one." I repeat that meditation is a tool, and who sincerely wants to reach spiritual heights
and is not lazy to develop himself, he can understand the maximum already during this
life.
Anastasia: This is all true. But I faced a situation when a lot of people instead of not
losing valuable time and rushing to change themselves, look for an example of a
spiritual person in life, in other words, someone who has already changed himself. For
them, it is important that some person were already living like this, according to the
