Part 1:

Rabash. Article No. 35, 1991. What Is the Meaning of “Spies,” in the Work?

Reading Rabash. Article No. 35 “It is written in The Zohar…”

1. S. (41:04)

R. This article is quite dense.

2. S. (41:12) Why is the right line the perfection of truth?

R. Because the right is giving and the left is reception.

3. S. (41:27) How to work in thought to separate myself from the spies and not to speak bad about the Creator or the friends? How to work to differentiate to separate myself from the spies and myself and not to slander regarding the Creator and the friends?

R. Those are only exercises. I have to see all of the disturbances that I have relative to the path to the Creator to the friends and as something that was given to me specially on purpose so I would rise above it.

4. S. (42:13) What is the sin of the spies in the spiritual work?

R. You have to answer that, all of you. It's lack of faith, really.

5. S. (42:37) How can you touch the left and make sure that the right is strong enough?

R. You are holding on to the 10, you trust them. You trust that the connection with them will always be stronger than your connection to the left.

S. In what confidence is there that the left won't suddenly overcome, rise and be like the spies?

R. You'll be able to overcome it again. If you are connected to the 10, if you can tie yourself to them and tie them to you, then you need to be covered in the right.

S. There's no fear that the left will grow?

R. The fear is good. Fear is in order to increase the right.

S. So I go back to the 10 so back home?

R. Yes, it's not so smooth but that's a direction.

6. S. (44:14) To continue the question, he puts the correction of Creation and the purpose of Creation in the world of the shattering, and the world of Nekudim and we speak a lot about the connection between us it says that you can't receive in an order to receive the abundance and you answered the friend a little bit but I wanted to continue how does the connection between us how does that connect to in let's say I ate, I drink, I think, I do all kinds of things.

R. It has to do with the importance, whereas the Creator compared to how you see yourself.

S. If I put a 10 between the Creator and myself does that help me be aimed towards him?

R. Yes.

S. How?

R. By attaching to yourself the 10.

S. How does it help me to not receive in order to receive if I placed the 10?

R. You have additional forces compared to your single force that may not be able to help for the time being but you have additional forces of the ten.

S. This increases the importance of the Creator as opposed to the desire in order to receive.

R. Yes, of course more.

7. S. (46:07) One of our tools we have is prayer, and from the excerpt it's a lot more than what we can imagine because if you're in gratitude you see perfection so how does this transition help your deficiency?

R. I didn't understand the question.

S. In our vessels is prayer and we have gratitude and we have a deficiency of a request when we are in a state of gratitude and being grateful and actually the gratitude is at least how I see it. It's receiving the laws of nature and I identifying with them how do we transition to a deficiency?

R. What kind of deficiency?

S. Of a request.

R. What are you lacking?

S. The desire to be adhered to stay on the right line

R. Okay, then scrutinize it and pray.

8. S. (47:46) What is the extent that a person needs to feel the force of Faith or before he awakens the deficiency?

R. He has to connect with the force of faith and be in soul devotion to it so that it feels to him that whatever is that no matter what's coming to him he's going to be saved helped.

S. We awaken a prayer to awaken the deficiency of what we're in we're not okay and until we reach the state to where we're even willing to reach, to look at the state of what we're lacking for correction we need to build a lot of connections and a lot of strength.

R. That's included in the same work.

S. The prayer and the beginning should that accompany the process of building faith and afterwards to start searching what else we need to add in order to correct? What I'm trying to scrutinize are the conditions of the work we are in very clear order here and working in Torah and Mitzvot?

R. Yes.

S. I'm trying to figure out to the extent that we need to feel that we have enough strength to start awakening the deficiencies

R. It depends on the level of your grasp in the Creator in the right in the connection and the friends. The more you or as much you are to them you can advance.

S. Is this something we need to experience ourselves from the right line to the left line where we hold the right and the Creator awakens the left?

R. The Creator awakens the left typically we have to constantly think of increasing the right.

9. S. (50:26) It says in the end of the article that father is present and future is son what is Father and Son or future and present in the work?

R. Present and future?

S. What regular times?

R. States.

S. We need to be adhered to the future state?

R. We need to do everything in order to accept the future.

10. S. (51:08) He says that all of these processes that we're doing daily, we need to be settled in our mind. What does it mean to have a settled mind? How do I reach the lesson every day to the friends and settled in my mind?

R. When you wish to rise above everything you've had thus far, and try to require a new state.

S. To constantly demand a new state?

R. Constantly.

11. S. (51:53) First of all, out of gratitude for this article. It's like a shower. When we start the work from left to right we reach some state that one hasn't attained or achieved anything, not spirituality, not in corporeality. Why do we reach such a state? Why do we feel that?

R. This is the most correct point in order to create the right scrutiny. That I have nothing, no present, no future, and that I am powerless, senseless, and not sure what to do with myself.

S. Is this an indication for advancement?

R. Yes.

S. At that time where to grab onto it? What's correct to do?

R. You hold on to the group. You try to enter into it even more because, there you find your next state, your next degree.

12. S. (53:22) How can we use the spies in a positive way?

R. Where they can, the questions of the spies and we want to rise above them. Spies are not simple people, they're smart, they always go forward, they’re messengers. So by trying to work with them and against them we are advancing without the spies you can't do it.

13. S. (54:28) How to see our flaws where, we see the friends in lack of strength? It seems to me that the Creator is going to let go of me and leave me.?

R. I didn't quite understand. How do I see my own flaws in order to not let go of the friends?

S. When I see the friends and lack of strength, how can I even see my own flaws and see that the Creator has not left me?

R. I'm thinking of the friends first of all because I depend on them. That's why I constantly scrutinize their state and how do I hold on to them, how do I ask for them and then I advance with them. The work of the spies is that they see that if they wish to move forward they have to be more and more in adhesion.

S. When I see the friend with lack of strength, how can I justify the Creator? How can I not see the Creator as abandoning the friends?

R. Of course, I see that too but I don't want to be adhered to that opinion, but I see it. I have to understand them and that as well their state.

14. S. (56:32) What's unclear is that if a person on the left line says, that a person needs to look only at the greatness, and not to look at the right and not to look at what he is lacking but in the left line he needs to look at himself and what evil he has in him and try to correct it and then he writes in the article that's unclear that a person is not guiding the middle line but that he's tending towards one side more than the other and he's spoiling everything but he just told that so what he's on the right he should only be on the right and then left only on the left so what is this combined line?

R. How will he advance if he doesn't combine these two lines, and walk on the middle line. That's the main thing here, otherwise he will not advance.

S. What's this action of combining these two lines?

R. He takes as much as he can from the left and in order to mix it with the right and to move forward.

S. After he's on the left which is a very advanced state and he needs to go back to the right and that's this merge?

R. It's the opposite. He has to be on the right, go back to the left and take from the left as much as he can correct and by the right.

Yes, the spice helping there.

S. Of course.

R. He is the one who is combining, merging these two qualities.

15. S. (58:40) If I'm grateful to the Creator am I doing it consciously or is the Creator the first and the last, how to scrutinize this?

R. No, you have to recognize the fact that you need to be grateful to the Creator and this is true for every person in the group.

S. No translation

R. Without spies you can't do it, you’ll have no reason to.

16. S. (59:41) When a person agrees with the Creator he gets more obstacles. Is that in order to strengthen the person, to strengthen his understanding, and to strengthen his path?

R. Yes.

17. S. (01:00:03) What does it mean to combine the right with the left as much as possible?

R. For the will to receive to also submit itself before the next step forward.

S. Can we say that the left line are the spies?

R. Yes.

18. S. (01:00:47) I will read thank you for your patience it says here “ therefore these two things cause ascents and descents since each one cancels the other but we should understand why we need both of them and why they need but, you cannot be in my topic at one time and for that reason we arrange them one after the other” my question is to relation is such a special state we can’t be in both states Rabash writes to us how can we between prayer and gratitude between those states what gives us the strength to go in the right line or whoever leaves the work to go to the left that he condemns the Creator?

R. What helps us go in the middle line?

S. To choose the right line to go in gratitude.

R. If it is speaking of the action it is because I am adhered to the friends.

S. Isn't the adhesion with the friends stemming from the right line the right force to advance to adhesion?

R. Let's say it is.

19. S. (10:02:48) How not to criticize what the Creator is sending us?

R. The fact that you are connected together with the friends constantly wanting to raise the greatness of the Creator in your eyes.

20. S. (01:03:25) How can I keep the friends on the path when the entire world slanders the Creator?

R. You say they have eyes and they cannot see, ears that they cannot hear that is how you look at the world. But, instead of the world, what is important to you is your group. You are adhered to them, you are only in adhesion to them. You attain the goal and the Creator is revealed in the center of the group.

21. S. (01:04:10) Does the force of faith fluctuate from state to state but nevertheless constantly grow on us like a …. Like this?

R. Right, that is how we rise in the ladder of the degrees.

22. S. (01:04:50) What should we do to have a constant concern for the Creator?

R. To be connected with the friends and by that to prepare yourself to be close to the Creator.

23. S. (01:05:17) It says in your article that the work in the right line is that a person has to believe that he is now speaking before the Creator, sometimes it is easy to do sometimes it is hard, how to hold ourselves in that state and if we do not have that state what does it mean?

R. If you don't have it then you don't have it if it exists then cling on to it as much as you can. This is only done in the group after you connect with the friends.

S. Lack of connection.

R. Yes.

24. S. (1:05:59) It's not clear how you explain that to reach the right line, the middle line is when we are in the right line, then we go to the left and take as much as we can to correct and then connect the two lines. Can you explain that?

R. No, we will learn it separately.
