We connect with others by seeing them as friends and as we are admonished to love our neighbor (friends) as ourselves. We honor each other by putting aside the ego to achieve the love that the Creator desires us to have for each other. We view others as more important than ourselves.
“It is a spiritual, unselfish union that creates a shared vessel to reveal the Creator and transform the ego into a force of bestowal.”
“This goes beyond simple kindness to mean actively looking out for a friend’s needs, respecting their unique, different nature, and building a common soul together.”
Our desire should be to bring people closer to the Light of the Creator.
i think the lessons thus far have said that the type of connection to others entails acknowledging their concerns and letting them know and feel that i really do care about their concerns, which means they see in me someone they can trust and the connection from me to the other person is maintained, which over time deepens. Likewise, if another person acts toward me in that way, i begin to feel and consider that person trustworthy and in that regard i allow myself to feel connected ‘back’ to them incrementally, in proportion to their continued standpoint of altruistic concern (which, unfortunately may drop off soon after a certain degree of trust is reciprocated.); the common plight, the common desire, would be in everyone’s desire to be distanced from egotism and attain higher levels of spiritual experience.
