  Khlysts - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Khlysty practised the attainment of divine grace through sin in ecstatic rituals (called радения, or radeniya) that sometimes seem to have turned into mass orgies.
Secret Khlysty cells existed throughout pre-revolutionary Russia (with approximately 40,000 followers); they were most common in the factories of the Perm district.
However, a few secluded Khlysty communities existed in Soviet Russia in Tambov, Kuibyshev, Orenburg and Northern Caucasus and in Soviet Ukraine.

 Khlysty
According to the precepts the founder of the Khlysty sect or brotherhood was Danila Filipich.
The greatest strength of the Khlysty sect was drawn from its mystery, and this was why its original leaders insisted that the members strictly obeyed the rules of the Orthodox Church.
Like the Khlysty sectarians who held their teachings came directly from God and were not known by the common Orthodox Russians, the Gnostics believed that Jesus shared secret teachings with them which He did not tell the ordinary members of the Christian faith.

 Russian Spiritual Christianity and Sectarianism in Russia
The Khlysty seek joy, blessedness upon the earth, they seek it within the body and they want to make with the body something, such that it not meddle with nor hinder the joy of the spirit.
Both with the Khlysty, and with the Dukhobors, there is a breaking off from the regular lifestyle and manner of religiosity, the forsaking of kin, and the repudiation of fleshly life.
In the Khlysty experience there is always the assumption of a Khlysty Christ and a Khlysty Mother of God, always connected with the concrete figures of people, situated on the edge, so that a split is possible on the opposing sides.

The dominant piece in the room, Khlysty, is a glittering girdle that runs the length of the room.
It hangs over the viewer, out of arm's reach, at times condensing as if it were about to dollop onto the floor, other times spreading out into a delicate lattice that reminds one of the constellations on the roof of Grand Central across the street.

 Pares. Rasputin and the Empress
He suddenly went off to the Verkhne-Turski Monastery near his home, where were several members of the Khlysty, a sect who mingled sexual orgies with religious raptures and who were emphatically condemned by the Orthodox Church.
On his return he became a strannik, or roving man of God, not a monk, not in orders, but one with a self-given commission from heaven, such as have often appeared in Russian history, especially at critical times.
That he habitually did much the same things as the Khlysty is conclusively proved; but that he was actually one of the sect has not been definitely established.

Having undergone a form of religious conversion while aged 18 Rasputin embraced the Khlysty sect.

There are a number of connections between Russia's religious dissenters (the Old Believers, the khlysty, the skoptsy, the beguny and other mystical sectarians) and the literary culture of the Symbolist period, as represented by the lives and writings of Dmitrii Merezhkovskii, Aleksandr Mikhailovich Dobroliubov, Andrei Belyi and Mikhail Kuzmin.
As a preface to this study I discuss the naming of Russia's pre- revolutionary religious sects and the culture's conception of the sects as groups.
The writers were particularly interested in the khlysty because their religious ecstasies and alleged sexual orgies suggested a connection with the Ancient Greek Dionysian religions, prized according to the Nietzschean ideals of the period.

The Khlysty were a group who believed in the separation of spirit (good) and flesh (evil) and acted in a manner similar to the Christian Flagellants.
In Sofia the Brothers are an offshoot of the Skoptzy and Khlysty heretical sects of the Catholic and Orthodox Russian churches (see notes).
The Brothers are recruited from military backgrounds and indoctrinated into a cult which venerates courage, fighting spirit, obedience, disdain for pains of the flesh and the belief in life after death.

Then, just as Christ cast off the husk of mortality to rise again in the spirit, the Khlysty, both men and women, cast all their garments from them during their wild dance.
Grigori Eflmovich Rasputin, the sensual but believing peasant of Pokrovskoe, learned in these Khlysty orgies to understand the real meaning of the peculiar mysteries of rebirth through sin.
The way to true submission and humility hence­forth for Rasputin must be followed through the “sinful en­counter,” through the casting away of the final barriers, through the deepest self-abasement in carnal sin.

 Cultism Revisited: A Corrective to Mr. Mosss Rejoinder
But it is wrong to include among these cults, as he does, Russian Old Believers or the Khlysty or Skoptsy sects.
On the one hand, not all Old Believers were cultists; only a small minority of them practiced such outrages as self-immolation; and the vast majority of moderate Old Believers have been reconciled to the Church in modern times, bringing with them a rich spiritual tradition.
The Khlysty and Skoptsy sects existed outside Orthodoxy and are no more part of Her domain than Rasputin, a married man with children, was a monk.
