| First let us clarify the real meaning of growth. Usually people do not think profoundly enough when | 178 THE UNIVERSAL PRINCIPLE OF GROWTH DYNAMICS |

| be aware of these two sides of the growth process. The balance of conscious effort and relaxation | 178 THE UNIVERSAL PRINCIPLE OF GROWTH DYNAMICS |
| effort and discipline with relaxation. Each step of growth, each victory over conflict, confusion, ignorance and helplessness | 178 THE UNIVERSAL PRINCIPLE OF GROWTH DYNAMICS |

| no way out is a denial of the growth process that life always is. Your willingness to | 178 THE UNIVERSAL PRINCIPLE OF GROWTH DYNAMICS |
| is a description of the path of dynamic growth. Use your voluntary faculties to make room in | 178 THE UNIVERSAL PRINCIPLE OF GROWTH DYNAMICS |
| is to occur. Where emotional, psychological and spiritual growth is concerned, the investment of the mind and | 178 THE UNIVERSAL PRINCIPLE OF GROWTH DYNAMICS |

| simple fashion you will find that resistance to growth is fear. Your insistence on remaining as you | 178 THE UNIVERSAL PRINCIPLE OF GROWTH DYNAMICS |
| you possess. Once you choose this power freely, growth becomes adventure and joy. Many people increase their | 178 THE UNIVERSAL PRINCIPLE OF GROWTH DYNAMICS |
| the unification of the inner world. Real spiritual growth and mastery on the inner level, spontaneous unification | 178 THE UNIVERSAL PRINCIPLE OF GROWTH DYNAMICS |

| relationships represent a tremendously important aspect of human growth. The power and significance of relationship often pose | 180 THE SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE OF HUMAN RELATIONSHIP |
| which is such an important aspect of the growth process, largely comes from wanting to absolve yourself | 180 THE SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE OF HUMAN RELATIONSHIP |
| to find other partners for a truly mutual growth process. When two equals relate, both carry the | 180 THE SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE OF HUMAN RELATIONSHIP |
| recognized for its inner meaning and thus the growth process is kept up. Both will recognize their | 180 THE SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE OF HUMAN RELATIONSHIP |
| the destructiveness of the less developed one makes growth, harmony, and good feelings impossible, or in which | 180 THE SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE OF HUMAN RELATIONSHIP |
| sever the connection has been made because of growth, rather than as a result of spite, fear | 180 THE SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE OF HUMAN RELATIONSHIP |
| the direct relationship between enduring pleasure and inner growth? Do they use the inevitable difficulties in the | 180 THE SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE OF HUMAN RELATIONSHIP |
| feelings are a testimony to one's state of growth. To the degree they are heeded, the interaction | 180 THE SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE OF HUMAN RELATIONSHIP |
| relationship must always be deeply connected with personal growth. The moment a relationship is experienced as irrelevant | 180 THE SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE OF HUMAN RELATIONSHIP |
| a relationship is experienced as irrelevant to inner growth, left on its own, as it were, it | 180 THE SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE OF HUMAN RELATIONSHIP |
| are not recognized as a mirror for inner growth, so they gradually wear out. The first steam | 180 THE SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE OF HUMAN RELATIONSHIP |
| is understood and brought out into the open, growth will proceed at maximum speed, and, in the | 180 THE SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE OF HUMAN RELATIONSHIP |

| but it is nevertheless true. The rhythm of growth can then proceed smoothly, without the leaps and | 183 THE SPIRITUAL MEANING OF CRISIS |
| have spoken, thus doubly strengthening you. Continue your growth, in the spirit of this lecture, so that | 183 THE SPIRITUAL MEANING OF CRISIS |
