They were meant to be restored by me, but these buildings, and the people who had lived there before, and those who were supposed to leave — that was all controlled by the system. And what’s most interesting is that this is an anomalous zone, the only part that wasn’t scanned by all those ideologists who scan everything via satellite. They hadn’t scanned this area because it was a border zone. Plus, it had such protection — immediately, soldiers stand at the entrance. I realized that the system is protecting me here, so what is supposed to happen that I need to be in such a place, from what it will protect me, or what should happen there, or why it’s happening. But I knew that sooner or later, I would build everything and just live there. Maybe because it’s an anomalous place under St. Petersburg, and it means something. But for what purpose, I don’t know.
Question: You touched on the topic of the church, mentioning that many people are unbelievers and don’t understand what they are doing. Is there any meaning in going to church if you feel nothing and don’t understand? That is, if a person forces themselves to go to a service, get baptized, pray, go through confession, and communion, will they eventually awaken, even if they don’t know what it is and how it works, or will this approach give them nothing? In your book, you somewhat mock such unconscious actions, but on the other hand, you often repeated that if you close yourself off, you should pray, go to church, and confess.
But you see, this is how your minds, people’s minds, are arranged. I say that I go to church every day, but there are people there who feel nothing, sinful, angry. And you see it as if I’m mocking the church. How? Wait a second. I’m saying that I go there every day. But you twist it all, take things out of context. That’s not good to do. But it’s good that you showed me how a person can see information in my book from a different, incorrect angle; this is very helpful. I’ve always tried to publish drafts of my chapters for that reason — to see such foolish remarks or comments, or false, unclear conclusions, so I could later correct them in the chapter, take them into account, so that a person wouldn’t fill in the gaps with their own assumptions, with the impurity and corruption of their soul. But it’s true, what you’re saying right now — that there are a lot of people who go to church, and when I look at them,
