You can only help someone who is ready for help. A suffering person sees the world through his pain, which means he is deaf and blind.

Question: Is it impossible to help a person?

Answer: You cannot help when someone is suffering. He himself, through his suffering, must come to a state when he feels a world filled with bliss and goodness.

Question: Until one comes to this, can we help him?

Answer: No.

Question: Does it follow that a person has to undergo all the descents himself?

Answer: Of course.

Question: And no one can help him?

Answer: Practically… only with advice.

Question: Is it obvious that a prayer comes from a person, as well as from an animal? Even animals hurt, a cow prays, it moos. And a person prays asking for pain to go away. Is this a correct state?

Answer: Yes.

Question: So, in fact, is one being led to turn to someone, namely, to turn to the Creator? Is that the reason he is feeling pain?

Answer: Yes.

Comment: This path is a bit brutal.

My Response: No, he is given a bit of pain to feel that he is not in a comfortable state, not in the right state.

Question: And he must bring it to the correct state?

Answer: Yes.

Question: So if I, feeling pain, look for a way out into a comfortable, correct state, then the pain will go away?

Answer: Yes.

Question: What is the correct state?

Answer: When you are at peace with the Creator.

Question: Are we not at peace with the Creator?

Answer: No.

Question: What is being at peace with the Creator, what is it?

Answer: Being at peace with the Creator is having no demands. Not because you do not want or need to, but because you see the whole world as kind and pure.

Question: Is this the state we should come to?

Answer: Yes.
