Vladimir Anatolyevich Bakanov (July 31, 1952 — September 8, 2016) was a philosopher, founder and permanent head of the H. P. Blavatsky Russian Esoteric School of Theosophy in Kemerovo, a member of the Theosophical Society, who devoted his entire conscious life to the study and dissemination of theosophical knowledge, having collected and studied a large volume of literature on the works of Helena Blavatsky, the Roerich family, as well as Eastern philosophical doctrines.
Vladimir Anatolyevich was born in Kemerovo, Russia. After graduating from school No. 11, he entered the Kemerovo State Medical Institute (Faculty of Preventive Medicine), from which he graduated in 1976. V. A. Bakanov was noted as an “Excellent Student of Public Education” and awarded the regional medal “For Faith and Goodness.” As a mountaineering instructor, Vladimir Anatolyevich made more than 130 ascents to the mountain peaks of Russia, of which 14 ascents belong to the 4th and 5th difficulty categories, in addition, he participated in the All-Union Mountaineering and rescue work on Elbrus. In 1994 Bakanov climbed Mount Belukha in the Altai Mountains. Professionally engaged in pedagogical activity at the climbers' club “Voskhoditel” in Kemerovo, the organizer and head of which he was from 1979 to 2016, he led 787 people to the peaks of the mountains as an instructor.
In 1988–1989, Vladimir Anatolyevich got acquainted with the books of Living Ethics and “The Secret Doctrine” by H. P. Blavatsky. From that time until his departure from the physical plane, he was the most devoted follower of the ideas given by Mahatma M. through Helena Ivanovna Roerich and Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, whom he considered his Teacher.
In 1991 Bakanov founded a School for the Study of Theosophy, calling it the H. P. Blavatsky Russian Esoteric School of Theosophy. He was a real Teacher. Possessing mystical Consciousness, he, one of the few, through deep intellectual analysis and mystical insight, was able to most fully realize the true essence of “The Secret Doctrine,” the main work of H. P. Blavatsky, which allowed him to develop not only a large number of theoretical works on Theosophy, but also the Kalachakra calendar, reflecting in the unity of karmic and space-time laws.
Since 1992, Vladimir Anatolyevich has been participating in theosophical events in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Nizhny Novgorod, Dnepropetrovsk, and giving theosophical lectures in various cities of Russia. At the same time, the Russian Esoteric School begins to hold regular classes — 1–2 times a week annual seminars on in-depth study of the Stanzas of “The Secret Doctrine.” The students of the School at different times were representatives of Kemerovo, Moscow, St. Petersburg, Nizhny Novgorod, Novosibirsk, Krasnoyarsk, Yurga, Omsk and other cities of Russia. More than 100 people who have passed through the School have become members of the Theosophical Society. The school annually published the journal “Vestnik,” where articles were published under the editorship of Vladimir Anatolyevich, which later formed the basis of the first book “Eternity, the Time of the Gods.”
The integral, logically linked system that reveals the foundations of Being, which was developed by V. A. Bakanov, allowed students to understand the essence of “The Secret Doctrine” more deeply, as well as Theosophy in general. The list of topics of the material studied at School alone impresses with its depth and breadth of coverage, and testifies to Vladimir Anatolyevich's serious attitude to the important task that he took on himself.
