The situation around of search of fair remains Alapayevsk of martyrs is made comments by Dmitry Napara

From edition: On the last Friday Russian line informed on a situation around of search of burial place Alapayevsk of martyrs in Beijing. Unfortunately, in territory of embassy of the Russian Federation in China people, apparently, badly understanding the spiritual party of a question have borrowed in carrying out of excavation. Excavation have started without blessing, being guided, probably, ambitious aspiration to be the first, instead of interests of business. The result has turned out corresponding. We have asked to comment on a situation of the initiator of carrying out of search works of Dmitry Naparu which has put many forces to draw attention of the orthodox public to destiny of burial place Alapayevsk of martyrs. Its clauses published not time RL (sm, napr.: Alapaevskie Martyrs in Beijing. The orthodox public hopes, that authority vozmyotsja, at last, for the decision of a problem and the exact place of burial place Alapayevsk of Martyrs Is established. Now a word behind authority: church and secular).

RL: How you can comment on a situation?

Napara: I have read through on your site the information about so-called " search works " which were spent on the location of the base of a temple of All sacred martyrs in territory of Embassy of Russia to the Peoples Republic of China... Hard. Has gone has looked at a hole... The daughter spoke Me, that dug on a place of a temple (I three weeks was not in Beijing), but I have not believed. Really in modern Russia the end official bezpredelu will be never put? Present a situation - on the Red area of Moscow or, say, on the Battlefield of St.-Petersburg there are groups " black pathfinders " which start to dig the ground in searches of historical relics, not observing thus of any rules and norms. And the first assistants, for example, Jury Luzhkov or Valentiny Matvienko periodically appear on raskopah and interested: " How are you doing at you, children? " Delirium. But here on the base of temple Bozhija, on a place where - not years, by centuries served the Divine Liturgy (a temple of All sacred martyrs has been constructed there where before destruction in the beginning of the last century ihetuanjami there was a church in honour of prelate Likijskih Nikolay Chudotvortsa's World, in turn constructed, probably, on a place Buddhist kumirni in XVII century so-called "albazintsami"). On a sacred place for any orthodox person where on one of versions should be power of 222 Chinese martyrs, remains arhipastyrej and pastors of Russian Orthodox Church, and also members of the Imperial surname, on this place it is possible forces of nonprofessionals, in any inexplicable haste, not observing elementary rules, not testing any responsibility, on this base of a temple it is possible varvarski to dig over all...

RL: And how such could happen?

Napara: the History of a question is those: after carrying out by experts of the authorized georadar researches on blessing Svjashchennonachalija RPTS there was a necessity to specify obtained data by carrying out of search works with opening a ground. As speech, I shall repeat, went about works on the base of a temple - the possible location sacred moshchej, burial places arhipastyrej and pastors of Russian Orthodox Church, and also members of the Imperial surname it was required to receive written blessing. The corresponding letter has been directed addressed to the Most holy Patriarch Moscow and vseja to Russia Alex. It was necessary to wait blessings of the Head of Church. In fact in the decision of this question should take part the Synod commission on canonization and OVTSS MT. And after reception of blessing - to generate a professional command in which the representative of the State Office of Public Prosecutor of Russia necessarily should be included. To find sources of financing and to start to work, as the consent of a management of Embassy to carrying out of search works with opening a ground already was available. And if for any reason the Most holy Patriarch would count carrying out of search works with opening a ground impossible now or prezhdevremnnym about any works, naturally, speeches could not and to be.

But someone has decided to operate without blessing. Without the representative of the State Office of Public Prosecutor. Without professionals - archeologists. The god it the judge... Surprises also another - fussy intention to break on a place where just dug where in hastily fallen asleep holes the base of a sacred temple settles down, a flower bed. Or to set this place with trees. And "project" of such perpetuating moves in Embassy the same people that dug on a place of a temple. People who anybody, except for itself do not represent. It is done intentionally. Instead of leaving all while as is. So that in the further - after reception of the consent of a management of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Svjashchennonachalija RPTS to carry out thoroughly joint project on which blessing will be received.

RL: Well, that happens to not correct any more. But what, in your opinion, it is necessary to do further?

Napara: From my nonprofessional point of view, now it is necessary to find an opportunity of carrying out of identification of those fragments of bones which have been found out at carrying out of " search works ". The part of bone remains has been thrown kopateljami on heaps of a ground. I, for example, cannot tell, whether it is bones of animals or human. It is convinced, that in this question as understand nothing B.Aleksandrov, main "zakopershchik" hasty raskopa, S.Goncharov, the Charge d'Affaires ad interim of Embassy of the Russian Federation in the Peoples Republic of China, supervised these "works".

Secondly, it is necessary, on my deepest belief, to receive the consent the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation on the admission of the representative of MT to detailed researches of all archival materials concerning by the period of destruction of a temple of All sacred martyrs - in fact for certain between Beijing and Moscow there was any correspondence at that time concerning to questions snosa the real estate of Mission and construction of ambassadorial buildings. Equally should be kept, I believe, various documents on hiring a labour, rent of lorries under export of parts of the destroyed temple, blown up Sacred vrat. Probably, the mention of destiny will be found in correspondence or documents sacred moshchej and burial places also. And what happens with a tomb of general D.L.Horvata? Too it is not known.

Thirdly, it is necessary to lead joint - the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and MT - the open competition on the best project of preservation of the base of a temple of All sacred martyrs. From my point of view, the best this base it would be accurate and slowly to release from the ground up to a base plate - to deduce from nonexistence the kept walls - and zasejat space around of walls a grass. The temple open-air would turn out. In it could serve the Divine Liturgy.

Fourthly, to define in territory of Embassy of Russia in the Peoples Republic of China historical security zones, any economic (and bezhozjajstvennaja too) activity inside of which should be made exclusively under the consent the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation and MT. Such zones as to me sees, should be a little: a site of the base destroyed Sacred vrat, around Uspenskogo a temple, around of was arhierejskih pokoev - so-called " Red fantszy ", on island around of the base of a temple of All sacred martyrs, D.L.Horvata's tomb and a well of the Chinese martyrs. It is necessary to cease to concern devil-may-carely to Russian historical heritage, in fact the present territory of Embassy - a part of former territory of the Russian Spiritual Mission in China - conducts the family tree with 1685 (!!!) year. And the heritage it belongs not to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, not to Embassy, not aleksandrovym and goncharovym, but only - to the state Russian.

Fifthly, to achieve the consent of the Chinese authorities to carrying out of joint scientific search works to the location of a former cemetery of Mission - present a golf of a field of park Qingnianhu. There is a probability of that, as sacred to power of 222 Chinese martyrs, both remains arhipastyrej and pastors of Russian Orthodox Church, and remains of members of the Imperial surname can stay there (I do not speak about military tombs and burial places of clergymen RPTS).

Sixthly, it is necessary to lead joint - the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and MT - the open competition on the best project of a monument to 222 Chinese martyrs which in due time decorated territory of Mission and was above a "martyr" well. And then this project to embody.

Seventhly, well to carry out the colourful edition of the brochure on history of Embassy and Mission in Russian, Chinese and English languages... I Hope, that with Sergey Sergeevicha Razova's arrival - the new Ambassador of Russia in China - these, and other, good wishes begin to be embodied gradually during a life.
