“Greeks” are a person’s egoistic properties that do not allow him to advance to the properties of the Creator—love and bestowal. At the same time, they help us by the fact that in their opposition, they force us to strengthen our movement toward the Creator, ask Him for help, and rise higher and higher.

Question: But what if the “Greeks” come from the group? Still, it is unclear whether to ask a friend to correct this desire or to raise it?

Answer: And what if the Greeks come from you? What do you do? There are egotistic desires in each of us.

They are called Greeks without any connection with that nation. Therefore, it is necessary to separate the properties of bestowal and love from the egoistic properties that have been called the Greeks for several thousand years.

Question: Is there any kind of a universal answer to all the smart questions of the Greeks so as not to fall into this abyss together with them every time?

Answer: Yes, there is one universal answer, it is the connection between us when, as a result of our spiritual work, we attain one single force of bestowal, fight with the Greeks, and win.

Question: What happens to the Greeks afterward? Do we destroy them, or do they turn into some kind of force?

Answer: We do not destroy anyone. In our wars, we only change our intentions from receiving for ourselves to bestowing to the Creator.
