The most important thing for us is to master the methodology of approaching the Creator, which is achieved through the connection of friends within the group. After all, it is impossible to perceive the Creator or invoke His influence upon oneself without practicing this within oneself.

It is as if we construct the image of the Creator within ourselves. This is why the Creator is called “Bore”—”Bo-u-Ré”—”Come and See.” “Come” means to form this shape within yourself, to come to it, and then you will study it within yourself.

You cannot study the Creator outside of yourself. There is no such concept as “outside oneself” in a person. It may seem to them that they perceive something external. In reality, everything is felt within oneself, just like when working with a computer. If we see something on the computer, we are not interacting with something outside of it. It is all within the computer.

The same applies to us. It seems to me that there are some images outside of me, that I see, hear, and feel something external, a world beyond myself. But these are just incorrect perceptions. In reality, everything is experienced within us.

Therefore all our actions boil down to creating conditions within ourselves that form the image of the Creator inside us. Our most effective state is when we turn to Him because this turning consists of our desire, the feeling of what we have today, and our awareness of who or what we must become in the next moment—not today, but tomorrow.

Although “today” and “tomorrow” are merely two different yet closely connected states, in this way we express our desire, awareness, and understanding of who we are at this moment and what we should become in the next.

If these actions are correctly directed toward the Creator and properly define the initial and final states, we thereby draw the Creator’s light, a special force that fulfills our desire. It is then that changes occur within us.
