One day a young man decided to get married. For a week he ran all in the chores, preparing for the wedding. One evening, he turned to his father: “Dad, I have a request for you. I don’t have time to do everything alone, so please, here’s a list of my friends for you. Call them and invite them to my wedding.” “Okay, son” - father answered.
On the day of the wedding, the son ran up to his father and began to resent: “Dad, I asked you to call all my friends!” - That's exactly what I did. - But there were 50 people on my list, and I only see 15 of them. - Son, I called all ... all 50 people. I told each of them that I was calling at your request, that you are now in trouble and you need the help of friends. And he asked everyone to come at this time to this very place. So don't worry son, ALL YOUR FRIENDS ARE HERE NOW!
A parable from George Carlin
When George Carlin's wife died, Carlin, the famous wit and satirist of the 70s and 80s, wrote this incredibly eloquent article that is still relevant today.
“The paradox of our times is that we have tall buildings but low tolerance, broad highways but narrow views.
We spend more but have less; we buy more but enjoy less. We have bigger houses but smaller families, better amenities but less time. We have a better education, but less intelligence, better knowledge, but a worse assessment of the situation, more experts, but more problems, better medicine, but worse health.
Drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get angry too easily, stay up too late, wake up too tired, read too little, watch too much TV, and pray too little. They increased their claims, but reduced their values.
We talk too much, love too little, and hate too often. We know how to survive, but we don't know how to live. Adding years to human life, but not adding life to years.
We reached the moon and returned, but with difficulty we cross the street and get to know our new neighbor. We conquer outer space, but not spiritual ones. We do big, but not the best things.
We clean the air, but we pollute the soul.
They subjugated the atom, but not their prejudices.
We write more, but we learn less.
We plan more, but achieve less.
Learned to hurry, but not to wait.
Building new computers that store more information and spew out streams of copies than before, but communicate less and less.
This is a time of fast food and bad digestion, big people and small souls, quick profits and difficult relationships. A time of growing family incomes and growing divorces, beautiful houses and destroyed homes.
A time of short distances, disposable diapers, one-time morality, one-night stands; excess weight and pills that do everything: excite us, soothe us, kill us. A time of filled storefronts and empty warehouses.
Remember, spend more time with those you love, because they are not with you forever.
Remember and warmly hug a loved one to you, because this is the only treasure that you can give from the heart, and it does not cost a penny.
Remember and say "I love you" to your loved ones, but first really feel it.
Kiss and hugs can fix any trouble when they come from the heart.
Remember and hold hands and appreciate the moments when you are together, because one day this person will not be there for you.
About the right attitude to the negative
In Japan, in a village not far from the capital, an old wise samurai lived. One day, when he was teaching his students, a young fighter, known for his rudeness and cruelty, approached him. His favorite technique was provocation: he pissed off the enemy and, blinded by rage, he accepted his challenge, made mistake after mistake, and as a result lost the battle.
The young fighter began to insult the old man: he threw stones at him, spat and cursed with the last words. But the old man remained imperturbable and continued his studies. At the end of the day, the irritated and tired young fighter went home.
The disciples, surprised that the old man endured so many insults, asked him:
Why didn't you challenge him to a fight? Are you afraid of defeat?
The old samurai replied:
- If someone comes up to you with a gift and you don't accept it, who will the gift belong to?
To his former master, - one of the students answered.
The same goes for envy, hatred and swearing. Until you accept them, they belong to the one who brought them.
How long to wait for changes for the better?
Once a student asked the Master:
- How long to wait for changes for the better?
- If you wait, then a long time! Master replied.
life boomerang
Life is a boomerang. This is being done:
What you give is what you get back.
What you sow is what you reap
Lies break through your own lies.
Every action matters;
Only by forgiving will you receive forgiveness.
You give, you give
You betray - you are betrayed
You offend - you are offended,
You respect - you are respected ...
Life is a boomerang:
Everything and everyone deserves;
Black thoughts will return as an ailment,
Light thoughts - Divine light...
If you haven't thought about it, think about it!
An old man told me, and I will remember this phrase forever...
An old man told me, and I will always remember this phrase:
Eyes that have not cried even once cannot be beautiful.
There cannot be a beautiful soul that has never suffered.
And a person is beautiful only when there is a heart, and not a piece of metal.
Don't hurt those who love you
When driving a nail into the soul, remember that even if you pull it out with your apologies, you will still leave a hole there that will overgrow and torment its owner for a long time. Don't hurt those who love you with all their heart.
Parable about the daughter-in-law and mother-in-law
In ancient China, a girl who got married lived in her husband's house and served him and his mother. It so happened that one girl, after the wedding, was not able to endure the constant reproaches of her mother-in-law. She decided to get rid of it.
The girl went to an herbalist who was a friend of her father. She told him:
“I can no longer live with my mother-in-law. She drives me crazy. could you help me? I will pay well.
What can I do for you? - Asked the herbalist.
I want you to sell me poison. I will poison my mother-in-law and get rid of all troubles - she answered.
After much thought, the herbalist said:
- Okay, I'll help you. But you must understand two things. First, you can't poison your mother-in-law right away because people will guess what happened. I will give you herbs that will gradually kill her, and no one will think that she was poisoned. Secondly, in order to completely avoid any suspicion, you must tame your anger, learn to respect her, love, listen and be patient. Then no one will suspect you when she dies.
The girl agreed to everything, took the herbs and began to add them to her mother-in-law's food. In addition, she learned to control herself, listen to her mother-in-law and respect her. When she saw how her daughter-in-law's attitude towards her had changed, she fell in love with the girl with all her heart. She told everyone that her daughter-in-law is the best, one that one can only dream of. Six months later, the relationship between them became close, as between a natural mother and her daughter.
And then one day the girl came to the herbalist and prayed:
- For God's sake, please save my mother-in-law from the poison I gave her. I don't want to kill her. She has become the most beautiful mother-in-law and I love her.
The herbalist smiled and replied:
Don't worry, I didn't give you any poison. What I gave you is just spices. The poison was only in your head, and you got rid of it yourself.
In the hot desert, burning under the sun
A gray-haired old man walked with him, a blind old woman.
Suma behind the shoulders and in the throat of the sand
They walked in silence, dreaming, a sip of water would be!
A beautiful oasis appeared before them,
Like heavenly places with carved gates.
The gatekeeper sits on a bench at the gate
And well-fed and dressed, but with a grin in his mouth.
Come in, he says to the old man - this is Paradise,
Whatever you want, choose.
But just leave the old woman at the gate
And again she twisted her mouth into a smile...
Wiping a blind tear from his wife
And in consolation, choosing words,
Said there was a mirage before them
Let's go, dear, the spring is coming soon.
This time, the road led him
To a simple porch - "no yard, no stake."
The owner is friendly, the guests got drunk
He gave them both bread and put them to bed...
- Sleep, calmly, - he said - you are in Paradise,
Kohl did not leave his old woman
The Eternal Kingdom is for you for two.
Those who betrayed their own are not allowed into Paradise!

How can you know yourself? Only in action, but not in contemplation.
Try to do your duty, and you will immediately know what is in your soul.
Somehow one person could not decide to become a student of one teacher. And then one day, deciding to test the teacher's abilities, he came to him and said:
“Master, show me a miracle!”
And the teacher showed him a miracle. And the man said:
- Yes! Now I see your abilities and I am ready to become your student. To which the teacher replied:
But now I don't need you.
Simab said:
- I will sell the Book of Wisdom for a hundred gold coins, and some will say that it is cheap.
Yunus Marmar told him:
- And I will offer the key to understanding it, and almost no one will take it, even for nothing.
Mulla Jami told how a man asked a dervish:
- Why do you come so rarely?
And the dervish replied:
- Because the words “Why were you gone for a long time?” more pleasing to my ears than "Why are you here again?".
One monk went to the Guru and met three ascetics on his way. One sat on a large anthill and tortured himself with ant stings. Another sat on the bank of a stream and contemplated the flow of water. And the third just danced and sang songs under a magnificent tree.
Upon learning that the monk was going to the Guru, they asked to be asked how many lives they still had to remain in penance in order to receive liberation.
He promised to fulfill their request. On the way back, the ascetics asked him what answers the Guru had given.
“You, sitting on ants, have two more lives to suffer in such hardships.
The ascetic bowed his head.
“And you, contemplator, have to contemplate water for ten more lives in order to receive liberation.
The ascetic sighed heavily.
- And you, dancing for as many lives, dance as there are leaves on this tree.
“So it’s nothing at all!” - the ascetic threw up his hands and sang even more joyfully.
At that moment all the leaves fell from the tree and he was delivered.
Eskimo asks the priest:
“If I didn’t know about God and sin, would I go to hell?”
“No,” the priest answers, “if I didn’t know, I wouldn’t hit.”
“Then why,” the Eskimo was sincerely surprised, “did you tell me about it?”
One day a man came to the Buddha and, touching his feet, asked if there was a God? Eternal question!
The Buddha looked at him intently and said:
- When I was young, I was very fond of horses and distinguished four types. The first is the most stupid and stubborn, no matter how much you beat her, she still will not obey. So are many people. The second type: the horse obeys, but only after a blow. There are many such people. There is also a third type. These are horses that do not need to be beaten. You just show her the whip and that's enough. There is also a fourth type of horse, very rare. The shadow of a whip is enough for them. While saying all this, the Buddha looked into the face of the man. Then he closed his eyes and fell silent. The man also closed his eyes and sat in silence with the Buddha. At the same time, Ananda was present and something inside him began to protest.
He decided, “This is too much! The man asks about God, and the Teacher talks about horses.” Reasoning in this way within himself, Ananda could not help but see what a silence reigned, what a great silence! It was almost tangible. Ananda looked at the faces of the Buddha and the man who was undergoing a transformation right before his eyes! The Buddha opened his eyes, and the man sat in that state for another hour. His face was peaceful and bright. Opening his eyes, the man touched the feet of the Buddha in deep gratitude, thanked him and left.
When he left, Ananda asked the Buddha:
- For me it is incomprehensible! He asks about God, and you talk about horses. I saw him fall into a deep silence. As if he lived with you for many years. Even I have never known such silence! What a unity! What communication! What was transferred? Why did he thank you so much? The Buddha replied:
“I wasn't talking about horses. I spoke about the Divine. But this cannot be said directly. When I saw what horse he came on, I realized that only a true connoisseur could choose such a horse. That's why I started talking about horses. It was a language he could understand and he understood it. He is a rare person. The shadow of a whip was enough for him. And when I closed my eyes, he realized that it was impossible to talk about the highest, one could only remain silent about it; and in this silence It is known. This is a transcendent experience and it is beyond the mind.
St. Anthony the Great, being in the wilderness, in a hermitage, turned to the Lord with a request to show him a Teacher who could instruct him in the highest knowledge and in every virtue, he was sent to the nearest city to one shoemaker.
When the Buddha became enlightened, the first question he was asked was, "What have you achieved?" He laughed. He said, “Nothing. I have achieved nothing; on the contrary, I have lost a lot.” Naturally, the questioner was confused. He said: “We have always heard that to become a Buddha means to achieve the perfect, the ultimate, the eternal, and you say that not only have you not achieved anything, but you have lost a lot. What do you mean?"
The Buddha replied, “Exactly what I said. I lost everything I had, I lost my knowledge, I lost my ignorance. I stopped being human, I lost my body, my mind, my heart. I have lost thousands of things and have not gained a single one - because everything that I have gained was already mine, it is my nature. The unnatural was lost and the natural flourished. It's not an achievement at all. To think in terms of achievement is to remain in a dream.”
Once a Buddhist preacher began with a question to the padre:
Did God give Moses commandments that only people were supposed to keep, and God himself would break?
The missionary indignantly rejected this suggestion.
“Well,” said the opponent, “you say that God does not make exceptions to this rule, and that no soul can be born without his will. But among other things, God forbids adultery, and yet you say that it is he who creates every born baby, and he endows him with a soul. Are we to understand that millions of children born in crime and adultery are the work of God? And that your God, while forbidding and punishing the violation of his laws, nevertheless daily and hourly creates souls just for such children? According to the simplest logic, your God is an accomplice in crime, because without his help and intervention such "children of sin" could not be born. Where is justice when not only guilty parents, but also an innocent baby are punished for what is done by God himself, whose complete innocence you justify?
The missionary looked at his watch and suddenly realized that it was already too late to continue the discussion.
Two monks were walking through the forest. A shallow river blocked their way, and a woman stood on the bank, afraid to step into the water. One of the brothers, taking her in his arms, carried her to the other side and put her on the ground there, and both continued on their way. After walking a few more kilometers, the second monk suddenly could not stand it and indignantly asked:
How could you?! How could you touch a woman, did you take a vow of celibacy?
To which the first responded:
I left this woman there, on the shore, and you still carry her with you.

A few parables from the collections:
According to the book: Desert Fathers: A collection of Christian parables and legends.
From the series of books "101 parables".
ONE HERMIT
came to complain to the elder that every day from nine in the morning he felt a strange hunger in his solitude. Although in the monastery where he used to live, he managed to spend several days without food.
“Don’t be surprised at this, my son,” the elder answered him. - There is no one in the desert who would be a witness to your fasts and who would support and feed you with praises. Previously, vanity served you as food in the monastery, and the pleasure that you experienced, being distinguished from others by your abstinence, was sweeter than dinner for you.
INVITED ONCE
the holy elder for advice in order to decide how to punish the sinning monk. But the elder refused to go to the council. The brothers argued and argued, but, having not come up with a worthy punishment, they decided to go to the elder themselves.
The old man saw this, he shouldered a holey sandbag and went out to meet them.
- Where are you going? - asks the elder brethren.
- I'm coming to you for advice.
Why did you take the sandbag with you?
- How do you know that there is sand in the bag?
- So look back. Your bag is leaky, and sand is pouring out of it.
“It’s not sand, it’s my sins that are falling behind me,” the elder told them. - But I don’t even look back at them, but I go to judge other people’s sins.
The monks understood what the elder meant and forgave their brother.
AT ONE START
asked:
- How do you have the patience to be alone in this abandoned corner of the earth?
He replied:
- I'm never alone. I always have an interlocutor - the Lord. When I want Him to speak to me, I read Holy Scripture. And when I want to talk to Him myself, I pray.
WHEN TO ONE
The disciple came to the elder with a confession of sins, he always said to him:
- Get up!
But I've gotten up and down many times.
- Get up again!
- How long will I fall and get up?
- Until death overtakes you - fallen or risen, - the elder answered him.
According to the book: There was a man ...: A collection of Christian parables and legends.
From the series of books "101 parables".
The fisherman was transporting one person on a boat. The passenger hurried the fisherman:
- Hurry, I'm late for work!
And then he saw that on one oar it was written "pray", and on the other - "work".
- Why is this? - he asked.
- For memory - the fisherman answered. - In order not to forget that we must pray and work.
“Well, it’s understandable to work, everyone needs it, but praying,” the man waved his hand, “is not necessary. No one needs it, why waste time praying.
- No need? - asked the fisherman and pulled out of the water an oar with the inscription "pray", and he began to row with one oar. The boat circled in place.
- You see, what work without prayer. We are spinning in one place and no movement forward.
From this it is clear: in order to sail successfully on the stormy sea of life, you must firmly hold two oars in your hands: pray and work.
A drought happened in ONE CITY. Summer was in full swing, and the city priest called everyone to the temple in the morning to pray for rain. The whole city came, and the whole city laughed at one child - the child came with an umbrella. Everyone laughed and said:
- Fool, why did you bring an umbrella? You lose, there is no rain.
- And I thought that if you pray, then it will rain, - the child answered.
In the HOUSE of some rich people, they stopped praying before meals. One day a priest came to visit them. The table was laid very elegantly, the best dishes were taken out and the best drinks were served. The family sat down at the table. Everyone looked at the priest and thought that he would pray before eating. But the priest said:
- The father of the family should pray at the table, because he is the first prayer book in the family.
There was an unpleasant silence, because no one in this family prayed. The father cleared his throat and said: “You know, dear father, we don’t pray, because the prayer before meals always repeats the same thing. Prayers out of habit are empty talk. These repetitions are every day, every year, so we no longer pray.
The priest looked at everyone in surprise, but then a seven-year-old girl said:
- Dad, don't I need to come to you every morning and say "good morning" anymore?
A man was walking along the beach. Everything around was dotted with algae, small fish and starfish, which washed ashore after a terrible storm.
Suddenly he saw a little girl. She bent down to the ground, took something, and then threw it into the sea.
- Why are you doing this? the man asked. You can't help them all! Too many of them!
“Maybe,” the girl replied, throwing another starfish as far as possible into the sea. But for her, I did everything I could.
Two people were standing on the side of the road and talking about something.
A drunkard passed by them and said to himself:
- Probably, they are now agreeing to go to the cellar together to drink wine.
And the drunkard, forgetting about all his affairs, hurried to the tavern.
A fornicator passed by those who were talking and thought:
- Here are people, not afraid of publicity, conspiring in the middle of broad daylight for carnal pleasures. Why am I worse?
Having changed his route, the fornicator went to the den of debauchery.
The righteous man passed by and said to himself:
- People have found time and have a good conversation, leaving the fuss. But I, a sinner, have not chosen an hour for the third day to visit a sick neighbor.
And the righteous man, putting aside all his worries, hastened to support the sick man with a kind word.
So righteous people see the good in everything, and for the slaves of vice the whole world is a temptation to sin.
ONE HAIRDRESSER, while cutting a client's hair, talked to him about God:
- If God exists, why so many sick people? Where do homeless children and unjust wars come from? If He really existed, there would be no suffering, no pain. It is hard to imagine a loving God who allows all this. Therefore, I personally do not believe in its existence.
Then the client said to the hairdresser:
- You know what I'll say? There are no hairdressers.
- How it is? - the hairdresser was surprised. - One of them is now in front of you.
- Not! the client exclaimed. “They don’t exist, otherwise there wouldn’t be as many overgrown and unshaven people as the man walking down the street over there.
- Well, dear man, it's not about hairdressers! It's just that people don't come to me.
- In fact of the matter! the client confirmed. - And I'm talking about the same thing: God exists. It's just that people don't seek Him and don't come to Him. That is why there is so much pain and suffering in the world.

There is no greater fire than passion; there is no greater misfortune than hatred; No
misfortunes greater than the body; there is no happiness equal to peace.
"Dhammapada"
Victory breeds hatred; the vanquished lives in sorrow. In happiness lives the calm, who has refused victory and defeat.
"Dhammapada"
Peace to all peoples, slaves - joys of light
Salvation forever from sorrows and troubles
They carry a severe sword and a meek pen -
Two things, that's all, and there is no third thing in the world.
As-Samarkandi
To find peace in both worlds, observe two rules: be generous with friends, restrained with enemies.
Shamseddpn Hafiz
If you don’t step aside even a little from the world, then you will become like a moth flying into a fire, and a ram butting a gate. How can you find peace and happiness here?
Hong Zicheng
Peace in the midst of peace is not true peace. Only when you find peace in movement, you truly comprehend the heavenly nature. Fun in the midst of fun is not true joy. Only when you comprehend joy in sorrow will you understand how the heart lives.
Hong Zicheng
The length of time is determined by our perception. The dimensions of space are determined by our consciousness. Therefore, if the spirit is calm, one day will be compared with a thousand centuries, and if thoughts are broad, a tiny hut will contain the whole world.
Hong Zicheng
There is nowhere to find peace for those who have not found it in themselves.

Calm - better twice.
Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin
Peace and rest owe their sweetness to work.
William Ellery Channing (Channing)
Fruitful work, love and thinking are possible only if a person can, when necessary, remain calm and alone with himself. Being able to listen to oneself is a prerequisite to being able to hear others; being at peace with oneself is a necessary condition for relationships with other people.
Erich Fromm
The thirst for peace kills the passion of the soul, and then goes, grinning, in the funeral procession.

Two pictures
Vladimir Shebzukhov
Told the guest-king
Monarch hospitable:
"I love the wonderful picture,
That's why I praise her
The peace of the soul is visible in her!
And indeed the master king is right,
If the guest-monarch exclaimed "Ah!"
I barely saw the painting.
It brought calm and peace.
Freezing white clouds
Clear lake in the mountains...
And a butterfly, just about, from a flower
It flies up, spreading its wings.
………………………………………………..
In his, rushing, kingdom,
The king cannot find a place.
He began to dream of the picture.
The decree was given to the painter.
So that, in a very short time,
He was able to portray peace!
His order was carried out.
The artist brought the canvas.
Flashing lightning many times
The picture is shown.
This is not pleasing to the eye.
And who will be happy with the showers?
Gloomy sky, waterfall ...
Admiring this canvas,
The king, seeing, was stunned -
Where there is a crack in the rock
There was a bush... And a nest on it.
Though storm, downpour, darkness everywhere
(Go understand, sometimes ... creators),
The bird sat in that nest
hatching chicks in it.
The monarch, it seemed, was not himself,
But I understood, in fact -
Peace in the heart and soul peace,
Looking at the king...
A happy life begins with peace of mind. Cicero
Calmness is nothing but the proper order in thoughts. Marcus Aurelius
Wisdom comes with the ability to be calm. Just watch and listen. Nothing else is needed. Eckhart Tolle
If you can breathe slowly, your mind will calm down and regain vitality. Swami Satyananda Saraswati
The search for tranquility is one of the ways of prayer, which gives rise to light and warmth. Forget yourself for a moment, know that wisdom and compassion lie in that warmth. When you walk on this planet, try to notice the true appearance of heaven and earth; this is possible if you do not allow yourself to be paralyzed by fear and decide that all your gestures and postures will correspond to what you think. Morihei Ueshiba
Our peace of mind and joy of being do not depend on where we are, what we have or what position we occupy in society, but solely on our frame of mind. Dale Carnegie
No one can disturb the other - only we deprive ourselves of peace. Irvin Yalom.
Nothing calms the spirit so much as finding a solid goal - a point to which our inner gaze is directed. Mary Shelley
The greatest peace of mind is possessed by the one who cares neither for praise nor for blasphemy. Thomas a Kempis
If someone offended you, take revenge courageously. Stay calm and this will be the beginning of your revenge, then forgive - this will be the end of it. Victor Hugo
If difficulties and obstacles stand in your way, it is not enough to remain calm and calm. Boldly and joyfully rush forward, overcoming one obstacle after another. Act as the proverb says: “The more water, the higher the ship.” Yamamoto Tsunetomo.
Lord, give me the serenity to accept what I cannot change, give me the courage to change what I can change, and give me the wisdom to distinguish one from the other. F. C. Etinger
From calm reflection, there is much more sense than from impulses of despair. Franz Kafka.
Calmness can achieve more than excessive excitement and nervousness. Arthur Haley.
Only in calm waters are things reflected undistorted. Only a calm consciousness is suitable for perceiving the world. Hans Margolius
The rays of calm eyes are the strongest in the world. Akhmatova A. A.
Nothing gives as many advantages over others as the ability to remain calm and cool in any situation. Thomas Jefferson
Calmness is an important component of success, without it it is impossible to think productively, act and communicate with people. Peace of mind allows the mind to dominate the senses. Anna Duvarova
In disputes, a calm state of mind, combined with benevolence, is a sign of the presence of a certain force, as a result of which reason is confident in its victory. Immanuel Kant
Every dignity, every strength is calm precisely because they are sure of themselves. Belinsky V.G.
We must calmly understand ourselves, not rush to conclusions, live as it should, and not chase like a dog for its own tail. Franz Kafka.
And in my soul peace and quiet,
like a mirror lake...
I'll live my life with pleasure
she is unique to me! Angelica Kugeiko
When you live in harmony with yourself, you are able to get along with others. Mikhail Mamchich
He who controls himself controls the world. Halifax George Savile
Live in peace. Come spring, and the flowers bloom themselves. Chinese proverb
If you can’t calmly react to everything, at least react calmly to your own reaction.
Never regret anything! Everything that was supposed to be and nothing can be changed. Emotions bursting out, leaving peace and satisfaction, cleansing us.
Perhaps, in us, and on earth, and in heaven, only one thing is scary - that which is not expressed aloud. We will not find peace until we have said everything once and for all; then, finally, silence will come, and we will no longer be afraid to be silent. Louis Ferdinand Celine.
I like the stillness of the flowers only because it came after they had just been swayed by the breeze. The clarity of the sky strikes us only because we have seen it more than once in thunderclouds. And the moon is never so majestic as among the clouds crowding around it. Can rest be truly sweet without fatigue? Continuous immobility is no longer rest. This is non-existence, this is death. George Sand.
Take care without worry. Vadim Zeland.
Whatever it is, calm down.
Calm down - laugh.
Laugh and breathe again.
Be quiet.
Enjoy one moment.
Revelation or oblivion.
Does not matter.
About one.
Inhale.
Exhalation.
Calm.
