What values ​​can I call eternal? What are "eternal values"

09.10.2005. Love Lesson #26 (Divine Word):

“...I, your God, reveal for you all the sources of life on Earth, in heaven and in space. These are the main values ​​that form the crystal of integrity: Business. Family. Money. House. Love. Children. Harmony. Health. Force. Inspiration. Joy and Happiness. The life of a person of modern times (the Age of Fire) consists of these basic values. They allow you to love life and live love.
Unity in integrity is the unity of values ​​in human life.
There is a crystal of integrity internal source benefits.
Business, family, money, home - earthly blessings.
Love, children, harmony, health are heavenly blessings.
Strength, inspiration, joy, happiness are cosmic blessings.
They reveal and saturate each other. The crystal of integrity is growing. Unity in integrity grows..."

A person works off earthly values.
A person earns heavenly values.
Man discovers cosmic values ​​in the depths of his soul.

Life values ​​are what a person should value in life, what he should value and what he should treat responsibly. This does not mean at all that if a person does not have one or more values, then he is disadvantaged and cannot live life to the fullest. Quite the contrary, even one value, with the right attitude towards it, can fill life. God gave us 12 eternal, true, life values and it depends only on our attitude towards them whether we have them in our lives or not:

1. Case.
2. Family.
3. Money.
4. Home.
5. Love.
6. Children.
7. Harmony.
8. Health.
9. Strength.
10.Inspiration.
11.Joy.
12.Happiness.

The order of values ​​does not determine their significance, the order determines their level:
Business, family, money, home- earthly values.
Love, children, harmony, health- heavenly values.
Strength, inspiration, joy, happiness- cosmic values.

Values ​​are available to everyone without exception, but not everyone understands their importance in life. The significance of values ​​is determined by the person himself by his attitude towards them. It is impossible to overestimate eternal values; besides, their value does not change under any circumstances. But this does not mean that if a person does not have money, he cannot be happy, or if a person is sick, then inspiration will never come to him, or if a person has nowhere to live, then he will not be able to love. It is important to appreciate and understand the general, impersonal significance of values.

6.12.2005. From "The Way Home":
“God gave man a soul that can feel deeply. The deepest feelings of the soul are the main wealth of a person. It allows you to experience the highest spiritual values. Only deeply feeling souls can appreciate life and feel the joy and happiness of existence, feel true taste life.
A sense of responsibility allows one to observe the basic law of eternity “thou shalt not break” and preserves earthly, heavenly and cosmic values ​​received from God.
A feeling of gratitude allows you to appreciate life, allows you to appreciate true Divine values...”

Please note: neither food, nor clothing, nor furniture, nor works of art, nor jewelry, nor friendship, nor mutual understanding and support are values. What we eat, how we dress, what we have in our home is certainly important, but not paramount. Also, what we usually value in people does not belong to values: upbringing, education, intelligence, sense of humor. Nor are originality, honesty, gratitude, or responsibility among the values. If a person feels harmony with the world around him, then all these skills and qualities will be natural to him.

10/15/2005. From "The Way Home":
“...You are undergoing a process of reincarnation, a process of enriching consciousness. Basic life values ​​acquire their real value, acquire true authenticity and true value...

... On Earth, true values ​​are confused and devalued:
Case leads away from families.
Chase after money destroys families.
House And health eat most of it money.
Children take away health And force parents.
Parents don't give children build your own life.
Love brings a minute joy and takes it from a person strength.
Concept harmony exists only in music.
Behind inspiration And happiness They pay with suffering and pain.

Such is the gray existence. These are the cruel laws of the gray world.
The pursuit of external beauty requires irreparable sacrifices and brings neither mental nor physical health…
...The process of transformation is a process of revaluation of values..., the revelation of beauty and harmony inner world person..."

06.12.2005. From "The Way Home" (Divine Word):
“My children, listen to me, your God! Listen and remember!
Each person is responsible for his own business, for his family, for his money, for his home.
Each person is responsible for his love, for his children, for his health.
In response to me, to the Earth, to all humanity and to myself.
Each person is responsible for the purity, honor and conscience of all humanity before the entire universe, before the entire universe.”

09/07/2006. “Physics of Love” - lesson No. 2 (lesson of the Great Supreme Absolute):
"IN new life Only a person who follows the Ten Commandments can enter.
The Divine Solution is at work in New Life. Conscience tells you how to do it. Man becomes one with everything that God has created.
The gray world denies the Divine, does not accept the Divine Decision, therefore it cannot be part of the One Whole. The gray world does not live. The gray world exists.
Eternal life values ​​are the tests of eternity.
To live is to be free."

If a person does not value the eternal values ​​of life, then the false values ​​of the gray world take their place. The gray world tries to deceive a person, to devalue eternal life values. He offers man his values, false and insidious:

1. Busy instead of doing.
2. Kinship ties instead of family.
3. Income and profit instead of money.
4. Housing instead of home.
5. Sex and attraction instead of love.
6. Heirs instead of children.
7. Calm instead of harmony.
8. Physical strength instead of health.
9. Power and education instead of force.
10. Efficiency and endurance instead of inspiration.
11. Enjoyment, pleasure and satisfaction instead of joy.
12. Carelessness and oblivion instead of happiness.

09.21.2008. From New Life Lesson #39:
“...There is no more transitional time. The gap between old and new has widened. The false values ​​of the gray world are devalued. Today they are losing power. Tomorrow they will lose power...”

A revaluation of values ​​is always a restructuring of consciousness, and a restructuring of consciousness is always both a restructuring of the body and the collapse of unrealistic hopes.

Every person's life has its own values.. For some it is wealth, property and property, for others own business, and for some, the relationships of close and dear people, which in reality are more valuable than all the riches of the world. And sometimes some people don't even think about it. They live in luxurious mansions, in luxury and have no idea about the real real life. Main character this movie Rahul , just one of these people, he is the only son of a millionaire. He was always used to living on everything that was ready and never thought about his behavior, he always did what he liked and what he wanted. One day he finds himself in a terrible situation - a major car accident occurs because of him. The court sentenced Rahula he must work in a nursing home for one month. Rahul until he even suspects that these thirty days will change his whole life, his idea of ​​this world and, most importantly, his attitude towards life.

I looked with great pleasure! Like all Indian films, it is filled with dancing, smiles, a complicated love story with a happy ending and enchanting music. Good film. Very good. About you and me today and the future. We are madly trying to disown our conscience. But the time will come when everyone will meet her again. Will we look her straight in the eye or hide our own? Or do we think that this cup will pass from us? And one more thing: many thanks to the authors for the absence of emptiness and soap, so often found recently in films from other countries. THANKS from pure heart!

How incredibly good it is here Abhishek Bachchan. This is entirely his role. No one could have played better, in my opinion. Only Abhishek can so naturally and sincerely show all the contradictions of his character. It was very interesting to watch how an extremely spoiled, selfish and impudent youth turns into normal person. After all, in reality he good man, With kind hearted, very sincere and spontaneous, but absolutely careless and incredibly far from real life. And so Fate gave him a chance to understand everything that was happening. And who else, if not people of the older generation, can help him with this? And they help. Abhishek is simply irresistible in this role. High marks for his work. 100%

Hrishita Bhatt I was also very pleased. Lately I really like her, I’ve seen her in more than one film and she’s always excellent. AND here she is very beautiful, gentle, sweet, sincere. And it is the Love of her heroine Nehi To Rahul , helped him realize everything that was happening around him and understand all his mistakes.

And a whole galaxy of brilliant actors from past years who played the roles of residents of an elderly home are simply a treat for the eyes. Great as always Amrish Puri, brilliant Helen, Om Puri, Tinnu Anand, A. K. Hangal, Shobha Khote, Viju Khote, Ajahn Srivastava, you can’t list them all. All of them are the main decoration of this film. Both in their youth and in their old age, these people continue to be at their best, everything is performed flawlessly and at the highest level. However, as always. I was glad to see them all on screen again.

And here Mohnish Behl again in the role of the main scoundrel. Although at first I was really happy that he finally had a positive role. And so it was until the middle of the film, a simple, honest manager of a nursing home, very kind and sympathetic. But, I forgot, in Indian cinema everything always changes so unexpectedly and in the end the bastard turns out to be someone you don’t even suspect.

A very educational film! Made me think about a lot… A powerful educational and educational film. It is sad that many people mistake advanced age for extreme old age, thinking that all human joys and feelings have long been alien to older people. But that's not true. And life has proven this more than once. Very heartfelt story, which will appeal to all Indian cinema lovers and fans Abhisheka.

No matter how society changes, eternal human values ​​remain for thousands of years, which are of great importance to people of all generations, religions and cultures. And they will never lose their relevance.

FAITH
Adults believe the cuckoo and don’t trust doctors, believe horoscopes and don’t trust science. Children easily believe in miracles and live in fantasies until a certain age. By the way, it is very dangerous to break a child’s faith in miracles at an early age. A child's faith in Santa Claus does not pass without a trace. It leaves a clear trace and firm confidence in the subconscious: miracles are possible. Why does an adult need this? Many of us sometimes experience events in our lives that we cannot take control of. Then we can only hope for a miracle.

HEALTH
Health is a priceless gift that nature gives to man. Without it it is very difficult to make life interesting and happy. But how often do we waste this gift, forgetting that losing health is easy, but getting it back is very, very difficult. Statistics give us the following figures. 20% of human health depends on heredity. Another 20% of health is determined by the environmental situation. Human health depends only 10% on healthcare. And 50% of a person’s health is determined by his lifestyle.

FRIENDSHIP
Friends are a special category of people who have always been especially valuable. Friendship has always been considered the strongest alliance. At various stages social development it acquired new qualities and was realized in various forms: brotherhood in arms, relationships based on common spiritual interests, emotional attachment. By the way, there is International Friends Day, which is celebrated on June 9th.

LIFE
Do you remember your favorite childhood cartoon “The Kid and Carlson”? In one of his episodes, the Kid asked his father a completely unique question: “Listen, Dad, if I’m really worth a hundred thousand million, then couldn’t I get some cash...?” We don't know what dad answered. Although I want to believe that he said: “Human life is priceless, son.”

CULTURE
Culture is the basis of national heritage. It is this value that alone can serve as an eternal foundation for building the future. There is no need that the positive potential of culture accumulated by a person becomes his conscience, his talisman. Now it is hardly possible to imagine modern reality without great works of art, music and literature: the musical masterpieces of Beethoven, the works of Homer, paintings by Van Gogh, Stonehenge and the Marienberg Fortress.

LOVE
We all, without exception, strive to love and be loved. Love is something we constantly think about, about which poets write in all centuries, and singers compose songs.
By the way, doctors half-seriously highlight the “Don Juan syndrome”, characteristic of some people who cannot do without love and want to remain in this state forever. Increased level always provides them with hormones good mood, activity, which has a positive effect on the entire body as a whole.

WORLD
Eternal peace is the ideal of humanity, unattainable to this day. But all countries on the planet are striving for it. Awarded annually Nobel Prize people who have made a significant contribution to the cause of peace and friendship of peoples. The prize is mainly awarded to fighters against militarism, participants international organizations, human rights activists. For example, in 2011, the award was presented to Leymah Roberta Gbowee, Tawakul Karman and Helen Johnson Sirleaf “for the full participation of women in building peace.”

HOMELAND
Motherland is a synonym for the word Fatherland, the place where a person was born, as well as the country in which he was born and to the fate of which he feels involved. In Russia, the Motherland is the main value: they protect it, they fight for it. By the way, in Chinese “homeland” is tzu-guo, that is, the country of ancestors, jia-xiang is the father’s house, and gu-xiang is the native place. It is interesting that a Chinese person who has changed his place of residence is listed by place of origin, that is, the person is considered a Shanghainese, even if he was born in Beijing in the third generation of immigrants from Shanghai.

INDEPENDENCE
At all times, many states fought for their independence and freedom. And the most popular holiday in these countries is Independence Day. For example, Independence Day of Brazil is celebrated on September 7, Greece - March 25, Finland - December 6, Sweden - June 6. This holiday is considered one of the main ones in the USA. The whole country celebrates it on July 4th every year on a grand scale. By the way, in 2011, Americans spent national holiday about 2.8 billion dollars. This is evidenced by the results of a survey conducted National Federation retail USA.

FAMILY
The life story of every person is, first of all, the story of his family. There is no bond stronger than family ties. There is no feeling stronger and more sincere than parental love. Heat family relations at all times made a person kinder, more caring and more tolerant of others. Interestingly, the largest family in the world lives in India in the village of Baktwang. It consists of 181 people. Zion Chan, 67, has 39 wives, 94 children, 33 grandchildren and 14 daughters-in-law.

IS IT TRUE
No one has seen it, it cannot be touched... Although it is often sought for, even more often expected (mainly from others), sometimes it is not enough, sometimes it is partial, it can be given away, it can be used to prick your eyes. She doesn’t burn in fire and doesn’t drown in water - it’s true. Some people love her, but others are afraid of her. But no one will argue that the truth is priceless. And the film “The Price of Truth” talks about how much you have to pay to find out the truth.

HUMAN
Man is not only highest value, recognized throughout the world, but also a collection of many interesting facts. For example, man is the only representative of the animal world who is able to draw straight lines. Human brain generates more electrical impulses per day than all the phones in the world combined. In addition, there are about 75 kilometers of nerves in the adult human body.

What is important and what is unimportant for Russians today, why are traditional values ​​dear to them, and why is Leonid Brezhnev still remembered with kind words? Academician Mikhail Gorshkov, director of the Institute of Sociology of the Russian Academy of Sciences, reflects on this

– If you try to identify five or six main life values ​​that are significant for modern Russians, what value hierarchy will you get?

- Quite predictable. For example, if we compare the modern Russian scale of values ​​with the readings of the same Eurobarometer, it is easy to notice that the basic values ​​of Russians and Europeans generally coincide: family, material wealth, interesting job, respect for others, coupled with awareness of one’s place in society, a good education, spiritual harmony or, in other words, a clear conscience. But there is a serious difference: any European will be surprised that in the list of values ​​of today's Russians such a concept as democracy occupies only ten-twelfth place.

“WE ASKED CITIZENS: “In what period Russian history would you like to live?
32% chose modern Russia. It is followed by the Brezhnev USSR with a margin of 10%.”

In general, we need to talk not about formal items on the list of values, but about the content of each of these concepts. Let's say, how do we understand family? For us, this is the creation of a unique union between representatives of opposite sexes. Europeans see family differently, including in the same-sex version. But for Russians such an idea of ​​the family is unacceptable due to traditions and primordial human nature. Nevertheless, both Europeans and Russians place family first in the hierarchy of values. Because of the difference in understanding the same values, Europeans feel that we are too different from them.

- And in fact?

– First of all, why do we have to be like someone, even the residents Western Europe? Secondly, it is important to understand: the value choice is determined not by an abstract approach to this or that concept, but by how a person perceives it, what is behind this concept for him. And here a lot depends on how the same values ​​are interpreted in Russia and Europe.

Thus, Russians and Europeans explain differently what democracy is. For Europeans, this is an expression of the will of the people, a requirement for the authorities to take into account, first of all, the interests of the people. But for Russians, democracy is more likely a tool for improving the standard of living of the population. They believe that if this function is fulfilled, the country can be considered democratic. In addition, in their opinion, democracy must ensure social order and protect the dignity of the individual before society. Agree, there is nothing wrong with this idea of ​​democracy. However, it does not fit into the framework of the usual definitions from political science textbooks. And our European opponents cannot understand this discrepancy and its origins.

About seven or eight years ago in one of the messages Federal Assembly President Vladimir Putin emphasized that society, in its attitude to any phenomenon, cannot go beyond the level of political culture achieved in a given historical period. If you look at the situation from this angle, then you get a completely sound, and most importantly, objective picture, which allows you to understand why Russian society today is distinguished by precisely these, and not any other characteristic features.

Why do we react to any attacks from the outside? Yes, because we want to be who we are, we want to maintain our sense of civic dignity. We do not like it when scenarios for global development and the distribution of roles in the major league of world politics are developed and implemented without our participation. Why should a power that occupies vast areas put up with this? Now, if something doesn’t suit the United States and the leading countries of Western Europe, that’s another matter. However, there is a concept of national interests of the state, which our opponents very much protect, but for some reason they deny us this.

– You spoke about the interests of the state, but what content do Russians put into the concept of “state”? For them, is this a plus or minus force? And what qualities in this force are main for them, and what are secondary?

– According to surveys, in last years The share of the population has significantly increased, pinning great hopes on the state, perceiving the state as the father of a large family, who will always help and show care.

It is also noteworthy that the liberal model of the economy, which implies exclusively market mechanisms, is supported by 12–14% of citizens. At the same time, a third of Russians choose a planned economy, apparently based on Soviet experience. And the bulk of the population of our country prefers mixed type economy. This is approximately the type that Vladimir Lenin described in his works on the NEP. The state should have the commanding heights in the economy, and the small, medium business and what is related to services (medicine, education, household services) should be both in joint management and in the hands of a private owner.

– Can we say today that the country is experiencing a kind of renaissance of conservative values?

– It would be more correct to talk about a certain transformation of the concept of “conservatism.” Nowadays, it is no longer perceived as a counterweight to reform or progress. It's more about striving for the golden mean, for preserving traditions. Moreover, understood as the adoption from the previous spiritual and practical heritage of what is consonant with and meets the interests of today. This trend is the spirit of the times. In general, this is characteristic of a normal psyche: a person cannot be constantly focused on developing something new. However, he also cannot ignore everything new.

People say that they stand for stability, but for developing stability, for the acquisition of a new quality, but adapted to the basics.

– Do you agree that in the eyes of Russian citizens the values ​​of Western liberal democracy are largely discredited?

– Surveys show that this is indeed the case. In 1992–1993, these values ​​were shared by 38% of the population, and now only 7%. What is the reason for this transformation? I think there are two factors here.

Firstly, in Russia, liberal ideas initially called what was doomed to failure. I mean universal permissiveness, absolute freedom, or rather, the freedom of the strong over the weak. Secondly, the people finally understood what exactly interests Europe in our country. Europeans are pragmatists, and they are mainly interested in our Natural resources and the opportunity to purchase them cheaper. Even when solving issues of assistance to Russia, what comes to the fore is mainly the desire to profit at our expense.

TASS photo chronicle

– How would you characterize the attitude of Russians towards the past of their country? Is the past a source of pride for them or, conversely, a reason for shame? Traditions that need to be guided by, or experiences that should be avoided?

– Our recent research pleased and surprised us: 95% of Russians consider things associated with the Soviet period to be their source of pride. In fairness, I note that we actually have something to be proud of: victory in the Great Patriotic War, the first manned flight into space, high quality education, achievements in science, culture, sports.

Speaking about the history of our country in the twentieth century, we can roughly distinguish several periods. The first is Russia before 1917, the second is the USSR under Joseph Stalin, the third is Soviet Union under Leonid Brezhnev, the fourth - the country under Mikhail Gorbachev and Boris Yeltsin. And the fifth is modern Russia of the new century.

“OUR RECENT RESEARCH
We ourselves were delighted and surprised: 95% of Russians feel proud of the Soviet period.”

We asked respondents to highlight some of the most significant characteristics of each of these periods. So, the period before 1917 was characterized by success in art, love of the Fatherland, and veneration of Orthodoxy. What were the listed features of the USSR under Stalin? Discipline, order, fear, love for the Fatherland. Largest quantity positive feedback addressed the Brezhnev period: social security, cheerfulness, success in education, science, technology, industry. The Gorbachev-Yeltsin time was assessed negatively: difficult economic situation, interethnic conflicts, economic crisis. The following was said about modern Russia: the opportunity to become a rich man, banditry, crime, corruption, civil political freedoms and at the same time lack of spirituality. Here is a reflection of people from all eras in Russian self-awareness. And let someone try to call our people unsound after this.

– So do Russians see more bad or good in modern times?

– We asked: “In what period of Russian history would you like to live?” 32% chose modern Russia. It is followed by the Brezhnev USSR with a margin of 10%. All other periods received much less support. However, 32% of Russians in the same survey preferred this option: “I cannot identify any period as ideal for Russia.” This means that every third person in our country over 18 years of age is not able to decide with which period of his native history he could connect his dreams and ideas about the state he desires.

– Is this a bad symptom?

– In fact, this is acceptable: our state and society periodically sway from side to side, a certain main path has not been defined, the direction changes with the arrival of a new leader. Plus external circumstances, various crises. When everything is turned upside down, how can you decide on your idea of ​​the ideal model? Put yourself in the shoes of a simple, not very sophisticated or educated person: in such a situation it is really difficult to give an answer. But, to be honest, I thought that there would be much fewer people who would single out modern Russia, but it turned out to be only a third. In my opinion, this is a good sign.

- Why?

– The Germans are very fond of conducting research similar to the one described above; they repeat them every six months. Interestingly, it was only in 1975, 30 years after the end of World War II, that the answer “I would like to live in modern Germany” came first in a German survey. In our country, until 2005–2006, the Brezhnev period was the leader in popularity: 56% were in favor of it, 38% were in favor of modern Russia. In 2007–2008, the desire to live in today's Russia for the first time began to dominate over the preference of the Brezhnev era. Now the advantage is 3 times.

– Do Russian citizens have historical authorities, figures who are clearly perceived with a plus sign?

– Nowadays the concept of moral or spiritual authority has practically disappeared in society. This can be viewed differently, but it is a fact. I think this is bad. There must always be some kind of authority that serves as a guide. Moreover, our mentality is characterized by the need for a leader. That is why I say that the modern lack of moral authority seems to me very sad. There are political authorities, but there are very few of them: Vladimir Putin and Sergei Shoigu. For a country like Russia, this, of course, is not enough. But only time can correct the current situation.

– What happens to the assessment of the leaders of the Soviet era? A recent Levada Center poll shows that the number of citizens recognizing the positive role of Stalin is growing (52%), and 46% of Russians believe that Lenin brought more good than bad to the country. How can this be explained? Is this due to changing values ​​or are people simply becoming more objective in their assessments?

– Similar changes in public opinion are explained by social experience, which the people of Russia have acquired over the past 20 years of reforms. This is a revaluation of values, fatigue from the extremes to which we have fallen, from the mechanical transfer of someone else’s experience to Russian soil. The leaders you mentioned avoided this in their policies; they introduced their own, Russian, traditional in different, sometimes even base, ways.

What is key characteristic Russian identity today? The understanding of the value of “one’s own” has grown incredibly. This does not mean rejecting everything else. We tried to analyze people's opinions about the main lessons of the 20th century: “What do you think we should learn from what the country has experienced over the past 100 years?” The most common answers are as follows: it is necessary to follow your own path, hold on to your own supports and use what is new that correlates with our traditions and values ​​and has proven its effectiveness in the modern era, and not mindlessly copy someone else’s experience. And it doesn’t matter to people where all this most effective stuff comes from – socialism or capitalism. The main thing is that it truly meets the interests of Russian citizens.

DO YOU THINK THE BREZHNEV TIMES WAS A PERIOD OF GOOD DEVELOPMENT OF THE COUNTRY OR A PERIOD OF stagnation, WHICH FINALLY LEADED TO THE COLLAPSE OF THE USSR? (%)

A parable about the values ​​of life. "Cups and Coffee"

A group of graduates of a prestigious university, successful ones who have made a wonderful career, came to visit their old professor. During the visit, the conversation turned to work: graduates complained about numerous difficulties and life problems.

Having offered his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a coffee pot and a tray filled with a variety of cups: porcelain, glass, plastic, crystal. Some were simple, others expensive.

When the graduates took apart the cups, the professor said:

Please note that all the beautiful cups were taken apart, while the simple and cheap ones remained. And although it is normal for you to want only the best for yourself, this is the source of your problems and stress. Understand that the cup itself does not make the coffee better. Most often it is simply more expensive, but sometimes it even hides what we drink. In reality, all you wanted was just coffee, not a cup. But you deliberately chose the best cups, and then looked at who got which cup.

Now think: life is coffee, and work, money, position, society are cups. These are just tools for maintaining and maintaining Life. What kind of cup we have does not determine or change the quality of our Life. Sometimes, when we focus only on the cup, we forget to enjoy the taste of the coffee itself. Most happy people- these are not those who have everything best, but those who extract the best from what they have.

Questions:

1.Who are the heroes of the parable?

2.What did the professor offer to the guests?

1. What can coffee be compared to?
