We will personally examine our conscience, our heart, the spirits that live in it, and there, in the solitude of the booth, we will decide accordingly. And God extends his hand towards us.
According to Friedrich Nietzsche, there are no free-floating entities in the world, only forces that are occupied by other forces, and what is created in this way remains in balance in the long term. And Béla Hamvas writes, "the forces of the world gather in ignition centers. These ignition centers mean increased intensity. The power centers live in both worlds: in the visible world, as planets, suns, celestial bodies, in the invisible world, as demons, spirits, gods". Then the politicians translate all this in a profane way - somewhat in the spirit of Machiavelli: force only bows before force.
But what is this force that conquers other forces in the universe of politics? Where does it come from, what is its origin? What is its intensity? Well, these are not complicated things. According to the definition of democracy, all power comes from the people, the people are the master! Yes, apparently it is. But what forces move the people? According to Lion Feuchtwanger, the forces that move people are always the same:
love and hate.
Love is a spiritual, divine force, but hatred is demonic, the revenge of fallen spirits, the weapon of Satan. None of them resides in the people, but in the hearts of the people, where there is a constant battle between good and evil. This is the inescapable credo of man. You have to choose what is the most personal thing. I can't leave this to anyone else - the choice is my responsibility. I have to deal with him, my life is at stake.
There are basically three levels of existence: the human-personal, the social and the divine level. BUT, in fact, the connection between the personal and the divine level is decisive. We can only accurately and reassuringly appear in front of others and exist as God's face on the social level if we have an accurate account with him. Because if there is no such thing, then the other person can be tricked, humiliated, even destroyed, all you have to do is change the rules, shape them one way or another. The material world likes to emphasize the Nietzschean wisdom that "God is dead", but they forget to add the other half of the sentence - on purpose - which gives the whole thing meaning after all, "we killed him"! With bad decisions and choices, during which a person allows the demons to dominate and gain power within himself. Because of this, people then become a crowd, in which they lose their individual face and the heart tries to hide behind a mask. But that doesn't work, you can't kill God! This leads to damnation and downfall! You can't give up personal responsibility anyway!
It is no coincidence that totalitarian powers do not leave the choice to the human heart.
They are trying to abolish free choice with bloody revolutions, symbols painted red, the night of long knives, and the most diverse forms of destruction.
That's why "freedom is such a big thing"! - as Márai writes, as a word of warning regarding fifty-six to the indifferent West, which pushed the Hungarians to perish in front of the Great Communist Bear. We didn't get this, we fought for it! And not with weapons, but with our hearts. With that happy liberation, the radiation of which can still be read on the archival footage of people's faces as they walk almost above the ground and smile at the camera. It seems that some kind of power has possessed them, and it is the power of love. They don't care about the consequences. "No deal - let me be happy!" - lines from Attila József's poem Ars poetica are written on the pictures.
The forces of evil manipulate, hide, use violence, they do not dare to stand up openly and reveal themselves, to take responsibility for themselves. "Others are always to blame, others commit the crimes, which we then have to punish harshly!" they scream. They dare not say: "I confess to Almighty God and to you, my brothers, that I have sinned many times and much". Instead, peaceful demonstrators are attacked with tanks and cavalry charges. They are possessed by the demons of power. They believe that they have to deal only with men and not with God.
The President of the Republic János Áder announced the 2022 general parliamentary elections the other day, together with the referendum on families and the protection of children, and the demons are already roaring: in 80 days we will replace this and that, we will imprison them, exile them, they will die of hunger ! they shout. And the forces of love only say: we will be there!
We will be there where Christianity, our ancient culture, our language, our brothers and sisters across the border, our faith, our historical unity, and our universal Europeanness – as defined by Saint Stephen – must be protected. We will be there, where the future of our family and children must be protected against the inhuman, faceless, algorithm-controlled forces that threaten to erase our God-given personality and gender - the deceitful forces that lie to the rainbow (God's peace).
We will personally examine our conscience, our heart, the spirits that live in it, and there, in the solitude of the booth, we will decide accordingly. And God extends his hand towards us.
The apostle Paul puts all the things of the world into one of the pans of the scale and says that if I do not have love, I am nothing! So let's see where the tongue of the scale tips!
