Source: "The most vigorous development of the movement occurred in the United States starting at the end of 1940s, under the leadership of Ernests Brastiņš's brother Arvīds. Arvīds Brastiņš became the Grand Leader in 1947, and he kept this position until his death in 1984." (Baltic Religion: New Religious Movements, p. 764, professions at Literatura.lv, in Latvian)
- ALT1:... that Arvīds Brastiņš continued the neopagan movement Dievturība in America after it was suppressed by the Soviet Union? Source: "After the occupation of the Baltic countries by the U.S.S.R., pagan movements were claimed to be of a chauvinistic character, and thus inherently inimical to the ideas of communism and internationalism. They were destroyed and their members persecuted." + same as above (Baltic Religion: New Religious Movements, p. 764)
