Quote by Leo Tolstoy
English (Source)
The faith of men is but prejudice. People prefer faith to conscience, because the former is more determined and easier, as determined and easy as the observance of a custom and quickly turns into a habit, but faith itself is unstable, unstable and does not lead to the evolution of the spiritual life . It is always immovable and fiery, it provokes the desire of people to communicate, and it cannot be otherwise, since it is based on the common opinion and the more people share it, the more determined it is. Faith is a worldly thing, a comfortable condition for carnal life. The consciousness of God belongs to the soul, it is an indispensable condition for a wise, good life. Faith is always stationary *, consciousness is always in motion. For the faithful, the movement of life unfolds in the corporeal realm, for those who have consciousness, in the spiritual realm.
