But the instructor had to go through the same cruelty once at a certain period in his life. But sometimes the greatest cruelty is the greatest kindness. It is hard, but the hardest path can be conquered by this. And if I were to speak about it in simple words it is in this way: how many times we take to heart unnecessary things, how many times we cause or we take interest in disharmony which could just as well not have been avoided. How often we resist evil which could just as well not have been resisted. This is all playing life, and what I have said before is playing death. When we play death we arrive at life. When we play life we arrive at death.
