Question: Does a person who reveals the Creator gain freedom or does he still have to go through various stages in order to attain it?
Answer: If you acquire even one percent of the Creator’s quality, you become completely free of the egoism that is revealed within you. And then another level of egoism appears; the inner “snake” rears its head again and says: “I am still here!” And you must rise above it again.
Question: But making an effort to rise above it takes time: days or even months. Does that mean that during this time I am not free and I experience freedom only after I have risen above it?
Answer: You want to measure spiritual states by approaching them with material tools.
The thing is, you obtain freedom for only a moment and only in order to become aware that there are still more levels of without freedom within you, above which you need to rise until you attain the degree of full correction.
Question: By rising above my egoism, I become free from it and not from the Creator?
Answer: The Creator is the quality of love and bestowal. How can this quality not be considered freedom? If you only want to bestow, emanate love, you have no limitations on this.
Remark: But I am still not free since I am dependent on those to whom I want to bestow, whether or not they receive, and so on.
My Comment: No, this is different kind of thinking. And that is why it is impossible to explain it from within the framework of our ordinary, everyday thought.
