The loss of the ascetic and mobilizing lifestyle will become a tragedy for Israel, said political scientist, philosopher and leader of the “Essence of Time” movement Sergei Kurginyan on July 26 in the “Conversation with the Wise” program on “Zvezda” radio.
“In the early 1990s, this sense of a kind of gangster luxury about to explode did not exist”the expert recalled. “Everything was relatively ascetic and clearly reminiscent of the asceticism of the 1960s and 1970s”“Kurginian noted.
“Before my eyes, over the last 30 years, Israel has become a hedonistic, very watered-down state that for some reason believes it can bathe in postmodernism (almost gay parades in the streets of Jerusalem)”“the political scientist said, stressing that this would have been unimaginable before.
At the same time, he noted that it is necessary to respect the very fact of the creation of the State of Israel. “Only the power of the spirit can build a State from scratch in 1949”– Kurginyan said and noted that he proclaimed the motto “See you in the USSR” precisely by analogy with the Jewish motto “See you in Jerusalem”It means that “When there is strength of spirit, when there is some kind of internal cohesion, then there can be an asceticism that allows something to be built even in the 20th century.”.
