Question: If a friend reveals his desire, does that give me something to work on to fulfill it?

Answer: That is incorrect. That is not how it works. The fulfillment of a friend’s desire is the work of the Creator.

Question: Then how should we work? For example, we have a great friend. We met with him before the gathering of friends, exchanged opinions, and united. He somehow drew me closer to himself, and I felt his desire. During the gathering of friends, I felt him as I did not feel myself; I was like him.

Answer: This is not a good action, because in this way he attaches you to himself and deprives you of freewill.

Question: Then I am sure that this problem exists for everyone. It exists in families and couples. In families, usually the stronger one kind of attaches the other to themselves. Should it be the same with a friend?

Answer: No, family is a completely different matter. Leave earthly sensations aside. This is incorrect.

There are people who can give another person a sense of a small upper illumination and thus attach him to themselves. This is wrong. By doing this, they deprive the person of freedom, the realization of action. This should not be done.

For a while, I had a teacher who liked to play with this. But when I moved to Rabash, this completely stopped. Rabash never used this.

Showing a person upper actions, the quality of bestowal, the spiritual world, before he can perceive and exist in it himself is not allowed because you deprive a person of the freedom of development. It is like giving a child the solutions to the tasks set before him, which harms him.
