Hearing the words is not the same as reading them
A writer is like a teacher, and his readers are like students. A reader reads after this own manner and mind, and according to his mental reach and grasp at that particular time.And if his mind and conceptions are confused and wonder about darkness, he finds difficulty in seeing the light, the good light, that is concealed in the books
Intelects and minds
Not all intelects and minds are alike, and the intellect of one man is not affected and excited by what affects (and excites) the intellect of another
The writer refers to a community where words of affection have been frequently exchanged and knows personally all the secrets of their hearts and minds. When the time no longer permits to attend each community member individually, then he writes a book
If the writer knows no one and has no friends, the book will be for the author himself as an only reader.
Products
The same could be said of all products, which are a superset of books. See this commentary on LinkedIn. Apple products are, metaphorically speaking, an example of Kabbalah thinking. All products fit on one table and generate 230 billion USD in annual revenues
Note: Adapted from Tanya, the classic Moral and Mystical Teachings of Kabbalah written by Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi, born on 1775
