Preparation for Opening the Heart at the Congress - Selected Excerpts from the Sources. #9

1. Rav’s Introduction: (02:00) Yes, so we are continuing yesterday or starting today how does it work? We are continuing that same preparation for the Congress that we started yesterday was a good lesson. We had a good attitude or approach and we are getting closer to a good opinion today nine right? so let us start and we will see where it will take us. So please.

Reading Excerpt 9 (02:31) “Let me remind you the validity of love of friends in spite ….”

2. R. (05:16) This means that we have nothing more to correct besides the connection between us and even though these things are so ordinary that we understand that through connection or through the distance between people we measure all of our relationships and our whole life depends on that however truly on the other hand we are not aware of how much specifically on that the whole thing depends. It is about the distance which we can determine or establish between us this is the most internal element in reality and it determines everything in the world from the state that exists between people and the states that exist between the still vegetative and animate in all the moments and all the states and all the parts and this is why we should nevertheless again and again and again to focus on this to concentrate on this and to understand how only this determines the essence of reality the central point of reality is the point of connection between us and this is how we should hold it and cultivate it and feel it as the most important thing that if around this point we are able to connect then we arrange ourselves in it with a tight approach tight contact with the Creator and there's nothing else to do.

3. S. (07:50) What are these imaginary engagements that we have to stay away from?

R. Imaginary engagements means anything that a person does besides the purpose of creation. that he wants to realize the purpose of creation anything else is called and imaginary engagement because it does not bring him anything it only makes it even more complicated for him. Either you advance from your point that now you are given to feel that you are alive and exist directly towards the purpose of creation meaning connection with others in order to discover in this connection the Creator.

In the connection between us and there is the whole of the true reality above time place movement where you no longer belong to this imaginary world that you see right now and this is our goal and if you are not doing it then you are going according to your outlook your perspective on a level which is less than Adam less than resembling the Creator meaning you're going to be as a beast where everything that you have everything that is upon you is only toward the desire that are awakening in you right now. That is wrong this pull you away from path on the path towards the goal, and this is how you express yourself realize yourself.

4. S. (10:05) How to practically unite in love in the true measure?

R. Practically we connect from our desires from our thoughts where we are constantly think about in what true form as much as we can envision it more and more, how we need to be connected between us and when we depict this connection to ourselves when we are drawn to it in our mind and in our heart and in our desires and our actions in any way possible in order to achieve it to achieve this correct internal connection. Then this is how we begin to feel that we are getting help from above and the help is through two opposite elements one time we see how much we are not joining each other and we do not have a single heart not in the desire and not in actuality and the second time we do see that we are capable to be connected to some extent and this is how it is through the ascents and The descents through connection and coming closer to each other this is how we advance.

S. Typically we work in the 10 we feel the friends for 10 years now but there is a greater task here relative to gathering here the friends in the congress, How to feel love towards them?

R. Actually we need to reach because we are in the state of the last generation as Baal HaSulam says we need to reach the general connection of everyone and we are actually the first group that is shifting from the measure of the 10 to the general measure of the whole world. From the scale of the 10 to the scale of the world and so this is how we should behave that it doesn't matter how many people I see and that are here I need to see all of them all in all as my 10. So that I could be with an open heart with all of them because through these Collective hearts we connect to the purpose of creation the purpose of life the central point of the vessel of Adam HaRishon.

And besides that this Congress is an opportunity to connect more easily together as it is written in the multitude of people is the King's Glory and therefore as much as we have assembled here thousands of people and many more will come today. We will feel that specifically our connection is what is showing us the greatness of the vessel the depth of the vessel and how much we can be great and connected to each other. That is we should see the Congress specifically as an opportunity to enlarge the forces of each and everyone not to diffuse them but actually to enlarge them. let us continue..

5. S. (15:07) About the opportunity we discussed I feel we also carry a big responsibility, how can we engage and what the Creator wants us to do?

R. The Creator demands of us only connection because he broke us to begin with in order to prepare us this way to connect gradually between us so that in such a way achieve we Attain the two edges of creation this connection and connection and by being drawn to connection all of the time in spite of all the opposing forces by that we seemingly work against him and in this way we carry out the plan of creation that is it. This is the work meaning more than coming closer between us and in practice we do not need anything else.

6. S. (16:58) What sort of thoughts and proper tactics do we need to make the transition from our 10 in a proper way let us say to the whole world kli and to humanity? So what is our actual work here correct work?

R. Our practical work here the only one is to be connected into one 10 to add to this 10 from which we begin more and more and more to connect more partners and that is it we have nothing more to do but only to be connected. All in all the purpose of creation is to connect all of the parts of this broken vessel into a whole vessel into Adam HaRishon.

S. How do we make the transition to the whole world Klil from there?

R. We are all connected together the Creator arranges that and what is upon us is only to do what is within the range of our feeling the range of our perception as much as we are capable to be together with one another. This is how we need to be more connected to think about all of our friends all over the world who are not with us right now and it will work it will fall into place you will see how successful it will be. Don't resist the nearing the connection the attraction of the hearts towards each other don't be too shy or ashamed that I'm not like my friend etc but rather as much as possible we should be close to one another and we will begin to feel that the Creator is the one who is waiting for this common place in our heart which we are putting together.

S. Does it mean that now I'm from the Holland 10, so let's say I should be connected right now with a Holland friends all the time right you are saying now and through that now connect here to the friends here in the congress?

R. Yes, you in the Holland’s group and also inside of the Holland group you should feel that you're accepted receiving all of the friends in the world and that it doesn't diffuse you but rather it fills you it adds to you forces connection warmth power and this how you continue. Like I said already that you will feel even today how many more friends join us connect with us and tomorrow morning and the day after so you will see that indeed we have many many more friends who will happily take part together with us in the building of the vessel. Eeach one is in some small vessel and we will try to connect collect from all of them a great vessel.

7. S. (21:30) My heart is in the hands of the Creator and only he can soften it and the Creator is at the center of my 10 I left my friends behind me, how can I soften this heart with the prayer with my friends with this shape? How can I get out in this physical condition?

R. I don't think we need to come out of it we only need to connect all of these things together in the right way. I am inside the 10 my 10 is inside other tens all of the tens together or as one vessel as the Malchut of Ein Sof and we want to remain and be in that. However, we just want to attach ourselves to each other more and more and more so that we will feel ourselves as being being as one man in one heart in one body and to continue this way.

Excerpt 10 (23:30) “If there are a few people in the collective who can …..”

Rav: (25:13) Meaning that the person becomes the Creator's assistant when the person wants to awaken all the vessel and the Creator that he will help everyone this is how we advance. We pray we ask we are concerned for each other.

8. S. (25:45) How do we reach this point of detachment from the thoughts of self to being the Creator's assistant?

R. To the extent that we want to connect between us and to turn to him so that he will help so that he will organize our connection so that our request will be accepted and we will be able to reach his ear to that extent we become disconnected from our individual vessels, we become Incorporated with each other and we aim ourselves already all of us together to the Creator from a single vessel. This is our action, this is how we do it and there is nothing special in that but rather all in all what becomes disconnected what has been disconnected is the connection between us in the shattering of the vessel of Adam HaRishon and we have to bring it to correction to connection.

So all in all it is just inclination towards this to be connected together into one mouth one ear one heart one head and everything that we have that we would have only one vessel. In such a way we will come closer to being as one man in one heart to this extent we will be able to pass the request of our heart to the creator. To this extent we will feel how much he responds and this is how we will advance in feeling that we exist in a space in which the upper Force exists and he is waiting for us expecting us caring for us and helping us to be in the same wavelength in the same frequency as he operates meaning in the force of bestowal in concern for bestowal and we are ready to reach this point of connection together.

9. S. (29:14) What is that effort from the person that who kabbalists are calling a prayer? Is it in the feeling in the intellect and the desire and what?

R. Whatever comes out of the person's desire is called a prayer because we have no more than the desire if we could see the true picture of what we are who we are and what world we exist in what reality we exist then we would see that everything all in all is the feeling of our heart and there is no more than that. And so we need to see ourselves this way that we exist in a connection we exist together and in the upper force which is wrapping us engulfing us holding us and actually we just have to open up the connection from between us to him so that our desire will be similar to his desire and in that we will have the right connection between us to the Creator. That's it, we do not need more than that all in all by this we correct the vessel of Adam that was broken by this we connect with the Creator by this we connect between us and by this we reach the state of wholeness eternity the revelation of everything. All in all all of our work is only to find the point of connection between us, between each one and all the others, this is what I should be directed towards.

10. S. (32:04) We read that this is what the Creator feels is something important. It sounds like some calculation on the side of the Creator but it says the Creator something will be more beneficial for the Creator, why does he choose? What is necessar and what is not according to the excerpt?

R. Repeat please.

S. In the text we read it is written in the excerpt that what gives some that's something we'll give the Creator more contentment, it looks like the Creator is making some calculation about what will be more bestowing or not why?

R. The Creator makes this calculation so that we will understand which of our thoughts our desires actions is more important or less important so that we will advance in this way one after the other from the light things to the more complicated things from what belongs more to our study is important for us for now. And this is how we will advance and therefore all of our work is to understand what is it that the Creator wants from us and his desire is that we will constantly search for what is the most important and the most relevant point of connection and we will arrange it organize it and then more and more and more that this is our work. What is left for us is only a few points of connection on the way of each and every one so that we will begin to feel that we are truly in the general body in the world Kli that we are truly parts of the system of the Adam HaRishon and we will begin to feel what is happening in that system, it is all ahead of us.

11. S. (34:54) Up to which point do we need to connect with the friends when we feel them that they have no spirit that they are in a descent?

R. We first of all need to connect between us those that are in the right state in ascents you know in all kinds of attainments and connections so that we will have forces forces of connection and then out of this we need to turn to those people who fell from that degree that they are not there they do not want it maybe they are even against it etc . And this is how we will advance more towards the general connection of everyone we have great work ahead of us even though it is not so great this is what I wanted to say before that everyone thinks that billions of people are outside of our connection who are these billions of people that have no desire no thought no inclinations that are for or against or in any way they are just like the still vegetative and animate. They are all operated by the speaking degree by our degree and so if we into the extent that we will actualize our general connection in a way that is more directed more purposeful they will come along they themselves will join us, they will discover that here there are some sort of force of gravity that is pulling them and explaining to them fighting them and this is how everyone will come to actualize the connection.

12. S. (37:19) How can we join the awakening from below with the awakening from above?

R. The awakening from above exists we just need to discover it but as it is written that the eyes of the Lord are upon you from the beginning of the year to the end of the year and therefore we do not need to search for things on the side of the Creator, he is always ready always open always with an inclination towards you what we need to do is only to organize our appeal back to him.

13. S. (38:37) What is the connection to the Creator?

R. Connection to the Creator is the quality of the bestowal we wish to developed among the friends. We do not possess that quality from the outside we are completely opposite to the Creator we do not even know what is this opposite like because one quality cannot be truly clarified over the other. So what we need is to start attaining the quality of the bestowal according to the quality of the bestowal we will feel that they are that this quality exists in reality and it is a great revelation that we do not know it all because all that we have is the quality of reception we think we have the quality of the bestowal but in truth it is not true it is not present.

So when we get to the quality of the bestowal accordingly we come to the quality of the Creator and begin to feel that there is another force that can fill the world gradually that is how we discover it in accordingly we are attracted to it we are drawn to it we begin to know it and that's how we are going to come closer. This is our work and it all begins from the attitude between the friends as it's written from love of the creative beings to love of the Creator, why is that? because you have nowhere else from which to extract this quality of love of connection.

14. S. (41:10) The moment comes in which He is asking us to give up on ourselves in order to turn for the friend so that the Creator will hear our prayer. How can we do that?

R. As we approach the Creator there are several states and degrees along the way. I wish to connect with the friends in order to advance, then I begin to scrutinize and see that the connection with the friend is egoistic and that I'm not so drawn to it and then I'm drawn to it more purposefully. There are all kinds of discernments here that we cannot interpret yet but that is how they are revealed in us so what we have to do is to constantly go according to what is revealed in society. A person himself cannot scrutinize all the stages he has to go through, on the contrary he constantly needs to think what the society as a whole needs? The ten, what does it need and accordingly to orient himself to constantly be integrated included in them and this is how he advances. This is the direction he should take and then he will not make any mistakes.

15. S. (43:37) Is our connection a kind of shield for the entire humanity and if so how can we become more sensitive and consciousness of the seriousness of the work that we have to do because when you are speaking, I kind of see that this entire group is a shield for humanity and we need to be very sensitive about the importance that it is toward the world, is that so?

R. I would like to say that we are a special group, an extremely original group, very special in this world. It has a desire for connection, a purpose in connection and actions in connection and it will awaken in the general desires of all the souls, all the people of the world that have nothing important in life except for the purpose of connection because it all depends on whether or not they are aimed at that goal. That is how the world is developing although it doesn't see it, doesn't feel it, cannot detect it we nevertheless need to insist on our own path even if it takes a long time. We don't understand that the actualization is not on us, it is on the Creator, what is on us desire to have clearly aimed, scrutinized desire for connection between people and then the upper force will carry out this action to bring us to the purpose of creation, to be as one man and one heart. Of course, we cannot jump to the end of creation in one big leap but each and every time the desire is more clarified accumulated and we are advancing towards it.

16. S. (46:45) What is the difference between the love of people and the love of the Creator?

R. The difference between the love of the created beings and the love of the Creator, in truth there is no difference if we're talking about the essence of the matter but towards love of people, with respect to love of people and that in order to love people I need to come out of myself. I need to disconnect from myself otherwise I cannot come to anyone outside of me, who is opposite to me and after reaching the state where we invert the desire from self-love to love of others, then we can add to that the desire for love of the Creator. Meaning there are two stages here and it's not so simple and they do not exist in us these two stages, not the first nor the second, so it's hard for us to distinguish between the two but in truth, love of people is necessary for that first degree since it helps me disconnect from myself and once I disconnect from myself, to the extent I am disconnected from myself, I can feel the direction that will take me to love of others, love of the other and the other includes the Creator.

17. S. (48:57) We have states where I don't see people, is that correct or not?

R. You see what you see that's your perception of reality, we're talking about a differential matter, a little bit about this, a little bit about that and later it will all connect into one picture but what we see is desires and these desires, they assume all kinds of forms and qualities and connect to that and we gradually improve ourselves according to that.

S. If I don't see qualities of perception do I not see actually qualities of reception or receiving?

R. You are seeing forms that can be detected and depicted in your desires you cannot see more than that, everything else is called the concealed world, and those qualities that can be depicted in you and your desire and your thought, these you can grasp and you can work with them to the extent that we connect, and even more so when we do it above all our desires, by that we can open up the qualities that exist in the concealed manner. Where if I wish to connect with the friend although I lack a natural desire for it, then I bring myself to a state where the qualities that are outside of me are starting to appear in me, I perceive or detect the friend in me and then more and more and by that my vessel expands until it begins to reach of love of the created beings to love of the Creator.

18. S. (51:59) How to reach the most important point of connection between us?

R. The important point in the connection between us is the point of connection, when we are all connected together in one point in one vessel and one desire, that's the point, in that point we will feel no difference between one point and the other but that point will be the central point of the entire world and we will feel that the foundation of it is the Creator, that's how I think.

19. S. (53:41) You said now only a few points of connection are missing in order to feel that we are in the general system, how can we accelerate this work?

R. Now our work is to connect, anyone and everyone who is in the Congress, everyone wants to be connected with others, men or women doesn't matter a point in the heart does not have a gender or a sexual identity, we need to Simply Be in the hearts, in the inclination of the heart, towards connection between us, where the center of that connection is the Creator. As much as we begin to do it, we will succeed to do it in the Congress that's a good state that we are after and after that we will continue with our Global Congress but on a different degree, you will see how within a few days we will rise up to an understanding, a recognition of feeling that we never had before and that's how we will advance.

20. S. (55:50) Is the point of connection that we are searching for one point for the whole group or is it different for every person who connects to it?

R. We all connect in the common point although in our individual work it appears as if each one is in a separate point from the others and he is putting it together and it has nothing to do with the other work that the others are doing but in truth, this is not so. We are all working and it's a matter of concealment and we don't understand just how much we are in concealment between us. In this connection between us we are certainly working together; we're assembling the general kingdom, Malchut. That is called the third temple.

21. S. (57:21) How not to focus on the Congress on the 100% that we can extract from it but actually on the next degree that we can get from it so that we will have more fruit so that we will feel more happy etc

R. I think that this question is a bit egoistic. We need to see before us the point of connection between everyone, all of humanity, all of BB all over the world, all the tens in each and every country and in each and every group where individuals are connected we need to see them in such a way as if they are drawn or attracted to the same place, if we would see them like that then the inclination of our heart would be like the inclination of the Creator and that's what is important. Let's try to do it and succeed. Otherwise we will have a direction that's different from the Creator’s.

22. S. (59:44) How do we fight with this feeling that we haven't reached connection yet?

R. We fight for the connection in order to reach connection and that is your goal. From time to time you think of this goal as truly something that is right ahead of us and is desired more and more. Where previously we only heard about this goal and we didn't have any real tendency for it, for connection, but now more and more we see how these words and actions are not so foreign anymore, there’s greater depth, personality there; therefore, we enter the place where we can establish the new state, a desire for connection.

We have to accept these things as if we have no choice. We find ourselves in these qualities that are opposite to spirituality, where we are opposite to spirituality and if we are drawn to this, attracted to this even to a small extent we are advancing and this advancement is gradual and it will take place according to the laws of nature

23. S. (01:02:11) So can we say our common point between us is the Creator and how can each of us feel that?

R. The Creator is the foundation of all of reality it's the point from which reality begins and the point to which all of reality evolves and develops and reaches its conclusion, hence we have nothing to think about but only to see and to check how we can be part of this creation where the Creator is both the one starting the world and also bring it to conclusion and he does everything and he dwells in each and every moment everywhere and he fills everyone and only in this way if we try to be in this thought, in this perception, we will discover Him. We will see He is doing everything and carrying out everything and fulfills everything and He is everything. There is nothing other than the upper force and we are the created beings. In a sense this reality called the created being only exists in order for us to feel ourselves and feel the Creator and being outside of ourselves, so it's actually excellent that the Creator does it in this way because it gives us an opportunity to advance and deiscove Him.

24. S. (01:05:07) Should we search for our intentions in all these places where we have the rubbing of the hearts?

R. Yes, yes.

25. S. (10:05:50) In the lesson we're discussing that we have to find the point of connection between us and when we're in the ten we talk about building a field of work and a great vessel that will embrace the whole world but now we're talking about the point why are we talking about a point of connection?

R. A point of connection because it's a point of the desire, where, specifically from this desire we wish to be connected to one man in one heart and that's why it's a point. One desire means one point. What is a desire? to be connected, why? because we need to discover one root, one root for all of reality which is the Creator which is why we need to connect as one man in one heart in order to find this point of connection between us to find the one force, the central force of Creation which is the Creator. We have nothing to look for because ultimately the wisdom of Kabbalah is not such an assembly that has an infinite number of details. Those details, although there are many, they're all drawn to one point, the central point.

S. What should we envision when we try to depict this point of connection between us?

R. We need to try and imagine or envision the point and the desire to bestow, that wants us to connect between us and to Him, that's what we need to imagine.

26. S. (01:08:56) I heard you say that we will see a new degree in the Congress. There is such a deficiency today and the desire today and the willingness today, what is the quality of connection or the push to increase deficiency that we can reach this new degree today?

R. We need to reach a deficiency for general connection, where our point of connection will feel to us as the one upper force, the One, unique and unified Force of creation. That our hearts will connect into a single heart and in it we will reveal the center of creation.

S. So what is this fine-tuning that we can do today? The Congress is tomorrow, the official start for the rest of the World Kli joining here at the center. What is a fine tuning that we can do today to reveal this new degree?

R. To be in one heart. We started this a few weeks ago already, gradually, slowly, we discussed it and we came closer. We've had lessons ahead of that and now we're starting to do it in practice. I don't think the Congress is starting exactly tomorrow; rather , this connection starts already from the preparations.

S. So we just need to reach deeper into the heart of the friend?

R. Yes. Embrace the friends and enter deeper into the heart of the friend. Feel that we are moving towards one goal and we are in this goal together, and we do not necessarily have to be together. Meaning there's no difference there between one another, with clothing and bodies or anything, but only our desire. All of our desires are connected and are special and there's no difference between the desires.

27. S. (01:12:19) If the connection takes place between two friends that were not friends before, how do we stay in that point and hold on to it?

R. I don't understand the question?

S. If two friends have a connection between them, how do we stay in this connection and not become separated?

R. If two friends are in connection then there are no two friends, there they become as one, are you speaking of the body or of the desire?

S. We'll take an example from last evening, yesterday I was able to successfully connect with a friend from the Turkish Kli so how do I continue to work with this?

R. How can you do it? It doesn't matter what desires have now been added to you; you are constantly drawn towards maintaining the connection with him in a more advanced way each time, and that's how you advance so that he will advance and the common point of connection will rise higher.

28. S. (01:15:03) How can we bring the spirit which the creator has shattered into 6,000 Souls into one soul? how can we come to this to one desire, at the end of the day how will we refer to this ego and will to receive as the one desire and turn it into a divine desire?

R. Only through the effort and an example, example; each one should try and set an example to the other, how much he is trying to reach connection, each and everyone.

29. S. (01:16:23) How is this warmth in this unity that we have at the Congress, how do we aim it at the entire society or do we just hold it in between ourselves?

R. Today, we don't care much about passing our impression and the desire to connect in the correction of the world to the entire world, to all of humans, to all billions of people. Right now, we are talking about this assembly, this concentration, this connection between us, and through the connection between us we will gradually obligate the Creator to enter with us and to help us connect in such a way that from that connection we will influence everyone, each and everyone in the world. And it's truly so, it will happen according to this law of nature.

So, during the Congress we're not praying for the whole world and spreading our forces thin; we are concentrating our efforts as much as possible on our World Kli. That's the beginning, the preparation of the action and afterwards we're going to work with this vessel on the whole world. You will feel that this is how it works if you like it or not, everything is working according to these laws: There are waves that come from the outside in, and there are waves that come from the inside out, and that's how it works.

30. S. (01:19:17) What is the system between the awakening from below to the awakening above that the Creator gives whoever will benefit more from it?

R. An awakening from below and an awakening from above force a person to advance according to his states; what states the group he's in, what’s his state and what state the group itself is in? and therefore this is how we advance. To say exactly what states were in? I don't think we should think about it, but continue as we are. The Creator stabilizes all the states; whether we understand it or feel it or don't. We have to nevertheless follow Him, meaning in every state He gives us we need only one thing: how to be more together? it doesn't matter what state he gives, I have to find only the most correct state from Him which is to be together. That is it. then I have no problem. I don't need to be smart, I don't need to be successful, but only to be drawn to the connection between us.

31. S. (01:21:42) How can I get rid of the imaginary applications of my mind without forgetting that the Creator will bestow through friends?

R. I have to get used to it. I have to more and more depict to myself that we are in one system, that we are all connected and that we have no distance or space between us, and what we have is what we are given only to cancel this distance; it's an imaginary space, and as much as we depict ourselves “as one man and one heart” more and more, we will feel this one heart, one thought and most importantly The One Creator: That He depicts us from His uniqueness all the rest of the qualities that are as if canceling His uniqueness, and we are bringing Him by force into the singularity and into the oneness.

32. S. (01:23:50) How do I stop running away from the envy of my friends?

R. I don't think you can be successful in this. I don't think we need to ruin or destroy jealousy and envy because, “envy, lust and honor bring a person out of this world”. Meaning they lift him into a higher degree, therefore the fact that he has a higher envy he just needs to know how to use it properly, not to erase and not to get rid of it otherwise he will not have any strength to advance. He only has to know how to properly use it in order for it to help his advancement, as progress. So we need to love and appreciate envy and know how to use it in a wise way, meaning we need to envy, Hochma, wisdom, and then you will be successful. In the meantime you are using the quality of envy blindly, you're just envious and that's it. This is not that productive. Well, it'll pass.

33. S. (01:25:55) The more we speak about connection I understand less and less what connection is. When this concept disappears what do we have to hold on to?

R. The concept of connection doesn't disappear. We are completely separated after the breaking, pieces that don't even feel one another. Afterwards we start getting closer; from the degrees of still, vegetative and animate, we begin to get closer to each other, to move closer to each other. And this is how we start existing, in a form of still vegetative and animate, we begin to feel that we also belong to one another on the speaking level, the speaking species, and this is how we discover ourselves.

34. S. (01:27:35) A few moments ago you mentioned that the connection first has to come from the ten and then the world vessel and then the entire world for us to be able to build our kingdom, and come to build the Third Temple, how to expand the point in the heart out of the large desire, the yearning to pass the light to all of humanity around us? There is so much darkness and so many problems that humanity is going through.

R. All the problems and all the darkness and all those things, we are doing ourselves; we are creating them in our society and increasing them, and this is why we don't have anyone else to turn to and nothing else to do other than our connection. Only through connection do we correct the shattering. What else can you do? we cannot sit and cry and hope for it to help because it's not against our dispersion. We cannot do anything other than connect, that's it. the nearing between us or the moving apart, this is what influences everything. So, let's decide and do what needs to be done. The wisdom of Kabbalah has been talking about it for thousands of years: If we do it, we will succeed and if we don't do it, we will still succeed but not in a very pleasant way. This is what the wisdom of Kabbalah advises us and presents to us.

35. S. (01:30:20) We need to accept new faces and new desires, how can we receive and accept new desires?

R. Through connection between us by preparing ourselves in groups and uniting together. We still don't understand how much the connection of our desires solves all the problems. We think it's some sort of of an artificial act but this is actually the most internal act that there is in nature if we connect among us or at least are drawn to be connected among us by this we are preparing an instrument for the solution of all the problems. Even those that haven't been revealed, they will be connected in the root as well as those who have been revealed, we will learn, from the place of the breaking we will learn the place of the correction.

36. S. (01:32:07) Please advise, in our connection like never before it's felt how much the Creator loves us and brings us closer. How do we increase and amplify this feeling and pass it to everyone or should we not put an accent on it and just continue?

R. We need to get stronger and go on.

37. S. (01:33:10) I was really trying to feel the difference between the spiritual heart and the connection of all the desires and coming into that heart and you also have the central point of the heart, what's the difference between, lets say this desire, this heart and the central point of the heart?

R. The heart is a collection of points that are not so connected to each other they are contradictory and when they are contradictory they can perform operations like in a system because that's the difference between a system and one part in the system because the different parts which operate each one in its own direction but for a common goal, that goal connects them together even though for themselves, they may not understand one another but in an engine for example you have so many parts and each of them is turning in a different direction but all together they have a goal or a movement that are correct.

So this is how it works and that's the difference between the individual and the collective, this is why we have to feel in our efforts and in the group if we say that we are for instance ten people, each of them is working for the same goal in his own style, not like the others and perhaps even opposite from others but the goal is the same. So that one goal is what keeps us even though we are seemingly moving away from each other and are opposite from each other, this is how we advance in the group.

S. What states do you think we are in? Are we in the heart that we are advancing to that central point? Are we already in this heart, that we are moving to the central point or the heart?

R. The central point in our heart contains within it all of the opposite contradictory operations and knows how to connect them together and that very special point that can do that is called the Creator. This is why we say that there is no Creator without the created beings because their are contradictory and opposite forces that want to connect and have one goal and can connect and they build the Creator, they make Him.

38. S. (1:36:58) We discover the Creator between us and at the same time the kabbalists say that we leave the Creator concealed in order to reach faith above reason. What do we discover or attain and what do we leave concealed?

R. What we leave concealed I don't know, if it's concealed from me then it's concealed. I only discover what I can discover and what I can reveal from the concealed so each time I can reveal from the concealed the part that we can depict and receive, so even though it is concealed it will be as if revealed. It is called revealing in concealment. When I conceal what I reveal from my own will to receive and instead of it I build the desire to bestow and there I do reveal that part which was concealed. It sounds a little confusing in words but I couldn't find a more concrete way to explain it.

S. I understand that we need to keep ourselves from falling into the desire to receive and this is what we are discovering.

R. Yes, of course.

39. S. (1:39:12) The sensitivity of the soul and the connection are these scrutinies and impressions within each and impressions of the study?

R. Yes.

S. And the deficiencies in the friend that give me something to turn to the Creator with, those are the desires I don't have?

R. Yes.

S. And the deficiency and the lack of everything we get from the society?

R. Yes.

40. S. (01:40:20) How can we work towards the same goal but in an opposite way?

R. We are not working in opposite directions, physically yes, we might be doing so on the lowest level on the level of the inanimate the level of the still but on higher levels we don't work in opposite ways, it may seem to us here and there but on a higher level than the still we begin to become similar to each other and grow on top of the still so we're no longer one against the other so it turns out that even though we do things that seem opposite mechanically for example but in these actions there is a common goal and they are not contradictory to each other.

41. S. (01:42:12) I wanted to ask, the relationship between the Creator and the creature feels that the creature does not justify the Creator anymore. What is the relationship between the creature and the Creator when the creature cannot justify the Creator anymore.

R. The relationship that the created being feels. It's always from the side of the created being, what to hate the Creator to beat him up, what does he want? That he disagrees? If I disagree with the Creator then I can tear, break the connection with Him or remain in connection in a conflicting way with a striving with Him or to work on myself in order to understand the Creator and connect. I have three options here, this is what I will do.

S. At this moment that the creature disconnects and then I cannot find the friend or I cannot justify and then I distance and at that moment I'm distancing and I need to hold on and it's becoming difficult.

R. It becomes difficult so you can grip more forcefully and this is your work to add the force of connection.

S. And this is the point of connection we speak of?

R. It is the point that you can develop precisely because the Creator is making it more difficult for you.

42. S. (01:44:28) I came here and I feel so small in comparison to the greatness of the friends. At this state what can I add to the connection?

R. What can I tell you? You are not that small. I have known you from all of our activities. There is nothing to cry about. It is always good to feel regret and to feel small, the smallest, but at the same time we need to understand that we are all advancing and each one the smaller he feels himself on the other and he can also feel himself as greater. The main thing is participation in our great common system. In our system even the tiniest screw is important because the system is complete and it cannot exist without that piece. That is why I am very happy that you understand how much the connection between us which is gradually being formed, how much this is what operates in the general system and operates and elevates us and activates us and turns us into a support, a system where the Creator can activate, operate reality and be revealed through us and bring reality to its complete form to the end of correction.

43. S. (01:46:50) A moment ago we were speaking about what is to conceal what I revealed and to reveal what is concealed. In the wall depiction there are sharp rocks with points and there are not worn down to be smooth. Would a concrete example of this would be that we reveal the sharp rock and then we reveal what is concealed through prayer and the sharpness doesn't hurt anymore because we have the Creator to shield us from that sharp rock?

R. Repeat please.

S. On the picture of the wall that we looked at there are sharp rocks they are not rounded we do not round them they remain sharp and they can hurt. Do we need to reveal that the evil inclination, that it hurts us and it takes us out of bestowal towards one another and then reveal what is concealed through prayer and the Creator takes away the sharpness?

R. The ego is that special thing that the Creator created. It is as if it comes to us and takes pride in it. I created the ego, I found what is missing in creation the ego, that is what is missing, because through the ego you will know how to combine these rocks in order to build from them every single thing where it is missing where it is protruding where it is not matching with the others this is called the ego. Therefore the bricks that you want to build these rectangular wild bricks you want to build that is not the correct building construction. The correct building is to take all those rocks and stones and know how to work them all together, how to combine them all together and this is the correct connection. This is what we will do. So we do not need to make everyone similar to one another like we are all squares but rather each one should grow with his own qualities and choose with his own free choice and connect out of his volition to others by not using his own desire but by using foreign desires in order to help them and in this way we will all connect by complementing one another and this will be the completion of the world, completeness of the world.

44. S. (01:51:44) I want to understand when we work in the opposite direction in our heart, if it is the matter of the heart can be assume that it is in every place in nature? Can we understand that it works like electricity, we have plus and minus contradictory forces in pluses, in favor and between us both kinds of forces increase and we connect and in this way we advance the world kli in the connection between us.

R. Yes, yes.

45. S. (01:53:02) The question from our feelings of our ten is what can help us do stronger acts of bestowal what should be our prayer?

R. Only to know how to perform connection according to the plan of nature. We actually need nothing other than that. Look what is missing in the world for people, the still vegetative, animate, on each and every level you only have a lack of the correct connection and that is it.

46. S. (01:57:17) [No translation] Should we take pride gathering of such different people, some has strong yearning, some strong thickness, what point can we make a choice so that we do not work through the ego but some central point between all of our pluses and minuses, what is that point?

R. It is the point of connection. that if we reach the point of connection in the group from it we will certainly continue to act in a proper way, that’s it. So, without too much philosophy, too much wit, too much research; if you arrive at the interconnection point being connected more and more, out of this point of connection we will always do the correct action.

S. So this point does not belong to the plus or the minus?

R. No. No.

47. S. (01:56:44) What quality should the created being need to draw if he wants to be similar to the Creator?

R. Love. Love. What is love? Love is an attraction or a drawing to connection above everything else; this is called love.

48. R. (01:57:26) So we actually did not do anything in any of the documents. Maybe we can start the lesson?

Reading items #11 (02:01:35) “The most important is the labor, meaning to crave to labor in His work..”

49. S. (02:03:12) In this Congress, at least the atmosphere that we feel now, there is a very special force. It is as if you do not need to do anything but just absorb the atmosphere to get a lot of power. What do we need to add what are those bits that we need to add in such a special atmosphere

R. Continue more and more a little bit more forward and more forward. We are pretty ready for the current degree and the next steps we need to, we to do.

S. Where's the overcoming, where's the labor how is it expressed?

R. In searching what we need to overcome, where do we need to advance.

S. From what should we be careful of in such a state?

R. To be careful from emptiness. That we do not do anything just for the sake of it. So that we perform actions that are necessary that are aimed directly at the goal.

S. What might dilute the atmosphere? I'm afraid of this delusion, I want to keep it focused, how can we be more and more focused all the time and not get diluted?

R. This is what we spoke about yesterday, other than the connection we do not need anything. Only the connection and within the connection we need to find the middle point for all, gather around it and focus around it, push and within it find the Creator.

50. S (02:05:27) Why is the labor in more than the usual?

R. In the labor you see where you can expand your attitude, your relation incorporation in connection in adhesion with the creatures and the Creator. So the labor is the main thing. They are even speaking of the labor as the goal that for us it is understood as the means that we need to labor in order to attain or achieve a certain state, but in the wisdom of Kabbalah they are speaking about the labor as the desired state. That should exist within itself, but not that something that comes after that, after that comes more labor.

S. What does it mean that I have labored?

R. That I understood that in this labor, in this I'm actually realizing myself in constant movement.

S. In which direction do you want to be moving?

R. In the direction of the Creator. In the direction of the creatures that I reveal them together through my labor that they exist in a single connection with the Creator in the center.

S. So that one center that you have been mentioning since the beginning of the lesson, how to we add labor into that Center?

R. All the time, we get all sorts of disturbances changes external internal, then we need to add in the connection that we want to attain every single moment.

S. How do I identify the center to which we are laboring?

R. That we all together for the Creator it's nothing more, the picture is very simple.

51. S (02:08:20) When can this labor that we are doing be satisfied? They are talking about the last bit so what is this last bit that really make us satisfied? Can we really be satisfied before that labor why does it have to be that last bit?

R. I do not know what you are talking about, this state that I have not attained yet. Why are you looking at me like that?

S. The articles I’m talking about, that last piece that makes it satisfying.

R. In my labor, in my work I have not attained, not achieved that last bit. I cannot tell you, I'm in the middle of the meal.

S. Can we be satisfied right now in the labor?

R. I did not understand.

S. Can we be satisfied right now in that labor or do we have to wait for that last bit?

R. Yes.

S. How do we do it then?

R. When you reach the last bit you will feel it that satiation for the entire meal, but not before that.

S. So before that we cannot be satisfied in the work in the labor?

R. No, before that you cannot.

S. So how can we be prepared to be satisfied in this Congress as soon as possible? This is what we want.

R. That is something else. Here we can pass to one another the ability to enjoy the last bit. If I do this in order to bestow for others, then it is not about what I am having, it is about what I'm passing to others. And if everyone gets into this in such a way, then we can already enjoy the last bit, the final meal and bring the end of connection, the final connection closer now.

52. S (02:11:23) How do we know if we are really making an effort laboring in the Ten? Because each one has his own boundaries of labor and abilities to work, each one has his own.

R. One more time repeat please.

S. How can we know that we really have labored in the work in the Ten when each one of us has his own personal limitations of labor?

R. Everyone is limited and we do not understand how much of a zero we are. All of our work is in the desire to add to the other, to give space and room to the other. We are not building something ourselves we are only giving the empty spaces to one another. And in this we build, it is like opposite building and then the Creator is filling it. Think about it.

53. S (02:13:12) From the beginning of the lesson you mentioned something important: building the collective sense and the collective feeling. We can feel a taste of this to some extent everywhere, but the challenge is that we are being pulled in all kinds of infinite directions within this field, so the question with regard to the excerpt that we just read, how do you measure extra labor within this empty space, where do you put the framework so that you can become aware of what you can do as extra in this Congress?

R. For now because for this extra you need to measure not towards your own labor but towards everyone else's labor that they give and bestowed on to you and how you were influenced by that and then gave your own individual labor. It is not a simple calculation. And for us it does not matter, it is not important. What we give it is important that we give, if this giving is boundless however much I can. In this I open up my vessel, my kli and how much it opens up I give everything to the Creator and he already arranges my vessel in such a way that it fills with the light Ein Sof, and this is all, this all goes in accordance to me in the end of Correction and then I am filled from that part from the final correction that I have to receive. I'm not sure if I said it clearly but we will clarify it more.

54. S (02:15:56) How should I work on myself, look for mistakes in and correct them and the other part of the question is, or do I find the good and continue forward?

R. The most correct thing is to continue onwards. It does not matter what state I'm in right now, I always need to be ready to receive this as the beginning of the next degree and continue. And not to judge from the point of view of where I am right now it's good it's bad. The most important thing is to advance to advance onwards. Really this is the essence of our work, we agree with everything that arrives as coming from the Creator, that there is nothing else besides Him. We agreed to take a step forward towards the increasing connection and this is how we advance. We advance in such a way.

55. S. (02:17:30) When the word labor is used, for a woman it's a bath of something. It is almost like the work is we have to identify an obstacle as a deficiency which we resist initially, but if it is painful we have to raise it to the Creator to give back to the connection. Is this the concept work that we have to be doing? Connection above obstacles, prayers for the correction?

R. Yes and no. There's a prayer before prayer. This is what it is called, there is the work that we do. And there are work and then prayers that we do in accordance with the state. So we need to differentiate between this and that, so it depends on the response to the state in which I am included and a reaction first of all that it is coming from the Creator, and then in this way we come closer to him. It's a good question.

56. S. (02:19:45) For a long time labor has felt like a fight against self love. It’s been something we have been aggressively trying to approach but being here now amongst their friends and listening to you speak tonight the labor is starting to feel more about acceptance to allow the Creator to arrange us, to build us, and it feels very new. My question is, is this labor really about letting go or do we still have to hold on to that force to push?

R. Our labor is to agree with the Creator for what He is doing with us after the agreement to continue His work. This is in essence the right direction.

57. S. (02:21:57) What does it mean that the Creator responds? How does He respond how does He act?

R. How does the Creator react? If I relate to Him and I expect a response from Him, a reaction, then I am aimed correctly at this reaction or response. I receive it from various channels of this world and this is the Creator’s response and you will feel that it is coming from Him.

58. S. (02:22:46) It seems like the closer we get closer to connection the whole world is shaking in order to come to balance. What can we do to make these tremors not destructive?

R. It is a big problem. The world is and will be for some time in all sorts of shakings, quakings, both in seismological earthquakes, political and whatever else. We hope that we will be able to calm it and transition it into a gradual development that is good and smooth in the next direction of correction. I really hope that we will be able to do this. There is already two parts in the world that are extremely bad, first part is our smart part where we understand what it should be and the second part is the large part of the entire world which does not know how it should be, in the states that it is in are not good and we will connect these two parts together to decide on the next state that is unifying. Only in the connection between all, in awareness, we will correct the world.

59. Reader (02:25:18) Maybe you can give us a summary of the lesson to go out with.

R. We spoke according to the topic of the lesson, how the corrections come to us and awaken us, how we need to respond to them. This is in the morning lesson as a preparation for the congress and that's it. What else do I have to add? I think it is a good and correct preparation. What will be tomorrow or this evening?

Reader: There’s also a noon lesson today.

R. Also here?

Reader: Yes.

Rav: And what do you want there to be? No one has any desire.

Reader: The lesson will be on the topic of joy.

R. Joy, that’s always good. A lesson on the topic of joy at noon.
