THE PROBLEM OF DEATH IN WORKS BY METROPOLITAN ANTHONY OF SOUROZH (BLOOM)

Abstract

The article is devoted to one of the most acute problems of human life ‒ the phenomenon of death. The author tries to research the problem of this phenomenon in works by Metropolitan Anthony of Sourozh, since the views on the death in his ideas are the result of his philosophical and theological searches and the long-term experience of everyday practice as a confessor. In the article there are two aspects of interpretation of death in Metropolitan Anthony’s ideas ‒ ontological and biological, which mean separation from God and transition to spiritual dimension of human existence, respectively. The death becomes the possibility to exit to transcendence and comprehend the fullness of existence.
