During the lesson, there will be workshops that Rav will be giving us. We will have three minutes to answer each of them. Let's start.

Reader: Hello, friends. Welcome to the lecture on November 12, 2020, on the topic of "Work with Faith Above Reason." We're going to begin with excerpt number nine. During the lesson, there will be workshops that Rav will be giving us. We will have three minutes to answer each of them.

M. Laitman: (01:22) When we want to advance on our spiritual path to the Creator we should never forget that our progress on the way to Him includes two states - moving away and coming closer, moving away and coming closer. Every day we should feel ourselves worse than before in relation to our connection, our closeness to each other, our yearning to connect. We are not eager for spirituality enough. This is on the one hand. On the other hand, we realise it, and we support each other, help each other. And while we feel the separation between us more than ever we also start working on our connection, to come closer and justify the Creator who gave us this separation, thus revealing for us more the shattering that He created as preparation for our ascent. And so each time we fall deeper to rise higher, next day we fall even more and rise more, every time. It turns out that spiritual advancement is measured not only by the ascents but mainly by descents. It is because we are used to them more. We can tell, as much as I'm rejected from the friends, that I don't want to see them, that I'm sick of them, or I feel tired, and I feel no taste in it, and so on, and so on. So, when we reveal a new state and a new day, according to this, we already understand that we are on a new degree. That is why “in our eyes will be as new” means that every new degree starts from darkness, from rejection, from not wanting anything. I have no longing, no drive. And I don't forget, I try not to forget and remind myself that this all surely comes from the Creator as a result of the shattering of Adam HaRishon. And I'm being shown my shattering, and this way, I'm advancing with each passing day.

First of all, in the feeling of the fall, of the rejection, of the helplessness - that's the first sign of advancement, that I received the heaviness of the heart, that's greater than yesterday. And the second sign for advancement, that was on the negative side, on the positive side - I understand that this is a good thing, and above this new rejection, this new darkness, I begin to bring light. And it's not light where I want to have closeness, nearing, and everything, no, I want the light of Hassadim, meaning even when darkness shines, I accept it as a correct thing, a good thing, as that which exists between the broken vessels. And I don't want to cancel the darkness, but rather above it to form connections, meaning above all crimes, love will cover them, the crimes remain, and love, the connection can be on top of the crimes. If the crimes disappear, there will be no place for love to exist. That's why we have to check how we exist in those two states together, both crimes and love, and between them, we'll begin to feel the coarseness, and the purity, reception, and bestowal. And in this way, the gap between the Creator and the created being appears, we created ourselves, and we'll begin to feel our life, our spiritual life. All of this is not so clear yet, but it's getting built in us with each passing day, and let's keep going. We're going to read a few excerpts according to that, and then try to talk about it in the workshop.

Reader: We are reading excerpt number nine from Rabash’s article 36 “What Is “For It Is Your Wisdom and Understanding in the Eyes of the Nations,” in the Work?”

Reading: (07:44) 9. Rabash. Article 36 (1989), “What Is “For It Is Your Wisdom and Understanding in the Eyes of the Nations,” in the Work?” - Twice

He should tell the nations of the world within him, “Know that everything you say is true. Reasonably speaking, you are correct, and I have nothing to reply to you. However, we were given the work above reason—that we must believe above reason that you are incorrect. And since the work on faith must be above reason, I thank you very much for your correct arguments that you have brought me, since it cannot be said that a person goes above reason unless he has reason and intellect. Then, it can be said that he is going above the intellect.

But when there is no reason, it cannot be said that he is going above reason. That is, “above reason” means that this path is more important than the path within reason. However, when there is no other way to tell him, “Walk in this path!” it cannot be said that he chooses the path of faith above reason. For this reason, precisely through the power of faith above reason is it possible to defeat the views of the nations of the world within man.

Question (Heb 10): (11:43) I didn't understand in the middle of the excerpt that if one has reason, then he can go above reason, but if he doesn't have reason, he cannot go above reason. What does it mean?

M. Laitman: If I have reason, an opinion, a fact, confidence, I understand, I see, I attain, I feel, it's like I feel things in my life, then I can go above it. I can go above it and say they have eyes, but they don't see. I mean, I have eyes, I see everything. Let's say that I'm not connected to the friends so much, not as advanced in the understanding of the material. I don't feel that I'm moving towards the Creator, and so on and so forth. All those parameters over which you can say that we are advancing in spirituality. This is on the side of reason, according to my intellect, what I can check with my mind. Meaning, I relate to it just like in our world, the way I relate to everything else, according to my feeling and my intellect, this is called within reason. Together with that, I have to bring myself to a feeling that's above the level of this world, above my normal mind and feeling, what I'm used to working with, to above reason. And above reason, means that I imagine myself and the world as I relate to them through the measure of bestowal. Whether I'm capable of it, I wish to live in quality, in the atmosphere and conditions, the lawfulness, that is all in bestowal. Let's say, in the group, it's the clearest. I see today in the group that we have no connection. I see it like that. Maybe they see it differently. But I have no relationship, no heart, no brain, no tendency towards connecting with the friends. So I'm saying, oh, I am suffering a burden of the heart today in my feelings, in my desires, in my thoughts. They're all dropped from the level I had them yesterday to state truly zero. I don't feel I belong to them, they belong to me.

That spiritual network between ten people that I have to build, that this will be my soul, where I will reveal in this Kli, the Creator, the upper world, the spiritual world, the eternal world, instead of that, I feel only myself, and through my beast, I feel how it feels, this beast. This means within reason, my own reason. Above my reason, means that if I will be incorporated in the friends, will try to be integrated in the Creator, through them, this will be above reason, above my reason. And that's how I should construct it. How do I construct above reason? I need to see myself in the quality of bestowal, the quality of connection, of love, where we're all connected, we're all connected in a Ten, and although I cannot see it, on that it says they have eyes, but they can't see. Right, we will not see it with our own eyes, spirituality, we will see it in those new qualities called Sefirot, Partzuf, and that's how I need to imagine it to myself. What kind of spiritual connection do we have between us, if, for example, we can come to it, and I need to do with everything I've got, I need to try and establish those connections, those inclinations, those relationships, as if we are on a spiritual level, in faith above reason. So the reason that I feel is what my body is giving me. My body is giving me a new reason each time, and I need to raise myself above it, above it all the time. That's our work, and by doing more and more of those shorties and those steps, I'll begin to feel reason and above reason, and this will be the gap between two spiritual degrees. Also in my reason, what I feel in my body, I'll begin to relate to that spiritually as coming from the Creator.

The Creator is arranging for me daily such a feeling to, such an attitude to reality, and later I'll begin to discern and feel that this world that I'm seeing is also an imaginary world, it's what the Creator is depicting for me. I don't exist in the world, all those things are here because the Creator is awakening in me a certain corporeal Reshimo, in order to receive, that exists, and I feel reality in this way, and I want to rise above it and build for myself a new view in the world of bestowal, love, and connection, and in this way I try to rise from within reason to above reason, in each and everything that I encounter in my life, especially with the group, the Ten during the lessons, during the workshops, when I'm in contact with the people who are with me on this path.

Question (Rehovot): (18:55) Is the explanation in this quote the reason for why you justify in your explanation the anti-semitic claims of the nations of the world?

M. Laitman: We're not talking about it. Why are you asking things we are not speaking of? Why are you ruining for all your friends the understanding of what we're saying?

Question (PT 24): (19:20) Baal HaSulam determined that the only sin is the disconnection from the Creator. We should not be disconnecting from the Creator even for a moment. Is it the same as faith above reason?

M. Laitman: Above all, I always try to hold on to bestowal, a connection between us. I want to discover the power of the Creator in it. If my direction is correct, then I get closer to it. Or maybe I already discovered it. It all depends on how much effort I put into it. And then I'm coming closer to it. Or maybe I'm seeing it. It all depends on the effort that I'm able to introduce into it, and that's how we advance. Precisely, in above reason, where we wish to establish the quality of bestowal, which is the foundation for the revelation of the Creator.

Student: Are these two separate categories? There is none else besides Him in above reason? Or is it really the same thought?

M. Laitman: Later, it appears as one, where there is none else besides Him. He is the source, the origin, the reason for the state. And above reason is the result of my vessels.

Question (PT 22): (21:10) When I say they have eyes but see not, the whole world is inside of me. So does it mean that in fact my eyes do not see?

M. Laitman: It depends on how you determine it. It could be my eyes, it could be that I'm saying it about everyone else. It's your state, you determine it. Ultimately, Torah speaks of one person, which is me. And the others, I see them because I include them as parts of my qualities, parts of my soul.

Question (Focus Group): (22:15) I am sitting here with my friends in the Ten, I look at them and understand that I see them in my desire to receive. How do I move to this higher world?

M. Laitman: You build relationships with your friends so that they are in bestowal. So that each one of you, as far as he understands, is detached from his ego and wants to interweave with his friends. So that you can bring them closer to connection. This is the spiritual reality that you begin to build.

Student: What am I doing with my friends here to get out of this corporeal reality?

M. Laitman: You're doing this internally, within yourself, that you want to bring them closer with all your powers. You want to bring them closer to an opinion, even though there are many opinions, but to one direction. That all the opinions lead to one desire, of connection, and to a higher power that you want to discover within the connection. This is what you hope will happen. And when it happens, you will begin to discover spirituality. This is in front of you. Only one action. Connection between us. The connection between us, which can be only in mutual bestowal above each and every one's ego. And then, we reveal the area for the revelation of the Creator.

Question (Kyiv 1): (24:10) Corporeally, when we are included in the friends, after we are corporeally included in the friends, we acquire the spiritual vision. What do we see with our spiritual vision?

M. Laitman: We see in the spiritual world, we discover there the Creator that dwells in us the force of bestowal and love. And then, in that force of bestowal and love we discover even more, something called the light of Hochma.

Student: This is when I connect with the friends and I see how this force is filling us up as individuals, or as one thing that exists between us?

M. Laitman: No, you can't imagine it right now and everything you portray will be incorrect. You'll do what the Kabbalists are saying, and they twist you and confuse you intentionally. They speak as if unclearly, so you will activate the forces of your soul and grow in this way. You also don't give your child something that will be 100% clear and prepared. You want him to participate a little bit, to try to build and to discover and to make efforts. So, don't expect me to give you answers where I can't give you clear answers. Since you have no preparation for them, you won't be able to understand them. So, questions are questions. I understand you wish to receive a ready-made, but a ready-made can be only after a preparation on your part. Okay, let's read it again.

Reader: Reading excerpt number 9 again.

Re-Reading: (26:03) 9. Rabash. Article 36 (1989), “What Is “For It Is Your Wisdom and Understanding in the Eyes of the Nations,” in the Work?”

M. Laitman: Let's have a short workshop. How are we building the degree of above reason from within what we're feeling? Please. How do we build, how do we construct the degree of above reason from what we're feeling? Please go ahead.

Workshop: (28:18) How do we build, how do we construct the degree of above reason from what we're feeling?

M. Laitman: The most important thing about those things is for us to remain constantly in connection with the Creator. So, during the descent when we feel only ourselves in this world. And these relationships were also connected with the Creator, we try to begin to connect to Him, then we want to rise in faith above reason. So in that, we feel the need for the Creator, and we constantly turn to Him, and we ask, how do we feel ourselves all the time? In accents, in descents, it doesn't matter the states, the transitions between them, we're constantly in contact with the Creator. Through my words, through my prayer, I'm constantly speaking to Him. Let's portray that to ourselves.

Workshop: (32:40)

Reading: (35:47) 10. Baal HaSulam. Shamati 13, “A Pomegranate” There is emptiness only in a place where there is no existence, as in “The earth hangs on nothing.” You find that what is the measure of the filling of the empty place? The answer is, according to one’s elevation of oneself above reason. This means that the emptiness should be filled with exaltedness, meaning with above reason, and to ask of the Creator to give him that strength. This will mean that all the emptiness was created, meaning it comes to a person to feel this way—that he is empty—only in order to fill it with the Romemut of the Creator. In other words, one is to take everything above reason.

This is the meaning of the verse, “God has made it that He will be feared.” This means that these thoughts of emptiness come to a person in order for one to have a need to take upon himself faith above reason. And for this we need the help of the Creator. It follows that at that time, one must ask the Creator to give him the power to believe above reason.

It turns out that it is precisely then that one needs the Creator to help him, since the exterior mind lets him understand the opposite. Hence, at that time, one has no other choice but to ask the Creator to help him.

It is said about this, “One’s desire overcomes him every day; and were it not for the Creator, he would not overcome it.”

M. Laitman: So, we're going to have a simple exercise. Let us ask the Creator to help us. Each and every one is trying to assemble, compile, a sentence with which he turns to the Creator with a request for help.

Workshop: (38:41) Let’s ask the Creator to help us. Each one strings a sentence together where they are turning to the Creator and asking for help.

M. Laitman: Okay, let's ask a few friends if there are any questions. The internet today is not working so well, there are problems all over the world with our connections, let's hope you hear us well now, as I understand, and hopefully we can also receive questions from you.

Question (ITA 4): (42:24) We connect with the Creator in the state of descent, when I only feel myself, what should I do then, should I fulfill the desires that appear in me, or just connect with the friends?

M. Laitman: During the descent, I feel myself in this world, in states of, like an animal, I don't care about anything, nothing is important, or I might understand that I'm in those states where I have no bestowal, no faith, no connection, no inclination, for my heart is not excited to be among the friends. These are all symptoms of a descent, and I have to worry about what will be, although I worry without a worry. This is called a prayer before a prayer. I don't have a deficiency, I can stay like that, like an animal all the time, but I have the knowledge that I am not in the good state, I am not in the spiritual state. That's why we are always included in the intellect and the feeling. If the feeling is dead, at least my mind can tell me where I am at, and then I begin to awaken myself using my mind. And then I connect more, I activate myself more mechanically, without any feeling, in various ways, and I also start to read some articles or something, or psalms. I begin to turn to the friends, although my heart is not in it, but I obligate myself to do so, and then gradually I awaken the reforming light, surrounding lights, or even though I don't have such a great desire for it, but even in the words that I'm uttering, it starts to shine on me. And gradually, I wake up with more and more feeling. I hear what the friends are saying, and then envy, lust, craving, honor. I envy them, they awaken me. And that's how I wake up, and I come to feel. And the more we advance, the more we will feel disconnected, and we'll need to raise ourselves from a deeper pit to a higher degree. This is our work, until we begin to feel the descents and ascents from the point of view of spiritual feelings. Disconnection from society and the Creator, and connection to society and the Creator.

Question (ITA 3): (46:07) In spirituality, the more one loves, the more he wants to love. So, in which Kelim does this happen?

M. Laitman: In the vessels of my will to receive. I don't have any other vessels. Only the will to receive. It can have the intention to receive, it can be the intention to bestow. For now, the intention to receive. I don't have any other vessel. The will to receive is the Kli. From here to eternity.

Question (Tel Aviv 2): (46:48) There is a strong sensation of resistance when the friends are speaking in the workshop. Is this my reason?

M. Laitman: What does it mean, is that your reason? The fact that you hear the friends and you object to it, it only testifies to how much you have a negative attitude towards them, a negative one. If you would love them, then whatever they would say, even speaking seemingly in a bad way, you would still accept it with love. That's it. Love covers all crimes. That is, even if they would be corrupted, bad, not understanding, nevertheless, you would relate to them with love.

Student: And this is my plea to the Creator in this state?

M. Laitman: If you build within it an appeal to the Creator, then yes, if you link it to the Creator, if you start to understand that it is the Creator who is arranging it for you, it's not that the friends are behaving this way, but rather ultimately the Creator is establishing for you this way of seeing reality. So then how will you turn to the Creator? After I told you that, that it is the Creator who is establishing it, now try to think how you turn to the Creator.

Question (Zafon 2): (48:20) What is the correct prayer, the precise prayer in the work?

M. Laitman: The right, precise prayer is that it comes out of the depth of the heart, the bottom of the heart. Only that, it doesn't matter what the prayer is and where it is aimed. This you cannot know precisely, but you try, you long to extract it from the bottom of the heart.

Question (PT 6): (48:52) What determines if we'll be able to ascribe everything in reality to the Creator?

M. Laitman: That it is considered that you are in adhesion with Him.

Student: What determines our success? What are the conditions for succeeding in it?

M. Laitman: If you adhere to Him, it is a sign that you are already in Him and you start to develop as an Ubar, embryo.

Question (Zafon 4): (49:22) I feel as if I have no satisfaction in my corporeal life. I hate him. On the other hand I see I have no fulfillment, but I see the Creator is placing before me new desires that are growing stronger, taking over me. On the other hand, in the Ten, I don't feel it is getting balanced. I have no fulfillment in the lessons, in the work, or anything. The question is, what do I have to ask in that state? Do I have to keep that inner tension?

M. Laitman: You should ask that your connection with the group, your appreciation to the group, will be greater than towards your corporeal life. That's it.

Question (ITA 3): (50:19) Sometimes, when we are in a descent, the friends in the Ten or in the group, they leave. How can we understand that the friends are in a descent and bring them back inside and do the work together?

M. Laitman: This is group work, and you need to talk about it, and you need to take care of it. By what? By talking about it together, praying together, because all in all, it is the Creator who is bringing you this indication, so that you will understand that your situation, you're not able to hold the people inside. You need to be a lot more connected.

Question (Toronto 2): (51:20) What is the shortest path for each friend to reach the deficiency, you've called the depth of the heart, the bottom of the heart?

M. Laitman: The bottom of the heart is the deficiency in which I feel all the friends are connected together, and from there, we pray together to the Creator. There, at the bottom of the heart, we find our contact with the Creator. We, together, all of us. This is considered the bottom of the heart. Specifically, our heart, our feeling, it happens in our desire. This is what the Creator created, and this is why there, we have contact with Him.

Question (PT 35): (52:18) How to constantly be in prayer, how not to let go of that? To get up in the morning, the decision to be in prayer for the friends, always, always, just not the prayer.

M. Laitman: Enough, enough. Half a sentence is enough for me to understand it. It's only on the condition that you're connected together, and the prayer is what we call a prayer in the public, a public prayer.

Question (ITA 4): (52:56) When you say we should go above reason, does this happen to us through a process that stems out of our nature? Our nature takes 90%, and we're not ready enough. So the spiritual part in which we should try to go above reason, that only occupies 10%. So how with this 10% be able to defeat the 90% of our nature, and will give us a constant state above reason?

M. Laitman: This happens on the condition that you should imagine to yourself that the Creator is revealed in our world, in the connection between us, and how would you behave then? That way. Do it that way.

Question (PT 6): (53:50) What reward is most desirable to imagine, to portray, so we'll be able to coerce ourselves, as we said?

M. Laitman: To feel the love between us, and in it we will feel our connection with the Creator.

Question (Kyiv 1): (54:11) You gave us an assignment to build a prayer ten minutes ago. We tried to do it, and I see that one prayer, one friend is asking for the friend, the second one is grateful. Within reason, I understand that we are asking for different things. How to build a common prayer above reason?

M. Laitman: If you are speaking about the connection of the group and the connection with the Creator. It doesn't matter with which words and what precisely you are asking for in your appeal, the most important that it is in this direction: connection between us and with the Creator. All right, we should move on.

Reader: Excerpt 11 from Shamati 14, “What is the exaltedness of the Creator?

Reading: (55:00) 11. Baal HaSulam. Shamati 14. “What Is the Exaltedness of the Creator?”

The Romemut [exaltedness/sublimity] of the Creator means that one should ask the Creator for the strength to go above reason. This means that there are two interpretations to the Romemut of the Creator:

1. To not be filled with knowledge, which is intellect with which one can answer one’s questions. Rather, he wants the Creator to answer his questions. It is called Romemut because all the wisdom comes from above and not from man, meaning that man can answer his own questions.

Anything that one can answer is regarded as answering everything with the external mind. This means that the will to receive understands that it is worthwhile to observe Torah and Mitzvot [commandments]. However, if the above reason compels one to work, it is called “against the opinion of the will to receive.”

2. The greatness of the Creator means that one becomes needy of the Creator to grant his wishes. Therefore:

1. One should go above reason. Then one sees that he is empty and becomes needy of the Creator.

2. Only the Creator can give him the strength to be able to go above reason. In other words, what the Creator gives is called “The Romemut of the Creator.”

M. Laitman: So, we need to first of all, attain to some degree that There is None Else Besides Him. All of the desires and deficiencies that we have, all the states that we go through, it all comes from the Creator only, and only our appeal to the Creator from all the states that we go through, that appeal elevates us in the right way above these questions towards the Creator. That is, to constantly be connected with the upper force, that He is the first, He is doing, establishing all of the states for us, and He is the last. He should also deliver us from all of these states that He gave us towards Him, more and more and more. And in the middle, it's us, all in all, between us, we need to connect, and out of our connection that we will turn to Him. This really is our work.

Question (Baltia 1): (58:19) What does it mean that the Creator will answer me?

M. Laitman: That I feel that I already have a connection, an interaction with Him. This is called, I to my Beloved, and my Beloved to me, and this way, I begin to speak with Him. “I” is Malchut, through all of my friends who are the first nine, the first nine Sefirot, and through that, I turn to Him. It is called that I turn to Him, and through all of my friends, through the whole group, I feel how He is answering me. This is precisely our connection with the Creator. Through the friends, through the group, through the first nine Sefirot, I turn to the Creator, and through that, I also receive an answer from Him. This is why it is impossible for me to turn to the Creator by myself. It simply doesn't work. A single Sefira cannot turn and have contact with the Creator, but rather when it connects, to the extent that it connects to all the other Sefirot, the other friends to that extent it can turn to the Creator. And according to the intensity of the connection with the friends, I amplify my connection with the Creator. And this is how it works. Therefore, when is the Creator concealed? When does He disconnect from us? He simply elevates our desire a little bit, and then we disconnect from each other, and already we have no connection between us, and to the same extent with the Creator. When do we reach a connection with the Creator? When we connect between us, and then we start to feel how we also connect with Him. Only in such a way. This is how it works. Think about it more. The more you think about it, the more and more that it exists in us, it starts to be felt in us, we establish ourselves in such a way.

Question (Volga): (01:00:53) It's very confusing to me, the topics of a prayer to the Creator, a request, a plea. As much as I can, I depict this connection with the friends, the unity with the friends, the state of describing this connection. Is this a plea to the Creator?

M. Laitman: Whom are you turning to? If you somehow depict to yourself your connection with the friends, but where is your connection with the Creator? Through the friends. Together with the friends. How do you depict the Creator? That He is filling up everything, manipulating everything, He is the reason for everything, He is the result of everything. This is what you have to portray to yourself, that this is how it exists before you, and therefore, you connect with the friends in order to establish your connection with Him.

Question (KabU 2): (01:02:07) Is there some kind of parameter about how long the descent needs to last? Must it last an hour, a week, a month?

M. Laitman: A descent might be only for a moment. If it is prolonged more than a moment, it is a sign that it is in our will to receive, and it is holding it, holding this descent, and it is not allowing it to work. That's it, because our will to receive, it stretches time. If we overcome our will to receive, time becomes shorter, until it becomes only a point. But if we do not fight with the will to receive, then it stretches the time, and time becomes more prolonged. Therefore, all of our work is, as much as we connect between us, and we reach being above reason, above the reason of each one, to a connection, to a single faith, a single faith.

Student: It's very, very common for us to hold on to a problem. We almost don't recognize it, and it just lives in our head for a long time.

M. Laitman: This must not be. We should, as quickly as possible, try to rise above the problem to the Creator, because He brings us the problems in order for us to turn to Him. This should be like ping-pong. The Creator brings down the ball, the ball is in our hand. How do we, in return, throw the ball back to Him? And again to us, and we again to Him. This means to be partners. It all depends on how much we feel ourselves as an elite unit, a commando, standing on one side of this field of play. Let's say that we are playing volleyball, and the Creator is on the one side and we, the entire team, is on the other side. That's it. So, if we work together, then precisely at that moment, we can toss the ball back to him. And then by that… and this is enough for us in order to get the mind and feeling from Him, once we touch the ball. And if it's more than a touch, then it's already a Klipa, a shell.

Question (Bulgaria ): (01:05:34) The connection in the Ten takes place only in faith above reason?

M. Laitman: Yes, the right connection can be only above reason, above our ego. When we connect between us only because the Creator wants us to connect in order to give him contentment. It's like little children that we want to give a good mood to mommy. So, we connect between us. We stop fighting in order to give Him contentment. That's it. Let's depict it this way, between us. We are already grown-ups, and we can depict these things. Let's be good children.

Question (Tel Aviv 10): (01:06:39) I didn't understand the difference between the two definitions of exaltedness.

M. Laitman: Which two definitions of exaltedness?

Student: One and two. I didn't understand the difference between these two explanations.

M. Laitman: Well, you have to read it a few times. I can't get into it once again now. Read it a few times, and maybe ask tomorrow.

Question (Beer Sheva): (01:07:09) The question is, do we need to yearn for the plea to the friend, for the friend, or for the answer from the Creator, or is that one and the same?

M. Laitman: We should prepare the friends in between them, in the connection, in order to get answers from the Creator, so that we will feel in the connection between us the answer from the Creator. I have nothing to ask the friends. I only want to connect with them more, and more, and more, and by that, we can help one another. But in relation to the connection, and inside the connection, we will start to feel the upper mind, faith, the degree of faith above reason.

Question (PT 18): (01:08:09) When I am in love with my wife, if she hits me, I get choked up, I cry. If she gives me, if she embraces me, I get choked up, and I cry. That's when I'm fully in love. How can you bring it up to the level of the conversation and not being choked from the relationship?

M. Laitman: No, we nevertheless need to leave it at the level of the relationship, and then to see how much we are impressed from the disconnection as well as from the connection, and to try that the feeling from the connection and the feeling from disconnection, they both come to us from the Creator. Try to understand it this way and to feel it. And it's not that I have some relation with people in this world, but rather, this is how the Creator is arranging it for me. This is what I need to try to do.

Question (PT 18): (01:09:29) Why is there salt in tears, which is the spice of Torah, why is there salt in our tears?

M. Laitman: The salt in the tears is a result of the covenant of the salt. You can read about it, then you will understand why the tears are salty.

Student: Yes, I love the friends like salt.

Question (ITA 4): (01:10:09) Now you explained that we shouldn't fight the will to receive. It purifies time. Can you explain that? How do we come to that explanation?

M. Laitman: Again. Repeat, please.

Student: You said not to fight the will to receive because it prolongs the time. What does it mean? How can we come there?

M. Laitman: I don't want to change any sensation. Not the bad, not the good. I just want to ascribe it to the correct state. Because whatever I feel, I feel it from the Creator. Through the Ten, through the entire world, through the Kli of Adam HaRishon, it doesn't matter. But it all comes to me in a directed way, personally, from the Creator Himself. This is why I just need to see how I respond to it correctly. Each and every moment, how do I respond correctly to the Creator, who actually is establishing in me each sensation, every moment in life. I have to constantly be in such a state. Whatever I feel, whatever I understand, whatever happens inside of me, whatever happens around me, it is all the Creator portraying it to me, establishing it for me, this reality. And how should I respond to Him? And I need to try to respond to Him as if I were with complete faith. And through such exercises, I come closer to Him quickly. I already understand that I have to be connected with the Ten, that I have no problem but only to be connected with them, and through them, to constantly be connected to the Creator. And to depict ourselves, the entire Ten, that we are inside of the Creator. This is considered that we are entering Ibur, conception in Him. We start to be like inside the uterus, the womb, and we start to develop there. That is, all our thoughts, all our desires, everything that is happening to us, it all comes from Him. And we, each and every moment are grateful to it, we're aware of it, and we want to be even more and more connected in heart and mind with Him. That's it. This is considered that we are developing the degree of faith above reason, above our desire. Our desire pushes us away from each other. Our desire is hiding from us the upper force in which we exist. And we try to constantly determine ourselves specifically that we are all together inside of Him.

Question (Ashkelon 3): (01:13:55) Connection of the faith between us is also the power that comes from the Creator. So, in the volleyball example, it turns out the Creator is playing with Himself?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Question (Haifa 1): (01:14:26) And the advantage of the land is everywhere. We don't know what is the future feeling of the hatred of separation.They say it's a degree you have to be rewarded with. Maybe we can read this article.

M. Laitman: Sure, go ahead, find this article. We can read it, but it would be even better if you do it in the group, in the Ten, throughout the day. I'm sure you have a meeting of the Ten, so read it, if everybody agrees to it. The advantage of the land.

Question (Nikolaev-Sochi): (01:15:04) It turns out that it's easiest to turn to the Creator from the extremely polarized states. On the one hand, joy and gratitude, or conversely, problems and despair when we cry to Him. The rest of the time is spent on checking, testing. We have these interactions, feedback with the Ten. I check myself there. How to shorten the testing time? We can't always connect physically.

M. Laitman: Well, for this, you don't have to be physically connected, but rather it's enough if you're constantly drawn to the connection between you. You're drawn to the connection between you constantly, more and more, until each and every one starts to feel that he is connected to the Ten, that he's inside of the Ten, and in such a way, we truly establish ourselves there until even the Creator is revealed there. The direction is the connection between us towards connection with the Creator. And for that, you don't need to talk so much, but rather if you just know this thing, then you have to determine it in the morning throughout the entire day that you are going to be thinking about it, and a few times every hour, and you simply...

Reader: Friends, now we'll have a short workshop to summarize everything we heard from Rav and the lesson.

Reader: We'll move it to the next part of the lesson. Before that, we'll sing a song.

Song: (01:22:51)
