Question: The closer we come together, the more we drift apart, right?

Answer: The more egoism is revealed within us, the greater the connection we can build above it, and in so doing, we can perceive the Creator. This state is like a sandwich made of three layers: at the bottom is the egoistic quality (reception), on top is the quality of giving, and between them is the Creator.

Question: If we know in advance that closeness will lead to hatred, how can we move toward closeness?

Answer: The fact that you know this in advance does not matter. When rejection and hatred toward your friends arise, you will forget everything. You will think it is your personal problem, that you and no one else is doing this.

But after experiencing discord with your friends, you will begin to rise above this feeling. No tricks or preparations for the future will help you remain “good.” A new degree comes with new sensations and interactions, and all previous understandings and corrections no longer apply. A person is new every day.

So don’t dwell on what happened yesterday. You may look at the outward appearance of a friend, which you are familiar with, but inside, we are entirely different every day.
