1. Rav’s Introduction: Actually we have no more than this work then to crown the king over us as much as we will be able to elevate the Creator above us, so we are able to attach ourselves to Him. If he is higher than we rise to Him, if he is higher than we rise to Him. And in this way we can rise up to the height of all of our actions that he gave us the opportunity to perform 620 such operations which rise higher and higher, so let's try to keep this all the time. Actually this is the most important inclination, the only one you might say that we need to have between us, how do we do it, through an effort in connection. The more we exert in the connection between us the more we can resemble the Creator and adhere to Him, and in order to rise higher we need to exert even more, we need to adhere between us and then we adhere to the Creator, meaning we rise to Him and adhere to Him. And in this way onward.

Reading item #ten (01:46) “There is only one way to try..”

2. R. (03:58) Actually we don't need more than that the greatness and importance of the Creator. If we receive these discernments the greatness and importance during the study during our actions are connections between us, then the feeling of the greatness and importance of the Creator occupies us and it fills us, it draws us and pulls us to all the correct things, ultimately mostly to connection and then we attain the purpose of life and creation.

3. S. (04:34) What is the sensation of the greatness of the Creator exactly?

R. To feel the importance of the Creator as it is written to feel that He fills everything, realizes everything, and organizes everything and changes everything and He is the king, and He is the thought, and He is the operation, and He is everything and There Is None Else Besides Him. Simply in all of the things that we can see that something exists it is the Creator that something is done it is by the Creator. Meaning in every thought and desire in every action exists only this one force, the Creator and this is why it is considered that he fills the world.

S. It's also said here that we need to ask and give the glory of the Lord to your people?

R. All of us and all the created beings will feel His importance, His greatness, His uniqueness, this is what is important for us.

4. S. (06:10) What is the state that we feel the multitude of the greatness of the Creator in the king's multitude?

R. This is a state that we should reach a state where the Creator begins to be revealed in our vessels according to the equivalence of our vessels and Him. This is the state where we begin to get closer to the Creator and to feel that He is doing this, and He is planning that and He is executing and He is doing everything and we are just the results of everything that He wants to do on us. For the better and for the worse and for each and everything, There Is None Else Besides Him.

S. We can attain the state together in the ten?

R. Of course this is what we need to attain. The Creator this is how He is revealed to us, and He needs an area in which to be revealed so that there will be thoughts and desires that are for and against, so that there will be as if they are weaved in a cloth, like knitted, incorporated together even though they are opposites. This is considered that we connect as much as we can even though we are all different, very different from each other but as much as we nevertheless want to be connected then we create such a network of connection between us and in this network of connection between us, we build a place where we can discover Him. Specifically because we are contradictory and disconnected and we hate and reject each other and upon that we build the connections between us up to love. Then the gap between these and those, this establishes within us qualities that are opposite but that are willing to unite together in order to be similar to The Creator. And then we discover Him.

5. S. (09:32) What does it mean that we raise the Shechina from the dust in the ten?

R. That we build a network in which we can discover the Creator and this network is entirely made of qualities, actions, desires, and intentions that are different. However they all connect regardless, they exist in a mutual rejection and repulsion, but they nevertheless connect in order to discover the Creator in order to give Him contentment.

6. S. (10:19) You mentioned that the Creator fills the whole world and we are all His actions and results, so how do you hold on to this on a constant basis that you feel the greatness of the Creator in your bones?

R. This is what I said now, that we try to be connected between us even though we have mutual repulsion between us and the more we will advance between us the more we will reach not only repulsion but hatred, the desire to kill each other even.

S. It’s not understood, how is this connected to the sensation of the greatness of the Creator?

R. The greatness of the Creator is revealed in us because the greatness is revealed in us and we need to discover Him in the gap between the plus in the minus, between rejection and an inclination towards connection and between love and hatred and between all of these things, just like each and everything that we discover we discover it through something in its opposite. And this is why, and this is how we need to build ourselves in advance, even though we are constantly and always in forces of rejection, and we need to realize that we feel all of that in order to rise even more above it. And the more we will overcome them, these forces of rejection towards forces of connection we will become incorporated of these too. The day and the night, darkness and the light, hatred, and love until we will truly begin to become the true vessels for the revelation of the Creator. We need to advance towards that and then we will feel how much this works. Also in our lives, our corporeal lives, we discover everything only according to this formula as the advantage of light out of darkness.

7. S. (12:58) Is the joy that I receive in the morning lesson from incorporation with the friends is that part of the greatness of the Creator?

R. Yes, it is written joy as the result of Good Deeds that you have come a little bit closer to the friends, you're connected with them a little bit more and out of that you have an addition of joy.

8. S. (13:33) The separation is revealed within the heart that I have some distance from the friends and I do some action of connection above this right but it's like a hollow action there's no real sensation behind that. Is that what we mean that I'm replacing the connection above the separation?

R. You need to feel that through this action you're covering the separation.

S. What does it mean to cover the separation, I'm covering with an action I come to the lesson and with the friends?

R. No, coming and being there doesn't mean anything, it doesn't mean you're feeling, where you're feeling separation, you want seemingly to lie on top of it, to lie on top of it and cover it with yourself so that there will be unity.

S. Meaning that this action of trying to connect is also emotional and it also has to be in the heart?

R. Of course all of our actions are only in the emotion because these are actions on the desire either the will to receive or the will to bestow.

S. How do I feel two things at once?

R. One without the other you cannot feel at all, try to feel one without the other and you will see that's impossible.

S. The internal sensation is that separation and I try to cover the sensation above it?

R. Yes this is called love covers all crimes.

S. And this action that we're doing is to assist that?

R. Yes, it's in order to bring us closer to it.

9. S. (15:41) We are reading excerpts here about the greatness of the Creator and prayer, and there's a part of the excerpt that impressed me that he says, don't request the greatness we need to request the faith above reason, so when do we request this and when do we request that? These are seemingly two things?

R. When to ask for the force of faith?

S. Yes, there is an excerpt that I don't want to request the greatness of the Creator I want to request the force to work above reason but if I'm requesting the greatest of the Creator?

R. Ask for the force of love from the Creator, that's it and then you won't be confused, you want to love Him.

S. Okay, that sounds good.

R. Not why, what are the reasons, the force of love because in truth the force of Love requires no reasons.

ten. S. (17:00) I don't know why I'm in all this, everything we see is the Creator so where am I in this area of the ten?

R. Where you feel this is where you are, you are actually a very small point ,a tiny point inside all of the reality that exists and as much as you will connect with the friends then you will occupy a greater area. You will have a feeling of your existence in His world in the Creator's world that is more than just a point and more and more and more depending on how many more souls and how many more friends you are able to connect with. But sometimes when we feel like you, who am I, I am nothing, I do not exist, that also happens. All of these things we also need to go through and feel them.

11. S. (18:25) How to receive from the friends such an impression that we can really reach the greatness of the Creator?

R. this is what we are studying about friends, how to receive an impression through the daily work, that we get up for the lesson and we hear and we study and we want to do and we only learn this. We have nothing else besides what we study in the lessons, only what to connect for and how to connect in order to discover the greatness of the Creator, how do we discover Him. And in which vessels and in which connections between us, this is the whole topic of our study for the time being. I hope in a month or two we will already start something more advanced, but this is what we need to accept, to implement it, to become incorporated with it and to establish it between us.

12. S. (19:53) Why in life when I am told, I do go do some sports, it's healthy and I do this and here every day I'm talking about the greatness of the Creator and it's not penetrating inward, why is it like this?

R. Because you don't see any results from it, there you believe that this is how it is, why? Because everybody thinks this way and so you rely on what the great public thinks, here you don't have the importance of the friends which is sufficient in order for you to obligate you, to engage in the love of friends and the greatness of the Creator. We need more and more to think about it.

13. S. (21:00) Regarding the prayer of the eighteen should we do this in the ten?

R. I don't think so, it will scatter us now in two different directions. this prayer is very broad and occupies all kinds of desires, thoughts, and incidents, no, what we are studying try to delve into that.

14. S. (21:47) Why, when a person wishes to attain the intention to bestow and contentment to the Creator and not at all for His benefit and then the internal light becomes surrounding light why is it like this?

R. this is completely incorrect.

S. Sorry, thank you.

15. S. (22:23) Out of the understanding there needs to be light out of darkness. If there's no sensation of connection when we come here and I need to check myself in something, to awaken some sensation or at least identify that there is separation, that only out of this we can take a step forward to connection or should we not awaken the separation?

R. If a person advances correctly then the left awakens out of itself in order to direct Him to a greater right.

S. If not he hasn't awakened?

R. It's a sign that he's not advancing correctly.

16. S. (23:02) When we raise the prayer in order that the Creator will raise the Torah, what do we need to do in the ten for this to occur?

R. You need to speak more about the greatness of the Creator and in what to do so that he will rule over us.

17. S. (23:49) What's the difference between the greatness of the Creator and the greatness of the friends?

R. The greatness of the friends I need to work on that first of all. If I achieve the greatness of the friends to some extent then out of that I need to work on the greatness of the Creator. And to reach a state where the greatness of the friends and the greatest of the Creator will be equal and constantly rising in my eyes, in my sensation.

18. S. (24:32) We are the result of the actions of the Creator, our actions for connection with the Creator is what the Creator is doing with us?

R. Again, I didn't understand.

S. We are the result of the actions of the Creator. Is the intention for the connection between us or what the Creator does with us?

R. I nevertheless didn’t understand, let’s skip this question.

19. S. (25:00) How to be impressed from the friends in the ten in order to reach the greatness of the Creator?

R. To the extent that I am impressed by the society of the group I will be able to be impressed by the greatness of the Creator to get closer to the greatness of the Creator.

20. S. (25:23) To be in connection with your friend and to feel Him together with you, is that how we are trying to find the correct frequency like a radio?

R. Let's say so. I am not quite happy with these questions. They are not scrutinized enough.

21. S. (25:52) A few days ago you explained that there is no greatness of the light without greatness of the vessel and then you said that there is no greatness of the Creator without greatness of the friends, so for us greatness of the Creator is fulfillment of the vessel?

R. Yes certainly it is true. If I don't have a vessel which is called the greatness of the friends I won't be able to receive the greatness, to discover the greatness of the Creator. The greatness of the Creator is the light, and the greatness of the friends is the vessel.

22. S. (26:38) It appears that there are two labors, one is to enter the lesson with the friends and receive greatness of the Creator or are we supposed to make an effort the rest of the time for greatness of the Creator?

R. I don’t think it depends on whether I have friends next to me or not, we should already be in a constant state that we are connected and once in a while we check ourselves. Is it possible to unite the connection between us even more and more and it doesn't depend on which state we are in or what distance we have between us. Until the corporeal distance will not affect us but only the spiritual nearing or distancing will affect us, and this is how each time we will check ourselves and will be concerned about how to always all of us be connected.

23. S. (27:58) Maybe to expand a bit more in or between the greatness of the friends and greatness of the Creator. Let's say I don't see greatness of the friends, even the opposite, is this a place where I need assistance of the Creator, is this also a type of greatness of the Creator?

R. Yes, if you turn to Him that He will help you in something then you already recognize His greatness.

S. Let's say then I do see the greatness of the friends and can be impressed and then naturally here there's greatness of the Creator?

R. Why, naturally.

S. Because that's how I feel. If I see greatness of the friends I'm seeing the greatness of the connection between us, then naturally there is a type of gratitude that I'm with the friends on the path?

S. Let's say so even though it doesn't have to be this way, okay.

S. The question is maybe you can expand here on the connection between the greatness of the friends and the greatness of the Creator, why is this a vessel and this light?

R. If I want to reach the greatness of the Creator then I have no vessel, no means to begin to discover His greatness but only the greatness of the friends.

S. Why?

R. In which vessel will I discover the greatness of the Creator or the Creator in general if not in my connection with the friends, if not in the connection of the friends.

S. In this I am lacking?

R. The fact that you're lacking it means nothing. The fact that you lack something is just a will to receive.

S. I'm trying to scrutinize where exactly is the connection between the greatness of the friends and the greatness of the Creator. I cannot seem to grasp it?

R. The greatness of the friends you can check that in the football field. The greatness of our friends, you need to check that towards the goal first of all. Why do they need to be connected, what is the greatness of the connection, what is it they want to achieve in the connection between them? And then according to that you measure the greatness of the group.

24. S. (30:38) Why do we need to pray that He shall remove His concealment from us?

R. The concealment of His greatness and not of Himself of His greatness. We want the greatness of the Creator will constantly grow in my eyes.

S. Okay but I'm supposed to work on this myself, if I am asking Him to do the work here?

R. Yes I'm asking, without that He will not do it. The Creator does not do anything without us awakening Him.

S. But if He removes the concealment where is the work?

R. He will remove the concealment of Himself a little bit and show us a little bit of His greatness and then according to our recognition of His greatness we will be able to engage more in actions of bestowal and connection.

25. S. (31:45) Why is the greatness of the Creator and why does He not reach us and give us confidence and why does it obligate work?

R. I wouldn't say that it's only that way, but the fact that it pushes you to work it's good, meaning the greatness of the Creator shows you that you have more to do in the bestowal. That’s excellent.

S. Let's say you look at the whole world, the greatness of the Creator, it's like a type of confidence. It's a big Creator, I'm secure?

R. But it's not the same Creator.

S. For us it is something more obligatory?

R. It's not the same Creator, what we have and what they have. For us, the Creator who fills the whole of reality, encompasses the whole of reality. He encompasses each and every one of us, He demands from us a special kind of effort, actions, and results. And for them it's something that exists above everyone, and they need to bow down before Him. And we don't, we turn to Him and we demand.

S. How do we not fall to that Creator?

R. By us constantly holding on to the goal that we need to be connected and in our connection be similar to Him. We have a goal; we are working and they are bowing only. They seemingly have some kind of an agreement with the Creator, we will do this and that and you will do good to us in this way and that way. And in all the different Nations and countries and religions they seemingly have an agreement with a Creator and there are people who have this connection between all the different people and link them with the Creator. They are saints and we do not have saints; we don't have any managers or anything except that each and every one has to learn how he must be close to the Creator, serving Him, correcting himself, and getting closer to Him and getting connected with Him. This means that we don't make of the Creator's some saint that we bow before only, but rather we make Him great, not holy, and maybe it's better to say great in order to resemble Him.

S. What's our agreement with Him?

R. That He will help us in that so that we will resemble Him.

S. And then in return we're willing to give everything for connection?

R. Yes we are willing to do everything in the connection between us in order to discover Him and by this to give Him contentment. Where the contentment that we establish for Him is for us like a great fortune, this for us is the pleasure and the gift in the greatest reward. Meaning it's all in order to bestow which is unlike in order to receive whichever way you try to turn it; this is the difference.

26. S. (36:05) You spoke about this now that we feel it's like we're giving Him something out of plastic and he is giving us diamonds?

R. I didn't say that.

S. No but you said that we don't know so how does he describe here?

R. Don't spin my words. If you want to ask, go ahead, and use your words otherwise I will never let you ask and you are just harming everyone.

S. I meant it's like we're giving a pacifier and getting something much greater.

R. Okay.

27. S. (37:02) Just to continue, to make the Creator, there are those who make the Creator holy and that gives them an impression. What are we doing compared to the rest?

R. What do you mean who are the rest, everyone else?

S. You said about others that they have this agreement with the Creator that we will do our part and you'll give us what we want, and that's all the intention to receive. I want to scrutinize the sensation of the greatness of the Creator. What are we supposed to feel compared to what they feel that they hold the Creator in their pocket?

R. Why do you care about those who have the Creator in their pocket?

S. You have this impression right now, everyone's celebrating the holiday and they feel that they're tied to something and someone in confidence and strength. By us it's always everything seems to disappear, one time you have the Creator and then you don't, you have the friends and then you don't?

R. In order for us to elevate them each and every time higher and higher the friends and the Creator.

S. And the connection with the Creator and the friends?

R. Yes, this is why it's always fluctuating and disappearing, you have it in one moment and then it disappears again, this is how it needs to be. In order for you to hold yourself in the group and the teacher and the Creator ultimately and none of these things will be certain but rather you'll always between the Heaven and the Earth. And through that specifically you advance, and all these conditions you're given them in order for you to develop faith above reason.

28. S. (39:18) Is it true that for us the greatness of the Creator is the greatness of the quality of bestowal, love, and connection? Is this exactly what we want and no religion wants that like you said. This is actually our agreement?

R. Correct.

29. S. (39:55) It is written that we can discover His greatness according to how we assume His greatness that's on one hand. On the other hand you say that His greatness is determined according to the greatness of the friends. I feel that there is a mutual relation between the greatness of the friends and the greatness of the Creator on both sides meaning the greatness of the Creator also elevates the greatness of the friends. How does this mechanism work?

R. I don't know how to explain this, I think you simply need to work on love of friends and greatness of the friends and out of this you will surely reach greatness of the Creator and love of the Creator. You need to invest more in this.

S. But sometimes I feel that when the greatness of the Creator grows and then greatness of the friends also grows?

R. Correct, they are tied to one another but you cannot reach greatness of the Creator directly. Through love of friends, yes, and from us the love of created beings to love of the Creator.

30. S. (41:10) It is written here in all the prayers that we pray, it should be to raise the Shechina from the dust so is there a meaning in this way to raise the Shechina from the dust?

R. He writes that all the prayers are to raise Shechina from the dust.

S. Maybe we need to ask for it through?

R. You cannot because it is written.

Reading excerpt #11 (41:50) “We should know that we were given love..” twice

31. R. (44:22) Meaning that if a person has a tendency to love the Creator to get closer to the Creator, he needs first of all to understand that before everything he needs to arrange his relation with the friends. As unpleasant as it may be as much as it may not draw him, it's unimportant as it may seem in his eyes, he specifically needs to go towards this and this is a very big problem. But it is what arranges us and truly revolves us from corporeality to spirituality. In spirituality we are directed to the Creator and we're willing to pray and do everything and truly bow before Him, that is in corporeality. But in spirituality the Kabbalists demand of us, if you want to advance towards spirituality, then first it’s love of the created beings.

For us it is love of friends and only out of that and after this, you will be able to reach the correct attitude towards the Creator only, only in this manner and only in this order. That's what the teacher writes here, ‘We should know that we were given the matter of Love of friends is to learn from this how to avoid blemishing the king's honor not blemish the king's glory. In other words, unless a person has no other desire except to give contentment to the king to the Creator he will certainly blemish the king's honor which is called passing the Kedusha, Holiness to the external ones.’ How the external ones if I want to reach the Creator, so he continues ‘For this reason we must not underestimate the importance of the work in love of friends, for by that he will learn, again for this reason we must not underestimate the importance in the work of Love of friends for by that and only by that, a person will learn how to exit self-love and enter the path of Love of others and when he completes the work of Love of friends then he will be able to be rewarded with love of the Creator.’

That's the work. And many years a person stands in this place and doesn't begin because he cannot get closer to the Friends and this is the greatest obstacle in our spiritual work. And thus a thousand enter a room and one exits to the light. Few friends remain after many come, but this specific condition is that first we need to reach love of friends and then love of the Creator. This condition few pass through this.

32. S. (47:55) What does it mean to determine in the work that the love of friends in the ten as it says at the end, complete the work of love the friends?

R. We cannot complete it whether it begins to be revealed in the greatness of the Creator that it is revealed and all of the friends. Then ultimately we complete the work and love friends also with the work of the Creator and we are all incorporated, that is called Israel the light and the Creator are one. That we are all connecting to the end of correction.

33. S. (48:47) What do we have to do in order to reach love of friends?

R. To annul towards them first of all and read the articles of Rabash on love our friends.

S. To annul before them, what does that mean?

R. It is written there.

34. S. (49:39) To begin with I'm supposed to aim my intention so that in the study with the friends I should give contentment to the Creator or does that come later?

R. Try to begin with that everything that you do for the friends in this you want to cause pleasure for the Creator. It's like children who are playing nicely together so that mother will enjoy from this.

35. S. (50:32) Completing the matter of the work in the love of friends, is this in a state of attaining the Creator? Is this the same state if I understood it correctly?

R. Yes, almost.

S. What is the difference?

R. Will learn more.

36. S. (51:02) When a person receives a ten there is a promise of the Creator here and that the person will reach the love of the Creator, it's like a contract, a guarantee, a promise?

R. If he accepts the ten like himself then through this he reaches love of the Creator.

S. I'm asking this because there are many people who listen to us and they know us and they feel that there is truth here but they don't believe it's possible what we are doing?

R. That's their own personal matter, that's what's written.

S. Can we say such a thing that if you receive a ten then you're entering a contract to the Creator?

R. Correct, a contract with the Creator is called the entire system of creation, that we begin to become familiar with it and this is how it works. Thus it's written from love of the created beings to love the Creator.

S. And we can tell people about it that there is such a thing?

R. Of course this is the law that is what's written.

37. S. (52:25) In practice the ten is built out of ten friends, I have nine more friends I have loved one more, I love the other less. Should I focus on each time on someone, a different person to send a different friend in order to elevate my love to him and command what Rabash recommends towards love of friends?

R. Read what Rabash writes and make an effort to fulfill it. He writes a lot about this.

38. S. (53:08) You now talked about the fact that a thousand enter the room and only one goes out to The King's Palace. In the past you gave a different explanation that a thousand thoughts enter and only one intention is rewarded with reaching the Creator. How do I cleanse all of the dirty thoughts so that we will remain the only with the pure clean intention and reach the Creator?

R. Only through the connection with the friends, don't think about all these things, try to invest yourself in connection with the friends and everything will work out.

39. S. (54:04) What does it mean to blemish the king's honor if we only want to bestow contentment to the Creator, to the king?

R. That is called, there are such thoughts and desires that you are not directing to bestow contentment to the Creator in them and that's called you are blemishing His glory, His honor.

40. S. (54:48) Since Rosh Hashanah something happened that I feel that all my connections are broken to pieces I am shattered, how can I recover myself?

R. Why are you thinking of yourself? Broken, broken, why do you care that you're broken? Surely in each state that you're in, the Creator arranged it for you. From what state you're in don't think about yourself that you are broken. Think about how from this state that the Creator arranged for you, you can rise to give Him contentment. What can you do and do something good for the Creator.

S. But I don't feel the friends, I have to feel them and I have to reveal my connection?

R. Ask the Creator to give you the ability to feel the friends to be connected with them, to be strengthened by them in connection, to warm up together with them and then out of everyone, begin raising your head to the Creator to Him to ask and demand.

41. S. (56:55) I make the friend greater and I annul to Him and I depict to myself that the Creator stands behind him and there's a connection between us, is this the right approach or should it be different?

R. Correct, that is also a correct approach.

42. S. (57:31) Can we say that this law from the love of people to the love of the Creator, it's the realization of the equivalence of form of the law of equivalence of form?

R. Yes, yes.

43. S. (57:53) I assume that no one would say that he hates the friends so what if a person determines he's in love with the friends and he doesn't delude himself?

R. According to his sensation, there's nothing you can do here, it's only a matter of sensation. As much as we understand what is this called, connection, distance, the sensation of hate and love and accordingly we make a determination. Later on we'll have more precise measurements when we enter spirituality, restrictions, screens, reflected light, coupling of beating and so on. Then upon these measures of the will to receive and the will to bestow we will be able to see ourselves where we are, but in the meantime now, no.

S. In this state I only feel the oppositeness and then one time I feel rejection and overcome it and I feel the closeness?

R. Yes, so in the meantime we have rejection and nearness and later on it will become more and more precise. There will be gradations in measures, in stages both in this and that, discernments and scrutinies.

44. S. (59:32) We learn that the greatness of the Creator makes us want to resemble Him and resemble His quality. Is He also the same with the greatness of the Friends?

R. Of course if the friend is great you will want to resemble Him, that happens to us naturally.

S. If he is great in something, I love it, I'm happy that it helps him to come closer to the purpose of creation?

R. And you also want to be like him naturally you're drawn to him.

S. Can we say that this is a measurement for the right work if you want to be like Him, it's a sign in the right direction?

R. Yes, yes, yes, of course. That's also how a mother tells a child, look at that boy, what a good boy he is, how he's learning and so on, try to be like him. That's how we were taught.

45. S. (01:00:36) How to feel the ten like myself?

R. The main thing is annulment of the self. The main thing is annulment of self.

Reading Excerpt #12 (01:01:01) “In The Multitude of People is the King’s Glory...”

46. S. (01:02:47) After we did the work in the love of friends, what is our work opposite of the Creator?

R. All the things that we do towards the friends as correction of the vessel and as much as the vessel will be corrected, ready for fulfillment. Because we know we need to turn to the Creator for fulfillment and to make from the side of the vessel coupling of beating in order to fill the Kli and the glory of the Creator the greatness of the Creator that the Shechinah calls for it and dwells in the Kli, that it should fill it. After the love of friends the connection between us of the formation of the Kli we need to reach the coupling of beating with the Creator.

S. How do we reach coupling with striking with the Creator?

R. Wait, we have not yet attained the Kli, as we're learning the Wisdom of Kabbalah, then actually will be learning the Wisdom of Kabbalah and we will see how much it teaches us spiritual actions one after the other. Not like now we're learning and we don't know what it's talking about, that's why I'm not running forward so much with this study. First we should have at least some sensation, some understanding, some small understanding of what it needs to bring us. It's like a child who looks at a car, so he identifies with it, he hears the engine, this is the driver's cabin, this is something else, this is some box that you can put sand in let's say, and the vehicle can transport it when you travel. He should have a basic understanding of the different parts of and then later on we'll be able to learn the Wisdom of Kabbalah in a practical manner, and applicable manner.

S. Does it become personal, individual work?

R. Everything is from the group and even more, the groups begin to connect as a nation and then the whole world, we're in the last generation.

47. S. (01:05:41) It says we have to produce a stronger atmosphere of the Creator and then each person's body feels that everything he wishes to do for holiness will be for him a great fortune. What is this if the body is not corrected?

R. It changes because otherwise how would he feel?

48. S. (01:06:26) It is written that the greater the importance of the Creator is in his eyes and he can walk all day in gladness and joy. Is that an inner gladness or is it felt on the outside?

R. No, externally the world has no vessels in which to feel His gladness, it's His external gladness because he has vessels for this gladness for this spirituality in which the light clothes in these vessels.

Reading Excerpt # 13 (01:07:12) “All Our Gain is We Are Rewarded With...” Twice

R. (01:12:17) Try to have a workshop on this and get questions.

49. S. (01:17:51) Lately for us in our ten we've been focusing on the conversation around opportunities to raise the greatness of the Creator. Opportunities to work and bestowal and here in the article, it would seem to say that one's reward is that he gets more opportunities. Is that correct what we're seeing here, more opportunities to bestow, more work?

R. Yes, to the extent a person advances more along the path or the ladder then he has more opportunities because his vessel becomes more included with the rest of the vessels around him and by that he grows. We don't grow with our own forces but we grow through our connections with everyone, with everyone. Until we reach the degree of Adam HaRishon, those are the degrees of our growth. We can see the same in the growth of a person, as he grows up the new cells accumulate, new connections between the cells and then other connections and then he begins to absorb things from the outside and then also from himself and then he starts adding and so on. It's all measured according to the growth of connections, to the extent that he has many forms of connection with all of the surroundings accordingly he's considered grown. That's how it is in spirituality until he will fulfill all of reality with his connections and that is considered that he is returned to the quantity of Adam HaRishon, he himself, and it's the same with others until we eventually reach connection.

S. In addition to that, there's a fear that opportunities are going to be missed every moment. Opportunities being presented by the Creator to act in bestowal and to show more love of friends, to bring greater confidence to the group and those opportunities get missed. The net that we have, that we want to catch, has holes in it and has gaps in it. How can this fear be described as something we can do to ensure within the group that we won't miss these opportunities?

R. That is why we learn that we first need to reach the ten and from the ten connections with other tens and from other tens to thousands and so on, to that extent we need to grow. Our force will always be not to what extent each one of us is strong, but to the extent that the connections we have between one and the others, just like in computers. The computer cell is a cell but to the extent that it can connect to the other cells and at what pace, at what speed it can connect with them, that is actually the entire quality of this machine. That's why we need to measure ourselves in the way of the cells of Adam HaRishon. All in all He is the microprocessor, and we are the cells in it.

50. S. (01:23:08) Continuing the workshop we did, I wrote down a question: what is the measure of the greatness of the friends, what should it be in me so that I'll have sufficient greatness of the goal?

R. That cannot be the greatness of the Creator that is higher than the greatness of the friends. The greatness of the Creator is the light and the greatest of friends is the Kli and the light cannot be revealed beyond the intensity of the Kli. That's why it all depends on the greatness of the friends, gradually we comprehend this, agree to it, and are even prepared to go with this as much as possible and to want to ask and demand from the Creator to give us the recognition of His greatness. That is the given parameter through which we are entirely dependent on everything. It's like you buy some device so you look at some of its specs or frequencies, Etc., so for us the essence of society, the quality of society is to the extent they are connected.

S. In the excerpt we read it is important for me to have a certain form of a practical measure of how much I am bestowing to the Creator. Can we measure that?

R. Try and measure that with the friends we just spoke about it. To the extent that you can give and receive to the friends, to that extent you can be in contact with the Creator.

51. S. (01:25:36) In the opening of the excerpt it is written that all reward is that we’ve received from serving the Creator. What is the benefit here exactly, what’s the reward because the greatness of the Creator it's something that's unclear to me how to serve Him only the kabbalists know and teach we are just learning it, therefore, how to differentiate for myself that it's really worthwhile to serve the Creator and that we’ve truly merited doing so.

R. For the time being we can’t understand what the purpose of creation is. We can say that it’s written that we need to reach the degree of the Creator, that the sons have returned until the Creator, to know the Creator, to adhere to Him, et cetera, but these things we don't feel them, and just to speak ,it doesn't really give us any feeling, but most important is that we are people of feeling so it's difficult for us to say what is really the purpose of creation but it can be said in words that the purpose of creation is to reveal the Creator, to attain Him, to adhere to the Creator, to reach His state. That we are together as a Kli reaching a state that the light penetrates us and we enable it to enter us and our Kli becomes similar to the light, just like the light works in us acts in us accordingly the Kli receives the light and gives it to Him and that is considered, until the Creator your God, that is a state we that reach that is the end of correction. What happens after that for the time being we are not learning about that just to say that by that we correct ourselves to the degree of the Creator and what happens beyond that is it is said that there is something, that we don’t have any clear knowledge of this because we don’t have the vessels, there are the new vessels.

52 S. (01:28:23) How can I know that I prepared my vessel for the Creator?::

R. According to the extent of connection with Him.

53. S. (01:28:48)) How can I nullify before this greatness and the love of the friends without receiving any pleasure for myself?

R. Ask for corrections, how to be in order to bestow, that the Creator or the friends whoever you intend for will be so great in their eyes that even you giving to them will be revealed as receiving because if you give a gift to someone that you love then you have fear, will they accept this gift from me or not, and when you give and they do accept the gift then you're very, very happy and it’s as if you received something, so it all depends to the extent that we appreciate the greatness of the Creator in our eyes, in your eyes.

54. S. (01:30:14) I think I have an identical question to Michael's. The question is what is the pleasure from a vessel of bestowal, what is the feeling of that pleasure?

R. I'm very sorry my friend but I can't explain to you what pleasure is, I can't. It has to be your pleasure and my pleasure which are similar so that we'll be able to explain to one another what that pleasure is. We can't pass on one form of pleasure to another.

S. Okay so I think that through the work I’ll be able to understand this by continuing on this way.

R. Yes, yes, otherwise no. If we would feel these things then we would be able to speak of this but if one doesn’t feel this it won't matter that the other does, he can't pass on to Him this sense, that's clear? Good.

S. I'm asking forgiveness because I'm confusing it with corporeal pleasure.

R. Also in corporeal pleasures we can't pass on to the other, explain to me what is macaroni with tomatoes, I’ve never had that, and I'm told it’s something wonderful.

55. S. (01:32:30) It's written here that we receive all our pleasures and they’re like with animals, so we can also say that a cat and a dog receive the same pleasures from life like a person although maybe higher or do we have something somehow we can compare to resemble.

R. Something that is greater than us no because we accept all of the pleasures in our will to receive in order to receive, and that is why still, vegetative animate, speaking, it doesn't matter. They are all as animals receiving pleasures within themselves and enjoying that.

S. But I receive more pleasure from life than an animal.

R. That only means that you are a bigger animal than he is, that you’re worse than him, that you're more distant from the Creator.

S. So it turns out that the pleasure that we want to receive from spirituality is from a different direction?

R. That is right and in order to now reach spiritual pleasures we need to prepare ourselves for nothing and go in the opposite direction to give and to receive pleasure from giving. Then we will have the opportunity to receive in order to bestow.

56. S. (01:34:35) After twenty years of studying I still don't understand what connection is.

R. Connect once and you won't need to study for 20 years then you'll understand from doing it.

S. So let's say I come to the morning lesson and preparation and we're four people. Until the end of the lesson we come to be ten. What brings more contentment to the Creator that we will be ten from the beginning or that we will be three or four and we will collect them along the way?

R. It's clear that if we all start then there is greater intensity for the lesson, for the desires, for your prayers, it all adds up in the king's glory is in the multitude of the people.

57. S. (01:35:50) Why is it so difficult to understand that in bestowal we attain greater pleasure than receiving?

R. Because by bestowing we are working with an infinite vessel, infinite, a vessel of the entire universe because I want to bestow and it goes through me to the entire universe, however in order to receive I can only use my own Kli, my own vessel and therefore I can only receive the pleasures of this world which are small, temporary, and fleeting, ending, and eventually I die, the vessel is limited.

58. S. (01:37:00) The spiritual pleasures to see that I'm working without receiving any pleasure for myself but to receive pleasure for the Creator is that to enjoy from the fact that I'm not enjoying for myself?

R. Yes you want to reach such a degree of love that you, want you give to the Creator, will be felt in you as self-reception just like a mother who gives to her baby to the extent that he receives from her, say drinks from a bottle or feeds from her breast to the extent that she has pleasure of the baby receiving and receiving.

59. (01:38:26) Concern for friends by intensifying the greatness of the importance of the goal and bringing their deficiency to raise it to the Creator, with all those things we obtained the correction of the vessel?

R. Yes, yes this is one of the components of correction.

60. S. (01:39:05) When we search for the greatness of the friends and eventually see them as great, who’s the work I am doing for, for the ten for myself or for the Creator?

R. For the Creator because that is on the way to give Him contentment. To the extent we prepare our vessels in our connection in love between us to that extent we are already giving contentment to the Creator.

61. S. (01:39:42) Can we find the greatness of a friend before we come to the love of the friend?

R. To reach love of the Creator before reaching love of the friend that is impossible, in what vessels will we be able to reveal this? You need to prepare the Kli, just like not having an ear and wanting to hear, to listen, that's what love of friends is. If I don't have love of friends then I can't feel anything from the Creator, I don't have the ability to hear, a device to hear Him.

62. S. (01:40:30) Why are we praying to the Creator to remove His concealment after all there’s great value to His concealment.

R. I need to hide the Creator from me to not get His revelation in order to receive and only to the extent that I'm able to receive His revelation in order to give Him contentment, not for myself but for Him, that by that I'm willing to be adhered to Him, devoted to Him, that devotion no, to the extent that I have it I’m able to accept His revelation, and then we connect from that.

63. S. (01:41:27) What does it mean to serve the Creator?

R. To serve the Creator means to serve the created beings because the creator doesn’t need anything from me from no one. He created and broke the Kli in order to have the ability to connect Him, to put Him back together and by that to give Him contentment, otherwise in comparison to us he’d be isolated He’d be disconnected because He doesn’t need anything. He had such an action that He made a connection between us to Him by breaking the Kli and then by the correction of the vessels we can be in contact with Him, we can show Him to what extent we yearn for connection with Him for His revelation.

64. S. (01:42:28) How to raise the greatness of the friends in the ten correctly as if we’re talking In praise of each friend personally or to talk generally?

R. How to speak I think that it depends on the state, it doesn't really matter. It's better to sometimes do this sometimes do that but individually personally is better but with everyone.

65. S. (01:43:12) How do you watch over the balance of the greatness of the friends and the greatness of the Creator, on the one hand so we don't concentrate on the greatness of the friends and we forget that the Creator is the goal, and on the other hand so we don't concentrate on the greatness of the Creator instead of in building the Kli of the love of friends?

R. That's a correct question, we need to have these two things as equal, the greatness of the Creator and the greatness of the society, there doesn’t have to be one without the other, he writes about it there’s an article about this even.

66. S. (01:43:51) When is bestowal towards others becoming pleasure for a person?

R. When he has vessels of bestowal, so bestowal upon others becomes a pleasure for him.

67. (01:44:07) Why is it so difficult to make room in the heart for the greatness of the friends and how to overcome this inner obstacle?

R. We need to try. Nothing to add here. Work on this and you will see.

68. S. (01:44:35) It is written when he finishes the work of love of friends then he can merit the love of the Creator. Does this work end when the love of friends remains permanent?

R. No it’s how it is on certain levels, degrees, it will always be that way. It will be on our degree, it will be on the degree of the students of Rabbi Shimon and more, it will always be.

69. S. (01:45:09) In excerpt number ten it's written that he doesn't have the desire just to bestow contentment to the king he will certainly harm the glory of the king which is called that he is giving sanctity to the external ones. Who or what are the external ones?

R. The external ones are our desires to receive that are outside our holiness.

70. S. (01:45:37) Is it correct to say that the correct advancement in our work is the feeling of the increasing intensifying shattering between us?

R. You can say that, go on.

71. S. (01:45:54) How is it possible to not forget the Creator in the joy that we have in a meeting of the friends but rather on the contrary strengthen in the greatness of the Creator?

R. It all depends on your intentions it all depends on to what extent you connect to each other and increase each other's importance accordingly you can connect yourselves, you can sanctify connection, make it more in order to bestow to one another, to bring it closer to the quality of the Creator, to bestowal, one from the other and bestowal to the Creator and the result of this connection will be felt in the Creator as bestowal upon Him and then you will connect to Him, the Creator according to that portion will be revealed within you according to your connection, in your connection.

72. S. (01:47:02) A person who has the greatness of the Creator from the greatness of the friends, how does he then feel the will to receive?

R. He feels the will to receive that makes him want to advance towards connection with the friends and with the Creator because his will to receive is already working in order to bestow.

73. S. (01:14:33) I receive greatness specifically from friends who are not in my ten. Is that feeling real?

R. It's better not to leave the borders of the ten, not that it's prohibited but it's better to remain in the ten because there you are given the space and by connecting with other tens you could possibly be escaping your work in your ten, so I do not recommend doing that, I don’t.

74. S. (01:48:17) Why is it difficult for a person to be convinced that the Creator stands behind a friend?

R. Because he doesn't see it he believes his own eyes and for that in order to see the Creator behind the friend he needs to annul the friend, annul in such a way that the friend isn’t concealing the Creator. What does it mean concealing? You see him because you depict him as opposite from the Creator and how do you have depicted him as being similar to the Creator then you wouldn’t see him, instead you would see the Creator. And that is how we need to reach the world so that the whole world will feel and seem to us as the Creator, will show us the Creator. To that extent, every item, every thing, the still, vegetative, animate, speaking will all bring us forms of the Creator. We think that we’re distant from it but we’re not that distant.

75. S. (01:49:47) Is it correct to say that come and see is the main action in our work?

R. Yes that is why that’s the name of the Creator, come and see, Bo reh, in Hebrew means come and see.

76. S. (01:50:05) As time goes by the loneliness and isolation become greater. No matter how much I make an effort in nullifying and loving, how much hatred and lowliness do we need to feel in order for the Creator to fill this emptiness?

R. Until you will feel that you are forcing Him to fulfill you according to your work in coming closer to Him. The Creator doesn't do any action without you preparing yourself for His fulfillment so make some movement towards Him and you will see that you are immediately fulfilled. We need to change ourselves and then we will feel in us a difference in fulfillment.
