Question: You say that transitions from stage to stage are adaptations for receiving the force of bestowal so that it does not feel like hell to us. Does this period of preparation give us the ability to withstand the upper light that may seem terrible to an unprepared person?

Answer: Yes, of course. It seems terrible because it is the light of bestowal, the light of love. It is very difficult to bear.

Would you not run away from too much love, even if it is egoistic? It is very difficult to bear it. It takes possession of you, puts pressure on you, obligates you, and you are not able to just be “under it,” as they say. It suffocates, conquers, and deprives you of your freedom. We prefer freedom above love. Why do we need a love that takes away our freedom?

On the contrary, in spirituality there is no freedom without love and no love without freedom. After all, by connecting with everyone in common love, interconnection, mutual assistance, and complementarity, you gain unlimited freedom in this new connection.
