The applied foundations

      A well-known foundation of all the modern philosophy is the famous Descartes' aphorism: "I think therefore I am".    Certainly, the matter goes be not about this, but about more special case, which is applied to the present-day reality and not only present one.
      A pure theory (pure in the sense that it is without an experimental verification) accumulating mistakes in time it becomes weak and untenable. The pure theorizing behaves as a great number of operations with calculus approximations: the errors accumulate. They accumulate in spite of the fact, that initial data seem to be exact and not provoking any doubts.
      Imagine someone would start to develop a theory and in the very beginning it would be completely absurd data, for example, he would take as a principle supposedly the Earth exists in the form of a cube. What would be a historical fortune of such a philosophy? But it would sink into oblivion long ago, would be forgotten and since first steps it would be unable to withstand any competition and if it remained only to entertain and cheer up the readership. No. There is not a philosophy which originates from an evident absurd. All of them look persuasively like trees with delineated clear trunks and main bough. Then such the tree becomes be covered with branches and twigs, all of this turns little by little into a labyrinth which it is easy to be misled in. And it is natural that every creator praises his creation. The Praises ring, it sort of: "The doctrine of Marx is all-powerful, because it is true".
      You may spend all the life for learning every little twig of the sort of a theoretical "tree" or of several ones (certainly, if you will be in time for it), but do not understand until the end of your life, who is right. But if you taste a "fruit" either of one or of another "tree" - only after this all will be clear.
      Take notice, please, is it possible to ascertain the fact of toxicity of the toadstool (Amanita falloides) only theoretically? Perhaps, nobody still decided to undertake to do this work. But one does not gather toadstools, proceeding from bitter experience of those who was poisoned.
      It so happened that the previous twentieth century proves to be a centure of the cognition, a century of the experiences. The experience with the Marxist philosophy was carried out almost perfectly. It was taken to carrying the experience a great number of the absolutely different nations with different religions, different mentalities, with different levels of the development and levels of the income. But the same socialisms did not fail in the variety, if one takes into account the German national socialism too. Now call please at least only one country, where the Marx's doctrine has implanted the earthly paradise. But don't tell about China, please, which has succeeded in economics by deception all the world with his inexpensive and unfit production, but not thanks to the ideas of the Marxism-Leninism. The conclusion is obvious: the ideas of communism are a bane. Both the communism and the national socialism are the bane which is thrown out on the dump of the history by all the progressive humanity. And only the backwardest countries, mainly in ideology, like a degraded tramp, they take from the dump this carrion and taste it. As to Germany, it had become a great one, a developed one and a free one, and all this became without any types as a "fuerer". Only some failures countries, in the person of considerable part of their citizens, they dream about Lenin, Stalin and Hitler.
      We live in a happy time when the poisonous fruit is recognized which fascinated peoples so heavily during some recent centuries. This knowledge is received by paying an exorbitant price, the price as a sacrificing tens of millions of lives. Only those, who has not the courage to break with bad habits which went from the bitter experience of the past, and those who, without meditating, make it possible for to deceive them, only they continue to worship these idols of the dark period of the past, the idols which are aiready dethroned long ago, and they continue to serve as helping to the satanic forces of the communism and of the fascism. Sometimes, they attempt to produce an absurd comparison between the ideas of the communism and the Christianity. Here is we come to one of the foundations.
      Christ preached the primacy a personality above a crowd: "Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake. Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for joy: for, behold, your reward is great in heaven: for in the like manner did their fathers unto the prophets". Right here the real practical communism gives a recommendation which is differing absolutely. All the way it is induced to believe by the communists that an individual alone is a nonentity but  all people together are supposedly a great force. What result this "great force" led to, in was said very well about, by one of the famous politicians: "One would like how be better, but it has turned out as always". But it will turn so always, because this is a natural appropriateness: there, where the herd feeling is dominating and the individualism is despised, the initiative is suppressed, don't expect that something useful will be produced or created in such a social atmosphere. If it's consumer goods - they will not stand the competition, if it's a social formation, it will resemble very much the fable "Quartet" written by famous fabulist Krylov "And you, my friends, however would you sit, All the same you are not cut out to be musicians" (А вы, друзья, как ни садитесь - Все в музыканты не годитесь-in Russian). What good is a theory, if there are many obvious cases in the developed and flourishing countries in the West where it is individualism which is prevailing, not the collectivism? There it is primacy a personality above a crowd which takes place and not by another way. This is the principal foundation of the reality, and it is not difficult to remember it.
      The second foundation is the values: God, Love, Truth, Liberty. It is the veritable values, which against, the world imposes the false ones: "Motherland", nation, state, organization, party. On these issues, it is better to be based not on discourses which can draw away, one does not know where, far and for a long time, but on the practical examples. There is not on the whole the conception of "Motherland" in England, what about it was saying one day clear by radio B.B.C. If the English and the Americans love their country, they have what for to love it. If someone of them loses his country, he will lose his liberty, will lose the law, which protect him, he will lose the possibility to employ his talent for the common good (and it is obligatory moreover for his own good and for the good of his family) - in a word he will lose all. If a Russian loses his country, what he will lose? Will he lose a great number of untalented officials who are bred beyond measure and he feeds them? Will he lose the employers who with impunity does not pay on time? He will lose bad cops, who do not protect him in most cases, but one day they can charge him with a crime which he have not committed, isn't right? Will he lose stinkers who once can blow up secretly or destroy by bombing openly his house, making it for reasons of the political adventurism? Or he will lose certains others stinkers who can send by force his son for "suppressing Caucasus", but in fact to sow the death and the crimes and at the end of the day to pay with his life for this, will he? But to become a free and a self-respecting human, just one needs very little: only to realize that the above-listed here persons are the real enemies, the invaders who was destroying his real country in 1917 and is comfortable on its body decomposed, and the "Motherland", they try to force people to liking for under pressure,  it is only their satanic idol which these monsters attempt to justify every their crime by and this idol bears no resemblance to the native land which was sung by the poet Esenin. It would not be superfluous to remember that Hitler forced his people to love the "Motherland" too. As for the nation, certainly he did the same and we shall dwell on this. Now do well to remind, if the supporters of the Soviet-patriotism indicate to West, that they are, they say, too, no less than our patriots, but in actual fact they are patriots but not the same ones. The western patriotism differs that they approve state for man, not man for the state as it is trying to impose by Soviet or post-Soviet ideological workers or patriotic educators. Attempt, please, to an American that he owes very much to America and whatever he does, he will not pay this debt ever and will remain a perpetual debtor. I suppose he would just think that you begin to go mad. If somebody loves his country, there is not something bad, when there is something what for to love it. But to sing praises for a state which mistreat him - it is the glorification of a slave of this state and the evident indicator of the slavish mentality.
      The idea of nation is considered in detail in my "Highland" (Высокогорье) but against a background of the events, which are going on, one must not skip over one aspect of the national issues, which is not examined there. Yes, a nation is a crowd, it would not be ranked with the eternal values, it cannot be attributed to an individual as a guilt or a merit, or a point of a somebody's pride. Here it is the matter about the liberation certain nation from Soviet or pro-Soviet regime, now called the orange revolutions, and I can only greet them. For example, Ukraine just would not can physically liberate all the enslaved countries of the world, including China, North Korea and Cuba. Ukraine can liberate only Ukraine, not partially, but completely.
      And here lies the danger of an improper alignment of values. Men helping liberate their nation, they do it not for the nation but for the liberty in the first place, for everybody would be free individually. In the process of liberation everybody takes action that to liberate himself and his intimates in spirit and on relationship, but at all not as a debtor paying any non-existent debt to any abstract nationality.
      The mechanism of the national relations is not so complicated. It is simple comparatively and there is not a necessity in creating some philosophic mazes around the issue of the national relationships. For the starting it is enough to learn a simple rule: if one does not know anyone, but one knows his nationality, he can say only about a probability of the further behaviour of the stranger, but one has not absolutely any moral right to judge anyone by his nationality. The sole admissible negative relationship with a stranger, it is the distrust of him, but again, regardless of the nationality of the stranger. But this distrust must not seem as an insult like a door lock or an alarm on a window not look as an insult too.
      The ethnic strife is the evil which is able to antagonize each other that peoples who both would can struggle hand in hand against the same enemy, and this strife is not approved in the Holy Writs: not in the Bible, not in the Koran, not in the Bhagavad-Gita, not in others ones. But the main evil is that instead of the yoke, what it is wanted to free from, one proposes a new other yoke of the service to the nationality; so it is shifting to the side of the primacy the crowd above a personality and if not to stop in time, it will bring to the totalitarianism inevitably.
      The primacy personality above a crowd is not a power above the crowd at all. Because any despot is a part of this crowd, not a personality, and here it doesn't matter, what a situation he occupies in this crowd, top or lower. The primary condition is not found above the crowd, but outside the crowd. It is not obligatory to be outside the crowd physically. It is a spiritual hermit's life, that is to have an own opinion, don't judge by categories and by notions of the crowd, for not stop in development but to develop more, to become perfect more regardless of an opinion of the crowd, or not to let humans of the crowd in own system of values at all. It would be the same Christian western individualism.
      And here it is only two things as the foundations which it would better remember.
      The first foundation: the primacy a personality above the crowd is the veritable Christianity. The primacy of a society above a personality, this is the satanic evil driving to the totalitarianism.
      The second foundation: the veritable freeing values are: God, Love, Truth, Liberty. The fake enslaving values, there are: "Motherland", nation, state, organisation, party.
      Only you will choose between these values. Nobody will do it instead of yourself.
