Иван Негреев - Лекция о священных камнях - текст песни, слова, перевод, видео

We continue our conversations about sacred symbols in the history of religion. Much has been said in previous lectures, and this time we will talk about sacred stones. It’s ironic, but stones are the first thing that meets us in the history of mankind, both in everyday life and in a religious-symbolic sense. There are many varieties of religious veneration of stones, as well as the sacred stones themselves. There are sacred altar stones and idol stones, burial stones and fertilizing stones, thunder stones and healing stones. The great Romanian religious scholar once very accurately noted: “people have always worshiped stones, simply because they represented something other than themselves. They worshiped stones as instruments of spiritual action, as a focus of energy.”
