There are many definitions of what is good and what is evil. It is not surprising: people have always been answering this question. There is only one question that could be more popular: “What is the meaning of life?”. Unfortunately, none of the answers was convincing enough to be accepted by the majority. However, if we talk about morality, we… Continue reading "At the origins of the good and the evil"
Can significant spiritual progress be achieved in a short period of time? Many are convinced it is possible. One of the problems of modern society is that it is conditioned to satisfy its needs with substitutes, because it’s easier and quicker that way. People are becoming more and more impatient and superficial. When someone is hungry, they go to a… Continue reading "Life-long Path"
The question “Is there life on Mars?” has long been part of folklore, as well as the expression “little green men from Mars”. Both have turned into familiar phrases, often used with an ironic tone. This is a remnant from a time when some eagerly hoped for humanity to find intelligent life elsewhere, while others dismissed the very question of… Continue reading "In the Ocean of Intelligent Life"
I believe, friends, rocket caravans will rush us forward from star to star. On the dusty paths of distant planets Our tracks will remain. V. Voinovich They say: “If God had meant us to fly he’d have given us wings”. This proverb is often applied to a person. This was once said, usually with irony, about those who dreamed of… Continue reading "A cosmic race"
The term “cosmos” first appeared in ancient Greek philosophy, where it referred to the system of the world as a unified whole, encompassing everything — from the movement of the celestial bodies to the social life of humans. And although the world in the worldviews of that time was different, the idea of it as a single system was very… Continue reading "Our Cosmism"
If you ask me: “Which Doctrine fortells the end of the world?”, I will answer: “None of them. There is no eschatology. The world will not end — unless, of course, people themselves bring it to the end”. Indeed, no mystical “end of the world” associated with the punishment by mighty powers or supernatural last battle between the forces of… Continue reading "Don’t destroy the Creator"
My favourite quote from the pandect, which I have adopted as my personal motto, is this one: “Tomorrow’s day will see the one who walks into the night” (The Five Pearls I, 10). Why this one? Because it formulates one of the most important principles, both for human life in general and for following the Teaching. It can be rephrased… Continue reading "The One Who Walks Into the Night"
The concept of “spirituality” is usually associated with religion. In the case of the Teaching, this association is reinforced by the fact that it uses terminology partially drawn from religious lexicon. A person who looks at our texts and other materials sees that they mention the Creator, gods, the afterlife, reincarnations, revelations — and they might get the impression that… Continue reading "Religion? No. Spiritual Path"
How it all began It turned out to be not such an easy task for me to start writing this diary. The thing is that the events I would like to describe in this diary took place a few years ago. And looking back it is hard to remember the former version of myself because now I am a different… Continue reading "The Diary of Amradkhari"
The teaching of the United Temple is based on revelation. Therefore, the prophet is the key figure in it. It has always been so, at all times of the existence of the Teaching. For several hundred thousand years, 27 prophets received the revelation of the God of Wisdom and passed on this knowledge to their apprentices. Since… Continue reading "About the Prophet"
