Everything that was predicted in the Scriptures many hundreds of years ago is actually happening now. We live in difficult times. Today chaos and demonic forces are running rampant throughout the world. There is no other way to describe what we see around us every day, what the news tells us. There are conflicts, wars, deaths, tragedies, bankruptcies, crimes, prisons. So many horrors and catastrophes happen every day. Some will say that everything is going around in circles or that it has always been this way. But I am living now, not then. There are many lies in history and we will never know the real truth. There have always been wars, conflicts, and criminals, but in terms of the destructive effect on humanity, in terms of the terrible cruelty with which all this is being done in our time, no time can compare to the present. Because in our time, people's ability to do bad things has increased. It is possible to commit a crime from a distance, using computer technology, modern machinery, psychological techniques, modern scientific data, and even rockets. People are crazy about money, power, or vanity and will do anything for it. They believe only in money as if they would never die. Many tragedies and crimes can only be explained by evil. The truly good people are in the minority. This should motivate everyone to believe because the Holy Books say that when these things begin to take place, the end of the world is near, and everyone will be judged for the life he or she has lived. All that remains for believers, regardless of the circumstances around them, is to remain committed to their faith to the end and every day. It is necessary to be patient. It's one of the most important characteristics required by the Scriptures.
The sooner a person realizes what is happening now, the sooner he sees where the truth is, the better his chances of not falling into such devilry, and the better his chances of salvation.
There will probably be many dissenting or confused people who have read this book. This is normal. All of us are constantly in different states of mind, different moods, different emotions, and different circumstances throughout our lives. I will speak for myself. Everything I write here came to me in moments when I was as calm as possible when I thought about nothing but the meaning of life, about death, about what will happen next. When I was in a state of complete abstraction from my day-to-day problems and the hustle and bustle of life. The same thoughts came to me in moments of deepest stress, when I was ill or severely traumatized, in difficult circumstances, after a serious illness, in times of loss and despair. Helplessness, humility, and the realization that you cannot influence the situation make you look at the world with different eyes: impartial, humble, not proud. The need to prove anything to anyone disappears. There comes the realization of the need to apologize for everything, to forgive everyone, and the desire to just live, not to prove anything. I do not think that I am something special, on the contrary, I believe, I am even sure that healthy human nature is like this for everyone. The state of the soul, mind, and body at such moments is as close as possible to the true, right state. It leads us to the right path. There comes humility, purification through suffering, or through abstraction and consciousness. And much more often a person comes to such a state through suffering, not through consciousness.
Have you ever asked yourself why? We are created in such a way that we can see the truth and the fallacy of our sinful lives in a very powerful way at a certain moment. This is the only way a person can learn and clearly realize the truth. To see the truth of our being, the essence of our Creator.
If you do not realize it on your own, it will come in severe trials. There are such trials in the life of absolutely every person who has not independently come to an understanding of God, His laws, and truth. In the end, death awaits us all — is it not a trial, the last one in life, the last test and event in this life? Why put ourselves through these trials when the truth can be felt, understood, and realized in calm circumstances? The Holy Books prescribe eternal torment in addition to suffering in this life for those who have not believed and realized even during such hardships of fate.
If a person is tempted by grief, he is more likely to turn to God; if he is successful in life and has an easy life, then he is less likely.
This book will be more easily understood by those who have had trials in their lives or are in that time. By those who, at least for a minute, have a clear understanding of the hour of our death in this world, the insignificance and finiteness, the mortality of everything that exists in it, what is the rightness, the truth. For it is said in the sacred texts that without the store of deeds that God has commanded us, all is vanity.
