Discussions about how we can arrange Russia are periodically renewed. New speakers and original projects appear in the information field. The exacerbation can be caused by both foreign policy factors and the activities of power structures within the country. Among the colorful personalities, Konstantin Yuryevich Dushenov, a publicist and public figure, stands out against the general background.
Service in the navy
People, even those who are far from religious activity, know the idea that no one can predict the ways of the Lord. This thesis can be fully applied to the biography of Konstantin Yuryevich Dushenov, a person who is whole and unshakable in his convictions. Based on the events that took place in his life, you can write a solid series of adventure and detective novels. According to personal data, Dushenov was born on February 2, 1960 in the family of a naval officer.
From an early age, Konstantin knew how sailors live on ships, what they do and what tasks they perform. It is important to note that the child was the grandson of the first commander of the Northern Fleet. In other words, the elders introduced the boy to the maritime traditions by their own example. Since his parents at that time lived in Leningrad, Kostya had every opportunity to get acquainted in detail with the history of his native country and city. Dushen studied well at school. He went in for sports and social work.
After school, in 1977, in order to receive a military education, Konstantin entered the Higher Naval School of Submariners. At that time, submarine service was considered difficult, but honorable. The young lieutenant successfully mastered the wisdom of the military profession. After a short period of time, he was appointed commander of a warhead on the famous nuclear submarine. In 1983, Lieutenant-Commander Dushenov was awarded a medal "For Military Merit" for completing a particularly important mission.
Betrayal or delusion
In 1987, a brilliant naval officer suddenly changes the vector of his fate. It is said somewhat pompously, but true. Konstantin Dushenov was baptized in an Orthodox church. Naturally, with this action, he put an end to the future career of a sailor. He was clearly and quickly, in a naval manner, expelled from the party and expelled from service. What was the reason for turning to God, Constantine himself prefers not to explain. True love for the Creator does not appear from scratch.
In the first time after demobilization Dushenov taught a course of his own composition "Religious aspects of Russian culture" in various educational institutions. Then he wrote and published materials in the newspaper "Orthodox Rus". An active and assertive person, Konstantin Yuryevich quickly found his niche in the political field. He organized and headed the Union of the Christian-patriotic direction. The next step was participation in the elections. But it was not possible to get into the State Duma.
For the extremist materials that Dushenov published in his newspaper, he was brought to trial. They attracted and awarded a real term. The public figure spent almost two years in a penal colony. Konstantin Dushenov prefers not to talk about his personal life. He once had a wife, but the marriage has not survived. The husband went sailing, the wife remained on the shore forever.
