The Prophecies of Otrok Vyacheslav, page 2

Sorry for the necro bump, but this subject is of great interest to me. The child seer had his ups and downs. Some of his predictions were merely repeating what he had heard from Orthodox elders, some of his claims are just plain religious superstition (Lenin's corpse tainting the earth's soil; Stalin burning in hell, quite possibly influenced by Dante's Inferno; blood transfusions carry the "sins" of the donor) and some were non-scientific (rejection of space travel, rejection of cremation), some can be ascribed to his overimaginativeness (dinosaurs appearing on the Volga, quite possibly influenced by Vladimir Obruchev's Plutonia). He also had a little conspiracy theorist in him (regarded the Freemasons as his enemy).

But some of his predictions are actually worth taking into consideration. He was undoubtedly a somnambulist, he was often in a cataleptic condition. old.reddit.com...

It's well-attested that he exhibited a sincere desire to help people (even on his deathbed) and that he was able to diagnose their ailments, trace the root causes of diseases. He claimed to have seen people's internal organs.

Thoughts and ideas he had never previously come across flowed into his mind. Here is such a contemporary case: grahamhancock.com...,1288434,1288434#msg-1288434

Anecdote: In Germany, Vyacheslav had a small accident and fell from a tree, hitting his head, but without any serious consequences. At the age of 4, Slavik received a concussion, and from that moment he began to prophesy.

Regarding birds, he made some strange claims: “The killing of birds is forbidden - the birds are involved in the creation of time - by killing birds we shorten time.” “Feed the pigeons; when pigeons bow down, people are saved from temporary hell.”

Allegedly, pigeons organized a circle of honor around Slavik during his funeral. For comparison: www.psychologytoday.com...

Slavik's Predictions:

In the first place, there is his fascinating scenario of Russians fed up with their own government, as a result of a man telling them what Gorby and Yeltsin did with Russia. He also claimed to have glimpsed a scenario of post-war Russia's collapse, the Kremlin being swallowed up by a sinkhole during a war, and an unprecedented famine. He predicted the Americans setting the Chinese on Russia at the last minute, a Chinese conquest of Russia & Siberia (not by military means but as merchants buying up property), and warned that they'd impose laws against practicing religion. He predicted Americans developing psychotropic weapons to employ against the Chinese. He predicted either 9/11 or another 9/11, along with the Statue of Liberty's destruction.

For paranormal researchers:

One evening, a local warlock came to our apartment with her relative to intimidate us. She spoke in different voices, screamed, was very angry, sweaty. She screamed that Slavik was bad, but she was a saint, that her book had told her that. She screamed that Slavik was not from God, because she herself was from God and she did not want to fight with him, since he was a child! She was perplexed: “Why was the child given such power?” She said that there was nothing to be done, and she, the “poor woman,” would have to fight him, because Slavik turned out to be her enemy. With great difficulty and only with the help of an Orthodox woman who came, we managed to see them out. (Valentina Krasheninnikov)

Historical Anecdote:

On the second day, a peasant's wife, uncalled for, came from the village, and, seating herself beside her, said—"She needs no physician—they cannot help her;" and laid her hand on her forehead. Immediately she was seized with the most direful spasms, and her forehead was as cold as if she were dead. During the whole night she cried deliriously that that woman had exercised a demoniacal influence upon her; and, whenever the woman returned, she was always attacked by spasms. (Justinus Kerner, Seeress of Prevorst, p.g. 41)

“Once we were drinking tea in the kitchen and talking. Suddenly, my temples were very strongly pierced by pain, it suddenly appeared and quickly disappeared. Noticing this, Slavochka explained: “Mommy, evil spirits constantly attack a person from above. The demonic energy in the form of black clots is constantly moving at high speed, trying to infiltrate a person, to break through him, and if they fail, then the person still experiences a sharp pain somewhere in his body, including the one you have now in the temples.” (Valentina Krasheninnikov)

Historical Anecdote:

On 9 November 1970, less than two weeks before his 80th birthday, Charles de Gaulle died suddenly, despite enjoying very robust health his entire life (except for a prostate operation a few years earlier). He had been watching the evening news on television and playing Solitaire around 7:40 p.m. when he suddenly pointed to his head and said, "I feel a pain right here", and then collapsed. His wife called the doctor and the local priest, but by the time they arrived he had died from an aneurysm.
