Temple gates. At the entrance stands a temple worker, and a stream of people with offerings, passing by, lay them in a corner and proceed into the temple (bee card). As soon as the church becomes something material, the problem of matter and spirit arises (forgiveness is needed - a question of amount, indulgences, simony).

People entering this temple with requests and pleas hope to receive something material - they have a consumer attitude toward faith. For them, the spiritual is an object of buying and selling.

In order to receive something spiritual, they are ready to sacrifice the material.

Temple - spirituality. Offerings - consumer attitude toward faith.

Positive meanings: spirituality, salary increase, energy exchange, gaining knowledge. Negative meanings: consumer attitude toward faith, material sacrifices, buying feelings.

Energy exchange. Gaining spiritual knowledge for money. This can be visiting a fortune teller or psychologist, participating in training sessions (for money), or buying developmental literature. You can also receive payment for your work (work + money = exchange).

Today you will need to sacrifice something in order to gain knowledge, spiritual nourishment - what will come easily today, without strain.

In this life, you must pay for everything, even for knowledge. For what you receive to have any value for you, you must give something in return.

To pay for knowledge without regret - this is adequate payment for acquired wisdom.

You can thank someone with a material gift for good advice that you found useful.

To be involved. Through material sacrifices, to gain access to a certain circle, society.

Relationships that are unequal but at the same time harmonious, complementary. Marriage by mutual calculation. One partner takes the role of guru, while the other provides material support. Both are satisfied. Family as contract.

Buying feelings or the right to be in a family. It's also possible that partners together seek spiritual revelation, invest material resources, for example in donations, but don't understand that spiritual work is more of an internal process.

Gifts, form, clothing, pilgrimage trips - these are not necessarily the spiritual path.

Pharisaism (Pharisee - in ancient Judea, a member of a religious-political party of wealthy urban population layers, distinguished by fanaticism and hypocrisy in following external rules of piety).

The spiritual cannot be measured by the material.

'Gentlemen, make your contributions.' It's good to give something in order to receive something later. Make a gift, a material investment. To enter the temple, you must sacrifice something significant.

Know how to sacrifice. Harmonize your own relationship with material goods.

Proportionate to invested efforts or resources. In work - labor for wages, adequate payment, salary increase, advance, prepayment.
