[Alexandr Korol]

I’m shy, embarrassed by it. So — and this someone, yes, the voice, God, the
Spirit, told me — or showed me — that people, as of the Spirit, must appease me.
To appease the Spirit. And that when people understand, and believe in me, and
understand who I am, then everything in their lives will right away work out.

And the more people resist me, laugh at me, joke, and don’t take me seriously, the
harder everything will be in their lives. And the Spirit showed me this, he said
this — that I have to dare to say this, to start saying this to close people, to even
hint at it — that, figuratively speaking, if a person has a problem, and I go and tell
him: “Are you going to treat me well now? Just think well of me. Do something
for me? Wash the floors, give me flowers — and the problem will be solved.” I tell
the voice that I won’t be able to say something like this to people, that it’s over the
top, that they will consider me crazy. And the voice tells me that this is inevitable,
that I must gather my courage, and that this is inevitable — that it will be so all
the same. That the future that is now coming will consist in this — that there is
no point in my advising a person on something, no point in teaching a person
anything, no point in helping a person with work, no point in giving advice on
solving a problem — as if there will soon be no point in any of this, because any
solving of a problem will be solved by how a person treats me. So that’s how it is.
And that soon all people will gradually be understanding this, and everyone in
time will understand.

And I remembered how Big Alexander, to one person — our namesake
Alexander — who had problems… I may have even mentioned this story
somewhere in some book. So — Big Alexander advised our common acquaintance
that: “If you give Alexandr Korol a gift, then your problems, possibly, will be
solved.” And Big Alexander insisted that this person give me at least something.
And that one didn’t understand what — and in the end he gave me a Torah, a
collector’s book, leather-bound, so that his problems would be solved. Do you
understand how this works? So that’s how it is. But this person — I don’t know
whether his problems were solved or not. I simply don’t communicate with
him. But this person, he didn’t believe in all of this and in me very much, and
so, possibly, when they insist so and tell him to do it, naturally it won’t work.
He should have guessed it, thought it up himself, done it with faith — then yes,
