Part 1:

2. Rabash. Article No. 3, (1984) Love of Friends - 1

Reading Article. (00:26) "And a certain man found him.."

1. R. (04:00) Meaning the main thing for us is to know what we need to ask for. Not to ask for anything but connection with the ten, connection between us, as broad as possible, as deep as possible. And then, through this, we will find a way to the end of correction. Meaning the means to find even more and more from the ten and from there to the rest of the tens, that is the path to the end of correction. Clear?

2. S. (05:10) In the previous article we read that the purpose of society is to reach adhesion with the Creator and in order to get there, we have to be in love of friends. Sometimes, we go too much into the relationships between us and forget about the goal or we go into all kinds of discernments. Let's say the whole world Kli goes through some discernment like silence or into disputes for the sake of the heavens and you forget about the goal and you go into scrutiny together with all of the friends. What should we do?

R. Scrutinize, continue to scrutinize nevertheless, where we are right, where we are erring, what is demanded of us.

S. How can we stabilize that goal of adhesion to the Creator that it will be more alive?

R. In the ten. In the Creator, I don't know how you can express it or imagine it, only through the ten.

S. Is it okay to go into this scrutiny until the goal is clear? Meaning I forgot it?

R. Yes, yes.

3. S. (06:54) I just heard that a person needs to ask for a broader and deeper connection. What does that mean in the convention now, when someone comes to the convention, what does it mean a deeper and broader connection?

R. In the convention, I do not think there is room for true, deep scrutinies. If you have thousands of friends, how will you be able between them to make those scrutinies? That is why the convention is only a place for a certain impression, for incorporation.

S. Is it right to do in the preparation for the convention?

R. Yes, in the preparation for the convention you can now think, in a moment we will read a few more articles about how we prepare ourselves for the convention.

S. Can I ask about the opening of the heart?

R. Yes.

S. Opening the heart means that I'm opening my desire to bestow, that’s the opening of the heart?

R. Yes.

S. Sometimes the will to bestow appears and disappears?

R. You are trying to open your heart to all of the friends and this is how you come closer to that.

S. When I come to the convention, I constantly have to think that the friends are going to be in bestowal, that is my opening of the heart?

R. For your heart to be in bestowal.

4. S. (08:53) Opening of the heart, does it depend on words? Or only internal work?

R. It is not dependent on words.

S. How important is it, if at all, that we make time to speak about it or better to just save time in building the intention, a mutual intention around it?

R. The main thing is to build a common intention.

S. Do we have social times like preparation for the lesson, or meals and we can talk about it? Should we use the time to speak or internal intentions?

R. I think that our organizers, I don't understand this and I'm not in this, the friends and who else are in there from the organizers?

S. On behalf of the organizers, in general we are organizing the content, the friends from abroad, a few more teams from here. That is about the content. We are also thinking of how to create preparation lessons for the convention already next week when the world Kli is going to start coming. There is also a social team that is giving us exercises every so often. That's about the preparation, so the friend who is asking is the friend who is in charge of the meals. And he is taking all of our meals also as preparation for the convention. That is the topic where we are dealing with. If I understand him, he is asking from a place on how to make and take all of the possibilities we have and turn them into even more purposeful towards the convention, if we're speaking between each other and so on. Let's say the preparation between us and we have workshops, so how can we use those workshops so they will lead us more to the convention? Also in the meals we have L’Chaims, so how to aim the preparation to the congress?

R. Is that okay?

S. What I am asking is that's what we want to know from you? Is it better for us to invest in speaking between us and raise the importance and the willingness to open the heart or on the contrary, concentrate internally through our sources while we are silent. What is better for us now? It's also especially coming up from these noon lessons we have about the power of silence and we want to say how to implement it in our different teams.

R. I don't think that in the convention with such a big quantity of people that we don't also have a proper preparation for in the silence where we can scrutinize many things in silence.

S. Now in the preparation?

R. We need to try and be impressed by one another in the customary way that we do between people.

5. S. (12:52) I just wanted to go back to what we just read about love of friends. He said “the field that was blessed by the Creator.” The purpose of the convention is not just to come eat and study. We have to supposedly reach the field that the Creator blessed, meaning that get that blessing in the convention. I don't want to ruin the atmosphere but he says “plowing the work in the field is plowing and reaping and those who sow in tears will reap in joy.” What are we doing in the convention in order to get that blessing? We're not just coming for no reason.

R. You need to know how to correctly sow seeds into the land, into the ground so that the proper offspring will come out of it and you will be able to reap it.

S. What do we need to do? What you just said except we are stroking each other. What is the type of work and what should we concentrate on in the convention?

R. What I just said.

S. What? To accept friends? Okay, meaning there are many things to do but things to actually focus on. How do you say it once, that and the most concentration? What should it be, what do I think?

R. The connection of the hearts, it does not matter where you are. Whether you are washing dishes or you are heating up the food or you are sitting and cleaning. In a convention, there are many roles, so either you're in a role or you are in a participation passively, relatively. You want to be constantly with everyone in a connection inwards and inwards between you until the Creator is revealed between you.

S. Then there is the blessing in the field?

R. Yes.

6. S. (15:33) In the connection of the hearts, can you help us how to work correctly with the valves? You talked about it once, that there is a feeling sometimes that this devotion to the connection is necessary but there are small nuances that if we are not working with the valves, there are things that we read before, in frivolity and we fall into pits and all kinds of things like that.

R. I don't understand exactly what you're talking about.

S. When there is a system that should bring a flow to a certain action to the point that it's essence is a new degree in connection from reasons of inner feelings or there are people that maybe the mind enters and speeds up. If you don't have those valves that balance, it's as if we come out of calibration. Maybe I am just throwing something for myself in there.

R. Anyone understand?

S. If I understand the friend, he asked how we can protect ourselves in order to not deviate from the work of the connection during the convention?

R. I came to the Congress in order to expand my vessels of reception. So by that, I will allow all of the friends to come into my heart. And by that, I am expanding my vessels until I begin to feel the Creator in it. That's what I hope will happen.

S. What should we be guarded from in order that the correct thoughts and desires will enter?

R. Accordingly, I want to ensure that other than the connection with the friends I want to be in a single connection with them as tightly as possible, as widely as possible. I am expecting that moment where the connection between us will begin to reveal to us the Creator that exists in the connection. Imagine the system, a round system that goes through all kinds of states and you expect that, from these states, One Unique and Unified Force will begin to be revealed which is the Creator.

S. Let's say we attained a certain extent of connection at the convention, at the lesson, or in the meal, or in Yeshivat Haverim, how can we not fall? How can we make some kind of thing that guards us at that level?

R. We enter into a dialogue, a discussion, a connection with the Creator. We do not let go.

S. Because we had a certain moment when we were in the lesson, we went to a recess, we went to another state, how in these transitions, how do we not go backward?

R. That is something else, even when we go out on a break, we disconnect for a moment, we go to the bathrooms, something else and we come back. We are constantly in the same intention, in the same direction whereby through the connection that we attain between us in each and every moment, we wish for the Creator to be felt more and more; in the connection between us.

7. S. (20:34) How can we guard this inner intention to on one hand and on one moment I could be thinking and on the next moment I can be leaving these thoughts in some space? How can I really be focused on what we're speaking about in the revelation of the Creator between us?

R. Try not to disconnect. First of all, all the time to be connected to the Creator and ask the Creator all the time to be connected to the friends. Through this web, this network where I am in contact with the friends, I need to try and reveal the Creator there in it.

S. What will hold me to be focused on that?

R. Talk to your friends about it first. You are like a bunch of fishermen that are going to catch the Creator.

8. S. (22:00) What should I do if I see that people, friends of ours study and that they speak about things that are not connected to the goal?

R. If they ask me during the congress, what's up? I say good, we are in a congress, if any thoughts would awaken about work, family, friends, all kinds of things, I put them off to the side. I literally reject all of the conversations, the discussions that don’t belong with the purpose of the Congress. And vice versa, when I hear people in the scrutiny about the connection between them, I am drawn to that.

9. S. (23:29) The convention is, “The Opening of the Heart” and recently we have been speaking about holding on to the speech and also being humble as we read in the article. And in this matter of love of friends he says that there is this inner work in opening the heart. He says that it is not enough and that we also need to engage externally in love of friends, with the friends that will help them feel that everyone is in that. It is not like the first article where we said..?

R. Can you ask a question?

S. I don't understand that the whole work is in this inner quietness. At the convention, is there some kind of place where we need to show love externally and how do we do that?

R. All the time, we should show love externally?

S. How do we do that, in what forms, can you say something about that?

R. No, each one, according to how much they understand, in the style that they understand, he has to do it. I should not be by myself in the Congress just like now six-hundred men can be sitting here and each one is within himself and he seemingly does not owe anything to others, other than the fact that they are sitting around, at a table, which is also hard for him to understand why.

S. Meaning I have this inner effort to open the heart, I have this inner opportunity and I need to somewhat show that to the friends?

R. Yes.

10. S. (25:40) He writes in relation to the love of friends, that through that, each one can help his friend. I have a feeling that if you buy a ticket and you exert to come to the convention from afar, and you take a vacation, and you do all of this effort to come, you have a role in that. You come here and you are in this special role to awaken the society. I wanted you to recommend the friends who come here from afar, what role in their hearts do they come here with?

R. To help complete this society until we reach the complete form called 600,000 souls.

S. What is that complementarity?

R. That I'm the last one and if I join them, we become a whole vessel where the Creator can be revealed to everyone.

S. How can I do that, is there something I can do?

R. To complete, to compliment, I connect my heart to the heart of others.

S. What do I lack?

R. You lack your heart.

11. S. (28:08) If a person comes to the convention with alien thoughts and he goes through a descent, how should he go through that without harming the group? Can you give any advice for that?

R. Shut your eyes and enter the connection and when we receive here the friends we should behave in this way as well, open the heart, embrace and accept and receive them as much as possible.

12. S. (28:53) It is written that a person wanders in the field, what does it mean that he wanders in the field and he doesn't find? How can we find this goal and help him reach the goal?

R. To reach the goal is possible only if he acquires, if he buys his friends. Otherwise, he won't be able to find his way out of the field. He writes about it further on.

13. S. (29:45) In order for a person to wander in the field, two things need to happen. The first is that he needs to go into the field and the second is that he does not know the path. The question is: Does each one who studies, each moment and every morning in the lesson, is he wandering in the field?

R. Yes, others are not even walking there.

14. S. (30:15) In relation to the work in the field, is a person supposed to during the day aspire to always be in this work? Or should he have these entrances and exits?

R. Entrances and exits.

S. How can he criticize himself in this?

R. Only if they are in the society, relative to the society, you can have any sort of criticism and analysis.

15. S. (30:53) Why does it come in with this difficulty with the heart and then the thought, in that there is no help other than in love of friends, as it is written here? Why does it always appear that the friends are separate and the Creator separate?

R. This is done intentionally, so you come to recognize that the main thing is the connection with the friends.

S. Especially when I have some kind of rejection between me and the friends and I cannot connect with them, it needs to be here in any case? Some kind of effort to come to bestowal and if I do not do that, what do I do?

R. If you don't do it, you don't do it. You remain outside the system.

16. S. (32:10) What does it mean to speak with the Creator in the connection?

R. Through the friends to turn to the Creator.

S. What does it mean to turn to the Creator through the friends?

R. To think about how you will be connected with the friends in such a way that through them, you will be able to say what needs to be said, to cross it.

17. S. (32:47) How can I look at reality through connection between us and then how can I overcome the fear of spirituality over corporeality, how can I appreciate spirituality over corporeality? Sometimes I have a certain fear in that.

R. I understand you, I would say the following: don't pay attention to corporeality at all and work as much as possible from the correction of the spiritual system you have in your heart and in your brain. Work on that as much as possible for one hour or two or three, more and more. Afterwards, you need to obviously engage in corporeality as well but at any moment, you will think I will be right back into spirituality.
