Question: You said that the main thing is to forgive your friends. Is the act of forgiveness the result of working with egoism when I can set myself up like this, or will I be able to perform this action only if the quality of bestowal comes?

Answer: Of course it is better if the quality of bestowal comes. From it, you will forgive everyone, love everyone, and get closer to everyone.

Question: And if I do not respond to evil, is that forgiveness?

Answer: Not responding to evil is good. Although this may not always be true, but in general, it should be so.

Question: Let’s say I do not respond to evil, but it remains inside. How should I work with it? Perhaps we should still ask for the quality of bestowal? After all, no matter how I twist my egoism, I still feel that there is no quality of forgiveness in egoism.

Answer: That is right, there is not. Egoism accompanies us almost to the final correction. Only at the last stop does it jump off and disappear. Then we see that, in principle, it helped us achieve our goal.

You are just starting to work on yourself, so there is still time; all this will come, both the quality of forgiveness and the quality of all-forgiveness. In the meantime, try to be as friendly as possible to each other. The main thing is to get closer in hearts in the ten.
