Interview to the chapter of
Union of Slavic Communities


The union of Slavic communities has already legendary status among heathens organizations of the Slavic countries. I think, that to many our visitors, which know about Union of Slavic Communities a little, it would be interesting to learn(find out) about a history, purposes and sights of our organization.

The editor of page SCU - Speh has decided(solved) to set some questions to ours to the Chapter.    Vadim Kazakov  answers...

Be sensible Vadim!

V.К: be healthy, Speh!

Now many Russian people come to Native Religion, the think(idea) on association do not leave(abandon) many slavs. Our page is visited(attended) per day more by(with) than hundreds the man. Many people come for the first time and frequently nothing know about a history of occurrence SCU. Please, tell, with what all began. Also what has induced you to create the organization which has united already fourteen communities in Russian Federation, and to engage in enlightening activity?

V.К: in 1993, when I began from creation of the Kaluga Slavic Community, it was clear, that in the single we nothing can make. The way of so-called «independent» communities is a way in anywhere, to complete oblivion. And during last 9 years I not of time was convinced of the correctness. The history has given us a rare opportunity to restore that was at one time ruthlessly destroyed. And to restore it we could only together. Therefore I spent many forces and means for search of the adherents in Russia and other slavic countries. The search has shown a bad picture. Uttermost disorder in numbers(lines). And, that most important, was not of any slavic organization, which would put before herself a task on creation religious slavic faith. In the beginning I assumed to name new organization Slavic Union, but in 1997 on the first congress on the river Kaluzhka per Day Perun the representatives 5 communities after long disputes have decided(solved) to refuse this name. Reduction SS- (Soyz Slavjan / Union of Slavic) for some reason was not pleasant. So the new name Union of Slavic Communities has appeared.

What purposes SCU considers(counts) for itself main for today?

V.К: expansion of organization for the account already of existing communities, including allied. Attraction of the new allies. Creation of grounds of Slavic native religion and their device. And the faster we shall be united, the it will be better for all of us. The delay of death is like. We are ready to discuss with our new allies any conditions of rapproachement. Unique(sole), on what we shall not go, this transformation SCU in concourse болтунов, when the businesses do not follow words

On what conditions owes this rapproachement is under construction? You see as show these years, the sights of the leaders of communities are very different …

V.К: First of All, the chiefs of communities should give back themselves the report that early or late one large organization will unit tens small. Also there is a question, which organization it will make? For today such opportunities only at SCU. Thanking вечевому the right only SCU enables by all to participate in general(common) business, to influence activity of organization, instead of blindly to follow the instructions(indications) of «teachers». All main posts elective and the opinion of each colleague is taken into account. At the same time, in SCU rigid undivided authority, that allows quickly to accept the decisions. But just it so is not pleasant to many chiefs of communities, which everyone are not decided(solved) to not enter yet in SCU. Eventually, they all should enter, if they do not want to lose the communities. However it would be desirable by him(it) to remind a latin proverb: « late coming - bones ». 

Whether varied during these years, sights and vision of Process?

V.К: Varied, but is not so strong. For the correct direction was from the very beginning taken. SCU did not reflect as « a party(set) of one man ». And in it our force.  

SCU organization pursuing the purposes of religious association of the slavs of Russian Federation? Or our purpose religious association of all slavic peoples?

V.К: Certainly, all slavs.

Not the secret, that Russian people, as a whole sympathizing the national guided. public figures and associations, almost as does not help them financially. How you think, why it occurs, in what the reason?

V.К: I too sympathize the people, which till now only «sympathizes», nothing doing(making). Because the majority till now does not understand, that from actually Russian in Russia a little that depends. All wrongly identify Russia with the state Russian, or, if want, with Russian state, though even in the Constitution (Basic Law) Russia about Russian is not present word. If, in their opinion, Russia also is Russian state what for to help still any associations? Well and second, in Russia are no national conceiving rich people from Russian. And those Russian, which steel by the owners of the large means, aspire to take out them from the country, and here do not want to remain. And third, plenty of fine political parties(sets) indefinitely quarreling with each other, absence of the leader, uniform idea, all this does not add at all desire to help.

Whether there is an output(exit) from this critical situation, and with what you see it(him)?

V.К: to not hope for a kind uncle, and to hope it is necessary, first of all, on the forces. The houses and walls help. And there, where the Asian people should spend the large money for achievement of the purposes, it is possible to do without and other means.  

Vadim, on yours what means for achievement of our purposes, are necessary for today?

V.К: Now it is important to be engaged in education. And, basically, education of youth. The special attention should be given to work with the students of pedagogical high schools. It is the future teachers, workers of culture. They, by advancing on a service, will in some years in the channel, necessary to us, form public opinion. To learn(teach), to learn(teach) and once again to learn(teach). The personnel question is very important also. It is necessary to bring up the staff inside organization, to get rid of one nothing of the doing(making) people.  

What aggregate number of the people in SCU?

V.К: At us the calculation of the people coming not regularly is not conducted. Only of comrades. Therefore it is possible to tell only approximately. Approximately one thousand the man. On the one hand it it is not enough. On the other hand, it is more, than at any slavic organization in Russian Federation. Five years back were not also it.

In what world view of the Slav should consist? What is important for such man? Than it(he) is guided in the life?

 В.К: following to slavic customs, respect for memory of ancestors. And most important, that should be remembered by(with) the slav - his(its) life, his(its) ground, which gives it(him) food, has got to it(him) from ancestors. And it(he) also should take care of children. 

Continuation of a Slavic Sort a sacred duty for the slav?

V.К: Yes. If it(he) is sure, that his(its) posterity will be healthy.

Whether supports SCU what be national parties(sets) and movements?

V.К: As religious organization we under the law have not the right to support political parties(sets). But, naturally, each colleague SCU, as the citizen, has those or other political sights.

What attitude(relation) at SCU to Orthodox Church. Whether the positive dialogue with the right christians is possible(probable) on your sight. At us on idea a general(common) enemy - forces aspiring to create uniform «culture» for all peoples?

V.К: With Orthodox church we do not have any attitudes(relations). Not there whether is told: is not present neither Greek, nor Jew? About what assistance from their party there can be a speech?

Many Moscow " slavic pagans ", and "patriots", deceived liberals, consider(count) our interest to racial and demographic problems, strange and even harmful. Some "comrades", even name us for it of «chauvinists». Your way, in what a urgency of these themes for Russian and Slavs?

V.К: strange? What here strange, and, especially, harmful? Paganism - basis of national culture. And the national culture is at all not popular - concerts on TV. It and history, and archaeology, both racial knowledge, and other sciences.

On your sight, that will give the slavs returning to the old spiritual values. How it can affect the further development by ours Slavic - European Civilization?

V.К: the returning to the old spiritual values, first of all, will allow to keep the slavs as the people. And further it will be visible. Nobody knows, how the world will develop. 

How you consider(count), the Slavic World concerns to Europe or Asia?

V.К: To Europe, it is unconditional. Our roots in Europe. But you see the slavs have occupied spaces from Labas up to Amurs. There is no time also populated by the white people. It is impossible to overlook(forget) about it.   

And our Spiritual type. With what it(he) Northern, European or with what another? With whom to us itself to identify?

V.К: European, certainly. The slavs in anthropological the attitude(relation) belong to the large white European race. From same dolichocephalic of northern racial type in Europe there were - Slavic, German, Baltic  peoples. 

And according to this as you think, we should return to Europe (in sense of a spiritual type) or eternally to go on перепутье between Asia and Europe. Where we were dragged by(with) «our) history for last five hundred years?

V.К: Well why? The constant outflow of the population on east promoted growth of number of Russian people. Differently slavic population of Russia today would be equal to the population of Poland or Ukraine. 

How you think, man considering(counting) with the Slav is necessary to visit(attend) annual holidays? 

V.К: I think, it(he) is simply obliged it to do(make).

And what can give the modern man visiting of slavic holidays?

V.К: the slavic holidays help to feel to the man indissoluble communication(connection) between generations. It raises force of spirit. Helps to feel by the owner on the ground.

How the Slav should understand freedom?

В.К: Freedom should be limited there, where she(it) can do much harm to freedom of other man. Do(make) that want, but do not prevent anothers. Except for enemies, certainly. 

On yours, Rodnaja Vera (Slavic Paganism) the ideology or religion is more?

V.К: Both that, and another.

And what for us of the slavs ideology or religion now is more important? Here, for example, there is an opinion, that the religion separates, blood will unit.

V.К: blood in itself will not unit. Without ideology blood nothing will decide(solve). One Native Land, one Blood, one Language, one Slavic religion! Here that it is necessary!

Vadim, as you concern to idea « of Europe Fatherlands », based on a principle of the European White brotherhood. (Now about it speak in Russia and abroad much.) How on yours, can in 21 century the Slavic and German peoples find general(common) language?

V.К: I think, that can. They do not have choice. If not will be of the European White brotherhood, soon will not be white in general. The general(common) trouble should unit.

And what can pull together the Slavic and German peoples?

V.К: First, it is danger of disappearance from the person of the Earth. During many centuries the slavs and germans order among themselves struggle for superiority(championship) in Europe. Time now has come to be united against a general(common) enemy. I think, that as in Europe will remain ever less white, of disagreements between the slavs and germans will be ever less and less.   

What role the Slavic peoples will play in life of Europe in 21 century?

V.К: I think, that in 21 century they will be faster reserve for the white people in  to mixed Europe. 

And what role they should play in creation of the future general(common) White European house?

V.К: to tell a conducting role, it would be too self-confident. Let's tell so, not last role.  

Whether is the Slavic religion, how some think, return to the past?

V.К: Is not present, it is return of the past to the present that the future was held.

What for you Slavic Tradition, and what place you see for it(her) in a modern society(community)?

V.К: It is my life. I consider(count), that the Slavic Custom should become a basis of training of slavic children. And children this our future. 

The comparison, and in some cases direct mixing of traditions of the different Indo-European peoples is admitted on your sight? (it can rather frequently be met among Russian pagans)

V.К: Is not present, is not admitted.

Whether you agree what not environment(Wednesday), and the heredity is determining force in life of all peoples?

V.К: On the first place there is a heredity, then education and only then environment. 

Thank to you Vadim for interesting conversation. I hope that in new year, will be less problems in our numbers(lines). We shall adjust with many slavic peoples positive dialogue. Vadim, what you wanted to wish to the Slavs in coming New year?

V.К: I wish to all execution(performance) of treasured desires. That your words were always connected to businesses, and the businesses were only for the boon to a native Land! Glory to the Slavs!  Glory of Russia!
