Question: What is this feeling when, after a lesson, you start missing your friends, feeling them as parts of your body you cannot be without; that is, you constantly want to be one with them?
Answer: This is the right feeling. Keep studying, complete all assigned tasks for the groups, and you will see yourself rise out of this state upward.

Question: How does the revelation of the face of the Creator as benevolent in His governance occur? After all, everything we attain is attained in faith above reason, as if we do not want to reveal Him directly.
Answer: If a person tunes himself to truly desire to reveal the attitude of the Creator toward him, and not only toward him, then according to the pressure he applies, according to his desire, he elicits a response from the Creator.
It turns out that he turns to the Creator with a question in order to know the Creator’s attitude toward him, and he receives an answer.

Question: What is this state when you feel the whole world filled with the quality of bestowal, but you do not feel the Creator in it?
Answer: That is an incorrect state. In your world, in your perception of spirituality, the Creator Himself does not exist.
This requires serious reflection from you and a demand that He begins to engage with you, that you desire to be together with Him and to do what is pleasing to Him. Then you wait for Him to fulfill it.

Question: It is very important for a person to feel that their life has meaning. Is the meaning of life universal for everyone or must each person find their own meaning?
Answer: We all have one meaning of life: to reach the peak of human development and to attain the higher force that created us and governs us. We can draw closer to it, understand it, know it, and become its partners. The meaning of our life lies in attaining this force. According to how creation is arranged, there is no other meaning.
We did not create nature, this world, or ourselves. We exist within a system of laws without determining what will happen to us at any given moment nor our reactions. Absolutely nothing depends on us. So what remains for us within this entire system in which we are like fish caught in a net?
We are embedded in a system of forces that act in all possible forms and combinations with one another on all levels: still, vegetative, animate, and human, and in all times: past, present, and future that connect me with all generations that were, are, and will be. I feel like I belong to them because essentially I am one among billions throughout the many thousands of years of history.
Therefore in searching for the meaning of life, I first analyze the day I am living now, and immediately I discover that I do not understand the meaning. If only I knew the entire process that I and nature are undergoing. But how can a small person know such lofty matters?
In that case, one has to limit oneself to searching for meaning in this temporary, brief life. This means that I no longer ask about its causes and results beyond life and death, but I look only within life itself.
And this is how people live: they want to achieve success, start a family, raise good children, travel the world, become a renowned scientist or musician, etc. Each person finds meaning in what is closest to them.
Perhaps I simply want to have fun, or work only as much as necessary, and in the evening come home and watch television without getting off the couch. That too can be considered a meaning of life.
But the problem is that we do not live according to our own plans. The engine of development continuously turns and rotates us, and pushes us forward in all feelings and qualities, in intellectual, emotional, and inner development. Therefore we change, and yesterday’s meaning of life loses its meaning today. My former childhood dreams have already evaporated.
For example, my grandson at the age of three dreamed of becoming a garbage-truck driver. It seemed to him the pinnacle of happiness: to be the person who controls such a huge machine and makes such a tremendous noise. Today my grandson is ten, and of course he no longer dreams of a garbage truck.
In other words, the meaning of life constantly grows. But does a person living in this world understand what the meaning of life is, or does he or she simply, under the weight of problems, agree with what is? He is not concerned whether there is meaning or not. What matters to him or her is feeling good.
I remember asking my teacher in school about the meaning of life, and I received this answer: the meaning of life is to read a good book, to watch an interesting film…
And a friend of mine, from the age of fourteen, devoted himself to studying the French Thirty Years War. He made it the work of his life and truly became a major specialist on the subject. That is how he found his meaning of life, although later this passion faded.
So everyone finds some meaning in life—in family, in children. But if you ask people what the meaning of their everyday life is, they will not know how to answer, or they will say that the meaning of life is simply to live. If we were born, then now there is nowhere to go; we must live. But for what purpose to live, no one knows. And thus life continues without any meaning.

There is a special phenomenon in the influence of society on a person. If I face a problem together with a large society, it is divided among everyone and I do not feel that I am alone with it. If I were to fall ill with a rare and severe disease, I would be terribly anxious. But if it is an epidemic and everyone around is sick, then it is not as frightening.
The trouble is instantly shared with the entire society where I am simply one among all. Therefore, my fear is no longer the full fear of the problem itself, but it is divided among everyone else, reduced to one millionth. This happens regardless of my desire, because I am connected with others in one system. So, my relative part in the common trouble is only one millionth.
This does not mean that the trouble will not happen to me, it will happen. But the feeling of fear and threat is divided among everyone in the perception of people. To the extent that I am connected with others, I worry less about hardships.
But if joy comes, it does not decrease when shared by all. Because joy is felt together with everyone. Misfortune is felt within oneself, but joy is felt outside, between us. The benevolent force that created the entire world acts on everyone and is not divided. If joy comes, everyone rejoices in full measure.
Moreover, shared joy increases the joy of each one. For example, news comes of victory in a war. That joy is not divided by a million, leaving me with one millionth of happiness. On the contrary, it is multiplied by a million, and I feel joy a million times greater! I go out into the street, see everyone celebrating, and I am filled with happiness, completely differently than if I were alone at home.
The force of unity has a unique, wondrous quality. It divides misfortune among all, while multiplying joy and happiness among all. This follows from the very source of creation, from the fact that we emerged from the point of the Big Bang, from one single force.
Therefore, today we reveal that all of nature is one system. The closer we come to this force, the more we resemble the unified system of nature, the more we gain, and we gain greatly, instead of one millionth, we get one multiplied by a million!
If, through integral education, we learned to use this correctly, we would attain the pinnacle of happiness.
