They dug up the monastery grounds and removed much of the tunnel system. It was a hazard and needed done, for the young were finding the entrances. That includes me… đŸ™‚ I knew about them years ago, but now after they found the main chamber, they dug it up, removed the items inside, hauled off the brick to the lake dam and refilled the holes and ditches left, with black dirt from the fish farm.

Three black Mercedes cars roared up the hill, full of monks. Then soon followed a huge Mercedes windowless van, driven by more monks with guns, that was a typical armored van for banks in Russia. After they all left, we the pions, were able to run around and look at the left overs. They tore our road to mush and that happened, because they hauled 50 loads of brick out and 50 loads of dirt back in. The brick became dam filler after the important stuff disappeared in the van… Cool huh?
Oh, if you have not gathered, the Orthodox Church is a very powerful organization in Russia. If anyone benefited from the fall of the Soviet Union, the Orthodox Church did. Just a tidbit of info to let you contemplate reality for a few minutes…
Yesterday was a very profitable day for the Orthodox and ParĂ¡ Lake, the fish farm…
An interesting thing coming out as they dig around the bell tower, the base of the tower is deep in the ground and yesterday they discovered that there is, as I said years ago, at least two levels below the surface of the bell tower. They really thought that they could easily uncover the foundation and have since found out that only the wall sections are shallow at around two meters deep. The buildings are deep, deeper than comprehension, but since the bell tower does not have stress cracks from settling and we are on nothing but old sand dunes. It makes sense to me that they had to go deep, really deep and set many pilings to support this huge building. You do not just toss a brick monolith upon an old sand dune and hope it stays in one piece. The lower levels are just normal for the course, when you build a tower like this…
They also found that when they removed about a meter of soil in front of the bell tower, they found a massive ceiling to the lower levels of brick. This has put a change of plans in to place, for it is unknown at this point how far away from the tower does all this brick go?
It is amazing to think about construction of a tower like this back in 1906 and in the middle of nowhere, by hand, horse and cart. It really is a masterpiece of construction and I wonder if we are even capable in this day and age of do such detailed strong work. It makes me wonder, what has happened to us in this world?
Best shallow spot of the brick level buried under ground. I found four unearthed spots, one spot as far as 25 meters from the tower. Another piece of the puzzle…
There are things that only the dead know about, but if the living takes its time, we will discover all that there is to discover in this holy of holiest villages. Just wait until they find the Saints burial spots!
Female Saints, buried here in the past, are crying, desiring unearthed status and respected, all within this tiny village…
Have a nice day…
