The individual religiosity of the Orthodox believer in concepts and semantic connotations
Keywords:
individual religiosity, authentic religiosity, “personal ontology”, Christian self-realization
Abstract
The article considers the phenomenon of individual religiosity of the Orthodox believer in the context of the ideal forms of its functioning. This becomes possible due to the discovery of certain theological constructs, which are modified in accordance with the requirements of time, modern realities. Achieving the level of authentic (constructive, normal) religiosity depends on the personal qualities of the Orthodox believer, realized as a result of assimilation of the axiological, ontological, epistemological, and behavioral standards of Orthodoxy. The latter ultimately affect the formation of the worldview, attitude, world outlook of the Orthodox believer, due to the mental specificity of religious archetypes of a certain traditional culture, acquire its certainty through actual relevant to today, semantic connotations
