Conscience is not a credit card that people never tire of advertising in the Russian branch of the Consumer Society. Conscience is something completely different.

Two dictionaries

Big Encyclopedic Dictionary:CONSCIENCE is the concept of moral consciousness, an inner conviction of what is good and evil, the consciousness of moral responsibility for one's behavior. Conscience is an expression of a person's ability to exercise moral self-control, independently formulate moral obligations for oneself, demand from oneself to fulfill them and make a self-assessment of the actions performed.

Explanatory Dictionary of the Living Great Russian Language V. I. Dahl:CONSCIENCE - moral consciousness, moral sense or feeling in a person; inner consciousness of good and evil; the secret place of the soul, in which the approval or condemnation of every deed is echoed; the ability to recognize the quality of an act; a feeling that encourages truth and good, averting lies and evil; involuntary love for good and truth; innate truth, in varying degrees of development.

Quotes

I believe that you cannot live better, how trying to do better, and that there is no greater pleasure than feeling that you are really getting better. This is the happiness that I have not ceased to experience until now and which my conscience testifies to me.

Socrates

Do not do what your conscience condemns, and do not say what does not agree with the truth. Observe this most important thing, and you will fulfill the entire task of your life.

M. Aurelius

The human conscience encourages a person to seek the best and helps him sometimes to abandon the old, cozy, sweet, but dying and decaying - in favor of the new, at first uncomfortable and unwelcoming, but promising a fresh life.

A. A. Blok

There are two desires, the fulfillment of which can make a person's true happiness - to be useful and have a calm conscience.

L. N. Tolstoy

Russian Conscience

The wisdom of ancestors is also stored at the level of genes - in the genetic memory. And the role of this "keeper" is performed by conscience … It retains the core of the "mysterious" Russian soul.

Exactly consciencetells us where to move and how to act in a given situation, gives direction. Deviation from the right direction also causes the so-called remorse, i.e. a person feels that he is doing something wrong. This is a hint-direction to a person on his life path, stored in his genetic memory.

But what does our conscience? What direction does it take? What is the deep meaning?

Conscienceorders us act in the name of a kind … To act according to conscience means to act in the interests of a kind, in the interests of its preservation, development, improvement.

It is this core that makes the Rus invincible, helps the Rus to preserve their clan.

What is meant in this case by the word genus?

The word ROD here means the people of the Rus, the people living in our native Russian land, which at different times was called Rus, Russenia, the Land of the Holy Race. A people united by common traditions and culture, supported for many millennia.

"People live in nations, and they cannot live in another way - this is the way of existence of our biological species … The totality of people makes a people a common culture for them - the" genotype "of a given nation. Each nation is unique and inimitable. The nation is characterized by its psychological integrity, which is distinguishes one people from another …

Our harsh nature and our harsh history have taught us to clearly understand: we can only survive and live together, as a single people and on the basis of the priority of society.

For the Russian nation, at all times, the meaning of life is characteristic, which goes beyond the satisfaction of the physiological and everyday needs of people …

… the main values for us are the People, the Motherland, Peace (ie society), Truth, Justice, Friendship, Peace: "Think about the Motherland first, and then about yourself", "Perish yourself, but help your comrade" … "(A. S. Volkov)

Thus, CO-NEWS is a joint message, a joint message of our ancestors, fixed at the level of genetics, recorded by the genetic code. This code has been formed for many thousands of years. It has been accumulated by many generations of Rus, Slavic-Aryans. He helps to preserve and develop his family.

The fundamental principle of Western culture is unlimited "personal freedom", that is priority of individualism. This is the culture "War of all against all" even within one people. The main goal of a person is recognized self-affirmation, victory over others at any cost: you can push your elbows, trample others with your feet, climb up their heads - and even more so this is permissible in relation to other peoples and even more so to our "smaller brothers" (American Indians are far from the only people destroyed by Europeans, whales in the northern hemisphere are far from the only animal species they have destroyed).

Rampant consumerism and pleasure, openly proclaimed by Western culture as the highest values, not only completely emasculate the basic value of human life (after all, it cannot consist in stuffing the belly!), but they also directly threaten Life on Earth: the resources of the planet will not be enough to satisfy their unlimitedly growing appetites very soon. (A. S. Volkov)

Western values are being actively implemented in our country as well. There is an imperceptible substitution of high moral principles (conscience, honor, striving for truth and justice) inherent in our people, the introduction of alien concepts of deception as a norm of life (relations in the same business), career growth and the desire for power for the sake of profit (the higher, the more material wealth), enrichment at the expense of others.

This is a direct attack on our inner core and the desire to kill in us conscience.

In isolation from society, a person cannot develop to a high level (an example of this is children raised by animals - Mowgli children who could not even really learn to speak). For development, a person must absorb the experience of his ancestors, assimilate the necessary knowledge accumulated by previous generations - human development is impossible outside of society, outside of his kind.

But, developing and improving, a person must contribute to the development of the family. In turn, developing his kind, a person develops himself. Everything is interconnected. Only together does the genus develop and give rise to even more talented, creative people. Moreover, if a person seeks to give his strength to his family as much as possible, this gives him additional potential, accelerates his development many times over.

A person develops at every stage of his development conscience tells you how to move on. The more a person is developed, the more opportunities he has, the more he must take responsibility for himself - so he orders conscience … And inaction, if you can do something, also causes "remorse." If you can - act, make the world a better place, help others to develop and move forward, otherwise you will not develop yourself, these are the laws conscience.
