It’s like when you look at the other political party that you think is doing the wrong thing for the wrong reasons, and you think “these people need something. they have reasons that would be just as valid to me if I were in their position and conditions. opposing them can only make it worse. how can these needs and fears be addressed?” and then you search yourself for the related divisive concepts and egoistic desires, and study, and ask the Creator to intervene.
And then you look at the others who are like you, and want the right things, but some ways they go about it or their opinions might repulse you because they’re a different person. And you can see and feel that dissonance there because you ego just doesn’t understand what the benefit is of dealing with them, of trying to understand. But you go above that and work on your theory of mind. You think “this person is actually me, but it’s the part of me I can’t feel. They need something and only the Creator can get it for them. And I am the one with contact with the Creator. How do I tell the Creator what is needed, when the Creator only hears what is genuine, authentic, true, and heartfelt? I put myself in that other person’s place, so I can use my imagination to feel what they feel… and if I do this well enough, the Creator will reveal the connection so that I really can feel that part of myself.”
