Comment: You have long term students who used to be hot-tempered and impudent and then changed, became more patient.

My Response: Character has nothing to do with spirituality.

The soul has no age, it is always young. If it is constantly updated, then the person is a child until the very last minute. He wonders at the world and looks at everything with wide-open eyes, because for him the world is always new!

Sometimes you look at people: heavy, filled with all sorts of information. Know that you are looking at an empty person, there is nothing in him! If he does not free himself every minute and does not feel the world as new in his renewing qualities, then he is dead, there is nothing to learn from him, there is nothing to ask him. He only pretends to be important, because he has absorbed dead knowledge and is afraid to spill it out.

Comment: It happens that at first some of the students are full of criticism, and when they go through certain states, they become more tolerant and understanding.

My Response: Yes, there is no need to make a revolution here. We need to figure out what the problem is and adjust ourselves to it.

The problem is that in spirituality you do not need to correct someone, you need to correct yourself. In spirituality, one should strive not to reveal something or to receive something, but to ensure that I have a desire to receive, a desire to reveal! Then spirituality will be manifested in me.

Basically, I am in an ocean of infinite pleasure and infinite knowledge. To the extent that I have a desire for this, I will be fulfilled. So, we need to work not to be fulfilled, but to want to be fulfilled.

This is a very serious psychological problem, not very clear to people in our world, because this is a different world.
