Joking aside from a anomalschiny residents of an entire village are tired, they are not joking. Once upon itself such here drevenka in the Omsk region for decades and did not know trouble. But at the end of the last century, suddenly discovered that around Okunevo - and who would have thought he could! - Deep, deep underground, buried in a temple, a very God-forsaken village - the cradle of our civilization.
The honor of opening a new sanctuary belongs to a certain Rasma Rosita - is it after thorough search and found a holy village. It is said that during his stay in India, she got the idea to be found in Siberia, a kind of sacred place, perhaps the ancestral home of human civilization. So she went to ... Omsk.
- She was interested, did not see anyone of us of a temple in the outskirts of the city - recalls Boris Melnikov. - She said that she had a vision: a river, hill and trees growing on it. We do not know whether we are where this place. We know, we say it Okunevo. While in the area worked Muromtsevsky archeological expedition led by the head of our department, and we decided to send a prank Rasma Rozite to his digs. After wandering the neighborhood, she said that it was here ten thousand years ago there was a temple.
Holy place was finally found.
A holy place, as everyone knows, is never empty. Rasma bought a house there, formed a community and an avid Okunevo rushed to the unusual folk.
- In the late 90's - continues to Boris Melnikov - a neat, when it was an eclipse of the sun, there took place something like a world forum. I was in Okunevo at the time, there is a situation of mass hysteria.
On the outskirts of wandering over a thousand people a day mantra sung, many Vision: UFOs fly, a horse galloping across the sky, naked women appear ... But when it begins to haunt me knows that, in the Orthodox Church is unambiguously interpreted as a manifestation of evil spirits.
I have the impression that it is this strength and attracted a Okunevo pilgrims. When I was in the 80 th year, came to this area, there was a clean, beautiful place. Now, as they say psychics, this place has deteriorated energy.
I, at least, can not stand more than a day - the soul becomes difficult and uncomfortable. I feel as if you from the zone something pops. I do not want to hold direct analogies, and to make any reference to the area, but since then, as in Okunevo stretched inadequate personality and began to pray there is not clear to whom, I began to notice that people in one way or another connected with this place, afflicted every misfortune.
We have been in the area upset personal lives, some lost children, there are cases of babies born with severe developmental disabilities. And they die people who participated in archaeological excavations in the area. Officially, the reasons for completely natural, but a few deaths - it is statistics. And one of the last - right at the site ...
Perhaps not accidentally, in 1999, members procession "For Faith and Loyalty", en route from Vladivostok to Moscow, near the altar babadzhistov installed worship the cross. As they say, "Grace must come to the place where it is most needed" ...
The community also continued to grow and build a grandiose plans. For example, how to buy holy place - 90 acres! - From the state. The fact that there are more than 30 archeological monuments: ancient people, barrow, mound, place of worship of our ancestors, the workshop of the Stone Age, burial grounds, the latest of which is dated XVII century and the earliest dates back to the Neolithic (New Stone Age, where a third millennium BC), they did not disturb.
It did not worry that the 1994 decision of the governor of the Omsk region, these archaeological sites were put on state protection.
- Right on the altar of a burial ground dug up! - Indignant Boris Melnikov. - One way all dug and dug for a while in her veins - a monument archeology!
- In April 1996 we went into the community - specialist recalls the main department of culture and art of the Omsk region, archaeologist Michael Safarov - met with Rasma Rosita. She wondered whether the land purchase in the property. We have stated that they are protected archaeological monuments and sell the land can not. After that, the question of their buying community has lost sharpness, and this time, thank God, came down to nothing.
But for almost ten years have not stopped trying to stake a okunev zone by various associations. And not only in Omsk, but also from other cities. Thus, the first of this century, a kind of socio-political unification of the city of Kuibyshev announced its intention to establish a Directorate of Historical and Cultural Park "Okunevo.
- In order to normalize the situation - says the lawyer, an expert on legal issues of the main department of culture and art of Omsk Region Arthur Borisov - by decree of the governor of the territory Muromtsevsky area are three natural history and recreational security zone, which includes Okunevo. Now the procedure of approval.
The organization of these territories, in particular, will ensure the proper protection of natural resources and historical and cultural monuments okunev zone forever shield them from whoever was encroachment. The only pity is that it is not fast and is now dragging into its third year ...
Information: Okunevo village located near the district center Muromtsev, about 250 km north of Omsk.
