Episode 10 - with Robert Loretz on the ecstatic and interior dimensions of friendship
Here is an excerpt from the final draft of Robert's thesis on friendship:
'Spiritual love not only makes us stronger for the other, equipping us with a preparedness to go beyond our normal limits for her, it also renders us more relative and receptive, blossoming all the way to eventually regarding the other as another self.'
This quote forms the basis for our discussion on friendship. Enjoy!
