 YOU WILL GROW RICH

Self-knowledge is good, knowing the other is even better, and you don't need to know yourself first to only then know the other, because a good part of your dear self-knowledge depends on knowing the image that others have of you, even if this is distorted and far from what you want.

In addition, you will realize that your beloved self-knowledge also passes through the gaze of the “other”, a philosophy that speaks about you, a character who reads your being, a lecture, there will always be a search through others in self-knowledge.

Knowing the other is also knowing your own soul, because aware of what you have in common with other people, you will also know how to better measure your existential crises, since most of these are not of a particular nature, they come from the dimension that you share with your similar and different ones.

Some “others” provoke contempt, others attraction, some are still indifferent to you, but there will always be “others”, and it is not convenient to use the cliché “hell is other people”, the author of the phrase was a materialistic cynic.

If you treat “others” like hell, you will become materially and spiritually impoverished, because you will no longer live your human condition.

You will enrich yourself materially and spiritually by recognizing that it is more what we have in common than what is different between all of us, and you will recognize one day that there are no “others”, that consciousness is One, that the Life of all lives manifests itself in diversity, but remains One as well.
