God is love. The film by Sergey Karandashov “Wanderer”, based on the book “Revelations of a Wanderer to a Spiritual Father”. The book is known, and the author is unknown, it can be considered a popular book.
The film is about the path to the Supreme spiritual principle, about the feat of faith, but in modern attributes and interpretation.
A young man, Fyodor accidentally becomes a witness of a miracle, and in search of a sign becomes a hermit, trying to live according to the canons of faith. However, this is not an easy task, a feat of faith. He's not working. Meeting with Elder Hilarion does not save the situation. And after the death of the elder, the criminals killed him, he returns to worldly life.
You could put an end to this, but this is only the beginning. The beginning of the wanderer’s journey through the labyrinths of his soul. It is a revelation that must be earned. Life, faith. It is necessary to come to faith, to take heart.
As for me, the film is still very controversial, I do not agree with everything, however. Spirituality and faith are very close to each other, the question is not faith. Or that faith, but it is not used that way. Faith is now a business, and a very profitable business, /maybe it was before, I don’t know /. But the question is why do we live like this? How did we get there?
Yes, love is a good commodity, without investing anything, you take cash. A person who tries to gain faith in the highest justice gives the crook the last, hoping that he bribed God and will go to heaven. I have met many lost people, I have met saints, I have not met only decent priests. You didn't, God. Not a miracle.
Come on, let's go. Fedor met in the world a woman, an ordinary woman, with a child. The baby has brain cancer. That's a sad story. What oncology is, we all know, and how it is treated, we also know, but what miracles are, we do not really know, we believe in the depths of our soul, for the time being. I have never been cured of cancer in my life.
So the movie isn't about that, or it's not about that. A film about enlightenment, about the path to enlightenment, about the understanding of life, about the correct understanding of life. If someone close to you dies of cancer or not of cancer, they die. It happened. What kind of faith is there to talk about?
The finiteness of life. We are strangers, moving through life, and our path is predetermined by death. The endpoint is one and there are no options. From this, you can understand what love is. What is its value in human life? How important it is to have time to say about your love, to have time to sacrifice in the name of love, and only then.
Then someone, no matter who says it, I saw the sign of God, for the miracles of God are made by human hands. God is love.
