If I currently feel an attraction in a certain direction, my challenge is to ensure that in doing so, I do not lose the awareness that the evil inclination (a special force, a messenger) is working on me; it is a force that actually wants to direct me toward the Creator. Am I in sufficient connection with the Creator or, let us say, with the group, so that my friends can help me not to stray from the correct direction? The rest is internal clarification of a person.
The main thing is, if possible, not to allow yourself to disconnect from the connection with the Creator in each specific state. In this way, we, together with the evil inclination, are already performing work in the right direction. It pulls you in all possible directions, and against this background you remain connected with the Creator.
Question: By “connection,” is calculation implied?
Answer: There is a connection even when we are unable to make a calculation. It is enough to remain in connection. That is enough for now.
And the group should provide you with a sufficient awareness of the importance of constantly remaining connected with the Creator so that this sense of importance along with the fear of becoming disconnected truly gives you the strength to remain connected, in thought and adhesion despite all the disturbances, as you hold fast to the principle “there is none else besides Him.” These are not simple matters; they take years for a person to go through them.
