We always forget that the effort of the soul is not precious and important when you are talking with spiritually close people, but quite the opposite. Only one good, but great and true, was given to man: to have the consciousness that he is the manifestation of God (the spiritual principle). This good consists in the fact that the man with the consciousness that he is the manifestation of God has, through the union with God, everything he wants, does not encounter obstacles and knows without fail that his life has the meaning that he recognizes in it. But the man who has the consciousness that he is a personality does not have and can never have what he wants, meets obstacles everywhere and does not know the meaning of his life, even if even a life like his cannot be without meaning.

Romanian

"Mereu uităm că efortul sufletesc nu e prețios și important când stai de vorbă cu oameni apropiați spiritual, ci tocmai invers. Un singur bine, dar mare și adevărat, i-a fost dat omului: a avea conștiința că este manifestarea lui Dumnezeu (principiul spiritual). Binele acesta constă în faptul că omul cu conștiința ca e manifestarea lui Dumnezeu are, prin unirea cu Dumnezeu, tot ce dorește, nu întâmpină obstacole și știe fără greș ca viața lui are acel sens pe care îl recunoaște în ea. Însă omul care are conștiința ca e o personalitate n-are și nu poate avea niciodată ce dorește, întâlnește obstacole pretutindeni și nu cunoaște însemnătatea vieții lui, chiar dacă nici măcar o viața ca a lui nu poate fi lipsită de semnificație."
