“When you observe society you can see lonely people everywhere – from children to the elderly. Adults enjoy a special status, as they are the ones who are active and who can search actively. Very many people suffer from loneliness, unable to do anything about their situation.
You should realize that lonely people and people who live in seclusion fall by the wayside because they belong to a society not capable of seeing this. If you were able to perceive this problem you would also be able to find potential solutions.
Each society finds its own solutions to this problem. In some countries two people are brought together, regardless of any personal love for each other, in the hope that love will eventually grow between them, which is often the case. People may learn to know each other and when this happens this often leads to love – love that we will call human love, for I am not speaking here of divine love, which is something totally different, but of human love, which you could call sexuality supported by affection. This kind of love can grow between people and can be discovered little by little.
Therefore people can begin, always begin by becoming friends. People shouldn’t ignore friendship because it can evolve to a real relationship.
If two people don’t begin by being friends, no relationship can grow, nothing can come of it because then it is just as if they were strangers to each other and they will always remain so. But often people don’t dare to be friends. On the other hand they often start too soon with sexuality and engage in hasty relationships and then a certain power of sacrifice is involved because when one begins too soon with a relationship it often ends more quickly.
When one begins too soon with a relationship it often ends more quickly.
Much harm could be avoided if only people were more gentle in the beginning, if they were more realistic and if they took their own feelings as well as the others’ feelings into consideration – which is something very complex and involves many things.
People come from a certain background. They have a past and usually have many problems that they have yet to work out. If then they begin with a new relationship, it doesn’t work because they are not themselves and so cannot be themselves.
More people would be able to enter into a relationship if they were helped to discover their true selves. But mind you, a relationship is always difficult, is always a struggle, always involves adaptation. It is certainly not simple. People are often much better off on their own than in a relationship. It is preferable not to have a relationship at all than to have a relationship that lays waste to life. This, too, you must dare to take into consideration. Thus there are many facets that are involved in having relationships.
It is preferable not to have a relationship at all than to have a relationship that lays waste to life.
In general I encourage people to explicitly ask themselves: “Firstly, what do I want myself? Secondly, am I prepared to take this step now? And finally, don’t I think that sooner or later I could do better?”
It is not such a simple matter to learn to know yourself within a relationship.
This introspection makes a person look at him or herself and this is often enough to make them view their fellow human beings with an open mind. It helps them realize that it is not such a simple matter to learn to know yourself within a relationship. Knowing this makes having a relationship much easier.
You should first become yourself. If you don’t you will have to become yourself within the relationship which can be even more difficult and which can cause a lot of harm."

“Venturing to becoming himself or herself and daring to do things that are important is man’s great urge. But many things get in the way of this such as the elements of fear and anxiety. The element of the material plays a part too, as does the mirroring element. So does rest, when it is seen as an achievement. Man will say to himself, “When I rest, I’m doing something that’s good for myself,” and so rest becomes an achievement.
But rest is not an achievement. Rest is something that follows a tension. Only after you have experienced a tension can you come to a real rest. For if you don’t have tension and if you don’t dare endure it – if in other words, you don’t dare experience the poles – then you cannot come to a real rest.
Only after you have experienced a tension can you come to a real rest. If you don’t have tension and if you don’t dare endure it, then you cannot come to a real rest.
If, as a woman, you never dare be a woman and don’t allow a man to be a man, then you can’t ever come to relaxation, to real rest. For then you won’t have had the feeling that there has been a tension, that there has been a polarity, and this is necessary in life.
This alternation is necessary and is brought into life by pushing the polarities to the extreme, by a man becoming a man, ever more and always different.
For becoming a man is a process, a growth. You are not a man, you become a man just as you are not a woman but you become a woman. This is very peculiar, for it is possible to be a woman in a thousand different ways, just as it is possible to be a man in a thousand different ways.
It is a real challenge to become what you are.
It is a real challenge to become what you are. You must learn to look into the depths of existence, to focus your consciousness there and learn to go beyond the point where you are now.
What is the power that is in the life of a man and how is it possible to control it? In other words, how can you handle this power?
What is the rightful form, the depth of a woman? What energy inspires her and how can she weave her energy into her life, going always further and further, so that she can give expression to the beauty that is in her soul? These are energies that are important in life and that ‘become’ what they are.
Once you abandon rest and become active within the polarities and from there look to see what you can become, then the profound depths within begin to speak.
Venturing to do this is an important point in life, so that you don’t see only your own good but the greater good and continue in the direction of an evolution which you cannot foresee but which you learn to discover as you go along. Then you will become a new pole within the fields of development in the world.
You become unlike other people, for as you evolve, to the extent that you become more man or more woman and change, you learn to detach yourself and to situate yourself outside the reality of your family, your country and your world and you grow to be so great that the energy within you is a constant challenge for others.
As you evolve, you learn to detach yourself and to situate yourself outside the reality of your family, your country and your world.
So you can see that in certain places in the world there are people who pose a tremendous challenge for others, whom other people look at and yet fail to understand. And this is always a kind of polarity which brings renewal and which enables the world to progress.
From this longing for a greater life comes the answer to the world of what the world could become and be. The coming twenty years will show this very clearly.
The age of Aquarius is causing the relationship between people, between men and women, to change.
You will notice women becoming more woman and in different ways and men will become more man in different ways.
The age of Aquarius is causing the relationship between people, between men and women, to change, to become more defined and much more harmonious too. The polarities will come to a greater expression and therefore harmony will increase.
As a consequence love will be different. It will bear and reveal new energies and will thereby create a new understanding of what it is for example to be together as men and women.
Much more will be possible than before. This being together will enable the polarities that are present to make a greater impression upon others, causing much more to happen in life and causing life to go at a much faster pace."
The polarities will come to a greater expression and therefore harmony will increase.

“Love means that one person, while taking account of him or herself, also sees the other.
This is of the utmost importance, to be content with yourself, to be yourself and yet to be able to see the other. This is love.
Love presents a kind of challenge; “I am like this and who is the other?” This is the challenge. If I am unable to see who I am and who I show myself to be, then love is not possible. You must be able to be yourself within love.
This implies that you first start with yourself and then approach the other and are able to see him or her.
Love is to be content with yourself, to be yourself and yet to be able to see the other.
Many people can come to know themselves but fail to see the other. And this is the difficulty because a person seeing the other entails that they look at the other. And strange as it may seem, many people do not even look at the other. Many people see themselves in the other and that is where it goes wrong because this is not love.
Seeing yourself in the other is not love. I must be very precise here because this is always the mistake. So, it may be that you are able to look at the other, but you must see the other as another and as other than yourself.
Many people see themselves in the other, but this is not love.
This is an important rule of love, the fact that you must be able to silence yourself and look and listen and not think – no, not even to think about it – and yet be able to be with the other and let the other be himself or herself. This is all much more easily said than done.
(...)
To come closer to love, you must be able to see the self. You must be able to approach the self as something that has to learn to express itself. And this is not easy because you often say, “If I obeyed myself I would do this and that and that” but then you turn around and think, “What about the other, what will he or she think about it?” and this is wrong. You should dare to be yourself in the presence of the other and to let go of thoughts about what the other might think.
Unless you are able to do this you cannot come to love. So you must allow yourself to be born, so to speak. You must show yourself to be as you really are. Once you begin learning this, you will see that it gradually becomes easier and easier to do.
You should dare to be yourself in the presence of the other and to let go of thoughts about what the other might think.
Expressing this self is not easy at first because you will find that you express your thoughts. But then ask yourself, “Are these really my thoughts or am I thinking things that the other wants me to think and saying things that he or she wants me to say?” and herein lies the difference.
In this way it is possible to spend much time, maybe years, simply reiterating what others say and never really saying what you yourself would like to say. And here again is the difficulty.
“Are these really my thoughts or am I thinking things that the other wants me to think and saying things that he or she wants me to say?”
'The ballast that lies between the self and what I actually express and show myself to be may become so great, and weigh so heavily.... What I should be able to do is to ignore my education and all the things I’ve learned. But according to cultural opinion, the greater my cultural engagement is – the more distinguished I become, the more academic knowledge I can express – the more I am being myself. And yet it is just the opposite: I am myself when I express myself. But who am I? It may be that I am always busy expressing things that are not my thoughts, but which I only use to impress others or to show off how much I have stored up in my little computer or which books I have read and so on. There is always enough subject matter for conversation. But who am I? Is this really me? Am I allowing myself to speak?'"
'Who am I? Is this really me? Am I allowing myself to speak?'

“There is enormous power that emanates from people who can accept every human being. These people who hold these tensions within themselves have great love because they allow others to be themselves. This is a pole of tension.
When we look at another we may experience tension. The other thinks differently, he dresses differently, he says and does and knows different things and these are all points of tension because we don’t dare to live in these opposites.
Should we dare to live in them then we would see that this is quite feasible, not from the same level but from within a deeper one. Therefore when within yourself there is a tension that has come to a unity, a rest and a peace because you have accepted the opposites, then you will see that you can also accept them in the external world. Then you can accept the greater opposites in the external world.
When within yourself there is a tension that has come to a unity, a rest and a peace because you have accepted the opposites, then you will see that you can also accept them in the external world.
Love between people involves opposite individuals, for example, a man and a woman. This involves them in an enormous amount of tension and a very tense power. For both sexes, both powers, are searching for a union, a synthesis, a convergence.
They experience that this can become increasingly difficult, more interesting and perhaps more enjoyable but only on a certain level. For if they allow the polarities to melt and fuse, which is something that may happen momentarily, this gives the impression that ‘this must be love.’ But this love calls for more, calls one to go further, calls for a solution that is as yet not there. For love draws everything together and on all levels.
Love searches for a union, but it always call for more, calls one to go further.
At whatever stage of life you may be, love, the power of love, will always urge you to go further.
And in the mystery of love this is what you feel, that one person who loves is unlike another who loves and the love of one person is not the love of another.
For love can always grow to be more complete, more beautiful, more magnificent and nobler. I cannot find the words to describe all that love encompasses."
One person who loves is unlike another who loves and the love of one person is not the love of another.
