Reader: Hello friends, before we begin the lesson, we will hear what is happening in the study hall, about the works that are going on there.

Student (Petah Tikva): Yes, friends, I was just asked to speak but the true heroes are in the study hall right now! And when fundamental construction work is required there – having to do with isolation and other things – and that, necessitates the friends to work above. And, well, I was asked not to say names, so I'll respect it, but right away, dozens of friends went all in. And it's a lot of work that's being done, not just during the lesson, but during the day; also, friends are coming and contributing. And we'd like to dedicate this lesson now, not just to those who are doing it, but to those who are doing it. And we'd like to thank them for that. The friends are hearing us, and not only they who are working on the study hall, preparing it for the most sacred thing in our life, the morning lesson. But also, all the friends who are on duties – friends who are dedicating their life to make sure the lesson works; and takes the people on camera, and translators, and video switchers, and so forth. Let's hold everyone in our attention during the lesson, and have a great, joyful lesson, L’chaim friends!

Reader: In the first part of the lesson, we will learn from a lesson that took place on September 6th, 2020 in the topic of Work with Faith Above Reason. Before we begin the lesson, we will read together, Excerpt Number 28 from Rabash article, What Are the Times of Prayer and Gratitude in the Work?

Reading: (02:24) 28. Rabash. Article 7 (1990), “What Are the Times of Prayer and Gratitude in the Work?”

A person must believe above reason that he is in wholeness, and so is the whole world.

It follows that in this way he can and should thank the Creator for giving us abundance. This is called the “right line,” which is the complete opposite of the left line. That is, in the left line, we walk within reason, as was said, that “A judge has only what his eyes see.” In other words, it is specifically with the intellect and not above the intellect. But when shifting to work with the “right,” the left is the cause that the right is built on the basis of above reason.

This is as our sages said, “The left pushes away and the right pulls near.” In other words, the state of “left” shows a person how he is rejected and separated from the work of the Creator. “The right pulls near” means that it shows him that he is close to the work of the Creator. This means that when he engages in the left, the left should bring him to see a state of rejection, that he is rejected and separated from the work. When he engages in the right, he should come to a state where he sees that he is close to the Creator. He should thank the Creator for the “right,” and pray to the Creator for the “left”.

Question (Volga): (04:24) You said that one can be on the right line or on the left line, and he also can be disconnected. Let's say, I disconnected, an hour has passed and now I remember the work again. Our question in the Ten is, what happens between these two points?

M. Laitman: If you're not on the right or on the left, then you're dead, you’re dead. Then, from above, they do a calculation with you, when to revive you and it also depends on the group and how it all works; and how it also pulls you to work but you, in that, are really as dead, you can’t work.

Question (ITA 4): (05:23) Is there a left line or a right line outside of the Ten?

M. Laitman: You can't really say, you can talk about a single person but it's not practical. It is easy to describe it this way about a single individual that one time he relates from the side of his ego and another time he overcomes and he relates from the side of his force of bestowal. But really, it is from the Ten, the right and the left are from the Ten.

Question (Piter 3): (06:11) When you're on the left line, you also give contentment to the Creator. But where to take the strength to come out of the left line, where I don't want to be on the left side?

M. Laitman: The fact that we're on the right, and we also give gratitude to the Creator for elevating our egoistic will to receive so we fall, as it says, a person should be thankful for the bad as for the good. Of course, it is true but that's not the work, this means that I received some material to work with. Now, I need to work, now, I need to overcome, to perform actions of coming closer to the group. To bring to the group my intensified will to receive. And to start to work with them and through them to advance everyone through them and through my will to receive. The group is the right and the will to receive that I now receive from above is the left. And then, I combine them together, me and the group and we take a step forward. This is how it is with each and every one. At the same times, at the same states, we're constantly advancing. It's like we have such cars that have four wheels that are constantly moving, engaging. Meaning that the engine, the motor, is connected to all four wheels – four-wheel drive, not just connected to the two wheels on the back or the two on the front but to all of them. This is how we want to do it in the Ten so everyone is working and we're not waiting for anyone else to finish the work and then we will start. Therefore, each one discovers in that he also has Ten Sefirot from everyone and this is how we work. And this is wonderful work if we start to feel it and it is truly a place for advancement.

Question (Latin 6): (08:35) How can we identify in the best possible way if we are on the right side in a prayer and not to confuse it with a state where I'm only curious or inactive?

M. Laitman: Start to work, start to work and you'll see that it is impossible to be confused about it – it's impossible to be confused. These things are so clear: Either I'm immersed in my will to receive and I see the world through my will to receive, that it is entirely negative on the left. Or I try with the group and with the Creator to ascribe everything to progress. I justify this situation to start with, that we are advancing through it. That specifically this way it is possible to advance, that when I shift all the left to the right, this is how we advance. When we reach the perfection, the wholeness of the work, in each and every stage when the left and the right are equal for me. Then, I need to be grateful for the bad as for the good and that darkness will shine as light. This way, each time, we advance towards this state.

Student: How should we relate in the workshop when I speak and the Ten stay quietly? I need to accept that there's wealth on the right side but how to add to it?

M. Laitman: If you get forces from the Ten by adhering to them and then, when you’re adhered to the Ten, you get forces with which to work with your left. Not just in order for you to feel better and calm, but rather in order to work with your left state so that you can take your ego, your will to receive, your criticism and now, you can add it to what you receive from them, the strength, the awakening. And when you advance both of them inside of your adhesion with the group. This is the right action and then for you, the right and the left are equal; that is, this is important and that is important. You connect the two of them and this is considered that you've taken a step forward.

Question (New York 2): (11:04) How can we hold everyone together above reason in the Ten?

M. Laitman: I see from all of the states that I'm going through that I have to relate to them as to greater ones that are in the end of correction; it just works out this way for me. Over each and every bad that I have, I go to them, I ask from them for forces, even without any words, I adhere to them, I get forces from them. With these forces, I balance my attitude to my left and this is the correction. Do you understand, this is how it happens.

Question (French): (12:11) It's written that the left is a prayer and the right is gratitude. A prayer is a deficiency, what is gratitude? How should gratitude be expressed in the Ten?

M. Laitman: They have reached a state where the left and the right are equal, connected, in that, I see progress. Do you know what wholeness means? Even if I am awakened through my left to a small height. However, if my left begins to be equal with the right, that is wholeness; and, in terms of height, it could be that the left is greater than the height and then it is incomplete. That is, in each and every degree we have the state of wholeness – it's on the middle line and on this middle line, we, following some few such actions, we discover the Creator. The Creator is depicted to us on the middle line where there is no right and no left and everything is whole to some extent, on some micro-dose, but this is how we advance.

Question (Asia): (13:36) I want to ask about the point, the middle line: It seems to me that movement stops there. We reach a whole state, the connection with the Creator so there's no more fluctuations?

M. Laitman: On the middle line there is no movement, you're right, for the time being, there is no movement, no motion on the middle line. We will also reach how to work correctly with them in the middle line.

Question (Bulgaria): (14:21) Can we ask the Creator during the left line to rise to, above reason?

M. Laitman: You're right, yes.

Question (Kyiv 1): (14:41) If I connect with friends during the prayer, I feel the connection with the Creator and gratitude, does it mean that I'm on the right line?

M. Laitman: No, I don't know, it depends upon which conditions you're connecting with the Ten. Do you have work there or not, do you have your ego there towards them that you had to annul, that you had to elevate them? These conditions for connection, they determine if it will be the right or the middle.

Student: What determines the right line? It’s that gratitude in the request, when we feel wholeness, the wholeness of the connection?

M. Laitman: That's incorrect, this is already the middle line. Look what he says here.

Reading: (15:46) 28. Rabash. Article 7 (1990), “What Are the Times of Prayer and Gratitude in the Work?”

A person must believe above reason that he is in wholeness, and so is the whole world.

M. Laitman: It’s in wholeness.

Reading: (15:55) 28. Rabash. Article 7 (1990), “What Are the Times of Prayer and Gratitude in the Work?”

It follows that in this way he can and should thank the Creator for giving us abundance.

M. Laitman: That everything in his eyes, it is in wholeness. Then, he is in adhesion with the Creator and for this he says, thanks; this is natural.

Reading: (16:18) 28. Rabash. Article 7 (1990), “What Are the Times of Prayer and Gratitude in the Work?”

This is called the “right line,” which is the complete opposite of the left line. That is, in the left line, we walk within reason, as was said, that “A judge has only what his eyes see.”

M. Laitman: Meaning inside of our ego, inside of our will to receive, we look at the world, at ourselves, at everyone.

Reading: (16:44) 28. Rabash. Article 7 (1990), “What Are the Times of Prayer and Gratitude in the Work?”

In other words, it is specifically with the intellect and not above the intellect.

M. Laitman: Not above the intellect, not above the mind. No, it's all within the intellect.

Reading: (16:55) 28. Rabash. Article 7 (1990), “What Are the Times of Prayer and Gratitude in the Work?”

But when shifting to work with the “right,” the left is the cause that the right is built on the basis of above reason.

M. Laitman: If we won't have the left then upon which will we rise? That is, first of all, there has to be the left. This is why they say, left and right, left, and right—this is how we walk.

Reading: (17:24) 28. Rabash. Article 7 (1990), “What Are the Times of Prayer and Gratitude in the Work?”

This is as our sages said, “The left pushes away and the right pulls near.”

M. Laitman: Then I, from the right, has what to bring closer: to pray, to connect with the group, to look for all kinds of tactics in order to bring closer because the left reveals how far away you are.

Reading: (17:44) 28. Rabash. Article 7 (1990), “What Are the Times of Prayer and Gratitude in the Work?”

In other words, the state of “left” shows a person how he is rejected and separated from the work of the Creator. “The right pulls near” means that it shows him that he is close to the work of the Creator. This means that when he engages in the left, the left should bring him to see a state of rejection, that he is rejected and separated from the work.

M. Laitman: But this happens because a little bit more of his will to receive was revealed to him. They opened up for him what is in him, and then on top of this will to receive that was revealed – this new one, he can see how far away he is.

Reading: (18:36) 28. Rabash. Article 7 (1990), “What Are the Times of Prayer and Gratitude in the Work?”

When he engages in the right, he should come to a state where he sees that he is close to the Creator. He should thank the Creator for the “right,” and pray to the Creator for the “left.”

Question (New York 1): (19:16) If we are not on the left line or on the right line but in a state of slumber. Can we awaken by ourselves, meaning remember, by ourselves?

M. Laitman: A person has no possibility if he is not awakened from the outside, to awaken by himself. Unless, as it is here, rather as it is in his will. You put up an alarm clock, let's say – and this is the group – and you ask of them to wake you up. Or it comes from the Creator, from both of these sources, but you by yourself, if you're disconnected, you cannot get up. You cannot awaken to spiritual work because it's not natural for you to want spiritual work. I mean spiritual, not just to perform some religious actions or something but, rather, a spiritual action. Because a spiritual action is entirely above and against your emotion, against your intellect, against your will to receive. Therefore, you cannot awaken through the will to receive which is entirely you, to spiritual work. You cannot, only if you're given what we call an awakening from above from the Creator, or the group awakens you—one of two.

Question (BB UK): (21:03) There are two sides to my question: One, if there's a friend that is very active, he disseminates, he participates in everything. But his attitude to the Ten causes everyone to try and justify him. Does it mean that he's holding the Ten on the right line?

M. Laitman: If a person is active in what, in the study, in dissemination but not so much in the work in the group?

Student: He's active in everything but the rest of the friends feel that he's constantly pushing us, he always coerces us.

M. Laitman: In a positive or a negative way?

Student: Positive, relative to the goal.

M. Laitman: Well, then stick with him, maybe he'll improve over time. Give him examples of how you would like him to awaken you. But the fact that he is awakening you, that is good.

Question (Koln-D’dorf): (22:10) How can we define if the Ten is in the left or in the right line?

M. Laitman: On the left line is where they feel that there are flaws, in the world, in them. In the right line is where they are connected between them and we do not feel any flaws but only gratitude to the Creator.

Student: When I think about this, let's say, this is the first rule. On the end, everything depends on my own perception. For me, is something, right, I am in the feeling we are going to the right but on the other side, can be that for someone else in the Ten, it is going to the left. How we can make this the common perception and feeling that we are to define always and know when to go more to the right? Not to be too much for someone—for someone, going too much to the right is the left.

M. Laitman: This is hard work, and it's not for now, but it's good that you are asking, and I heard it very patiently and gladly! This is the future work when we will receive each time the individual deviations of each and every one. And then each time we will be in such kind of wholeness like a circle. And it's constantly that each one is going up and each one is going up. And this way, in such a way, we will feel how the Creator is talking to us, how He is playing on us, as on a keyboard, on the keys. This is what we will feel as a Ten, how He is doing it. We will start to feel how He is passing to us His language. One is more, one is less, and in what particular forms—that will come later. We will be an instrument that He will play on, that's it! But soon, these will be wonderful things – just wait!

Question (ITA 2): (25:06) The left line is the time for the prayer. If, in the group, do we later feel joy, can this prayer give us a feeling of wholeness?

M. Laitman: Yes, well, take it slowly, we need to see the wholeness out of our Kli, how much we're all connected, each one in his style of work. But we feel that each one is doing something, right? Let's say when you build something so each one is doing something different in the general structure.

Question (Moscow 3): (25:55) Do I understand, correctly, that from the Creator only one kind of bestowal comes, and only I determine if it's left or right, descent, ascent, darkness, light?

M. Laitman: From the Creator comes an addition of light and this addition of light, it actually awakens in us all kinds of responses, and this is how we advance. But from the Creator, comes only an addition of light—nothing besides that. This is called, In sanctity there is always elevation, never a decline, we're always in that only.

Question (KabU 2): (26:43) When it speaks in the article of rejection, is that us rejecting or the Creator rejecting, or a combination of both?

M. Laitman: Everything comes from above; everything comes from the Creator. There Is None Else Besides Him. He is the reason, the cause for everything we feel, everything we think, and also everything that we respond. You can say, well, if the response, our response also comes from Him, where am I? You do the preparation, and according to your preparation, He then awakens within you the response as well. This is called that the Creator puts in your hand the Kli and He teaches you and, seemingly, you're doing it but He is doing it as well. However, the preparation, the preparation between us, this is what we do.

Question (Turkiye 3): (27:55) When we are studying in two lines with friends, is this advancing us to wholeness?

M. Laitman: Certainly, I don't know what it means to—what did he say, study? If we work on the two lines, we get the middle line from above, soon we will learn how to do it. The middle line is already a Kli, a vessel for the revelation of the Creator.

Question (Tbilisi): (28:39) We read about the left line being a prayer and the right line being gratitude. Do we need to put an additional effort on the right line?

M. Laitman: No, no but only to organize it, maybe, more correctly because, by this, we establish ourselves. But actually, in the spiritual work in general, there is no room for exertion besides exerting in the connection between us. Scrutinizing the places of connection between us: How do we create these clicks, click, click, click? When we get in to each other, that we get in together and each one remains in his own but each one is also connected with the others, we need to scrutinize these forms of interconnections. Because specifically in those forms of interconnections, we build points and from the points we build lines and from the lines we build letters. This is why in Hebrew; all of the letters are square.

Student: What is the work on the right line?

M. Laitman: On top of the left line we reach gratitude, gratitude to the Creator. The right line is already a result of the correction. Is this clear?

Question (USA Northeast): (30:46) What if a person is incapable of overcoming and bringing positive force, adding to the Ten. And is constantly pulling the importance down, completely disconnecting it?

M. Laitman: We need to ask of him, we need to tell him, we are asking him to participate as much as possible, even like a baby, but do not hinder. He should try to see our work, the work of grown-ups, and he is not capable of it so he should ascribe himself to it as much as he is capable of it. Like a little one who is next to the grown-ups – I know this about myself. I was also this way and it's very difficult to understand how come I need to annul? I mean, I feel like cancelling their work and criticizing them and, here, I nevertheless need to get an explanation for why yes and why not. Sometimes there are states where a person doesn't want to listen to it, he doesn't want to hear it. And then we have to move him away – move him out of the Ten for some time. And then again to bring him closer because such people who want to take part but they are not capable of participating with subjugation, they carry within them a very big Kli, a will to receive, and we will lack it in our group advancements. Therefore, we have to, somehow, try to hold them in such a way that they won't be harmful; and, somehow, in the most passive way, they do take part.

Question (Moscow 7): (32:59) What is the left line and how is it different from a simple, corporeal disconnection?

M. Laitman: Listen, we read what the left is here: The left is, in the left line we walk within reason and we see that the world is entirely not corrected. And we have the coronavirus with us; and all kinds of problems; and friends are not friends and the Creator is not the Creator. And regarding each and every thing, I criticize it because my will to receive has now grown. It awakened, it was revealed and I speak out of it. This is considered the left.

Student: What is the difference between being in no line whatsoever?

M. Laitman: I'm speaking with respect to the spiritual work, I have criticism regarding the spiritual work, the group, and our advancement, the wholeness in our work. This is considered left, the left rejects, it rejects but it's not that it pushes me out. I'm in the work; however, I feel rejection. There is just left which is not even called, left, that's the ego. The left in the work is when I feel that I want to advance towards connection with the group and with the Creator and I cannot. Then, the fact that I cannot, I can count it and measure it, weight it. I cannot because of this and because of that, etc., this is called, left.

Student: It works out to be in connection, or to think of the friends even negatively; whereas not at all?

M. Laitman: Certainly.

Question (Almaty): (35:09) Why is it so difficult to hold on to the gratitude and the prayer together?

M. Laitman: How can it be that I am full of complaints towards the Creator, and at the same time I tell Him, thank You very much? I have never seen a person who is beaten, and he says, thank you very much, thank you very much! It cannot be from the will to receive that you will hear this, but rather maybe it's just a game, acting, it's a lie. But naturally it cannot be – if he feels bad, he cannot say, thank you. We are not acting in a theater; we are speaking about nature.

Question (Ukraine): (36:07) The acceleration in the connection, in the correction between us, is the acceleration in the changing of the states of right and left, or attaining the middle line?

M. Laitman: Yes, this is nice! That is, advancement in the work, acceleration in the work, depends on how much with greater speed, with higher frequency, we reach the middle line from all of our different states. Out of the middle line, out of our points on the middle line that we build – we build the – and this actually brings us to a certain intensity of the where the Creator is revealed.

Question (French ): (37:01) I don't understand how the will to receive, which is against the will to bestow, can decide by itself that it is the one who disturbs our bestowal.

M. Laitman: The person decides, the desires, themselves, don't say anything. I mean, they awaken within the person, and the person is the one who decides does it hinder him or not.

Question (MAK VG4): (37:42) In faith above reason, is faith together with reason rising up?

M. Laitman: This is not what we talked about for the time being, so I'm not going to answer it. Get used to ask precisely about what we are talking, okay? The fact that you feel like fantasizing about all kinds of things – I don't want to hear about it; and also using words that we were not using.

Question (Rehovot): (38:18) Left line and the right line, they should be equal? I'm a little bit confused, because I remember that it was said, that Rabash said, that only half an hour a day is permitted to be on the left line?

M. Laitman: When you invite the left line by yourself, you invite it only half an hour a day. The rest of the time, you are working on the right, according to how much the left is awakened in you.

Question (Tel Aviv 1): (39:02) At the beginning of the lesson, you talked about linear time and simultaneous time. How do we achieve this simultaneous time, and how is this related to the work between the right, and left, and middle line?

M. Laitman: I didn't say, simultaneous.

Student: You said that we can achieve all times at the same time. It's not linear.

M. Laitman: I also didn't say, linear. I didn't say linear, I didn't say it! I think how I spoke, and use the same, the same syntax to speak to me.

Question (Tel Aviv 10): (39:40) He writes in the article that the right line is above reason, the left line is within reason. What happens on the that we wish to achieve because this is what we want to achieve, is it above reason?

M. Laitman: The is the pure above reason, is the Creator, where we build him. It doesn't exist in nature, the , but we build Him. It's called, You have made Me.

Student: So, it's kind of a game, each time, within reason, above reason, within reason, above reason, this is how it's established?

M. Laitman: Yes, it's not established, it's all – it goes like that until the end of correction.

Question (Heb 10): (40:23) We heard earlier that each time we will receive individual deviations for each and every time, and then we will reach this kind of perfection, like a circle. And this way we will feel how the Creator is talking to us, playing on us. The question is, this playing of the Creator, the speaking of the Creator, where does it come from? From the conflicts between us?

M. Laitman: Various things, yes, both in the minor and the major, in all forms, all sorts of sounds, you understand, all sorts of notes. The melodies are very different – look at the Psalms, look at the melodies there. We don't know what are the melodies of King David, who wrote the Psalms. He was also a musician, a composer and he would sing, but at least according to the words, according to the flow of the words, we can somehow imagine to what extent these compositions are probably very special, also in the sounds. I truly hope that we will reach a state where we can hear his songs, his sounds truly in heaven because nothing disappears from spirituality, and we will be able to hear them. We will be able to hear the voice of King David singing Psalms!

Student: Well, you gave an example about Psalms now, but it sounds like the Creator is speaking to us. It's always through the sources, through the writings of Kabbalists?

M. Laitman: Yes, because they wrote it from their state of adhesion, from their attainment, it's always in the .

Question (Haifa 3): (42:50) Yesterday, I had a physical meeting with the Ten, most of the Ten took part. Can I consider it as work on the left line, and then the right line?

M. Laitman: It has nothing to do with meetings, these kind of meetings or those kind or meetings. It has to do with inner states between you, that's what I can say, that’s it; it belongs only to the inner states between you, in what states are you in. And each one can be in that for the time being, each one in a different line. And later you'll come to such a connection between you that you'll know how to aim yourselves according to your choice in left, right, middle, left, right, middle – that's how it should be.

Question (KabU ): (43:55) My question is about the last sentence where it says, He should thank the Creator for the right and pray to the Creator for the left. What does it mean to pray to the Creator for the left? Why are we praying for the left line?

M. Laitman: He gives us material for work by which we can come close to Him, since if he wouldn't awaken the left in us, we would remain as flies in this world. But because he awakens the ego in us, the egoistic desire on the left, it gives us work – the power to work, the mind to work, to do something with this desire until you get a form that resembles the Creator. So, we are aware of that, we are grateful for it, both for the good and for the bad. And anything that we cannot come closer without establishing correctly the right and left. And in the middle between the left and right, we establish ourselves in the form of the , in faith above reason, which is really the figure, the image of the Creator. And that says, And the Lord's name will be on you; we acquire the form of the Creator inside, let's say inside. We put everything on the outside; we arrange ourselves as the force of love and bestowal. Love covers all transgressions, that's why we bless over the bad as over the good, since all the bad is our matter. And without it, we won't be able to arrange ourselves as good. We are, seemingly, building that shape from a piece of clay.

Question (PT 25): (46:14) When we are in the left, in real time, the rejection is such that there is no prayer also, prayer does not emerge?

M. Laitman: Nothing to worry about, first of all, be grateful that the Creator has given us such a left line, it's a sign that we can process it correctly. Otherwise, He wouldn't have given it to you, the Creator doesn't give you something for a person to fail, what for? He gives you exactly no more, no less, what you are incapable of doing under the conditions you are in. And you just need to remember how to process the evil that it awakens, and the process of the evil is only the connection to the group. So, you need to connect to the group, connect to the Creator, and find in the group the form of the Creator, and you are hiding in it. First of all, it's called, Ibur; then you grow even more, you add something to it, this is Yenika and Mochin, that's how it is, you'll grow up, and you'll see. The important thing is that daily, also lately in the evening, we start to have these exercises in this way. We'll do it quickly.

Student: It's a kind of paralysis?

M. Laitman: Paralysis, there is not such a thing. There is a stretcher in a group, they should lay you on it and carry you. There is always a friend who is in a state of paralysis; then they take him and they carry him.

Student: So, tell them to help me!

M. Laitman: I cannot tell them, I'll tell them you have an opportunity to go and to carry others, that's it.

Question (PT 14): (48:44) You said that the middle line is created when there is equality between the right and the left. What is this discernment? How can I tell that they are equal?

M. Laitman: You will feel wholeness in the work. When you are able to be grateful for the left and for the right, and these two states are clear to you. It's clear that they will bring you to a special state, and in this special state, you are in adhesion with the group. And you are preparing yourself for the revelation of the Creator inside the group.

Question (PT 17): (49:34) In the Ten, in the work in the Ten, some are in prayer, some are in gratitude?

M. Laitman: It could be, each and every one is in different states.

Student: So, how does the work happen between them in such states?

M. Laitman: The Creator will clarify that, don't worry about it. You need to be in a state as close to wholeness as possible. Don't erase the left, rather with the left that is revealed, enter the right, add the right to the left, and reach the middle line.

Student: And the common work on the left, is it common work by everyone?

M. Laitman: No, not yet, you could try, each one tries to be in a state as whole as possible. But it's without erasing the left, otherwise, you are seemingly not participating. You need to bring your efforts through the left. And through the right, and the combination of the two should be right: When you bless over the left and bless over the right, and you hold on to both, and then you begin to feel what is the middle line.

Question (Moscow 6): (51:09) The awakening of the group comes mostly from the left line?

M. Laitman: Yes, the group, a person awakens typically from the left side because we are egoists. But when we awaken ourselves, we can awaken ourselves from the right side – from the side of the greatness of the Creator, the greatness of the goal – and it's preferred.

Question (PT 34): (51:47) It's better for us to live in the right line or the left line, or to find life not in the lines but between the lines, that is, in the process of transitioning between them?

M. Laitman: The real state is the middle line. Reader, next.

Reading: (52:22) 29. Rabash. Assorted Notes. Article 300. “A Land Where You Will Eat Bread Without Scarcity”

This is what it means that one must engage in Torah day and night, that the night and the day should be equal for him, as written in The Zohar (BeShalach). In other words, the state of completeness called “day,” and the state of incompleteness called “night,” should be equal. That is, if his aim is for the sake of the Creator then he agrees that he wants to bring contentment to his Maker, and if the Creator wants him to remain in the state of incompleteness, he agrees to this, as well. The consent is expressed by doing his work as if he were rewarded with wholeness. This is regarded as “agreeing,” when the day and the night are equal to him.

But if there is a difference, to the extent of the difference, there is separation, and on that separation there is a grip to the outer ones. Hence, if a person feels that to him there is a difference, he must pray to the Creator to help him so there will not be a difference for him, and then he will be rewarded with completeness.

M. Laitman: Again.

Reading: (53:59) 29. Rabash. Assorted Notes. Article 300. “A Land Where You Will Eat Bread Without Scarcity”

This is what it means that one must engage in Torah day and night, that the night and the day should be equal for him, as written in The Zohar (BeShalach).

M. Laitman: It's clear that day and night are states; it's not that it's dark outside or something.

Reading: (54:18) 29. Rabash. Assorted Notes. Article 300. “A Land Where You Will Eat Bread Without Scarcity”

In other words, the state of completeness called “day,” and the state of incompleteness called “night,” should be equal. That is, if his aim is for the sake of the Creator then he agrees that he wants to bring contentment to his Maker, and if the Creator wants him to remain in the state of incompleteness, he agrees to this, as well. The consent is expressed by doing his work as if he were rewarded with wholeness. This is regarded as “agreeing,” when the day and the night are equal to him.

But if there is a difference, to the extent of the difference, there is separation, and on that separation there is a grip to the outer ones. Hence, if a person feels that to him there is a difference, he must pray to the Creator to help him so there will not be a difference for him, and then he will be rewarded with completeness.

Question (Santiago): (55:53) What does it mean to be rewarded with perfection? What does it mean, what does it mean to receive a reward for the intention?

M. Laitman: A reward for the intention?

Student: When you get a reward for the intention?

M. Laitman: This is a feeling that you have come closer to the Creator, that in the middle line, in the group, the Creator is revealed to you. This is the reward according to equivalence of form, that you have attained it. You have made this connection, you have built the middle line, because it does not exist in nature. In nature, you have only the will to receive that appears on the left line, and the force of the light, or the force of connection that appears on the right. And when you combine the two, you build the middle line, and in it, you feel the Creator. That is why it says, You have made Me, you have built Me, you have created Me. This is called, My sons have defeated Me: I gave them the will to receive, this corrupted thing, and they knew how to add it to the light and make it into a state where, specifically, because of the will to receive, I can appear in them, and by that, they have defeated Me! That, specifically when you reject a person from holiness – from the light – there, I will be revealed, and how much? 620 times more than how I was before.

Question (Ashkelon 3): (57:59) What is the outer ones? And how can they have a grip on me?

M. Laitman: The externals in the spiritual work refers to all the disturbances that the Creator is sending, specifically in order to awaken us. To arrange us better, to shake us up, to give us more discernments. Because all of our discernments, all of our feelings, everything, our feeling of life is only between darkness and light, darkness, and light – between these two. And then the externals are those who come when you have thoughts, desires, all those instances, and they prick us. Why should you work, why should you do? Let it go, and so on and so forth. They give us an awakening, because if they would not give us an awakening, we will fall asleep. We cannot do it without the left, without the Klipa, without those pricks, you'll see. Like, look at Kyiv 1. Up until a month, he would ask us, ask us, ask us, on fire, burning, burning, burning, the friend. And now, he calmed down – he is waving to us – soon he'll wave to us from farther and farther away, what does it mean? We're lacking troubles, problems.

And then we get them through various awakenings. If we will not help one another, we will need to wait for the Creator to prick to us, to give us a certain trouble, because I won't be able to move by myself. He can tell me beautiful things about spirituality – no, I work only from the feeling of the deficiency, from within. And therefore, each shall help his friend; we need to awaken one another. And to pray that the Creator will also advance us, and His advancement is by awakening our ego, our will to receive, disturbances. If we know how to pray over the bad as over the good, then we are ready to advance.

Question (Kyiv 1): (01:00:56) How do I advance then, ask for the left line to come? I mean, you expect suffering? I mean, we do connect every morning, we do the work, so ask for the left line?

M. Laitman: You have a Schatz, you have a Gabbi?

Student: Yes.

M. Laitman: They do their work?

Student: Yes, each and every day, a few times a day, we work on the prayer.

M. Laitman: The Shatz and Gabbai, they awaken the group for deficiencies, they awaken it, somehow?

Student: Well, there is a feeling that this work is becoming outdated – maybe here we don't have enough fire, so how do we add it? That's also where the question comes from, should we add to the left line so it will burn?

M. Laitman: No, no, you can't, it's forbidden, it will be artificial, it's not good. You need to begin with gratitude to the Creator, forcefully, to come closer to Him by force. And then you'll see how much you're not in it, and from that you'll get the left line. Only by the right, do not awaken the left — you cannot awaken the left.

Student: How can we all, as a Ten, give gratitude to the Creator, how do we do it practically?

M. Laitman: You don't know how to be grateful? You can sit down and talk amongst yourself how good He's doing to you. How much good He's doing by doing this and this to you, and brought this to you, and done this to you. Start doing it, and if you can't, take a suitable article from Rabbah or Baal HaSulam, or a letter where he writes very beautifully. Both Rabbah and Baal HaSulam, they write to their students when they were traveling abroad, they were far from their students, so they wrote to them to awaken them. It was tough, Rabash also writes: It's been two months since I received a letter from anyone – they didn't have the internet back then. He lived in the UK and they didn't write to him, as if they forgot about him. So, he writes to them, what's happening? And they can't awaken themselves. Try to understand this.

Student: You said that one will drift away, more and more, and this is truly my greatest fear I'm very much afraid of it! So how can I give myself some guarantee, stick to the group so it won't happen?

M. Laitman: Only by building such systems and forcefully awakening yourselves. This is great work, by this is true work, this is correct work! By this means that you are building the Creator!

Student: This depends on how much we will make the right thing greater between us? Is this the guarantee that none of us will drift away from the work?

M. Laitman: If you don't look after yourselves, no one will help you because you are now in a Ten. In the Ten, each one is responsible for everyone else. The Creator brings you to the place, and He says, Take it – He says to each one, Take it. And if you don't take it, then you won't take. It's very simple. You remember what it says in the article, The Freedom? See what it says there, more than that, He will not do for you. He will do it through suffering but who knows when that will come. When you agree for the suffering, you can't stay in this slow-cook state, it squeezes you dry, and you don't see the goal, and nothing – it's a terrible feeling. But the Creator, because He gave you all the conditions, so use them.

Question (Kyiv 1): (01:06:03) You said that we have to build a system, right, but this is not about building some internal spiritual systems. If I understand you correctly, you are talking about external systems that will engage in increasing the fire, right?

M. Laitman: I refer to the connection between you that needs to be as tight as possible, and each will help his friend, and each one is responsible for his friend's advancement or lack. And by that, he protects himself, maintains his progress. If I want to advance, I need to ensure that the group advances, that's how it is.

Student: If I'm a small fire, what kind of system will awaken me? So, should we build something that we work in? Because I can just stay for years in such a state?

M. Laitman: I promise to you that if you won't do what's needed of you, you'll go through years like that, and die and will be reborn, and again die, and spend years like that.

Student: So, what is this system?

M. Laitman: You want to speak and not hear: Invest in the group, period. There's nothing more. Write before you, write that down because you can ask it a thousand times more.

Question (New York 4): (01:07:43) We are going through very strong and difficult states. Is there a sign that we're doing the work successfully, or only to expect additional burdening?

M. Laitman: If you get additional burdening, this is a sign of success!

Question (Florida): (01:08:12) Is it importance of the goal that should be equal in the two states of darkness and light, what should be equal?

M. Laitman: They should both be equal, one can that be without the other?

Question (Latin 7): (01:08:49) Can Chafetz Chesed be considered as the middle line? I'm asking because the state of wholeness – it seems like the end of correction. So, why would a person want to come out of this state of wholeness?

M. Laitman: First of all, Chafetz Chesed, delighted in mercy is not the end of correction. You cannot advance from Chafetz Chesed: Delighted in mercy is not wholeness. It's in the middle, it's along the way, it's a state on the path. We need to always yearn for how to overcome the will to receive to get faith above reason and then from both to build the middle line.

Question (KabU 1): (01:09:53) How in practice can our environment accelerate the speed at which we move from the left line to the right line?

M. Laitman: Only with the effort between you, as much as possible. Don't let things calm down, don't let anyone calm down.

Question (Bulgaria): (01:10:34) As I'm listening, I don't know if I hear correctly or not: You're saying we need to ask also for the good and for the bad?

M. Laitman: No, we have to scrutinize things, and bless for the bad as for the good – to bless. If we get something, if we get bad, it's a sign we're opening up the will to receive that's in us even more, and we can add it to the intention to bestow. This is how it will happen: We will work with the left, which is a will to receive, with the right that we get from above, the intention from above; and we place the right on the left and advance. An additional will to receive comes, we bring more intention to bestow and advance some more; this is how we work.

Student: But how will it not become artificial when I really give gratitude from the heart?

M. Laitman: It will come later by itself, don't worry. The main thing is to try to build this principle – Love covers all crimes – that's what the work in the group is like.

Reader: Let's summarize the words that we heard in the lesson workshop. Our whole work is the work in the group.
