Miracle of Rebirth

As I look at the road, a gray ribbon rushing towards me, a thought occurs to me. It really changes after acceptance. Actually, it's quite logical: if the past changes, then the future must change too. I used to always compare a patient's current state with their state before acceptance and draw conclusions.

But then one day I was consulting a mother and daughter. The girl had started experiencing very positive changes. And I somehow decided to look and compare her condition. I had looked at her past several times before, but I had forgotten what it looked like. And so, habitually, I delve into the past and try to retrieve information about her condition before acceptance, and suddenly I get a headache. I detect a flare-up of the self-destructive program in my field. I diagnose very serious disorders. This is dangerous. I need to figure out what's going on immediately.

And I understood: her condition had already changed before acceptance, and I, remembering the familiar picture, was trying to restore it and thus destroying her present and future.

It turns out that through prayer directed to God, not only can one change oneself. Simultaneously, the past and future change. That's why even the most hardened sinners, when turning to God, received forgiveness, that is, a new destiny.

The past stopped affecting them because it became different. In the Indian concept of karma, there is no such thing. Whatever you have done, you must work it off. You cannot change.

If you are rich, you are destined to be rich, it's your karma, it's your caste. If you are smart, you and your children and grandchildren will be smart; if you are a sinner, your descendants will be the same.

Ten thousand years ago, such a view of things was fair and contributed to the development of society. The character a person received from birth, from their parents, determined who they would be further. Five thousand years ago, such a view of things ceased to be unshakable. Two thousand years ago, it was questioned.

Jesus Christ shattered the conventional view of human destiny. But to this day, official science asserts: «It is impossible to change character.» Indeed, without faith in God, it is truly impossible. But I see that character changes through my patients.

There is a timid knock on the door. A girl enters and sits down. Her face seems familiar to me. I try to remember and can't. She starts to smile. And at that moment it dawns on me — cancer, the doctors' verdict: removal of the eye. I remember how bad she felt after acceptance. I refused to speak with her parents over the phone back then. I saw the readiness to change only in her.

«My condition is good now,» the girl says, smiling, «But, truth be told, there are still some minor problems.»

«Those are your future situations with men,» I say, «You haven't fully gone through them yet. Love is still lacking. But even your future children look better.»

She looks at me askance.

«You described my case in your book.»

«Yes,» I nod, «I did.»

«But I'm a completely different person now. I'm not who I was before.»

«And I wrote about another person. You can consider it as if I was writing about a stranger.»

«You know, at first, changing was very difficult, but then it became easier and easier.»

«I had the same experience,» I say, «But when I was told: cancer, metastases, and no chance of survival, I realized — that person in me died. I decided to become someone else, and I did.»

The girl smiles again.

«You know, I also had, it turns out, metastases.»

«Whether you had them or not is no longer significant. Right now, you lack the vision of Divine will and love in everything.»

You need to think and see the Divine more often than the human. Then you will stop relying on the human essence, and any changes it undergoes will not destroy you but rather develop you.
