Part 3
“I to my Beloved, and my Beloved to me” - Selected Excerpts from the Sources
Excerpt 7 (02-2:04) twice It is written, “I am my Beloved and His Desire is for me…”
Excerpt 8 (02:12-04:16) “To Him Who Knows the Mysteries…”
Excerpt 9 (04:24-05:43) “When One Comes to a State…”
53. S. (05:53) This is not clear to me, a discernment of having nothing. Gladly, every word becomes Keter which is a vessel of bestowal and the purist Kli. What does it mean having nothing, to feel nothing?
R. That the desire receives what it wants but that a person is above his desire so he is delighted that he is in this state this is called Delighted in Mercy.
S. How can one be in a state of nothing and be glad?
R. Request to the Creator to give this to you.
S. What do you mean happiness, gladness?
R. Because he is above the desire to receive requests more and more and doesn't give him and in this, he feels himself closer to the Creator and that fills him with joy.
S. This leads me to be in the quality of bestowal?
R. From here on, yes.
S. What is the essence of the action in the ten with all of these definitions? What should we do in the 10 according to what he says?
R. That each one will raise the importance of bestowal over reception and it is better to remain empty and not receive rather than to receive and that reception distances us from the Creator.
S. To let go of everything?
R. Well let's say, but in the group also because I am obligated in my mutual guarantee with the others, that I must perform this otherwise I am bringing down everyone.
S. He's not on this path, not doing this, what should we do with him?
R. He wants it to be such, he wants to fulfill what is for the benefit of the group and this for him, is the most important thing, not with respect to himself that he checks things, rather only towards the state of the group.
Excerpt 10 (08:28-08:49) “It is impossible to obtain disclosure…”
54. R. If we don't reach a state like this, that for us the concealment or revelation not mattering which, the main thing is that if by this I am performing corrections in the group and bestowing contentment to the Creator, that for me is what is important, that is what determines what I will do. Not am I full or am I empty; do I understand and so forth.
Reader continues ....” It means one should be as glad…”
55. S. (10:07) We spoke with the friends and I don't object to them, enjoying and being aimed to the Creator in bestowal, but it turns out that the creator doesn't want me to enjoy my will to receive but to only be aimed to Him. Why is there such a conflict, is it because we are not connected?
R…. To enjoy within the vessels of reception, meaning on the intention to receive that is opposite from the Creator and that you are cutting yourself off from life and only in living only in this world, which is an illusion, it just seems to us, “We were as Dreamers” as the quote is written. We are in like some foggy dream but rather if you do actions with the intent to bestow you exit the framework of this world into spirituality to a world which is eternal, whole and you are already in truth, in a true state. Rather here you are like in a dream, going here or going there but it is all in a dream. That is how your life is projected.
Excerpt 11 (11:57-13:50) “First thing in the morning when he rises from his sleep…”
56. S. There is always going to be concealment and then revelation of the face and then concealment again and then revelation of the face and concealment again in my 10. Someone will always be crying and someone will always be laughing?
R. Of course we are tied to one another and we help one another and thus, even though you don't aim for the correction of the world but you are in this entire system in as much as you advance, you advance all of reality. This is one thing and secondly, we activate ourselves and make an effort to do such in the 10. The 10 is the smallest circle that can be in reality and when we are made in many such circles and from many of these circles, we want to expand and then from this many circles we want to make into one, as if one circle. We remain in the tens and we expand ourselves into larger circles. And this we have seemingly returned to the world that was before the restrictions and the lines and to the world of truth, as much as in this we are closer to the Creator because the Creator is what it is outside the circles. This is how we correct ourselves.
57. S. (15:51) What does the Creator want to show us if we feel comfortable in a certain state, if we agree to stay in it?
R. That is what the Creator wants, that we will feel comfortable and good and nice in each and every state because every state comes from him.
58. S. (16:27) What does it mean to be adhered to the Creator in truth?
R. If I connect with the friends truly in one heart and there are no restrictions on everything, we check between us that there are no limitations in the connection between us and then we attain the Creator in the whole manner.
59. S. (17:07) A friend is asking from the 10 what is an idle thought?
R. About oneself, all thoughts about others are good thoughts. They are the commandants, all thoughts about oneself are a transgression.
60. S. (17:47) The first action is to pour out the heart to the Creator's so we are saying that a prayer should be scrutinized and common?
R. First of all pours everything that is in your heart.
S. But that is about me, only about myself?
R. So from that understand where you are, that is also necessary, it will be clear to you that you are thinking only about yourself and with that you get up but don't despair as from this moment ask of the Creator to help you to disconnect you from these thoughts about yourself, otherwise how are you going to ask him to save you for help.
S. The order of actions is to first ask about myself and then start the scrutiny of the work?
R. Without you checking yourself who you are today right now, how are you going to reach the start of your work?
61. S. (19:06) After the Congress what should we try to do in our free time, or in the 10’s meeting? Today's lesson, or what should we read from the Congress?
R. The morning lesson, what we are learning as we need to learn on a daily basis as much as possible between you to talk about it as much as possible and what we have gone through in the Congress is once in a while to go over it although we will repeat it as this is material that will guide us all the time.
