History 22/03/20 public domainВанга: how many times were wrong famous prophetess
the debate about Vanga and attributed to her gift of clairvoyance not subside until now, and “Vanga predictions” continue to occupy the top ranks of major search engines of the Internet.
Not a Saint
One of the most pressing issues that will certainly arise during discussion of the cult of Vanga, is the attitude of the Orthodox Church. Furious fans of soothsayer like to claim that it has already been canonized. Particularly fierce – that canonized while still alive: if the Patriarch of Bulgaria Maxim recognized the Holy Wang in 1994. There is a problem: this year, Patriarch Maxim was the Patriarch of Bulgaria. In 1992 there was a split in the Bulgarian Church and official head of the Bulgarian Orthodox Church was Metropolitan Pimen, who sent Maxim to resign. In addition, Wang did not commit anything that could be a reason for canonization. On the contrary – predicted the future for people that Christian laws is a sin. After his visions, when Baba Vanga began to speak their voice and she was having seizures, she claimed to communicate with some votes, called them “a small force”. They talked to her, told. It is not surprising that the Church saw (and see) these “small and large forces,” demons.
a Separate discussion of the temple which was built by Vanga in Rupite. The Church was built, the assurances of Vanga, in honor of St. Paraskeva, but in fact the Church is only one “icon”. In quotes because to call the image icon do not dare. It looks more like a photograph of a young girl. The frescoes in the Church recall the images of the dead and not the canonical images of saints. Portrait of Vanga over the Royal throne, portrait of Vanga on the mural at the entrance – it is obvious that the building was built in honor of a Christian Saint in name only. Interesting and the reasons InAnga to the construction on the gate house of the fortune teller hanged Ivan Good, her guard.
Wang and intelligence agencies
in the beginning of his career “clairvoyant” when was the Second world war, Wang has become an object of interest of the Bulgarian police. The competent authorities asked Wang, what you say to her visitors, representing operational interest. Such contacts are known “psychics” and intelligence services are not uncommon. Further – more. Wang was hired as a researcher at the Sofia Institute of suggestology and parapsychology of the Academy of Sciences of Bulgaria. This unusual Institute was established in 1968. Wang, who did not like scholars, to the employees of this scientific institution was very loyal. When dealing with them she learned well the methods of hypnosis and of influencing people. When the talented Bulgarian marketers made Vanga brand, then it began to come very influential guests from around the world. Not to use that intelligence agencies simply could not. In the Petrich was built a special hotel for guests of Vanga. The staff was duly instructed. The flow of people to Vanga was huge, people waited for weeks for their turn, talked, talked about life.
significant in this respect the memoirs of Yuri Gornji: “During the telephone conversation, I asked a friend of the journalist that he does, while waiting for a meeting with Wang, he told me that killing time, drinking beer and soon going to the bath. I gave him a tip: before you go to bathe, to put a band-aid the scrotum, which he did”. At the meeting, Wang talked a lot to the journalist about how he’s a big man, he works in the newspaper “Pravda”. Then followed assurances that in the future a visitor will be fine, but with one caveat – procreation the journalist will not, because he’s wounded genitals…”
Wang and healing
To Wang drove thousands of people not only in order to know the future. People also believe that Wang was able to cure diseases. In fact her “lechenie” was based on a widely known folk methods, but the recipes are spoken by the Vanga people are willing to take on faith. Was quite strange tips. One woman who came at the request of her ailing husband, Wang advised to find red young rooster who is under a year. Catch it, crack the chest of the bird and pull out a still beating heart. After that, the heart dipped in a bottle of wine and then put the bottle in a dark place for three days. Then give your husband to drink for three evenings a glass of wine. Such are the strange magical methods. And this despite the fact that their loved ones, and herself, Wang could not cure. Her husband had died from cirrhosis of the liver caused by alcoholism.
Hysteria
“Phenomenon” Vanga convincing enough to explain in the framework of psychiatry. It is known that Wang suffered from hysterical seizures. They describe and niece Vanga: “after Learning about an impending disaster… my aunt turns pale, faints, with her mouth flies incoherent words and voice in such moments has nothing to do with her regular voice.” People in such a severe form of hysteria called “hysteria” (from the word “clicking”, i.e. screaming, yelling). The phenomenon is widely known. Back in 1900, when clinical psychiatry in Russia was only developing psychiatrist Nicholas Krajina released the book “Curses, hysterical and possessed as a phenomenon of Russian national life” with a Foreword by academician Vladimir Bekhterev, who defined hysteria as a disease state, “which is based on hysterical neurosis.”
King Boris and Hitler
Niece Vanga Krassimira Stoyanova, in his book claims that in April 1942, Wang visited the Bulgarian king Boris, to whom she foretold the death of 28 August. “King, no questions asked, gone very embarrassed. He died on 28 August 1943”. There is also a legend that in 1943, to Vanga came Adolf Hitler, who Vanga prophesied the defeat of the Soviet Union. No documentarys evidence neither the first nor the second appointment did not exist. Most likely, Wang, as well as wolf messing, have created a mythology that no significant figures were not as convincing. These “historical” meeting denies the fact that in the early 40-ies of the Vanga was widely known, and her “clients” were the only inhabitants of the town of Strumica.
Business
Wang has been and remains very profitable item in the tourism business in Bulgaria. A variety of charms, books, things “sanctified” Vanga to this day are popular and well sold to tourists. Itself Wang met with his visitors and he predicted they are not free. There was a price list prices. For local visitors the entrance was 10 leva (20 euros), and foreign – $ 50. Money for the reception went to the city Treasury and to the Fund the name of Vanga, who headed one of her godchildren. It should be noted that not all of their guests (already paid for the visit) Wang said a word. Many simply were not allowed to enter. Thus, if we consider that the number of visitors to Baba Vanga more than a million people, the profitability was extremely high. At the end of life of Vanga for her money turned serious war, which involved the relatives of the prophecy, the Foundation of Vanga, the Bulgarian government and several “spiritual organizations” sectarian sense.
were the predictions?
Talking about “predictions” Vanga deserves special attention. The problem is that the recorded prophecies, it is owned by the Bulgarian prophetess, almost there. The calculations of the “correctness” of the predictions is still under way, but they do not have an open methodology, without which any scientific research being just speculation. Interesting in this respect, the history of the rubric “political predictions from Vanga”, which for a year and a half “made copies” of the magazine “the Lights of Bulgaria”. It turned out that the journalists themselves wrote the lyrics, and then broughtand to a reconciliation of Vanga. Approximately today written to the newspaper horoscopes. Vanga fans like to refer to the psychologist Dobriana Velichko, who allegedly conducted the study said that, Vanga and showed that 63.8% of her predictions are always true. Would you get treatment from a doctor who doctor 63.8%?
