Context in the novel: 
Jane and Elizabeth discuss Darcy and Wickham
Principles: 
Having to relate such a thing about his sister – It is such a spur to one’s genius, such an opening for wit to have dislike of that kind
Topics discussed: 
Taking life for granted, pity, sympathy, compassion and grace, form dominating the content, manners, appearance, love, possessiveness, intensity, energy that comes from dislike, genius
Questions raised: 

Why do things go wrong when we take anything for granted?
Do we have to give importance to whatever meager things we have, in order to get new things?
What exactly are pity, sympathy, compassion and grace, why do they each have their own consequence?
How to get rid of possessiveness?
If we are possessive, are we weak, vulnerable at those points?
What does it show about us if we have the least tolerance?
Are the experiences the soul gets predetermined, or does the soul determine what it gets?
When the soul is between births, is it conscious enough to choose what it wants?
The soul goes to a psychic world and chooses what it wants. Then why does it come back from there? But it seems like a swimmer is weighed down with a heavy coat and forced to swim.
After reaching the supramental plane, do we experience joy?
Why should I be in this plane at all, why not choose another plane where there is no ego?
