Let us not resort to lengthy introductory reasoning and instead begin straight away with the statement of a rather obvious and already overused fact: all is not well with humanity. What is so special about this thought? Show me something with which all is well. The unhappiness of anything is the normal state of this anything. Otherwise it would be… Continue reading "The General Concept of Civilisation"
Have you ever thought about the future of humanity? I suppose most people would answer “yes.” However, upon closer examination, these thoughts about the future might not have been true reflections. Typically, only a scientific forecaster, a futurist, or a dedicated dreamer with a broad worldview would sit down and seriously contemplate the paths of human development, construct theoretical models… Continue reading "Everything Will Be Alright"
The electronic journal in which the article you are currently reading is published is called Our Space. The meaning of this title is not immediately obvious. Perhaps some readers wonder, “What does that mean?” And indeed — what does it mean? What kind of space is this? And why is it “ours”? Have the followers of the Teaching claimed some… Continue reading "What Does “Our Space” Mean?"
Perhaps the very title of this article seems strange to someone. Firstly, it is too straightforward, too head-on. Secondly, a question arises: does the Teaching have any special relations with the disabled? The answer to the first question is: yes, the title is straightforward, I did not invent allegorical and beautiful words. I want it to be immediately clear what… Continue reading "Teaching and the disabled"
Atharkhat to his followers Greetings and good wishes. 1. I am writing these words as a warning to you and as an admonition. There are many evils in the world that one should beware of, some threatening a man from the outside and others from the inside. The latter are often so intricately intertwined with the former that it is… Continue reading "About Pridefulness"
Atharkhat to the followers Greetings and good wishes. 1. The world is large and very complex. There are innumerable ways to innumerable purposes in it; every phenomenon may have more than one or two sides; and it is often difficult to understand the place of something really simple. A human being is complex; and it can be difficult for him… Continue reading "About fanatism"
If you ask a follower of the Teaching a question about his religion, you may hear in response: “I am from the Eternal People”. However, this will not be a statement of nationality or religion (because the Teaching is not a religion). What does it mean? Who are the Eternal People? At first glance it is very simple:… Continue reading "Eternal people: beyond limits"
At the end of the twentieth century, a new page was opened in the history of the Teaching of the United Temple. The date of its foundation under this name is March 1, 1996; however, this date does not mark the birth of the Teaching as such, but the beginning of another stage of its existence. And though the Teaching… Continue reading "About the Teaching of the United Temple"
Mitevma of Athena I am: let everyone know it. My gaze cannot be obscured, nor can anyone hide from it. None can deflect the blow of my sword. My sword is drawn against the one who unjustly raised his sword; I will give a defensive and bludgeoning sword to the one who is right and needs it. My watch is… Continue reading "Promahos"
Mitevma of Atarkhat There is something that will or will not take place in the future, for the way of the will of those who are aware is concealed even from them, and there is something that must take place inevitably. I am aware of the inevitable and I will speak about it. The true teaching has now been revealed… Continue reading "Melont"
