Ivanovism

Ivanovism (Russian: Ивановизм), also known by the name of the followers, the Ivanovites (Ивановцы), is a religious movement in Russia based on the teachings of the mystic Porfiry Ivanov and his "natural healing system".[1] The movement is classified as syncretic.[2] Central to the movement is the Detka (Детка) healing system[3] and a "Hymn to Life" (Гимн жизни) focused on religious ideas.[4]

The Ivanovite movement is categorised among Russian new religious movements[5][6][7][8] as Neopagan[9][10][11] with neo-Christian elements.[12]
