How one comes into contact with evolution and real life by recognising one's imperfection
As previously mentioned, it is not insensitivity, boasting and pride or the worship of a camouflaged or false stage in evolution that we long to find in our "neighbour".
It is exclusively "love".
It is "love" that is the great and profound aim behind every terrestrial human quest.
But "love" cannot exist without being the same as "humility".
And as previously mentioned, "humility" is the same as the absolute recognition of the "perfection" and "imperfection" of one's own being, this self-knowledge in turn being the same as the absolutely true recognition of the "living being".
If one recognises one's own "perfection", one becomes respectful towards all those who have reached a level of "perfection" that is above one's own.
One comes to love them as ideals and examples for one's own endeavours towards "perfection", thereby unlocking these beings' energy, delight and joy by having us as proselytes, pupils and co-workers.
We have connected ourselves to evolution's own great source of energy and are carried forwards and upwards by it towards the highest pinnacles of mentality and life.
