The article examines the criteria for the relative immortality of man and society. The idea of immortality involves an analysis of relative immortality as the value of the mind itself. The authors proceed from the understanding of immortality as a state of life. After all, a person does not start another life after his death, but continues the previous one. However, man himself is called upon to give up all imaginings about an ideal world, because the ideal is not always associated with a future happier world. The authors come to the conclusion that spiritual immortality is an effective way of spiritual and social self-defense of a person. The criteria of relative immortality, which include:1) the harmony of love for one's neighbor and love for a distant person; 2) the very life of a person in the present; 3) the feeling of love that unites all people;4) the very universality of the feeling of the entire human race.
