And once the storm is over you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure, in fact, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about. (Haruki Murakami)

Question: Is the storm and in general everything that is happening around us in humanity and now in the world happening only so that we become a different person?

Answer: Yes, everything that happens in nature! Even explosions somewhere in distant stars are happening only in order to somehow act through some chains of events on a person.

Question: If I am an ordinary person, and it happens somewhere out there in Africa, is it still happening for me?

Answer: Yes. Do not look for any laws of justice in this. We do not understand all this.

Question: But there is a big difficulty in this for me. Somewhere out there, in Alaska, something is happening, is it happening for me?

Answer: Yes.

Question: What will happen if I can really train myself so that it will be my thought? Let’s dream that every person has managed…

Answer: Then you will begin to correct the world with this thought.

Question: What is the conclusion from this? That the world is tied to me and my actions determine what will happen in Alaska?

Answer: Yes.

Question: If we do not change, if I do not change—again and again troubles come into the world, next to me, and so on, and I do not change—do the troubles then increase? Will this pressure on me increase?

Answer: Of course. On you personally and on each of us, and on all of us together.

Question: Does this happen until I understand what depends on me?

Answer: Yes.

Question: Isn’t this difficult for a person?

Answer: We live in this.

Comment: But we do not feel this.

My Response: But do we feel that it is getting worse?

Comment: Yes, we feel it.

My Response: Is the pressure growing?

Comment: It is growing.

My Response: So, we need to do something about it.

Question: Is the conclusion from this that the entire world is tied to me and this is so for everyone? And I am tied to the entire world?

Answer: Yes.

Question: How can we live with this?

Answer: But we live.

Comment: We do not feel this; this is why we live.

My Response: That’s right. But what should I do? To feel. Once you start feeling it, you start thinking about it, you start trying to change it mentally, and you change it.

Question: Can you imagine if a person comes to this thought and there is such a responsibility on him, then how will he live?! How?

Answer: He will live. At the moment, he, the miserable one, exists.

Question: Is this what you call life: to learn to tie myself to the entire world, to feel that it depends on me?

Answer: Yes. And to care for the entire world.

Question: Is it in a person’s power or not?

Answer: That is exactly what is in a person’s power. For this, people just need a certain education so that they understand that everything that happens is necessary only for them to realize where they exist, in what system of nature they exist, and why the environment is not so kind to them.

Question: If I understand this, will I be able to take a step, or will I do it all the time with the fear that I am responsible and I am worried?

Answer: No. On the contrary, I will take good and correct steps gradually, here and there, remembering, forgetting, and somehow else. But in general we will improve ourselves and thereby improve the world.
