The success or failure of a country is related to the life and death of the entire nation, then whether the country can rise or not only depends on the concerted efforts of the masses of the people, the most important thing is the leadership of the revolutionaries, as the saying goes, the old horse knows the way, even if the people under it are smart, they also need a leader to lead.
In the Soviet Union there was such a leader, who was called a great Marxist, proletarian revolutionary, politician, theoretician, thinker, and posterity gave him such a high evaluation, so who is this person?
He was Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov, a name that would feel very strange when you hear it, but he also has a well-known name, Lenin.
When we think of Lenin, we think of the October Revolution led by Lenin in the Soviet Union, who was the first to stand up for the proletariat. Thus the first socialist country in history was built and a miracle was created. When such a wonderful person died, everyone felt sorry.
In order to commemorate this great man, Russia did not bury his body for safety, but used anti-embalming technology to keep Lenin's body to this day, but although the technology is getting better little by little, Lenin's body is only 10%, so why does the country spend a huge amount of money on embalming every year? Why did Putin refuse Lenin's entry into the ground again and again?
I. The Great Lenin
Born in 1870 in a small city on the Volga River, Lenin received a good education from an early age because his parents were intellectuals, and lenin's academic performance has been among the best after going to school, and finally he became a student at Kazan University.
Because Lenin's ideas were more active, and he especially admired both Marx and Engels, his free time would be spent studying their ideas, extracting the essence from them, and integrating them with his own opinions and ideas, and finally combining the situation in the Soviet Union at that time, he proposed in 1900 that he wanted to establish the first people-to-rule state.
After this idea was put forward, the proletariat ushered in the first dawn, but under the social conditions at that time, Lenin's series of ideas and actions were incompatible with other parties, so Lenin experienced exile, arrest and even assassination, but Lenin did not give up his views, and in 1903 formed the Bolshevik Party with Lenin as the core, which meant that Leninism was born.
In 1905, Lenin's leadership of the revolution failed, and he began a life of exile again, during which time he did not complain about himself, but wrote a series of works that developed Marxism better. In 1917, the October Revolution in Russia led by Lenin was successful, establishing the world's first state under the dictatorship of the proletariat and ushering in a new era in history.
Ii. Death of Lenin
Although Lenin's mind began to be reborn, his body was no longer as good as before, and in 1918, Lenin was shot and killed because of the poor medical level at that time, and the bullet was not removed, which was one of the reasons that later affected his physical health.
In 1922, after two more strokes, he knew that his body could not be carried anymore, so he wrote a will and handed over the matter to his wife and successor. It was not until 1923 that Lenin suffered another stroke, this time apparently more severely than the last two, and did not utter a word until the day Lenin left.
On January 21, 1924, Lenin died at the age of 53, because of Lenin's great contribution to Russia, so scientists preserved his body, only part of his body was deconstructed to find out the cause of his death.
According to historical records, Lenin died of arteriosclerosis in the neck, and the culprit was the bullet of that year. A generation of leaders fell, everyone from all over the country came to Moscow to bid him farewell, and Lenin's legendary life came to an end.
(3) The remains of Lenin shall be preserved
After Lenin's death, the people and the government of the whole country regretted it, and finally the government, in order to comply with the will of the people, made the decision to keep Lenin's body for a long time, so that generations could come to pay homage to this great leader at any time.
Although Lenin is gone forever, as long as his body is still there, people feel very relieved that his ideas can lead everyone to create a new life. Because the soviet technology at that time was not very advanced, and no method of embalming of the remains was developed, the preservation of the remains was a difficult problem.
Due to the natural conditions of the cold and freezing in Russia, so the time to develop antiseptic methods is also relatively abundant, before Lenin's body decayed, the clever Jewish Boris finally developed an antiseptic liquid, just apply to the skin, will make the skin remain elastic, but this can only play a role in delaying.
The staff needed to inject the body with drugs every week, and also regularly rub antiseptic drugs, and there were strict requirements for the temperature and humidity of the coffin. With the passage of time, even though a lot of manpower and material resources were consumed, Lenin's body was still slowly decaying.
Because the society was still relatively turbulent at that time, there would be war at any time, in 1941, the Soviet Union and Germany fought, Lenin's body had to be transferred, in the process of transportation, there will inevitably be bumps, some parts of the body will be lost, and later placed in Red Square, due to the lack of embalming work, coupled with the change of the environment, the body is even more incomplete. In desperation, I had to use a synthetic torso.
After the collapse of the Soviet Union, there was a huge disagreement about the whereabouts of Lenin's body, and most people believed that since only 10% of the body remained, why did so many people have to come to see him every day? Lenin's crystal coffin was extremely valuable, and the body cost a huge amount of money every year to prevent embalming, so why not let him be buried?
Understanding the thoughts of the masses of the people, Russian President Vladimir Putin said domineeringly: "We must leave the body of Lenin, this is not conservative, nor is it a waste of resources, but respect and recognition of history and great people, Lenin's spirit will always be the spiritual pillar of Russia, if we forget him, then we will soon become a mess." ”
4. Summary
For each country has its own glorious history, and all we can do is to keep their spirit, so that we can be worthy of the country they have laid for us. There is a saying that some people live but he is dead, and some people die, and he is still alive in the hearts of the people. Lenin was such a man, and although we had never met, his ideas were exceptionally consistent.
As a great leader, Lenin's deeds have long been immersed in every corner of Russia, but also made every Russian people remember, although the body is undergoing force majeure changes, but as long as we do our best to protect, that is, we have not forgotten him, not forgotten history, but carved his spirit in the bones, it will never be erased.
