Thanks for that.  I will 'go' and have a look at what Judge says there about
that phrase, and then reflect a bit.  I am deeply interested in how 'we'
(meaning the 'individuality', the "I am I") can become a "Friend of Self" in
our daily lived experience and importantly how we can help each other
towards "Self working for SELF" as I would phrase it.

Tony,  would you say something about what this qoute meant for you - perhaps
in relation to the questions I was asking, or simply just how you understand
it?

Best wishes,

Peter
