A Guarantee For Ascent

Question: What can a person do who has achieved a particular spiritual level and has fallen from it?

Answer: The person needs to prepare a guarantee for himself even before the descent so he will descend and rise correctly. This guarantee is found solely and only in the society that surrounds the person, in the group.

If a person is with the group in an optimal state, then it will always help and take him out of any state; this is called making a covenant.
