And in us, these qualities develop precisely when we live by the mind, then when we live by the soul, meaning the heart, and then when we live by the Spirit — it is all like connecting to different Wi-Fi points. That is, whatever is turned on in you, that is what you connect to, but you hardly notice it physically, though it is there. And I begin to understand that The Mother of God is the material world, from which I often disconnected since childhood and connected to some spiritual world, meaning to God, and that The Mother of God is not bad and that she is not the society. And that evil society I always spoke about is something third — it is that serpent-tempter. That’s how it is. That’s how it turned out, how I saw it. And it turns out that I saw that there are people who live in the system, in the matrix, in The Mother of God — like, for example, a good, decent boy or girl from a respectable family where all the parents are doctors, and this person is also studying to become a doctor. They have a modest, decent life, raised in a well-mannered, good family — this is such a person. And it is as if they are within the system of The Mother of God. But now there is another phenomenon when a person connects to this serpent. And from this serpent, you become so corrupted that you start wanting to be a freak, rejecting family, family values, stable work. You start seeking this so-called freedom, self-love for yourself alone. You start changing people like gloves, changing life like gloves, everything like that. And all of this is precisely the erasing of all boundaries, total chaos. And this chaos is so well hidden — this serpent-tempter presents it as freedom. And do you understand the paradox? That indeed, when people lived in the socio-material world, meaning in The Mother of God, they reached a level — we are living in such a time now — where they were supposed to free themselves from this material system, where social and material values dominated, and transition to other values, spiritual ones, meaning to connect to a new system, for example, to God — this is another system. And when people began — when The Mother of God started to collapse — looking for a way out of it, they did not choose the bright spiritual path, meaning God, but instead — also under the pretext of freedom — chose the temptation of the devil, meaning the serpent. And all these people followed the serpent, shouting that “this is freedom, self- realization, self-improvement, I do what I want, live where I want.” But in reality, they chose chaos. That’s how interesting all of this works.
And it turns out that this dark force — again, I am now the hero of the third
