1. Rav’s Introduction: We learn from the wisdom of Kabbalah that what the Kabbalists discovered for thousands of years, what is the reason for creation, the purpose of creation and how it evolves, according to what laws, and how it unfolds and comes to us, and ultimately we see that the Creator broke shattered this one Kli that He created, and many different desires, foreign desires were made and therefore into each other it’s all the shattering of a single desire, so every piece feels itself as individual, separate, different from others, rejecting the others, instinctively, and they too reject him and that is how we evolve. 

Humanity evolved further and further through still, vegetative, animate and human and the human beings developed by these growing desires. Desires that are demonstrating their independence and remoteness from each other and oppositeness to each other. And so on every level of the still, vegetative, and animate and speaking, we have a rejection force and an attraction force. In the still, vegetative and animate, it is natural, it allows all these levels to exist, instinctively, meaning by Nature, independent of any of those individual elements. On the human level there is also a pulling force that happens in natural proximity, such as between the genders and so on. But in actuality not really between humans. So the Creator, the general force that shattered the collective Kli, the desire, to many desires makes sure that these desires also grow and learn, how they are opposite, and different and remote from each other. And, ultimately, they discover that they need and they are dependent on each other, and when they join each other that has a lot of benefit in addition to their remoteness as well.

We can see that even in our time, we know that as beneficial as connection can be between people, nations, countries, we still put a lot of effort, a lot of power, a lot of it means, instead of building a collective life and collaborating, we put it into war, and destruction, and trying to cancel out each other. So when you look at humanity and how everyone is playing this game of keeping separate from each other instead of attaining the benefit of connection with each other, that’s just a shame, that people do not realize that this is how the Creator is playing with us. That we have to maintain that negative force, not to cancel it, but rather as it says, love covers all crimes. That above the minus we bring the plus, and then we put together a system that contains all of the negative force and the positive force, and the good force will cover the bad force, will overpower the bad force and this way when we assemble the system, we can enjoy it in full. And that essentially is the goal of the shattering that happened, to discover how much there are forces, latent within us that are good and that are positive, the light excels from the darkness. If you don't discover the darkness, we don’t really discover the light, and all the discernments that exist in the light. Therefore, we have to go through all of the bad states as it is said, there will be evening and then there will be dawn. Meaning day and night, night and day, there is always “love covers all crimes.”

First of all, there are crimes and then there is connection, and this is our work. And so we need to assemble such a system in a way that includes both of the opposite forces and the connection between them won’t be a short-circuit like plus minus short-circuiting itself, cancelling each other. Instead we need to assemble the current through a resistor, so there is resistance between the two and yet they connect on top of our resistance, the plus and minus build a productive capacity, a productive work and that's is our work, that we stand between the plus and minus the Creator created the evil inclination, as it says and that there is the upper light which we draw through our efforts which is the good inclination, and between the bad and good inclination we exist, our effort, our labor is there and so the system called Adam HaRishon which the Creator created in this minimal fashion where it is sustained by His force, we then take that system and fulfill it with our effort, with our capacity.

Then the plus and minus, the good force and the bad force can work together in that system as two opposite forces that do not cancel each other. They only exist one against the other in order to reveal our work in the system of Adam HaRishon. As the light excels from the darkness. These two forces work to illuminate all the light of Ein Sof in this system, which was broken due to lack of connections between all the pieces.  And when we make the efforts and we complete the full quota of the labor in order to connect these forces in us, then we have one collective desire and there the light appears in full. That is essentially what we discover.

Now, the connection happens gradually. Most importantly we need to see the system in a technical fashion. Why is it good to see it in a technical fashion? Because that is independent of our emotions. Our emotions can really go all the way from plus to minus, from rejection to connection, from hate to love and it is a good thing that we go through these fluctuations and changes all throughout the spectrum. But when we keep remembering that we exist in the system of Adam and that is the whole of Nature and we need to bring it to the right kind of connection, then we are not so dependent on our emotional states.

The mind sustains us and we engage in the wisdom of Kabbalah, the wisdom of connection, and whatever emotions appear in there, that’s on every level, there is a different emotion whether it is plus or minus. Most importantly is that we keep moving forward to a complete connection, and complete connection is called love. So, using emotional words, we should say, from the love of created beings to the love of the Creator. That’s how we advance. Love of the Creator means the complete love of the whole system, where both the light and the Kli become revealed together in connection, in reciprocity, where when one holds the other and it starts from love of created beings.

Love of created beings is that we try to somehow come together in the tens. So, we try. Let’s try each time, but we also have to hold ourselves at the goal and the goal is to achieve such a connection between us that we won't even feel a difference between us. That our desires, our emotions are all becoming connected to a single emotion where everyone compliments the others, and all the others build and complement each and every one. 

That of course is irrelevant to our bodies, our bodies belong to the animate level. We are talking about a connection between us on the speaking level, on an emotional level that begins from unfounded hatred. It is unfounded because there is no reason for it other than the fact that the Creator created it and we then need to achieve brotherly love meaning that we become as one man in one heart, that one heart is what we need. It will happen, we don't need to try to take examples from this world, where people here are just conducting power struggles, power games and especially if we look at all the relationships between the countries, and the diplomats, and all that they do, it’s children’s play, looks like children being prideful in the sandbox, who’s is doing more and so on. We rather have to look at the goal of life that we are in a process that is now becoming materialized. We have already gone through many lifetimes together, thousands of years if you will, we exist, and we reincarnate and keep moving and there is no chance, there is no coincidence that we are here now. It is all calculated in the system of Adam and therefore we have to be together, we have to come to a connection between us. Whoever falls, falls. That, too, probably is fate. But we have to try to recognize our system and all of us, all of us will come to a mutual connection in harmony and love. And love is the strongest connection that we attain. So, love the friend as yourself, and love thy Lord, which is the Creator, the Creator is the general system that appears that as in total. The Creator is the totality. It’s the totality of all the souls and their source, that is what becomes revealed and it is still ahead of us. So now in the meantime we need to try and hold that picture as much as we can, and from that picture we need to relate to whatever incidents we see in life, in the group, in the worldwide Bnei Baruch, and we see how the Creator through this picture, if we see what is happening in humanity we will further and further understand the plan of creation, the process taking place. And we will see the Creator's work. We will discover Him through all kinds of specific events in humanity to the point we see the general Providence. And also, don't forget, that love, meaning mutual connection, a complete connection where we complement each other, where everyone only sees how he complements the others, that essentially is the state of existence of the collective soul.

2. S. (15:46) Is the dark condition here our evil inclination? Is this always gradually forming as we reveal and overcome this evil inclination?

R. Evolves meaning, unfolds, it does not develop. the Creator created the will to receive then broke it. All the pieces intermingled, that is what we learn through TES, in the shattering of the Kli, and how all the vessels fall from the degree of Atzilut through the degrees of Beria, Yetzira, Assiya down to the level of this world, how they mingle and those that are above, fall the most below and so on. So, these souls that we see today that are surfacing for correction, are actually high souls, lofty souls but they fell deeper, and that’s why only now they appear. So, we are going to have to learn this whole process and correct, connect. All the souls have to go through the correction. Everyone has to take what they have got, rise to their place, become connected to the whole system, first through the ten which the Creator arranges for us, and then the Creator changes all the tens. You will see also that perhaps, you will suddenly at some point, in some state will start finding different connections, you will see this way or that way, and it is not like you see that you are now thinking about it this way, but the higher Providence will start changing things and moving things. It doesn't matter for us, what matters for us is to always aim ourselves to the general connection, the global connection.

3. S. (18:25) By aiming myself toward connection, you said that between plus and minus we should establish a certain voltage, work, what does it mean?

R. If you take plus and minus and you connect them you get a short circuit, right? Because you cannot connect plus and minus, they are opposites. So, we have to position between us work, workload, resistor. If we work together on our nature, then we build between us something we call exertion, effort, where everyone tries to adapt himself to the other, and by trying to do that we are building between us a minimal system of the Creator because I relate to you with love and connection, and you relate to me with love and connection, and everyone of us takes a force of bestowal from the Creator and relates to the other that way. If we build between us, between everyone and one the other, we build a minimal creator, a small creator, a system that has these bonds, these connections, even love later on, so when we build these little systems between us, this is me and you and we build such a system, I work in bestowal towards you, you work in bestowal towards me. Bestowal is already the force of the Creator, we build between us the Creator. This is called, you have made me. And then, between each and every one we build these passageways which are the quality of the Creator between us, so He is connecting us and ultimately when we all connect together this way, this is what is called, you have made me, we build the Creator. And then it appears so it appears that why did He shatter us, so that we discover Him, so that we will feel Him in such a way that we weren’t basically created by the Creator we, as if, give birth to the Creator and by that we come to equivalence of form with Him, we come to sympathize with Him, understand Him exactly as He understands us and that brings complete adhesion.

4. S. (21:19) All the contradictions in the world push us toward the Creator but is there a contradiction we can bring the Creator to make Him happy?

R. Every time you appear before the friend as wanting to connect with him despite the rejection, despite the rejection, by that you make the Creator happy. We have to understand, we must not forget about the force of resistance, resistance needs to happen, needs to be there, love covers all crimes. Without crimes you won’t see love. When people are developed, when developed people, when can they come to love? When they discover how opposite and different and in disagreement they are, and yet on top of all of that they build a healthy, conscious attitude towards reality and that it comes from the Creator, and the Creator is between them. They don’t each relate what they have to themselves or what the other has to the other. They recognize that what is happening between them, the negative things between them, are all created by the Creator in order for them to build the right bond of love, the positive connection between them. That’s the only way to achieve complete eternal connection.

5. S. (23:30) How important is it, this current, is it related to recognition of evil, in order to be able to work with this current, that we can use in order to feel this state you talk about?

R. If we are in these lessons, in these conversations like I am now giving you now before the actual lesson, and we learn this material, you know and you already feel that from day to day we are getting closer in understanding, in feeling, to seeing this system that exist between us, and discovering the system is discovering the upper reality, the upper world and there we will discover the force that operates in the operated ones. We are the operated ones and He operates in us and that depends on how much we want to be operated by Him, how much we present ourselves to Him and give ourselves to Him, to appear between us, and this way, we as a Kli, we are as a Nukva, female towards Him, we give ourselves to Him so that He arranges us and fulfills us. That’s our work and it becomes revealed, it becomes apparent in the world as well, bit by bit, in our time, the whole world is starting to move closer to this, you will see more and more such states will appear in the world, and let's hope that they will go through without any acceleration, let’s hope that that they won't be accelerated by war, rather by our work.

6. S. (26:02) You said that we have to reveal the darkness in order to reveal the light. What does it mean to reveal the darkness in our work?

R. To discover the darkness in our work means that that we discover how much we don’t want to connect, there is a rejection, there is inability to overcome it, we say nice words, but in practice it doesn’t work. That means that one’s heart and mouth are not the same. With my mouth I can say that I am in spirituality, I’m connected to others, I love the others, I love the Creator, that’s with your mouth. But with your heart I’m not in it yet and with my heart, I can’t be in control of it. So, it turns out that with my mouth I can speak, but the heart is in its own place. So, then I have to realize that I can activate the heart only through the ten, only through the ten. So I have no choice, ultimately I have to integrate in the ten and feel that my heart begins to work, that they begin to influence me, they begin to change my heart, that I am not in control of it at all. Only the ten completely, and so I have to be educated, to submit myself, to really nullify before them so they influence my heart. That is the only way. Then, to the extent they influence me and my heart changes, then in my heart I begin to feel, first of all the feeling of connection, the feeling of love to an extent, to an extent, but still. I begin feel that I have a special kind of attitude to the whole of reality, to everyone, to all created beings and ultimately to the Creator, and in that sensation, I will start discovering the force of the Creator and how He operates me, and the others and all of us together, and in this gradual way it will become revealed.

7. S. (28:55) You said that we need to cover all the negative things in the ten with love, can you give an example?

R. This is what I just said. That if I try over many years to achieve something, I begin to fall into despair and if I don’t escape and nevertheless continue, then I ultimately turn to the ten. I want to annul before them, I have no choice, I see that if I do not integrate in them, then I am going to continue to the end of life this way, until I will die, nothing will come out of that. My egotistic force is pushing me to the ten, and then I need to do all sorts of actions here in order to integrate in them, so somehow it starts to work a little bit more, more and more to connect with all of them. The main thing I want is to serve them, and help them and do whatever possible. Then I begin to feel, after these actions, I begin to feel that the Creator begins to change me. He begins to change me. I begin to feel that I have, that He has such a relationship to me, to the point that I begin to want to love, and when I begin to want to love that is a more advanced stage, that I now know what connections I need to achieve with my ten and also with all the tens in Bnei Baruch, and then the whole world. Every ten, the whole world is just ten Sefirot of one Partzuf.  That is all of humanity. All the souls. And this is how I advance. So, my work is therefore to awaken the friends to love. Forcefully even if I am not attracted to it and I reject it and I push it away, I have no inclination to it because my heart is a heart of stone. That is actually for people who have a big will to receive and they have a lot of work but they also have a big role behind them, waiting for them in the collective soul, and this is why it is very difficult for them to achieve the implementation of these corrections; but afterwards, they reach very high degrees. So, I do whatever action I can to awaken love in the friends and that can happen in all kinds of ways, not necessarily in talking about it, and this way we advance. Most importantly to invest, to make efforts and to help each other. The connection in the ten is the most important thing. As Rabash writes, in Matan Torah, in Arvut, that we save a person from the river. A person falls into the river and is being thrown a rope or a life buoy to be saved, and in this way, we have to do this everyday in the tens. In each and every moment try to feel that we are in a very big, powerful current, they are trying to sway us away to all kinds of directions and yet we make an effort to be more and more connected, to the point that I want the friends to be part of me, that is what I want and all the friends that will put their parts into me and this way we will hold each other, and we want to be integrated with each other, all of us together. This way we’ll be able to guard our integration and according to the power of this integration we’ll discover the Creator, we will have a resistance to the integration. That force of resistance will be our Aviut, coarseness, that will start appearing, Aviut meaning the resistance to connection, to integration, and by holding on to that integration we will discover the force of Oneness which is the Creator and that is called the revelation of the Creator to the created being. There is practical work in front of us, we are right at the entrance, so we have to really process it well within us and try to realize it.

8. S. (35:14) The friends are raising a prayer in the ten three times a day. What is the correct prayer, what is the correct deficiency to pray for, when will we reach the state where our hearts and mouths are equal, can you give us an example?

R. I do not have an example for this besides the example of Noam Eli Melech, and the articles, each and every article has a part that you can call a prayer. Try to read that and find it. 

9. S. (36:04) When we build a system from the broken state, the corrected state where love enters into this - what is this thing called love?

R. The perfect connection is called love. The ultimate connections, the end of all connections, at the end of each degree, where there is a connection after all the recognition of evil, scrutinizing of all kinds, ultimately you come to some connection, the maximum connection that we can build from a present state is called love. Love needs to be, first of all love of the created beings, love in the ten, and from the love in the ten we have to discover the love of the Creator to the ten. How much in our mutual love, in our connection, in our integration, in our devotion we do all that for the sake of the revelation of the Creator in us. To please Him, so He will enjoy from us and ultimately we really just discover phenomenon within us, we don't discover anything outside the Kli, but this phenomenon which feels detached completely from our initial will to receive and is entirely built on the will to receive and the will to bestow together, as it says, love covers all crimes. The crimes that are built in, we discover them, we correct them, we connect them, we correct them through connection, we connect them through threads of connections to each other, and then we come to the general force of love which is called the revelation of the Creator.

S. When we are building the connection on the current degree what is the difference exactly between Creator and love?

R. We build within our Kli devotion and connection that is called love between us. It is such an integration that everyone is included in everyone else to the point that we are capable, and ready and wanting and willing, and as much as we are capable of discovering it on our degree and in this integration which is called the maximum connection that we can achieve. In that connection, we discover a mutual feeling called love. Love is not that I love someone and someone else loves me, it is that both of us together discover what is common, in our feelings and that is what we call love. In this common feeling, we discover the cause to you and me, which is the Creator.

10. S. (39:37) How can a friend who has a stony heart awaken love?

R. We don’t just have a stony heart. The Creator created Adam HaRishon on the level of an angel, on the level of Bina and He broke him, and showed him his matter by that. As it says, from the ashes you come and to the ashes you go back. So the Creator created him as a creation, meaning outside of the Creator's degree, raised him to the degree of Bina, he was in the degree of Bina, in the degree of Katnut - infancy, and then he broke, and was shattered and became integrated, with his will to receive which was at first hidden on the level of Bina, so then it became revealed. That's what’s called, to the ashes you shall go back, and then we need to sort out and arrange our qualities where we have a huge will to receive and everyone has a spark of the upper light of the Creator, of bestowal and that is why we are called Adam according to that spark, in everyone that spark is there, in everyone who is a human being in this world, but in some, it already appeared and they have realized themselves in previous times, in previous years and in some people it appears now, in others it'll appear in the future. But now, it appears in a global Kli and there is also a global Providence that appears, and everything is happening in the framework of all of humanity, in everyone, together. That is why we are now in the beginning of this process and in each and every one there is his will to receive and his spark, and we need to sort them out, connect them, and all this sorting and organizing is only in the ten. Those who are capable of being in the ten are arranging themselves to be the head of Adam HaRishon. That’s why such inclinations appear in them and those who can't, who only feel their will to receive, will probably belong to the body of Adam HaRishon, so we will need both the head and the body to work together. To the point that we correct this whole general Kli, until it becomes round and spherical, like one giant sphere and then there would be no difference between Rosh, Toch, and Sof. And everyone shall know me from the greatest to the littlest, as it says. Meaning we will all connect and the Creator will appear equally to all.

S. Our goal is adhesion in the Creator and love is the result of that?

R. The complete adhesion in each and every degree, the last degree which we achieve on all levels from the Shoresh, Aleph, Bet, Gimel, Dalet, when it is attained, when I attain the sum total of all these degrees, after I have attained all of these degrees, there is the integration of sorts, of all of them, so there, that adhesion, on each and every level, is called love. It’s the attainment of the Creator on each and every degree.

11. S. (43:57) Will the spiritual parts exist inside of us or in the ten?

R. In the person there is only a bad force and a spark that pushes him towards correction, nothing else than that. If he wants to open himself up and advance, he has to be connected to others, all of the correction of the shattering of Adam HaRishon is only through the connection. This is why I started our talk today saying that you have to hold that picture of connecting the pieces of Adam HaRishon and what you are asking now is totally opposite. I want everyone to see that. We must not detach from this general picture of the broken Kli, all those pieces and we have to come to the connection of all those pieces. So, no one can correct himself; how will I correct myself? My whole correction is in connection to everyone. The shattering, the corruption is that the Creator shattered the Kli and that is what we need to do, this is what He expects us to do.

12. S. (45:18) Following that, you said we have to complement each other, what is the thing that I cannot attain on my own and the friend complements me and that he doesn’t attain on his own and I complement him?

R. We read about it in the articles of our Baal HaSulam, about the Arvut, we have to go back to the article, the Arvut, mutual guarantee and see. It is not just some Arvut where we will require confidence from one another, whether I can’t attain my general form, as it is a part of me, resides in the entire Kli. In Adam HaRishon all of the parts were included in one another, it was a complete vessel, the upper light would hold them together in this way. Now, what happened is this system, the Adam HaRishon shattered, but each and everyone, there is a Reshimot from the entire system. Until we realize these Reshimot, we have to connect ourselves in spite of the ego which is revealed, we have to connect everyone, between us, and then by that we will realize our correction. No one can find his soul, discover their soul except on the condition that he is connected with everyone. But everyone means that at least with the ten for the time being, and then we continue later on. Do not leave the form of Adam HaRishon, from the entire system. It has to be before us as the goal, as something we have to do. This is what the Creator gave us to do and God forbid, if you begin to speak only about yourselves, you immediately disconnect from spirituality, even the smallest depiction in your brain would say, “I” that’s it, you are disqualified and you are outside of spirituality. The "I" is the "I" who is connected and interdependent with the entire system of Adam HaRishon, at least in the ten.

13. S. (47:59) When there comes a certain disturbance, a problem which is corporeal, external, something I did not want and when it comes from some friend how do I relate to this. Did this happen because something is wrong with the group, do we have to pray better, what is the right way to be more with the friends and the lesson?

R. First of all of it comes from the Creator, only. He is the reason for everything, there is none else besides Him, even though it comes through the friends, from the family, from my boss at work or someone else, and on the street. Everything always comes from the Creator, I am connected only with the Creator. The Creator hides behind everybody but He works on me through everybody. Imagine that you are connected with one single source only, which is the Creator and there is none else besides Him, other than Him there is nothing. Everything else is simply how He presents Himself to you. It does not mean that you have to love everyone as they appear this way, but you have to hold yourself in such a way, that this is the Creator that is revealing Himself before you. In order to give you an opportunity to first of all hold on to Him, and to improve the situation, improve your attitude to Him through the world, through the group until you come to adhesion with Him in each and every state. This is how you need to accept reality.

14. (50:23) We talked about the life buoy, each throwing a rope to each other in the group, serving this rope or life buoy, how not to turn it into a whip?

R. I do not understand this attitude to the friends, that you need a whip or a stick, only give them a hand, throw them a rope so they would catch that rope and you can pull them out. This is the only way to relate to the friends. That kind of a desire to beat each other up to harm each other, this is worse than harming yourself, it is worse than wanting to harm the Creator. The attitude to the others, to the friends has to be of utmost importance before everything else. The Creator forgives everything that you will do against Him but towards your friends you need to understand that here, the laws are super strict, you have to reach love and if hate appears, it appears only in order to cover it with Love.

15. S. (52:26) What is the true intention when we are connecting to friends and how can we reinforce this intention?

R. We wish to connect with the friends since between us, we wish to reveal the Creator, the force of love, the force of connection, integration. Gradually, but nevertheless more and more connection, and in truth this is how I need to connect to all people in the world, to everybody in the world.  Although there are those I do not know and I do not understand them, I hate them as you want, like all people, I am not corrected yet but I need to understand that it is all revealed in me, so I would reveal myself as loving everybody, embracing everyone, helping everyone, holding everyone and presenting this connection to the Creator, so He would fill them. This is what He wishes everyone to do, this means that I am realizing my point in the heart, I am connecting them all and I offer them to the Creator. I feel, in the connection between everyone my desire and then Creator fills it.

16. S. (54:12) Why does the feeling of hatred come in such a way to the person, why does it not appear as a general force, why is it so personal?

R. The feeling of hate is an extremely personal feeling, it exists in everybody. Those who do not reveal it now, it will be revealed later. This hate, like the students of Rabbi Shimon, what kind of hate they uncovered between them, they wanted to kill each other. You understand what we are talking about, it was the students of Rabbi Shimon in high spiritual degrees, such hate would appear between them that they wanted to kill each other, and they wrote in the book of Zohar about it. We have to understand that we constantly reveal hate, rejection, separation between us more and more, like in this upside-down cone, the more we grow we discover more the will to receive and consequently, hate. Accordingly, we can work with it and cover it with love. Cover it, not neutralize it, not destroy it, but cover it with love, and this is what we need to teach to the people of the world. They think you can destroy all the evil and replace it with good. There is no bad without good, there is no good without bad, we have to reveal the good and the hate appears in order to reveal the good, and the good and bad will live together and between them we will have our exertion, they will never separate. Then this plus and minus we talked about, the load that exists, the engine develops from plus and minus, this is our work, our exertion, and this is how it will work. 

17. S. (56:32) In the beginning of the lesson you said if I'm willing to serve the friends to care for them, then I have an assurance a promise from the Creator and I feel in this concern some process that I go through, sometimes I don't feel, is there a promised action towards the friends in the ten afterwards which the Creator will certainly awakened changes in me?

R. You will certainly advance if you constantly care about your annulments before the friends to bring them to connection with the Creator.

18. S. (57:28) We learn that we must not leave the form of Adam HaRishon and is the system enough for us to come to full recognition of evil?

R. Adam HaRishon includes everything inside of him, all of reality, all the worlds it is all included in an Adam HaRishon, the will to receive the Creator created the entire system we are learning about, it is all Adam Ha’Rishon. There is nothing more than that, there is nothing less than that, it is the complete system. We have to locate it, see it as broken. That’s how it was given to us and corrected by coming close between us and close to the Creator. That’s how it is.

19. S. (58:45) The complete connection, is it felt in the vessels of reception?

R. The complete connection appears in a combination between the Sefirot which is both vessels of reception and vessels of the bestowal working together in mutual support in order to reveal the complete connection. There cannot be a connection unless opposite forces emerge in it because when we rise above the resistance between them for the sake of connection.

20. S. (59:37) What is the difference between hating the friend in the ten, or someone off the street?

R. If you enter the ten, by that you obligate you commit to loving everyone whereas toward the people on this street you don't have such a commitment. You have to worry about the connection in the ten and there you begin to reveal spirituality, later it will obligate you to relate to everyone like that. The light will come and show you how to relate to everyone in the world in the form of love.

S. In the meantime when I hate someone off the street, how do I relate to him?

R. You’d have to talk about it, you’d have to think about it, you just have to concentrate yourself in the ten, you don't have the power to love who you hate, not yet, learn about it in the ten.

21. S. (01:00:56) In our world people feel common feelings on many levels from a musical concert to other things. What characterizes this common feeling, spiritual feeling you call love?

R. Above reason, above our individual desires since I would never connect with those people I have in my ten, would not agree with people I have in the ten to be in support and love, no, what for? But only in order to attain the root of my soul, spirituality, connection with the Creator, bestowal, this is why I am in a ten, and I am accepting these laws and I commit to reach mutual support with them. It is not the same as people on the street. Right now I owe them nothing, I relate nicely and kindly to them wanting us to reach this entire vessel of Adam HaRishon but relative to the people on the street I have only the ability to work in dissemination and that is what we have to do, not more than that. I don't connect with them, I merely try to be a pipeline in order to give them the upper light for the Creator to take care of them. That is my commitment in the general Arvut, whereas in the group I commit to be the connective force in each ten this has to be the role of each and every person.

S. What is a shared emotion, a common feeling, what I feel hate, love, rejection towards a friend what's the difference between that and the shared feeling?

R. We can't feel it yet this is the center of the group where we build the Keter, the common force, the place where we would reveal our common root which is the Creator. It will come, it is not working schematically exactly in the same way that we're describing right now.

22. S. (01:03:44) What does it mean to bring the friends to a connection with the Creator? 

R. Give an example. When you invest yourself, all of you, in the connection in the entire ten, this way you also wish to attain the Creator, egotistically you have no choice, this is your vessel, you must assemble it in order to reveal Him. He is not revealed in less than ten so I must bring my entire ten to connection between them to such a level of connection, a quality of connection, that in that connection, the Creator will be revealed.  The form of connection, the level, the quality of it has to be at a bare minimum such that the Creator will be revealed there on the 1st degree, the smallest degree, Nefesh de Nefesh de Nefesh, this is how it is called.

23. S. (01:05:09) Myself as an individual I can bring the whole ten to a connection?

R. Each one from the ten must do it, this Rabash writes in the social articles.

24. S. (01:05:26) There is a part in me that is detached completely from the lesson, another part clings to the Rav, the friends, connects everything to the Creator, It seems like this split, I don't know what to do with this whole confusion, I don't know how to work with it from now on?

R. Work only with a part that is connected to everyone, increase it and grow it until it feels everything.

25. S. (01:06:01) When he spoke about dissemination and Arvut I wanted to clarify, how is the Arvut connected to disseminating the upper light?

R. Because each and everyone is responsible for the whole of reality, the vessel of Adam HaRishon, hence  I have to be responsible for the correction of the whole world, each and every one because I am included in the entire world and there is a part of me that is included in the entire world. Therefore, I need to care for the correction of the entire world and this is done only by disseminating. So, we need to invest part of our strength at least in dissemination.

26. S. (01:07:06) You said that on the one hand I have to hold this whole picture of Adam in mind and all of the events of all human beings, connect all of them to none else besides Him. On the other hand, there's the formula of the ten, which they're all so I tried to build the shape of the Creator, what is the difference between this or that shape?

R. Relative to you of course those are different things, but there's nothing complicated or different here. Rather the Creator that is revealed, in the general vessel of the world appears to you and the ten if you would be able to detect the Creator both here and there you would see the difference between those vessels. For the time being you have neither, after all it is one force and it only depends on your resolution how to detect it. There is no ten and humanity and it's all you looking at reality.

27. S. (01:08:25) The students of Rabbi Shimon when they hated each other to the point that they wanted to kill each other, why did they hate each other?

R. This is how the egoistic will to receive was revealed in each one of you and soon let us hope it will be revealed in us. It is a sign of advancement because he who is greater than his friend, his inclination is greater as well.

S. Hatred is an emotion that doesn't require explanation?

R. Hate requires no explanation just like love when you attain it completely requires no explanation. Because these two forces; love is the force of the Creator and hate is the diametrically opposite force from it.

28. S. (01:09:25) A friend humiliated me, stepped on my pride and so on, and I have a desire to avenge him. How can I feel that and love in parallel?

R. The Creator, ask Him why he did it to you?

S. How to do what you said to put my part into the friends and all the friends parts into me?

R. Open your heart. Work on that, be as straightforward with the group as possible, open your heart.

29. S. (01:10:28) We heard you saying that we should not yearn for the evil inclination to be revealed. So how do we reach evil in order to build a bigger love?

R. In each and every degree in every state we have to yearn for connection and for adhesion in the Creator and whether or not the evil inclination will be revealed is not my problem, God forbid, I don't care about it, I'm not worried about it. I worry only about connection and adhesion in the Creator. The moment we attain connection in some level of adhesion in the Creator according to our state then the new degree appears. It appears because the evil inclination is revealed, meaning the corrupt desire appears on a higher degree. This means that we have reached a new day that starts with night. And again, we will have to work on it, on the connection, until we work we reach correction, when we reach correction, it is all revealed again. It all starts from darkness until we turn the darkness to light.

Excerpt Rabash “You have to keep awakening the love of the Creator....”(01:12:05 - 01:13:25)

R. Clear? Maybe, by that we have concluded the preparation for the lesson. Now let’s start the lesson.

30. S. (01:13:42) It was said in the excerpt “day to day utters speech and night to night expresses knowledge”, what is the difference between speech and knowledge here?

R. It is not important, don't get stuck to certain words, think about it and you will see it is not a problem.
