Why did Jesus Christ say that «a man's enemies will be those of his own household»

The leaves of a tree should not fuse with each other. They should feel their unity through the tree's roots.

The process of losing the aspiration towards God and diverting one's personal energy into idol worship happens imperceptibly. How can you tell if you have strayed from the path?

Science has always tried to portray relationships between people as something immaterial, incorporeal, and illusory. In reality, relationships have a physiology just like our bodies. They require a lot of energy to form and develop.

Why do relationships with childhood friends last the longest? Because in childhood and youth, due to the massive release of psychic energy, new friendships are easily formed. They can be very deep and extensive, hence the feeling of love, joy, and warmth.

In adulthood, relationships are much harder to establish. If a person has no friends, their spiritual energy degenerates just like the muscles of an untrained athlete.

The love and joy we give to people, especially those close to us, develop our soul. The more energy and love we can give, the easier it is for us to know the Creator and connect with Him.

Yet why did Jesus Christ say that 'a man's enemies will be those of his own household'? Let's think about what the feeling of love is. On one hand, it's the desire to connect with a loved one, to dissolve in them; on the other, it's happiness from the maximum release of energy to this person, i.e., the union of two opposites.

If I fuse with my loved one, then the energy of love stops being released, becoming unnecessary. If I distance myself and move away from them, the feeling of love may cool down.

For the development of the feeling of love, communication is necessary. But to ensure that this feeling does not lead to fusion and the demise of souls, one must maintain an internal distance from the loved one.

The leaves of a tree should not fuse with each other. They should feel their unity through the tree's roots.

It turns out that only those spouses who subconsciously give their first, strongest feeling of love to God can be happy and love each other.

Through the energy of love, we access the subtle planes of existence where colossal opportunities are hidden. And there the beloved person looks completely different.

First, there shines the divine 'self' of each person, then their emotional and spiritual shell, and finally, the physical.

Accordingly, the feeling of love should be directed towards the true 'self' of the person, then to their soul, and only then to the body. If all energy is directed to the body, there is a rapid fusion of energy shells.

By our attachment, we block the person from God, their soul stops receiving higher energy and begins to suffer and degenerate. The more a person violates the second commandment, the further they move away from God and love. Aggression grows in the soul and overall energy diminishes.

A woman is more likely to forget about God, worshiping a beloved person. The faster the aspiration towards the Creator is lost, the sooner love turns into passion, becomes consumerist and generates claims and grievances.

The main thing for passion is to receive. If love is happy with sacrifice, giving, and caring, then passion primarily desires pleasure, sex, continuous communication with a loved one.

The process of losing the aspiration towards God and diverting one's personal energy into idol worship happens imperceptibly.

How can you determine that you have strayed from the path? How to know that the soul, instead of worshipping love, worships passion? One must understand what distinguishes love from passion.

In love, there is the pleasure and pain of loss at the same time. Therefore, in love, a person gives and receives simultaneously.

The combination of two opposites does not allow attachment to the object of love. Passion tears apart the opposites and strives only for one of them. Passion wants only pleasure and positive emotions. And the more it desires them, the more furiously it reacts to their loss. Passion does not want to give, it wants only to receive. For such a person, relationships with people become continuous torment. They try to escape from pain, but it inevitably catches up with them. Then the person rushes to where there is no pain, only pleasure.

Besides sex, this includes alcohol and drugs. This is a classic case of breaking the opposites. First, there is a feeling of complete happiness, paradise, euphoria. Then, only negative emotions follow the positive ones.

A person who believes that happiness is the absence of negative emotions will run from depression and pain to new pleasures.

Long ago, I tried to understand why some people drink a lot but do not become alcoholics, while others initially hold on but eventually become slaves to the green serpent.

Then tragic changes occur — the person ages and weakens rapidly. Degradation happens very quickly. Then I understood what turns an ordinary person into an alcoholic. Their main goal becomes intoxication, alcoholic euphoria. Usually, people drink to slow down consciousness and open feelings, to make it easier to communicate and be sincere, i.e., the goal is communication. An alcoholic's goals are shifted. Their main goal is continuous positive emotion.

If a woman loses her aspiration towards God and violates the second commandment, she becomes jealous, resentful, and despondent. If she exacerbates her condition with lust and indulges in alcohol, the process of soul degeneration accelerates.

Alcohol inhibits higher feelings and converts higher energy into sexual. A person's fascination with alcohol makes them lustful, turning them into a slave to their desires.

Such a person is much more likely to resort to theft and murder. And the stronger their energy is directed towards the animalistic nature, the more prominently their children will display lust, deceit, greed, and envy.

If a person begins to worship spiritual and material values, the process of decay can only be stopped through strict limitation of alcohol and sex.

A strict ban on theft. Inevitable punishment for murder. A person can be forced to comply with administrative and criminal laws — it is impossible to force them to follow the moral law. If there is no faith in God in society, morality is lost, and the destruction of the soul can lead to material goods, educating a person becomes impossible.

It is profitable for believers and moral people to be in a society where secular laws are subordinate to spiritual laws, derived from them, where care for a person's soul is more important than care for their body.

Sometimes to save the soul, the body dies. If you pray to a loved one as to a God, to survive, they must offend, insult, humiliate, betray, or die. Recently, there has been a breakdown of the family in many countries. In still intact families, love triangles often arise.
