A Portrait

"When night comes and people's mind dreams, spirit of things comes to life then..."

     They say in this way, although one can rarely manage to see the presence of a spirit. Why? May be nobody needs it, may be in order not to scare ordinary mortals by one's knowledge. Indeed, ghosts are less burdened by perishable things. Who knows! Ghosts? Scarcely they would say the truth, it is just the same as to ask a card-sharper about his cards. At the very least you will have an opportunity to become acquainted with a ghost-cranks who would desire to carry out some experiments. For example, to play the truth with you in order to organize a new trap in which you will get again.

     There is a magic portrait which hangs on a wall of one of St.Petersburg companies, and a ghost of a magic portrait is exactly such a crank. Born by caprice of an artist who hasn't been painting portraits for several years, the portrait has burst into our world and opened an invisible window to a parallel world. Evidently in the parallel world a picture appeared as well by chance, being a reflection of the portrait. But don't be in a hurry to get into the window and to fly towards uncertainty. As any passage in a Light World, this one has its own traps and secret paths in order to protect curious persons from risky voyage. That is why let's muse on it! If there is a face painted on a picture, so it is evident that there is a spirit guarding the portrait. In the case we are talking about mythical Fedor Konstantinovich Fominsky. In case somebody doesn't know who is he I would advise to read Live of the prince or at least a passage of book about his life.

     And now, having asked for permission, let's look into the portrait's eyes and try to grasp ideas of the prince and to believe in him. Indeed a belief is the main thing in a Light world and not only in it. Don't think belief is a believer's destiny only, no, it is destiny of a man in general and regards not only complicated philosophical things but ordinary everyday things as well. Scientists and politicians, wives and husbands, pragmatic business people - everybody do believe, and first and foremost they believe in things they see and feel, getting them as datum. As one of the sages said : "The main illusion is that we accept things with which we are familiar with as the truth". If someone doubts, he can look at himself from aside and, if his memory allows, he would see his thoughts and outlook had been changing in days, as well as he by himself had been changing together with his surroundings.

     Often for us, who had been raised up in materialistic world, it is difficult to understand. It is usual to consider that everything is directed by scientifically determined regularity and the difference only is whether academics had determined the regularities already or not. I am not willing to argue as they say an argument used to turn into a conflict, but if during the whole history people keep on believing - this is a regularity by itself, the regularity of people's beliefs reality.

     As well they say that scientifically proved fact is the one which is possible to repeat one more time; usually in this case give an example famous Newton apple, though they always say that every time apple falls down in different way and admit existing of some error. Though usually a problem arises then: whether it is a fact when somebody watched ripple on water or heard whisper of leaves on a tree?

     Just try to repeat the facts! Each time a picture is different, and you - believe me - would never repeat your tests absolutely precisely, always there will be an error and one can talk only about an extent of similarity of facts but not of their repetition. Thus all the discovered material laws are only ours belief in their capacity to work and nothing more.

     Anyway, lets' be back to the portrait. Let's look into the prince's eyes one more time! The eyes giving a way into parallel world try to protect materialistic pagans, for they, once having seen an unusual world can drive crazy easily. According to a not very popular theory one can drive crazy when he lost - totally or partly - a capacity to believe into what does he see. Normal person sees only part of real diversity.

     And now, if you hadn't become tired of introduction, for a while we would move into a parallel world using the eyes of mythical prince. And, please, leave all the material things of the world at their own place - it is too material and will not reach in any way!

     Only things which submit neither time nor space are able move outside of time and space. It is not like in Hollywood movies one can pull guns and even nuclear bombs through energetic canals, and a person is so strong that is able to fight with matrix of the world. In case you have such a fantasy, please, keep away from the portrait. Light World may not understand your humor as well as you wouldn't understand if your reflection in a mirror once would decide to manage your life. Most likely you wouldn't notice it as it is a mere reflection indeed. So, let's start our way! Let's go into the World where Rus' exists, Rus' which we hadn't known yet!
