UPDATE:
Leading up to January 2022, Todor Zhivkov’s birth date was not known and has never been officially confirmed. Following the provisions of the LAW ON PERSONS /LP/ State Gazette 273 of 17.12.1907, in force from 01.01.1909, Boris Deen, the author of the book “Original Yoga – Superhumans” made a remarkable discovery in the State Archives in Sofia, Bulgaria: Zhivkov’s birth certificate, dated September 8, 1911, which contained the exact time and date of his birth published in the first Bulgarian edition of the book.
The man who ruled Bulgaria for 35 years with an iron fist, Todor Hristov Zhivkov, was born on September 2, 1911, at 9 a.m. according to the Julian calendar, as shown by the document.
In strict compliance with the LAW ON PERSONS /LL/ SG 273 of 17.12.1907, in force from 01.01.1909, Todor Hristov Zhivkov’s birth certificate was meticulously drafted as a civil document and this fact seems not to have been known to Zhivkov, which is why he makes erroneous inferences and calculations based on his baptismal certificate.
I am delighted to provide you here the link of the section named “Encyclopedias change of records” with the high-resolution file of the document that I have discovered and described in my book. Through careful examination, you will undoubtedly be convinced of its authenticity. The reference number of the document in the State Archives Sofia, Bulgaria, is: Ф. 420К, оп.3, а.с. 9, л. 63гр.
Also there is my letter to the editors of Encyclopaedia Britannica from October 4, 2024, and their records still show Todor Zhivkov’s incorrect birth date, a persistent factual error. It’s hard for the truth to emerge from the depths of deception, isn’t it?
Across Bulgaria, this remarkable discovery was reported in the leading newspapers and news outlets:

In Bulgaria, the Gregorian calendar was introduced into civil life by Decree No. 8 of king Ferdinand I, according to which 31.III.1916 was immediately followed by the date 14.IV.1916 (State Gazette, issue 65, 21.III.1916) that is why Todor Zhivkov’s birthdate, according to the Gregorian calendar, falls on September 15, 1911.
Because of the aforementioned, please make the adjustments to your records without delay.
