There are two main sects titles - "Christ" and "whips", they are in tune with each of them in its own way expresses the essence of the teachings of Daniel: as soon as he could like that call himself Savoafom, others can compete with Jesus.One of the elements of worship is self-flagellation for the purpose of mortification.
Despite the fact that almost from the base Khlysty the people are persistent rumors about some erotic underpinnings night ceremony rites, svalny sin is not their compulsory aspect.The fact is that every community of this sect is an independent community called a ship, and one center at this confession not.Despite the fairly close attention from the authorities and law enforcement agencies as the Tsarist Russian Empire and the Soviet Union, no direct evidence of such a cheerful promiscuity has not been produced.
