Bank - analogy with the human being

04/27/2004

The only way to rightfully resolve your relationships with others is to constantly keep in mind the concept of the two natures: lower and higher. Trust only the divine nature both in yourself and in others. A human being is like a bank in which you deposit capital. So be vigilant, make sure first of all that the ‘bank' you are addressing is solid and reliable, or you will risk losing everything. And since you too are a bank, strive to be a trustworthy one. It is not merely a question of whether or not you can trust others; ask yourself if they too can trust you, and do your best to merit this trust. It is this above all that must concern you.
