today's gospel reading, we heard the story of how the lord, after six days, brought peter jacob up to a high mountain and there was transfigured before them. and how are these six days calculated after what event? about the event is very significant. exactly 6 days before be transformed, the lord asked the disciples. who do people recognize me for? and then there was a confession that the lord is the son of god, in response to this confession. the lord has made it possible. to the apostles

on mount tabor to see him transfigured then he promised them. that they won't see death? how will they see the kingdom of god come in power? and after six days he showed them. this is god's kingdom. he gave them the opportunity to touch another world of being. according to her, they saw in him not just a teacher who taught them divine wisdom. but they saw the son of god who revealed his divine nature in this wondrous image of the transfiguration, of course, this was given to the disciples in order to later, when a

difficult time comes. and when? a savior tormented by human malice will appear before them, they remembered this transfiguration, they remembered that. that the lord appeared on mount tabor in his glory and gave them a particle of this divine kingdom. to which he called people through the change of life through following the divine commandments. this is the kingdom of god with which the disciples met the savior on mount tabor, according to st. gregory palamas, is what exists constantly in our world? the kingdom of god, according to gregory

, is half-hearted, although he did not use the words that i will now use and which are more understandable to people , there is a parallel world. the kingdom of god always exists, it is parallel to this earthly life, this earthly kingdom, which means that this kingdom is very close to us. and we have the opportunity. to be involved in this kingdom already here on earth, and it is not at all accidental that the divine liturgy begins with an exclamation blessedly the kingdom of the father and son and the holy spirit. but if this kingdom did not exist, here and now, how could one say that a certain kingdom is blessed, in which

we will only participate in the future. the divine liturgy also introduces us to this divine realm through the acceptance of the body and blood of the savior, we partake of his divine nature. of course, we also partake of his divine kingdom. but of course you can live your whole life and never feel this kingdom. don't even know what's next to you divine realm. and this is how you can live your life . why constantly feel the divine presence, that is, the presence of another world in your life? often people are given such a special experience of experiencing god's presence, that is, the presence of god's kingdom. sometimes this happens when a person goes through

severe stress and is close to death, but then, by the grace of god, he gains salvation. and this is the unearthly joy of a person who has become alive again. being almost dead. but sometimes, so without a special miracle associated with the course of our earthly life. we come into contact with the divine kingdom and when, having repented worthily of our sins, we partake of the holy mysteries of christ, that is, divine grace touches our heart, of course, this is a reflection of the divine kingdom. but after all, this is nothing but a signal from that very kingdom to us, because quiet is spiritual joy. it cannot have earthly life as its source, it has as its

source the divine kingdom that we touch, as if tangentially passing, because burdened with sins and this carnal physical life we ​​can not until a certain point. when our soul will be free, and when it will have the opportunity to enter this kingdom. we here cannot fully enter this kingdom. but a touch on the divine realm, which is displayed by the joy of the world with love for the heart, which helps us overcome the obstacles that arise on our life path. there is a great gift of god hallelujah about the kingdom of god, we are talking not only about the future, although we are talking about it, but we are talking about

some kind of parallel world that is next to us so near that even they themselves do not imagine it and come in to touch this world. it's not that hard. only it is necessary to try to live after all, because the law which the lord and through prayer through the acceptance of the saints of christ taya let not for any long time, because life, breaking into our spiritual life, prevents us from constantly being in this kingdom of god, but we also become like joy to come into contact with another being, but the people are saints. who completely give themselves to the lord who take on special feats. who, as it were, crucify their physical flesh, and

at the same time completely, as it were, renounce this external world, they are already on earth residing in this kingdom, is it possible to explain in any other way the thousand- day feat of st. seraphim of sarov, his prayer on the stone. how could he just stand and pray, if he were not at that moment in this kingdom of god, without leaving his physical body, but with his spirit he was there. and how can one explain the incredible power of the martyrs? no amount of patience can explain those tortures that the martyrs were subjected to, when you read about these tortures, you can’t even imagine how a person could survive. after all this, all these wheelings, quarterings, beatings,

how human flesh, how the nervous system could withstand this, how a person has not gone crazy. during these tortures, he went crazy, remained both in good mind and in fortitude, and did not lose faith. and why? and because through this sorrow the lord made it possible here on earth, perhaps at the most terrible moment of torture, to touch that divine to his kingdom. and having touched this other reality, a person could no longer refuse. i have no convictions not to accept the dishes of mockers and tormentors from calmly accepted death and went through terrible torment, because i had already come into contact with the divine heavenly kingdom.

is this contact with the kingdom of heaven with the kingdom of god here on earth only about spiritually prominent people or martyrs? not at all, because if it were, it would mean that the lord closed the most the opportunity to get in touch with their heavenly kingdom for the vast majority of people. but this is not so, because every person potentially has this opportunity. it is only necessary to concentrate precisely on the desire for the desire to be with god , it is necessary that prayer is not a mechanical rite, which may have happened to parents or some kind people, but which we often perform, well, practically, like a kind of rite, almost like a machine, if prayer becomes a living conversation between a person and god if it is in water

of a person, not with god at all, then it opens at least for a moment to such a person from zarnitsa of the divine kingdom. today teaches us a lot. the transfigured lord revealed to his disciples the divine nature, he strengthened their faith so that at the moment of suffering the test of temptations. which they were facing, they remained faithful to him, and so it happened. how could those who saw the transfigured savior betray him in moments of suffering? and with what terrible sufferings the apostle peter, especially, was put to death. this one the living experience of the contact of the apostles with the lord and the savior with his divine kingdom and gave them

strength to perform great feats to overcome the difficulties of torture. from spiritual power being absolutely unbroken to accept death itself today, no one demands from us what the pagan rulers of the apostles demanded. but the world itself today. thus, it affects our consciousness on our psyche. that he suggests that we should almost be forced to follow a different path, very far from the path to the kingdom of god. he offers we have many temptations. here is the consumer philosophy of life enjoyment hedonism. a whole system of values ​​that put a

person at the center of life. and demands to provide this center with everything necessary and even more than necessary. forgetting about god and the fact that the lord himself is in the center of being. may today strengthen us in the faith of piety. in firmness to go, therefore, from the path that we, as christians, have chosen, we will pray for ourselves and for each other. let us pray for our people, for our fatherland, so that more people believed that there is a real way of god's kingdom, which begins here on earth and which gives a person something that only god can give the fullness of being. the very fullness of being that we are on a simple human.
