Ibur [conception] and birth - Selected Excerpts from the Sources, #11
1. Rav’s Introduction:
Okay, well, we need to continue. Continue how? We are always under the Creator's control, this is what it says. Even though we don't understand it, we don't feel it, we're not aware of it in our mind and in our heart meaning, in our feeling, in our in our understanding, we come to this world and we start to grow up and we are all of us are immersed in our ego meaning, in a special force that is depicting to us a different picture. There is no control over us rather, we are in control over our reality. The more we grow up, well babies and older people, older people feel what force there is in the world. It's me and other people like me so then we just have struggles of power between us, who will be in control?
When we reach a state where we have no choice in order to discover the Creator, we ourselves must cancel our control so that we don't want to be in control, we don't want to manage the world and reality, but rather, we want to depress that inclination in us, our ego. Then we begin to discover that specifically this ego is also not ours, it is an upper force. I wasn't thinking so before. Earlier, I was thinking it was me, that I want this and I want to control and I want to determine me, me, me, but no. When I want to come out from the control of that “me” a little bit, I start to feel that ‘me,’ it's not me, it is the Creator and it's a little bit different than what I was thinking before. Then I have already some different attitude to my ego and to the Creator. I already have to start to position myself in between the two of them as much as I cancel my ego, which is an upper, one upper force and as much as I want it, instead the second force, the Creator will control and that way in between the two of them I establish myself. This status in between the two of them and as much as I want to cancel my ego through the group, the study all of the things that I have in my disposal, by that I begin to see myself more and more in partnership with my 10 and with the Creator. These two forces are intended for me to replace my control, my government.
The control of the egoistic force, this is just one force and it's a single force and I want to replace it by a second force and we who are in the last generation, accordingly we are about to discover these things that they are also in the world. In the world, to the government, governance is being replaced, the government will be replaced from the egoistic governance, to a yet unknown governance, we don't know what it is yet but it's going to be a different governance. Bit by bit we will start to discover it, in the upcoming time that there is truly a process whereby everything around us is changing, it’s all due to our internal changes in which we are already going through or are about to enter them and this is how we will see it. Specifically, the last generation, what is special about it? That the process that we are going through and we're going through it with a large mass, a large number of people, the group of Bnei Baruch, which is a lot greater than what we are familiar with, the process of the world is going through, even though it's a few levels lower than that, but it is going through it.
It's like in our world we are the grown-ups the adults are going through different states at work and in society, in all of the life of the grown-ups, but it also influences our little children. Nevertheless, they are in a different world at home a little bit in the media or things that affect them and so this is what we will see in the last generation everyone, it's everyone. However, everyone according to his degree is already undergoing essential changes and therefore, we should also look at what is happening in the world that you can see what is happening in the world even the media is changing, in that they are beginning to determine before everyone's eyes their desire, which is against the principle of the media. It goes against the entire approach that they should have, that they do not belong to anyone, that they are above everyone, they just give us information, information about everything and only that. That we should receive this information and then make up our mind this way or that way and determine our life but no. Even before that they already decided for all of these things for us so what is happening here in the recent time?
We need to understand that it is the recognition of evil, that's what we have now in our society and these are great things that do not occur because of some decision that they make in these systems in between them. These are the systems that shape our approach to life and these systems they've now shown themselves as systems that are not media or communication means by which they communicate between them and communicate with us and help us connect together. Rather it is simply I don't want to get into it more but what did I want to say? I wanted to say that the world is undergoing great changes and we need to see in that the revelation of evil in the human society, how much that evil is now revealed in a very quick way, a great pace and accordingly we need to hurry up in the recognition of evil in us and to advance towards spiritual birth. We will talk more about it, but in the meantime, let's start.
Excerpt #11 Baal HaSulam (09:36 - 11:09)
2. R. But again, this is of course only according to man's attainment. It seems to him that he's independent and so he can determine his own state however of course he's under the complete control of the Creator and along with that he discovers that in his state he can determine his own discernment, his own control. We will start to get to know these things in a broader sense.
3. S. (11:40) It's written that he comes out to the air of the world. It seems like coming out is kind of darkness, you don't see the light.
R. I don't understand what state he's asking about.
S. He's asking about the text I suppose that it's written that one comes out to the air of the world but maybe they translated it into the light of the world?
R. Yes, he's going out to the air of the world, from here onwards he can determine what is happening and then according to his identification with his progenitors, the father and the mother he takes from them each time more and more forces and he processes them according to his desire according to his preparation and this is how he advances. He himself becomes just like in our life he also becomes a grown up until he himself also gives birth and this is how it happens generation after generation.
4. S. (13:03) Rabbi Akiva had twenty-four thousand students more than us in quantity. Why didn't they succeed and how can we make sure the same doesn't happen to us?
R. They did not succeed and he knew they would not succeed and along with that he very much suffered because they were not successful because it was known that there would be two temples. Meaning, that there would be, there would be two states. The first state, the first temple is the attainment of Mochin of Haya and the second temple after the first temple was broken, the attainment was broken, and they reached a lesser attainment which is the degree of Bina, Mochin of Neshama and this was during the times of Rabbi Akiva, he knew that, that too would not stand, they knew about it as it is written that even many years before the ruin of the second temple, they already knew that soon it would be ruined. The Kabbalists, and there were many Kabbalists, many sages, they wrote about it, they talked about it so it was known so on the one hand, even though it was known that we will not be able to maintain our connection even though on the level of Bina, to bestow in order to bestow. Nevertheless, they were holding on to it as much as possible because they cannot fall. It cannot willingly go down from spirituality to corporeality from the desire to bestow.
So, they held onto it and Rabbi Akiva also expected from the 24,000 students that you have had that they will hold each other and will not let it all fall apart. However, they were not able to continue because the process that the whole of reality has to enter to the will to receive in order to receive, the final ultimate one and reach the true shattering, all of us had to go through it and therefore they were broken and Rabbi Akiva was killed. All of his students also died in a plague and around them the entire nation the people were also deported in all kinds of directions, two thousand years ago so this is what happened. It's now during our time we are going back to the state of resurrecting ourselves as Baal HaSulam writes because we are in the last generation and already the general providence is starting to work on us, on everyone and we can see that the world is starting to take on a very uniform and serious movement.
All of us around the globe are becoming as one generation that everyone depends on each other. We're all going through the same states and this is what we have before us, gradually we can, we should determine where we are and where we should reach to. This is why we're studying the wisdom of Kabbalah and becoming organized in tens in order to start this awakening. In order to recover from the shattering, from the disconnection from spirituality and bit by bit reveal ourselves that we wish to join we wish to get up we wish to regain our consciousness. We are truly in relation to the true reality so right now we're still unconscious but we are already a little bit aware that we are unconscious and we need to reach consciousness.
5. S. (18:25) He writes that one needs to be connected to the qualities of mother and father?
R. We are managed by two forces the force of Hochma and Bina as we learn from the four phases of direct light that when the Creator expands the force Hochma, the force of bestowal itself, the Keter, what does the Keter bestow, it imparts the light of Hochma, what does it impart Hochma on, on the will to receive that it created existence from absence and from that we get a response in the will to receive which is called Bina and so forth. This is why the force of Hochma and the force of Bina are the two forces that exist practically in the created being that work on the created being. The force of Hochma is called Abba, father and the force of Bina is called Ima, mother and this is how they work on us.
S. How can we discover this in the connection between us in the 10?
R. We in the 10 reach connection as much as we're capable of with prayer with a request with an inclination with an effort, we reach connection and in the connection we discover all of these forces that are being revealed gradually.
S. Do we have any power to act through the connection between us? Some power of thought?
R. When we want to reach connection, we begin to discover that all of our future states they all exist already because they all cascaded from above downwards as he's telling us here in this excerpt that we need to attain our progenitors Abba and Ima, father and mother the force of Hochma and the force of Bina and this is what we attain in the increasing connection in the group.
S. And when he writes that one comes under his own control?
R. But he himself wants to rule? While he doesn't want the Creator to direct him and obligate him to connect but rather that he by himself wants to obtain the necessity to connect and to reach even love with people and from people to the Creator, this is what he wants to obtain by himself, the created being because by this he wants to express his attitude to the Creator just like the Creator is relating to him.
6. S. (21:50) What does he mean when he writes that the beginning of attainment is from below upwards?
R. This is how we attain it. We start from an attainment from below and gradually we attain the root above.
Excerpt #12 Reader (22:16 - 23:12)
7. R. Meaning, until he retains all of the influences all of the light of Bina later on the light of Hochma and then he realizes that he's not corrected according to the qualities of Hochma and Bina and then he attains Ima and through her Abba. This is called spiritual attainment. But it is all from the time that one is born meaning, from the point that one is born meaning from the lowest point that one is born spiritually and on that one point just like us who are now about to feel our birth. Before the birth when we were in conception though we do not understand where we are and how come even though it says that the embryo in the mother's waters sees from one end of the world from to other end but of course this is not with attainment, this seeing. He's only under these upper influence over him.
8. S. (24:27) Regarding what you said when you opened the lesson, saying that we are undergoing great processes of revelation of evil in the last generation so your students are also under the influence of the media. The question is how can we defend ourselves, protect ourselves and not be captured with what we see in the media and the recognition of evil outside?
R. I don't know I'm just hearing here and there about what is happening though of course I hear about it through the media about all kinds of things but I don't connect to it, I don't get into it. I am just allowing myself some possibility to compare what I think about the world and what I hear that people are saying about it and not more than that but it's not that I am going according to what the media are saying and whatever they decide and whatever they are saying or talking about. You will feel how much you cannot relate to anything seriously because it's all that people are sitting and writing whatever they think that we should think but it's not that we actually have to accept it to receive it from them this way. We can see how they are, what is their attitude to the freedom of expression and how it is all in a state where it's not objective, it's not media, how can it be that they are cancelling one opinion, one view relative to the other view? Who can take that responsibility onto himself? Take such permission, such authority? But it's good, it's good because specifically that is the recognition of evil that brings them to be cancelled. This is the beginning of the end and I'm very happy that it actually happened and that the world from this moment on already begins to relate differently to all of these social networks, seemingly social networks. Now they are relating to it like dictatorships. This is how it is. I remember that this is how it was in Russia. You could only read the newspaper that was published by the Communist Party. It was impossible to listen to or receive any other view besides that. Everything was shut. Everything else and this is how they wanted to educate the people. Well, what came out of that? Increases until it explodes because the world includes two forces and a person has to be in the middle and determine all of the things from below upwards. Just like the embryo. How does it grow? By knowing how to connect inside of it to opposite forces Hochma and Bina. These are opposite forces one is bestowal the other is reception and one who knows how to connect them correctly, he can grow out of that and so the fact that now it has become revealed how much our society is entirely under the control, not the influence but the control of a single force, accordingly we will see that this is the end of that period of time and now a new generation is truly beginning, the last generation.
9. S. (01:51:25) Is it correct to say that like people are on the stage before the revelation which is the stage where the fetus inverts, the world is undergoing a transition to a new future a new state?
R. Yes, yes, you said it correctly the more we entered into this so the world is also entering more and more behind us yes without a doubt however for them it's on a different level with different words and actions that are more or less, but of course it is truly related one much as the other.
10. S. (01:51:25) Recently I've been hearing that you speak more and more about the process of the recognition of evil that the whole world is undergoing now this recognition of evil, how is it expressed and to what degree will this process of the recognition of evil come?
R. The recognition of evil, it's not that we are reaching recognition of evil in the world, the essential recognition of evil is that a person feels that he cannot dedicate his internality to the force of bestowal or to balance the force of the bestowal with the force of reception. That is what's the recognition of evil that one constantly discovers more and more how much he is under the control of his ego and this is to degrees that are more subtle, well more subtle. Delicate. Earlier he wasn't so aware of it and now he becomes more aware more and more each and every day some days go this way, other days go the other day the other direction but all in all it is all going and just like we learned about the example of the bicycle and the example by Baal HaSulam that even though it is rolling forward and then backward but along with that the movement is entirely forward all in all.
S. Is the process personal, individual or is it recognition that comes to the whole of humanity as a collective?
R. Yes, the process is in the whole of humanity. This is what is interesting, this is what were witnessing and the more that we advance we will see that the world is advancing and in the world we were actually see great shaking and I hope that very much that these shocks would be like today all-in-all not through truly tragical great states but rather well today we can see that this pandemic, as much as on the one hand the country Israel, the land of Israel invested in the vaccination against Corona more than everyone and it is vaccinating the entire population in a way that is unparalleled, but along with that we have come out we have a greater attack of the virus more than everyone and this is what we talked about even a year ago at the beginning of this pandemic that all in all, those who will suffer more than everyone, it's Israel. Why? It's their fault, that's clear? You will see more of it in the future. There's nothing you can do about it.
11. S. (33:09) To work with this sense, the sensation of guilt that we have when we look at the world and that knowing that we are the source of?
R. We need to try first of all to depict to ourselves that we are in a single body with the whole world, that we are in a single soul with everyone and this is why I am responsible with everyone for the whole world and so it's my fault not that just that I'm doing bad to someone but rather I'm truly harming our own people and think about it as much as possible but it's already a great correction. This is how we need to think, so let us think this way and later on we want to try for that purpose to correct ourselves, that we are correcting ourselves not in order for it to benefit ourselves but first and foremost for the world. The more you think about people who are farther away from you are investing greater forces in the correction of the entire world because specifically this distance amplifies the forces. The forces of salvation, the forces of correction.
12. S. (34:38) We asked the students of the Kabbalists, we learn that anyone who finds flaws in others is seeing his own flaws that all of the flaws are within. So how will the new generation perceive reality through the recognition of evil?
R. We will feel more and more that we belong to each other through our efforts, we will feel ourselves that we belong to a single body and only through that feeling a general collective body can we determine the truth. As a Baal HaSulam says that if one organ is cut off from the body that it no longer knows, it doesn't understand what is happening to the body but if a doctor would come and reattach this organ to the body that it will once again no the body, what is happening with the general body so it is with us. The more we try to be together in the ten, through the ten we get forces, understanding, feelings that pertain to the entire collective body and this is how we will reach it. I hope very much that this year we are truly entering a more collective general activity as one bundle, one unit and then we will start to feel processes that are relevant not to us, not to each of us in a way that he is cut off from everyone which is considered that one is in this world. But rather if we will connect between us then we will start to feel what is happening between us and that, by that we will already feel the upper world, the next world to the system of the soul. This is what we have ahead of us and the whole wisdom of Kabbalah is discussing those processes that we have to go through from the moment that we discover ourselves as cut off from the others and until we connect, we connect more and more into a single body.
S. Discovering humanity is a single community, a single body will that be a light for the world?
R. To the extent that we feel ourselves as connected between us and also with the world around us to that extent we become a pipeline through which the upper light influences through us to the entire world, the whole of humanity and then by that we are realizing our destiny. This is actually our role, to be the part that connects between the Creator and all of the created beings. This is why we are called Israel, Yashar Kel, straight to the Creator that we are like the Rosh. the head. Israel is called I have a head that we are like the head of the Partzuf are connected with the upper force above, above the Rosh and with humanity which is the body and we will be performed the Zivug removed and coupling by striking so that through us the rest of humanity will come in and fill up the whole of humanity and that way we will we will reach the whole correction
13. S. (39.18) So in the beginning of the lesson the world is undergoing great changes and we need to see it as the recognition of evil of human society so what are the stages of the recognition of evil in humanity?
R. Well we can see it, don't you see how humanity is beginning to recognize the evil? That's mostly in the media because this is the system that is connecting us together. This is the system that wants to determine everything that it thinks, that it understands, that it feels and it decides, that it should determine upon us and that we should simply accept whatever is in that system. Tell me how can it be that this same system is now showing us, all of us that it is actually controlling us, so much so that it wants to determine with a brutal hand that this is how it is and not any other way? How can that be? This is already a higher system than the system itself that is coming and opening up like the cards, as much as we are under the control of the egoistic system that has nothing besides control. Not even money because this control can make them lose many participants, many users and I'm sure this will happen in the coming days. Nevertheless, we can see how much the upper force is above this mechanism and it is showing the world how much the world is in an egoistic network out of which nothing good will come to the world. That is the recognition of evil. In that, God forbid, I'm not blaming any network or Google or Twitter or anyone I don't even know them that well. I'm not blaming them. It is the Creator who is playing with us such that we will know in what social network we exist what we are nourished from and who is controlling us. The upper force is teaching us in this way and that is already a global stage of recognition of evil.
14. S. What challenges are social networks and the media are facing? Is there something that can be fixed?
R. I'm not relating anything good or bad to them. This is the result of human nature. I can't say that these are better or these are worse, that I hate these and I love those, they are all egoists. They are all built in such a way that simply out of the fact that they receive great control over the minds and hearts of people, out of that this is how they behave. If I were instead of them or you or someone else, we would also behave this way, they are the result of human control over human society. This is how I see it, it's the revelation of the evil of all of us not of a particular network or who's there, Bill Gates or Mark Zuckerberg, I'm not relating these things to them specifically. They represent human nature and this is why we should see this as a process that humanity is going through and what is actually, that's how it developed, grew these networks out of it. Where did these networks come from? Because people were using it, people were using it and so they became whatever they became, these networks. This is why, today they have become superpowers but look at how the time has now come for them to reach their final maturity and from here on they will start to rot. They are now rotting.
S. Censorship of these networks comes from the upper force for what use?
R. That's not simple, it's what's the benefit? The benefit is that we advanced towards the goal. Either in a more convenient, comfortable manner or less but it's all, there's enough purpose to it to promote us to connect together, to connect with the upper force that's clear so it needs to be revealed along the way whether it seems good or bad it will be revealed. We need to think only about connection in the direction of connection that will be closer to the goal and through a better path.
S. (45.38) But from the side of humanity what is there in the process to the recognition of evil what? That the media are bad for us? What? What next?
R. I don't think that they're bad, they show us the way what's with you? I'm not against anything. There's nothing bad in the world, it all depends on what we learn from it and how we use it correctly. I'm not passing criticism on any particular thing. The opposite, everything that happened so that we come to recognize what's good and bad and to decide that we want to advance on a better path and a better path that's through connection between us without all the media. People write in their hearts of each one you will have this receiver, a means to contact the hearts of another. That's what I want everyone to have so everyone connects likes that.
S. (46.51) So, where is the recognition of evil?
R. The recognition of evil is well these external media outlets they cannot perform this role. They cannot be our communications, replace our communication and humanity is understanding that it has no chance of coming to connection in human society using today's media and communications regardless of what network it is. Whether it's Trump's network or Biden's network it doesn't matter, both of them, we need an internal work from heart to heart. So I'm not going to determine here I want something else the opposite rise above all of these things which are in the world. Above all these things which we see on this level. Learn and feel and learn from it how these things are exactly matching, exactly in keeping with the flow of correction towards the whole of humanity and it’s really nice seeing it from one day to the next it's a very rapid pace.
S. (48.15) Another question on a different topic related to the media, we have friends, men and women who are very much drawn into it as I see it into conspiracies in the network they say read about vaccinations or about the government, right left, they're drawn into it ,how can we avoid being drawn in there? I'm talking about friends who are in our systems.
R. I feel sorry about that. they don't keep the right approach being connected to the Creator as it's him playing with us in such a way wanting to teach us. From his height so that we can reach the same place, the same observation point and they integrate in all this garbage of the media and our world and all this locker room talk, kitchen talk, street talk or something with such people it's difficult for me to find a common tongue.
S. Can I continue this?
R. Yes.
S. (49.34) I wanted to ask, in the recent time in general we are truly advancing in our connection in the tens and in general, we are advancing spiritually in a significant way, the entire world vessels so why do we see the results that seemingly, are they opposite in humanity?
R. What opposite outcome?
S. (50.02) More recognition of evil everything that you've been talking about in the beginning of the lesson in the media received that everything is falling apart in the world is becoming more and more crazy.
R. Because it's truly so, according to, you tell me the doctor that comes to a sick person the sick person says I have this little sore here and the doctor checks and he says oh, no no no will take you will do x-rays we need to have tests, blood tests and other types of tests, it's not simple. Meaning the more of an expert you are you see all of these fine details and you want to get to the roots of the problem and the root of the problem is there in the beginning of creation and at the end of creation. Therefore, we have a bit more expertise in that than people on the street.
S. (50.55) Yes, but why the connection that we are creating in the tens, the internality is not affecting externality all over the world?
R. Not yet, you don't have the power of connection in the tens still such that the Creator dwells there and as a light which matches the vessel so that the light and the vessel are equal. Not yet. We haven't come to that still, to having such tens which bestow like that from the whole world, other than just being in that themselves also to bestow upon others. That something else, meaning that they come out of the degree of Ibur conception, nursing, adulthood. That they are capable of bestowing not just holding themselves exactly but bestowing to the world and in other tens so that several tens connect together such that there is a system between them and that system is then capable of bestowing upon the external system which is broken up. There is a system, everyone is in the system, we're all in that network. The shattering is only with respect to us, so how do we put it in order? So gradually through our networks which we establish, we will be able to connect to them and to have our power flow through them. It's as we do with children in corporeality.
S. That is clear but seemingly so our tens what it's not yet considered tens if we don't see our influence.
R. No, no.
S. So what is it?
R. A ten is a complete group where they each can complete the other where they can all be as one man in one heart to an extent and then they are ready when we are connected together, we are ready to bestow contentment upon the Creator so in order to bestow contentment upon the Creator we had emerged from the connection between them to a more external connection as well. Why? Because through this external bestowal they bestow upon the Creator. They bring him a new vessel, new corrected vessels.
S. (51:25) This is clear, so why should a birth of humanity now happen through the media?
R. The media is revealing to us the kinds of connections we have between us in this network between people, what connections we have there and how this connection is far from the proper kinds. We owe them great thanks for doing it that way, it's not them. It's the Creator who played with them in such a way and manipulated them so that they can show us how we connect to each other and what we need to fix. Because everything depends on the connection, yes? On the connection so you can see then, what connection you have with human society. Who governs you.
S. Well a question that a friend sent, let's say here in Israel we see that on the one hand the country is living with the corona but it turns out that we are in the worst state, you mentioned it before. Why is it so?
R. Because it's our fault, it's our fault where did the coronavirus come from? From the lack of connection between us like every other problem. Who is guilty of that lack of connection? The Jews, Israel and they deserve it. That's why it's revealed in them.
S. So what is it in the opposite way?
R. It can be the opposite, inverse, it can be otherwise, it's like in the Middle Ages where all sorts of different diseases came to the nations of the world and they didn't reach the Jews so also they turned to the Jews and said how come you're not suffering? How come you're not sick? Then there was this excuse, the explanation that the Jews lived secluded from others they lived in a ghetto that protected them and they would wash at least once a week before the Shabbat, while the nations of the world didn't have these customs yes and they also they kept kosher and all those things which obligated people to have everything marinated in salt and so on. There are all sorts of corporeal explanations but that's what they thought, it was different back then. The Jews were more healthy than the nations during the time of that plague but now it's different, now it's the last generation and so I don't think it would be better for us, only worse. The more we invest and certainly will invest more than others and then we will see that to our sorrow, seemingly, so sadly seemingly, it doesn't help until it will teach us maybe not all at once maybe several times we will learn that the connection between us brings the right force that takes care of all these problems including the pandemic.
S. This is clear however it seems as though our ability to effect changes in the direction in which humanity is progressing as apparently is not strong enough if they're still working like, let's have vaccinations, let's have it this way, that way.
R. But what can they do, what can the government do? What do they understand? This is what they have in their hands.
S. What can we do with over 8 billion people?
R. 8 billion people, only the power of thought but that covers everything. If we had the proper power of thought through which we were connected with the upper force we could have cancelled out all of these decrees including the pandemic.
S. So I'm going back to my earlier question, how did the tens begin to operate out of their force of thought, out of their internality and this is what they project?
R. To connection, for the time being it's connection, you have nothing else you can include in your connection that I am doing this in order to bring the whole world to connection and to connection with the upper force, you can say that. But in any case we're acting in that direction. It's only the connection between us that can save us and you can see and all of the systems you have everything that happened to our people in the past when we lose and why it's only when we drift apart from each other. You have the elections that are coming up, it's another part of the recognition of evil of who we are. We need to come to recognize our inner structure and of course we get the pandemic and other blows so that finally we come to recognize the evil and attempt to turn it to good.
S. Last question, what is between the recognition of evil and the entrance to impregnation that we are supposed to enter?
R. Ibur, conception is the first connection between us and the ten. Where you are called a group. It's one spiritual cell and it comes into existence as though it has its own identity and it begins to connect to the other force seeing that everyone wants to bestow upon each other and annul themselves towards each other, in that way they are compatible with the Creator to the first degree.
S. Why does the first connection require recognition of evil?
R. How will you connect if not above the evil that you have? The bad, the evil is created. Existence from absence, something from nothing so that we can connect above it and so to build our spirituality. Where does the spiritual person come from, the spiritual world? It's by us connecting together above the evil. The evil is the substance you can connect something above it and build a good system to resemble the Creator. You have to have something in your hand in order to use it, to build, to build the BoReh, come and see.
14. S. (01.01:53) You said that the roots of the problem is that in the beginning of creation. Can you please clarify this concept? How can we explain to the world without sounding religious?
R. We don't listen to anyone religious or secular. We need to listen to what the Kabbalists say to us and they are not affiliated with the religious or the secular or any religion or world view. They attain everything. They receive everything as attainment. Where did the wisdom of Kabbalah come from? Through attainment not through various faiths and opinions and philosophies psychology no, it has nothing to do with the person, it's when the person rises above himself and then discovers what's outside of him. What's outside of him in creation and that's what he discovers outside of him to the extent that he can make a restriction over himself, to rise above himself, to resist himself then he discovers it and it's called the upper world. That is what we learn and these qualities we want to receive, to adopt and that's what we need to explain to everyone. Where we get this wisdom from if they want to accept it good if not then know we're not forcing anything.
S. What does it mean that the roots of the problem is within the beginning of creation?
R. The Creator created the evil inclination in order to give the created being the ability to exist outside of the Creator. So that the created being will stand independent of the Creator facing the Creator, that's why he created him in such a way in an opposite way with an opposite nature with the will to receive and the created being in order to come to know the Creator must receive the form of the will to bestow on this will to receive. It doesn't get the desire to bestow but the intention to bestow from the Creator to the extent that he asks and demands he receives that power of intention and then he can build himself in bestowing in order to bestow and later in receiving in order to bestow but what you receive from the Creator is the intention. What he does it for while the substance of creation is the will to receive and that the created being remains as he is opposite to the Creator. So it's according to the person's will, he is the opposite of the Creator, the polar opposite and according to the intention he acquires on this will restricting the will and acquiring the intention to bestow by that he becomes similar to The Creator externally and how he presents himself above his ego, that's how we build ourselves.
15. S. (01.05:50) You explained it but can we make it more precise? Do you recommend us to cleanse ourselves from thoughts that separate us from connection so that we will be able to amplify the congestion between us, the density? Does the Creator through the coronavirus also push humanity into that same thing?
R. Of course in each and every action that we feel on ourselves through nature through the environment those who are close to us or far it doesn't matter through all these operations that we feel acting upon us we need to say that there's none else besides Him it's the Creator either in a direct way or roundabout manner, pleasantly or in an unpleasant way he is bringing us towards correction.
16. S. (01:07:04) When a baby is born if the head comes out then the baby is usually safely born. If Bnei Baruch or part of Bnei Baruch achieve spiritual attainment through our connection will humanity be automatically corrected or we still have to do something actively and do they have something that they have to do?
R. We must birth the whole of humanity as it is one body and we have to raise humanity to the level of the Creator. So that they are in full complete connection with each other. It's called one receives one.
17. S. (01:08:12). Will any time in the world be an example of a true unity model to his people in the countries or it will happen first through the tens in Israel's government?
R. Neither. There are no people, no nations, no governments, no countries, nothing. They are only human beings who need to connect each one according to his point as placed in the system of Adam HaRishon. It may be that you will feel in the system of Adam HaRishon close to some men from Africa and a man from South America and someone from Siberia and so on. It has nothing to do with nationality, anything really, anything corporeal, earthly. It has to do with the root of the soul alone.
18. S. (01:09:40) The law of development requires recognition of evil in the whole of humanity? As of today, we are lagging behind in our connection we're only in the tens’ so how will the recognition of the Creator happen to the whole world?
R. I have no answer here we're constantly talking about it. What again I will say the tens, the lessons, the gathering of friends, what? We need to accelerate development, accelerate. It's what we learn. Don't bring me questions which don't require an answer. It's clear what needs to be done.
19. S. (01:10:38) The media used to manipulate the views of humanity even earlier. Today it has become revealed that humanity is still blind to that. So, that's how we should relate to the destruction, social destruction happening in the world like Rabbi Akiva who laughed at it. He was happy when he witnessed the shattering, the ruin of the temple. Should we be happy? Or should we relate to it with mercy with sorrow?
R. I thought I said it clearly. It's neither. We need to simply observe from above from a distance, observe these transformations which the Creator, yes the Creator there's none else besides Him that he performs in the whole of humanity and we need to explain as much as we can to ourselves and the rest of humanity what's happening with us with all of us and where we are headed. That's all. If I'm happy that someone has it bad, someone has it good, I look at all these things in a rather objective manner, not good or bad. It's only that of course I judge these things but only with relation to how these things are promoting us towards the purpose of Creation in a good fast way. Faster and more pleasantly yes all of us together and that depends on the recognition of evil. The more humanity recognizes the evil in itself and how we can uproot that evil, then the faster it is that we will advance towards the goal.
S. So I observe it like a movie that is being projected regardless of whether I participate or not?
R. At least through the 10 as much as you need, as you learn. You cannot be completely indifferent to that. Of course. It's not that way, just don't get involved like the rest of the people. It's only to the extent that you can assist the world in understanding the process and assisting that consciously. What we need is just to connect to these actions that the Creator takes on us. There's no problem for the Creator to make of us what he wants, it's just that we need to be his partners, each and every one. Each and everyone needs to help the others and to help the others and humanity, that's our role.
20. S. (01:14:16) The influence of the work in the 10 the results of that they start in our country's and expand all over the world?
R. I can't say where it starts and ends, it may have happened in the United States and now it will happen in Europe or South America, I have no way of determining because it depends on the whole of the system of Adam HaRishon and on which part now needs to be corrected. We cannot speak about the process and how it exactly happens, either this or that, maybe it will pause now and there will be a few months without any apparent change because there needs to have more inner transformation needs to happen which will occur and then something will erupt outwards.
21. S. (01:15:45) You said we're not using enough of the force of the thought if we use the force of the thought together then we will eliminate the pandemic and everything, it is even written that everything will be clarified by the thought can you guide the whole world Kli. How can we use our thought?
R. It is very simple, imagine to yourself that we are all together in a single system and we all depend on each other, all of us, that is all. No more than that. It is only in that I thought about connection and tightening the connection between us that we cancel all of the decrees.
S. Just hold on to this thought that all of humanity is on the degree, where we are all as one?
R. Yes, in our times we also need to think in that way, although we begin in practice with the 10 then towards our 10’s and later towards all of humanity. Yes, through thought, you are correct.
22. S. (01:17:10) How do we depict a corrected media?
R. A corrected media is a system of education alone, nothing more is necessary but education. That is the corrected form of media, educating everyone and how to be connected together properly.
S. How do they make money?
R. They profit by all of us connecting together taking upon ourselves the form of Adam HaRishon the profit but what we gain more and more is the upper light bestows upon us more and more filling us more including everything within it.
S. BB is an example of such a media?
R. No, Bnei Baruch is not an example of anything. To anyone we exist on our own and that is it.
S. Do you feel that the pace of advancement of the tens matches the pace of advancement of humanity?
R. It's preferable that the 10s advance more but none the less we are advancing. Each 10 needs to invest more energy because we have a stage now ahead of us where we need to start connecting the 10s together more and more as we approach the big Congress.
S. We heard the congress is entirely in the 10.
R. Yes, that's fine but we're holding a congress together all of us so we have to maintain the example that each one has to be an example from his 10 towards the other 10. We're not building ties between the 10s, we're simply strengthening the 10s where each one of them is ready, ripe and then towards the readiness. We will take care of the general system.
S. So in efforts toward the Congress we're just growing stronger in our tens?
R. We cannot say that we already have tens that are ready if it was otherwise, I would have been glad.
23. S. (01:20:08) As a result of the pandemic and everything that is happening in Israel, we see many people who are suffering, we also see our relatives and friends who are suffering and when we try to come and explain to them it creates antagonism and friction. How can we or should we explain it?
R. Don't go and explain, after all that means performing an incorrect action and it may be that you need to learn how to perform a proper action, meaning a proper act of explaining. Explain the explanation, learn to do it gently and you will see if it is possible or not. There is nothing to be done and certainly the audience doesn't wish to hear about this yet, they think they can emerge from it easily not like a year ago where we thought after two weeks we could return to a normal life. Now no one thinks that they're saying it will be a year or two years or maybe even more, that there will be waves through this whole process, this development. But apparently, we are not capable ourselves of delivering to them the method of correction for the pandemic yet and they also are incapable of listening. Rising above all of the limitations and problems, to agree with us. It is a problem.
24. S. (01:22:18) You said that the ten is a group that is united. What does it mean to be united in order for us to be able to be an example for everyone else?
R. That is what we cannot yet determine, this is what I was talking about earlier, about how we still don't have such 10s that we can say that they feel themselves as being whole and in that connection which brings them to a state where in that connection they feel all the friends as one and the whole 10 as one and that they are ready to emerge from the 10 and start spreading through the rest of the 10’s the same way one person connects to another inside the 10. That is the way it is. Tens find they can relate to the other ten as one person relates to another person within the ten.
25. S. (01:24:04) You said we need to increase the work in the 10, what do I need to do more with the 10?
R. I can tell you what else you need to do you need to check and to see what you must do in order to come to be with the whole 10 is one man in one heart as you are with your own self you need to reach that same connection with the friends.
S. I will try to do whatever you say.
R. I don't know, it is your business, I'm not a judge or a lawyer, don't come to me as there are laws, supposedly you haven't done everything yet in order to achieve that but you want to justify yourself. So maybe it's better to check again. Still, something isn't connecting, so check. You can get angry with me or the Creator but it won't help. You have the laws of nature and we must come to equivalence with them. You are thrown into the sea and you don't know how to swim. So, there are rules here.
Excerpt 13 Reader (01:25:44 - 01:27:09) reads twice
26. R. To the extent you now perform independent actions to resemble the Creator somewhat he is then in the state of Ruach and so he advances and it is a great thing already as this is life, the feeling of motion that he himself generates, that is already a little human, person, Adam. This is how we advance. Like in our life.
27. S. (01:28:59) To be in that state of serving as a pipeline of light to the world, by that the world annuls before us or do we have annul before the world?
R. We annul before the world in order to bestow upon the world and the world annuls before us in order to connect to us and to join our corrected system. To the extent that we are corrected. We can bestow upon the world and to that extent the world will be able to annul itself and connect to us in order to be as one corrected system with us. It is this reciprocity that can happen between us and the nations of the world.
28. S. (01:29:14) He writes here that he already has a Peh, a mouth. What does that mean?
R. That he can enter into a connection of receiving to bestow, that is considered that he has Peh, that it comes to his own authority and he already knows what he is doing, and he already has his own permission to make his own choices which is regarded as being on his own. Then, it is regarded that he received the degree of Ruach, something that moves that has motion, that illuminates when he has his permission of his own. to his own authority in Holiness, in Kedusha, bestowal.
S. What is this motion?
R. That we can bestow mutually between us and from the Creator towards us we enter into an interaction.
S. Yes, that is called the light of Ruach?
R. Yes, that is mutual bestowal and in that bestowal, you begin to discover the internality of a new connection that you are for him and him for you there is a mutual connection between you where you are connecting and transferring to one another. There is a certain building of a system of connection between you and the friends and everyone together, all of you together to the Creator and him to you. This is truly a system, the same system that you build is called Adam HaRishon.
S. You said towards the convention that we have a unique path ahead of us. Can we reach this state?
R. No, not yet. But it is worthwhile to learn it so we can see where we are and where we are not yet.
Excerpt 14 Reader (01:31:57 - 01:35:07) reads twice
29. R. I don't know how I understood it because we also have to feel how this occurs with us? We will talk about it as much as possible.
30. S. (01:35:25) What does it mean that a person is rewarded with circumcising himself?
R. This is so that he annuls his egoistic desire to in order to receive in such a matter that he is not capable to overcome it. That he agrees with it and then the Creator purifies it from him that part of the will to receive that a person is not capable of overcoming. That is called to circumcise ones self, we have a will to receive in us that comes to us from that point that the Creator created and that point belongs to the decision of the Creator to create the will to receive and that point, that part, that discernment which belongs to the decision of the Creator, we cannot correct it in order to bestow. It is truly belonging to that decision to create the will to receive. I have created the evil inclination, hence the will to receive we cancel, we nullify it and do not use it. But the moment we do this circumcision as we call it, then with the rest of the will to receive we can work and invert it in order to bestow.
S. When we advance, we discover that we have regressed so how do we measure regression in the group as a sign that we are advancing?
R. This motion backwards we don't do on our own but rather the revelation of the will to receive is felt in us as if we were seemingly moving backwards. Upon it we overcome connecting between us even more than before and therefore we perform an action of moving forward. It is like the wheel on the bicycle where we are moving forward but half of it appears as going backwards.
31. S. (01:38:33) In your opinion is the government of Israel supposed to control the media in large countries?
R. I'm not going to get into all these questions and I don't think that's a question that comes from wisdom. The Israeli government is missing to control some kind of media. That is all we're missing is that our ministers will start a quarrel between them of who is going to control which of the media. That would be another big celebration. Bring questions that are to the point.
32. S. (01:39:29) What does it mean when a person is born and says that he has nothing?
R. That he doesn't have a Masach, screen he can't bestow, he can't do anything and in spirituality this is what is considered being born, when he is born how does he know what to do? By what can you take a step forward?
S. What does it mean that he is born?
R. When he is born in spirituality?
S. Okay so he has bestowal already, why nothing?
R. He has the opportunity for a bestowal.
S. I don't understand either he's born or is not?
R. A person that is born in this world is he already existing in this world?
S. He's a baby.
R. Yes, he's a baby on his own. He's not capable of doing anything.
S. Yes.
R. That's what they're talking about.
S. So he's born. He has no action and no nothing.
R. You understand what that is?
S. How does it grow from there?
R. We will get there and you will understand but trust me it is the same thing and truly in parallel if he doesn't have a father and a mother he cannot exist.
33. S. (01:40:55) We have learned that humanity is receiving such a lot of suffering according to what it is capable of putting up with and to that same extent of suffering what is it dependent upon?
R. The sufferings that come to humanity come as a result of previous actions that humanity has been through and to the extent which it advanced correctly or incorrectly towards the purpose of creation. As much as it is capable of taking on the changes and advances towards the purpose of creation in a purposeful way. Altogether from this, the forces that operate humanity guide us to the next step.
34. S. (01:42:06) Is it correct to say that the birth is restriction and the circumcision is when there is a screen?
R. It is much more complicated but we will learn that, yes the circumcision is where we cancel our will to receive upon which we cannot work with the screen and the reflected light.
35. S. (01:42:54) In humanity the result of this connection is in the ten. We see the results of the connection, could it be a beginning of connection, Ibur?
R. Yes, of course. We are in the beginning of the connection in all of the forms that we want to advance and come closer to.
36. S. (01:43:29) You said we are not an example to the world and we need to aspire to be an example to the world in which way?
R. No, we don't need to show an example to the world because the world doesn't have the same vessels we do. They don't have the same connection with the Creator as we do and therefore, we need to just show the world from our level to the degree of level of minus one, one less degree what the world can digest and implement. It is just like we are towards the little children. I don't show my little children my actions that are such that they will do the same, I show them something lesser than me as much as they are capable of doing so that they will understand me and carry out what I expect of them. It is the same with our relation to the world that we have to, in the right attitude and the right way with love with the right system of education to relate to the world in that way.
37. S. (01:45:09) Before the embryo has Peh what is the control over him?
R. Control from who?
S. The embryo before he has a Peh, mouth.
R. Does it have control from who upon it?
S. The mother?
R. The mother always has control.
S. We were reading at the embryo has a mouth, what happened before that?
R. He has the umbilical cord and he receives through the umbilical cord.

(01:46:01)
Is
birth
the
next
degree
we
must
play
with
in
the
ten?
R.
We
for
certain
have
to
unite
between
us
until
we
feel
such
a
degree
of
connection
that
in
this
connection
between
us
we
feel
spiritual
birth
that
is
what
stands
before
us.
Try
and
see
this
state
in
which
you
are
being
born
spiritually
in
the
connection
between
you,
truly
the
next
stage
is
worthwhile
for
us
to
depict
this
as
much
as
possible
and
to
connect
to
that.
There
are
people
that
are
very
close,
very

there
are

39. S. (01:47:18) To make a circumcision these desires have to do with bodily or human desires?
R. I don't understand what you're asking, it is all spiritual, what does it have to do with the body, I don't know?
S. Let's say desires for a food, sex, money, control?
R. We're not talking about this or about that. We are talking about desire for connection and there I need to perform upon myself actions, so that those desires that I cannot participate in connection with, I do not take those into account. For the time being let it be that way but it has nothing to do with this world.
