    How little lived, how much experienced ...

    Doesn't it seem to you, reader, that time has incredibly accelerated its run and is moving truly rapidly?.. For example, I have repeatedly met with readers who believe that the book "Three Whales of Health" existed almost always; there were also those who, without a shadow of a doubt, told me that they had been practicing according to the system set out in The Three Whales of Health for almost a decade and a half or two decades. Meanwhile, the first edition of this book was published in March 1991, only eight years ago! Yes, I understand that some count this edition from a small article that appeared in the magazine "Neva" in 1988 in the second issue, and gave rise to an avalanche-like, unimaginable flow of letters, reviews, phone calls, visits to the author - conditioned and unexpected, but only 11 years have passed since its publication.

    Oh, how much has changed over these years in the life of each of us, and of the entire state as a whole: this is not an impression, but a reality - between that recent date and these years; with all the consequences of a tectonic, volcanic explosion, a whole new era has opened up, and, perhaps, thanks to the historical cataclysms we were witnesses and, alas, accomplices of which we turned out to be, and there was a feeling of great temporal remoteness, a long, long distance from that, in general, very close date .

    I will say very briefly about the historical changes in our common destiny: each of us found himself in a situation where the state is not up to him, not up to his health. The rescue of drowning people has truly become the work of the drowning people themselves, and it should be said that they, with a considerable share of activity, took up this issue that was more than vital for saving life and health. And one of the curious and certainly useful consequences of this state of the social situation was the surprising, almost explosive filling of the book market with literature devoted to the preservation of healthy lifestyle life. I recall how, in the afterword to the 1st edition of The Three Whales of Health, I called on citizens to join forces in order to encourage book publishers to print works on this topic. There is a saying: “Your words are in the ears of God!” The needs of reality itself prompted the book market to respond briskly and businesslike to the needs of reality. I believe that nowhere, unfortunately, there is a complete bibliography of publications on this topic that have appeared in recent years, because central libraries do not receive regional publications, and even those that are published in major cities, also with the collapse of the all-Union system of book publishing, they do not receive as signal samples. I think, however, that the number of authors who entered the arena public life under the motto "Healthy lifestyle" can now number in the thousands and thousands of people. A remarkable fact: in August 1998, Emilia Wilensky, a doctor, one of the leaders of the center for the study of alternative medicine in Russia, came to me for an interview from the United States of America. According to her, in this center, after a serious analytical selection, the works of about two hundred Russian authors are subjected to study, worthy, according to American official physicians, to present in their work methods that are useful for improving human health. Frankly, I was very flattered to hear from a representative of official, albeit foreign, medicine that they have no doubts about the primacy of the book “Three Whales of Health” and other works published by Yu. Andreev, not only by the time of their appearance, preceding the landslide publication of books on the aforementioned topics in Russia. (Specialists will be curious to read the book by E. Wilensky "Alternative Medicine in Russia" published in Florida at the end of 1998, unfortunately, in English.)

    Well, demand naturally gave rise to supply, and in the flow of books in which we are now, new generations of readers (and publishers) have appeared who have not even heard of The Three Pillars of Health, who are sure, for example, that the era of books about a healthy lifestyle began with G. Malakhov; I have repeatedly noticed with a smile that a number of provisions and specific ways recovery was borrowed by some diligent authors and are presented either as their own discovery, or as an extract from ancient Chinese books, or from Tibetan monasteries (it was especially interesting to read about the method of cleaning joints with a bay leaf as an alleged secret secret, drawn by the author from the bowels of a Tibetan monastery ). In a word, they treat the contents of the Three Whales of Health as folklore or a text of mythological antiquity. Well, thank God! If only this text, and all others moving in line with the comprehensive recovery of a person, would work for the benefit of people.

    And yet, as soon as, despite the many reprints of the named work, both it and its author, to a certain extent, fell out of sight of new generations of readers, I must inform them that in the years that have elapsed since 1991, I am in the right place. didn't stand. Books such as Man and Woman were written, published and republished. The human path is the stellar path”, as “The Healing of Man”, as “The Secret of the Turtle”, as “Practical Medical Book” in 2 volumes (in three books), as “A day lasts longer than life. Our possibilities and superpowers in building our own health”, at the output of the book, which I consider a milestone for myself, “Resonance of the Earth and Sky. Theory and practice of meditation. Most importantly, all these books were a generalization of very serious developments that their author carried out and tested primarily on himself, playing the role of both a laboratory animal, a laboratory assistant, and the head of a laboratory.

    What, in a condensed form, are the results of the conducted (and ongoing) experiments? I say this only because the main and only criterion of truth for me is practice, practical results are. So, what are they, confirming the truth of the chosen path for the author and those readers (and listeners of his courses) who are ready to listen to his arguments and facts?

    First: for many years it has been possible to do without the help of doctors. Well, it still doesn't say much, because in our time already a sufficient number of normal trade union members have matured to the point that, thanks to a healthy lifestyle, "forget about the doctors."

    Second, the biological age of the author, judging by objective data and physiological measurements, is about two times less than the passport age. And according to a number of parameters (endurance, working capacity, speed of reaction, etc.) it is at the level of a student-postgraduate student in general. Such a structure of the organism is already something really significant, representing not only interest, but also direct proof of the correctness of the chosen path.

    Third: the Lord sees, I have never been especially concerned with my hairline, and I must say that over the past decade it has completely diminished on my head, but now I myself and many of those around me began to note with surprise the appearance of the very thing real hair on the long-lost author of The Three Whales of Health. Obviously, the condition of the hair follicles reflected the overall life potential of a person that has significantly increased over the years. I must say that in my field of vision there are not so many people with a similar direction in the course of life processes. The significantly improved homeostasis, the course of metabolic processes in the body, due to which, contrary to the common practice of weighting with age, on the contrary, my weight is 8-10 kilograms less than a graduate student should probably be attributed to the same point. And if then I acted as a light heavyweight wrestler, then now I would go to the carpet in the average, if not even in the welterweight.

    We decided to introduce you to a man who has achieved a lot - for himself and for us. Yuri Andreevich Andreev is well-known in our country and abroad solely due to his work, and not someone's "promotion".

    We have been familiar with his creative aspirations for a long time. And here is what is remarkable: after all, his little note “Three Whales of Health”, published in the Neva magazine in 1988 and causing a great long-term effect in the reading world, was written by the Editor-in-Chief of the famous, all-Union revered Big and Small series of the Poet’s Library, doctor of philological sciences (it is significant that in China at about the same time a dissertation was defended on his views as a literary theorist). This note about the principles of a healthy lifestyle belonged to the author of the story translated into many languages ​​"The barmaid from the disco", according to which G. Tovstonogov staged a play at the Bolshoi Theater with the brilliant A. Freindlich in the title role (the same story was staged in Los Angeles, Varna, Voronezh).

    This note, still remembered by many, belonged to a man who, in September 1986, representatives of 140 cities from all republics Soviet Union was elected Chairman of the All-Union Council of Author's Song Clubs at the first legal congress in Saratov.

    In those same years, the guardianship work entrusted to him by the secretariat of the Leningrad Writers' Organization to lead the "Club-81" - unrecognized geniuses - was in full swing. The collection of works by the members of this club, Krug, which saw the light under his editorship, gave rise to literally star rain of reviews - at least 35 in different countries. And in each of them it was noted that his release was both an unprecedented phenomenon and a landmark for understanding the literary situation in our state.

    In the same years, in his translation from Ukrainian, the soul-searing documentary story by V. Boyko "And if there is hell on Earth ..." was published. In order to authentically recreate the atmosphere of that book, Y. Andreev went to Auschwitz, where the Poles kept the death camp. In those same years, he carried out instructions from the secretariat of the Union of Writers of the USSR in Korea, in Cuba, worked in Siberia, became a laureate of the Literaturnaya Gazeta as a constant "ringleader" of heated discussions. In the same years, almost in all republics, his publicist book “Frank Conversation, or Conversations with a high school student at the limit and even beyond the limits of possible frankness” was translated. Isn't it true that his positive actions in a short period of time would have been enough for some others for several biographies?

    But after all, such a lifestyle was inherent in him from a young age: while studying at the Faculty of Philology of Leningrad State University, this round five student simultaneously worked as a sambo wrestling coach at the department of physical education of his own university (and even as a senior coach - already a graduate student of the Pushkin House of the USSR Academy of Sciences), graduated from a coaching school at the Institute. Lesgaft and was an active fighter.

    His romantic novel "Republic of Sambo" and academic research on the Russian Soviet historical novel were published almost simultaneously.

    His doctoral thesis "Revolution and Literature" is about the coverage of the grandiose events of 1917-1921. writers standing on opposite sides of the political barricades, required twelve years of preliminary, intense, almost hard labor to determine, first of all, the bibliographic composition of the works to be studied. The funds of the largest domestic libraries, as well as the repositories of Yugoslavia, Finland, Germany and Czechoslovakia, were examined, because there, on the outskirts of Russia, literature created by émigré writers settled. The list consisted of more than 2500 authors, books of about 500 people were selected according to their artistic merit. Let's agree, this is somewhat more than 5-10 figures that constantly flashed in various teaching aids, and the picture of literary life turned out to be much more vivid and dramatic than it was commonly believed. What is important to note: the monograph "Revolution and Literature" was published almost two decades before perestroika with its freedom of information began. And what else is important to emphasize: at the same time, the most intense work was going on on the historical-revolutionary novel The Crimson Chronicle (in collaboration with G. Voronov). Both of these books have been reprinted several times.

    Whatever period of Yuri Andreev's life is touched upon, even the very last one, the situation is still the same. So, for example, the American naturopathic doctor Emilia Wilensky in 1998, based on an analysis of his works, called him “Russia’s number one healer”, and the phenomenal Novosibirsk healer Irina Vasilyeva, visiting the miraculous building he was building in Repin, spoke aphoristically: “Everything they are building concepts, and Yuri Andreev is building the Temple of Health.” And in the same years, books were created: the two-volume "Practical Medical Book", "Resonance of the Earth and Sky. Theory and Practice of Meditation”, “Health Diary for the 21st Century”, the current “What does a person need?”. In the same years, coursework was actively conducted in St. Petersburg, in various cities of Russia and in Stockholm, and important foreign trips were made.
    This tense and productive rhythm of Yu. Andreev's universal performance is impressive. The list of his published works includes more than 500 titles, including more than 30 books. But no less impressive is the inseparable connection between theory and practice in his life. So, for example, the result of his expedition through cities and villages, forests and rivers Vologda region on the topic "What are they reading?" in the 70s, a memorandum appeared to the Committee on Press Affairs under the Council of Ministers of the USSR, and with it his four-hour report to the board, correcting the partly snobbish position of the leadership (in particular, the green light was given to the publication of novels by A. Dumas).

    The practical result of his doctoral dissertation was also a detailed memorandum, this time to the Secretariat of the Central Committee of the CPSU with a motivated explanation why the works of 34 Russian émigré writers and those who were repressed should definitely be published. Soon a closed decision appeared on the release of books of 33 of them, and in various publishing houses all of them were soon printed. (By the way, Yuri Andreevich himself received from the publishing house " Fiction"a proposal to prepare a selection of A. Remizov, the magician of the Russian word, who has not been published with us since 1920. He agreed to this proposal, the implementation of which took a year of hard work, since the only place in Russia where almost all 90 books of A. Remizov were collected was the manuscript department of the Pushkin House, in the theoretical research sector of which he worked then. Academician D.S. Likhachev, in his speech at the VIII Congress of the Union of Writers of the USSR, especially noted the publication of this work.)

    And the 34th author, Nikolai Gumilyov, before whom the permissive light of a political semaphore was not lit at that time, was published by Yu. Andreev without permission from above, being already the Chief Editor of the Poet's Library and having received support for this impudent action from the Board of the Union of Writers of the USSR, a member of which was.

    Yes, the connection between theory and practice in his life is a constant value. In January 1965, the first in the history of the author's amateur song, his long article "What are they singing?" was published; in the autumn of the same year, subscription concerts of bards began in the large hall of the DC of food industry workers, in the youth club "Vostok", the chairman of the artistic council and the host of whose concerts he was for many years; further - seminars in the Borzovka tent camp on the shores of the Sea of ​​\u200b\u200bAzov, development of a platform, training of personnel, organizational work together with an ever-increasing circle of associates - and now the grandiose, already officially recognized I congress of amateur song clubs in 1986. In total, almost a quarter of a century of work, where it is impossible to separate theory from practice ...

    No, his life was not a parade march to the solemn fanfare: yes, the collection "Circle" saw the light, despite the fierce resistance of the Leningrad authorities, but in retaliation, Yu. Andreev was just as furiously deleted by them from the presentation for the title "Honored Worker of Culture of the RSFSR" .

    Yes, he published a lot, but 12 of his major works were banned before publication, the monograph "Revolution and Literature" made its way to readers with incredible difficulty, and a doctoral dissertation based on it was shamefully overwhelmed in Leningrad (but triumphantly defended in Moscow).

    His the big Book Our Life, Our Literature was confiscated and destroyed after publication. The director of the Pushkin House, V. G. Bazanov, somewhat dumbfounded, commented on this situation (Yu. Andreev then worked as deputy director for science, that is, he was his right hand): “That's how good they began to live! Previously, they would have written “Destroy the author, funeral at the expense of relatives”, but now “Destroy the book, losses at the expense of the publishing house”. Progress!..” This mournful story, alas, can go on and on (what is worth even a masterfully constructed attempt to expel him from the party by all-powerful haters, impotent from science! People of the older generation can appreciate this “plot” at its true worth!), but gets up the question is, what allowed and allows Yu. Andreev not to lose his fortitude, but, on the contrary, to constantly increase his efforts? Perhaps what helps him to remain a worker is that he also constantly deals with his health in the harmony of theory and practice.

    Blinded from starvation during the war years, a 12-year-old boy, nevertheless, at the age of 15, he already participated in the match of hero cities in shooting from the Leningrad team, and there were, perhaps, no such sports in which he would then not take high places and would not receive champion titles: artistic gymnastics, skiing, sambo, cycling, slalom kayaking (descent from waterfalls), long jump, shot put, middle and long distance running. In his mature years, he started the custom of running as many kilometers on his birthday as he was years old.

    But, perhaps, even that made it possible to stay afloat and not go down like a stone when meeting obstacles, that the energy initially put into it required more and more new applications?

    Unfortunately, we cannot acquaint readers with his inventions: with the amazing Temple of Health, built according to his project; with previously unprecedented devices called “turtle”, which give the healed person inner heroic strength; with his "amulets", which - according to the conclusion medical commission- increase the protective functions of the blood, etc., etc., but we want to give you at least a glimpse of how a Russian person can and should be in his desire to reveal his inner potential - for the benefit of himself, his neighbor , their country, humanity.
