, and, saying goodbye to him, let go.

Prince of Georgy Vsevolodovich, having arrived in his city, before the named Pskov, had been in prayer for many days, and in post, and in the Division, and distributed a lot of alms with the widow, and orphans. And on building cities, those lived seventy five years.

It was in the year 6747 (1239). The easiest of God, sins for our sake, came to Russia, the wicked and godless king beyond. And he ruined the cities and fire burned them, and the Churches of God also ruined and burned fire. The people of the sword betrayed the sword, and smaller children lay a knife, the young Virgin flashed. And there was a great cry.

The Blessed Prince Georgy Vsevolodovich, hearing all this, cried bitterly. And, praying to the Lord and the Mother of Mother of Mother, gathered his own military, and went against the wicked king of Batya with warriors. And when both craftsmen joined the battle, there was a grade of the Great and bloodshed.

At that time, the Blessed Prince Georgy had little warriors, and the bold prince of Georgy ran from the wicked king of Batya down the Volga in the Small Kitege. And for a long time, the blessing prince of George with the wicked king of Batym, not put it in his city.

When the night came, then the blessed prince Georgy went secretly from this city to the Great Grad Kitege. In the next morning, the wicked king attacked the city with his warriors, he began an attack and captured him. And all people in this beat this and quarrel. And, not finding the blessed prince in the city of Tom, began to torment one of the inhabitants, and he, not suffering a flour, opened his way. The same wicked chased after the prince. And when it came to the city, attacked him with a lot of his warriors and took the city of the big kite that on the shore of Lake Svetloary, and killed the Blessed Prince George, the month of February on the fourth day. And he left the city of that wicked one king Bati. And after it<ухода> They took the relics of the Blessed Prince George Vsevolodovich.

And after that ruisle, the city was launched by the city, the small kite, that on the banks of the Volga costs, and the big thing on the shore of Lake Svetloyar.

And the invisible will be a big ship right up to the coming of Christ that in previous times it happened, as evidenced by the lives of the Holy Fathers, Candan Monasiki, and the Candy Skitsky, Candas, and Candidate of Jerusalem, and Candidage of the Holy Mountain; And these holy books, in which the lives of the Holy Fathers are written, agree that the hidden insidency is not one, but there are many monasteries, and in those monasteries a lot of holy fathers, for sure stars of heaven who have given their lives. Like the sand of the sea is impossible to read, so it is impossible to set out everything in writing and describe everything. It is about them, presented by the Holy Spirit, the Blessed Prophet King Davyd, wondering, shines the Holy Spirit, he says his psalti in the Book of his Psalrty: "The righteous, like Palma, blooms and, like Cedar Lebanese, is towers; Lost in the house of the Lord, they bloom in our god yards. " And the same prophet King Davyd: "Your friends are elevated for me, God, as a great number of them; Will it be calculated, but they are numerous sand. " About them, holy by the Holy Spirit, the Blessed Apostle Paul in his message says, providya, such a word draws us: "Wrapped in sheep and goat skins, torturing deprivation, grief, insults, those who were not worthy of the whole world." The same word of the shit and St. John Zlatoust, in his teaching it speaks the third week of the post. The same word draws to us, providya, Holy Anastasi from the Sinai mountain. This is the word Apostolic draws to us, providya, and the Rev. Father, our Hilarion is great, he writes about the saints: "And in recent times there will be: hails and monasteries of intimate will be, because the Antichrist will reign in the world. Then run to the mountains, and in the vertea, and in the abyss of the earth. " And a human-loving God will not leave then to escape. Urged, and as a moutigation, and tears all receive a person from God. The Savior himself, the divine mouths were constructed in the Municipal Gospel, that everything in a brief and attempt would be saved.

And on the killing of St. George Vsevolodovich's Grand Prince, and on the burial of honest relevance, he came to the Russian kingdom in the Russian kingdom per year. I went against the king of Batya, the burgher prince Mikhail Chernigovsky with a boyarian by his feudore. And when both craftsmen fought, there was a great bloodshed. And he killed that wicked king Bati of the Benther and Grand Duke Mikhail Chernigovsky with a boyar feodorm in the year 6750 (1241), the month of September on the twentieth day. And after the killing of the Blessed Prince, Mikhail Chernigovsky, two years later killed the Blessed Prince Mercury Smolensky, that wicked king Bati in the year 7655 (1246), month of November at the age of twenty-fourth day. And it was the launch of the Moscow kingdom, and other monasteries, and the Grand Divine in the year 6756 (1248).

. If what kind of person is promised to truly go to him, and not false, and from the diligence will start to fast, and many tears will shed, and go to it, and it is better to die with a hungry death, but not to leave, and other many sorrow to undergo and even death To die, know that God will save such that every step it will be known and will be recorded an angel. For on the path of salvation, he went, as evidenced by the books, such as the Case Skitsky. There was some kind of father, and he drew one cloud from fornica. The cloud went with him to the monastery. And came to the gates of the monastery of that, and died. And was saved. And the other also moved to the desert with his father and died. And accepted the angels to her soul and built the stairs on the sky.

Also with that man. If he happened and die to him, - in the Divine Scripture will come true. For the runner is spiritually similar to life-saving from the harlonian, the dark and full of the very full of the world of this, about which St. John the Bologosov wrote in revelation, his book. He tells about the last time as a wife, sitting on the beast, the seminal, naked and shameless, in the hands of his own, she holds a bowl, full of every square and a rapidly filled, and serves her living and loving it, - first of all patriarchs, kings , and princes, and warlords, and all sorts of rulers are rich, and all people in the world are sedious, loving the sweetness of him.

The same who wants and wants to escape, pleases to escape from peace and sweetness him, as the same John said, Provid the Holy Spirit: The wife will run to the desert, and the snakes will chase along the trail of her, the one that sews from the right path of which to live humbly And spiritually. And that damned snake teaches a wide and most extensive way to walk, the Evil's lucky path, and knocks on the right path, and seduces, and tells to live a broken life, and frightens on the right path of walking.

But of the one who wants, and is looking for, and wishes salvation, that man very much instructs the grace of God, and helps him, and teaches, and leads him to perfect spiritual humble live. For no one ever left the Lord anywhere. Whatever called him, he heard them. And when he asks, does not he get? And what is looking for, does he find it? For everyone receives the Lord, to him coming, with joy and all calls. After all, usually even forces in heaven do not see God's faces. And when the sinner on Earth is shown, then the face of Christ's strength is clear, and the glory of the deity of him opens, and see his face. For the sinner of sinful joy is united for the soul of sinner, the heavens and all of his holy. And the forces are angels and archangels, Cherubims and Serafima, the beginning, and the authorities, and the domination. And the saints are someone who is: prophets, and apostles, and saints, and reverend, and righteous, martyrs, and martyrs, and all the saints. For the repentance of a single sinner, the joy of all the power of heaven and all his saints.

And not a certain who is not aspiring, who does not want to receive salvation itself does not force the Lord forcibly and invisible. But by diligence and in terms of the heart, everything creates the Lord man. When someone who unlocherious mind and faith will unshakmate will give any vow and will not think about anything, then, even even returns to revershe, not having a father nor mother nor sisters or brothers, then the Lord opens the way and sends Its in such a good and quiet is the prayers of the presence of our fathers of ours, that they work the day and night incessantly. The prayer of their mouth, as Cadyl dishonled. They pray and for those who have been saved by a sincere heart, and not a false vow. And if anyone wants to escape and prays if anyone from somewhere turns to them, such is acceptable with joy as instructed by God.

And at the time to go to such a place holy no thoughts not to have a custody and corrupted, embarrassing mind and leading to the thought of the thoughts of the person who had to go. Firmly beware of the thoughts of evil, seeking to overcome from the place of Togo. And do not think about this yes about this. Such a person will send the Lord on the path of salvation. Or the notice will come to him from the habit of one or from the monastery that both hidden both, hail and a monastery. There is a chronicler about the monastery Tom. To the first word will return.

If it goes, and doubt will begin, and they praise everywhere, then the Lord Grad will close. And he will seem his forest or an empty place. And nothing will get anything, but only the work of his VSE will be. And the temptation, and the reproach, and the renovation will be for it from God. The execution will take here in the future century, the condemnation and darkness of Tomzene for the fact that the holy place was abused, over the miracle who appeared at the end of the century of our place: became invisible degrees, just as in former times there were many monasteries that were invisible, about It was written in the lives of the Holy Fathers, you can read more.

And this hail is the big kite in the invisible and guarded by the hand of God, - so at the end of the century of our multi-stage and tears worthy covered the Lord that hail of the foreman. And he became invisible to the moles and the right of those who are worthy and righteously to him fall, who will not narrow the grief and sadness from the animal antichrist. Only about us Pealing day and night, about the retreat of our, all of our Moscow state, because the Antichrist reigns in it and all his commandments are bad and unclean.

Fathers tell about the launch of the hail, and they heard from the former fathers who lived after the ruin of the city and one hundred years after the wicked and godless king of Batya. For he ruined the entire land of the Zauseol and villages and the village fire. And the forest row all the country Zauseolskaya. And since that time, the monastery became invisible.

This chronicler book we wrote 6759 (1251), and approved the cathedral, and betrayed the Saint God of the Church to strengthen all Orthodox Christians, whoever, to read or listen, and not to lose this Divine Scripture. If what person abruptly or mines above the sim, we were visited, by Scripture, yes he knows that he has not hurt us, but God and the most preching his mother, the master of our Virgin Mary and Nabdowel Mary. In whom it is famous, and it is great, and the great name of her, the mother of God, those and she observes, and keeps, and covers our grandfather, the sown's prayer for them to bring to his own way: "Do not in the contempt of mine, about the son of kind, petitions. You, who blood was washed off the whole world, hindle and sometimes and keep and keeping the name of my name with the faith of the undoubted and clean heart. " And therefore the Lord covered their own hand, which we wrote about, and approved, and notified.

And to some of the ruling, neither add nor dignify and not to change, nor a single point or comma. If someone adds or somehow change, and they will be damned, according to the Holy Fathers, ledge, by legend those who who approved. If to whom it seems wrong, then read the former holy lives and notify that there was a lot of this in former times. Glory in the Trinity of the Slavima God and the Most His Mother of God, who keeps and keeping this place, and all the saints. Amen.

BOGA BOH THAT LOVE LOVE SUPERLY BEZA FROM BLUDNIKA Babylonian dark and saint of this world, Saint John the Bologosov in Revelation, the books of His, writing. About the time of time, the height, Jaco's wife, having been holding a bowl, in his hands, he holds his bowl, Pwnah, and the Smya was used, and serves in the world that loves Say, Patriarch, King, and Prince, and Voevodam, And all of the authority is rich, and all people in the world are sedious, loving Savy Say.

And the ilight of at all and we want to be saved with the bodies of peace and the sloant of it. Well, the spectacle of that John, Providny's Holy Spirit, Jaco's wife is in the wilderness, and the serpent chasing in the way, and sews with the REDU alone with a smysny and spiritual way. The same damned sniy teaches a wide and most extensive way and the path of malice, and stifles, and takes himself from the REDU, and seduces, and makes it possible to be loosened, and disabling on the right path to walking.

And the fact of the keystore, and is looking for, and wishes salvation, that man and the Napauchie instructs and helps him the grace of God, and teaches him, and leads him to perfect spiritual humble lives. No one else was left by the Lord anywhere. Vise when he heard from him. Or when asks, and does not receive? And looking for, and does not unite from him? The Lord of the Lord accepts to him coming with joy and calls. But Iako, the skill of power in heaven does not see the face of God. And exactly, the churchman on the earth will be shown, then all the heavenly is clear to the face of Christ, and the glory of the deity of him opens, and see his face. Uniform Soul of the soul Mr. Groaving joy is in the heavens of the forces of heaven, and his saints. And the strength of the UBO is angels and arhaggels, cherubs and seraphims, the beginning, and the authorities, and the dignity. And the holy of OSB is the essence of: prophets, and the apostles, and the saint, and reverend, and righteous, martyrs, and martyrs, and WSI of Svolyia. The united grower for repentance is the joy of all the power of the celestial and His holy.

And not at least, neither a thorough, nor wanting to obtain salvation secto does not nudit the Lord needs and invisible. But by diligence and on the work of the heart, everything builds the Lord to the Lord. Always, anyone who is in the inadequate mind and I don't care about it, and thinking nothing in Sea, or he will return to the sister, not a father, nor mother, and sisters, and the brotherhood and such a Lord opens up and will manage him in such a wrestrical refuge of the prayers of our father on O. , I also work the day and more incessantly. From the mouth of their prayer, Yako Cadyl shouts. They pray for the same and about those who do to beware of a true heart, and not the false provenation. And attend to be escaped and praying, which a person is rolling towards them and anyone who appealed to the sputum, the acceptance of the joy, Sno from God, is instructed.

And at the same time, the Holy Nikakov Nikakov is not impexed by the Holy Nikaki, and the irreplicated mind, and the dishonest thought of the man of one of the idea of \u200b\u200bone's thoughts. But the WCELI WELLS Sew Dangerously thoughts of evil, whoever, bring separated from Mѣst Togo. And do not think sѣmo and ovamo. Such a man will assume the path of salvation. Or the profit will take him from the city of that ilk or from the monastery of that, inequate, Boyuh, hail, and the monastery. There are Bo and LTOP's book about the monastery volume. The first word will be returned.

She will go and think and thinking will begin, the Lord is closely covered by the Lord. And it will seem like a Lѣs and empty mѣst. And nothing will receive this, but the Tokmo work is his vice. And the temptation, and the reproach and diarrhea will be for this from God. The execution will explore healthy and the future, the condemnation and darkness of the crumb, the fact of this holy mѣsta, it is impossible to the end of this miracle miracle: invisible grads, Ikaskin and in the old days there are many monasteries, not visible bya, and they are sainted in the lives of the Holy Father, spread Jolli.

And this hail was invisible to the bridge to the bridge to God, and at the end of the century of the multi-member and tears worthy of the Lord of that hay of the foreman. And the invisible to be in their moles and the right, and it is also worthy and righteous of that falling, and it does not urge the grief and sorrow from the star of the Antichrist. Tokmo about us Pealing Day and Nosta, about the retreat of our, the entire state of Moscow, Yako Antichrist is kardial in him and all the feet of his bad and unclean.

The launch of the hail of that followed by the fathers, hearing from the previously formerly their father on the ruin of the township and at the articles of the unchecity and the noiseless of the king of Batya. Romor Bo all that land is assuoles and villages and villages fire. And Lѣs Porn the whole country Zauseolskaya. And since that time, we do not see be a hail of that monastery.

With this work, we wrote a book of LTOPistered in LѣTa 6759 and laid the Cathedral and betrayed the Holy of God's Church for the assertion of the Orthodox Christian, whoever, to read or listen, and not to say to the Divine Scripture. Lie, which man is crumbling or will see us to a loyal to Scripture, yes, there is such: that it is not quarreled to us, but God and the Mother of His mother, the domain of our Virgin, and Davly Mary. It is also famous and called the great name of Heria, the mother of God, the same, and she keeps, and keeps, and it covers our grandfather, and the prayer for them to his son to her verbal: "Do not see my son, kind, petitions. It is also the blood of its vile of the whole world, Tѣmzh, also a surfaction, and save, and observe the name of my name with the one with a bad heart and a pure heart. " The Lord is covered by their own hand, and we also wrote, and laid, and betrayed.

And to some of the deposit, neither add, nor to unbait, below any premiti is one point or comma. Whether who will add, or anyone, will be cursed by the saints to the Holy Father, others betrayed and approved. Whether who is unprecedented by anyone, read before the former saints of life, and ugly, sneak to be much in the former times of this. Glory in the Trinity to the Holy God and the Mother of God, who keeps and storing it, and Holy Allows. Amen.

On the Volga River, near the city of Nizhny Novgorod is one of the deepest lakes of this edge - Svetloyar. The dimensions of the lake are not large - half a kilometer in length and slightly more in width. The depth of Svetloyar is 39 meters, which is a record in the area. Water in the lake comes from a deep fault in his day. It is crystal clear and cold.

Svetloyar is sometimes referred to as Russian Atlantis for his sheedy legends history. People say that sometimes from under his waters, they can barely audible ringing bells, and in the depths you can see the ghost walls of the monasteries and the domes of churches.
This city is a mile, which, as legend, disappeared between 1.236 and 1.242 during the first invasion of Tatar-Mongol to Russia. At the border of the third and fourth decade of the 13th century, the ancient Russian states were fragmented by dozens of prince. Princes fought among themselves for power and new lands, joined military unions.

The name of Lake Svetloyar comes from a combination of ancient Russian words: "light", also denoting pure and righteous and "yar" - not only known to all as a ravine, or a beam, but in this case, who is the root on behalf of the ancient Russian solar deity, Yaril, in the Doharistian Russia The ancient tribes of the Slavs worshiped. Many legends of the pre-Christian period of Russia are also conneged with Lake Svetloyar. About the city of Kitty, and in the Holy Book of the Old Russian Faith - the "Star Book of the Kolyady".

In the area of \u200b\u200bLake Svetläir, as the ancient Russian legend tells, Kitovras was born - the magic semi-comer reception. He was a powerful wizard and helped the Slavs to build cities and temples. There lived Quasura - the ancient God of wisdom and hops. It is believed that their names and gave the name of the city of Kitege.

Lake Sveloyar in ancient times the Slavic tribe of Berendev lived. Until today, their descendants retained legends about Grades in a religious center of worshiping God Yaril in it. In antiquity, in the pre-Christian period of Russia, the ship was considered the Slavs with a sacred place.

After the baptism of Russia, the Slavic faith with her temples and wipes gave way to Christianity, but the sacred place for people remained. The Orthodox churches began to build Orthodox churches on the site of the tradition, as it was believed that these places are special and are strong sources of positive energy. The names of the Old Slavic gods gradually changed to the names of the saints, but the places of worship of the highest forces remained the same. Lake Svetloyar, which has been shrouded with legends and mysticism, belongs to such places.

On the shore of this lake Grand Prince Vladimir Yuri (Georgy) Vsevolodovich, (November 26, 1188 - March 4, 1238), the son of Vsevolod is a big nest and built a hail of the big kite. In addition to him, there was also a small kite (allegedly modern town), built during his grandfather - Yuri Dolgoruky. The big ship was all erected from a white stone with six temples in the city center, which at the time was a sign of wealth. It seems that the legends united these two cities into a mystical and mysterious ship-hail.

A true picture of the events of those distant times helped to recreate Alexey Asov. For this, he took the chronicles and legends of those times.

In 1238, Khan Bati defeated the Vladimir-Suzdal Principality. Prince Yuri Vsevolodovich remained at that time the only warlord with an army that could withstand the Tatar-Mongolian invasion. Han got a camp on the city river. Prince Yuri Vsevolodovich defeated him in a small quay. Khan Bati took the attack the city, but the prince with the remnants of the troops managed to leave the small quay and hide in a large quay.

The Batie intended to continue his trip to the Mediterranean Sea, but it was impossible to leave in his rear of the Russian prince with his army. The path to the city was lying among the impassable marshes and forests. And then he began torturing all the prisoners of Slavs how to go to the kite. Near the sacred for the Slavs, the city meant to obrace myself and your genus on the eternal curse. According to legend, the torment was frightened and the death was only one - Grishka Kurthmy. He agreed to spend the troops of Batiya in China.

Khan Bati was the founder of the Mongolian Empire and the grandson of Genghis Khan. For several years, he destroyed about half of the population of Ancient Russia. Kiev, Vladimir, Suzdal, Ryazan, Tver, and many other cities were ruined and burned. The rich Russian culture of ancient Russia did not. For several decades, the construction of cities was almost stopped, crafts disappeared, and the southern Russian lands lost almost all their indigenous people.

In this, the tragic time, the people arose a legend about Gradi. She tells meant that Khan Bati found out about the city of Kitezh and ordered him to conquer him. The Tatar-Mongolian army was difficult to find the city, but one of the Russian prisoners told Mongols about the secret ways to Lake Svetlär and the army headed for a kite. When they approached him, they saw that the city was not fortified and delighted with the upcoming light victory. But at the sight of troops from under the ground, the fountains of the water and the town of Kijite disappeared under water. According to the legend, the city itself did not enter the city itself, she just hid him from enemies and did not drowl the townspeople. So God saved the people of the kite for their prayers and piety. This place has become sacred.

Until today, alive is a legend about Kitege. People living in this area are talking about suddenly emerging strangely dressed people, the disappearance of those who come to seek the Kitete and turned out to be worthy of becoming its inhabitants. The lake has long been interested in archaeologists and geologists - employees of research institutes, as well as numerous independently investigating the mystery of Lake Svetloyar people. Among them are those who explain all the laws of physics, and those who believe in the secret nature of things. All of them seek to solve the mystery of Lake Sveloyar and plunged in him a city of dying.

This is a legend, but many people believe in it. And there is no doubt that Lake Svetloyar is the same ancient lake about which there are old legends. Orthodox come here to pray. It is even said that the handful of earth is cured of many diseases from this place, and water from the lake is worth a few years and does not bloom and does not deteriorate - like holy water. Many believe that if you walk around the lake three times clockwise, it will fulfill your desire.

Presumably in Lake Svetloyar is a passage to another dimension. There is another interesting, right-mystical version in which Lake Svetloyar is connected with the mysterious Shambal. Svetloyar attracts thousands of pilgrims from around the world. A hint of the existence of the city at the Day of Svetloyar can be found in the book of the seventeenth century "The Kitene Chronicler".

Candidate Sergey Volkov, who organized an expedition in search of the mythical city, says people disappear in this place - some forever, others return and do not remember anything that happened to them. He seriously said about the possibility of visiting the lost city of the city. But it can only pass truly believers.

Supporters of the theory of a mystical lost city suggest that in Lake Svetloyar there is a passage to another dimension. The proof of this is the stories of the residents of the village of Vladimirskoye near Svetlolyar. They saw the puddle in the clothes, which were their ancestors. When these strange people bought goods in the village - mostly bread and bagels, they paid perfectly preserved ancient copper and silver coins. A possible explanation for this is only the theory of parallel worlds.

This is what Sergey Volkov said:
"Our basic opening is confirmed by the hypothesis about the existence near Svetlorian invisible to the unarmed eye of the plasma substance, which has the opportunity to manifest itself as living beings. Especially many of them and mostly they come in the evening around groups of praying people - look and explored. We have captured them on video -And the camera. These plasma formations were once recorded in the laboratory by scientists of the Institute of Earth Magnetism, Ionosphere and Radioless Dissemination. Experiments in this Institute showed that millions of plasma clots exist in the electromagnetic range, let's call them substance. This brings atheists to think That there is a parallel, the afterlife. The study of Svetolar shows that this hypothesis is not deprived of common sense. "

Despite myths, legends and folklore, scientists discovered traces of real events occurred. From geology it is well known that the central regions of the European part of Russia lie on the foundation from the hard rock formation. But this foundation is cut into deep directed in different directions and often intersecting with each other. And based on this fact, according to geologists, Lake Svetloyar is located in the intersection assembly of two very deep and large depressions. In such places, even a very large water tank can be very quickly formed.

Scientific scuba diversary explored Svetloaryar and found natural anomalies. They found underwater terraces at the bottom of the lake - the shore goes under the water like a staircase. Large steep submarine slopes of Svetloaryar alternate with horizontal areas of the bottom. This leads to the conclusion that Lake Svetloyar was formed by parts - the first, lower, then through a hundred or even thousands of years - the second, and, finally, relatively recently the third.

The first layer of precipitation of the lake bottom is located at a depth of 30 meters and a very ancient, the second layer is at a 20-meter depth and referred to the XIII century, and the third terrace has sediments of quite recent times.
At a depth of 20 meters, scuba launches found small items made from wood and metal of the XIII century period. On one of these underwater terraces, which was before on the shore of the lake, maybe there was a real city or a monastery, and then he disappeared into the waters of Lake Sveloyar.

When the lake was tested by a echo sounder, and later his echo-echo removed the geolocator, the oval anomaly became clearly visible. It was distinguished by a multi-meter sediment. Moreover, there is another area near this "ovala". There, in the mud, reflected by the bottom of the thin layer of the soil signals, were different as if something did not miss the sound. At large depths were hidden solid items. When they drew a map of this area. It turned out a pattern that resembles surrounded by the promenade city.

Thus, the existence of a city in this place is quite possible. But he did not have a mysterious way disappeared somewhere, but simply collapsed under the ground as a result of tectonic activity. Only for the past 50 years, the scablasts could not find any traces of this. Schliman found her three guided by the stories of "Iliad". And here the address is accurate and the lake is in our eyes - and all the underwater searches did not give anything.

It remains to be assumed a fantastic option: the city exists, but invisible. In addition to hearing from time to time, his bells ...

During the tests using a hydrophone, which is made on the principle of sound conversion into an electrical signal, he suddenly began to make sounds resembling the echo of thunder during the storm. Geophysics participating in the experiment said that these sounds occur from the wave of magnetic perturbation, which passes through the water and creates such an effect.

In some places, the water just "screamed", in others there was dead silence. But the most unexpected surprise of Lake Svetloyar turned out to be fixed by hydrophones Low buzzing sound, resembling a loud call. Most often, the lake published it before sunrise and the full moon. It was then, according to the legend, the righteous people are given to see how the walls of a snow-white city with gold domes are visible in the lake mirror with golden temples.

As for the water itself, the scientists of chemists came to the conclusion that it can remain many days without changing its properties, thanks to the sources of calcium and hydrocarbonate at the bottom of the lake.

There is also a hypothesis that once there was a city - the center of Eurasia. As a result of an unprecedented catastrophe, the blooming city was immersed under water.

In five kilometers from the lake there is a source of "living" water - tests showed that its acidity is zero. Next to him in the forest there are three ancient unusual graves. No one knows who is buried there, so far from any location. Their size is several times higher than the traditional size of the Christian grave. It is said that the giants are buried in them - the ancient lemuries, the inhabitants of the mysterious country of Lemuria, which, according to legend, existed somewhere in this area thousands of years ago.

Modern science does not confirm, but also does not try to disprove this version of the origin of the burial. But there were no attempts to exhum. Some people come to the graves at night to worship, others on the contrary. They consider that this is an unclean place, regardless of the healing source located next to him. Third take water from it and quickly go.

The legend of the Kitege is the most famous legend of the city, hidden from the enemy. However, such stories are quite a lot. In a number of regions of Russia, there are still myths about how endangered the plundering of the monasteries or whole cities went under water or hid in the mountains. It was believed that only the favorites can get from our world. In the book "Brotherhood of Grail", Richard Rudzitis leads a letter to one Russian monk who sends his relatives to his loved ones and asks not to consider him dead. He says that he just went to the hidden monastery to the ancient elders.

However, scientists did not come to the final conclusion: about one or several hidden cities or monasteries there is a question in the question of the cyinga. One way or another, the prevalence of such legends and their undoubted similarity once again proves the accuracy of this story. However, the larger the research on Lake Svetloyar is being conducted, the more scientists have questions that have yet to find the answer.

Modern legends about keeper

During the years of the Great Patriotic War, the old people committed a pilgrimage around Svetloaryar, praying for the female fellow countrymen.

About 20 years ago, Sveloyar wanted to explore the visits of the hydrobiologist. After several dives in the water, the temperature has risen sharply. The man appealed to the doctors, but they could not even make a diagnosis: an unknown disease developed without any objective reasons.
And only if the hydrobiologist left these places, the disease retreated by itself.

One day, a resident of Nizhny Novgorod came to collect mushrooms in the neighborhood of Svetloard. He did not return home on this day or next. Relatives scored alarm. Search and rescue work results did not give. The man was announced wanted. And a week later he returned home alive and uncaded. All questions answered evasively: they melt, got lost, plut in the forest. Then he said that he had a failure in memory. Only later, he admitted to his friend who was specifically touched, that was in the invisible Grad, in the invisible Grada, where he was met by the miraculous elders. "How to prove?" Asked the buddy. And then the mushroom picked out a piece of bread, which he was treated in a curtain. However, in one moment, the bread turned into a stone.

It is also said that in one of the museums to the 1917 coup, the letter was allegedly stored in the Old Slavonic language, which was addressed from the son to the Father. The content was reduced to the following: the young man was in Kitege thanks to some miracle and asks his parents not to bury him ahead of time.

In the recent past, divers immersed on the bottom of Svetloaryar. The most interesting thing is that they do not talk about anyone about the results of their research. According to rumors, the bottom they did not find and were very frightened by this circumstance. Can not be a bottomless reservoir! There is a belief that
The secrets of the lake guards the wonderful fish, a kind of Lohannesk monster, only in Russian way.

There is an even fantastic legend about Lake Svetloyar. Local say that it has an underground bottom and connects with the waters of Lake Baikal. And again there was no confirmation of this. However, and refuted these folk beliefs were not.

However, residents themselves are often visible in our world. Old-timers say that, it happened, an old man with a long gray beard in ancient Slavic clothing came to an ordinary rural store in an old Slavic clothing. He requested to sell bread, and paid by the old Russian coins of the times of Tatar-Mongolian yoke. And the coins looked like new ones. Often, the elder asked the question: "How is Russia now? Is it time to rebel a cite? " However, the locals answered that it was still early. They know better, because the place around the lake is special, and people live here in constant contact with a miracle. Even those who came from other areas feel unusual halo.

The legend about the cyingaway reached us in the literary processing of the Old Believers: "The Book of the Glabnaya Chronicler" in its final form developed in the second half of the XVIII century. In the environment of one of the sense of the Old Believers - Runners. But both composite parts of the monument, quite isolated and independent, lead to the XVII century. At the same time, in the first part, telling about the Prince of George Vsevolodovich, the killing of its battle and the ruin of the division, legends reflected, ascending to the times of Batiev invasion.

No matter how much the legend and how far the historical dates are not correct, real events were based on. "Saint Blagoven and Grand Duke Georgy Vsevolodovich" is the Grand Duke Vladimir and Suzdal Georgy II Vsevolodovich, who fought with the troop of Batya and the head in an unequal battle on the river. City. Communication of a small division (town) with the name George Vsevolodovich has a completely historical background: from 1216 to 1219 (before the class of Vladimir table), the prince drove there for a lot; In 1237, when Horde Batiy approached Vladimir, Georgy Vsevolodovich went to the Yaroslavl land, within which both cities were both cities - large and small kitecia and where Russian battle lost was held.

Of course, the legendary image of the prince is not fully identical to the historical. George Vsevolodovich is given a fictional pedigree: he leads his genus from Holy Prince Vladimir and falls by the son of Holy Vsevolod Mstislavich Novgorod. This invented genealogy, not corresponding to the actual pedigree prince George, strengthens the motive of holiness - the leading motive of the legend.

The second part of the "Book of the Church of the Chronicler" - "Host and recovery about the city of the innermost Kitege" - deprived of any historical background, it belongs to the type of legendary-apocryphic monuments that interpreting about the earthly paradise. The image of the "intimate" classist of the corticle is somewhere in the middle of the "earthly paradise" of the oldest Russian apocryphas and a whitewash, the legendary happy edge, which became so popular among Russian peasants in the XVIII century.

The book, called the chronicler, was written in the year 6646 (1237) on the fifth day

There was this Saint of the Blessed and Grand Duke Georgy Vsevolodovich Son of the Saint Blagovander and the Grand Prince Vsevolod, the Pskov Wonderworker, that Gabriel was nailed in Holy Baptism. This Saint of the Blessed and Grand Prince Vsevolod Son was the great prince of Mstislav, the grandson of the Holy and Equal-Apostles Great Prince Vladimir Kiev, the dealer of the Russian Earth. The Holy Prince of Great and Grand Duke Georgy Vsevolodovich - the great-grandfather of the Saint Blessed and Great Prince Vladimir.

And the holy burgher prince Vsevolod first rejected in Veliky Novgorod. But at one time, the Novgorod residents were taken to him and decided for themselves: the prince of ours, unresolved, owns us, baptized. And they created the advice, and came to him, and expelled out. He came to Kiev to the uncle to his Yaropolk and he told him everything, for which he was from Novgorod. And the one, having learned about it, gave him Vyshgorod. And here already begged his Pskovichi to prince them, and he came to them in the city of Pskov. And for some time I had perceived the grace of saint baptism, and was inflicted in the holy baptism of Gabriel. And stayed in great rugging and abstinence, and one year later, in the eternal peace went away, 6671 (1163) of the year, February of February in the eleventh day. And I was buried by the son of his faithful and great prince George. And there were many miracles from the saints of his power to glory and praise Christ, our God, and all the saints. Amen.

This holy burgher prince Georgy Vsevolodovich on the breakdown of the father of his faithful prince Vsevolod, who was named in the holy baptism of Gabriel, remained on his place in Moluba Pskovichi. It was in 6671 (1163) year. I learned the saint of the beloved and grand prince Georgy Vsevolodovich to go to the beloved prince Mikhail Chernigovsky. And when I came to the beloved prince Mikhail, the bold and Grand Duke of George, it bowed to the beloved prince Mikhail and told him: "Sat be, about the beloved and great prince Mikhail, for many summer, shining with piety and faithfully, in everything, in all the great-grandfather OUR, Blessed Great Princess, Christ Olga, who gained the most expensive and great treasure - Christ and the faith of his holy prophets and the apostles and the holy fathers, and the Blessed Christ-Christ-loving king and an equivalent Pradedi to our king Konstantin. " And he told him the blessed prince Mikhail: "Sat if you are, about the beloved and grand prince Georgy Vsevolodovich, came to me with the good advice and an unenclose ok. After all, what did you get due to the envy of our saint Svyatopolk, who was involved in the authorities and killed the brothers of his, the glory and great princes! Boris commanded a spear to pierce, garb should be expelled with a knife, during their princes them. After all, he deceived them flattering on the babysitting of Satan, as if their mother had to die. They, like the kind of default, became a good shepherd of her Christ, did not become a brother, her enemy. The Lord glorified the holy worshi of his, boring princes and great wonderworkers Boris and Gleb. "

And Prince George with Prince Mikhail gave each other kissing, and celebrated spiritually, and having fun; And said the boring and great prince of Georgy to the Blessed prince Mikhail: "Give me a diploma, in Russia, to build the cities of God in Russia at the fortified places of God. And he told him the beloved and grand prince Mikhail: "As you want, and create the Church of God to glory and praise the Holy Name of God. For such a good intention to accept the award on the Day of the coming of Christ. "

And they saw many days. And when the bold prince of Georgy decided to return to his lot, then the blessed prince Mikhail commanded a diploma to write and put his hand to a diploma. And when Georgy's beloved prince went to his fatherland and hail, then the beloved prince Mikhail with a great honor released him and accompanied him. And when there were already both prince on the way and bowed to each other for a farewell, Mikhail gave a diploma. The bold prince Georgy took a diploma in the beloved prince Mikhail and bowed to him, and then he is in response to him.

And he drove the prince of George in the cities, and when he arrived in Novgorod, she ordered the church in the name of the Assumption of the Blessed Lady of Our Virgin and Vestodel Mary per year 6672 (1164). From Novgorod went to Pskov, the city of his beloved prince was pressed out, and in the holy baptism of Gabriel, the Novgorod and Pskov Wonderworker. And I drove from Pskov-Grand to Moscow, and commanded the church in the name of the audit of the Blessed Lady of Our Virgin. and Vestodel Mary per year 6672 (1164). And I drove from Moscow to Pereslavl-Zalessky, and from Pereslavl-Grade to Rostov-Grad. At that time, Great Prince Andrei Bogolyubsky was in the city of Rostov. And the beloved prince of George in the city of Tom Rostov Church to build in the name of the Assumption of the Blessed Lady of Our Mother of God and Nestodle Mary per year 6672 (1164), May twenty-third day. During the days of the Grand Duke, George began to dig under the foundation of the church and found the buried relics of St. Justice Leonty, Bishop of Rostovsky, the Wonderworker, who drew people in the Rostov-Grad in faith to Christ and baptized them from Mala and to Velik. And rejoiced by the joy of the Grand Prince of Georgy, and glorified God, who gave him such a multi-specific treasure, and was sanguned to be prayer. And she commanded Andrei, Prince Bogolyubsky, in the city of Murom and build a church in the city of Murom in the name of the Assumption of the Blessed Lady of Our Mother of God and Naznodel Mary.

The very beloved and great prince drove from the city of Rostov and came to the city of Yaroslavl that on the banks of the Volga river stands. And sat down in a row, and went down the Volga, and stuck to the shore from a small division, that on the banks of the Volga stands, and rebuilt it, and began to pray all the people of Togo Prince Georgia, so that the image of the miraculous icon of the Blessed Virgin Fedorovskaya suffered to the city to them. He performed a petition. Began to sing prayers to the Blessed Virgin Mary. And when they ended and wanted the image that to carry into the city, then the image did not come off the place of that time did not move. The Blessed Prince of George, having seen the Most of the Blessed Virgin, who left the place here, commanded to build on the place of the monastery in the name of the Most Holy Virgin Fedorovskaya.

The most bold prince Georgy went from the place of that dry path, and not on the water. And he moved the river to the Uzol, and the second river, the name Sanda, and the third river moved, with the name Santogt, and the fourth moved, the name Kergenets, and came to the lake, named Svetloyar. And saw the place, the extraordinarily beautiful and crowded; And in the default of its inhabitants, the blessing prince Georgy Vsevolodovich was ordered on the shore of the Lake of that Svetloyar city, the name of the big kite, for the place was unusually beautiful, and on the other shore of the lake there was a oak grove.

And the advice and command of the Blessed and Grand Prince Georgy Vsevolodovich began to dig to dig to strengthen the place of this. And they began to build a church in the name of the Exaltation of the Honest Cross of the Lord, and the second church - in the name of the Assumption of the Blessed Lady of Our Virgin and Naznodeli Mary, and the Third Church - in the name of the Annunciation of the Most Holy Lady of Our Mother of God and Naznodeli Mary. In the same churches commanded the prince of Georgius to make and in honor of other holidays of the Lord and Virgin. Also, the images of all saints have commanded command.

And the city is the big kite, a hundred seeded in length and width was, and this first measure was Mala.
