Some crave money; others want power or fame, etc…Everything around us is impregnated with somebody else’s desires. Only one thing can save one’s soul: an even deeper connection with the purpose of creation. We have to build a surrounding layer, a screen, around ourselves. This screen will protect us from outside obstacles that attempt to distract, seduce or frighten a person. If we cannot construct the protective shield that will shelter us from all the useless folly of this world, we will not able to progress spiritually.
