Fear - Selected Excerpts from the sources. #4

1. Rav’s Introduction: Go ahead and read you will do a better job than me and I’ll talk.

Reading (00:35) “ In His Treasury the Creator has only the treasure…”

2. R. (02:43) Yes, there are no questions this is a very important excerpt in his treasury the Creator has only the treasure of fear of heaven yet we should interpret what fear is fear is as is the Kli this means that want to receive from the Creator to discover something of spirituality it is all revealed only in fear so what is this fear so he says that the treasure the treasury is made of this Kli meaning that we receive the whole of spirituality everything that is in reality is received in a vessel called fear and all the important things are placed in this vessel which means that spirituality should be important and I opposite that place the vessel called fear that even though spirituality is very important for me however I receive it only in order to bestow and not for myself because imagine to yourself that you received let's say some things that are very important for you but you make a calculation and a preparation that you are not receiving it for yourself how not simple it is how difficult it is they Baal HaSulam says he said that fear as it is written about Moses the reward for, and Moses hit his face for he was afraid to look, was that he was rewarded with the image of the Lord, the image of the Lord he did behold, fear refers to one’s fear of the great pleasure that is there that is given that he will not be able to receive it in order to bestow that on the way his will to receive your push him to steal to take for himself and he won’t be able to withstand it meaning that he's under the influence of two forces on the one hand it is fear on the other hand the great will to receive who will win and the person is in the middle he doesn’t know what to do he truly who guarantees that he will not steal which one of us anyone of us who is already who already has some awareness of his will to receive he knows that a person cannot promise anything if the will to receive rises the person steals if the will to bestow or the importance of the Creator rises then the person can stand and resist it he can activate the force of overcoming all in all it’s a calculation of who is greater and who is lesser and again the fear means that he's afraid of the great pleasure that is there that he will not be able to receive it in order to bestow so that he’ll receive it not for himself but pass it on and the reward for this for having had fear is that thus he has made for himself a Kli in which to receive the upper abundance this means that there is the matter of discovering the pleasure the great pleasure and not receiving it for oneself and instead of it there is the reward and this is man's work and besides that we attribute everything to the Creator only this point is important yet it is not so with fear because the meaning of fear is not to receive what the Creator gives He gives only to receive this is the meaning of, everything is in the hands of Heaven except the fear of Heaven, meaning that from the Creator comes the desire from the Creator comes the filling and the person should in everything possible needs to defend to protect himself so as not to receive the filling inside of the will to receive directly in order to receive to receive it this is the Kli that we need this is man’s work and decides that we attribute everything to the Creator meaning only this point this calculation that whatever is revealed I have to receive it only in order to bestow and not for myself yet it is not so with fear because the meaning of fear is not to receive and what the Creator gives He gives only to receive and this is the meaning of, everything is in the hands of heaven except the fear of heaven, this is the Kli that the need otherwise we will be considered fools a fool as our sages said, who is a fool he who is loses what he is given so what the Creator gives we will lose it if we do not receive it in order to bestow this means that the Sitra Achra the other side will take the abundance from us that comes from the Creator if we cannot aim in order to bestow because then it goes to the vessels of reception it's good to the vessels of reception then it goes to the vessel of reception which is Sitra Achra and Tumaa, impurity.

3. S. (09:31) Usually we call it the restriction, the screen, and the reflected light and suddenly it’s called fear, what’s the difference, what’s the uniqueness here?

R. Restriction, screen and reflected light are the forces that we activate, fear is what we feel, that's it, so you have an action, and you have the impression from the action.

4. S. (10:10) How to conceal that face, to not to look at the Creator and with that reveal Him?

R. We need to do exercises many exercises in the group and try more and more first of all try to do it towards the friends and try to do such exercises as though you are receiving some abundance and you resist it and instead of it you reach the revelation of the Creator because the fact that you received the revelation of the Creator not in order to receive by this you actually prepare yourself for the reception of the abundance that if you will not receive the abundance then you can also discover the Creator and it will not be in order to receive.

5. S. (11:30) If I understand correctly for fear we need first the greatness of the Creator and behind the we need the recognition of evil and then you can build something and that’s how, You have helped me from before and behind, and that framework where you have ahead of you the greatness of the Creator and behind you the recognition of evil?

R. Well you can say that yes you can say that.

6. S. (12:15) In the ten we read this excerpt yesterday and the question came up, it is written that fear is the King’s Treasure. On one hand that’s where His abundance and the reward is, on the other hand there’s nothing, everything is in the hands of Above except for fear of heaven. So it’s not clear if fear is something that we build, ask for, attain together or as if the King's Treasure and what's on our behalf actually?

R. Fear is the force that we develop within us to be standing opposite to the pleasure that is revealed from above if I am able to receive the greatness of the Creator the revolution of the Creator in order to bestow then it will be revealed it will fill my treasury indeed my vessel in order to bestow and therefore all of our work is that we will get used to states that need to be above the pleasures above our will to receive how do we do that only by us depicting to ourselves that the greatness of the ten the greatness of the revelation of the Creator is more than all the pleasures that we can imaging for ourselves if we will do that inside of the group as exercises then by that we will also reach exercises with the Creator and then we will build our vessel which is called the treasury and there will be all of the discernments that we will be able to establish and use them only in order to bestow, this is our actual spiritual vessel.

7. S. (15:04) What great pleasure is being spoken of here? I don’t feel like the Creator is giving pleasures, I feel like He’s only giving blows and sufferings.

R. The Creator constantly gives you pleasures and you receive them in order to receive or you reject them, in short, with your calculation that it will be good for you, if you will think about what should I do from this moment on in order to, by this, cause pleasure to my group, by that will you to start to sort everything that goes over you. Then you will see that already your outlook on life will start to aim you to a new attitude towards life and later on you will also be able to do the same thing towards the Creator, start.

S. What’s the meaning that I have to give pleasure to the friends? I didn't understand that.

R. Well if you’re in a group and you constantly think for the benefit of the group of the ten, what can I do for them, with them in order to raise them.

S. Isn't the Creator supposed to do those things?

R. The Creator of course will do it not you but you need to think about what and how can I do in order to bring them closer to the Creator they want it so what will I do in order to bring them closer.

S. That’s the great pleasure I can feel?

R. You now think about how you can delight the group; how can you bring the group to the good state.

S. If I think about bringing the group to the good state, that's the great pleasure that I will receive?

R. So are you thinking about how to receive or how to bestow, what are you thinking of?

S. I am asking about the pleasure that he’s writing here in the excerpt.

R. So he says that the pleasure that a person receives is a pleasure that is received in the fear of heaven, fear means that he doesn’t want to receive the pleasure but rather he receives it only in order to delight the host.

S. That’s the question, I don’t feel that I am receiving pleasure.

R. You do not have a vessel in which to receive the pleasure you only have a desire to receive it a desire is not enough.

S. So according to what I understood from what you said, I have to have the desire to bring the friends closer to the Creator and that will give me that vessel?

R. Yes.

S. There I will be able to feel that pleasure and be able to build fear from that?

R. Let’s say so because you're constantly thinking about how you will have pleasure, and this actually is a correct desire, but this is not how it should be prepared in order to truly come closer to the Creator.

S. So how do we prepare it?

R. He writes here in a minute I’ll answer a few questions in the meantime you can think.

8. S. (19:22) Why when we try to receive with the intention to receive we’re considered thieves?

R. Because you are receiving for yourself and in that you are not coming closer to the Creator to equivalence of form you do not become similar to Him you are moving away from Him and this is what He doesn’t want to happen to you He wants to bring you closer and therefore you can come closer to Him only through equivalence of form this is considered that you are receiving in order to bestow.

9. S. (20:22) So we can enter to bring contentment to the Creator also if we do it, for example, in order to sustain our physical body also when we’re eating and all kinds of things or is it not?

R. Anything that you are enjoy from even in the smallest measure by that you can give contentment to the Creator yes, if you will think about Him that by you doing it some action and you get pleasure from it this pleasure you would have liked to pass on to the Creator.

S. I didn’t understand how we do that.

R. Try, try one day two days a week, two weeks then we will talk, you will already have experience, you will know what is it that we are talking about and then we will try to scrutinize it.

10. S. (21:34) Will we constantly have the spiritual fear and how do we establish that constant relationship?

R. Specifically through fear we establish a constant connection fear meaning that I am afraid whether will I be able to receive pleasures only for the Creator and not for myself this means that the moment that some pleasure comes to my will to receive I make a restriction a screen and reflected light and I reject this pleasure to the host and I say that I disagree to receive any pleasure from Him for myself but rather only if by that I come closer I connect with Him I do good to Him but first of all rejection.

11. S. (22:56) If all day long when I receive pleasure instead of myself automatically, I don't know I fill my deficiency automatically, but I am it to the deficiency to the friend I’ll think about the deficiency of the friend but not mine, is that bestowal?

R. You should start the most important thing is that you will start these exercises.

12. S. (23:39) How the state of fear is related to the prayer in the ten and Arvut.

R. Fear is that greatest thing that we have towards the Creator if we develop fear meaning that I don’t want to receive anything for myself and in each and every place I go and this is how I think I can do anything but with the inner feeling with my inner preparation that I don’t want to do that for my own pleasure and then by that I prepare myself for states where I will begin to feel how the world is full of pleasures and everything comes from the Creator and He wants to fill everything and everyone and if I to the extent I will not want to receive these pleasures directly from Him I will discover them more and more until I will have a connection with the Creator and through this as we learn with a guest and the host that the guest does not want to receive and the host pressures him from all sides receive it and enjoy it and he doesn’t want to and then in the end when the host is pressures him and he doesn’t want it he begins to understand that yes here and there he can receive pleasure and it will be no longer be for himself but rather because the host is pressuring him so much and the host wants it that in order to delighted the host to cause pleasure to the host he receives it meaning that through the rejections through the calculations and taking the host into consideration he sees that a new condition a new vessel has been built the vessel of bestowal so that even though earlier he only wanted to receive for himself and to enjoy it now he sees that through the rejections now he feels that the host can enjoy the host wants to enjoy and he can delight the host so he already starts instead of just receiving what he wanted and later on instead of the refusal to receive which he did now he can start to open up his will to receive because for certain he will receive it for the host so that the host will enjoy from him, that's it and then he receives from the host pleasure that the host wants him to enjoy from meaning he begins to feel not what the host earlier maybe wanted to give him some candy let’s say but now he begins to feel his internal connection with the host the attainment of the host because he is performing the same action towards the host guest and the host there is what the host can give the guest some refreshment and inside of it there is the ability to connect and to feel each other internally so through the refusal of the guest to relate in a simple way to the host to the pleasure that comes from the host if the guest refuses to do that then he reaches greater more internal pleasures.

13. S. (28:11) Usually we learn that if we have if we don’t have vessels of bestowal then the Creator is concealed and we simply can't receive the light, therefore I shouldn’t be afraid that I’m not receiving and not in order to bestow and in the excerpt it’s written that the person is fearful that he won’t be able to receive the light in order to bestow. So it turns out that if a person already has the vessels of bestowal he knows how to work with this light so where is this point of fear that I received in order to bestow and at a certain moment I didn’t notice, if I understood correctly, and suddenly I start to receive for myself.

R. This point is called the point of restriction that I decide that I am not receiving anything for myself but only in order to delight the host if at all and this is the point.

S. I simply I have a practical question about that in the ten we’re working for many years already we’ve acquired a certain experience and I can do something for the sake of the friends, I start to do it let’s say consciously for the friends, for the Creator, and suddenly this security system does not work and I discover that all of a sudden I get pleasure from it, how correctly do I build this safety mechanism so that I will be able to protect myself from suddenly receiving?

R. Continue working inside of the group and ask the Creator that He will help you to build a more new connection a better one a stronger one ask of the Creator, you want to do everything with your intellect and your emotion it’s not a machine it’s not some engine it’s not a system if you want to achieve something essentially then you'll have to ask that you will be given it because your request is the vessel and then you will receive what you need not what you want maybe but what you need.

14. S. (30:59) Three weeks ago it appeared as if fear was something that’s really kind of close, a little effort and we will succeed. Three weeks worked and the feeling is that it’s just getting further away as if we’ve studied it and we understood that fear is a spiritual degree, a great one, and we’re starting to talk about it. We need to work on this seriously, the feeling is that it is getting further and further. What happens when we learn about a concept of fear?

R. Fear is actually the recognition of the boundary between us and the Creator fear is the feeling that there is a wall between man and the group or between the group and the Creator and it is the fear is what determines how the group can skip over this boundary between the person and the group and the group and the Creator skip over it and begin to already connect in order to bestow, fear is truly a great point it is the gap between us and the Creator between the will to receive and the will to bestow through a correct attitude towards this boundary we’re later able to jump over this boundary and to also be like the Creator to some extent in order to bestow this is called to enter the upper world.

S. I was simply missing the words, this border this entry, into the work with fear we’re working because we have experience working with this?

R. It is the same thing, well these two words are similar I don’t quite know how to express it, but it is the same thing let's say later on we will understand it we will feel it out of our experience.

15. S. (34:06) My friends want to delight the Creator. How does the Creator relate to that? Does He restrict the light towards them or how?

R. You need to be even more close to each other and try by changing the relations between you to understand that Creator’s relation to you that is all.

16. S. (34:43) He writes here about the fear from a great pleasure, sometimes we have states of effort of exertion and the pleasure is concealed. Also in those states there is a place for fear or only from the pleasure?

R. So what will the fear be about if it’s not about receiving pleasure?

S. So does a person even have a choice in such states because he writes that everything’s in the hands of heaven except the fear of heaven so all the efforts that we do, the efforts that we are doing, and exertion.

R. To begin with I have fear to begin with I fear of missing out on some pleasure that I will not receive pressure by us working in a group and towards the Creator we invert this fear from missing out on pleasure losing some pleasure to a different kind of fear whether I will be able to bestow to the friends and through them to the Creator so that the friends become a vessel through which I bestow to the Creator and then it turns out that in such a way we reach the correct vessel the correct fear how to receive first of all and how much can I bestow through the friends to the Creator, this is my bestowal and here I cannot be wrong.

17. S. (36:37) Continuing your answers, is the MAN clothed with fear and the MAD is measured by the fear?

R. I don’t want to talk about this now let's do it simply without MAN and MAD and anything there is something in what you are saying but I don’t want to get into it I have many people here and I need to be concerned about to care for everyone so you need to be concerned that we will have a vessel called fear and then through this fear we will develop a vessel in which to receive the abundance from the Creator.

18. S. (37:35) If a friend wants to give me some physical gift how can I receive this gift and on the other hand, internally to make a restriction as though I did not receive it.

R. I didn't understand.

S. If I will receive a gift, a physical I will enjoy it is clear to me that I am going to enjoy this gift what he gave me, but I am not yet let's say in a state where I can receive it in order to bestow but I should take the gift from him because I don’t want to hurt the friend.

R. That is already in order to bestow the fact that you’re receiving the gift otherwise you wouldn’t receive it but you receiving it in order to give him pleasure from that because otherwise he will be hurt that you don’t want to receive his gifts from him correct so that’s considered that you receiving it only in order to bestow because for yourself you already decided that you wouldn’t receive it even though it’s an important gift yes and you receive in order to give him pleasure for this to give him contentment and that’s called in order to receive in order to bestow.

19. S. (39:20) There are states there a minute before you tell your Saturday there is no chance that you would fall back into the pleasure a minute later you already find yourself inside the pleasure what is the purpose of these states?

R. So you would know that you are not responsible that only in your absorption and reception inside the group and inside the Creator can assure the correct calculation and the correct action according to that calculation.

S. How should we relate directly to such a stage because there is a feeling of frustration when it happens?

R. Ok frustration and cry and then continue you just being thought that you have not prepared the vessel correctly.

20. S. (40:19) What can I do to bring the ten closer to the Creator and bring the ten to a good state?

R. Try to give pleasures to the ten and to see that these pleasures are truly passing by you, that you would want to receive them for yourself but you're not doing so because you are raising them in their importance more than yourself. And therefore you are transferring those pleasures to the others and the fact that they are enjoying for you, you want that to be a much greater pleasure than you would have received.

21. S. (41:09) What is the difference between fear and the revelation of the Creator?

R. The revelation of the Creator can be only within fear as fear belongs to revelation. In what? In the fact that a person is fearful that if he is about to reveal the Creator in order to bring him contentment, then it will truly be in order to bring contentment to the Creator and not for oneself. As for oneself he would cancel it all and would not move from his place. But in order to give contentment to the Creator he goes to receive something, and it will be reception in order to bestow.

22. S. (42:13) Can we summarize what is fear among the friends?

R. Fear between friends is that I want to cause the friends certain forms of pleasure. And for that to be I try to learn from this that this would be truly for the pleasure of the friend, for the pleasure of the group as much as possible. And this is what each of us does to the others. And by this we gradually slowly slowly learn between us how to feel, how to aim, how to perform the calculation in order to bestow.

S. What exercises with fear should we do inside the ten?

R. Try. What exercises? Bring them something, cause them some pleasure. See if that pleasure that you are passing on to them, all of a sudden pride rises inside you, self-importance and so on. Try, try to see that.

S. Ok, that is in the physical connection that I bring them something and there is some interaction between us?

R. It doesn't even have to be something physical, that you are bringing them a bottle or something. By you connecting and learning something, by that you want to bring them contentment. By that you’re making sure that that contentment will be truly for their benefit and not for your own, that you want to work towards them with soul devotion. Check, examine.

S. Even when I am alone by myself in my thoughts I can give them something?

R. Also in thought for the time being, and then in words and actions when there is an opportunity.

S. When we reach a mutual connection with the Creator, what happens to the fear? Does it disappear?

R. The fear becomes the vessel within which you receive the pleasure from the Creator.

S. To understand the order of these things, first I have a feeling of fear and then there is restriction, screen, and reflected light? It comes first or is it the other way around, first there is rejection and then we reach a vessel called fear?

R. Yes, fear comes from the decision that you are about to receive in order to bestow or bestow in order to bestow because you are working against your will to receive.

23. S. (45:11) This fear, it’s a treasure once you have spiritual attainment but even now we have fear not to lose our ten, our group, Rav, Kabbalah. Is this an earlier fear or…?

R. Now it is an egoistic fear. I have a suitcase with important things in it and I am afraid of to lose it so I'm holding on to it tight.

24. S. (45:41) How is it possible to keep this vessels of fear together with the love towards the friends?

R. Specifically because I love them I want to pass on to them all the good there is. That is from fear and after the fear there’s already love, just like a mother who is gives with the spoon every good thing to the baby.

25. S. (46:13) Is the treasure of fear revealed to every friend personally or to the entire group together as a part of our advancement or maybe be both?

R. Fear is revealed also between the friends and in an individual way between one and another and in the group between everyone, between each and every one and the group, and from the group towards the Creator. It is all working out later in a one mechanism.

26. S. (46:50) In our generation should each friend have the vessel of fear or should the entire ten build such a vessel?

R. To each friend and also to the whole ten.

27. S. (47:03) What is own demand from the Creator, fear, or the correct intention?

R. The correct intention and fear is almost the same thing. Only the correct intention has something additional, all kinds of things, but fear is included in the intention.

28. S. (47:26) You said that we need fear from receiving in spirituality in order to receive. Is there even a possibility to discover something spiritual in order to receive?

R. No, how could it be, they contradict each other. In order to receive all the actions that we perform, teach us, and gradually bring us closer in order to bestow.

29. S. (48:00) Rejecting the pleasure and trying to pass it onto the friends, is that the same thing and if not what is the difference between the two?

R. If I reject the pleasure it’s like restriction and if I pass it onto others it’s already an act in order to bestow above the restriction, greater. The extension of it, continuation of it.

Reading 5 (48:32) RABASH, Article No. 31, "How I Love Your Teaching" ...God has made it

30. R. Clear?

31. S. (49:49) A few times you said that we have to do exercises towards the friends, towards the Creator so I wanted to focus on this, you want to experience some pleasure and physical one from the Creator, what does it mean to pass it onto the friends? What do I pass on to the friends?

R. Let's say that you want to enjoy some cake so you divide this to your friends and then you enjoy together with them and then you want to feel in the piece that you are tasting the flavor of the cake but you are depicting to the extent that each of them enjoys, and all of that is included in the pleasure that you received. Meaning that despite the fact that you tasted one part of the10th of that cake but the fact that you divided it and shared it with the friends, you try to feel as if you received from them not the pleasure of the cake but the pleasure, the spiritual pleasure. Why? You wanted to give them pleasure and that pleasure you received in return. That is not yet spirituality, but you can already say it is spiritual. It is an exercise in spirituality because still it is in order to receive but it is already coming closer to in order to bestow. Where you want to learn from this that it is possible to enjoy from bestowal. There are many things in this world which we do in bestowal but only we are not aware of it. Here we are now learning how at any given moment to try and do the same actions, the same actions, that we are doing every day but raise them to spiritual relations. and it is only dependent on our attitude.

S. Question not translated

R. You are right but that is enough that we are at least written down as friends. It is inscribed, it is written for you that he is a friend in the group. That is enough for you to be able to start relating to him in giving.

S. Not to feel pleasure in some initial state but to feel the friends instead?

R. You can continue feeling that pleasure but the fact that you want to give this pleasure to the friend needs to be more important. Just like a mother takes for herself some pleasure and gives it to her baby. This is more important for her also for us it has to be this way. There it happens naturally in order to receive but for us, no, and from this we come to, in order to bestow.

S. It is not possible to pass on to friends the entire pleasure. How can I pass on to them the importance of the goal and just to give them some inspiration?

R. For the time being it is like that, later you will see how many pressures there are in spirituality that you can pass on to each other and to enjoy them together.

32. S. (54:58) In relation to the exercises we do, there seems to be two kinds. There are exercises that we try to do in thoughts and feelings and somehow only the physical actions we do for the friends. What I noticed is that these exercises in thoughts, after 1 seconds, 2 seconds, 3 seconds, 10 seconds, it disappears and the dissolves only the physical actions succeed in holding you in a certain state for more than a few seconds. Is this how it is going to continue, or will it change? How to relate to this?

R. The physical actions leave an impression because they remain in the vessels after all and only in thought even though everything is clarified in thought, but later we need to move from the thought to the physical action. In which you somewhat talk between you. That's enough talking and deciding and don't think that it is just like that. Besides you if several other people decide on this, it is between you and if it disappears from you, then from the second, then to the third one through this common vessel that you have built that remains and then you can seemingly take it out of the air and use it, use all of those discernments.

S. Can we say that these physical actions are truly respected, and this is ok, and we can continue with them it is not something we have to stop at some point and shift something internal and emotional?

R. Yes.

33. S. (56:50) What other spiritual pleasures are there?

R. What additional spiritual pleasures are there? The answer is NRNHY. In all 125 degrees and more and more that we do not even know the names for the time being, because we haven't learned them yet. We will get to them, and you will see. In our world that pleasures are tiny and meaningless compared to the food, sex, family, money, honor knowledge, and in spirituality the are endless pleasures, eternal pressures, it’s all together and included in on great pleasure which is the upper light.

34. S. (57:55) Does the ego feel shame when in rejection from the Creator an in spiritual fear?

R. Certainly, he feels shame and wakes up and jumps up and doesn't agree. Of course. We feel this inside of us.

35. S. (58:36) The excerpt that we just read, he writes that every bad state we feel is only so that man will not be remain in that state he is in so out of that we have to emerge to the greatness of the Creator in order to achieve, in attaining this vessel called fear. How does it work this mechanism because on one hand we want to attain fear but without the greatness of the Creator we cannot attain it. What is our vessel really, the greatest of the Creator specifically or the fear?

R. Fear from the greatness of the Creator. This is actually the correct definition of this discernment, fear from the greatness of the Creator.

S. What exactly is the fear in that?

R. Just as it is written that he is Almighty and does everything and There is None Else Besides Him and therefore no matter what I do, think, etc., It is all him and I am altogether a tiny element, a little pixel of all of reality that feels Him. In order to feel more than what I feel I must connect to the additional pixels and also to the power supply that will fill us and then we will be able to locate who we are and who fills us and in this way we will come closer to Him to carry out in our desire His actions.

S. What brings us to this restriction that we talked about before, the greatness of the Creator? Is this what restricts us?

R. We are preparing ourselves even before the greatness of the Creator. The greatest of the Creator cannot appear if we are not preparing for it in advance. Therefore from the love of the created beings to the love of the Creator. That is a process. I must come to my actions towards the created beings, towards the friends and then from that, I come to the Creator. If I prepare myself correctly in the group then I already have an entry permit to the Creator.

S. The pixels that you mentioned this is our ability to have the connection in the ten. Is this the connection of the pixels?

R. Yes, yes. We want from the impressions of the individual private impressions to come to the general impression within which we will establish and stabilize the Creator between us.

S. What is the picture that we want to emerge when we connect these pixels? What is the picture that we want to see before our eyes?

R. The picture that we want to see is the picture of the creator. That is why it is called from the love of the creative beings to the love of the Creator.

S. Which is seemingly, you cannot simplify it I guess. What is this image of the Creator before our eyes?

R. The picture of the Creator between before our eyes is the sum of the individual relations of His towards all of the group. that each of us feels and in the connection between us and the annulment of the boundaries between us, we come to the common impression with the Creator. That way our vessels connect and lose their individuality and also the impression in the vessels all together is expressed in the fact that more and more we are canceling the borders and feel the Creator in greater resolution. Whereas instead of small pixels you see greater ones and greater ones until they become fragments of the pictures. Then these pictures unite and become one picture. This is to the extent that we rise from all the world through all the upper worlds to Ein Sof.

36. S. (01:04:11) Maybe it is related through the individual pixels or the sum total of the pixels When a friend performs an action in the ten and each one has its own character he performs an action of connection, is it possible to receive pleasure from the Creator through this friend or should we perform action where the whole ten does it together?

R. To the extent that we do it together commonly, we can get greater pleasure. Because the pleasure is not necessarily how much we receive from the Creator that we received from the Creator, but it depends on the vessel and the extent to which the vessel can gather itself together and present itself together. From that feeling of togetherness comes the pleasure, which is greater than that which we received from the Creator.

S. If a friend performs an action and everyone wants to be with him in the action is it considered as he performs the action, or everyone performs the action?

R. Eventually you see that this action was performed by the Creator.

37. S. (01:05:49) What is the difference between fear towards the Creator and fear with respect to humanity?

R. No that is not our matter here now,

Reading Excerpt 6 (01:06:25) “All that one needs to obtain that he can define as....” twice

38. S. (01:08:08) When I enjoy, for the ten, how will I understand that they received this pleasure and I actually feel it and it is not actually just my fantasy?

R. Talk about it. That's a problem. The more you talk about it even if you lie a little bit to the others that is natural but nevertheless by this you are connecting and working against your ego, you will feel to the extent to which it is improving slowly the relations between you are becoming more direct with one another.

39. S. (01:08:58) It is written the Creator in this treasury, only has the fear of heaven in his treasure. Why does the Creator only have fear in this treasure?

R. Because we do not need anything more. Only fear to not lose that which we receive from the Creator and for us to come closer to Him and to bring Him contentment and for Him to be delighted in us and for all these things all together, well there are many others, but for us not to lose one another, for us to connect with one another, for us to be able to receive from the other in a complete way, to be able to bestow to Him full. All of these things are called fear. We are all together in fear. This is how in this vessel we will begin to feel his attitude towards.

40. S. (01:10:03) Can you give a simple explanation of what a Kli a vessel means? If fear is also a vessel, how do we build a vessel of fear in the ten?

R. It is known to everyone what it means to sit before the host, the Lord. We have learned this exercise before. We are standing before the lord, before the boss. The boss wants to give us and we are on the other side of the table and we did not want to receive because it is uncomfortable for us. He says, do it so that you are enjoying it. Do it in order to give me pleasure so you can receive that. The more you receive, the more you will enjoy, so here we need to do a calculation. Can we enjoy it? We want but can we receive in order to delight him? We need to think, we need to prepare our vessel, we need to actually do a calculation. Is it possible or not? Are we capable of it or not? When in the middle of the pleasure, can we start to think of ourselves? How tasty is it? Therefore ,between us we need to do exercises. If we can connect in order to cause pleasures to one another and to think of one another, where each thinks of her friends, then by that we can come to a state that the pleasures that we receive can be in order to bestow. This way we can continue to receive in order to bestow. Do these exercises and you will see.

41. S. (01:12:14) What are the conditions under which the person is feeling in order to feel the fear of heaven?

R. What are the conditions under which the person is feeling in order to feel the fear of heaven? That I am afraid to do any action without thinking how it will be received by the Creator and how it will be received in the Creator, I can know, examine, how it will be received in the group.

42. S. (01:13:01) What are the states that precede fear?

R. The states that precede fear are whether I will be able to receive in order to bestow. Whether I am enjoying the greatness of the group, the greatness of the friends, the greatness of the Creator and not the pleasure that comes to me directly. Let's say whatever nourishment He is giving me, the food that He is putting on the table.

43. S. (01:13:47) Can a person succeed not to receive in order to receive already the very first time or after he attains the Creator or does it come from failure and disappointments.

R. Only after a person does exercises on how to know not to receive for himself but rather give pleasure to others, to the friends, to think about them, can he shift to the thought of giving to the Creator. That all that he wants is to give contentment to the Creator rather than give to himself and when he reaches these actions and then in practice he is being taught from the smallest pleasures he can be real pleasures. That he learns within society, within the group. Kabbalah (reception) in practice, is revealed in the group.

44. S. (01:15:04) It is written, “Who is a fool? One who loses what he is given.” How do we not lose what we received and how do we understand exactly what it is that we received so that we do not lose it?

R. Hold on tightly to the connection in the and in this connection approach the Creator, pray and demand, ask of Him to give us something that he wants to give to the created beings, and we want to receive it in order to bestow. In order to get contentment with Him. Meaning we are preparing ourselves for restriction, rejection, and reflected light and to enter with the Creator with actions with I to my beloved and my beloved for me. He gives us and we give Him. This way we will really reach a connection with Him.

45. S. (01:16:08) While I'm giving pleasure to friends and I feel pride for that, what should I do at that time in order not to receive in order to receive?

R. What are you doing with pride? Enjoying it? It is okay for the time. For the time being it is okay. Now just to make the calculation of what you are doing. Are you keeping this pride in order to increase the price, or to hold on to it or is it to continue with an act of bestowal? There are many actions here. I may say I have no choice. I have to get some medal, some medal of honor because without that I cannot work in order to bestow. Bit by bit, work in order to bestow and to less and less, to get these badges of honor until I will not want it and giving contentment to the group, to humanity will be a pleasure for me, without even anybody knowing about it. without having it in this world, the next world or anything. All I want is to cause an action of bestowal just like the Creator and for them to receive everything and I will have nothing, just like the Creator. I am not thinking about myself, not about the next world, not thinking about attainment. That is the way He is, me too.

46. S. (01:18:10) Many actions during the day are when a person isn't with his ten, how can we ascribe daily activities to spiritual matters?

R. Even when I'm sitting with a friend, what does it mean that I'm with him together? If I'm in the general action together when everyone is thinking more or less about the same actions, the same calculations, well flows, we are together.

47. S. (01:18:48) Is the feeling of the light a pleasure from the ability to bestow?

R. Again?

S. Is the feeling of the light a pleasure from the ability to bestow?

R. The feeling of light is the result of causing pleasure in order to bestow.

48. S. (01:19:20) Why wouldn't we try to bring joy to friends in the ten when the Creator burdens the heart more and makes it harder?

R. He must do it this way, otherwise how will we rise in the degrees of bestowal? The degrees of connection? That is why each and every time he increases our will to receive, He gives more burden on us, He puts more pressure on us, He confuses us. This is all for us to scrutinize our vessels, our relations. Of course, He's helping us each and every moment. This is the meaning of the verse, you raise in sanctity, you never decrease. He is always concerned about us rising.

49. S. (01:20:13) You said if we determine something between us it remains even though it disappears from some of the friends, something of it remains.

R. Sometimes it stays in the air, but it stays in the vessel of the ten.

50. S. (01:20:33) Can it disappear from all the friends individually and still remain in between us.

R. Yes, it is called the vessel of the ten, it still remains between us, even if none of us is able to recall it or to feel it.

51. S. (01:21:03) How can we know that what I want to bring to the friends will be a pleasure for her?

R. Whatever gives you pleasure, due to the friend, and she will have pleasure. This is the examination; we have no other test and vice versa. Don't do anything to your friend what you hate.

52. S. (01:21:40) How can I feel the greatness of the Creator to such an intensity that will let me be above the hatred to connection?

R. Ask, ask of the Creator and it will be revealed to you in such a large manner that your ego will surrender, will be restricted. Ask, Ask.

53. S. (00:22:17) How can I protect myself from the will to receive towards the friends?

R. Protect yourself from the friend?

S. From the will to receive, towards the friends?

R. No, the best is if I simply engage in bestowal. That is the best shield, not to be hurt from anyone, not to be impressed by anything, besides these good things, to be in bestowal as much as you can. Then this intention will perceive everything that comes to you and process it correctly and it will become stronger with this intention of bestowal.
