Индивидуальная эсхатология в исихазме и современном «новом гуманизме»
Individual Eschatology in Hesychasm and Modern "New Humanism"

Summary/Abstract: The paper is dedicated to the confrontation of individual eschatology according to the LateByzantine hesychasm with the contemporary futurological views of transhumanism, posthumanism andother related theories, doctrines, hypothesis and conceptions, which are here mentioned under the commonname of “new humanisms”. The peculiarity of hesychastic theology is in its belief in a human being’scapability to perceive uncreated divine light (the Tabor Light) and divine energies in his earthly life throughtacit prayer and other “smartactivities”. Such perception means the start of a Christian’s transfigurationprocess for future eternal life. Hesyhasm is thoroughly humanistic and could be an alternative forcontemporary futurology, taking into account the acute crisis of modern secular and post-Christianhumanism and humanistic values.
