We must remember that we are all in the same boat and are parts of one soul.

That is why when such a large number of people striving for spirituality gather together, as at the upcoming convention, each person must understand that this is a gift from above. The Creator has given me the opportunity to participate in such a special event where parts of my own soul come closer to me.

And if I relate to them this way, understanding that I have found myself in an assembly of the closest souls ready to connect with me, and if each of us thinks and feels this way, then it will not be difficult at all!

Everything depends on preparation. I must constantly prepare myself and tune in to think, act, and feel exactly this way when I get there.

It does not matter whether it happens today in one place or tomorrow in another, time and space determine nothing! But this exercise, where I intentionally think today about how it will be tomorrow, will help me later when all the conditions come together at the convention to reach the necessary collective effort.

This is extremely important and determines everything. After that, it will be easy. It is like preparation before a battle.

If everything is ready, and you are ready to give everything for spirituality, you will see how everything unfolds exactly as you envisioned. If you have put in sincere and great efforts from the depths of your heart, everything will happen accordingly. There will be no unpleasant surprises, everything will be good.

Imagine a gang of thieves gathering in the dark, preparing for a dangerous mission to rob a bank. Each of them feels dependent on the others and cares about the group. We have something to learn from them.

The only difference is the goal. If the goal is egoistic and obvious, achieving unity is very easy and natural.

But if the goal is to attain bestowal, to rise above each person’s personal egoistic interests, then it becomes much harder.

Yet, even in examples of our world, we see the immense benefit that unity brings. The only problem is that nothing can sustain it except the upper light. Only love can hold a connection together.
