In my first two books, I described the situation concerning vampires.
I remember a friend once told me a story about a woman who periodically takes men as business partners. She pays them a lot of money, much more than they expected. After some time, the partners either get sick or die. «That woman has a fiery temperament,» my friend remarked. «The men can't handle it.»
«It's a different mechanism,» I replied. «She buys them off with money. Their soul becomes dependent on her. And vampirism can affect not just health and fate, but even one's psyche and abilities.»
«And why doesn’t God punish her for killing people?» he asked.
«If there's someone willing to sell their soul, there will be someone willing to buy it,» I replied.
One can be fully open only to God. This is what both the Old and New Testaments tell us. Love for God must come above all else.
Worshiping a person because they have money, because they're intelligent and talented, because they're beautiful, or because they're a relative who cares for you — this is, to some degree, selling one's soul. And this, naturally, leads to being slowed down by misfortunes, illnesses, or anything else.
The driver interrupts my thoughts.
«You see these sheets on my dashboard? I'm giving you one. It has an address on it; you can visit our center, take a test, and go through diagnostics. Your character will improve. Do you have issues with your character, like things about yourself that you don't like?»
«Of course I do. Irritability, for one,» I said.
«In that case, I have good news for you,» my companion replied energetically. «With the help of this book, you can quickly change your character and become a different person.»
«I used to be incredibly irritable myself. As soon as something wasn't going my way, I'd immediately get angry. But now I'm a completely different person — calm, patient.»
«Interesting,» I said, flipping through the book, «very interesting.»
«So, are you going to buy it or not?» the driver asked cheerfully.
«It's tough, you know. I worked a lot yesterday, my head hurts, and all I want is to get to the bathhouse.»
«Well, it's up to you,» the driver said nonchalantly, continuing to drive.
«Interesting, what's his energy field like?» I wondered. I assessed him and saw an intriguing picture. His overall aura was decent, with a high level of energy. But the finer structures of his future looked as though they'd been plowed by a tractor. In other words, this friendly, pleasant man was living in illusions.
His personal transformation and changes were happening only on the surface level. He was burning through his strategic resources. Judging by everything, he would hold out for a while, and things would even go well for him for some time. But eventually, if he didn’t find students who would transfer their soul’s strategic reserves to him, he’d run into trouble.
If a person stops creating and only consumes, they are doomed, no matter how much energy they accumulate.
The most curious thing was that even while I was still in the car, my gums began to ache intensely, and this continued for some time after I parted ways with the driver.
I examined myself and was surprised: desires were exploding inside me, and I was intensely focused on them.
«Just think, how deeply ingrained our desire for a free ride is!» I chuckled to myself. «My mind understands everything, but my soul is racing after this man who promised me money, health, abilities, and success.»
This situation helped me understand the difference between a cult and a religion.
The divine in a person becomes indistinguishable; it clashes with the human when there is worship of consciousness and desire, when the meaning of life becomes the joy of fulfilling one's desires.
I vividly recall how, at the age of eighteen, an examiner asked me: «What is happiness for you?» For some reason, I remembered how someone had said that happiness is scratching when you itch, and I replied: «The meaning of life is in the satisfaction of desires.»
He gave me a strange look but said nothing. Now I understand why. To feel the divine, one must renounce consciousness and desires.
Religion teaches us to overcome dependence on consciousness and desires. A cult, on the contrary, caters to desires.
Who joins a cult? People who have a strong internal dependence on the human. One person has an enormous desire to feel superior to others, but life constantly humiliates them.
Such a person seeks to join either an occult school or a contactee group or a cult where they can feel smarter, more insightful than others: «I am initiated, I know, and you do not.»
Instead of overcoming dependence on consciousness, this dependence is strengthened. Naturally, over time, the psyche and fate begin to collapse. The person becomes completely captive to their complexes.
What is a complex? It’s a powerful hidden dependence on desires and consciousness.
One person is afraid of everything, another is always depressed, a third is dissatisfied with everyone, a fourth holds grudges against everyone, a fifth is jealous, and a sixth is judgmental.
And the more these complexes deepen, the harder it is to handle traumatic situations. Negative emotions accumulate in the soul. Such a state becomes unbearable and can be stopped by illness, alcohol, or drugs.
When a person joins a cult, they experience no negative emotions. They are promised only positive ones. The person tries this «drug» and disconnects from the world.
And a miracle happens—there is no more pain, no more conflict. Continuous joy, fun, happiness.
But the fact that their subtle structures are being destroyed and their channels of love are being blocked goes unnoticed. All they know is that they must hold onto this feeling of happiness.
However, positive emotions seem to disappear, and there’s less and less energy. But when they recruit new followers, the illusion of happiness flares up again. «That’s because I’m doing a noble deed,» the person thinks.
The circle of such «happy» people expands, and the person may not even realize that they are draining energy from others' souls.
As a result, cult members can be divided into two groups: a small number of vampires and a large number of donors.
In economics, this is called the pyramid scheme principle. And as we can see, it works brilliantly not only in economics.
If you step outside and look around carefully, your inner vision may catch sight of a great number of people ready to sell their souls — ready to worship money, intellect, beauty, fame, or popularity, but not love.
