    Thank you for this answer:) How can I keep any sort of confidence in getting to bestowal, while all I feel is my ego trying to navigate me to a place it wants for me? Even if I focus on the friends, it seems egoistical, because behind any of my actions, unless I can annul myself for a moment, my ego makes all these calculations. And any minute I am not fully aware of what I am doing, I get distracted and absorbed with corporeal issues. And when after a while I resurface, more or less, I see the opportunities I have missed to connect, to be there for a friend. I feel I wish to be able to really feel „faith“, but is it possible to get there, and then even to remain there at one point? I can love the friends, and want for them, but it feels, even that is a calculation of my ego. So, whatever I do, it gets me back to myself. What is the right approach?

    Hi Gianni, I read the transkription of the lesson on Shamati, and I felt it to be really helpful.

    There was this one question saying… that while as we reveal more , “that a person measures his true state nearing the Creator through faith in the Creator?”

    What is faith in the creator in this context?

    Hi Gianni, thanks for answering all these questions:) I understand our substance is that of a lack. What is the substance of a ten then?

    Adding to this… what is the importance of internal individual work as compared to the work in the ten? I feel, the ten is the sacred space to connect, grow, learn about bestowal. But as well it feels like an organism of itself, and I am just a part, and every part is needed.. So, what importance should I give individual internal work, and how to relate it to the work in the ten?
