214.01Question: When a person with a point in the heart first encounters Kabbalah, he does not understand what it is about, but he feels some kind of force, wisdom, and depth in it. Is this feeling similar to the one that should wake up in ordinary people?

Answer: Yes, this can happen. But I do not think people will be precisely oriented toward Kabbalah; most likely it will be toward connection. They will subconsciously feel that it is specifically the search for connection among them that should produce some kind of result, something higher, which should lead them to something else—non-earthly, interplanetary—to a higher intelligence.

Comment: Then what is the point of our attempts to disseminate something on a mass scale so that someone hears the concept of Kabbalah? It seems we are not really disseminating but simply cluttering up the Internet.

My Response: No! Why? Gradually, people read. Can you explain how you came to such a state that today you understand this idea at least a little? Here, you are sitting and disturbing the peace of mind of good people with your questions. How did you get to this?

Comment: In the same way, yes.

My Response: So, what do you want? Why are you taking this opportunity away from them?

Comment: Then it turns out that dissemination is not useless, but you claim that we are filling people with empty content.

My Response: If it were useless, I would not be with you at all. I would be doing something else. Dissemination is necessary. There is nothing you can do about it.

Question: Still, we want to give a strong injection through our dissemination so that it produces some kind of resonance. Do you think there is any benefit from what we are doing? Are there any methods to improve all this before we reach strong unity?

Answer: Undoubtedly, there is a benefit. Undoubtedly, it can be improved. Only dissemination will lead us to finding the correct approach, the method for correcting humanity. There is no other way!
Humanity must be raised because it advances very slowly.

Question: So whether we want it or not, we must enter into external contact with the general public?

Answer: Yes. Baal HaSulam spoke about the need to write books, to disseminate, to open new learning centers.

Comment: But still, as you say, thought lies at the foundation of everything! It does not matter whether there exists some kind of center, but suddenly, unexpectedly, a thought appears in a person. He does not know where it comes from.

My Response: Naturally. But in order to create a serious field of thoughts, we must first involve a huge number of people who, through their small efforts, would create this field.

275Question: You say that we cannot reach even 1% of the world. But everyone wants to instill unity into our dissemination, and in the end, it turns out that we are not succeeding. Then what is the point of disseminating if you initially know that all of this is empty?

Answer: It is with your emptiness that you fill the world.

Question: But mustn’t there be some kind of solution?

Answer: The solution will appear when you become filled with the Creator. Then there will be a different kind of dissemination. The world will begin to feel that one unified force that resides in you. And the world will begin to go crazy, but in a good sense, because people will suddenly develop a new sensation, and everyone, all across different continents and in various countries, will start talking in different languages about the fact that there is one single governance, one single thought, one single force.

Here and there, all kinds of aspirations, disputes, expressions, opinions, and articles will suddenly begin to appear, and people will begin to perceive this and take it into account.

From within humanity, a new common opinion will emerge—the need to communicate in this way and feel others. People will begin to subconsciously understand that through unification, they can achieve something very special.

They will understand that, being united, they need to dig within, and they will find happiness there, a new idea, some kind of way out of the situation. “Instead of engaging in politics, undermining each other, trying to deceive, let us, on the contrary, try to connect, and there, within our unity, we will find a solution to all problems.” That is what everything will be moving toward.

Question: Is this similar to the feeling when a person with a point in the heart encounters Kabbalah for the first time?

Answer: Yes, it will manifest in people, but not in aspiration for Kabbalah; rather, it will be toward this idea, that the idea of unity must produce a new solution from itself, one that is completely irrational, that we cannot determine, attain, or derive with our minds in some equation.

Only if we strive toward one another, and within this common striving—there, where each can break free from his egoism and create some kind of common desire, a common field, something higher, above our reason—we will suddenly perceive a new mind, a new solution, completely different, not from our level.

750.01What does it mean to follow Moses, after all, he is on a spiritual level, and the people are on the material level? What condition must be fulfilled for this?

First of all, you must make a restriction (Tzimtzum) on your own Kelim. As a consequence of this, you connect with everyone else, specifically with the several million others just like you who exist on your level. Only after you have given up your egoism can connect with Moses. Before that, you were not able to do that.

The exodus from Egypt occurs when you join Moses, not at his high level, but only at the level of self-annulment. This is called the state of spiritual birth; it is when it is enough for you simply to follow him with your eyes closed.

Moses walks in front of everyone with his eyes open, leaning on his staff. He knows where to go and how to lead the people. And he is not the only one; there are also others accompanying him on the way like Nahshon, who was the first to jump into the sea, and others.

But your annulments toward Moses should be like you are a baby relative to an adult, that is enough. A small child does not know where his father is leading him. It is enough for him to grasp his father’s hand and he will be certain that he will surely lead him to a good place.

In order to reach the level of Moses, it is necessary to cross the Machsom, enter the Land of Israel, and go through many more stages. Moses is on a very high spiritual degree; he is the greatest among the prophets.

But when he was with all the people in Egypt, he himself was already no longer on the degree of “Egypt” but on the degree of the “Land of Israel.” That is why he does not enter the Land of Israel together with all the people. He is already beyond this degree, above it.

272Question: To progress from a good state to an even better one, you need to be conscious of your current state. How can you do this without descending to a lower level?

Answer: To descend to a lower level means following bodily desires. At some point, each of us feels the urge to run away and hide in some quiet, warm, peaceful corner. When I am in trouble, I think, “I want nothing, not even something good. I want to utterly limit my desires just not to feel anything.”

As soon as there is an opportunity to get something and feel good, a desire instantly arises to get more and more, to the point that a person wants to consume the whole world. Whereas in a difficult moment, all desires disappear except one: Give me some quiet corner, just so I can be at peace.

It all depends on the external conditions a person finds oneself in. We should not think about our desires, because at the right moment, you will feel the right desire. We should only think about how to make the external conditions awaken us more.

Everything that a person feels in every state, at any stage, from the lowest to the highest, is a sensation of the Creator. There is nothing else to feel except Him. The sensation of the Creator in our current state is called our world. Because our senses, our Kelim, are opposite to Him, we feel this world is so bad. But to the extent we succeed in reaching similarity of properties with the Creator, our sensations will become better.

We should not talk about the size of our Kelim. We should be concerned about their nature.
