The other
« This is « the other » who is the challenge of the life !
All what I can teach you, it is that « the other exits ! »
Do you understand ?»
Christian
" It is because for the majority of people, the other does not exist, that one imposes one’s own rhythms and one’s own wills on him. We do no longer speak, at this level, of ordinary rhythms; we are in energy, the vitality of the creatrive life. When the other does not exist, we are the center of the world, the center of the space. Whatever one does or says, everything must always turn around oneself. One judges according to one’s impressions and sensations.
This is a blessing to intimately know that the other exists.
A true blessing !
From this moment, one has abandoned the center of the world. One has no more center. One does no longer function regarding a stake to which one is attached, whatever the length of the tether is. Something extraordinary happens then: ONE HAS FORGOTTEN ONESELF ! Those who do not escape to this center, never forget themselves. »

« To move everything without moving anything, to pass the most quietly and the most meanly possible in a space, not to disturb, not to hustle and to pay enormously attention to the emotional nourishment to the life, enormously attention to the other. I say well: an enormous attention to the other. To pay attention to the other, it is to know intimately in the deepest of you that the other is made of two parts: there is this splendid Dignity, this Force of Creation, this splendid Light that you see, and around this splendid Light, there are the onion skins, with the result that the person is not automatically physically pretty. And all of a sudden, one is confronted with this not beautiful side of the person. Whereas one knows that there is inside each one this Perfection, this sublime Light, and to pay attention to the other, it is quite simply to be deeply interested by the sublime Light that there is in each one.
And it is not easy, because the first contact is with this greasy, not beautiful body. And sometimes it is difficult, if one looks at external side to be convinced that behind this not beautiful side, there is this Light. Thus you are obliged to see that internal side, because you, you know what occurs and you have a vision of the Light, and you only look at that, because Love is pleased in Love, Gentleness likes Gentleness, and you do not discuss anymore with the reasoned intelligence, you like the beauty at the other. You are concerned with the Dignity in the other. And this enormous interest that you have for his beauty and his dignity does that, finally, you do not even see anymore this so heavy body. »
Christian
« Understand well, one does not act by moving the other to obtain a nourishment which is of good quality, one does not even occupy of our own nourishment, one has a complete concern of the other, one has an essential concern, and it is that which leads to this right action…»

that the other is only himself and
that it is not used to fight him. »

"He had perceived the Illumination under the control of the Roshi. He had seen the Force of the Life beyond the form and appearances.
Then, why he asked to him news of “the other”. He had never seen one “other” in this perception.
And now, he knows that there is another one and that him, he can strike his forehead against the wood of the parquet because he is stupid and that he has always been so.
...
He said to him “Come now”. Because it was time to rise as a man who is held upright because he had finally seen “the other”. Then, now he knows WHO walks. “Now” is the word which takes its importance. Insane that he was to have believed that the Illumination had taught everything to him !"
