Accept on Faith or Attain?

3Question: How can one not turn from a person who bends himself before others, into one who simply believes in the power of the Creator and crushes himself?

Answer: I do not understand this! I nullify my corporeal properties in order to find my spiritual appearance above them, to create my soul, to mold it into the likeness of the Creator by the fact that I now rise above myself.

What does this have to do with religion and everything corporeal? After all, everything that concerns the spiritual has no relation either to the body or to our world. I reveal completely different desires!

I am my point in the heart, which relates to others, to their desires, to their points in the heart. Between these desires for the Creator in you, in me, in him, and so on, I create a network. In this network, I treat everyone as “love your neighbor as yourself”; in this network I want to feel the Creator.

From the love for the other, I wish to create such a substrate on which the common quality of bestowal and love, called the “Creator,” will be manifested. This absolutely does not exist in our bodies or in the world around us! The inner area that you reveal is a new dimension. It exists outside of matter! And then you find out that there actually is no matter!

Question: But until I attain this, do I, in principle, take everything on faith?

Answer: Start to practice this and you will see that this is actually the case.

Question: What exercises do you do? How did you motivate yourself?

Answer: I have been working very seriously on clarifying the perception of reality: What is it, where is objectivity, where is subjectivity, where is the thing in itself, where is the thing outside of me? I am within myself, I am outside of myself, some are in me, and others are outside of me.

This is how I thought all the time until I really began to more or less actually feel and perceive everything. But this is not some kind of self-conviction, but work with doubts, with internal obstacles.
