    Achilles

    I’ll try to be an “expert” or a “forecaster” for a little while, which, in general, is the same thing. At least, in the case of the former schema-abbot Sergius (Romanov), I guessed almost completely - even when they began to forbid him to speak publicly, and he disobeyed for the first time, I immediately predicted the whole logic of the further development of events - Romanov would be admonished, then banned, then deprived ordination (even I didn’t think of excommunication from the Church), and Romanov himself will go wild and will only strengthen the position of his sect, gathering adherents around him, because he will have nothing to lose, and he has great support. Now, by the way, the question is: will Romanov decide to proclaim himself a bishop or even a patriarch (the name “Middle Ural Patriarchate” is already circulating online in all seriousness). Or the diocese will decide to take emergency measures, with the involvement of the security forces, and Romanov will be forcibly evicted from the monastery or even locked up in his usual environment - behind bars.

    In the case of the Chikhachev guru Schema-Archimandrite Ioannikis (Efimenko), the logic is also visible, but somewhat different. Let us remember that the diocese (first Ivanovo, then Kineshma) did not touch the Chikhachev “elder” for thirty years, because everything was fine, and later they were simply afraid. The Bishop of Kineshma, we recall, received threats, including physical violence - it’s not for nothing that so many criminally marginal subjects graze around Ioannikios.

    But now the diocese had to act - after the publications on Achilles, and after us - in the secular media, after a request from a deputy and the establishment of an investigation - there was nowhere to go, it is possible that the patriarchy also shouted and ordered to “sort it out.”

    And the diocese “sorted it out” - the “elder,” who was no longer serving due to disability (he had no leg), was banned from serving and removed from his position as abbot. But since Efimenko is registered in Chikhachevo, he will most likely remain there. As Archpriest Andrei Efanov , who was involved in this matter, said: it is impossible, they say, to prohibit citizen Efimenko from receiving people who come to him. (It’s definitely not possible? But taking the monk Efimenko and exiling him to rest in a distant monastery under the supervision of a strict superior and forbidding visitors there is weak?)

    Now the diocese is going to try the schema-archimandrite in a church court. There is a possibility that he will be defrocked, and then they will simply wash their hands, saying that now all the affairs of citizen Efimenko are not our problem.

    But the problem remains. Firstly, Efimenko is not Romanov, he does not attack either the patriarch or the president, he does not scandal publicly, and many still do not understand what exactly his fault is (especially since such “elders” are a dime a dozen in monasteries , and in parishes). Secondly, Efimenko’s adherents, just like Romanov’s adherents, will only rally even more around their guru - now for them he is a “persecuted righteous man”, they will immediately remember and compare him with Christ, who was persecuted and betrayed by the bishops.

    Adherents Romanov and Efimenko are also united by contempt for Patriarch Kirill - it is very easy for the current far-right “conservatives” to feed accusations against Gundyaev as an “ecumenist” and a “heretic” who embraces the Pope. (And then the bishop of the Russian Orthodox Church recently took part in a common action with Pope Francis and Patriarch Bartholomew, thereby adding more wood to the fire under the feet of Patriarch Kirill.) And Covid (closing churches, disinfecting spoons, etc.) played a role among the “special believers” negative role, undermining the authority of the “cowardly” patriarch.

    Now, no matter what the patriarchal speakers say or diocesan officials do, nothing helps. First, the “elders” - “gurus” are nurtured for decades in the bowels of the Russian Orthodox Church, they are glorified, awarded, films are made about them, they serve together with them, they are allowed to pilgrimage to them, and then, when the “elders” begin to cause inconvenience - with their speeches or topics, that criminal cases are being opened against them - they are trying to urgently get rid of such “brothers” as ballast, but this does not help much; on the contrary, it only increases the popularity of the persecuted guru. Romanov captured the monastery, took many nuns and several priests with him, and retained and increased thousands of supporters. And the flow of adherents to Efimenko will increase even more, especially if he remains in Chikhachevo.

    It seems that the fight against sects within the Russian Orthodox Church can only become effective when they begin to fight not the consequences, but the causes. And a lot is said about the reasons on our website, for example, in our book on monasticism “Victims of the Angelic Order” . In the Russian Orthodox Church for thirty years they nurtured and cherished the cults of the elders - miracle workers, prayer books, healers, besogons, engaged in readings, sending hundreds of people to monasteries, of their own free will and at the request of the diocesan bishops, who needed to fill these monasteries. They indulged the people in their Orthodox paganism, making banal swindlers or deluded narcissists who believe in their “grace” old men in black robes as shepherds, and now it’s too late to clean it up, because the authority of the leadership of the Russian Orthodox Church has been lost, at least with the current leadership for sure. Whether anything will change with the change of Patriarch Kirill - time will tell. In the meantime, the time of the guru continues, the sheep are waiting to be speared and sent to the pigsty for obedience. As long as you don't hug the Pope.

    PS After the ban on the service of the Chikhachev guru, his adherents became even more active on our Yandex Zen and YouTube channels. Their comments are of the same type: “Lies! Slander! Order for the Holy Father!

    One typical comment even came to us in the mail, we will publish it, and you can draw your own conclusions:

    "Good afternoon!

    My name is Angelina, my family is from the Moscow region, and we have been visiting the temple where Ioannikios serves for more than 7 years.

    We arrive early for the service so that we can sleep in the old church; if there is no room, then we can go to the new church.

    The service is long, but in such a holy place you don’t notice how time flies, yes, it’s not advisable to go out during the service, but this is everyone’s business, and they lie that they don’t let you in and force you to stand for the service, you can calmly go outside, things don’t smell afterwards, as they write in the news (which takes months to air).

    After the service you can go out to eat, it’s all free, no one takes money, and no one is forced to go eat.

    A visit to the priest is the most joyful thing that can be, the priest is very good, kind, and after the first room he becomes a dear, close person with whom you want to have a heart-to-heart talk!

    No one takes away things at the entrance to the priest (as they write in the news), I personally visited the priest more than 15 times, and no one demands money there either.

    Also, last year my husband and I got married there, the price was 3000 (someone wrote 9000 - that’s a lie!)

    All donations are from yourself!!!

    If the priest tells someone to stay, then he sees that it is this person who needs help; he tells few people to stay there. If he speaks, then this is also for the person’s consideration; no one will force him! When you want, then you can leave!

    My parents travel several times a year and live for 2-3 weeks, work for the Glory of God, you need to realize this, the work they did was not difficult, chopping wood, cooking in the kitchen, working in the garden, just like our ancestors lived all their lives!!! !!

    We wanted to leave, we went to the priest, he gives a Blessing for the journey!

    This is the most sacred place on earth, where you want and want to come!!!

    I believe that people who slander this temple and Ioannikis should be prosecuted!!! I cried all day yesterday when I heard this news! It’s a pity that the authorities fell for the provocation of one woman, whose mother allegedly left her, it’s even scary to imagine what kind of daughter there is, from whom her mother simply ran away!!!

    I hope services will resume!!!!

    I want to attach my Instagram: angelinochkash

    I want to attach my Instagram so that local or Moscow authorities can get acquainted with my family and supposedly don’t think that “we are used to this smell, but they don’t demand money from us because we don’t have any.”

    We are for the church in Chikhachevo to be opened and Ioannikiy to continue to serve God!!!”
