Question: You said that we need to advance toward the Creator every day even if it is just by a millimeter. It feels like we are not advancing toward Him, but rather are moving away. Can this feeling of moving away be considered progress?

Answer: Distancing can be somewhat deceptive because the closer you get to the Creator, the more it seems that you are getting worse.

Question: Why does the Creator do this?

Answer: He does not do it. It happens because you are close to the ideal of bestowal and love. In spirituality, there are different requirements.
