RUSSIAN WORLD
Summary:
View help for Summary
Russia is indeed the abode of fatal and total non-freedom, but this
must be understood more deeply and without "vodka-matreshka" populism.
Freedom in national understanding is unconditional; the absence of all
“if ifs and ans were pots and pans” is something genuine, real.
The context of "Russian freedom" is deeply archaic
in the noblest sense of the word: it is religious, as opposed to
freedom-opportunity suggesting an alternative, and therefore limiting
duality. That is why nobody managed to enslave the Russians, except for
their own bureaucrats.
The Russian way is to surpass the world around us — and this is the essence of creativity and superation.
Not to adapt, but to soar above the objective reality given to us in
sensations, with the help of subjective sensations — is not it a
challenge and an answer to all-powerful Fate?
Russian destiny is the tragedy of the ascent of the human spirit over inhuman circumstances.
