Question: Should the feeling of the greatness of the Creator always be above reason, or can it also be within reason?

Answer: The importance of the Creator is always above reason, because at present, I have no possibility to see Him, feel Him, or verify that I am completely filled with Him.

But I can acquire a feeling of His greatness through the friends and use it. In return, however, I also have to invest in the friends. Only in this way does it become a force that can be used.

Question: And after crossing the Machsom?

Answer: After the Machsom, a person truly acquires an understanding of the greatness of the Creator, because he actually receives this feeling. This gives a person a feeling of His greatness, which is called faith, and as a result, he acquires the strength to bestow.

Then, when his faith becomes complete, he already has the ability to receive in order to bestow, and the greatness of the Creator becomes a reality.

Question:  When we meet a person for the first time, we form an impression of them, and it may change.

Speaking about the spiritual and the material, how do we avoid falling into the standard set of human experiences when a person enters a new environment, meets new people, sees only the good in them, and over time begins to criticize them?

Where specifically is the spiritual and material work here? In the material world, I can push such a person away from me and never meet him again, whereas here I overcome myself and continue communicating with him. Is that where the difference lies?

Answer: You do not pay attention to anything material; you rise above it because through your connection with this person you can build a common spiritual aspiration toward the Creator. Therefore, the friend is infinitely important to you, because without him, you will not have a purposeful aspiration toward spirituality, and you will remain without a soul.

Comment: Essentially, we are speaking about a screen with the Creator that I gradually build. But I build it independently, with respect to myself.

My Response: With respect to the common connection with everyone. You can never build anything directly! It is only through connection with others, because we are one shattered soul.

If I do not connect with others, I have nowhere to feel the Creator. The Creator is between us, but He disappeared, fell into the shattered network between us. Restore the network, and you will see Him again.

What is unclear here? There was a “fishing net” between us in which the Creator was felt. The net was torn, the connections between us broke down and became egoistic, and the Creator disappeared. Restore this network, like a web, and as it is restored, a radiance will appear in it—the Creator, the property of bestowal and love.

Comment: But all the examples that you give, I understand at first, and then I do not.

My Response: That is because your egoism changes instantly, and in the new egoism, you can no longer accept this; you do not feel it.

Comment: But it is impossible to repeat this a hundred times.

My Response: Of course it is possible; even a thousand times! The point is that it is not repeated, because each time a new degree is being worked through. I never repeat myself.

Comment: Yes, I know. But it sounds as though it is the same subject.

My Response: There is nothing else.

Comment: Let us say you speak about mutual guarantee, but there are so many different aspects there. You look at lessons from previous years, where you revealed certain things, and now you reveal other things. And it seems that they are being revealed, but at the same time, they are not.

My Response: Because this must be revealed in you. And in whom else? Do not wait for favors from the Creator! There will be none! Take it yourself.

Question: From where?

Answer: From Him. But demand it!

Comment: How to demand correctly is a very big problem. Because the usual idea of demanding is to shout, or clench your fists, or swear.

My Response: That helps too. Go ahead!

We see that nature is preparing traps for us that we will inevitably have to change, whether we want to or not. Moreover, we will have to change ourselves! Or at very least we will be compelled to recognize how we need to change, even if we might ultimately fail to do so.

Question: Can we reach what you call a “spiritual chip”? Is that what we are being led toward?

Answer: The spiritual chip is about unity. Nothing else. It is just like a chip operates—zero and one. That is all.

Question: Does the chip also work through this, through connection?

Answer: Only through that. Through the connection of duality, meaning through opposites.

Question: Is the spiritual chip the same thing? The connection of opposites?

Answer: Yes, above both opposing phenomena.

Comment: So one way or another the conclusion is still the same. We are being led toward this.

My Response: We are being led in such a way that we will simply lie down and agree to be “chipped,” that is, to be connected with one another in such a way that something intelligent is formed.

Just as chips are the center, the brain, and heart of a device, so too will we be ready for this.

Question: So is our unity also the brain and center of the device?

Answer: Yes.

Question: Of the entire universe?

Answer: Of everything!

Question: If a person has already embarked on the path of bestowal, how can they accelerate their development?

Answer: Read a lot. At first, they do not understand what the friends are, what the work is, or what is required of them at all. Sometimes people grasp this thanks to their nature, but for some, their nature is not suited to uniting and working with other people. There are people who are simply not adapted to this; by their character, they are more contemplative. Therefore, in the first stage, one needs to read a lot.

Nowadays, the process of development is accelerating, but nevertheless, during the first year a person should grind up various articles and letters of Baal HaSulam and Rabash within himself, , like a meat grinder, and absorb them and repeat them, in order to take in as much material as possible.

Let the person forget, not understand, and not reflect on it; he will reflect on it later, but at first, he is not capable of this. He simply needs to read what is written, open himself up, and fill himself with knowledge. Then it will begin to work within him. Through his initial aspiration, while reading the material, he already establishes a connection with the surrounding light, and when he gains sufficient experience in this—several months, half a year, a year—then he will begin to work well.

For some, it is better instead of all this reading to work in the society, but one is impossible without the other. It is necessary to vary them, and in what proportion depends on the person’s character. Both work for the benefit of the group and study should constitute a certain proportion with each other.

So development can be accelerated, especially at the beginning, by reading a great deal, and then, on the contrary, by working more and reflecting on why I am doing this. At later stages, one needs to work more for the society, because then we encounter difficult questions and problems, the overcoming of which helps us advance.
