An excerpt characterizing the Odessa State Agrarian University

And the “bird” had already slipped out of its wings, and a very unusual creature stood in front of us. It looked like a half-bird, half-human, with a large beak and a triangular human face, very flexible, like a cheetah, body and predatory, wild movements ... She was very beautiful and, at the same time, very scary.
This is Miard. – introduced being Weya. - If you want, he will show you "living creatures", as you say.
The creature, named Miard, again began to appear fairy wings. And he waved them invitingly in our direction.
– And why exactly him? Are you very busy, "star" Weya?
Stella had a very unhappy face, because she was clearly afraid of this strange "beautiful monster", but apparently she did not have the courage to admit it. I think she would rather go with him than be able to admit that she was simply scared ... Veya, clearly reading Stella's thoughts, immediately reassured:
He is very affectionate and kind, you will like him. After all, you wanted to see the living, and it is he who knows this best of all.
Miard cautiously approached, as if sensing that Stella was afraid of him... And this time, for some reason, I was not at all afraid, rather the opposite - he interested me wildly.
He came close to Stella, who at that moment was already almost squealing inside with horror, and gently touched her cheek with his soft, fluffy wing ... A purple mist swirled over Stella's red head.
- Oh, look - I have the same as Weya! .. - the surprised little girl exclaimed enthusiastically. – But how did it happen?.. Oh-oh, how beautiful!.. – this already referred to a new area with absolutely incredible animals that appeared before our eyes.
We stood on the hilly bank of a broad, mirror-like river, the water of which was strangely "frozen" and seemed to be easy to walk on - it did not move at all. Above the river surface, like a gentle transparent smoke, a sparkling mist swirled.
As I finally guessed, this “fog, which we saw everywhere here, somehow enhanced any actions of the creatures living here: it opened the brightness of vision for them, served as a reliable means of teleportation, in general, helped in everything, no matter what at that moment these beings were not engaged. And I think it was used for something else, much, much more, which we still could not understand ...
The river meandered in a beautiful wide “snake” and, smoothly leaving into the distance, disappeared somewhere between the lush green hills. And amazing animals walked, lay and flew along both its banks... It was so beautiful that we literally froze, amazed by this amazing sight...
The animals were very similar to unprecedented royal dragons, very bright and proud, as if they knew how beautiful they were ... Their long, curved necks sparkled with orange gold, and spiked crowns shone on their heads with red teeth. The royal animals moved slowly and majestically, with each movement shining with their scaly, mother-of-pearl-blue bodies, which literally burst into flames, falling under the golden-blue sunbeams.
- Beauty-and-and-sche!!! Stella breathed out in delight. - Are they very dangerous?
“The dangerous ones don’t live here, we haven’t had them for a long time. I don’t remember how long ago... – came the answer, and only then we noticed that Veya was not with us, but Miard was addressing us...
Stella looked around fearfully, apparently not feeling too comfortable with our new acquaintance...
“So you don’t have any danger at all?” I was surprised.
“Only external,” came the reply. - If they attack.
– Does this happen too?
“The last time it was before me,” Miard answered seriously.
His voice sounded soft and deep in our brains, like velvet, and it was very unusual to think that such a strange half-human being communicates with us in our own “language” ... But we are probably already too used to various, transcendent miracles, because after a minute they freely communicated with him, completely forgetting that this is not a person.
- And what - you never have any, no trouble ?!. The little girl shook her head in disbelief. “But then it’s not at all interesting for you to live here! ..
It spoke the real, unquenchable Earthly "thirst for adventure." And I understood it perfectly. But for Miard, I think it would be very difficult to explain this...
- Why is it not interesting? - our "guide" was surprised, and suddenly, interrupting himself, he pointed up. – Look – Savii!!!
We looked up and were dumbfounded.... Fairy-tale creatures soared smoothly in the light pink sky!.. They were completely transparent and, like everything else on this planet, incredibly colorful. It seemed that wonderful, sparkling flowers were flying across the sky, only they were incredibly large ... And each of them had a different, fantastically beautiful, unearthly face.
“Oh-oh.... Look-and-those... Oh, what a marvel...” Stella, completely stunned, said in a whisper for some reason.
I don't think I've ever seen her so shocked. But there really was something to be surprised... In no, even the most violent fantasy, it was impossible to imagine such creatures!.. They were so airy that it seemed that their bodies were woven from a shining mist... , spraying sparkling golden dust behind him ... Miard “whistled” something strange, and the fabulous creatures suddenly began to smoothly descend, forming a huge “umbrella” above us, flashing with all the colors of their crazy rainbow ... It was so beautiful that was breathtaking!
Mother-of-pearl-blue, pink-winged Savia was the first to “land” to us, which, having folded its sparkling wings-petals into a “bouquet”, began to look at us with great curiosity, but without any fear ... It was impossible to calmly look at her bizarre beauty, which attracted like a magnet and wanted to admire it endlessly ...
– Do not look for a long time – the Savii are fascinating. You won't want to leave here. Their beauty is dangerous if you don't want to lose yourself,” Miard said quietly.
“But how did you say that there is nothing dangerous here?” So it's not true? Stella was immediately indignant.
“But this is not the kind of danger that needs to be feared or that needs to be fought. I thought that's what you meant when you asked, - Miard was upset.
- Come on! We seem to have different ideas about many things. It's normal, isn't it? - "nobly" reassured his baby. - Can I talk to them?
- Speak if you can hear. - Miard turned to the miracle Savia, who had come down to us, and showed something.
The marvelous creature smiled and came closer to us, while the rest of his (or her? ..) friends still soared easily right above us, sparkling and shimmering in the bright sunlight.
“I am Lilis…fox…is…” an amazing voice whispered. It was very soft, and at the same time very resonant (if such opposite concepts can be combined into one).
Hello beautiful Lilis. Stella greeted the creature joyfully. - I'm Stella. And here she is - Svetlana. We are people. And you, we know, Savia. Where did you fly from? And what is Savya? - questions again rained down like hail, but I didn’t even try to stop her, since it was completely useless ... Stella just “wanted to know everything!”. And it always has remained so.
Lilis came very close to her and began to examine Stella with her bizarre, huge eyes. They were bright crimson, with golden flecks inside, and sparkled like gems. The face of this miracle creature looked surprisingly delicate and fragile, and had the shape of a petal of our earth lily. She “spoke” without opening her mouth, at the same time smiling at us with her small, round lips... But, probably, the most amazing thing was their hair... They were very long, almost reaching the edge of the transparent wing, absolutely weightless and , having no constant color, flashed all the time with the most different and most unexpected brilliant rainbows ... transparent bodies Savy were sexless (like the body of a small earthly child), and from the back they passed into "petals-wings", which really made them look like huge bright flowers...
“We flew in from the mountains-or ...” the strange echo sounded again.
"Could you tell us sooner?" asked Miarda impatient Stella. - Who are they?
- They were brought from another world once. Their world was dying, and we wanted to save them. At first they thought that they could live with everyone, but they could not. They live very high in the mountains, no one can get there. But if you look into their eyes for a long time, they will take it with them... And you will live with them.
Stella shivered and slightly moved away from Lilis, who was standing next to her... - And what do they do when they take you away?
- Nothing. They just live with those who are taken away. Probably they had a different world in the world, but now they do it just out of habit. But for us they are very valuable - they "clean" the planet. Nobody ever got sick after they came.

An excerpt characterizing the Odessa State Agrarian University

“Dear brothers,” he began, blushing and stammering, and holding a written speech in his hand. – It is not enough to observe our sacraments in the quiet of the lodge – you need to act… act. We are in stupor, and we need to act. Pierre took his notebook and began to read.
“In order to spread pure truth and deliver the triumph of virtue,” he read, we must cleanse people of prejudices, spread rules consistent with the spirit of the times, take upon ourselves the education of youth, unite with inseparable bonds with smartest people, boldly and together prudently overcome superstition, unbelief and stupidity, to form people who are devoted to us, bound together by a unity of purpose and having power and strength.
“To achieve this goal, virtue must be given a preponderance over vice, one must strive so that an honest person gains an eternal reward for his virtues in this world. But in these great intentions we are hindered by quite a lot - the current political institutions. What to do in such a state of affairs? Shall we favor revolutions, overthrow everything, expel force by force?... No, we are very far from that. Every violent reform is reprehensible, because it will do nothing to correct evil as long as people remain as they are, and because wisdom has no need for violence.
“The entire plan of the order should be based on educating people who are firm, virtuous and bound by the unity of conviction, a conviction consisting in pursuing vice and stupidity everywhere and with all your might and patronizing talents and virtue: to extract worthy people from the dust, joining them to our brotherhood. Then only our order will have the power to insensitively bind the hands of the patrons of disorder and control them so that they do not notice it. In a word, it is necessary to establish a universal dominating form of government, which would extend over the whole world without destroying civil bonds, and under which all other governments could continue in their usual order and do everything except that only that hinders the great goal of our order, then is the delivery of virtue triumph over vice. Christianity itself presupposed this goal. It taught people to be wise and kind, and for their own benefit to follow the example and instructions of the best and wisest people.
“Then, when everything was immersed in darkness, of course, one sermon was enough: the news of the truth gave it special power, but now much stronger means are needed for us. Now it is necessary that a person, guided by his feelings, find sensual charms in virtue. It is impossible to eradicate passions; we must only try to direct them to a noble goal, and therefore it is necessary that everyone should be able to satisfy his passions within the limits of virtue, and that our order should provide means for this.
“As soon as we have a certain number of worthy people in each state, each of them again forms two others, and they all closely unite with each other - then everything will be possible for the order, which has already secretly managed to do a lot for the good of mankind.”
This speech made not only a strong impression, but also excitement in the box. The majority of the brothers, who saw in this speech the dangerous plans of the Illuminati, accepted his speech with coldness that surprised Pierre. The great master began to object to Pierre. Pierre began to develop his thoughts with great and great fervor. There hasn't been such a stormy meeting for a long time. Parties were formed: some accused Pierre, condemning him for the Illuminati; others supported him. For the first time at this meeting, Pierre was struck by the infinite diversity of human minds, which makes it so that no truth is equally presented to two people. Even those of the members who seemed to be on his side understood him in their own way, with restrictions, changes that he could not agree to, since Pierre's main need was precisely to convey his thought to another exactly as he himself understood her.
At the end of the meeting, the great master, with hostility and irony, made a remark to Bezukhoi about his ardor and that not only love for virtue, but also the enthusiasm for the struggle led him in the dispute. Pierre did not answer him and briefly asked if his proposal would be accepted. He was told that no, and Pierre, without waiting for the usual formalities, left the box and went home.

Pierre again found that longing that he was so afraid of. For three days after delivering his speech in the box, he lay at home on the sofa, receiving no one and not leaving anywhere.
At this time, he received a letter from his wife, who begged him for a date, wrote about her sadness for him and about her desire to devote her whole life to him.
At the end of the letter, she informed him that one of these days she would come to St. Petersburg from abroad.
Following the letter, one of the Masonic brothers, less respected by him, burst into Pierre’s solitude and, turning the conversation on Pierre’s marital relations, in the form of fraternal advice, expressed to him the idea that his strictness towards his wife was unfair, and that Pierre deviates from the first rules of the Mason. not forgiving the penitent.
At the same time, his mother-in-law, the wife of Prince Vasily, sent for him, begging him to visit her at least for a few minutes to negotiate a very important matter. Pierre saw that there was a conspiracy against him, that they wanted to unite him with his wife, and this was not even unpleasant for him in the state in which he was. He did not care: Pierre did not consider anything in life a matter of great importance, and under the influence of the anguish that now took possession of him, he did not value either his freedom or his persistence in punishing his wife.
"No one is right, no one is to blame, so she is not to blame either," he thought. - If Pierre did not immediately express his consent to union with his wife, it was only because in the state of anguish in which he was, he was not able to do anything. If his wife came to him, he would not drive her away now. Was it not all the same, in comparison with what occupied Pierre, to live or not to live with his wife?
Without answering anything to his wife or mother-in-law, Pierre once late in the evening got ready for the journey and left for Moscow to see Iosif Alekseevich. Here is what Pierre wrote in his diary.
Moscow, November 17th.
I have just arrived from a benefactor, and I hasten to write down everything that I experienced at the same time. Iosif Alekseevich lives in poverty and suffers for the third year from a painful bladder disease. No one ever heard from him a groan, or a word of grumbling. From morning until late at night, with the exception of the hours in which he eats the simplest food, he works on science. He received me graciously and sat me down on the bed on which he was lying; I made him the sign of the knights of the East and Jerusalem, he answered me the same, and with a meek smile asked me about what I had learned and acquired in the Prussian and Scottish lodges. I told him everything as well as I could, conveying the grounds that I offered in our St. Petersburg box and reported on the bad reception that had been given to me, and about the break that had occurred between me and the brothers. Iosif Alekseevich, after a considerable pause and thought, presented to me his view of all this, which instantly illuminated for me everything that had passed and the whole future path that lay before me. He surprised me by asking me if I remember what the threefold purpose of the order is: 1) to keep and know the sacrament; 2) in the purification and correction of oneself for the perception of it, and 3) in the correction of the human race through the desire for such purification. What is the main and first goal of these three? Certainly own correction and purification. Only towards this goal can we always strive, regardless of all circumstances. But at the same time, this is the goal that requires the most labor from us, and therefore, deluded by pride, we, missing this goal, either take on the sacrament that we are unworthy to receive because of our impurity, or take on the correction of the human race, when we ourselves are an example of abomination and depravity. Illuminism is not a pure doctrine precisely because it is carried away by social activities and is full of pride. On this basis, Iosif Alekseevich condemned my speech and all my activities. I agreed with him in the depths of my soul. On the occasion of our conversation about my family affairs, he said to me: - The main duty of a true Mason, as I told you, is to perfect himself. But often we think that by removing all the difficulties of our life from ourselves, we will more quickly achieve this goal; on the contrary, my lord, he told me, only in the midst of secular unrest can we achieve three main goals: 1) self-knowledge, for a person can know himself only through comparison, 2) improvement, only by struggle is it achieved, and 3) achieve the main virtue - love for death. Only the vicissitudes of life can show us the futility of it and can contribute to our innate love for death or rebirth into a new life. These words are all the more remarkable because Iosif Alekseevich, despite his severe physical suffering, is never burdened by life, but loves death, to which he, despite all the purity and loftiness of his inner man doesn't feel ready enough yet. Then the benefactor fully explained to me the meaning of the great square of the universe and pointed out that the triple and the seventh number are the foundation of everything. He advised me not to distance myself from communication with the St. Petersburg brothers and, occupying only positions of the 2nd degree in the lodge, to try, distracting the brothers from the hobbies of pride, to turn them to the true path of self-knowledge and improvement. In addition, for himself personally, he advised me first of all to take care of myself, and for this purpose he gave me a notebook, the same one in which I write and will continue to enter all my actions.
