Inner Connection – Only Above the Barrier

Q: We speak a lot about the work in groups, about connections between the group members, and about the means for cohesion. Should there be some inner bond among the group members and, if possible, how can it be achieved before crossing the barrier? Can one rely on a teacher’s help to attain such an inner bond?

A: Unity is achieved only by attaining necessary properties; nothing can ever be gained forcefully or artificially in the inner (spiritual) world. Hence, as we enter the Higher World and attain the Creator’s properties, we should unite with our friends (and with our teacher).
