Speaker A
That is normal. It is normal that when you come to your own wholeness, you are not interested in people. I generally encountered the fact that when I reached my own wholeness, I realized that very rare communication with those
Speaker A
I love is enough for me. And I don't need to constantly understand them, try to understand them, and get involved in their situations. And you really start to love your solitude. When you have order within, when you are at home with
Speaker A
yourself, you don't need other houses, you don't need to go visiting, because everything is built within your own home. You have a fireplace, you have a soft sofa, you have a rug, your fridge is full, and you can go and create the
Speaker A
conditions for yourself in which you will be happy. Therefore, people who go through their own evolution most often begin to distance themselves from certain people with whom there is no match. And it's like, as I like to say,
Speaker A
an experienced skier and an inexperienced one. And you remain in your own process. And those who cannot keep up, they start to take offense.
Speaker A
They start to take offense, get angry, they have some kind of resentment. But you shouldn't take responsibility for this. It is not your responsibility to be answerable for other people's feelings. Just stop doing all of that, damn it. People who take offense, get
Speaker A
upset, make assumptions—that is solely their problem, their prism, their capacity to contain, the information they are capable of handling. I am not obliged to contain anyone but myself. If there is some claim against me, all I ever say is,
Speaker A
"Yes, I acknowledge and accept that," and I step out of the game. I take all the blame upon myself. There is no point in explaining anything to anyone.
Speaker A
There is absolutely no point, because in any case, you have already remained the guilty one in that person's mind.
Speaker A
It's all simple. Thank you.
