1.Rav’s Introduction: Ruin as an opportunity for correction. That can happen on the condition that this is how we see it, meaning that all of the details of the ruin that we discover starting from something little in our lives all the way to bigger things that happen in human society or in the universe, it doesn't matter. Everything that we think doesn't fall into the right place or is not in the right spirit, in our spirit, it is all coming from the shattering and is what the Creator let us work on. To begin with in each and every moment we need to realize that we are facing a world prepared for us by the Creator and he is orchestrating it to the very last detail and we have to relate to each and every incident this way that we stumble upon and all of the various details that appear within us and how we relate to the world. Then after we establish ourselves this way where I position myself in a certain way and the world appears to me in a certain way, now what? After I have determined this perspective, this point of view now I have to see what is up to me to do. I need to change myself in relation to everything that is outside me to the point that I see everything fully corrected and by that I bring myself to my own final correction, and I discover that the world runs the way it does and I am changing. At first, I thought about changing the world and fixing it. Ultimately it turns out that I change myself and I fix myself and the world appears to me as the holy divinity. This is essentially what we need to take upon ourselves and try to realize in every big or small detail with such an attitude towards ourselves and the world we will see how the Creator teaches us in each and every step. In each and every moment, He is changing something in ourselves, something in the world and let us see how we can organize this game. This is called ‘playing with the whale’, how we are going to arrange things in a way where we don't change the world as we have nothing to change in the world, it really is the holy divinity that appears to us according to all our corruptions and when we change our observation, we bring the world to a greater correction each time. This is essentially our work and this correction happens within us to the extent that we are drawn to connection between us, because by that we see the world more corrupt than ourselves, more corrected meaning the same rule of ‘love your friend is yourself’ works here so as to arrange the correct vision for us and the correct site so until we come to the eternal form of ourselves and the world and we become included in the corrupted form of Shechina, the revelation of the Creator to the created beings. For now, let's learn how the Kabbalists teach us how we have to achieve that. You will ask questions as this is a very important topic. It positions us in the right way to look at reality and relate to reality and correct ourselves basically as if in order to correct reality and this is how we will advance.
2. S. (05:47) What is the game with the whale and why is it called that? Why do we use this word whale here?
R. There are a few explanations for this but in truth, I can't say that I truly understand them in depth. The whale, the Leviathan is an animal, a creature that lives in the ocean, and on the one hand, it is animate, it breathes and is similar to all of the creatures that live on the land but on the other hand it lives in the sea which means that water which refers to the force of Bina, the quality of bestowal, is in its environment, its habitat. So, on one level it is the animate level, and on the other level, it is an environment of Bina, belonging to the degree of Hochma, yet lives on the level of Bina. So, it is a level of our correction and a person needs to reach a state where he accepts this form of life where he receives the light of Hochma and with the clothing of Hasadim, this is called Leviathan, whale. And that brings us to the meal, the 'Feast of the Whale', meaning it takes all of this will to receive that has taken on the quality of reception for Hochma and the intention to give from Bina -- which we can use in full, which means we are having the Feast of the Whale, so it is an example. The problem is that in our world there aren't many ways to express the spiritual form in a corporeal way so they find such examples based upon roots and branches.
3. S. (09:00) How to see the world completely corrected or when do we need to see it corrected completely?
R. That depends upon us, how do we do that? We have to see how we organize the world we are advancing towards a state where more than half the people on the planet Earth won't have anything to do, they won't have any work to do. The pandemic is just a little example of how we are gradually leaving the work environment to sit at home and also, we can't really go out and fly to other places as people have less means to do this and also there are health restrictions. We are going to see soon and humanity as much as people don't want to see it and don't want to understand, but we are going to see humanity more at home with their computers and being able to absorb and consume a lot of material, a lot of content and correct the world this way and specifically through our education as they connect to us, they will understand that they can benefit from that just like in an ordinary work, they benefit with power, security, health, wellbeing much more than in an ordinary work. That is, through the upper light that arranges everything in life for them in the right way. Therefore we have to see ourselves that through the network that we are now developing together, through that we give the world and present the world with the method, the teaching, the network that is willing to absorb each and every one and allow, giving them a sense of progress towards the purpose of life, towards the right form of existence, and not to fall into despair from what is happening in the world but to see how all that is happening is guiding us correctly, I understand the meaning of life. You will see how soon more and more we will see that our organization and this network that we are creating in our connection becomes so urgent and necessary for masses of people. At least a little bit during the day each and every one will feel that he must drink some of that see, something about our programs that will also become more diverse and designed for both children and youth, adults and people who are studying for a long time or people who are beginners or those who just want to know a little bit to sweeten their attitude toward life and their fate. Also, for those who want to deepen their emotional impression. We need to develop different kinds of programs to give people the ability to connect to us, to connect through us to the essence of life and they will find their anchor in life, in existence. Today, people feel they are being forgotten, neglected, sitting at home with nothing to do, they are afraid of the different blows that they might suffer and we bring the opposite. We need to explain to them that all of these blows will happen far from us and we'll even transform them to not blows but positive things, good things, the same energy that exists, let's say, in a hurricane will be able to be redirected into a positive way. The same heat, let's say, that comes to us and burns our crops and forest, the same heat could be positive heat. It all depends upon how we balance positive and negative forces and try to bring them to connection between us. We mustn't ruin the desire to receive, we can't build the will to receive on its ruins, rather our whole method is about balancing the two forces. That in the right vessel in the final correction, we use the will to receive in full as well as the intention to bestow in full, the upper light. And then the darkness shines this light and by that, we explain to people that everything depends only on our attitude which organizes the forces of nature leading them to balance. Our teaching will be very pertinent and relevant to each and every person as we have to understand that, already, from now we have to create new programs that play all of the time for different kinds of populations to show that we care for them. That we explain to them what is happening gradually is love and warmth in a soft way, what we are facing and what is happening and how we can see that it is for our own good if we also work on changing ourselves accordingly. This is our work, meaning together with studying ourselves and seeing all of this material that we go through explains to us that there is nothing bad in the world, that everything is just ripe for correction. if we treat it as given for correction and if we think about the state of the last generation, meaning that we are among a lot of people that think this way and relate to things this way, then it is not hard for me to make my personal correction and my personal correction becomes incorporated with the other people's correction and this is how we transform reality. Then we will come to a point where we begin to take control of our lives shifting it from hurricanes and other natural disasters, and not just on these still level but also on the vegetative and animate level, also the speaking level, all of the extreme behavior that appears in the four levels of still, vegetative, animate and human we bring them all to balance and the result will be that we we'll come to a higher degree, the spiritual degree. That is how we will come to it from the love of the created beings to the love of the Creator.
4. S. (18:43) People that suffer in life for all kinds of reasons do we have anything to offer to them, we are talking about the revelation of the Creator and our studies or for those who have the point in the heart awakened yet people are not into that all together what do we offer them?
R. First of all, we need to understand that the percentage of people who will want to reveal the Creator is going to be maybe a percent or half of a percent of all of the human population. Where do you take that from? From the corporeal people of Israel, which is more or less the proportion of that group as opposed to the rest of the world, more or less. That is going to be pretty much the same percentage from all of humanity. You will have maybe half of a percent of the people who will yearn to contact the Creator from their own will to receive, as it is said’ our desire needs to see our King’, and all the rest we expect them to connect to the forces of nature. Only the Kabbalists are the ones who are talking about this in a rational manner that it will become gradually revealed, at first it will be disregarded as if we don't exist, silence in our world about something is as if it doesn't exist, but it can help only in corporeal matters. We belong to the higher spiritual forces of nature so we cannot be silent, no one can silence us. This will become revealed. Sometimes it becomes silenced for a period of time, and maybe after a few hundred years it appears again. Some things go out and then they go back into silence, into exile, and then they come out again. But in our case, we are already in the era of the final correction, so it is not going to happen anymore. We just have to further and further develop educational programs to explain to all age groups, to all kinds of people in all languages for different kinds of mentalities of people to bring the method of correction, the reason for this state that we are in, that humanity is in, to bring it closer and more accessible to each and every one and this is our work towards the Creator and towards humanity. We basically need to feel ourselves as committed to that that we exist for that to be the pioneers on behalf of humanity towards the Creator, the connecting force. The more we make efforts in that by that we will feel we are closer to the Creator because we fulfill His desire and so I am asking each and every one in each and every place in any language, whatever culture or education you come from it doesn't matter, if you have an opportunity to build, to make some action of explanation. There is dissemination and there is explanation or education. Dissemination is more the advertising and the explanation is the different ways of education, of how we explain, maybe in short form, through stories, in whatever ways we can approach people to explain what the situation is we are in and how we need to approach the good life, why is it the only way that we can achieve the good life and how does it appear to us. It all depends upon how we aim to be the messengers of the Creator towards humanity. In our effort, not in our success but in our effort, we ourselves will feel how much we advance in our understanding and our ability to explain in all of our corrections because, ultimately, it is impossible that our correction will be more than what we need to communicate to others. What we communicate to them is on a lower level but we exist only as a conduit as it is written in The Introduction to the Book of Zohar, that we are only a conduit, a passageway, between all of humanity, all of the souls and the Creator. This passageway, this adapter needs to realize that it's connection with the Creator depends on how it is connected to all of the souls, to all of humanity willing to care for them. Accordingly, it will advance and otherwise it won't, otherwise, there is no point. The Creator is not interested in taking a group of souls and correcting them, but only on the condition that they engage in the work of the general correction and by that we will also gain a special relationship with the Creator.
5. S. (25:40) Just like you divided it into explanatory and dissemination, so in the 10 each of us has a role in explanation. About a week ago we started a pilot where we do dissemination as a 10, and first of all we feel great advancement in the connection between us, and the question is about the future. Do we see this as a correct form that there will actually be dissemination that emerges from the 10 and what are the advantages of this? Do you see any correct development of the 10s?
R. Of course, each and every 10 that make certain that it is going out to disseminate as broad as possible benefits from it because it receives additional external vessels, and then the Creator relates to them, not only as their desire, their personal desire, but the way in which they want to connect and correct the vessels that are outside of the 10, outside the boundaries of the 10 and this is the inclination towards bestowal. It turns out that from day-to-day the more that we try to approach the public in a good way, in a positive and correct way, we discover the area where the Creator can work, and by that, we gain both power and the mind on how to make corrections to come closer and closer to the final correction.
S. Is there a difference between me disseminating and absorbing the deficiency to bring it to the 10 or a deficiency from when we disseminate together?
R. In dissemination, there are different styles as each one is interconnected with everyone. When we are discovering the system of the last generation, we still keep ourselves in the 10 in order to reach a sense of connection of one heart from several hearts we achieve the one thought and one intention from several intentions as we still need to acquire these vessels of connection in mind and in heart, and action. Basically, the 10 then expands more, becoming required because of what the Creator is doing in the world. It is becoming required that we will begin to be more expansive, to emerge from the boundary of the 10, into the general 10, of all of Bnei Baruch. Also, to see how we approach and cover all of humanity and all of the still, vegetative, and animate levels in our intention, in our relation to them is becoming required. I am seeing the forces are moving towards this.
6. S. (29:44) How does such a small group of Bnei Baruch reach so many millions of people that we need to reach?
R. That is not a problem, you just need to know a little bit of examples of how it works in nature. In our brain, there is this very tiny marble, maybe it is one square millimeter or so, kind of like a microprocessor that is governing everything that is happening in us. All of these signals in it come to that area and then everything comes out of it and it is responsible for processing all of the data and activating everything. What exists in each and every one of us is this tiny spark from the Creator, from the light and that is the spark that we need to activate, a tiny spark but we have to distinguish it from all of the rest of matter and respect it. Make actions only in it as this is called part of God above that exists in each and everyone. If we try to give it importance and relate to, specifically, that and not relate to anything else as there is a lot of noise around it, a lot of things that have no correct form and don't belong to the final goal. But if we treat only that microprocessor, that works according to the program of the final correction, then you will activate the whole world ourselves, the relationship between us and the whole of reality as the Creator does, and this is what the Creator wants from us. He instilled this spark in each and every one and He wants us to connect these sparks together and then from there to manage the whole of reality that he created for us, then like it is written, like the King's son that grows to receive all of the kingdom from the King and as he knows how to use it correctly.
7. S. (33:08) The method of explaining to the public, how should we come close to the audience and how can we explain to them what is really happening?
R. I don't know, I assume you are in Mexico as I am seeing, I am also looking at a few Mexican friends next to you; you understand the character and spirit, and the style of the population around you. So at least towards them you can take this method that we are studying in a universal way that is equal to all and adapt it better for your audience. Why your audience? Because they don't necessarily want connection with godliness, to rise above this level of life, they want to know why things happen to them and life like they are and how we can make things better for themselves in the future and for the children's future. We need to begin to explain to them a little bit of the wisdom of Kabbalah, not in a way that is in conflict with religions as we have to take into account where people are, it's difficult to convince them otherwise and we don't need to, we're not trying to convince we're only trying to add something good to their life. I think about it, start thinking about it and you will see how each and every one is capable, why am I saying each and every one is capable? Because each and every one is like an item in the system of Adam HaRishon receiving from everyone and transmitting through himself to everyone. So, this role is what we need to realize, the smallest, the most ignorant, the laziest, it doesn't matter, we still have to reach a state where you realize your existence, the reason for which you have evolved and how you realize yourself in the collective system of the collective soul. To the extent that you connect with others in that collective soul, you begin to feel your eternity, the true system you are in and not this world. Also, the spiritual state of existence, that is basically what we want everyone to begin feeling, that they have an opportunity through this connection, through the mutual concern that needs to be in an integrated system, the integral system of Adam HaRishon by that we all beginning to reveal spirituality, the spiritual world, our eternal state.
8. S. (36:55) You said we should act as adapters. People suffer a lot of times but they quickly forget about it. Why should I work for them? Isn't it enough to strengthen the bond between us?
R. No, it is insufficient and Baal HaSulam writes about this, Kabbalistic talk a lot about this. As we have to care about the final correction, which is the entrance of all people of the world into connection between us. By that we make connections between each and every one, each and every person. Don't look at people in their external appearance, that they are so dumb or perceive that they are not receptive, it depends upon the size of the soul that they carry. This is what we need and this is the general correction, the final correction. That each and everyone has a piece of the Adam HaRishon and we need to correct it, because it is an integral system, each and every one of us is interconnected with all of the souls, it doesn't matter who and we need to assist, because by that I don't correct my own soul, my soul is a smeared over, or across all of the other souls as it resides in each and everyone else and so we need to achieve a connection between everyone all the way towards ultimate love between everyone as that is the final correction.
9. S. (39:22) Advances in modern science and physics there is an approach to show Kabbalah in a scientific light which is not a threat to religious belief in some ways it supports it as a resolution of the two. Would it be advisable to present Kabbalah in such a manner to the general public?
R. I don't know exactly what you are referring to, I have my own perspective on this but basically the wisdom of Kabbalah does not resist science, any kind of science. Of course, on the contrary, it respects science in that it can help explain the wisdom of Kabbalah because the wisdom of Kabbalah is also a science, a general science about the whole of reality, that is for certain. And the religions, we don't want to touch them because there are all kinds of customs and rituals and stereotypes, stigmas that people have absorbed, dogma that people have absorbed over the years and have embraced as rules that is why we don't touch it even though it doesn't bother us. They are Customs that people have gotten used to so as Baal HaSulam says, people can keep their customs, while being a great Kabbalist that can carry out customs that belong to their people. It's not a problem, we are not in conflict with that.
10. S. (41:41) You just said our soul is smeared over all of reality but I cannot make corrections with 7 billion people, practically. So where is the limit, how do I connect to my 10 with a thousand, a hundred thousand or a million because we always speak about quantity so what is the rule of quantity here?
R. We certainly need to make certain that we expand like we see that the blows, the troubles that have happened recently and are happening that they are global problems that come from nature and that is nature which is Elokim, nature, the influence of all of us from above and certainly we need to try to relate to humanity explaining to everyone what is our purpose, what we need to achieve and how, what is the correction about and that is how we get close to it. We have everything we just need to realize it.
S. Is it correct that it is more for our sake than for the people?
R. It is interdependence, one depends upon the other. Right now, it is not yet evident, not yet clear, but we are quickly coming to a stage where we won't be able to advance unless we practically make actions in the masses, not just in the 10. The final correction means that we expand, it means that at least as much as you can, as far as you can, as much as the Creator gives you an opportunity that you spread the method of correction, the wisdom of correction, the purpose of correction, what humanity is facing, that you explain to humanity in a comfortable and pleasant way to everyone -- that depends and determines your spiritual progress. We learned that from the system itself, there is a state called Galgalta ve Eynaim GE (see sketch Rav Drawing) and these are the people who are the Bnei Baruch and there are people who don't belong to us at all but it is a huge amount of people that exist in all of humanity, this is called AHP. GE is in contact with the Creator as we have reached a state where we built ourselves as GE and how can we be in contact with the Creator as GE is in a state that it has the light of Hasidim the level of Bina and Chafetz Hesed, delighted in Mercy and AHP is vessels of reception. This is the Keter, Hochma, and Bina are in GE, and all the rest are in AHP. If we need to reach the general final correction, in the time of the last generation that we have to prepare the AHP, all of humanity to the state where it is ready to receive from us the corrections. So first, we need to connect to them, to give them the urgency of correction that they need, that they have the deficiencies they just don't see how it is related to the general process and development of humanity and how humanity needs correction. All of those needs to be received from the upper force; and, so as a result of this, we are going to feel that they want to receive from us and then they raise MAN towards us, common deficiency, and when they raise this deficiency to us, we can then already transform this deficiency to a prayer towards the Creator which they can't. When we raise that through GE upwards will receive in return from the Creator, everything that we need to communicate what we receive from the Creator to them. We are in the level of Bina, we don't need anything for ourselves, for them. This is how the mechanism works GE and AHP and a whole wisdom of Kabbalah discuss his only this of how we stabilize ourselves correctly towards the Creator on one hand and towards the AHP or ZAT on the other hand and then it turns out that all of this becomes a complete system - Keter, Hochma, Bina, and the lower seven, HGTNHYM. Malchut includes all the rest.
S. Suppose a friend is in the top part in GE praying with his friend with the aspiration to be a conduit.
and he works in the aspiration to awaken these marbles, what you just explained, what is preventing the disconnection between this little group, this quality of connection?
R. It will expand to the AHP on the condition that you received the deficiencies from them and raise them up words because we, as GE, have no deficiencies. In truth, our deficiencies are only how to serve the Creator by serving the AHP, humanity and that is how we need to be between the two that we are truly between the two forces. Therefore, we receive pleasure from above and pressure from below and all of our work is to be the adapter that goes towards the Creator and towards the created beings. Towards the Creator we can be in contact if we raise to him the efficiencies which we raised to him need to be that we care for everyone to bring everyone to the end of correction as an obligation to end our commitment and for the Creator as we do this, we bring Him contentment because he can bestow to the created beings to all of the creatures and by that he will have contentment. This is what we need to bestowal for, to the whole world and also to strengthen the bonds between us and the Creator but our connection with the Creator also will not be correct and good if we are not impressed with the world because I need to receive from them their deficiencies see, I need to process their deficiencies in the correct way towards the Creator. To ask Him for corrections, relations to such an extent, to such forces that I can be the transition of these forces to the whole world. We need to see these things in a real, correct and transparent and revealed manner as you will see that it will happen this way and we are just at the beginning of our way and we need to know how to bring ourselves closer to this.
11. S. (54:05) Since the lockdown ended, people around my age turn back to nightclubs and we are part of Bnei Baruch in the morning lesson. It is hard to connect with the young people. Should we change something in our organization towards the young people?
R. I think we need to do this through the networks in a nice way. And we also have to be cautious according to the government to not be against anything and that includes the religions as well and whoever is interested in this will find us for the time being. Other than that, we are in a state of waves of the virus that is attacking us where we once again enter into lockdown and other ways that the virus will work on us, not just this virus but other things. Therefore, we need to try for the time being to arrange ourselves correctly in order to explain to every person everywhere on every single level that we have no choice. The connection between us can neutralize all of the problems see, you will see that it will be possible to explain his people will despair from all of these things in these waves of lockdowns, freedoms and another lockdown and again and again as this will wear people down and we will have a lack of water and food. In our lives other natural disasters will come with heat and flooding forms. People will start to see the problem is not that they don't have a possibility of going out to have fun at the clubs but that their entire life is how to arrange life somewhat in how to exist and then we will be able to talk to them more seriously. Where this comes from, why it comes and how we can protect ourselves to keep ourselves from such blows. We need to talk about these things not just during the blow, that we are waiting for the blow to come and then we will talk about it, then it is hard to hear. On the contrary, between the blows when a person is not quite under pressure then we need to explain to them what the remedy is, what the medicine is.
S. As we learned from you there are two ways to connect to correction, one way is the path of suffering and struggle and the other way is the path of the Light. So actually, I don't want my generation to suffer and to go through pain. How can I make them choose the path of life without suffering?
R. That is what we are talking about all the time is that question always stands before us. This is why we need to know what the reason for the blow is, why do they come our way? And then we learn that they come in a purposeful way to aim us towards a certain development towards a certain direction towards a certain state and if we don't agree then we feel this guidance as blows, pressure, disaster. A person who receives blows on his head, the flooding at home, fires, a shortage of food, health, all sorts of things that on the level of animate operate on him and he feels the deficiencies. He starts to think about this life on the degree of animate that I am in and it raises him from the feeling of suffering to think of something higher: why am I alive, what is the benefit of life? When he used to go around to different clubs the problem wasn't why am I alive now it is. He is already on a higher state where he is already asking about the upliftment of the ascent, you just wait and you will see what will happen with all of those wear downs that we are experiencing.
12. S. (01:00:53) How can I broadcast the wisdom of Kabbalah, disseminate it without creating shame?
R. Shame? I don't know, are you stealing or doing something with it? You just need to see the right way that brings people a feeling that you are telling them something important; it brings honor to you. Why shame? Respect. Maybe I don't understand what you're asking?
S. People, at least in my close environment where I can disseminate the wisdom of Kabbalah, don't recognize that we are naturally egoists. They think “others are egoists, but not me” and that creates some sort of shame because it causes them to see the ego like that.
R. You are explaining things they don't understand, they don't feel those things. They think you're somewhere in the clouds, in some philosophy and psychology and therefore they're not relating to you seriously. They think you are delusional. That’s not what you need to explain to them, rather, you need to go from the side of how they feel life. They feel blows coming their way, they have all kinds of reasons from these viruses to the hurricanes and all kinds of things. You need to explain to them why this comes to us, why the global nature is pressing us and arranging us in such a way that is not nice. Why is he pressing us? Then, explain these things to them that we also need to be like nature, all together in harmony, and mutual connection, in a round manner. We are in a round manner because we are human beings, the highest level of all developments, where nature starts with inanimate to vegetative to animal to people. If we reach that state in which we agree and accept this circle, this whole globe, this whole sphere of still, vegetative, and animate where only the degree of man, the egoist, is corrupting all of nature, if we will want to be connected correctly with all of the other parts of nature, then there will be peace and calm, balance and good all over the land.
All that remains will be to come into balance. This is what we learned from all the different forms of nature as it is all drawn towards connection, towards balance. How can we be drawn toward this balance? You explain this slowly. We have a lot of material to explain this, we’ve got plenty of material on the topic. Try to write about it this way and that way in another time and then you will see what style you are more drawn towards and you start here and there to emerge to explain. We have a special group where you can send what you write, no matter what language, and they will examine it, correct it and tell you what is worthwhile to write in this manner or another. You will also learn from it; learn more advanced forms of dissemination and you will improve. You will see how much you benefit from this as you won't be alone anymore in the ten. Rather behind you there will be more people and then you will receive care from the Creator, and for them, and by that you will advance.
13. S. (01:06:17) If we say there is deficiency, a corporeal deficiency from the people and we take this into the center of the ten and ask the Creator to fulfill them and to mitigate the judgments, is that effective for the ten?
R. Of course, if I care for something external, receive from them, pass it upwards to the Creator and receive from the Creator and pass it on downwards to the external groups, then because I am connected to the ten it is also a good addition for the whole ten.
14. S. (01:07:11) I feel we are at a crossroads where, on one hand, the person doesn't want to hear that we are talking to him about his dying day. As a personal experience as a communicator, fear and terror was never a good idea to communicate a new concept; on the other hand, I feel that if we also talked about some peaceful world and agreements between people, then we sound like hippies or New Agers. I can't come out of that state where I've already existed for over fifteen years. What to do?
R. The advice I can give you is one: connect to our writer’s center in Bnei Baruch and they will guide you correctly. You don't need fifteen years to know how to write correctly. Hear, learn from them, ask them. It is truly strange to hear, as I have known you for many years, that you still have yet to find a style that is yours, personal, nice and correct for a certain type of population. It is truly a wonder and I don't have an answer for that. Make contact with the people who are in charge of these things with us as they have great experience and they are very successful. You can ask them.

If
we
disseminate
and
explain
things
to
the
public
what
kind
of
response
are
we
expecting?
R.
We
expect
only
one
response,
for
them
to
care
for
what
we
write.
That
form
of
care,
positive
or
negative,
is
not
important
to
us
as
long
as
there
is
either
a
positive
or
negative
connection
and
we
can
continue
with
them
in
these
scrutinies.
16. S. (01:10:03) Is the readiness of the nations of the world for the wisdom of Kabbalah dependent upon our readiness to communicate it or will they come to this regardless?
R. The nations of the world can't come to the wisdom of Kabbalah on their own, they come to it through those who engage in the wisdom of Kabbalah. There are several as such, not just us. Let's hope that we will all succeed. I wish success to everyone because we are coming closer to the end of correction. It is written there are many ways to the Creator and many others managed to open dissemination centers of connection and in this we may come to the correction of the world. It is not that we are alone. Each has his own style, his own approach, and this is how it is. It's written that a person will not study but in a place that his heart desires. There are people that love to be connected with the upper Force through all sorts of external rituals and customs. There are those who like to do it only through the study of TES where it gives them some feeling of belonging to spirituality even though they don't understand what they're reading and don't feel it in practice but only in their intellect. They feel that there is something there, but no more than that, they have a certain interest in that. We have this, and we have that. I don’t think there is one universal thing that suits everyone. Whoever is drawn to this, is drawn, and whoever is not does not hold on with force.
S. Can we somehow speed this up so that they will want to reach the wisdom of Kabbalah or that doesn't depend upon us?
R. It's what you are doing for this.
17. S. (01:12:55) Can you explain the example of the microprocessor? How does this work between us and humanity?
R. I just think that it is possible to use this example relative to that one if you know how it works in the body or in the system, as you are a professor of those things. Depict to yourself how it is also in the souls. There is nothing difficult here, the systems are similar.
S.
You're
talking
about
an
internal
system,
not
an
external
system,
correct?
R.
No,
of
course,
this
is
a
spiritual
system.
S. What do we need to do to cause a system to work?
R. In our connections, desires, thoughts, inclinations we bring ourselves closer to one another and bestow more to one another. By this we awaken the work of the upper part from above, the soul or say, the microprocessor of everyone, if you will, that will operate more correctly and arrange more intensively the connection between all of its parts, in Adam.
S. These efforts we make in our thoughts and actions, how did you use that as an explanation? You said that we need to explain to humanity in words and examples. How is this connected to the operation of the inner system?
R. We are explaining to humanity how connected we are together and that we have a special brain, a special heart, meaning a unified one, that it is everyone's and that we are in a system that is all Adam HaRishon that is seemingly divided into thousands and thousands of pieces. It seems to us that those parts are disconnected from one another and even contradictory to one another, but that is not correct. We are actually connected to one another and dependent upon one another.
Our work is to connect ourselves to one force, to one system. We do all we can do through our desires and thoughts. It's not that we want the same thought, but rather that each should work on his own, in his own microprocessor, and each should work in the direction of the same goal. We connect in the same goal. It is written, “for our heart will rejoice in Him”, where everyone connects through one Creator. This is how we are activating ourselves.
18. S. (1:16:38) Will we know how to identify who needs to join us, to GE, and who is supposed to be in AHP?
R. Those who join us, to the GE, usually come to our courses. Slowly, slowly, those who arrive at our courses and altogether in our system, enter and become what we call the Galgalta ve Eynaim. The difference between GE and AHP is that Galgalta ve Eynaim is first in this necessary connection between them or trying to achieve this connection in the tens, and from the tens begin to achieve connection with the Creator. Also, on the other hand, they try to emerge from themselves and to come to all of the tens and to the external public. This is in relation to people who are connected to the GE.
S. In our dissemination we need to know how to identify them and turn to them in a specific way?
R. No, you give them an opportunity to come and study and to incorporate in our tens. There’s a network for that.
19. S. (01:18:09) The microprocessor in the corporeal body, that part of God above, do you mean the amygdala?
R. I don't know what that is and I don't want to talk about that. It’s the godly part from above, the personal soul of a person.
20. S. (01:18:32) Do I need to correct myself and the world will be corrected? Do we need to perform actions toward the world, to give them something, some material? Do they need to connect with us or is it all correction within me?
R. It is all the correction within me as much as I can depict reality inside of me. You will have no problem because as you emerge out of yourself to correct all of humanity you are actually correcting your soul. It all depends upon the way that you look at it and how you see them.
21. S. (01:19:43) About this perspective point that the friend asked about, how we need to teach humanity how to determine that. The question is whether it is just according to seeing the state within me or there is another way to do this?
R. I don't understand the question.
S. This perspective where we go through the pandemic, troubles and plagues. We need to look at these states correctly. How do we determine this perspective correctly, to look at the situation in the right way?
R. I can change it each time and see it in a different way. Once I look at it from within my ten, and another time I look at it from the whole body of Adam HaRishon, meaning like from the whole general soul. Once I look at it from the AHP, of how humanity feels and what they expect and see, it depends upon what I am clothed in, but eventually I need to make sure that I am caring for my connection with the ten and through it to the Creator. Also, my connection with either the ten, or not to ten, in my connection with all of humanity, how to disseminate the method of correction to them. The Creator wants us all together and he gave us the knowledge of the corrections, about the purpose of creation, so that we will participate in this and draw all of humanity to Him. Therefore, we are called the chosen people and we need to realize this. There is nothing here that that is something we can avoid or run away from.
22. S. (01:21:58) Can you explain how our connection awakens the Reshimot through the dissemination and how it affects humanity?
R. If I am inclined towards connection, I awaken the Reshimot that awaken in me and they come closer to connection. As these Reshimot come close to connection in me, they are connected to all of the Reshimot that were in contact with them in the system of Adam HaRishon, and also awaken them. I see from my personal way of seeing things, I am creating a shock in all the souls, in all of the human beings in the world. It is just that they don't feel it because they don't yet have work with the soul, with the Reshimot, with the shattered pieces. I bestow to them just as babies bestow to me if they do such work. This is how we bestow upon one another.
23. S. (01:23:43) We want to make sure that every ten does the broadest dissemination possible as a ten. How important is this as compared to each person continuing in their own project?
R. That I don’t know. You need to make connection to boardworldkli@gmail.com and ask who they should turn to, who is responsible and this is where you will find all of the answers. I don't know. I also don't know how to disseminate. Let's say yesterday I did a discussion, a conversation, for a whole hour with a certain journalist from Colombia and what happens with that later I don't know. I'm sure it is absorbed somewhere at our place and later our writers process it and use it in all of their writings and he will use it also, as he is very well known on his behalf. All of these recorded things can be passed on and used as well. Be in contact with that email and through them you will see how it is done. I myself don't know, I just talk and what is done out of it, I don’t know. Just like you see my discussions with the writers, like today at ten o’clock this morning I had a conversation with the writers. What they do with it later I hope they are doing correct and good.
S. Yes of course we are in contact with them getting clear instructions. The question is really ideologically if there is a picture with regards to that?
R. What does that mean?
S. Does each ten work separately? It is not clear.
R. Every ten cannot operate in dissemination like we are talking about. This is personal dissemination from each and every one, as each write and each talk, the ten cannot be here as one. I have yet to see such a thing, it is nevertheless creation and composition needs to come from a person.
24. S. (01:26:50) So far, we talked about only disseminating the method, not attracting people to us. What has changed?
R. I didn’t understand.
S. The question is do we only disseminate the method or do we also expect that through disseminating more people will come to us?
R. When you are disseminating you can add that we have courses, we have a place where we can absorb people that is an entry into our study, that you can enter in a freeway, and that is available in many languages. I don't check or examine all these things but I think people who write, especially when it comes out of boardworldkli@gmail.com, there is a certain supervision of how to advertise things correctly and guide a person toward connection.
S. In principle do we need to be the teachers of humanity directly or do we need to be the ideological body and other bodies will come and communicate that to people?
R. This and that. It depends upon the characteristic of a person. If there are people here with the characteristics and abilities to teach and they want to invest themselves in that, then let them invest themselves.
S. You opened and said that we need to develop a network, what exactly is that network? Is it an educational network that connects people to us?
R. You are, say, our main writer. You have been learning with me, what, 15 years?
S. Seventeen years.
R. Seventeen? I'm not going to come and answer anything to you now. You need to answer these questions both to yourself and towards others. I don't have anything else to say. All that I have from morning to night, if I say something, you are in it and you hear. I can't give any innovations for that. Please try to explain now in place of me to others what you are asking.
Excerpt 10 (01:33:26)
25. S. (01:35:14) Your words go deep into a person's heart and I feel there is truth here, it does not depend on the words, but that we speak from the heart. So, what is the secret here?
R. It depends on the connection between the hearts, sometimes we feel from heart to heart without words and sometimes it goes through the words which are much weaker.
26. S. (01:36:03) What does it mean to ask for the Creator to give an opportunity to bestow?
R. Ask, simply ask, turn to the Creator, He is close to you, closer than any friend. it is written that He will not be a foreign God to you so that you can ask him to really answer you and connect to you and come closer to you. Understand you, answer you, you just need to connect.
S. How to connect?
R. He doesn’t have a secret number that you need to dial, you only need to want to connect, he is always there but when you speak into that connection into that wire then it comes.
S. How to turn to him so it is not an abstract force but something close?
R. Depends upon you on the relationship you develop.
S. How do I develop this relationship?
R. Look at little children, babies when they want to connect with someone what do they do, when they want to connect to someone what do they do? You start with all kinds of forms of connection like this and then more and more until you learn how to express to the Creator a desire for the new internality of the heart openly. Because we really want to open our hearts to him so he will read from there even if we don't feel it, try it as it is all men as internal effort.
27. S. (01:38:26) Why does our general correction depend on the correction of the heart?
R. I still don't understand the question, what is correct besides the heart? We need to correct only the heart, all the questions are only about the heart, the heart is the desire. How do we correct our desires? I ask from within the desire I should receive the answer and I am constantly concerned with the changes in the desire.
Excerpt 11 (01:39:41) Twice
28. R. (01:43:43) This is how we should relate to what is happening but more correctly, meaning more advanced. Now we are beginning a part that is called the correction of the shattering when we aim ourselves to the purpose of creation that is in the end, ahead of us and that everything that we have now and what we had, is what the Creator deliberately prepared for us in a corrupted way, broken ways so that we have to go through these things in order to learn in what world we exist. What connections there are among all of the parts and pieces in the system of worlds, how we can become oriented in it, how we can manage it. The Creator deliberately broke this complete system and we need to study it, that system and its broken form and we learn it only by wanting to correct ourselves and then when we come to the corrections we understand, just like we are sitting in the world now that it is the world that the Creator is spoiling on purpose so that we will correct it. Thereby learn the work of the Creator by this to become like Him, that we will learn everything He wants to teach in the world in the broken world and we will be in the corrected world so we will know him to the fullest depth, we will know how he behaves, we will know how to operate correctly and bring it to the final correction and it will all be on us, on our name and then you will be as god knowing good and evil. You know and receive everything broken; this is called evil. You know it, you check it, you study it and you bring it into the good form so you know good and evil and bad and then you become as God.
29. S. (01:46:46) Is humanity divided into circles on different degrees of connection?
R. Yes of course, on the system of Adam HaRishon, there are many connections in it, all of those connections our systems, internal systems and all of the types of connection, levels of connection of course a great many kinds. It is like in a human body, where you have the whole body, that you have the blood circulation, the lymph system, the nervous system and all kinds of systems even such that we don't know yet. This is what we have in the system of the soul.
30. S. (01:47:41) A lot of people believe in heaven and hell, this is an obstacle for them, what should our approach be in dissemination against such situations?
R. Tell them that heaven is when we are all connected and hell is the opposite, when everyone hates everyone else and is willing to harm them, every single moment and then a fire burns them from within. The fire of hatred, of hell and in the Garden of Eden it is the opposite, that they feel love from one another and they feel free. We also have heaven and hell in this world. In this feeling and also in the spiritual feeling. This is why we need to, from the very beginning, try to come to heaven.
31. S. (01:48:59) What does it mean to correct my intention from myself to bestowing for the 10?
R. What is the reason that you want to do good things in your life? Why are you doing it? You need to come to a state where you think who the recipient is of what I am doing, the results of your work. If it is for the 10 and within the 10 is the Creator, then you are doing it toward the Creator. If it is not into the 10 then you also need to see to your corporeal life, but in a way that your body lives everyone lives, but why are they living? Here is where you need to justify their existence.
32. S. (01:50:11) From the text we can understand that the circles are the wicked but they can't connect better than the state they are disbursed and the straightness are those desiring for the Creator. That is a force that no matter what the differences are, we are aiming all together to get there and it is a nice system, how can we implement this in the 10?
R. Just like that I have nothing more to say.
33. S. (01:50:53) The excerpt just read reminds me of a sentence you said three days ago, you said to run ahead means to be closer to one another. Is it right for this excerpt?
R. It could be, I don't like questions that are not related to the issue itself.
34. S. (01:51:27) I am developing towards the degree of the Creator; the Creator is making all of the connections and I am only asking?
R. You are the operator, there is no other force that operates other than the Creator, but you are the operator and that is what counts.
35. S. (01:52:02) Baal HaSulam writes, to correct the wicked, everybody rules with his own heart and then they cannot connect like the circles, he says they cannot connect. What we see today is that this country is falling apart, the governments falling apart, everything is falling apart. I personally don't see anything good happening in the country or in the world so how do you say everything will invert?
R. Is there a better way to reach corrections? Besides going through all of the shattering, of course we will come to the corrected form but why get into troubles, so we need to do everything to come from the current point to the correct point and be happy that we are going through the breaking. No one is happy when he is in pain. Ahead of us in the whole world are very unpleasant states, very unpleasant. Why do we need this if we can accelerate the correction and come to the corrected state quickly and nicely.
S. But I'm asking, where can you get the confidence that something good will happen in the world?
R. Because it depends upon us, on how to the extent to which we ask of the Creator how much is the extent we awaken Him. There are two forces operating in the world, deficiency from us to the Creator and the ability of the Creator to do anything He wants. So, if we awaken Him to do good things, to correct what He did on purpose as broken, so that we return to Him then we need to do it and not avoid it. You are saying whatever happens, happens, so you are avoiding our main work for which the Creator created the corruption, for you to turn to Him and in the connection with Him that you will come to the essence of life, to the purpose of life, to reveal spirituality. You are running away from it; you are saying what is going to happen is going to happen. No, we are learning how to change these things in order to make it good in the eyes of God and man.
S. In your state do you feel we are advancing or doing something good in the world?
R. We can advance that is why I am here to make it from a possibility to a certainty.
36. S. (01:55:36) What is a benefit of the shattering of the temple twice when it was already the shattering of the vessels?
R. The benefit from the breaking is that there are broken parts from which we can arrange the right connection. The breaking means that the ego is revealed and the resistance between them, and the correction means that we bring in the power of connection between them. There's no difference in anything, no one is running away from his place, no one leaves the connection except, instead of the bad connection that was revealed during the ruin, the good connection will come. That is called the breaking of the system.
S. I think he is asking, if there was a shattering of the vessels, why do we need two Temples to shatter afterwards?
R. The breaking of the system happened in the system itself and the two ruins that followed happened in order to sort and scrutinize the breaking of the vessels on a human level. That breaking of the vessel, no one felt it, as it was as a preparation on the spiritual level. But afterwards, on the level where souls are already present and connected, the breaking happens between them, this is the ruin on the level of Mochin of Chaya and Neshama. Mochin of Chaya is the ruin of the first temple and Mochin of Neshama is the ruin of the second temple.
37. S. (01:57:50) How did the righteous in the straightness correct the wicked in the circles?
R. In the circles we don't have righteous or wicked, I don't understand how you depict it this way. the circles exist around the straightness in order to add from themselves to the straightness, we haven't learned it, we will learn it later.
38. S (01:58:43) What depends on the Creator answering a person's request? What should be the quality in the plea?
R. The Creator answers a person's request immediately, the only question is, whether a person hears, deciphers the answer of the Creator correctly, this is the problem. When we ask the Creator, He immediately answers. This is a system that has no delays, it answers immediately, the problem is: do we understand what we are getting is the answer? That is the only problem, that we are not feeling, revealing, receiving or accepting the answer of the Creator, we don't understand that what is happening, is already the answer.
S. So our work is to better the quality of our plea in order to get the best response possible?
R. Yes you can put it this way.
39. S. (02:00:30) Sometimes in the lesson like today I feel uncertain if I should ask, I can't find the right question, does that mean that I am doing something wrong during the lesson to lack the right question?
R. You don't need to regret not being able to ask, you need to delve more into what we are learning, you have excerpts in front of you, delve into it and ask according to that, if you really feel you have a question and if you don't, then be careful not to take off time that belongs to everyone. The main thing we need is to look at Creation in a healthy way, correctly. So that everything in front of us, around us and within us is what the Creator deliberately corrupted, on purpose, so that we would learn how to arrange it correctly, how one thing should fit with the other in all kinds of situations. Then out of all of this, we will know how to operate it and it is not like we need to operate it by ourselves, we will realize that ‘by your actions we will know you’, so we will understand Him by our actions: we will understand the intellect, the feeling and the purpose of creation by us putting these pieces of creation together ourselves, then we look at creation the way the Creator does and by this we become similar to Him, we rise to his level. Therefore, when I see in front of me something broken, every time I need to see that this was given to me to correct so that I will understand and feel and approach the Creator more and more. This is why as it is written a person has to be thankful for the bad as for the good, that both come in order for us to approach the Creator.
Excerpt 12 (02:03:38 -02:07:06) Twice
40. S. (02:07:08) All of our method is based upon these characters, Adam, Abraham and all the others. What is the correct way to relate to all of these depictions?
R. As parts of the system. Adam is the system that exists on the degree of Neshama, the human soul. There are systems that are in lesser height which is the degree of Chaya in animal and so on, that was Adam. The other systems are in Adam, the still, vegetative and animate; they're all in the system of Adam, the one system that the Creator created and we have to bring the system to adhesion with the Creator.
S. So Abraham and others are all systems inside the system of Adam?
R. Yes of course.
S. Somehow from these depictions because we end up putting them into corporeality, we see some person in our mind with hands and feet, but somehow through these characters we learn about the work of our soul?
R. No, what we learn in the wisdom of Kabbalah is that this has no corporeal depiction or corporeal existence, it is only forces that work in the system of Adam HaRishon.
41. S. (02:09:28) Is it our desire to please the Creator that matters in dissemination?
R. Yes, that is what we call our corrected desire, but the purpose is that by that desire, we reach identification, a degree of the Creator to adhesion with Him and then we can raise ourselves to His degree, we become like Him.
42. S. (02:10:23) Sometimes it feels like I don't have power to go even one step forward, it seems like I am cursed, left to die, what is the right deficiency for connection?
R. The fact that you feel that you don't want anything, that you just want to die is the right feeling and it is a good feeling. It is true and it also gives you an understanding of what your real state in the system is, that if you don't have the right deficiency, the right tendency you are really nothing and that is what you feel. You also have to feel that, afterwards we still need to reach other states and be connected to them, from combining these different states we start discovering the advantage of the light from the darkness, what more and less of importance until we determine that there is no more important state than our thought about the Creator, our tendency to the Creator, to be like Him as much as possible which is the most exalted and correct thing.
43. S. (02:12:47) It is written in the text that Abraham mentions the name of the Creator and created a big community, how can we disseminate the name of the Creator to increase our community?
R. That is under the condition that people feel despair, that they have a deficiency. Without a deficiency you have nobody to come to and then they will have a great deficiency. It was a big problem in Babylon and Abraham explained to them in order to reach a good state they can only get to it if they connect. When they connect, they not only get a good life on a corporeal level but also on a spiritual level and whoever wants to learn how to do that, so he invited them to enter his course, his gathering and then we can learn together how to do it, how to reach the most exalted possible state, that we reveal the Creator by connecting to Him. There has to be the right time, the right teacher and we will succeed. According to all of the signs we are in the right time, we will try.
S. You said we don't need to wait for the most critical moment for humanity and we should prepare the way, the road so they can connect and approach us. Is what we are doing right now preparing the ground so that when the critical states come to humanity and that we will already be able to come in with the name of the Creator?
R. Yes, every day, every penny accumulates to a great sum as we are building the foundation for more and more people in the world, that they will start demanding and understanding and desiring for knowing the system, for knowing the Creator of course. It works in a gradual way with everybody.
44. S. (02:16:33) What is that foreign thing that spoils the bundle?
R. Our ego, what other foreign things do we have there's no other reason than that.
45. S. (02:16:59) What does it mean to want to bestow contentment upon the Creator, what is the inner meaning of this?
R. That I, with all of my forces and thoughts and desires to cause Him good.
46. S. (02:17:20) We are in a stage where we feel all the articles that we read in our hearts, we know who to ask, what to ask and when to ask and we do this as a group according to this system of ascent and descent and we hold one another up before the Creator at all times. Our work is clear and we are grateful to be in this process of correction and grateful to our teacher. We just want the world Kli to know that we are with our friends in this work and working together and correcting the world.
R. We feel you and we want to feel you even deeper inside and our heart and for certain we will succeed. We are really concerned that you will always be between us. Thank you.
47. S. (02:18:28) We have been talking a lot about the different ways of disseminating and we know that by example it is going to be the greatest way to disseminate, what is this great example that is going to really grab the public?
R. I don't know, how can we give an example to the public, through the internet, through the TV, and what example can we give that we are connected, who knows the connection? Let's say we have a group of Latin 6 and they are connected in heart and soul, who can know that they are connected in heart and soul? This is the problem that as much as we publish these things it is only towards a person attaining. Whoever comes close and feels that he has the right vessels what is happening to a person or in the group, but whoever is not in this he can't see it, he doesn't have eyes to see what is happening between them. It is our problem to disseminate.
S. So we just need to disseminate and the example will come?
R. Yes, we just have to keep disseminating.
Excerpt 13 (02:20:41) Twice
48. R. (02:22:56) The desire to receive which is in each and every one and that is actually all of man. We don't take our flesh into consideration, that it belongs to anything so this desire to receive is what prevents the upper light from shining in him. To the extent that we refine it, to that extent we feel the general soul of how it feels us more and more. This is all what is happening until we, by this, become Adam HaRishon.
49. S. (02:23:44) How can we raise to the Creator the deficiencies that we feel from the suffering of the external world if all we talked about in the 10, is the connection between us?
R. It doesn't matter as you are incorporated with the outside world, you belong to humanity and you don't need to make great efforts to be incorporated with the suffering of the world. A few minutes a day as Rabash would do is enough and then he would listen to the news or to read a few lines about what was happening and you already understand the state that the world is in. You hear it whether you like it or not through reactions of the Ministry of Health about the pandemic or the finance ministry, the treasury. You see that the world is deteriorating quickly and ahead of us is nothing good in the way that the world expects it to be because we need to come to the end of correction and accordingly the Creator will arrange for us these external conditions so we need to think only about how we bring to the world the method of correction that is suitable for them. That they will be incorporated with us and how we ourselves absorb from the world all the suffering that there is in them so as to raise a prayer out of the suffering to the Creator and that the Creator will tend to all of us, to us and to the world as one part as the GE and AHP of the common soul. Because they are basically one part of the same created being that the Creator created, he will tend to it, correct it and fill it. Making this happen is our work.
50. S. (02:26:42) Can the sparks of the soul be understood as the points in the heart?
R. No, the point in the heart is the essential desire in a person where his relation towards the Creator is revealed. Except for that there are a lot of points in the heart where a person feels his friends and as much as he comes closer to them, feeling them, more in an accented way and he tries to connect them to one point and to combine the one point which is the hearts of all the friends. To the point where the Creator is and then it will be the Creator and the friend in a person's heart in one place. That is what we need in our depiction, each one to try and depict and then we advance onward. We actually have kind of finished this and we will continue tomorrow as we have to go through this and we still have a whole complete order of excerpts that are being prepared. I am very happy with it as we have no other books in Kabbalah all that explain things in such a precise manner.
51. S. (02:29:12) You answered a friend before, that the Creator answers a person immediately. So, the question is, does a person here and decipher the answer, how do we hear the answer correctly?
R. Open your heart towards the friends, to the extent that you open the heart towards the friends you will hear what the Creator is telling you as you don't have an open or closed heart towards the Creator only to the extent that you do this towards the society.
