And this comes to him only through bonding with the society and the envy that he feels toward the friends when he sees that they have better qualities than his own. It motivates him to acquire their good qualities, which he doesn\u2019t have and of which he is jealous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, through the society, he gains new qualities that he adopts by seeing that they are at a higher degree than his, and he is envious of them. This is the reason why now he can be greater than when he didn\u2019t have a society, since he acquires new powers through the society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\">Rabash, Rabash\u2014the Social Writings,<br>\u201cConcerning Above Reason\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Our sages said, \u201cCounters\u2019 envy increases wisdom.\u201d In other words, when all the friends look at the society as being at a high level, both in thoughts and in actions, it is natural that each and every one must raise his degree to a higher level than he has by the qualities of his own body. \u2026Thus, now he has new qualities that society has procreated in him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\">Rabash, Rabash\u2014the Social Writings,<br>\u201cConcerning Above Reason\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>If he sees that the friends are at a higher degree than his own, he sees within reason how he is in utter lowliness compared to the friends, that all the friends keep the schedule of arriving at the seminary, and take greater interest in all that is happening among the friends, to help anyone in any way they can, and immediately implement every advice for the work from the teachers in actual fact, etc., it certainly affects him and gives him strength to overcome his laziness, both when he needs to wake up before dawn and when he is awakened.
