What does it mean, "Have salt among yourselves, and be at peace with each other" in Mark 9:50?

The wisdom is the "spiritual salt" of the word. Just as salt adds flavor to food, wisdom adds flavor to everyday life decisions, we have to choose our neighbor matter or not.
When we take actions according to wisdom, that is, when we are benevolent, uplifting, progressive, empathetic and assertive, we expand to others and to our environment happiness, joy, life. The wisdom is the knowledge of the correct means to live. This is "salting" the world.

Bible study. Have salt among yourselves, and be at peace with each other. Mark 9,50.jpg

The meaning of life is to increase the gifts, and since the gifts are perfections, the meaning of life is to increase the order and perfection of the universe. And Jesus adds: "Salt is good, but if it loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again?", Luke 14:34. That is, Jesus is telling us, if we lose the direction and the meaning of things, how do we go back to the way of God?
Today, in today's world with so much technology and science at our fingertips, there have never been more wars, conflicts and sufferings. And this is so because the meaning of things was lost, the most perfect and important science was forgotten, the wisdom to live. The best way to worship God is to live wisely, Jesus explains so:
"Woman", Jesus replied, "believe me, a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem. You Samaritans worship what you do not know; we worship what we do now, for salvation is from the Jews. Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in the Spirit and in truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth". John 4:21-24
Peace between people is not the fruit of justice but of wisdom, justice is a form of error, not all justice is good, a beatitude about the gift of wisdom expresses this teaching of Jesus: "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God", Matthew 5:9
The "spiritual salt" living daily establishes peace among men.
