Here people can see the universe, inside a black hole in the space of passions. Chronosphere of a quantum leap of feelings from all lives. As if inside reincarnation and you see everything that was, all that you have is the past. The range of feelings that you have felt in all your lives. A palette of memories. It takes you to another universe. Into a new life. Bright colors of nostalgia, this is the wealth of the past. Warm tones where we felt good and cold tones where we felt bad.

Through the time and space of the timing of life, we rush forward. 2. Natural selection and evolution by typing, and by pull.

Life is an expectation of the realization of meaning in life. We peer into the world in which we build ourselves gigantic problems out of lies. We shape the world from lies. This is our main building material. Consciousness pierces the infinity of nonsense in reincarnation. The darkness of the emptiness of the past as a great canalization of the paradoxes of the subconscious. We mostly act unconsciously. 1. Form yourself Body like children's plasticine, become such a man so that girls and women have a natural fire between their legs, so that trousers are on fire with excitement.

You must live a life without anger, shackling him in the arms of nobility and love, and then the hellish flame of anger will turn into a steel of peace. Anger is painful because it is a delusion devoid of any sense of justice, it does not give you respect or a sense of satisfaction from justice, only a contemptible shame in front of higher powers. Anger is an unnecessary feeling of the mind and heart, it is a fire that burns the soul and defiles memory. Anger is the product of new grievances, dramas, and tragedies. Live only one life without anger, and the vicious circle of self-deception, the wheel of samsara and reincarnation of déjà vu, the whole life as an inadequate sleep will stop, and you will wake up in paradise, the same life will stop repeating itself. 5.

From this, children are more likely to get sick. But what if human DNA is completely chemically painful. What if this is the end of civilization. And people put their dirty greedy hands there that they themselves do not fully understand. Genetics will either destroy us or break all DNA codes and we will move to a new level of physiology and consciousness. Life experiences shape DNA. We shape ourselves and our own future. A quantum leap of awareness in a change in consciousness, space and time. New DNA strands as new levels of awareness and can program consciousness. Divine power that from the greed of some people can destroy us. 3. A closed person is like a toy that you pull by the string and she says the same negative phrases. This is an emaciated person. 4.

The course of insight leads only forward through life. 5. Expression and sounding of reality as a rupture of the dimension of consciousness.
