Daniil Andreev / 'Rose of the World' (1991)
playerOccult & Esoteric
A prisoner in Stalin's gulag wrote a sprawling mystical cosmology that now feeds Russian nationalist spirituality.
Who they are
Daniil Andreev, a Russian mystic and poet, son of writer Leonid Andreev.
What they do
He authored 'Rose of the World,' a mystical text laying out a vast multi-dimensional cosmology.
How it works
He was imprisoned in the Soviet gulag from 1947-1957 and composed the work during that time; it was completed in 1958 and published only in 1991 after his death, describing 240-plus planes of existence, angelic and demonic hierarchies, and end-times prophecy.
Why it matters
The engine treats it as a foundational text of today's Russian esoteric-nationalist worldview: weak on source-reliability but structurally significant because of its cult following and its revival among post-Soviet cultural elites, wired alongside other Russian mystical-channeling figures.
The engine's record — word for word
Russian mystic, poet, son of writer Leonid Andreev. Imprisonment 1947-1957 (Stalin gulag), composed primary corpus during imprisonment. 'Rose of the World' (Роза Мира, completed 1958, published 1991 posthumously). Multi-dimensional cosmology: 240+ planes, demonic + angelic hierarchies, eschatological prophecy. Engine relevance: foundational text of contemporary Russian esoteric-nationalist cosmology. Influences Roerich-tradition + post-Soviet Russian-Orthodox-mystical reactivation. Wires alongside existing engine nodes vladimir_megre_ringing_cedars + nikolai_levashov as Russian-channeling-lineage cluster. Tier-3 source-integrity; structural-significance Tier-2 (cult readership, post-Soviet cultural-elite reactivation).
