Question: In what regard should the upper force have mercy on us?

Answer: In regard to the fact that you are callous, that you want everything for yourself, and that in no case do you ask for others. We ask the Creator to have mercy on us egoists, and to teach us to ask for others.

Question: What does it mean to ask for the unnecessary in my prayer?

Answer: This means that it is unnecessary for me personally. I have to ask for everyone, for the whole world.
