Rejuvenating apples;boiling vats, plunging into which you can become a handsome young man (it is possible, however, and cook to death);cherished bottle of dead and living water that can revive a fallen hero ... This is our Russian fairy tales.But in the epic and folklore of any country reflects the efforts of people to achieve immortality.Much has come down to us from time immemorial, it is not like a fairy tale, and has all the signs of historical chronicles.
Thus, documented evidence, when, at different times, in different places of the Earth, spontaneously or thanks to a special secret techniques, Chinese Taoist monks or Indian hermits lived on more than a hundred years to four or more.Our elderly fellow countryman who applied at the beginning of XX century in the Tomsk hospital, presented quite authentic documents, of which, as of his stories, it followed that it more than two hundred years.
maximum, which did not dare to transcend even the fairy tale - this is the age of 5000 years!He testified Tapasvidzhi survivor of Indian origin, he has lived more than 180 years.At the foot of the Himalayas, he once met a hermit who speaks only in the ancient Indian Sanskrit.To achieve such a long and healthy stay in our world, the elder helped harsh diet and knowledge of the composition of the drug, which he kept secret.
legendary Count of Cagliostro was quite specific person.And in the second half of the XVIII century, together with his wife even visited Petersburg.After newspapers and word of mouth, which is always running ahead of artistic adventurer, or great adept, secular public got an indirect confirmation of the fact that the mighty Earl owns unless the secret of eternal life, a very long youth.The wife of Earl, the beauty Lorentz adult son's mother-captain, was so JNA for its forty-plus years that he did not deny the merits of the husband.Known not only the date of birth (1743), but the date of death of the mysterious Count Cagliostro - 1795.He possessed a mystic power and fascinating mystery of all, he is the favorite of Louis XVI, who ordered disrespect to Cagliostro was equal to the insult of the royal family, ended his life as a martyr in the dungeons of the Inquisition.
According to the rules of that time strange graph paper were burned as an unclean thing.But something that the Vatican is still preserved.For example, the record (copy) the "regeneration of Cagliostro."However, it describes the process (convulsions, sleep, loss of hair and teeth, new growth, and so on.), Which lasts for forty days, but no prescription pills, which give this effect.Preserved also recorded the story of the Inquisition Alexander Cagliostro that he visited Count St. Germain (the one whose fame was akin to the glory of Cagliostro) and saw the vessel in which the owner kept his mysterious elixir of immortality.
Cagliostro, who owns the secret of regeneration did not take advantage of the opportunity.This leads some to believe that he was bluffing because he was fabulously rich, and certainly could not bribe the guards, so they gave him the cherished pills.But what he needed another "portion" of life and youth?To continue to rot in the gloomy and stinking prison cell on the chain?It is likely he owns the secret of prolonging life, deliberately chose death in the fifties.As deliverance.
A legend of the Wandering Jew?Remember, a man named Ahasuerus was among others on the path of Christ to Calvary.Faint under the weight of the cross convicted wanted to get some rest at the house of Ahasuerus, but he rudely chased Christ.Ahasuerus And Christ said that he would go all my life, wandering, not knowing death.And so it happened.A thousand-odd years later, he saw people whose testimony credible.So, in the XIII century Ahasuerus was in Armenia and spoke with the Armenian archbishop.Later, he was seen talking to him in all the languages of the Earth the other bishops, the papal legate, historians and mayors.At the end of the XVI century, the Wandering Jew is going to Moscow and soon visits her.
century later professors of prestigious British universities of Cambridge and Oxford even tested, proekzamenoval Ahasuerus, but could not catch in ignorance of history, customs, culture and geography of ancient Earth, which for years of wandering, he walked all.In the first third of the XIX century, some British had a case to make sure that Ahasuerus is still wandering in the world which has become foreign to him.
Still, the main question that the first thing is to find the answer of humanity - is why live.Then, once it becomes clear why we do not live a thousand years, it is worth trying, and for what.
