Part 1: “Nachshon’s Jump and the Tearing of the Red Sea.”

Hello, we're in a lesson on the topic of Nachshon's jump and the tearing of the Red Sea. We'll read selected excerpts from the sources, starting from excerpt 1. The study materials are in Sviva Tovah and in the Arvut systems. You can also ask questions live through those sites. Whoever has a question in the study hall is asked to stand up, hold the mic close to the mouth, and speak loudly and clearly. Nachshon's jump and the tearing of the Red Sea. Rav, please.

M. Laitman: (00:38) Let's read. 

Reading the Article: (00:35) “Nachshon’s Jump and the Tearing of the Red Sea.”

1. Yalkut Shimoni, Exodus, Chapter 14, Item 234.

When Israel stood by the sea, one said, “I am not going down,” and another said, “I am not going down.” While they stood and sought advice, Nachshon Son of Aminadav jumped and fell into the waves of the sea. It is about him that he says, “Save me, O God, for the waters are up to my neck [soul].”

M. Laitman: (01:18) This is what happened to Nachshon. This is a famous story. He wasn't afraid of the sea, of the waves, of drowning in the sea. He wanted to just come out of Egypt completely. That's why he was the first one to jump, and the whole nation. This is it. This is all this talks about. 

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (02:09) It says here they stood by the sea. Who is it that's there? 

M. Laitman: The nation of Israel. They wanted to receive advice on how to come out, how to enter the sea. It's not that they went through some river or a puddle. The sea is before you. That's what they saw. They didn't know what to do.

Student: What is that sea in front of them? 

M. Laitman: Have you seen the sea? Have you seen the waves? If the sea is in a storm, and you have to cross it to the other shore.

Student: It's talking about entering the connection? 

M. Laitman: No, this talks about what it talks about. 

Student: And then he falls. Then he jumps and falls? 

M. Laitman: Nachshon, the son of Aminadav, jumped and fell into the sea waves. 

Student: He didn’t succeed? He fell? 

M. Laitman: No, no this is what happened. 

Student: So, to understand it just in a simple way? 

M. Laitman: You can do any interpretation you like.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (03:46) Who is that Nachshon in us? 

M. Laitman: The Nachshon in us is a force that isn't afraid of jumping into the sea to come out of Egypt. 

Student: Where does he have this confidence to just jump in? Just like this? What causes him to just suddenly jump into that sea? Are there any calculations? 

M. Laitman: He is one of the thousands that stood on the shore, and they couldn't make the jump, and he did. 

Student: What is it in our work to jump into the sea? 

M. Laitman: It means not to look, not to see the obstacles. What doesn't let them get closer to Israel? He believes that if there is any obstacle before them, a barrier, they can overcome it, no matter what. You understand that this is what that man thinks. In this case, he will surely not come out of the sea. He walks if the Creator gives such an obstacle before us, waves, a raging sea. We can find the strength in us to make this transition. 

Student: Why were the rest afraid to jump in? What were they afraid of? 

M. Laitman: Of course, he was a hero. There is information about him, not so much, but there are stories about him we can read. I don't remember where. I read it once. He understood that what is in front of them is to perform the Creator's commandment to the fullest. 

Student: Why isn't Moses, the one who is the head of the group, why didn't he jump in? 

M. Laitman: We don't see Moses as the one in these situations. It seems like each one has his own role. Each man feels at a specific moment that now he has to do something. This is the way it is. This is what the Torah tells us.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (07:40) Can we say that Nachshon did this action out of despair and being above reason? 

M. Laitman: No, not from despair. 

Student: It's written here, the waters are up to my neck, up to my soul. 

M. Laitman: It's unclear what this meant. We can understand this in different ways. In any case, he understood that he needed to overcome, and he needed to lead the whole nation after him. 

Student: What are we, as Bnei Baruch, lacking in order to be that Nachshon in Israel? 

M. Laitman: There isn't that spirit, no Nachshon. 

Student: You're here. 

M. Laitman: No, I can't imagine what to do here. This makes me unsuitable for this action.

Student: We will do it, Rav. 

M. Laitman: I think we won't have a choice and we'll come to this. Okay, so this case is clear.

Question (W Petah Tikva Center): (09:26) How should we not be afraid of Nachshon and to jump in, to not have any thoughts or doubts?

M. Laitman: I don't know. Actually, when I look inside of myself, I don't see the force. Maybe, this will come at the right time. But right now, I don't find the strength. I can't say everyone who wants to get to the Creator comes after me or performs such an action. For this we have to find such a force in each one to feel this. Let's hope we'll be worthy of the strength of Nachshon.

2. RABASH, Article No. 1 (1986), "Moses Went." One who has already begun the work, and is not saying that he will wait until the Creator gives him the desire to do the holy work and then he will begin to work. Rather, he does not want to wait because the craving to work and reach the truth pushes him forward though he does not see that he will have the ability to go forward alone, like Nachshon.

However, he sees that he cannot continue this work and is afraid that the burden of the kingdom of heaven, which he is now carrying, is beginning to fall off from him so he begins to call out for help, since he sees that each time, the burden he has taken on himself begins to fall.

M. Laitman: (11:54) If we enter deeper into the action, and a man gets closer to the action and he sees that it's not ready for him, he doesn't succeed. He mobilizes all his forces, and when the time comes, he jumps into action, and he shouts for the Creator to help him, because as it is said the waters have reached the soul. If we are rewarded with this, we'll come to it.

Question (W Petah Tikvah Center): (12:56) Nachshon, he jumps into the stormy sea? And the sea doesn't open up? 

M. Laitman: Only afterward it opens up.

Student: Meaning, thanks to him it opens up? 

M. Laitman: And to the merit that people followed Nachshon, the sea opened? 

Student: So, a person first needs to jump in seemingly into death. And then it opens up? 

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: It's thanks to his shout that the waters have reached his soul? 

M. Laitman: Yes. 

Student: He has this faith in the Creator? 

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: And where is it from? 

M. Laitman: He gathered all his strength and entered the sea. 

Student: He's certain that the Creator will help him. Or he simply doesn't care if he dies? 

M. Laitman: No, he doesn't care if he dies. 

Student: He's just not afraid.

M. Laitman: Yes, of course, because he has faith that he will go through the final sea. And we'll have the nation with him, and in such a way we'll rescue the situation. 

Student: Why doesn't he care about dying? 

M. Laitman: I don't think that he's performing this calculation.

Student: It's simply a force that pushes me without any awareness? 

M. Laitman: Yes. 

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (14:53) What force are we talking about? Each one doesn't have any strength, it's all the Creator's strength. And there needs to be faith and intention.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: Each one has a certain Nachshon in potential? 

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: What do we need to do? To pray, that's clear, but what else? 

M. Laitman: We need to bring the whole nation together. We have to be the reason for the unity of the whole world, and by this, bring the whole nation and the whole world in such a way that this will become salvation for the whole of Israel. I don't think we can do anything else. We've come to such a situation when only this is lacking, one general action. And the main thing is for everyone to take part. Is that clear? 

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (16:27) It's written that a person shouldn't wait until the Creator helps somebody, he should perform it, but he doesn't see that he's capable. Actually, he doesn't believe that he's capable. He sees he's incapable of doing it and he's afraid everything is going to fall right now. But it's written that the desire, that aspiration to attain the truth, pushes him forward, and that aspiration to the work and to the truth, despite you seeing that you're incapable and you don't have this Nachshon and you won't reach it. How does it overcome? How does each one receive that strong determination to do it right now, to jump in dissemination and connection? 

M. Laitman: Yes, this is the way we have to act. This is what we have to do. Wake up each one, wake up the others, and together in this way, we'll succeed in overcoming our ego and come to unity between us. This in essence is the transition into the final sea. Ein Sof.

Student: Can we take this as an example for us as a force that's just above us, in order to realize that thought? 

M. Laitman: I do what I can. More than this, I don't know. If some situation will pressure me, maybe but what Nachshon did, I can't imagine. 

Question (Kyiv 1): (19:05) On the one hand, we say that it's important to have preparation. We need to prepare the action and our whole method is in the preparation. And on the other hand, there's this quality of the Nachshon. You simply need to jump into a certain action without any preparation. What's the correct way to choose to act like Nachshon? 

M. Laitman: We have to perform some actions, such actions, so that they would truly give everyone, in a clear way, the action that can save everyone. 

Student: What does it mean to save everyone? 

M. Laitman:  I don't know what you're asking. We have to unite and go into one intention. Unite everyone, bundle everyone, warm everyone up, and lead everyone to the understanding that only unity between us can help us and bring us to success. To success.

Student: One last question. Does Nachshon have this quality that connects above everything, and it's just this sharp decision?

M. Laitman: Are you done speaking? 

Student: Yes, yes, I asked. 

M. Laitman: I didn't understand. 

Student: Is this the quality of Nachshon, this connection above everything, in this decisive form, without taking anything else into account? 

M. Laitman: Nachshon understood that only in this way, by showing an example to the whole nation, he can make it, also jump in the sea and cross it.

Question (W Petah Tikva Center): (22:01) Dear Rav, I wanted to ask, because we have millions of students, and rightfully so. Why you or someone that wants to jump in the water, it's enough for just one to jump in, for it to happen. 

M. Laitman: I was with the Rabash for many years, I learned from him. Also, he and myself are still unable to lead the nation. To perform an action of unity is one, but to entice the nation and carry them along to final correction, this is not upon me, this is not me. That's why each one is good in his own place.

3. Zohar for All, BeShalach [When Pharaoh Sent], "And ... Went, And It Came, And ... Stretched", Items No. 178-179

When Israel camped by the sea they saw several multitudes, several soldiers, and several camps above and below, and they all gathered over Israel. In their plight, Israel began to pray.

At that time, Israel saw adversity on all sides. The sea with its mounting waves was before them, behind them were all the appointees, all the camps of Egypt, and above them were several slanderers. They began to cry out to the Creator.

M. Laitman: (24:36) So, from here we see that the nation seemingly wasn't ready, but when Nachshon jumped, then they followed him. This is also a heroic action.

Question (W Petah Tikva Center): (25:00) Is it possible to ask about the Nachshon in the Ten? How do we form such a force that is not ready to just remain? 

M. Laitman: Even if there are many such forces between us, we only have to see how with their help we can overcome and become together. We unite more. 

Student: Meaning, the more that we add in the work of connection, at a certain point we'll reach that despair that we must jump in? 

M. Laitman: Yes. 

Student: It's just in adding the quantity of work? 

M. Laitman: Yes.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (25:58) What's the difference between the force of Moses and Nachshon? 

M. Laitman: There are many such heroes in the Torah, in this whole story in Egypt. Each one has his own mission. Each one has his own destiny. We have to just try and direct ourselves literally at the heroes. 

Student: How does this force operate in the Ten? 

M. Laitman: In the Ten, the general force acts. Which is the force of Moshe, because he united, he led the whole nation. But it's not that we can speak about everyone individually. 

Question (Istanbul): (27:57) Hello to all the friends in the world Kli from our gathering here in Istanbul. Is that state of the Red Sea, that tearing of the Red Sea, it's talking about our work in the right and the left, and it opens up so we can advance? 

M. Laitman: We will study this. We haven't learned what happens after going through the Red Sea, after the exit from Egypt. We will learn this.

4. RABASH, Article No. (1990), "Why the Speech of Shabbat Must Not Be as the Speech of a Weekday, in the Work."

When the people of Israel came to a state where they saw that they could not escape from the bad, meaning they saw that the power of the bad was on all sides and they did not see any salvation by nature, this is considered that the Kli of the bad has been completed.

At that time comes […] when the Creator gives them the light, and this light reforms them. In other words, by this, they emerge from the governance of evil, called “vessels of self-reception,” and are rewarded with vessels of bestowal. This is the meaning of “Stand by and see the salvation of the Lord, which He will do for you today.” This means that once the Kli of the bad has been completed, there is room for disclosure of light on the part of the upper one. This is considered that the Creator is giving them the vessels of bestowal.

M. Laitman: (30:21) Yes, and then they begin to move closer to the exit, okay? 

Question (Women Ukraine 2): (30:41) In the book of Jonah, we also read this phrase, “The water is reached up to my soul.” Question, what is the connection between these two states? 

M. Laitman: I don't know, and I don't want to answer such questions. Don't be so smart.

Question (Woman Kyiv 7): (31:22) You taught me that when there is this fear of death, we need to close our eyes and to pray. What else can we add? 

M. Laitman: If you can overcome this fear of death, then you can choose your path. We have to fight with this state and come out to a state of spiritual ascent. This is what Nahshon shows us. 

Student: Can I ask another question? When we unite the souls, what happens to us? 

M. Laitman: When we unite our souls, each one of us gets strength from everyone. This helps everyone. Helps each one to come out of the Red Sea, the end, Ein Sof, and from this end, come to the beginning. Ein Sof de Rosh.

5. RABASH, Article No. 939, "The Exodus from Egypt and the Giving of the Torah"

In the exodus from Egypt, they received vessels of bestowal, which are vessels of Hassadim [mercies]. The tearing of the Red Sea was “seeing,” which are lights of Hochma, received in vessels of reception. There it was through an awakening from above, as it is written, “The Lord will fight for you, and you will be silent.”

M. Laitman: (33:48) Well, this doesn't have much to do with where we are, what we're dealing with, but we get at the end of exit from Egypt, or afterward from different states, we always get some additional force. Next.

6. RABASH, Article No. 18 (1990), "Why the Speech of Shabbat Must Not Be as the Speech of a Weekday, in the Work.”

When they were already complete in terms of the evil, when they saw that it was impossible to emerge from the bad in a natural way, but only by a miracle, this is regarded as the evil being completed sufficiently. At that time, the help from above should come, to give them the light to complete the Kelim, meaning that the vessels of reception will acquire the form of bestowal. This does not pertain to man’s work. This is why it is written, “You will keep silent,” since now is the time when the Creator gives.

M. Laitman: (35:08) So, after the work with the correction of the vessels, Kelim, is done, uniting them all in one direction, when the action of the Creator comes, what He builds and arranges, Israel, He gives them the mind, the strength to come out of Egypt.

Question (Tbilisi): (35:41) Dear Rav, of course, I won't compare myself to Nachshon, but I want to admit that yesterday during the afternoon lesson, simply all of the evil was revealed. It was all in me, and the friends were feeling the Creator, and there was just such nullification towards the friends that I was simply zero compared to them. And what was left was just a prayer for them and gratitude to the Creator for them. What's next from that, Rav? 

M. Laitman: There is nothing else we need, just being this. 

Student: I'm thanking the Creator then, I'm thanking you, and I'm thanking my great friends. 

Question (Women Turkiye 7): (36:46) How were the children of Israel able to move forward, despite their fears, to believe that the Creator would help them? 

M. Laitman: They didn't know that the Creator would help them. They were walking in the force of faith, not the force of knowledge. When a person turns to the Creator and asks Him for help, he doesn't know. He doesn't know if the Creator will help him, maybe vice versa. And then from all this strength of faith, he asks, he prays, he cries, he shouts, cries out for the Creator to help him. And if his shout, his cry comes out from his heart, then the Creator helps him, and in such a way, he comes out from Egypt but before this, nobody knows. They need the force of faith.

Student: What force of faith do we truly need? Can you explain it? 

M. Laitman: The help of the Creator, the Creator helps us. This is called He gives us the force of faith. 

Student: Can you explain how this is felt in the Creator when He starts to feel that He gets strength, the Creator's strength? 

M. Laitman: We can't feel how this works. You feel that this works. This is the opening of the force of the Creator in the creation. This is the force of faith.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (39:41) Teacher, I'm not sure if this is 100% connected, but ultimately, then there's a state of, he's swallowed down and he shall swallow it up and come out with a great acquisition. Let's say now all of these influences of the friends and everything that was invested disappears, and then you feel as if you don't have anything. And then when we come out, it simply gets revealed, and then it gets returned and added, and comes back and returned? 

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: Do we need this in continuation? What do we do with all that?  There is a long path. We should examine ourselves like this calculator, but there's almost no step forward. What is it? 

M. Laitman: It's in order to give a person the feeling that he has to get to the edge, to the end, and then the Creator will help him. 

Student: This faith closes up your eyes, and then you get a different idea from what you had in the beginning? 

M. Laitman: Yes, you start seeing what you see. It's called in the light of Hassadim. 

Student: Right now, this path that you see, what is that called? 

M. Laitman: We gradually get through all these jumps, all the efforts to the strength of a true jump. This will happen. 

Question (W Petah Tikva Center): (42:21) How to feel, how to come to the state where the revelation of evil is complete, to be rewarded with the miracle? 

M. Laitman: If you want a miracle, you will not attain it.

Student: How can I deserve it? 

M. Laitman: Without wanting it.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (42:59) How do you see the jump of Nachshon? To draw the whole nation of Israel to the final correction?

M. Laitman: I don't know, if we all want it by that, we will be able to light up the whole nation, and it will happen. It will happen. I really hope it’s soon.

Question (W Petah Tikva Center): (43:47) What is this suffering we have to feel from all the sides to go through? 

M. Laitman: Lacking the light of Hassadim. 

Question (W Petah Tikva Center): (44:12) The quality of Nachshon that's born in the nation, it also depends on the state?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: And the state the nation is in when there's a threat, and if we are like Nachshon, depending on the nation, maybe he hasn't achieved such a state, as it is said, better to die than live? 

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: And we have to wait for this? 

M. Laitman: We have to wait, but to try to come closer to it. 

Student: How to do it? 

M. Laitman: We'll learn that together.

Question (W Petah Tikva Center): (45:02) What makes Nachshon jump? Faith in the Creator or love for the nation, to save it? 

M. Laitman: Yes. That and that together. 

Student: So, it can be the same thing? 

M. Laitman: Yes.

Question (W Petah Tikva Center): (45:21) In essence, what prevents, what isn't letting Bnei Baruch cry out correctly is lack of faith in us, so we have to strengthen faith?

M. Laitman: Yes. 

Question (W Petah Tikva Center): (45:50) In the whole world Kli there is one, 10% of people that have very strong faith. They have come here for decades doing this work we're all united. There are ten people that speak like Nachshon that use this force, this faith. Are these ten people that can succeed in this? 

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: (45:29) There are definitely ten people, so let's have this intention so that each one thinks and grabs this snake by the tail and performs this jump. What's the problem? And if the Creator is here, we can concentrate on this single request. 

M. Laitman: What does everyone think? What's the problem? Why nonetheless are we incapable? Silence. Why is it silent? 

Student: There is one in favor. There are hundreds like these. No doubt. This is what we do all day. People that don't have money come here. We're all together. We're not lonely. We have to grab this serpent by the tail. Tomorrow, we have Mashiach's meal. This is the only opportunity that can move us together, to always be in love and unity as one nation. 

All the years we've been reading the Haggadah, that there are thirty-six true people. The Shechina between us in the highest sense is waiting for us. What are we waiting for? In excerpt number four which we read today it was written, what are we waiting for? Just ten people. We need ten people. Stand up. Who else? Surely there are more people. Stand up. For now, it's just women. What about the men? Thanks to the righteous women we came out of Egypt, and we'll save this year, Israel. Israel will come out.

M. Laitman: Thank you. 

Student: Thank you all those brave to stand up. We'll sing together about the revelation of the opening of the Red Sea.

Student: (49:27) I want to say that I'm proud of women like these. I'm proud of such strong women they will bring the redemption. 

Student: There are women like these everywhere. Each one has her own role. Each one has the strength of Nachshon. There isn't such a thing as we have to rise. You said last year at the Congress that we have all the opportunities. We've been praying this whole year. Why don't we use it now? 

M. Laitman: Please. 

Student: I'm begging everyone. The women are strengthening you. We just need at least ten men. The Creator gave five heroes. Here there are enough to succeed. 

Question (W Petah Tikva Center): (51:03) First of all, thank you very much. A lot of health to you. Should a person annul themselves to jump like Nachshon? Can you reach the Nachshon's jump to concede something? To cancel himself?

M. Laitman: Yes, of course.

Student: Where is this expressed? Is this one of the conditions or what conditions are there? 

M. Laitman:  We can read about it. Rabash has articles and there are other such articles, but this is an act of heroism.

Student: What does it mean to annul yourself? 

M. Laitman: To go on the calculations that he wants to adhere to the Creator in that moment and forever. And that's what he wants.

7. Baal HaSulam, Shamati, Article No. 151, “And Israel Saw the Egyptians”

In the verse, “and Israel saw the Egyptians dead upon the seashore,” “…and the people feared the Lord, and they believed in the Lord and in His servant Moses,” we must understand how “they believed” is relevant here. Clearly, the miracle of the exodus from Egypt and the division of the sea brought Israel to greater faith than they had had before. After all, our sages said about the verse, “This is my God, and I will glorify Him,” that a maid by the sea saw more than did Ezekiel the prophet.

Hence, this means that the exodus from Egypt was a case of open miracles, which brings to knowledge of the Lord, which is the opposite of the meaning of “faith,” since it does not mean above reason. And when seeing open miracles, it is very hard to be in faith, since, moreover, it is a time of expansion of the reason. Therefore, what is the meaning of the text, “and they believed in the Lord”?

However, we should interpret according to the interpretation of “All believe that He is a God of faith.” The verse narrates Israel’s praise, who, even after seeing the open miracles, their servitude of the Creator was not reduced in them, which is by way of faith above reason.

M. Laitman: (54:33) We made the preparation for this excerpt. Let’s move on.

8. Zohar for All, VaYigash [Then Judah Approached], "And You Shall Eat and Be Satisfied, and Bless", Item No. 58

It was said that man’s nourishments before the Creator are as hard as the tearing of the Red Sea since the tearing of the Red Sea was to open ways above, to reveal the Man’ula, and to drown the Egyptians. It turns out that ways would open in the Man’ula to drown the Egyptian, and paths in the Miftacha for Israel. And as ways and paths open in it, so it splits and breaks open because two opposite actions are included in the tearing of the Red Sea, since as ways would open by the force of the Man’ula, and paths by the force of the Miftacha, the sea would split and open to drown the Egyptians and to save Israel.

M. Laitman: (55:44) Was that clear or not? Maybe read it again.

Re-reading Item 8. (55:58)

8. Zohar for All, VaYigash [Then Judah Approached], "And You Shall Eat and Be Satisfied, and Bless", Item No. 58

It was said that man’s nourishments before the Creator are as hard as the tearing of the Red Sea since the tearing of the Red Sea was to open ways above, to reveal the Man’ula, and to drown the Egyptians. It turns out that ways would open in the Man’ula to drown the Egyptian, and paths in the Miftacha for Israel. And as ways and paths open in it, so it splits and breaks open because two opposite actions are included in the tearing of the Red Sea, since as ways would open by the force of the Man’ula, and paths by the force of the Miftacha, the sea would split and open to drown the Egyptians and to save Israel.

M. Laitman: (57:06) Questions? It's nice. Yes. So, there are no questions about this excerpt. 

Question (W Petah Tikva Center): (57:40) What is the force of Man’ula mean? 

M. Laitman: Yes, there is Miftacha and there is Man’ula. These are two opposite forces. Miftacha opens up the Kli, and Man’ula closes up the Kli. Miftacha, Man’ula. Key and lock. That's it. 

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (58:46) It seems like we shouldn’t ask for a miracle for ourselves but who should we ask for? 

M. Laitman: The Creator. I think that all of our prayers are to Him, and we want to send all of our words to Him, the good ones or something. 

Student: Can we ask for this miracle for the ten? First of all for the group of Bnei Baruch How to ask for this miracle? 

M. Laitman: Meaning for the Creator it's not worthwhile? But for Bnei Baruch? Maybe for the Ten. Well, if already I think nonetheless out of our connection it's worthwhile for us to reach a prayer to the Creator, for the Creator. 

Question (W Petah Tikva Center): (1:00:44) Not about the articles, but the excerpts from when you said we had questions about play, game, and shame. There was a point of discernment about who we're playing for in relation to each other or the Creator, but more this question about shame, this clarification. We have two types of activity with regards to each other, and we try to acquire what you’re constantly telling us what we should do in relation to the Creator, and maybe ashamed of my environment. Someone might say something about the way I present myself or my question, or maybe I can close my eyes and pretend that I'm in spirituality. Maybe some people will envy me, and these are my actions with regard to the environment. 

But when I start thinking about the Creator or in the direction of the teacher, let's say, I don't just feel shame. We're playing with our ego, with our pride. Everything I listed is corporeal with regard to each other when we do it. So, this U-turn, that now I think you're looking at me and you see right through me, this is the place that's more than me and that doesn't depend on whether I understand if it exists. If I feel it and I try to interact with it or not, it's looking at me. Then it's not just shame, I just want to throw the mic and run away maybe, and I won't come back.

There is a big risk that my ego won't be able to bear it. The place where I feel this disregard causes a different, I don't know, a different need. It's something completely different. It starts there with my ego, with my intention, and my question is how to put this place into work between us, this place that's looking at us at all times, this understanding that there is something bigger than us that sees right through us and is the place in relation to which we should measure ourselves, direct ourselves, that how do we practically, maybe we'll come up with some forms to remind each other, maybe we should add. 

M. Laitman: (1:04:15) Sorry to say it like this to you. You're asking to adhere to the Creator. It's possible only if everything, everything inside of you will be open, will open up for Him, then it will work out for you. In general, everyone's asking for this, especially women, so you have this possibility. 

Today is our last lesson. Well, we also have tomorrow. We need to think about how to continue that feeling after the holiday. Well, and on that I would want to conclude. 

Reader: The announcements and we'll finish up with the song.
