When Faith Compels Action

261Question: What does it mean that regardless of my state, faith will compel me to action?

Answer: When you see that if you remain inactive, you will fall and drag others down with you, then this compels you to act and support others.

Question: How do you rise and fall to the degrees of friends to feel them while remaining on your degree?

Answer: For this, you must perform all actions and strive for your friends to rise with you, and you will unite on a common upper degree.

External and Internal Work

592.01Question: If I became entangled in evil, how can I get out of this state and what should I ask my friends for?

Answer: Then you need to work within yourself.

And Again Up, and Again Higher

41.01Question: What is the difference between the preparation stage and the state when a person is already in adhesion with the Creator? Is the stage of revealing evil behind us?

Answer: No, everything continues because the steps go up.

You rise’ there are problems, there is a solution, there is adhesion, and so on. And up again, and up again. Therefore, for us, this is only the beginning of the ladder of spiritual ascent.

The Power of Purification

239Question: Why is the desire to bestow called the power of purification?

Answer: It purifies our egoistic desire and completely orients it toward bestowal.

Question: Now we are praying out of selfishness. What will help us move on to true prayer so that it comes from the quality of bestowal?

Answer: The Creator gradually, imperceptibly to us, changes our desires and sensations so we move from one part of understanding our nature to another.

In the ten this transition is carried out individually for everyone: for one sooner, for another later, depending on one’s qualities and actions.

However, we do not need anything but an urgent request to the Creator, tenacity, and perseverance.

Despite Criticism

942Question: When we try to annul ourselves in front of our friends, criticism immediately arises about what we see in them. How can we work with it?

Answer: We have a desire to criticize everyone and not leave any actions we see without criticism.

This quality is inherent in us initially in the form of desire. But if we do not want to agree with it, then we gradually eradicate this desire from ourselves.

Raise Faith above Reason

567.01Question: What does it mean to be in the properties of bestowal, in the properties of faith based on reason, above reason?

Answer: This means that you do not take into account reason, knowledge, but only faith above reason and act in this property.

You need to clearly understand what your egoism requires of you, limit it, and include only those properties that are higher than the ego.

Question: Does the ten receive faith first and then each receives private faith from it? Or do we add up our private faiths into the ten and get the faith of the ten on a different level?

Answer: We receive a common faith, and we share it among us according to our efforts.
