Part 3: Conversation with Rav 12/25/2025

Reader: We'll hear a conversation with Rav on the topic of “To be Representative of the Group Relative to the Creator” from December 25th.

Student: We have a question. If Rav offers you a cigarette and you don't smoke, do you start to smoke?

M. Laitman: No, a person gives the other one something that seems to him as good. It seems to him to be good for him. So, if he knows that by doing it, by this he would truly harm him, he wouldn't give it to him.

Student: Can it be that you don't know exactly what the other person wants, but you want to do good to him?

M. Laitman: No, no, no. If he's asking, but if I see that this is how it is, that's a different story.

Student: Okay. This week you said in one of the recorded lessons, “I have to be a representative of the group towards the Creator. I'll constantly worry about that. I feel that's myself responsible, not merely prayer for the friends, but to be responsible for everyone from the side of the good, the side of the bad, to be the representative toward the Creator. You are responsible.” The question is, what does it mean that a person is responsible? Responsible in what? An individual person responsible over something? What kind of responsibility does he truly have?

M. Laitman: But in his work, opposite the group, opposite the friends, he tries to bring them closer to the Creator.

Student: Okay. So each friend relative to the rest of the friends in the Ten, he has to worry about bringing them closer to the Creator. That's his responsibilities toward them?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: And each one toward all the other friends, mutually?

M. Laitman: I don't know about that, but you're asking about someone?

Student: How to bring them closer to the Creator?

M. Laitman: To awaken them. To awaken them towards the Creator. So, each and every one will start thinking in this direction of how much does he push the group towards the Creator.

Student: Now, what is the job of the Ten? What is the role of the Ten, it's responsibility in order to awaken the other Tens in the group which he's part of?

M. Laitman: It's the same.

Student: What does it mean that now a Ten is responsible for the rest of the Tens?

M. Laitman: That it awakens the other Tens to wake up and be drawn to the Creator.

Student: And that's how it works, in circles? Let's say, Petah Tikva relative to the World Kli, and each group in the World Kli toward the others?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: Another question, what is a healthy Ten?

M. Laitman: A healthy Ten, when they always have a spirit of connecting around the Creator.

Student: How can the society help sick Tens, where there's not enough people, or they're late, or they don't show up, all kinds of problems? You don't feel the strong connection from them.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: So, what can we do relative to these Tens? We need to awaken them. There is nothing here that is artificial, but that's it, to truly awaken.

Student: Everything with external example? That's the meaning of awaken: inner prayer and external example?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: And what about actually treating a sick Ten, for a healthy Ten to approach a sick Ten? Do we have such a situation?

M. Laitman: Yes, that too.

Student: There's room to interfere with the Ten and help them?

M. Laitman: It's not that there is room, there is an obligation.

Student: Today in the lesson there was a table next to us, and a friend sat there alone, only one by himself, the entire Ten did not show up. Sometimes there's two or three and the rest of the Ten doesn't show up. How to help them in such a situation?

M. Laitman: We need to awaken them, to awaken. Where do you bring this spirit to the society that will give this new fire? Sometimes there's a feeling with friends that life becomes a rut, a routine, this fatigue. How do you suddenly introduce a spark, just like the first day you came to the path?

M. Laitman: It depends on who you're incorporated with, it's up to the person.

Student: It's the group that you're incorporated with, meaning in the group we're incorporated, there's everything, right? It's up to me.

M. Laitman: It's up to you, it depends on you.

Student: Let's say, I started to work on dissemination, but someone who just started to study. How much efficiency, how much excitement, and you have to do, you know, I haven't felt like this in such a long time. Like a child, he's getting excited with everything, and you have the strength to, you know, he points, let's go this way, let's do this, and you have already done everything, but he brought this livelihood. And I said, “Whoa, I want to be like this, I want to be like a child in my inner work.” Where do you bring these new forces of revival, so things will just light up like that?

M. Laitman: Look at the others.

Student: If I look, and I don't see what is there to be envious of them? They're there, maybe inside they have a whole world, but on the outside, everything is relaxed. What can you take from there? What can you draw from there?

M. Laitman: This is a problem.

Student: So, do I have to tell myself a story? An entire narrative that the friend is in the end of correction, and I'm not, and I... to try to draw the forces from him, or what? I need a practical example. Friends are sitting here right now, they're sitting, they're relaxed, everything is good. What can I get from there? Or I tell myself a story that I have what to receive, and it has nothing to do with them. It's in how I tell myself this story, or I need to see something to ignite me?

M. Laitman: You need to try to lift yourself.

Student: Rav, in which state Rabash said that it's better for a person to leave, to go out and enjoy the pleasures of this world?

M. Laitman: I don't remember.

Student: Do you remember what I'm talking about?

M. Laitman:To which degree a person should...

Student: No, no, no.

M. Laitman: So, what's the question?

Student: When Rabash told someone, you know, at least go and enjoy the pleasures of this world.

M. Laitman: Ah, yes.

Student: Either you're already in Kabbalah, go for it all the way, or go and have a life, there's nothing in the middle.

M. Laitman: Yes, go enjoy.

Student: Which state was he referring to when he said it?

M. Laitman: I don't know. The state of an ordinary person.

Student: Because those simulations, temptations of the will to receive that awaken a person, they're always there. After all, a person lives in this world until he reaches something, with the help of the Creator, comes to a place where he's drawn and he's connected to the life in the Ten.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: It's a great miracle. And this state where Rabash... When we say that Rabash tells a person, “Go, enjoy.” If a Person doesn't feel connection to the Creator, he doesn't have a feeling of inner work, Rabash tells him, at least go and enjoy what's on the outside.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: The question is, on which conditions do you let loose a person like that, to go and enjoy? Why not influence him, reinforce the importance of the goal? He came here, he's already here.

M. Laitman: If he has such an environment, then certainly he needs to connect to it.

Student: If he loses his strength, his forces, he loses power, loses connection.

M. Laitman: He should enter an environment that can awaken him.

Student: So nevertheless, he needs to want to enter such an environment. Why am I asking? Because earlier when the friends said, “Look, a friend is sitting alone around by the table, or two or three friends, only two or three friends show up.” If you look back, these friends had another seven, eight friends around them, at least.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: Gradually, all kinds of things happened. Everybody feels justified. There was a necessity at work, necessity at home, all kinds of stories. A person gradually diminished his presence, diminished his presence with us. And I'm constantly asking myself, what can we do? I'm sure that each one is doing the maximum. Look how many resources invest in the factory to awaken, and the awakening team, and the social team. There are many friends who really care about it, but nevertheless, when a person comes to a place, they say, as if he ran out of batteries.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: So what do you do?

M. Laitman: We awaken him. We connect to him, and we supply him with power.

Student: If the Creator runs everything, and in the end, it's the root of a soul that comes to study Kabbalah.

M. Laitman: If the Creator manages everything, then all that's left for me is to go into bed and fall asleep.

Student: It's not right? The Creator holds a person like a magnet. He lets him go and I will become...

M. Laitman: No, I mean, how do you know it's like that? Because you said so?

Student: Meaning, this is not my calculation, anyone's calculation. A Person has to... A Person should awaken.

M. Laitman: Awaken, yes.

Student: And then do everything in his power?

M. Laitman: Yes. Seemingly remove the Creator from the action. Do everything in his power to do.
