You can fill your world at will:

good or evil,
greed or unselfishness,
aggression or peace,
indifference or mercy;

Evil is good
Greed is generosity
Lies are true.

Better to give happiness to someone close.

Better to tie a friend to yourself with kindness,

Than to liberate humanity from fetters.

Omar Khayyam

You can shower another person. With stones or flowers. Depending on what you have in stock. If there are stones in the soul, then stones. If flowers ... then flowers. And this is not the man. It's about you!

Every morning, when you wake up, start with the thoughts:

“Today I was lucky - I woke up.
I am alive, I have this precious human life, and I will not waste it.
I will direct all my energy to inner development,
To open your heart to others
And achieve enlightenment for the benefit of all beings.
I will only cherish good thoughts for others.
I won't get angry or think bad things about them.
With all my might I will be of benefit to others. "

Special good (Christian parable)

We must love everyone.
But if you can't, at least wish everyone well.
Spiritual instructions of Elder Gabriel (Urgebadze)

Practice kindness all day for all the people around you, and you will realize that you are already in heaven.

It can't be too late for a good deed.

Sometimes people's own failures and the blessings of people who receive them from the visible side undeservedly induce some to think that success is due to the level of arrogance and cunning of a person, that morality is a relic of the past that inhibits prosperity in worldly life. And while many may agree with this, they only see one side of the coin. In fact, truly good people are generously rewarded by Allah both in this and in the next world. In the Quran, He says:

(Surah "al-Zumar", "The Crowds", ayah 10)

But it is also important to know the meaning of the word "good". Because every society, culture has its own idea of ​​good and evil. As in a parable. An Indian is asked what is good and evil. And he replies: “If I take his boat from a neighbor, it’s good. But if he takes mine, then it is evil. " However, there are common beliefs, such as being polite, helping those in need, being patient and caring, are seen as good almost everywhere. Allah Almighty gives us a more precise definition in the Qur'an:

“Godliness is not about turning your faces east and west. But the pious is the one who believed in Allah, on the Last Day, in angels, in Scripture, in prophets, who distributed property, despite his love for him, relatives, orphans, the poor, travelers and beggars, spent it on freeing slaves, performed prayer, paid zakat, observed contracts after their conclusion, showed patience in need, in illness and during battle. These are the ones that are true. Such are the God-fearing "(surah "al Bakara", "The Cow", ayah 177)

According to this verse, fear of the Almighty is considered good, the remembrance of Him, the Day of Judgment, as well as good treatment of others will be part of good deeds. It is narrated from the words of Abu Zarr, may Allah be pleased with them both, that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "Fear Allah, wherever you are, after a bad deed, do good, which will erase the bad, and adhere to good behavior in relations with people."(Tirmidhi) The Almighty claims in the Qur'an that He loves those who do good according to their religion, those who fear Allah and that they will be rewarded with reciprocal (but great) good:

“Allah has given them a reward in this world and a wonderful reward in the Hereafter. After all, Allah loves those who do good "(Surah Al Imran, The Family of Imran, ayah 148) Another verse says:

“Those who have done good in this world will be rewarded with good. And the last abode will be even better. How beautiful is the Abode of the God-fearing! "(Surah "An-Nahl", "Bees", ayah 30)

It is intended for those who do good, can make concessions, seeking the pleasure of Allah. The Almighty gives such people good news regarding their worldly and eternal life, the message of an increase in their well-being, both spiritual and material. Prophets are examples of such prosperity. For example, the prophet Suleiman, who was given the kingdom, the power that the Almighty did not give to anyone except him. Prophet Yusuf, peace be upon him, who received the treasures of Egypt. The Almighty mentions the blessings sent down by Him in relation to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) in the verse:

"And (didn't He) find you (oh Muhammad) poor and then enrich you (giving you a large family and victories, as well as contentment and patience)?"(surah "ad-Dukha", "Morning", ayah 8)

The Almighty bestows these blessings not only on the prophets or the righteous of previous generations - He rewards good for the good of everyone, at any time:

"Believing men and women who have acted righteously, We will certainly give a wonderful life and will reward the best that they have done."(surah "an-Nahl", "Bees", ayah 97)

But the believer first of all strives for the benefits of the next life. Examples of this were the first Muslims who left their property, family, relatives for the sake of religion. Soon the Almighty gave them power and wealth, but this only increased their gratitude to Allah.

The Almighty increases the reward for those who do good

The Almighty says in the Qur'an:

“Whoever appears with a good deed will receive a tenfold reward. And whoever appears with an evil deed will receive only the appropriate reward, and they will not be treated unjustly. "(surah "al Anam", "Cattle", ayah 160)

In surah "an-Nisa" ("Women"): "Allah does not commit injustice, even weighing a speck of dust, and if the deed turns out to be good, then He will multiply it and give from Himself a great reward."(ayah 40) The most striking manifestation of the generosity of Allah is that He multiplies good deeds, repaying them in the next life, the benefits of which last forever.

“For those who have done good, the Best (Paradise) is prepared, and more will be added to them (they will have the opportunity to look at the Face of Allah). There will be no dust or humiliation on their faces. They are the inhabitants of Paradise, in which they will abide forever. "(Surah "Yunus", ayat 20) Eternal bliss for good deeds in worldly life, promised by the Almighty, is the most striking indicator of His mercy and generosity to His servants.

The greatest beauty, strength, and wealth are really useless; but a good heart surpasses everything in the world.

Praise for kindness is only worthy of a person who has the strength of character to sometimes be evil; otherwise, kindness most often speaks only of inaction or lack of will.

With the opening of God, the world was good. The current one - no, he is about to perish, and the reason for the badness of this world is the fall of people. The world is not angry in itself, it has become so out of our anger. Therefore, the more really good people there are in this world, the better the world will be. He, of course, is still doomed, but it depends on us how quickly the imperfect world turns into a perfect hell. At the very least, Christians are called to be a brake on the degradation of the world, because the work of faith is through personal efforts to realize on earth the desired and expected Kingdom of Christ (paradise). To carry out as an act of personal will, faith and personal action, since "faith without works is dead" ...

NSgood -Towhat a good apple

Everyone, in the circumstances offered by life, does what he can. And if it doesn't, then either cannot, does not know how, or does not want, orwhat is required is generally foundbeyond his comprehension... Therefore, it is absurd to demand from another: be as I think it is correct. 1) If we ourselves are truly correct (righteous), then we must share righteousness with others instead ofby theirclaims... To love is to say to another: be happy, not demand: make me happy! And this often happens: there is not enough intelligence to understand the neighbor, but there is always enough conceit to condemn the incomprehensible. And, of course, if I don't understand someone, then he is guilty of this, not me ...

Man (including myself) is too weak, because righteousness is always the Lord in us, and He is love. Give love to another and you will never be wrong, because giving lovemyou increasemthe degree of integrity of the other, oneself and the world as a whole. 2) The Lord lives as a whole (because "whoever is guilty of one thing is guilty of everything" -fornot intact) and He himself takes care of others when we serve Him and our neighbor. Integrity itself observes the righteousness of its parts. The parts should not follow the other parts - it is enough to listen to the voice of the Whole - that is, the voice of the Shepherd Christ, who commands to love your neighbor, and not to judge. To love - that is, to serve the good of another, to be ready to become a support to anyone in need in a difficult situation.

The need of others, heartfelt participation in it, gives grace and the most accurate answers to everyday questions. Complicity(it is -happiness)generates a ray of truth that illuminates everything around- to the very depths... Empathy for the other includes the measurement of truth in the soul, so that through sincere and active participation in the other, one can know God, because He hurries to meet everyone who cares about others. This is what it means to be a good person.

NSgood is an equal (not defective, not spoiled) personand therefore happy... Like a good apple ..... One should not be considered a good person just because he smiles sweetly at the moment, because in a different situation the same person can cause not only pain, but also harm, and unconsciously - not knowing what he is doing, if he has not become completely himself, if he has not grown to his fullness in Christ, if he is accidental in the sense that he does not act consciously, but situationally ( “Do not know what they are doing"). You should also not be considered a bad person just for the fact that he is not smiling at you now ...

The one who does evil often does not even realize that he is cruel. Does not see. People are especially cruel when they think that they are "for the truth", not understanding how great work is necessary just to understand what is true, where is truth, and so on. He grabs the first truth that comes to his mind and creates many lies under its cover (because it is not intact). And integrity can only be gained by loving others, serving others, accepting others in God.

Happiness is something to be shared

So, a good person is an equal person (like a good apple), and therefore a happy person. A happiness is something that should be shared, otherwise you can become a bad person... In general, something good, everyone needs it, if it is available, appeals to its owner: share it with someone who does not have it. And you must obey, without fail - to be happy.

Possible questions:

1) What do you mean? Happiness is a very personal moment, and not everyone is able to share it, because it is so different ...

Divide - a claim, a claim to another, and when sharing- you give, but do not demand(proceeding from the needs of the other). Whatever happiness is, it must be shared. If you are rich, find those whom you can help, who need help: rich in money - help with money, rich in spirit - warm others in soul, spiritually - this is the seed of the spirit (here it should be recalled that the spiritually poor is rich in spirit, because he is rich not in himself, but in Christ).

A concrete example, let's say, is this. You have a good family, happiness at home, and you have a lonely girlfriend. Do not forget about it on the days of the holiday. It is not necessary to call her to yourself (lonely people sometimes do not like this, they become even more lonely - in comparison), but find warmth, time, words, a gift. Each specific case requires a specific, non-schematic solution. The only thing that can be said at all is that there are no schemes, only live participation, lively attention, live interaction.

2) What does it mean “a person equal to himself: maximally realizing his capabilities and desires, or, conversely, holding them back within some framework?

A simple example: will a car that has been filled with expensive wine go? No. And filled with cheap gasoline - it will go. Because he is equal to himself, filled with gasoline, while being filled with good 1 gasoline can use all his "talents" as efficiently as possible.

3) Not everyone is ready to accept you, your happiness, which you share. People often give up what life gives them now, today. And therefore, misunderstanding occurs, and instead of the warm emotions of accepting someone else's happiness, other people feel anger, sadness and despondency ...

Of course, everything is not easy. The question can be reduced to understanding what to give, when, how and why. After all, we often want to "suck" ourselves, or we want to use another for selfish purposes (it is nice to give). The fact of the matter is that it is necessary hear the need of another, and already from this hearing to act, and hearing is in principle inaccessible to the selfish ear and gaze. Pure attention to the other, not distorted by selfishness, only gives a chance to carry out the act of giving for real. That is, darena should be preceded byheartA meeting... But even here there is no guarantee that everything will be smooth. Anything can happen. It is important to be pure in intentions, because everything worthy itself, as it were, adheres in layers only to purity ...

Unselfishness is not enough

However, disinterestedness alone is not enough, there is no positive content in it 2. Selflessness (denial of the presence of self-interest) requires a positive addition in the form of the fulfillment of any of the life-affirming principles (creativity) 3. It is imperative to create something (internal or external) - who is interested in something and can do it.

Natural dturnover- not good, kindness still needs to be converted into good... It is not so easy, and not everyone knows how ... Sometimes kindness bears bad fruit (when it is incorrectly applied to the circumstances of life). Or it remains sterile, which is also not good. Kindness- advance payment, good- salary for labor.

The life process is an amazing converter, some with its help even manage to transform their emptiness into good. And the great, like alchemists, are capable of turning evil towards good, embedding it in a network of good relations (for this, such a network must exist).

It is in this sense that our social principle should be built into good social relations, we must jointly produce not only some goods, but also good... After all, few people are capable of independent good deeds. And experience shows that in our spontaneous social impulses, we tend to commit self-destructive actions for the same reason: kindness is not good. Not skillful (or, conversely, skillful - in the case of political strategists), kindness can easily be converted to evil by misdirecting it.

A naturally good person can be drawn into evil deeds and made an instrument of evil so that he does not even notice it. Or rather, when he notices, the evil deed will have already been done.

The people are not a crowd of people

The same is the case with the human community: in order to be a people, it is not enough just to exist, you still need to work hard to be realized spiritually. St. John Chrysostom is a good idea that the people are saints (from among the people), and not a crowd of people.

The crowd is a beast, we know that well, the crowd is inhuman and irresponsible.

If we imagine that a people is a kind of a single organism, in which individual people are its cells (i.e., parts of a single whole), then general suspicion will seem strange when looking at another. Imagine what would become of our body if our cells did not do their job, serving the good of the whole, but constantly suspected each other of some dishonesty, disloyalty, or, conversely, loyalty to the wrong one.

And what business does our cells have? Loving the whole in every single part of this whole(and with each individual cell, the Whole will figure it out 4)... To love is to promote good. This is how we should treat each other, and not look out for enemies. If we are not our own enemies ...

And let's not talk about the head, which should think about the benefits of the whole and take care of the well-being of healthy cells, not cancer cells. It is obvious.

And it is just as obvious how abnormal the world we live in and which we have created is. This is what the biblical words mean, that the world lies in evil. “We know that we are of God and that the whole world lies in wickedness” (1 John 5:19).

And what is the West to us, by and large? He is only true to himself, it is worthy of respect. Are we true to ourselves? Without the consent of the world to lawlessness, the West would not have done anything bad. As one American journalist puts it, America does it "because it can""Onor- doing, not chatting ...».

Fear of offending another

Observing the excitement around the elections, seeing how people quarrel with old friends on the basis of elections, observing great joy or great sorrow in people, all the time I remember the famous aphorism of Kozma Prutkov:

If you read the inscription "buffalo" on an elephant's cage, do not believe your eyes.

The most relevant words. They must be put on like glasses, and look at everything through this aphorism. The truth, of course, cannot be found this way, but it may at least diminish passions from scratch. All the same, after all, everything is not what it seems.

Rudeness has become the norm - this is our first trouble. I watched a bad scene in the store, after which I wanted to remind myself and others that there is no truth in the world that would allow us to humiliate another person. Be right a thousand times over, but don't dare to offend a person (right or not - it doesn't matter). Fear of offending another- this is a good fear, it is akin to the fear of God. It is the fear to offend, not to receive for the insult. The worst thing is to offend the unrequited, the one who cannot stand up for himself - a beggar, weak, small ... Or, say, a boss who is also not in an equal position with you (there are many behind him, and his burden is different). I'm not talking about servility, not about lust for power or a caste approach (God forbid, think so!). I am only talking about respect for another person, without whom there is neither the other nor me. We both disappear into the mud of pride when we forget about this important rule - to honor the face of God in a person, regardless of anything. And if so, then respect for a person extends to enemies. 5 Again, this is not about respect for an atrocity, crime, or some other abomination, but about respect for a person. "But I tell you: love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who offend you and persecute you."(Matthew 5:44).

Blessing is giving a person a whole person (Christ). These are not emotions and gestures, but the structuring of tissues - power and action.

Trust in God makes a person careless about himself, because no one can love him as much as God. Therefore, he who believes in God can afford the luxury of generosity. Likewise, self-righteousness is easily supplanted by a child's love for God, who alone teaches a person the correct - free from passions - love, which gives strength to love even enemies in Christ.

B shine light on everyone who is not light for you -
that is the answer. The only answer is 6.

1 Good for him, but not in the sense that corresponds to his “wishlist” (like “I want to be the queen of the sea”), but in the sense that it corresponds to the existing mechanism (and hence the idea of ​​it).

2 This idea must be thought out to the end - perhaps the liberated opportunities give some kind of their positive content, which is not taken into account here.

3 This is what is meant when they say “a good person- not a profession. " True, the profession is related only to external doing, and it can also be internal- "A career in the impossible", in the words of Goethe ("The meaning of the earthly path is a career in the impossible").According to Plato, "everything that causes the transition from nonexistence to being is creativity."

4 “If you want to become kind, become strict with yourself and do not kill others with your severity. Be strict with yourself, but God looks after others ”(Monk Simeon of Athos).

For the Lotos Publishing House, the theme of all-round human development is the main one. Therefore, we can offer you more books with a similar theme: "The Evening Party", "The Way of the Dancing Soul".

And yet, you ask: "Why is it free?" Because true love is not a blind passion, let alone a manic passion. Not evaluative love, which determines the presence of certain external signs of beauty or intelligence, and then, according to the price list, gives out pleasure. It is love-acceptance of another as he is, with all his merits and demerits. True love allows you to see your beloved as he wants to be and helps to do everything that he would become!

Actually, this question becomes urgent for a person who is in a difficult situation. Where his usual ideas about life values ​​collapse ... You can very simply check yourself. What is your purpose and meaning of life "from the heart"? Or are they for self-justification, and their own comfort? How does it feel to wake up? Do you feel the joy of a new day? The arrival of new opportunities for self-realization in life?

To make it easy and understandable for you, we will not use abstract reasoning. And instead of considering the meaning of life as a whole, let us turn to a simple, modern person. This question becomes the main one for a person who is in a difficult situation. Where his usual ideas about life values ​​collapse.

But let's start first - from childhood. Are you interested in understanding how the purpose and meaning of a person's life are formed? In the beginning, the child naturally takes over everything from the parents and the meaning of life too. He, of course, does not know this word, he feels everything. No matter how perfect the parents are, for the child their meaning of life is the "start". Life changes, and the abilities of the little person differ from those of the parents. Therefore, at first the question of the meaning of life is not raised, it is simple and understandable as breathing. Especially if a person is creative. He creates and does not understand the goals and meanings of life, they are intuitively clear and understandable to him.

There are also categories of successful people or people who think that they know everything about life and it is pointless to waste time on “nonsense”. But if the meaning of life, received from the parents, is questioned. Or this meaning is impossible to realize. Then ask yourself the question: "Why live?" - and perhaps from idle thinking it will become vital! This question is not mainly related to human survival. Its main motive is self-realization, an inner feeling of joy, need and importance.

You can very easily check yourself. What is your purpose and meaning of life "from the heart"? Or are they for self-justification, and their own comfort? How does it feel to wake up? Do you feel the joy of a new day? The arrival of new opportunities for self-realization in life?

It's just that many "smart" people consider this issue purely speculatively, without taking into account the huge reserves of their subconscious. You can rely on your developed intuition, ignoring simple logic. And you need to harmonize your mind and intuition so that they complement each other.

As an example, I highly recommend an amazingly deep exposition of a life crisis and a search for the meaning of life in V. Chepovoy's book "Crossroads". A successful entrepreneur falls seriously ill and realizes how illusory his plans for life were. Death is near, and a person begins to understand again how and why to live! After reading this book, you can better understand your life. What is the main thing in it, and what is the mirage in which you are accustomed to believe!

You may be interested in similar articles and books. Where simply and with examples, the authors show how to recover, find oneself in life: "Veterinar", "The Way of a Dancing Soul", "Sensei",.

We all want happiness. But bad luck, we imagine it differently. And our happiness is often seen differently by our parents and loved ones. Therefore, there are many conflicts on this issue. It is important to clarify this situation, how to be happy, not disturbing, but restoring peace with your family and friends. Usually, two options are known: we take care of our loved ones and forget about our happiness, or vice versa, we think only about our happiness and relations with our loved ones are cooled. He plays with this situation simply and with examples.I. Tonevitsky in the book "The Way of the Dancing Soul".

After many years of illness, one of the relatives in the family decides to recover forever. And now there are a lot of self-healing systems. When all that is required of you is patience and willpower in carrying out cleansing procedures, fasting, etc. It would seem that relatives should only be glad. But in a person everything changes: the daily routine, attitude towards people and in general towards life. And more a person's worldview than his methods for health, strain his loved ones.

Add to this the dependence of the patient on the family and a sense of their own worth by relatives. Relatives who understand that they could not get out of such a situation - they would not have enough willpower. They feel inferior, which does not allow them to rejoice at the successes of the former patient. Relatives, who understand that they could do the same, sincerely rejoice at the relative's recovery. A similar situation of relations with loved ones develops in other areas of life.

And so, we saw why relatives react to a person who wants to change his life: get well, become happy, etc. It is equally important to understand how we react in such situations.

An example from the book:

The author had his own affairs scheduled for the weekend. The wife's parents call and ask him to come to help at the dacha. This is the point of choice. Igor was not at a loss, although he wanted to explain "who is the boss in the house." He told his family that he appreciates and respects them. He wants to help them and may come, for example, next week. Just confidence in your decision and respect for the requests of relatives! The author would have looked for a good reason for refusal before, he was nervous and worried that he was letting people down! This time he was calm and the relatives were not offended by the refusal. At the same time, Igor helped his wife with cleaning the apartment, because I managed to do my job.

Summarize. If you understand what you need for happiness, then you don’t need to sacrifice it, justifying yourself with everyday and other concerns. The secret is flexibility in planning your day! You also need to take care of your loved ones, without prejudice to your happiness. Then, instead of tension and conflicts in the past, you will strengthen your happiness and share it, helping your loved ones and other people! You will be able to be an example to others in a harmonious combination of the interests of your own and other people! And then gradually, your personal happiness will be inseparable from the happiness of the people around you.

Yousef was not like his peers and even brothers. He was very silent and did not take part in noisy children's games. From childhood, people noticed piety in him. He did not remember his father well, but he loved his mother very much. Father's fate was tragic. Once he was summoned to an army gathering at the church. And after that no one saw him. A couple of years later, Yusef's mother remarried. The stepfather became the first mentor for the boy.

Let's start with the biography of the saint. He was born in 1828 in Lebanon. Yousef's mother, Brigitte, was a deeply religious woman. The mother had two brothers, Christian hermits. The brothers visited their sister and probably influenced their impressionable nephew with their stories.

It is known that Brigitte was strict and could not be distracted when she prayed to God. People recall that the entire Makloof family was very devout. The Holy Virgin Mary was especially revered. They observed the fasts and attended the local church. The family lived like all local peasants. But still she stood out for her hard work, asceticism and religiosity.

Yousef was not like his peers and even brothers. He was very silent and did not take part in noisy children's games. From childhood, people noticed piety in him. He did not remember his father well, but he loved his mother very much. Father's fate was tragic. Once he was summoned to an army gathering at the church. And after that no one saw him. A couple of years later, Yusef's mother remarried. The stepfather became the first mentor for the boy.

As a boy, he found a secluded grotto in the mountains and often prayed to God there. For this, the surrounding children nicknamed him "Saint". At 23, he came to the monastery of St. Marona. Withstood the difficult labor of monasticism. After 6 years, he was ordained to the priesthood. And then he was a hermit for 23 years. Died on November 24, 1898.

It was a harsh winter and Charbel's body, wrapped in a rough cloth, was laid in a cave, walled up the entrance. And so, with many witnesses, they open the cave. And it turns out that the body of the saint lies in the coffin. He seems to be asleep. All clothes are saturated with fragrant pink ichor oozing from the body. Since then, it is believed that everything that the saint touches is sacred. Moreover, there are many similar descriptions in the books about him. Many people are healed just by looking at a photo of him or by holding a photo next to them! In the photo on the left - the incorruptible body of Saint Charbel, In this form, the body of the saint is already 120 years old. If you want to learn more about the phenomenon of St. Charbel, then A. Bayukansky wrote two more books:

A new book about health has been published! Review to Candidate of Medical Sciences, Associate Professor Eliseev Oleg Ivanovich

F.F. Wheat is a unique person. Most people stop feeling the results of their accomplishments. And what is important, Fyodor Fedorovich himself went through troubles, which was considered an incurable disease. And now knowing from my own experience - what kind of trials and suffering in a serious illness, it helps other people to recover. It's not even about recovery. It is more important that the person understands the causes of their illness. The author of the book "Bless you", while compiling the book relied on folk methods of treatment. And what is equally important, considers the causes and prevention of diseases.

The understanding of health, like evolution, does not stand still. Therefore, the example of F. Pshenichny, who did not stop at his merits and experience, is very important and interesting. A wide range of knowledge and experience of the author allows him to approach not only individually to each person, but also multidimensionally.

My work is treatment and I know how complicated medicine has become. If the patient does not want to get well, it is impossible to help him! And for the patient to understand, he needs to explain in simple words and the language of the soul what is happening to him. It makes me happy when a person realizes that part of the responsibility for his illness lies with him. Then the process of knowing oneself begins, admitting one's mistakes. I wish the readers of this book good luck on the path of knowing yourself. Whatever the richest experience and knowledge you have, let it not be an obstacle in new ways and possibilities of knowing yourself, life and improving its quality!

Review by the head of department. infectious diseases NMU named after A.A. Bogomolets,
Doctor of Medical Sciences O.A. Golubovskaya

How can you explain the increased interest in alternative medicine today? A crisis in public health care? Partially yes. But knowledge about the nature of diseases, the interaction of various factors that cause this or that pathology is very imperfect and is based on our rather primitive idea. This is due, on the one hand, to the imperfection of knowledge about the nature of man, his potential capabilities, on the other hand, to the imperfection of any field of knowledge, including medical ones.

For example, modern virology knows about 5 thousand viruses, but only 70% have been studied! The remaining 30% is studied by science, however, their role in the nature of human and animal diseases is unknown.

In addition, it is assumed that by now, only about 15% of the living microorganisms on Earth have been characterized. We learn about new discoveries every day. And interestingly, many of them confirm the experience of traditional healers. Those. alternative medicine is a truly inexhaustible storehouse of new ideas for both scientists and those in need.

Now on the book market there is a huge number of sources with medical recommendations. Compassion for people "drowning" in this abundance was the reason for the creation of this book. FF Pshenichny made an easy-to-use selection of recipes and gave information about original health-improving concepts. The systems of foreign and domestic sources, Tibetan and Oriental medicine, made it possible to write simply and clearly about cleansing the body.

The author of the book "Be Healthy" pays special attention to the individual selection of the recommended means. He managed to show the integrity and relationship between spiritual and physical food. The book tells about the inextricable connection between the spiritual and the physical in a person, in his earthly life and the main postulate of medicine, so relevant in our time - "Noli nocere" (Do no harm), runs like a red thread.

I want to add, be careful with any recommendations for improving your body. Remember to pay attention and prudent consistency in any wellness treatment.

In addition, we want something more special to eat deliciously and look beautiful for the holiday! Some kind of zest. Now is the time of mass production and mass consumption. It is getting harder and harder to find something unusual. There is less and less variety around, so interesting creative ideas and solutions are gaining more value. We would like to offer you one of such solutions. Glowing balls are beautiful in themselves, but more importantly, you can make them yourself, at minimal cost.

The balloons themselves are a wonderful decoration of the holiday. They are already of various colors and shapes and sizes. Now you have a real opportunity to surprise all your guests and friends!

You will need:

1. Balloons
2. 5-10 pcs. LEDs
3. 5-10 pcs. batteries
4. Scotch

To assemble the glowing element, place the "legs" of the LED on either side of the battery. It should light up immediately. If this does not happen, then turn the battery over (reverse polarity). Attach the LED to the battery with tape. Do the same for all the remaining LEDs. You should have 5-10 pieces. luminous LEDs

Take a balloon and place one glowing LED in it

It remains only to inflate the balloons with air and you're done!

If you want your balloons to float in the air, fill them with helium

Depending on the type of LED and battery, the balls will delight you with their glow for 24-48 hours. This is enough for any occasion

(Vitrage- French. glazing) - decorative glass products that combine the functions that perform bright saturated pictures in rooms, with the transparency of window and other openings, thanks to which the rooms are filled with light.

There is technology fusing baking in the oven, again, it will be expensive for yourself if. There is also a film stained-glass window, this is simpler, the film is glued to the glass according to, again, a sketch, then a contour in the form of a lead tape is glued. Visually almost indistinguishable from the classic. Also in Russia, painted stained glass was successful at the beginning of the development of this art. That is, everything was painted with paints on glass. Each type of stained glass has its own pros and cons. For example, Classic, due to its decent weight, is not recommended for use on the ceiling as a backlight, it may bend over time and become unusable. Well, by the way, let's finish this topic and move on to what we were actually striving for. We will go the other way, which does not require special capital investments, but we will get a stained glass window that will delight us and our loved ones with its beauty.

And so what we will need for the manufacture of stained glass
1) Of course, this is a desire to do this business, without a desire to go anywhere.
2) At least the slightest skill in drawing, however, if there is no such gift, it's not scary. You can print the finished sketch of the stained glass you like.
4) Glass, which can be borrowed for free, now many change double-glazed windows for plastic windows, and the old glass is simply put on the street.
5) Nitro putty
6) Glue BF-2, this is the main component that will delight our eyes.

7) Aniline dyes

The whole process of making a stained-glass window can be divided into two main operations: drawing a contour on a glass or a mirror, let's call it Pulling and painting the contoured areas FILLING.

Prepare a horizontal plane

You can make a simple table with adjustable legs. In the tabletop of an ordinary table, we will drill 6 holes (four in the corners, two in the middle and one more in the center of the tabletop, we will insert pins into these holes.All this is necessary for ease of installation in a horizontal position along the level ... But you can do without it. But we will follow the technology and then everyone will decide for himself or herself to deviate from it or not to retreat.

Before starting, we set everything up according to the level, put our sketch on it with glass. We degrease the glass with ordinary detergents and wipe it dry .. Draw the contour with the help of the so-called FUNTIKA (not from the cartoon about the steamer) We will make funtik from a bottle of stationery glue (you can from another flexible bottle).

To we do not stain the glass with our hand and so that the hand glided better on glass put a glove on your hand.

Broaching curved lines will not cause difficulties, but with straight lines you will have to practice. But we are diligent, so we can handle it!Now about broaching pastes ..... Two types of pastes are recommended: nitro filler NTs-008 and paste made on the basis of BMK-5. I will say right away that neither one nor the other I could not find. The paste based on NTs-008 is opaque. The paste based on BMK-5 is transparent and can be dyed in any color. BMK-5 can generally be used for additional decoration in the manufacture of panoramas. The quality of the paste is determined by its viscosity and density. It should not spontaneously flow out of the funnel and lie on the glass almost in the form of a letter * P * or a parallelepiped. This refers to the cross section of the superimposed paste, its cross section. The thickness of the lines is approximately 1-1.5 mm. However, for an amateur. Putty NTs-008 is usually ready for use, but if it is too thick, then we dilute it with the solvent 649,648,647 acetone. In general, what is more affordable. On the basis of BMK-5, the paste is prepared a little differently. Pour up to half of the BMK-5 powder into a liter jar, pour one of the solvents to a level slightly higher than the powder. We close it tightly and after 24 hours, if you shake it periodically, then earlier, the paste is ready with the BMK paste, the contour comes out as in the photo on the right.

We fill the contoured areas with the help of the same funnel, just insert the tip from the paste of a ballpoint pen into the nose with the ball previously removed. It can be easily achieved with a needle. The amount of the composition to be poured is determined empirically, Too much pouring should not be better shaded with the nose of a funnel onto uncoated areas of glass. Insufficient quantity worsens the structure of the coating. If it is necessary to make smooth transitions from one color to another, pour the composition of one color next to another and the border is shaded using a regular student's pen or a sharpened stick, but not with a brush .. This must be done quickly before the composition has time to set. otherwise, the structure of the coating will be violated.

Now it's time to start making the filling mixture. Take BF-2 glue and stir it one to one in a sealed bottle with solvent 649. Shake thoroughly and let stand. So that the bubbles come out ... The composition is ready to check it on a piece of glass by pouring a little ... In a few minutes it will begin to crystallize. If the crystal structure is large, we add a small amount of the solvent, if it is small, then the glue. The ratio of adhesive and solvent can be changed to achieve the desired structure. To give the composition of one color or another, add alcohol-fat-soluble dyes Aniline dyes. As a rule, powder dye is enough literally on the tip of a knife. The described composition turns out to be glossy. To obtain a matte finish, you can add a little varnish NTs-222 or NTs228. When pouring a stained-glass window, the pano should be in a horizontal position for at least 5-6 hours, then it can be removed from the table and placed vertically. Complete drying 48 hours.

The cost price of a stained-glass window made in this way is not difficult to calculate. Glass can be found for free. glue penny solvent is also not expensive. And the pleasure from the result knows no bounds. It took about 150 grams of such a composition for this panorama. The size of about 50/90 cm inside the illumination of the lamp 2 pieces of luminescent. It turned out to be an excellent lamp in the hallway that has been hanging for 5 years already - pleasing to the eye.
