Each time we must choose the best possible environment, meaning, to see the friends as more corrected than what my egoism shows me. Naturally, this doesn’t mean jumping from one place to another. While remaining with the same friends, I must continually elevate their level in my eyes and value them more and more. This depends solely on me, not on them.

It is forbidden to discuss the spiritual state of a friend, only his external actions. In truth, we do not know the inner spiritual state of our friends. We only need to see what is happening with them and to help each one be in the most correctly inspired state possible.

Question: Am I not allowed to criticize a friend or say he’s in a descent?

Answer: No. We can only do this through the group: by the whole group rising, we lift him as well.
