‘Portrait of Peter Deunov’ painted in the 1930′s by Atanas Tasev. Peter Deunov (1864-1944) was a Bulgarian philosopher and teacher who drew on Orthodox Christianity to create beliefs his own which deviated from the Christianity he was trained in as a priest. Between 1900 and 1944 he spoke, had his words recorded and organised a community around what he believed in rural Bulgaria. There is a UK based community that follows on from where Deunov’s work stopped, here they are. On the other hand today he is ‘heretic of the day’ according The Catholic Herald, I am sure they will have a different heretic next week....
