Part 1:

Baal HaSulam. Introduction to The Book of Zohar. #63

1.Rav’s Introduction: Yes, this is a very special introduction, maybe we need to go over it a little bit more also in our free time each and everybody and write down questions so we can scrutinize it in front of everybody here so everybody will be satisfied. We should go deeper into it and specifically the connection through the friends, through their questions is very essential and an internal connection, so let's try to go deeper into Baal HaSulam’s texts in general.

Reading 63 (01:03) Now you can understand that there really is no end to the merit

2. R. (03:40) Is it okay, maybe read it one more time maybe I will read now Item 63: Now you can understand that there is really no end to the merit of the first generation over the last ones. Meaning that the first generations that were back then thousands of years ago they were very important that souls were a lot more refined, much more ready for corrections. As this is the rule in all the Partzufim of the worlds, that the more refined one is the first to be sorted in the Partzuf. The correction proceeds from light to heavy, what is corrected first later on helps correct on the following states and following levels so the whole correction proceeds from light to heavy. Therefore the Kelim of HBD sorted first the most refined ones in the worlds and also in the souls. Thus the souls in the first two millennia the 2000 years were infinitely higher, they were the most refined and with that they could not receive the full measures of the lights, the full measure of the light due to the absence of the lower parts of the worlds and in themselves namely the HGTNHYM. Then it was also in the two middle millennium after the first two millennia, the middle two millennia, the second two millennia Kelim HGT were also sorted in the world and also in the souls.

The souls in and out of themselves very truly highly refined since the merit of the Kelim HGT is very close to that of HBD these are vessels of bestowal yet the lights were hidden in the worlds due to the absence of the vessels from the Hazeh down in the world and in the souls. The most important at the vessels of reception because they pull the lights and specifically for them the lights are revealed and the Kelim of HBD HGT are very refined with their coarseness of root, 1 and 2 and the upper half of Bina. So in there is no truthful revelation of the desires and according to the revelation of the lights, the manifestation of the lights, because the revelation is really speaking to the light of Hochma and they are not coarse enough vessels for the light of Hochma to be revealed there. So in our generations although the essence of the souls is the worst in the whole of a reality I am talking already about the end of the generations in the last two millennia that pertain to NHY of the general Partzuf HBD HGT NHY.

NHY is us, the greatest desires to receive that come from the first vessels that underwent great shattering and have entered the great desire to receive in order to receive which is why they could not be sorted for sanctity. Until now it was impossible to correct them until now yet they are the ones that complete the Partzuf of the world and the Partzuf of the souls in respect to the vessels. The work is completed only through them, now when the Kelim of NHY in the general Partzuf are completed and all the vessels Rosh, Toch, Sof, are in the Partzuf, full measures of light, meaning Rosh, Toch, Sof are being extended all of those who are worthy of them. Those or who are in the world and those who are today capable of correcting themselves they truly extend the because their soul is very coarse and broken and through even the small corrections one is capable of, those can draw the great light through all the worlds, all of the earlier vessels and then they receive a complete NRN. Only by the completion of the lowly souls can the highest the lights manifest and not before, is it clear?

3. S. (09:38) I wanted to ask not exactly to the topic but it's important how to overcome the hatred to the friends and draw the love so we can look into each other's eyes?

R. First of all you have to understand that whatever you have in your head and heart comes directly from the Creator and not from any other source or from anybody else. The Creator is responsible for all the actions and all the states that occur to us, with us and between us and if we think that it is us, that we somehow connect between us and become closer or move apart from each other, this is all a lie. Everything is done only from there is None Else Besides Him and this is how when we look at reality this way and we begin to see more correctly that it is the Creator operating and what it is that he wants. He wants us to correct these states that he is arranging between us so therefore all of the mess, all of this order, arguments, conflicts and different kinds of the disorder and everything, all the wars. In particular wars between people, between countries and in general all over the world, with all of the things that are happening in the ecology, with the climate, everything that we are doing now with this pandemic.

All of these things are actually what is happening, it is happening because the Creator is giving us these conditions so in spite of these conditions we would reach connection, despite all of these conditions this should assist us in our connection. Otherwise the way will not know how to reach connections, so the Creator waking up in us all kinds of frictions, all kinds of collisions, it is all so that each one accordingly could take care of his own character, his uniqueness, his corrections and this way reach identification with the Creator. Between each and every two friends stands the Creator and he organizes all of those states, we exist inside the upper light and the upper light constantly fills our place with all kinds of different forms and accordingly we see each other. Accordingly we are in rejection or in some disposition to each other and so we must not forget about it, we should reinforce that truth and this is how we can quickly reach corrections and the revelation of the Creator between us.

S. So on my behalf I need to nullify and pray?

R. Not only that we need to perform all kinds of actions in order to make it so that the Creator would be revealed between us, of course we do need to pray, of course we do need to nullify ourselves, the ego of each and everyone. Certainly we have to activate, ask the Creator that he would activate between us the connection among everybody and through that we can reach connection and the correction.

4. S. (13:54) What is the difference between the Partzuf of the world and the rest of the souls?

R. The Partzuf of the world is the system of the world meaning the Partzufim that organize around us all the environment and they manage us and the Creator through them, through these Partzufim, through all of these causes he wakes up in us all kinds of forms of relationships in order to bring us to correction. The Olamot, worlds, come from the word HaElemah, concealment so the Creator is concealed, his providence of good that does good is hidden and despite that we have to discover that it is all to our benefit that it comes from the good who does good and that we in each and every moment have to correct the relationship between us especially in the ten so each ten would feel itself, that is truly has a disposition to be as one.

S. How to distinguish between a world and a Partzuf?

R. You do not feel either the world or the Partzuf. The Partzuf is ten Sefirot and the world is already ten Sefirot and more and more details, it is a collection of the ten Partzufim or five Partzufim, it depends how you divide it.

5. S. (16:07) This is why only the lowly souls can the highest light manifest in and not before?

R. This is truthful until all the souls are corrected, there would be no correction on all the three worlds. Meaning the other worlds of Beria, Yetzira and Assiya would not be able to rise to the world of Atzilut and later from Atzilut to go down to the point of this world and by this the entire correction will be completed. Then the higher light will shine dress from the Rosh of Galgata, AB, SAG, MA, BON and below the Tabur to the ABYA all the way to the final Sium Raglin which is called that his feet will stand on the Mount of Olives. This is the end of correction, when all the 5 worlds, all the Partzufim, all the souls, it will be all incorporated into a single complete light without any differences.

6. S. (17:26) Yesterday through the whole day, in happiness, we were working on the importance and greatness of the book of Zohar and here it is written that the book will be revealed. What is an entrance in quality with the book of Zohar? This is our effort. What is the quality of work with this book?

R. It is when ten friends sit together and they connect between them with all of their hearts and souls with all of their qualities, above their qualities since they are all different. They are so different that they even hate each other according to their own nature. They are such that it is impossible to find people in this world that would be more contrasting, more different, more strangers to each other according to whatever you may say and they nevertheless connect between them gradually and this is with great difficulties and then they discover in the connection between them on top of the hatred within them, they discover love and in that love they discover the Creator, the highest degree. They did truly great work on themselves overcoming themselves such work that they simply are great in their internal efforts that is so great that you cannot even imagine this but let's hope that we can become incorporated in them because this group exist and we will get into it all of our groups and we will enter it all of us and then even though we are the lowest ones we will make it so that we will elevate this group raise it to the summit of the revelation of the Creator, with attachment to the Creator and we also will be there with them.

7. S. (20:18) Exactly to continue this structure of the coarse souls and the more refined souls, when we raise a prayer in the ten it also must go through the more higher souls?

R. Of course. The structure does not change, the structure does not change as it was and it was broken in this form and in that form it becomes corrected and certainly all the actions that we perform have to pass through the entire system of the souls until the light of Ein Sof.

S. So the response to the MAD also goes through those souls?

R. Yes and because of that thanks to our work we cause these souls to rise even higher. We work truly, who are we, so bad, so broken, so weak, but because we are at the bottom through our work the smallest ones that is as if what is in it? But we also cause an elevation to those higher souls. Why is that? Don't look at us that we are so small and bad. We are small and bad because this is our place in the system therefore if the make an effort as much as we are capable of, in a very small one we are doing it because we exist in the heaviness of the system that is there and therefore when we do even the smallest the littlest thing we bring the light to the entire system and therefore even though they were highly refined souls and they did great work we must not underestimate what we can add. Indeed we have to respect each and every friend and our work and we have to appreciate what the Creator gave us.

S. (22:36) So it is good for us to see that when one big net along with them all the time, with all the Kabbalists?

R. Certainly yes. This gives us great responsibility and importance for the fact that we nevertheless exists even though we are just a small and weak screw but we are very important in this structure, in the whole system they are at the foundation of the entire structure.

S. Also this program of providence for all of mankind, is it going through the pure souls?

R. Everything. The system does not change. The fact that there is the shattering and all kinds of changes is only in respect to the receivers so that they will enter the correction more but the system itself is not changing. There are even questions about the shattering and the mixture it is all about how all in all these are additional consequences of the incorporation of the souls but actually about the system itself the shattering does not affect the system it only affects the incorporation.

8. S. (23:59) To respect each and every friend means to choose connection above the feeling of rejection, we have the ability to do this effort?

R. Yes it is the whole work. We have to do this, it is our whole free choice.

9. S. (24:34) You said that all the friction and the mess and the lack of order is the state coming from the Creator so men will help his friend. Is that in the internal work you mentioned that we have before the Creator the state he brings or man will help his friends is actually physically? Where does it work more?

R. At this stage in respect to us it works in a physical manner because we still cannot work with the spiritual forces with intentions in order to bestow. Just starting seemingly to come closer to them but mostly it is still ordinary forces in the framework of this world, we try to come closer as much as we understand our own forces to come closer to each other and this way to reach the beginning of our connection and once we reach the beginning of the connection we will start to feel we become incorporating into each other to some degree and that already will be spirituality.

S. If we see that nothing helps we did everything with our hands and legs and it did not work so what to do? How? The spiritual forces we do not have yet, the prayer is not working and the actions there is no result from them.

R. Look so here we have to understand once more that there were generations where people were more refined and they felt how they belong to the systems of connection between people and even to the forces of nature. We exist in such a time where this system is much more concealed for us and we do not feel that we have any connection between us besides the connections of this world that we make artificially and this is our work to discover that we are connected internally to each other, that only through strengthening in our internality between us to that same extent we can turn to the Creator and start to discover him and ascribe to him everything that we have; our thoughts, desires, intentions, actions only to the Creator and then we enter a life that is above reason where everything is operating toward bestowal to the Creator. This is what we need to try to discover in the relations between us.

10. S. (27:42) Maybe it is a kind of strengthening of the connections between the tens?

R. Between the tens I’m still afraid to say that we already have to strengthen those connections between the groups because I am afraid that we will forget about uniting the ten itself and therefore we are in between. It is good for us nevertheless to keep our general system that is holding us together and this is a thousands of people and it is worthwhile for us at the same time to be concerned each for his own ten so that those tens will become stronger and then we have concerned both in this and that and even though caring for the ten is more important.

11. S. (29:04) We see that only in the last few years you felt that it was right to build tens, why is this called a ten and why can it help the shattered and very coarse souls like us?

R. We are operating according to the plan of the Kabbalists from the construction of the first ten which was the ten of Rabbi Shimon that specifically they discovered the entire system in its wholeness and they wrote about it in the book of Zohar and we are now studying introduction to this book, so we are studying the introduction to the book of Zohar and since then the Kabbalists were yearning to study together meaning in the connection between them and the minimum many is at least two, not to study alone and if possible then even up to ten people because this match is the spiritual system and this is why it was determined this way.

S. You depicted that the ten that created the Zohar that they were comprising of very contradicting forces to each other very extreme differences. How can we in the ten emphasize this and reach it?

R. We should only crave for connection and whatever is revealed on the way it will be revealed because the Creator is waking it up in us and then we will overcome those differences between us and nevertheless connect above them so we should not cancel the differences, we should not cancel all the fractions but instead on top of them love covers all crimes. In this way.

12. S. (31:13) How can the more coarse souls complete the higher Partzufim?

R. Because they bring their coarseness to the entire level. To the level of the souls, to the level of the Worlds and to the level of the entire structure of creation so the coarse vessels the great desire to receive when they go to correct themselves they exist at the foundation of the entire structure, HBD, HGT, NHYM, which is the whole structure so NHYM, the lower four vessels are the most broken to the correction is much harder than for the higher vessels HBD and HGT, therefore they complete the entire structure and also in the revelation and the correction of those vessels the highest lights come because there is an inverse relation between the lights and vessels so the revelation of the lowest vessels, NHYM the lights of Hochma are revealed although it is shining on top, the Rosh of the Partzuf to the vessels that at the bottom of the Partzuf.

13. S. (32:40) You said in one of the lessons that when we study the Baal HaSulam articles we have to connect with him and in this way somehow connect and receive from him what he wants to give us. How to do this correctly because there are so many things there how not to make mistakes?

R. I do not understand why you are confused about this and where are all these things you may get confused with there is nothing here only to have a connection between us, the connection of our hearts and together with the creator this is all. What are you getting all confused about, how many things do you have there? There is nothing, all of our desires, all of our thoughts we would like to connect all of them and together with the Creator so it would truly be the point of connection between us, a point of connection between us this is all.

14. S. (33:54) It is written that the lowest vessels, NHY are prepared and now we have the whole Rosh, Toch, Sof?

R. Sometimes as we see the lower four NHYM with the Malchut and sometimes we see only three, NHY without the Malchut do we mention Malchut or not because in the Malchut they mention Yesod and the three lines and the three thirds HBD, HGT, NHY it does not matter for the time it does not matter we will answer all of these things.

15. S. (34:37) We see that the vessels are organized in HBD, HGT, NHYM and every layer is working inside this for the correction so working in incorporation to change the shattered vessels and the vessels of bestowal.

R. You did not talk about correction this is why you are asking, right we will learn about it but the correction we will talk about and the incorporation of the vessels as well.

16. S. (35:13) The first millennium it says that the souls were very high and the second millennium it says that the souls were very refined. Can you say what the difference is? What do they mean?

R. In the first two millennia those are the high souls whose correction is relatively very easy because the ego in them is not so great, they are closer to the feeling, to the spiritual attainment and therefore they discovered whatever they could discover, The second two millennia those are already when the souls become more coarse, their work in a more difficult way let's say. They connect those souls they connect to the first souls of HGT, and the highest three and the middle three HBD connect to the highest three. This is how they correct themselves while the souls that come in the last two millennia which is our time especially in our time we exist in all together in the end of the last two millennia so here this is very hard work and the souls are very coarse. They are not capable of connecting themselves, depicting themselves as connecting with the spiritual system and for them this is how everything is cascading in such a way that it is very hard for them to awaken. Therefore the world becomes divided into billions of hearts and billions of souls and we have technology and all of the problems and the mess, the connections in the world from one end to the other around the globe and so on. It makes it all difficult for us on one hand on the other hand in brings us to a state where any correction even the smallest one can go over everybody and this way it corrects and brings us to the final end of correction.

17. S. (38:10) What is the basis upon which the ten can renew its strength and connection? What is the basis?

R. The ten should only see one thing before it first of all they connect between them and they want each time to renew the Creator between them this is it to be aimed at the Creator means to be aimed at the center of the ten and there in the connection to build the Creator is it says you have made me where is this deed of ours between us in which the build the Creator. The Creator is called the general force of bestowal which we build outside of ourselves within the group so the complete group has to be more and more directed to mutual bestowal between the friends. They should feel from one day to the next day they are building this form of connection between them and then this form is going to become the Creator. This is how the Creator will be revealed only in this form.

18. S. (39:57) Now the complete levels of the lights are extended in Rosh, Toch, Sof, in all levels to those who are… and the question is who are those who are the ones who are worthy to receive?

R. Who are they? The ones who are demanding.

19. S. (40:22) How can we become worthy to become a vessel to receive these lights?

R. If we demand correctly we will be worthy when we have a deficiency for it. First if we connect and demand either that the Creator connect us correctly or we feel that in some way we are already connecting in the right way the Creator is helping us so we need to try and discover what it is that we reveal in the connection between us, all of the spiritual worlds, all of spirituality, all of our future is revealed only in the connection between people the correct connection between us when there is each one relinquish meaning for the others and connecting for the sake of the others.

20. S. (41:25) How can we correct ourselves in our time even though we know that we are the heaviest souls?

R. What does that matter? How do we know what is not the heaviest? He's explaining it, we cannot depict ourselves in their place. We are what we are and we have to work from the state we are in.

21. S. (41:53) It says that the one who was the most refined is first sorted in the Partzuf, what does it mean being more refined and what does it mean to be first sorted?

R. Refined means that there is less coarseness than for the other this is less of a selfish ego so he can in a group let's say to use all the forces of the group and to raise himself to the Creator and to connect to him and then from that purity that connection he attained with the Creator he can bestow to others and this way each one helps the others.

22. S. (42:41) How are all the course and heaviest souls connected between them in all of their incarnations?

R. This is not upon us to speak about yet but there is a connection between everybody and everybody, between everyone and everyone. But this connection still goes through the ten, each persons private ten.

23. S. (43:08) What are those lowly and bottom most parts of reality?

R. The lower ones, the weaker ones, the ones lower than all, for now it’s us. A next generation will come if we don’t correct everything because we can raise all the souls to us and correct them. If we belong to the generation of the Messiah as the Baal HaSulam says then there is no choice and there is no problem. We can finish the corrections. Because we are already in the final system on the ladder. So if we will make an effort we will be able to end all the corrections.

24. S. (44:13) Is each soul is broken in a different way? Are there souls that are more broken or less broken?

R. Yes, of course. It all depends on the coarseness of a soul, the coarseness in it.

25. S. (44:29) What are the complete NRN and the connection between them?

R. The complete NRN we’ll attain it. For now we don’t have it.

26. S. (44:42) What does it mean that a person is refined with respect to spiritual attainment?

R. It means that he gets help from above from the upper light, and the upper light refines his vessels, and then he is worthy of receiving the upper light in his vessels.

27. S. (45:05) Is our connection in tens the first stage of the refinement of our soul?

R. Yes, this is correct.

28. S. (45:21) Becoming incorporated in the friends means that I completely annul myself and I take her desire instead of my desire or do I now have two desires, mine and hers?

R. This is a difficult to express now in a right way where you won’t get confused. I’d say think whichever way you want. The main thing is to do an action. What from this is pushing you into an action? More closeness, more prayer...

29. S. (45:57) Do the lowest souls in the general system remain the lowest after the corrections or do they rise?

R. After all the corrections there are no difference between the souls. They are all incorporated in one sphere where each one completes the other. That’s why they feel themselves with the others together, without any difference between them. That they are all as one soul.

30. S. (46:29) You said that the Creator is revealed after we discover that we are all different, contradictory, strangers. Specifically from that we discover and we connect and discover love. So how can we discover love when we feel such great rejection?

R. Specifically love will cover all crimes. We have to think about it and understand that this is the only way it works. If there won’t be a difference between us we will not reveal any attraction until love, we couldn’t. We sometimes feel this in our life. That if people really love each other they feel sometimes that they have to awaken a little argument because then the attraction and love and connection is felt more.

31. S. (47:23) Can you give example of what is the coarseness within us?

R. The coarseness is that I feel myself separated from all of humanity, of each and everyone. This is a sign of the coarseness in me.

32. S. (47:43) How do we as a group get into the group of souls of those who wrote the book of Zohar? How will that happen?

R. We need to reach that state that degree, and that’s by a great light that shines on us. And it will give us that coarseness and we will pray and receive connection upon that coarseness. Then we can receive that connection with the group of Rabbi Shimon.

33. S. (48:18) What specifically is the part of our correction as the most coarse part of creation, of the created being?

R. We will raise on our shoulders that same group of Rabbi Shimon to the state of Gmar Tikkun even though they revealed it but from themselves. In this way they’ll reveal it in the general form.

34. S. (48:44) In our time those who are not working in the ten do not feel any need for connection?

R. Only in the ten can you feel all kinds of delicate changes like fluctuations. Whether more or less, in what exactly, only when I am in a group. I cannot discover my attitude towards the Creator but only through my attitude to the group.

35. S. (49:21) In our time can we receive the subtle lights that come from our predecessors or only the lights of Nefesh?

R. We cannot receive the lights but only through the degrees, Nefesh, Ruach, Neshama, Haya, Yechida.

36. S. (49:49) When we feel separation in the ten should we read the book of Zohar for a few minutes and ask for connection?

R. Please. Choose some part of the Zohar and we can read it, I agree and for now let's go back to our text.

Reading 64

37. (50:15) Rav reads: There is an issue in the text itself because it’s in Aramaic and it’s not exactly like the Aramaic in the Zohar. We need to understand that Aramaic used to be the language which was spoken thousands of years ago. And today only books that are written in that language from those times, whoever studies knows. But we don’t need this first part that was written in Aramaic so I am reading only the part that we need. So 64. “Thus although it was obvious,” indeed our sages ask a question, what was the difference between the first and last generations and then he continues. “Even though the first generations are more important than the last generations…” It is because those who are scrutinized first meaning the first generations were more important, they were included first.

Nevertheless in respect, it all appears that they were selected to come first into the world but “nevertheless with respect to the wisdom of the Torah it is increasingly revealed in the later generations. This is so for the reason we have mentioned that the overall level is completed specifically by the latter ones. This is why more complete lights are drawn to them although their own essence is far worse.” What does he want to say? That as much as the last generation are worse and worse but because they enter into scrutiny with their big coarseness, with all the evil that is revealed in them, they can scrutinize more of that light that’s bestowing to them. That’s why their importance is by revealing the great light of Hochma, the internality of all of reality compared to the first generations. That although they felt in general all of reality, they felt it in a general way, easier, a lighter way, not in depth. Read this again.

Reading 64 again (53:37)

38. R. (54:30) So even though we are last and very low souls, we don’t have the close direct connection to the entire general system but we are on the lower part of the system. But still in our work we awaken the greatest lights in the entire system because we are the most coarse. This is why the lights come to us through all the system. And specifically by our work that we are in the lower third of the last 2000 of the system of the souls, by this we awaken the great lights in the system. All the great spiritual work of all the souls is completed specifically by us. This is why even though we really respect those high souls, like the ten of Rabbi Shimon, we in our work can complete the entire work and that is actually our importance.

39. S. (56:00) The souls with the great coarseness always appear in our world together with the high souls throughout all of history?

R. No. As we read now the souls descend according to let's say certain times. So there’s the first 2000 that comes the souls that belong to HBD, that’s the top third of the Partzuf of the souls. Then the next 2000, the souls that belong to HGT, the middle third of the Partzuf of the souls And then as we are now it’s the bottom third of the Partzuf of the souls, NHYM. And according to that the souls work and awaken and they are drawn to connection. So in the first 2000 that is where it was supposedly really easy to reach bestowing to the Creator because they are close these souls. It was easy for them to understand, feel and speak about it. The coarseness wasn’t concealing the great force of bestowal. But in the next two thousand and in the last two thousand it’s a big problem. Go and to talk to people and you’ll see how much they do not understand you and they do not want it and it is distant from their perception, their tendency and their feeling. This is our time.

40. S. (58:01) Before the introduction we were learning the Peace Article and there Baal HaSulam says under the subtitle The Wheel of the Transformation of Souls that the same souls reincarnate and appear in each and every generation. So how do we understand that?

R. It both happens. We’re speaking on behalf of the correction, that the souls are awakening from a certain coarseness. Of course, the same souls keep reincarnating and there’s the incorporation of the souls and the connection between them but it’s on behalf of the incarnations. On behalf of the corrections that’s how it takes place. That is why it’s written this and that.

S. So we do have something in common with those high souls?

R. We are connected to the same system. The question is how much can we use our place in order to help this entire system to ascend? So from the structure itself by us working on ourselves we also raise them.

41. S. (59:28) Can we say that the correction of the souls in the last generation is what gives the system a greater contrast? Something that is more conspicuous?

R. We who are doing our work, even if our actions seem tiny to us and we are investing a lot of time and efforts in order to make some kind of changes, it is all because we are the last, the most coarse. We are moving the entire system, the entire system. That’s why our work is difficult, it is very fundamental and it’s the most important. So on behalf of the refinement he says that there is no limit to the refinement of the first generations on one hand. On the other hand when we end the correction, the correction comes from us for all of creation. From our small corrections we draw the greatest lights from the Rosh of the system, the top part of the system and then the lights of Ein Sof go through the souls from the group of Rabbi Shimon and all those Kabbalists until it reaches us here. And on the way Baal HaSulam, Rabash, everybody and everybody also receive an addition from our work, and they ascend by us and also they aide us. We will talk about it how all the souls work and help. As it is written the righteous don’t have a rest, not in this world and not in the next.

42. S. (01:01:57) What is our role to scrutinize the hatred, the oppositeness from their Creator? What is our correction because we don’t feel others?

R. Our correction is by us connecting between us and performing in our ten concretely or in the ten which is in the entire world of Bnei Baruch as much as we can depict it as one ten, that we are as one man with one heart. That is our correction.

43. S. (01:02:42) In that work we constantly feel only the coarseness, hatred, rejection, we don’t have intention?

R. Because you are not working on the connection. From the above they’re revealing the place for you to work and you look at it as disturbances and not as a place to work. You need to be like the good worker that is happy that he has given work and that he can get into it in that work and invest himself there. And enjoy all of the malfunctions that he finds because then he can fix them, that is his art. And you start crying and running away.

S. Yes, those revelations are hard. So one who discovers hatred and all of these things, what should he ask for?

R. He just needs to ask for help. That he discovers when he can reach the connection with the others and from that connection to turn to the Creator in the right way, so he asks for help. He has everything, we have everything, we just do not do what we need. And the whole morning lesson we keep repeating the same complaints.

S. Help means that connection will be revealed in spite of whatever we feel?

R. Help means that what I ask that’s what I receive. If you ask for connection you’ll receive it. If you didn’t ask for it you won’t receive it. But if you didn’t ask you’ll get more and more problems in order to understand that connection is the main thing you need.

Reading Item 65 twice (01:04:50)

44. R. (01:06:35) Meaning that they performed actions of Mitzvot, Commandments in order to bestow in the final manner.

Reading Item 65 (01:06:48) “Since the act extends from…”

45. S. (01:07:38) What does it mean that the flavors of the Mitzvot extend from the lights in the Sefirot?

R. Yeah, so what’s the question?

S. Is that a feeling of bestowal?

R. Yes of course. What is a Mitzvah, commandment? It means that I take what I am commanded to do, what is revealed in me, some shattered desire to receive in order to receive and I correct it and use it in order to bestow. So this work of correcting the desire from in order to receive to in order to bestow that’s called a Mitzvah, commandment. Then in the corrected desire the light can be revealed called Torah. That is why all of our work is to perform the Mitzvot and reveal the Torah. That is called the work in Torah and Mitzvot.

S. So Tzimtzum, Masach and Ohr Hozer, restriction, screen and reflected light, is that always working with our intention?

R. Correct, of course, otherwise how could you fix your shattered desires if you don’t restrict them. That you don’t want to use them as they are, shattered, in order to receive and you demand the force to overcome them, to be in order to bestow or in faith above reason, in bestowal, in giving. Then you are already correcting your desire in order to bestow. Then according to the intention to bestow you can use that desire itself in order to bestow, that you receive it in order to bestow. Then the light can come to you that already fills you. So there is the light that bestows upon you during the correction called Torah and then afterwards there is the light that fills you and it is also called Torah. That’s it. The actions you do in order to fix your desire with the intention to bestow those actions are called Mitzvot, commandments because you are commanded to do it. Eventually all the commandment is that you have to correct your vessels that they will be in order to bestow, it’s when you ask for the force of bestowal from above. That is why all of our work is in prayer as we also learn.

46. S. (01:10:50) When you speak about lights practically, when the lower ones enter first, should I ascribe it to myself for the friends?

R. No, that does not belong to us. We have to look at it the way that he explains it, 2,000 2,000 2,000, HBD, HGT, NHY of the Partzuf of the souls. We are at the end. And before us the first two thousand were corrected then the second, and we are the end of the third two thousand, and do not get confused. Let go of all of those souls that were there and corrected themselves. They get an addition from our work. And they themselves also help us and they participate with us. That’s it.

47. S. (01:12:04) What in our work in the connection in the ten is called the practical part and what is called the secrets and flavors, Taamim of the Torah?

R. The practical part between us is connection. Between us we need to try and do all actions as much as possible that will cause our connection. Our connection takes place and in our interrelationships between us we add all kinds of actions into it also corporal, what we can do in this world. Let’s say, meals, all kinds of connections, mutual help, everything in order to reach the feeling that we are helping one another.

S. But if we don’t have any intention in all these deeds, no feeling, no intention, should we still do it?

R. So we need to reach that. Otherwise if you don’t build that ten you will not have where to discover the Creator. You will not have a place for it. Even if let's say you fall into some corrected ten. So you need to connect to them. Let’s say they work on you and you annul your ego with your intentions and you will have some kind of feeling that you are a baby in the upper ones hands. But to enter spiritual actions you can only do that if you are with them in an interaction, in mutual work, in connection, in completion.

S. So the question is should we continue doing things like meals and other such connections even if we still don’t have the right intention?

R. Yes, that is also really desired. Our problem is that maybe still because of the limitations of the virus we have more problems but I hope that it will be gone soon and we will be able to have meals and maybe even a big congress with everyone, and everyone from the whole world to us.

S. And then the intention will come afterwards? The intention, the prayer?

R. No it does not depend on such actions it all depends on how much we are drawn in our small groups here and there towards this mutual connection.

48. S. (01:15:25) We, the lowly souls, we have to draw the highest lights, so the effort we have to make is great. It seems to me like it is a very big obstacle, it is very frightening. How could we not give up? How can we overcome this fear?

R. You have everything you need. We are standing on the shoulders of the previous Kabbalists in the previous generations. We use everything that they left for us both in writings and the systems that they have corrected, and we are using these systems and therefore there is no problem. Our work, I wouldn't say that it is so much more difficult than what they did. We have to just do what is up to us and succeed and not to cry that we were born in such a time, such a generation that it’s harder for us to do what is up to us. Everything depends on how we correctly approach our work, the connection between us.

49. S. (01:17:32) You said that when hatred is revealed between us it’s a result of the connection and this hatred is given to us so we will be able to accept it as an area to work on, as an opportunity to accept it and keep growing. But we grasp it as an interference as a disturbance. Does the light we draw also..?

R. No, no, no. Don’t start developing some whole new teaching here, no. We discover how broken we are, that we can’t connect and come closer to each other. We have to see this as a result of the shattering and insist on that and connect, that’s it. What Rabash writes about the society, that’s what we need to do and we can’t escape it. I don’t have a choice now but to move to women from the internet.

50. S. (01:18:53) What is the wholeness that the lower ones have to come to?

R. To be as one man with one heart, as one soul, one mechanism. That no one will feel like he is detached from the others but rather we are all connected together in a single harmony. It’s something we cannot describe right now because we are looking at our bodies, but in truth it all just appears to us, it seems to us that we live in a world of bodies. When we’ll connect between us we’ll all be in a single desire, a single intention complimenting each other and the Creator fulfills us and by that we will feel the wholeness of creation.

51. S. (01:19:46) A generation through its work activates and somehow strengthens the higher souls?

R. Yes. All of the souls exist in a single system and all of the souls that completed the work in the first and second 2000 they rise by our work that we do in the third part of 2000 years. They help us in that we receive the lights through them and we help them because we join our desires to theirs.

52. S. (01:20:27) You said that coarseness is when I feel more and more separate from others and this is really what I feel. That thing is that it influences how I relate to my relatives which is less and less considerate. What can I do about it?

R. To lower your head. Bow your head and wish to connect in any conditions and see that all of these conditions are opposed towards me by the Creator.

53. S. (01:20:58) The lights that enter the vessels that are revealed first, how do we see it in our work? Do the lights enter the vessels that are revealed last? Do the lights enter them first?

R. No, there are lights that shape the vessels, these are surrounding lights. And the lights that enter the vessels enter them only on the condition that the vessels are qualified. That there is a will to receive with a Masach, with reflected light and then the light enters according to equivalence of form.

54. S. (01:21:46) How can we agree with our work being very important and we are low. How can we agree that we are so lowly?

R. It is like a baby that is born. What is the importance that it has? But to the parents it’s very important. And towards the world this new generation of babies that are born are actually the next generation, so they are most important. That they will grow and fill the world with the next generation and correct the world. So as it is said the littlest will be the greatest. That’s how we advance.

55. S. (01:22:36) How do we turn the disturbances in the work into joy in the ten?

R. It all depends on how we appreciate our work, who gives us our work and how much we want to relate ourselves to the Creator. That fact that I am in contact with Him all day and all night in a way that I don’t want to separate from Him, without cessation. That is what fills up my life.

56. S. (01:23:14) Where are all of the souls that have corrected themselves, why are they hidden from us?

R. They are hidden because they are in order to bestow and we are in order to receive. So we can’t feel the discernments that are in order to bestow.

57. S. (01:23:35) Can you give an example of a desire to receive that becomes a desire to bestow. How it is expressed?

R. Transform some of your will to receive to in order to bestow and you will have an example. That’s it.
