Glimpses of the History of Bulgaria

Then three schools were set up and soon hundreds of enlightened Bulgarians came out if them. Having the ruler Boris I behind his back Clement built a monastery in Ohrid, Macedonia, improved the Glagolitic alphabet and named it after his teacher Cyril – Cyrillic alphabet. For those merits Clement of Ohrid received high recognition and even today the University of Sofia bears his name. The other disciple of Cyril, Naum, led the second centre of enlightenment in the capital Pliska which was focused mainly on literary activities. There were laid the foundations of a literature which could be compared to the Byzantine and in that initiative took part the son of Boris I, Simeon, to whom Fate had allotted a great future…

Relics from Veliki (Great) r re Slav, the second capital city oj the Kingdom established by Boris l in 893.

After the death of Naum in 910 both disciples were canonized as Bulgarian saints . These men had a substantial contribution to the spiritual, cultural and intellectual development of the First Bulgarian Kingdom, to the raising of Bulgaria as a spiritual leader of the Slav community and to the cultural advance of Medieval Europe as a whole. Under the influence of Christianity and the Slavic script by the end of the 9th century the Bulgarian nation was ultimately formed and the Bulgarian state was consolidated.

The “Golden Age” of King Simeon the Great

After Prince Boris I retired on his own will to a monastery in 889 his first-born son Vladimir sat on the throne. Soon it came clear that the new ruler had a different vision for the religious and cultural future of the country: he wanted to restore paganism and did not hesitate to reaccept his pagan name Rassate. At hearing about this Boris left the monastery, dethroned his son and blinded him, then handed the crown to his second son, Simeon (893-917). Meanwhile, in 893 he shifted the capital city from Pliska some forty kilometres to the south-west and established Veliki (Great) Preslav which remained as a capital city until 972.

10 Years Anniversary

PART 2

Bulgaria

It occurred to me how little is known or shared about my “other” WOT activities outside of this blog. And this is understandable as I shared only tiny glimpses here.

There is a place on Earth, a certain community where I am literally inescapable for the last 14 years. And it is not Tumblr.

I am very active member in the Bulgarian WOT or КНВ community. And no, these are not “h”or “b”. :D Bloody Cyrillic alphabet! (The abbreviation is read “KNV”). The books were translated back in 1999 long before any other publication house on the Balkans. So Bulgaria has long history of its own community which I started participating in more eagerly around 2010. (Before that I was strictly on English-centered communities.)

What LightOne has done personally since 2010 to present time for Bulgarian audience?

Oh, not much and nothing special.

Just being one of the translators and the only editor of The World of Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time on Bulgarian language.

I created a project called “What is missing in the translation?” where I compared the differences between the original and Bulgarian texts for all the 15 books. As you can imagine it was a lot of work.

I did my own translation for four of the missing scenes from Lord of Chaos.

I translated Perrin's short story, I did partial translation of the Companion (around 100 pages) for the unknown information, translated several interviews by Brandon Sanderson, I wrote several articles on various WoT topics (like the Vileness for example), I translated several posts written by highladyluck on the topic of Mat and Tuon and combined them into one coherent article (someone may poke her about it, I won't).

I have been published in the most notable and acclaimed Bulgarian online magazine for SF & fantasy – Shadowdance with 4 articles explaining and sorting through Robert Jordan's notes. Also there I published an article talking about the preproduction of the 1st season of the TV series months before the reveal of its casting. I am taking pride that I am the first who predicted and introduced the idea for Two Rivers POC for first time to the Bulgarian audience who had no idea what was gonna hit the fan. It is funny how my editor tried to warn me that I am too frivolous with my predictions. At the end it turned out that I was not only correct but a bit conservative on the final result. I still cherish those golden moments before the premiere when I explain to someone about the existence of Two Rivers POC headcanon and then their jaw drops with worried expression that some crazy lunatic escaped the asylum.

I run YouTube channel where with friend of mine discuss the TV series for Bulgarian audience and I have some other videos about the books.

I organized several real life events in several Bulgarian cities through the years where WOT fans gather, drink beer and chat about WOT. There is still nothing that can beat that experience. Cheers!

And what else…. Oh, yeah, I am administrator of the two active WOT communities on Facebook. As much as I am aware the only two Internet places oriented only for WOT in Bulgaria. Admin on both of them.

Have I mentioned that I am unescapable?

There are more projects to list but I think this would be enough information for getting the point.

And by running this blog for 10 years straight at the same time I also happen to “carry” the Bulgarian community on my shoulders. Easy job.

I emphasize the word “happen” as I did not anticipate or prepare for any of this stuff. It just happened to be done by me. I did not beg anyone for anything.

In the next parts I will focus more on my work done with this blog.

Let the Light keep you safe.

Baba Vanga's Future Predictions: From 2025 Conflicts to Complete Muslim Rule by 2043. Throughout history, individuals have claimed to possess the ability to foresee the future, offering glimpses into what lies ahead for humanity. Among these figures, Baba Vanga, a blind Bulgarian clairvoyant, stands out for her numerous predictions that have captured public attention. As her prophecies continue to spark interest and debate, many ponder the implications of her visions, particularly as we approach critical years that she has predicted for potential upheaval. Both Baba Vanga and Nostradamus have made alarming predictions for 2025, suggesting that Europe could face devastating conflict. Nostradamus, a 16th-century French astrologer, warned of "cruel wars" in Europe, possibly linked to the ongoing war in Ukraine, and hinted at an "ancient plague" posing a greater threat than enemies. Similarly, Baba Vanga cautioned that a new war would erupt in 2025, jeopardising Europe’s population and potentially leading to a global apocalypse. Reports suggest she explicitly mentioned that Russian President Vladimir Putin would emerge victorious, asserting that Russia would dominate the world. Vanga’s past predictions, including significant historical events like the 9/11 attacks, reportedly have an 85% success rate, raising concerns about the future stability of Europe amid ongoing geopolitical tensions. Who is Baba Vanga? Born in 1911, Baba Vanga, whose full name is Vangeliya Pandeva Gushterova, lost her sight at the age of 12 after being caught in a storm. Following this traumatic incident, she reportedly developed precognitive abilities that led her to fame for her prophecies. Vanga spent most of her life in Bulgaria, earning the title “Nostradamus of the Balkans.” Along with her predictions about global events, she also foretold her own death. In a 1990 interview, she predicted she would pass away on August 11, 1996, and indeed, she died on that exact date. Despite her death, her legacy of prophetic claims endures, with new interpretations of her predictions continuously emerging. Notable Predictions and Their Accuracy Baba Vanga is said to have predicted several significant occurrences, many of which have garnered attention for their perceived accuracy. Some of her most notable predictions include: World War II: Vanga reportedly foresaw the devastation and immense loss of life during this global conflict. Dissolution of the Soviet Union: She predicted the collapse of the USSR long before it became a reality in 1991. Chernobyl Disaster: In 1986, she is said to have foreseen the nuclear catastrophe at Chernobyl. Stalin’s Death: Vanga accurately predicted the death of Soviet leader Joseph Stalin. Kursk Submarine Disaster: In 2000, she mentioned a tragedy involving "Kursk" before the Russian submarine sank. September 11 Attacks: Vanga reportedly predicted that "steel birds" would attack America, which many believe referred to the 9/11 attacks on the Twin Towers. 2004 Tsunami: She also foretold the devastating Indian Ocean tsunami that resulted in significant loss of life across multiple countries. 1985 Earthquake: She predicted an earthquake in Northern Bulgaria that occurred in 1985. These predictions raise concerns about impending crises and societal changes. Looking Ahead: Predictions for 2025 and Beyond Baba Vanga's future predictions paint a grim picture. She claims that the end of the world will begin in 2025, although she asserts that humanity will not be completely wiped out until 5079. In addition to the anticipated conflict in Europe, she forecasts that by 2043, Europe will fall under Muslim rule, and by 2076, communist rule will return globally. Vanga emphasises that the world will ultimately end in 5079 due to a natural event. One particularly intriguing prediction from Baba Vanga is the potential for alien encounters in 2025. She suggested that Earth would encounter extraterrestrial beings, leading to profound implications for humanity.

This prophecy has ignited discussions about the existence of aliens and the possible impact of such encounters on our understanding of the universe. Common Themes: Nostradamus and Baba Vanga Nostradamus and Baba Vanga share eerily similar predictions for 2025, including significant conflict in Europe. While Baba Vanga predicted extraterrestrial contact and a new energy source, Nostradamus warned of "cruel wars" and a devastating "ancient plague." Despite their different times and cultures, their visions align remarkably, highlighting common themes of upheaval and change. Scepticism and Continued Interest Despite many of Baba Vanga's predictions seemingly coming to fruition, scepticism persists. Critics argue that her predictions are often vague and open to interpretation, with clarity emerging only after events occur. Much of her supposed foresight is anecdotal and based on secondhand accounts, raising questions about the validity of her clairvoyance. Nevertheless, Baba Vanga's predictions resonate with a wide audience, igniting discussions about humanity's future and the potential consequences of current geopolitical conflicts. Her alarming predictions for 2025 remind us of the fragility of global peace and stability, prompting reflection on the ongoing challenges humanity faces—geopolitical tensions, environmental degradation, and social unrest. As the world grapples with uncertainty, Vanga's warnings challenge us to consider the importance of vigilance, diplomacy, and global cooperation. Only time will tell if her predictions will come to pass, but they undoubtedly fuel the imagination and provoke thought about the future we are shaping today. Baba Vanga Predictions List 2025 Global Conflict: Vanga predicted that a new war would break out in Europe, leading to significant turmoil and danger for the continent’s population. Victory of Russia: She forecasted that Russian President Vladimir Putin would emerge victorious in this conflict, with Russia asserting dominance on the global stage. Alien Encounters: Vanga claimed that by 2025, humanity would encounter extraterrestrial beings, marking a significant shift in human understanding of the universe. Environmental Catastrophes: She suggested that severe natural disasters would occur, further escalating global challenges and uncertainties. New Energy Source: Vanga hinted at the discovery of a new energy source that could revolutionise how humanity interacts with energy, potentially addressing ongoing environmental issues. Plague Threat: Echoing Nostradamus, she predicted that an "ancient plague" would emerge, posing a significant threat to human health and safety.   Baba Vanga's visions, whether believed or doubted, encourage us to work together for a better world.   Stay informed with Ejes Gist News – Your Source for Credible News in Nigeria
