Resonant Cedars: Cosmic Energy and New Beginnings

The religious organization “Resonant Cedars of Russia” is presented in the materials as part of the Anastasia movement, whose focus is on a special veneration of the cedar tree. In the movement’s teachings, the cedar is given great significance and is considered a “cosmic energy accumulator.” In particular, the following explanation is provided: “God created the cedar as an accumulator of the energies of the Cosmos. Megre calls these ‘miracle’ cedars resonant because ‘… cedars … accumulate, but do not return the accumulated energy. After five hundred years of their life, they begin to resonate. That is how they speak with their gentle ringing; that is how they signal for people to cut them down to harness the accumulated energy on Earth.’” This statement (source: link txt) reflects the central doctrine of the organization, according to which the cedar possesses unique energetic properties and its “resonating” sound serves as a signal for the correct interaction between humanity and nature.

In addition, the movement’s activities are characterized by attempts to create self-sufficient communities or eco-settlements, where the upbringing of people of a “new formation” is envisaged. These initiatives are part of a broader program aimed at forming a specific worldview in which ideas of ecological purity, positive thinking, and the rejection of principles that foster apocalyptic moods prevail. For example, the materials state that “Anastasia teaches: ‘Those predictors who believe and speak of catastrophe, of the end of the world, themselves produce thought-forms of the end of the world. Many teachings foretelling the universal end of humanity bring it closer with their thought-forms.’ Megre V. Resonant Cedars of Russia. It is likely that when Megre speaks of catastrophes, his ‘thought-forms’ do not bring any catastrophe closer” (source: link txt, page 156). This remark underscores that apocalyptic predictions are interpreted as the result of certain informational or mental practices, and that the organization aims to demonstrate an alternative scenario for the development of society based on the revival of natural and spiritual values.

It is also noted that already in 2003, at the “Ecology and the Revival of Spirituality” conference, representatives of various religions evaluated the Anastasia movement, which was facilitated by the mention of the “resonant cedars” in the corresponding almanac (source: link txt). This indicates that the organization has received a certain degree of recognition and attention from some religious confessions.

Thus, the activities of “Resonant Cedars of Russia” are characterized by the assertion of the cedar’s unique role as a cosmic accumulator—closely linked to the overall doctrine of the Anastasia movement. The organization strives to create communities that foster the upbringing of a new type of person, one who possesses ecological and spiritual balance and rejects apocalyptic predictions by nurturing positive thinking.
