It is ridiculous and humiliating for a person to be a prisoner of anyone’s desire - be it the desire to eat, or sleep, or take out a grudge on someone else! Listen, man! Your desires - be your master! Do not be a despicable slave of base passions! Pythagoras of Samos Harm, Spirituality, Wisdom

You need to steal less! … Spirituality is important. When it is a shame to steal or deceive.

Sincere faith, if there is a lot of it and it lasts for so many centuries, has the ability not only to accumulate spiritual energy, but also to acquire materiality.
If you were engaged in spiritual practice, you would know that there is no such thing as “attention” at all. Like everything else in the human mind, it's just a witty play on words. We call the word “attention” the fact that a certain process occurs in consciousness. Let's say that a certain object exists for a long time as a central segment of the field of perception. The medium first removes this segment from other people's minds. And then he does what he wants with him.

A person must be freely moral, which means that he must also be given some freedom to be immoral. Vladimir Soloviev
No one can be completely free until everyone is free. No one can be completely moral until everyone is still moral. No one can be completely happy until everyone is still happy. Herbert Spencer
Act in accordance with such a maxim, which at the same time can itself become a universal law. Immanuel Kant

Spiritual development always follows the same scenario.
At first everything was fine with a person, then everything became bad for him, and then he begins to sort out this “bad” in order to again come to the point that everything is good again.
Only in the first case he did not understand why he felt good, and in the second he not only understands, he also knows how to build this “good”.
Spiritual development is always associated with problems that suddenly begin to arise. They have always been there, people just didn’t notice it until a certain moment, but now they started to notice it.
And up to a certain point, he didn’t give a damn about these problems, but now he knows that these problems allow him to move.
Always, when the dam is opened, the dirtiest wave comes first, and then calm, clean water. Withstand the first wave - a clean one will come.
There is a common understanding that the essence of spiritual life lies in working for pennies.
The more spiritually developed a person is, the hungrier and thinner he should be. And when they talk about some tall people who are somewhere out there, at the highest levels of spiritual development, I immediately want to ask: have you seen them?
Have you seen those people you are thinking about? Do you think you are not there? Do you think you are worse than them? You think your life is “out there somewhere.” You think that those prophets who exist are not here.
You think that spiritually developed people are not those who are next to you, but those who are in Tibet, in India. All you are trying to do is simply remember who you really are and what you are doing here.
After each of you remembers, only at that moment will you understand where you are, where your life is, and that you are lost in someone else's knowledge. That's what it's called.
Knowledge is sometimes foreign . Knowledge is sometimes unnecessary. The problem with people is that they have learned to read. I think this is the problem. I learned to read, read a book: “Look, what a great guy! How beautifully he wrote! Then the second book, and then the third, and then the fifth, and then I forgot where I started. And then I got confused. And then I decided that what I had read was mine, I know it, because I read it.
I know and I have read – these are two different concepts, they lie on different levels, because “I know” is what I was able to apply in my life and achieved success. This is “I know.” Remember once and for the rest of your life that knowledge is what you were able to apply in your life and achieve success. Everything else is information.
You have a lot of information in your head, you read a lot, you saw a lot, but only what you were able to apply and succeed is knowledge. The amount of information in your head does not mean that you know how to use it.
Enlightenment is a special state in which life becomes clear and obvious down to the smallest detail..
This is a rise above life, when a person sees not individual parts of life, but the entire volume of the world around him - both external and internal, and knows exactly how his path runs and at what speed he needs to move.
A person gets a clear picture of what his life should look like and what he should do. He knows exactly what is right, he strictly follows the plan, which he sees in full view and does not contradict it.
And everything around begins to adapt to this plan, because a person not only knows that a thought is material, he sees it and clearly knows how to distribute thoughts in the order in which they will act in life for the benefit of the person himself.
Enlightenment is the arrival of a person to his normal, ordinary state, the end of the wandering of the mind. Man has crossed the desert of his mind.

Quotes on the topic “Spiritual Wealth”
This article will focus on people who deceptively consider themselves highly spiritual.
Intellectuality and highly spirituality are revealed (revealed, not increased) through the production of cultural and intellectual values. Through production, not through consumption. That is, someone created a picture, someone created a film, someone wrote a book. There are people who visit one exhibition or read one book and begin to elevate themselves spiritually, saying, “I was there, I read that,” and you are sitting here and have never even been to the theater. There is no mention in history of a single great visitor to galleries, honored reader of books or viewer of films. No one really cares what you read or what exhibitions you go to. You've read Shakespeare, yes, well done, but anyone can do it. Anyone can read a book, watch a movie. No one cares what you read or watched. Now, if you yourself wrote a play like Shakespeare’s, that would be a different story.
There are very enthusiastic “personalities”. For example, they believe that if they drink real coffee and you drink instant coffee, then you are living wrong. They may know the spelling of the Russian language, but you could forget one rule and that’s it, for them you will become stupid and uneducated. They drink expensive whiskey, and you drink cheap beer. In their opinion, this elevates them and they do not want to think that in terms of harmfulness it is the same. Nobody cares what you drink or what you eat. Some will say something like this: “I drink real Chinese tea, which was collected and processed by hand. I’m special, I’m not like you.” Uplifted? It's time to drop from heaven to earth. There are billions of Chinese. You are an average Chinese person. Be proud.
For example, you write a book and drink alcohol. That's it - you're an alcoholic, because you drink. That is, in their opinion, you should always think about the book, and not about alcohol, because it clouds your mind. It doesn’t even dawn on them that they can combine these things or do them at different times. They are not embarrassed by the fact that, for example, many great poets and musicians drank, slept around, smoked and took drugs. For example, Pushkin was a womanizer, Yesenin drank like hell and swore, Vysotsky drank and smoked, Kurt, Ray took drugs, etc., etc. It’s worth asking one more question: can a person know a lot about poetry if he goes to the toilet every day? It doesn’t matter what a person does with himself, the main thing is what contribution he made to society/humanity, if we are talking about spirituality.
Those who actually contributed something to the intellectual and cultural treasury of humanity have always considered themselves simple people. Just like everyone else. They did not exalt themselves and did not label others. They communicate with everyone on equal terms and do not consider themselves an “elite.” And all because they don’t need to “appear” to be someone, they already “are”. They can walk around in torn jeans, like Steve Jobs, or in a jacket and tie and an expensive watch. Live in a huge building on the ocean or in an ordinary house with a small garden. They do not care. They don’t need to prove anything with clothes or status, they have already done it in action. And they continue to do so.
