Annulment as a Preparation for Ibur [Impregnation], #7

1.Rav’s Introduction: The nullification as preparation for impregnation or embryo I would expand this concept, the truth is nullification is everything through the entire spiritual progress there is no other action but nullification, this is annulment called impregnation and then annulment called suckling, annulment called adulthood. Then it is all through nullification as we are building ourselves more and more as a similar to the Creator and to the extent where we succeed, we reach attachment with Him, attain Him and this is how we progress. Meaning to nullify ourselves, our desire to receive and all the modes and manners He created them intentionally because by nullifying it we can feel ourselves how much we are opposite to the Creator and how much we are similar to the Creator. This is our entire existence so the nullification is the only action we need to do from here all the way to the end of our total nullification, all our action only to nullify, nullify in various ways, various possibilities, opportunities and all according to have the Creator arranges it for us along the way. So, everything according to how much we progress through annulment we attain intellect, feelings in different states and actions to be more and more similar to the Creator and this is how we progress.

Just like we see the embryo in the mother's womb, how it is constantly attaining certain forms and he attains those forms because the mother's womb is giving him the condition to have to absorb and arrange all the forces. This is done only through the embryo’s nullification to the mother to the extent it nullifies he can acquire the form, this is how it works. One can acquire the form of the mother where we need this concept of nullification. Each one needs to take it very internally very slowly, very fundamentally that there is nothing in all reality other than nullification, to nullify ourselves to the Creator's desire, to what He wants from us in each and every state. This is what we need to look for to detect and to carry out, to detect our preliminary work which we need to prepare and there are more advanced stages. There are those of us we have to do in the group to prepare ourselves for the upcoming nullification and there are those that there we are simply as clay in the hands of the Creator and we have to be in self nullification but we don't understand what the Creator does, we cannot prepare ourselves for His actions on us but it is simply nullifying ourselves in potential.

Nevertheless, we have from here till the end of correction, the nullification again and again nullifying our desire to receive first of all innovated we are restricted, we restrict it first of all and this is the meaning of that being in action of bestowal, where you prefer the qualities of the Bina, of the qualities of Malchut and then we come to nullification when it acquires a form externally to work on the inside. Because inside there is the darkness and the desire to receive an outside it is after given the darkness will shine as light and then we progress to more and more new stages of nullification when resemble the Creator with our heart and soul and to the depth of our nature and then we become like as although inside our foundation is opposite to the Creator. Other than this foundation which comes from above all the rest of our thoughts, actions and intentions, everything we have, it is the expression of the desire to receive, it becomes the desire to bestow and then we reach the end of correction. What am I trying to say by this, all we learn about nullification is preparation for a conception, impregnation, nullification is not just the preparation for impregnation but it is the preparation and the implementation of all the degrees from here till the end of correction.

There in the end of correction we replace all our desire to receive with the desire to bestow not the desire, the desire to bestow is the Creator’s but when our desire to receive will work with a new intention, with the imprinted desire to bestow from above and then when we come to the complete desire to bestow, reaching the end of correction of our desire we acquired the form of bestowing, the form of the Creator. Then all of us together called Adam, we who resemble the Creator and after that we all enter stages above our corrections such stages that the wisdom of Kabbalah does not actually speak of in Bnei Baruch to develop for us more and more, this is all ahead of us. I am saying this we will understand that the act of nullification the simplest act of nullification which is in front of everybody in each and every moment as an opportunity, very important action we cannot skip it but instead specifically by doing these actions, we correct ourselves and we become more and more similar to the Creator.

2. S. (09:03) When we nullify ourselves before the ten, what does it mean that we try to find what the Creator wants to give us, to nullify to Him?

R. I do not know what the Creator wants from me, I know that it is, I have the will to receive given to me in a form that is opposite to the form I have to be in. When I see my desire to receive to the extent, I detect it's control over me and I try to turn it into the desire to bestow. Obviously, I cannot attain the desire to bestow because that's the Creator but the desire to receive will acquire of form garment and intention of the desire to bestow this is what I tried to attain.

3. S. (10:06) Can we say that the nullification is something that has to do with craving for bestowal, it seems like when we hear nullification all the time it is a little negative, so maybe the nullification is for the purpose of bestowal?

R. Nullification is when I disagree with using my desire to receive in its current form and above it I want to express myself to act in various ways to resemble the Creator, to resemble His desire to bestow and what way can I do it as what I learnt from the wisdom of Kabbalah. How to do this and this is the process we go through and the impregnation, one impregnation to then 9 months of pregnancy, the labor and then the embryo and then the suckling and then the greatness. These are all the states we are learning from the wisdom of Kabbalah and after we learn how to nullify ourselves all of the study of the 10 Sefirot talk about only by this, all of the points at the degrees in where we nullify ourselves until we reach a complete notification that's it.

it is all

4. S. (11:48) What helps our desire to grow and enter the spiritual state of an embryo?

R. Our desires grow according to how much we use them. Imagine that you have a baby in this world just born and exists in a family, this baby does not receive any intellect, any feeling in the power, certain force. So you get this monster that grows without any intellect, any emotions, this is something extremely important not to himself not to the others. We can progress in spiritually only to the extent we have a special relationship between the mind and the feelings. Meaning desire and the intention over it and we grow this way and then we can accelerate the development with our interaction with the right environment and this is how we grow up.

5. S. (13:23) I heard you say that until the final correction, all we need to do is to work with a desire to receive with restriction and actions of bestowal and I heard you say also that as a result even the desire to receive starts to work as if it was the desire to bestow, so it is not clear what kind of an action this is, what is it?

R. We learn how the desire to receive works in the form of giving but it will come, this can happen. Let's say that I am visiting you as a guest and I don't want to eat anything but I receive some refreshments, some food from you because I want to give you to you, to delight you. I want to give you contentment and this way I eat in order to give you contentment. There are many possibilities for working in giving even with the desire to receive.

6. S. (15:00) How to uproot from us the control and the competitive urges, the selfish nature and be attached to the Creator all the time?

R. We don't need to uproot our egoistic nature, who said that you have to do that? We have to accept everything that exists in the world and only have to arrange them in such a way that they can help you perform acts of bestowal not for yourself for your own sake but for the sake of the other, that which is outside of you.

S. And my mind, habits, all those things they are not a disturbance they do not disturb?

R. As much as they disturb you, they are actually helping you. You have to understand that the Creator did not create anything redundant, you simply have to try whatever you get you have to turn it into the act of bestowal. Again I'm saying that impregnation, suckling and the embryo it is all nullification to the Creator in various means. It is the principle which is the 10 where it happens and then if the person is doing all of this in the ten nullifying to the Creator and to the others. Then nothing is disturbing him, there is no disturbance because everything is help and purposeful. All the disturbances can aim the person to nullification and to attachment with the Creator to the extent he can annul for himself and build out of himself the qualities of the Creator and by that he reveals the Creator. This is why the Creator is not outside of the person but is called BoReh, come and see, and this is as the Creator says “you have made me” because we truly make the Creator out of our qualities in such relationships between the desire of the receiving the desire to bestow. This is called the Creator so outside of us nothing exists, only everything exists only in us.

7. S. (17:43) Do we need to in order to ok so maybe we need actions that help us more to connect and nullify so he needs to get to know each other more to talk about each other, family, kids and things like that?

R. Can you ask one clear sentence?

S. Do we need to learn more about each other in order to nullify to each other more details about family, children and so on?

R. No, it is not important for me what is important is that whatever the friend has I know how to use it in order to bring us closer and closer to the Creator I do not need to poke around in personal conditions in the home and elsewhere.

S. That's not to pick into it but yesterday we had the opportunity to speak to a friend and now I feel much closer and I connected to him.

R. Ok, it is not forbidden. It is good of course but not that I am starting to immerse myself into the friend’s personal conditions and I am going to take care of those things in his place, it is not like that I did not see this also in Baal HaSulam’s students.

S. I don't mean to pick on it or immerse into it but there are friends next to me and I do not know more than two little things about them.

R. To keep going but we will speak about something else.

8. S. (19:46) To what degree do we need to descend into nullification or that nullification is only on my desires to receive?

R. That is the degree to which we have to nullify are serve the desire of to receive which is before myself I do not use that at all completely and the desire to receive I can aim at the benefit of the others, for the sake of the others in the tens, I activate that and the desire to receive that is necessary for physical earthly survival around food, sex, family, honor, money and knowledge which is necessary for my existence I use them in such an intensity that allows me to exist in this world, in order to give up everything else to the group and to the Creator.

9. S. (21:00) Do Kabbalists like you and Rabash still have desires they cannot nullify to?

R. Of course, each one has such desires.

S. So they just agree with them or what do they do?

R. No, you don't agree, you simply continue to work with whatever the Creator gives you.

S. So what if there is a physical desire that goes against the spiritual desire?

R. You should begin to work as the sages prescribe according to what Rabash is telling you in the articles of the society and then you will see how it will aim you correctly the extent to which the mind and the hearts are aimed at the connection with the friends and with the connection to the Creator and there is nothing more than that and all the details you wish to get into, I would not recommend you to get into those details and try to come to these things.

10. S. (22:35) If I heard correctly you just said that in the first step in the first movement, I just don't use my desire for myself. The desire to bestow to the friends I begin to use it, what does it mean to use a reception for the sake of the friends.

R. If I can see that I can help the friends with whatever I have done, I help them with the study and organizing the place for study in all sorts of things like that.

Reading 7 (23:19)

11. R. (24:25) This is a fundamental condition where the person has to constantly feel he has to be a complete zero to spiritual development and from that point on he can progress if he is a zero in respect to his spiritual development.

12. S. (24:44) What is this state of zero it seems like the states are infinite so what is the state of

zero?

R. He writes that he nullifies his existence and for him the desire to receive has no power, no control over him and then he comes as clay in the hands of the potter and the Creator does whatever he wants to do with him meaning he carries out whatever the Creator would have wanted him to do to carry out. From within him there is seemingly no desire, no thought for himself and in truth he has desires and thoughts and he's tired and he is thinking differently but nevertheless, he nullifies himself on top of all his internal condition so he could become clay in the hands of the potter. Whatever Creator does with him as we sing during Yom Kippur, he is as the clay in the hands of the potter and the He has a desire, He raises us, when He has a desire He can drop us and then he brings every different state on us and we are truly in His hands and we are trying to nullify ourselves so only the Creator is in control and over our matter, desire to receive, that is I have received the truth and desires have their own limits of which can interfere, they are there, our thoughts and desires, there are great ones but the restrict them the nullify them and we are fighting to cleanse and depict the Creator as more important than we can depict in our desires and thoughts, to dominate us from one end to the other, this is called clay in the hands of the potter.

13. S. (28:05) After we achieve the annulment, what is our next goal?

R. We have no next goal except how to reach annulment relative to the Creator. And when we reach annulment in our current state, an even greater will to receive awakens, even greater thoughts that are opposite to what the Creator does to me in all directions. Then I once again have to annul myself in my mind and in my heart so the Creator will dwell in me, control me. This means that I am growing. A greater will to receive is added to me and by annulling it, I give the Creator the opportunity to give, within this form of the will to receive, the form of Adam, one who resembles the Creator. This is how we grow. The Creator adds the will to receive and I need to control this will to receive, restrict it from my desire to do whatever I want to do, and give it to the Creator so He will do what He wants with it. To annul myself. Again, nullification, and the addition which I now receive of the will to receive, it also acquires the form of Adam that resembles the Creator. This is how I grow bigger, fatter. I grow and grow and grow, growing in my will to receive, which acquires more and more, the form of the will to bestow that structure is called a soul.

14. S. (30:14) It is said nullifying the being, what does that mean?

R. We have nothing more to do other than to annul ourselves towards the Creator and receive from Him our brain and heart and all the qualities that we need to include in it. This is how we come to the degree of men. That’s it. This is essentially how I attain my form, myself. Otherwise, I just attain the form of a beast, and it’s not a holy beast that’s similar to the Creator, but a beast that is opposite to the Creator.

15. S. (31:27) How do the states that we receive in corporeality help us come to the state of zero and how can we treat everything as one campaign?

R. Slowly, with the help of the group and with the help of what passes over us, we chew, and we grind like grindings stone and turn the grain into flour, and this is how we work constantly. We nullify, nullify and nullify our ego relative to the Creator, in thought and later also in the desire, and in action. We do gradually and everything depends on the combination of our efforts and the upper light that comes from the Creator and shines on us and this is how we change.

16. S. (32:43) The Creator activates us through the desire, right?

R. Yes.

S. And from there the thought arise?

R. Yes, also the thoughts come from the Creator.

S. What does it mean to allow the Creator to control our desire?

R. It’s from my side. I want to rise above the desires and thoughts that the Creator sends me, and for me to want to resemble the Creator and what He is sending me and then I present this to Him This is me, make me into something. I do not want to work with my desire and intellect I want you to control it. I want you to give me guidance and tell me what you want from me. Give me an opportunity to do that which is good in your eyes.

S. But opposite what can we measure it? Say a desire and thought comes to me now, and I make a restriction. But what comes instead? What comes above it?

R. Typically, in the beginning we can measure, compare it to the group. And very quickly we begin to acquire a feeling of what the Creator wants from us and how we can tell what He wants. Meaning, it is quite clear to us, what actions of bestowal we should have done, and how we need to arrange ourselves to do them. Usually I run away from them, from actions of bestowal, from desires and thoughts of bestowal to all kinds of other things in our life. We have numerous temptations. And we need to arrange ourselves here and the group, more and more, so each one will feel that the group is pressuring him, directing him, and by that is helping him not to run away from standing across the Creator. It’s as if the group holds me from behind and places me in front of the Creator, and I stand in front of Him. I have no choice but to perform these actions. To learn, to prepare myself, to think, when I’m at work or at home or on the road, it doesn't matter, my thought is constantly aimed at nullifying myself to the Creator.

S. (36:25) So we always have to be under the influence of the group?

R. Yes. It’s certain that you will succeed because there is nothing more than the group that can correct me, protect me, hold me to make sure I won’t run away from facing the Creator. Otherwise, I will always want to run away, because to stand across the Creator is, usually, the most uncomfortable state. Because the result of this status, when I am standing in front of the Creator, is that I have to annul myself, I have to do what is good for Him. Let's say I want to rest now, but if I feel myself standing before the Creator, I have to study something.

17. S. (37:26) How do we restrict ourselves? I think it has to do with seeing everyday as new, releasing yourself from the past and expectations for the future, and just being in the here and now. Is this the right approach to annulment and our study?

R. If you place yourself so that the group is behind you and the Creator is in front of you, and you have nowhere to run away to, but only these two are holding you from the front and from behind, with their help you advance correctly.

S. And does it have to do with the perception of time, of here and now, that every day has to be as new in your eyes?

R. Yes, of course.

18. S. (38:27) You said that annulment accompanies us throughout the whole process until the final correction, so why do Kabbalists say that the greatest effort to nullify is now, when we enter the Ibur, if later on, the desires are much greater? How can this be?

R. But now, this stage is the most important, the greatest in its essence, because you do not know what spirituality is. And now, when you enter annulment, for the first time you attain what it means to annul yourself towards the upper force. And this is the problem. It is a big problem to arrive there. Once a person feels it, it's already less of a problem, but more responsibility because you can still fall. This entire process he is going through, also from the first three stages which we call the nine months of pregnancy. And also afterwards, the rest of his path is divided into years: 3, 6, 9, 12, 13, 20, 70. This entire path is also full of perils, corruption and falling. So, the person constantly has to care about nullifying himself on higher and higher degrees with the help of the environment and the Creator. Meaning until the end of correction, and I do not know what happens afterwards, but at least until the end of correction, as much as a person advances, first of all he feels himself more and more responsible for the whole world. Because this is how it becomes revealed to him. And he also feels how he depends on the Creator entirely, because all the forces in which he exists in spirituality, they all come from the Creator. Therefore, it determines his feelings and relationships. But nevertheless, it is difficult for me to express these things. The important thing is to understand for the first time, to feel for the first time, what is spirituality, what is annulment. This is why Baal HaSulam and Rabash write that the most important thing is the entrance. It is difficult, because you enter a new nature, the true nature, because our present nature, we then begin to understand that it is artificial. It really does not exist. This is why this world is called an imaginary world. It exists so we could begin our spiritual development in a way that does not depend on anything, from zero.

19. S. (42:19) Regarding the friend who is asking what is more important: self-annulment towards the friends or everyone’s annulment towards each other?

R. Everybody says nullification to each other and all of this is a preparation for the nullification of the person to the Creator the person nullifies to the friends in order to nullify to the Creator, because the Creator stands behind the friends but the person still cannot detect it, he cannot see the Creator in the friend or behind the friend. This is how the Creator behaves with him relates to him and so he sees eventually that this is the friend but this eventually this world dissolves, it disappears and he says that he is in a world that only the Creator exists and He is in contact with the Creator this is something we have to do as quickly as possible and then we will not have such questions.

S. To accept the frictions and the contradictions as help from above is it a correct approach to receiving the result?

R. I cannot answer you because whatever I answer you accept it as an effect as something truthful and this fact is based on such questions that are not exactly fundamental so to say yes or no you might then start to use them incorrectly in the wrong direction, simply continue to scrutinize yourselves.

20. S. (45:11) Great desires to receive come to me, should I turn over to the friends and ask for them?

R. I think that one belongs to the other, I am asking for examinations for my internal scrutinies and together with those I add to the scrutinies in the group, I do not separate the tooth because eventually it has to be like that the end of the act is in the initial thought so that do I get in the end I want to be connected with the Creator in a way, in such a way that the whole group, the whole mankind the whole universe is in myself. There is no other meaning for it except that these are all my vessels, this is all me so whatever I got, I need to be incorporated in the created being with all those things and in this way too I have to incorporate myself and I have to make it into a single form, into a single mechanism.

21. S. (47:10) The result of the nullification I stop one thing or I start using the desire?

R. As a result of nullifying myself I come to a state that I understand that I feel how to correctly use my desires and I cancel in order to receive for myself in that I can examine what I have in order to give to the world, to the group and to the Creator.

22. S. (47:48) The more we progress in the direction of nullification to the Creator, we participate in everything that is necessary, the monster in me tries to dominate more and wants to dominate asking the spiritual progress of the friends in the world as if attaining spiritually but I want to attain it for me and I can see how the environment is suffering from this pressure. I do not know how to deal with this monster, how to run away from it or how to ask the Creator for help?

R. This is a beautiful state to discover, that we will discover how much the animal, this evil animal in exists in us, how it wants to eat the whole world on one hand, on the other hand if I connect to the group and connect to the Creator, as much as it is possible then there is no such thing that this monster will control me or rule over me, what it's called my selfish animal but sometimes of course it happens that I fall and as it says that many have fallen in this battle and many more will. This is part of our work but it is all in order to better recognize the desire to receive the Creator created and then we need to know how through different little incidence, he does not give us the whole desire to receive at once. It is not in all of our incidents in life a little bit here a little bit more and then by these fragments, these fragmentary treatments we can approach the desire to receive and ask specifically thanks to the awakening in us, we can ask for correction from the Creator we can ask the Creator to take care of us. This is the whole thing the desire to receive is called help made against you, the fact that it is awakening up in us is why we connect to the Creator, if we did not feel this evil, we would never turn to the Creator so the desire to receive is a messenger from the Creator sent to us from the Creator.

So then by him not letting us live comfortably and making our life miserable and confusing us, making us angry have no choice but to turn to the Creator so he is helping us to connect to the Creator. We have to appreciate this evil inclination, we have to respect it, it’s help made against you, so there is no reason to complain, but we see that the desire to receive then we have to see that it comes from the Creator, why does the Creator send this to me now, we have to see that the Creator’s work on us and then how, nevertheless through the ten, we can connect with the ten and cool off the rule of the desire to receive a little bit and then we begin to work in such a way that with the desire to receive returns to the Creator. The Creator sends us this desire to receive and then the under its control we do all kinds of things, all kinds of nonsensical things and then we approach the group, we strengthen the connection with the group, we take some pieces of the desire to receive and turn to the Creator to ask for corrections. We always have to see ourselves as me the group and the Creator and if the desire to receive appears then there do I now receive it how do I work with it you are in a struggle here and it is all in order for you to grow as Adam similar to the Creator so there is the assisting force which is the group the general assisting force which is the Creator and then there is the desire to receive so what can we do by the desire to receive regrow to become similar to the Creator literally similar to the Creator called Adam.

23. S. (53:52) Is there a phase where all the self and being is cancelled?

R. No, nothing ever is cancelled. The Creator did not create anything redundant, but each and every one each and every quality, each and every thought, action. It just needs to be in the right place. It is like in a very intricate, complex, sophisticated machine. So, you have many different parts, many different components each doing different actions, you might not understand each one and why it does what it does. But after you see the action of the whole machine you recognize that all the components are necessary for the job. As it is said you did not spare, you did not make anything more, you did not subtract, everything was done in perfection. Meaning the Creator designed the final state first. The end result in the initial thought. The end state already exists, we exist in it already and now we are in a state called a dream. It is said we were as dreamers. Meaning then we progress towards the true final real state that already exists. We advance towards it to the extent that we can correct ourselves, to be in accordance with that final state this is called the progress towards that stayed this is how we correct ourselves. So, there is nothing that can disappear, there is no such thing. Everything has its place. It just lacks correction and the correction depends on us. As much as we can understand that there is a place for correction and then there is a place for everything that exists in creation.

24. S. (56:25) True annulment specifically for the Creator is impossible to make because I am an egoist. I can only nullify for my own sake. Rather we need to come to the recognition of evil that only the Creator can correct things and then to come to the prayer because only the Creator can do so I can nullify myself?

R. I don't fully understand what you say.

S. This entire annulment that I’m trying to do, ultimately I noticed that these are only egoistic attempts to nullify and I begin to understand that I am the one who is not corrected and only the Creator if He will correct me I will be able to truly nullify myself for His sake.

R. This is very good. These are correct states of development. If the Creator does not act if he does not help, I certainly will not be able to do it. As it says if the Creator won’t build the house, then there will be no place for me to be.

25. S. (58:07) He said that the Creator did not create anything redundant. What does it mean that thoughts have to be in their place?

R. That all of the thoughts and desires and anything that awakens in reality at all it all stems from that system of Adam, the broken system which unfolds to become the corrected system of Adam, everything comes from there and there is no speech, thought or action that doesn't come from there so everything that happens is necessary and our work is only two related to None Else Besides Him.

26. S. (59:03) I am an egoist an uncorrected person, how can I see the friend's annulment within reason or is it given only above reason?

R. First of all I don't understand why you need to see that your friends are annulling themselves, you need to believe and accept that they are doing that. All of your thoughts and your hopes, all that you want to see is only how are you going to equalize with the Creator, how do you nullify before the Creator.

27. S. (59:57) How do we relate within me the intention to annul and the evil inclination that is opposite and doesn’t want to?

R. You try to work with the intention to resemble the Creator in order to bestow to the friends and to the Creator and all of these actions, they will certainly happen above your evil inclination. Meaning I try to see how much I want to do some action with my evil inclination and then I imagine to myself, but if I cancel myself towards the Creator with my annulment, what would I do, I envision that I am nullifying myself towards the Creator now, what am I doing, and then I do it. Then I have three states, what I would like to do with my desire, the state that I have nullified my desire and the state that I am doing with the desire to bestow, three states. And it exists in the same state that I am in now and I can envision these three different states and this is how I can advance and it already makes a scrutiny. I have already nullified before what the Creator has given to me.

28. S. (1:02:20) What actions are important to do in the work to awaken from the dream?

R. To position yourself in a state where I annul myself, just to be in annulment, annul myself. So, what do I have to do? What do I have to think? What is up to me to do? And here I feel that if I would not nullify myself, I would go and lie down now. I have half an hour of free time and I’m going to lie down. If I think of annulment, then how can I dedicate this half-hour to the Creator? I go to read, study or prepare myself to connect with the friends. In this way I need to be in the scrutinies.

29. S. (1:03:42) Is annulment about looking for a good quality in the friend, and copy it to myself in the work with the friends?

R. Possibly, yes, it is possible. Yes.

S. What to do with the thoughts that come when one thinks opposite thoughts about the friends, opposite to the connection? What does it mean to annul them? When I think of the friends, sometimes thoughts come that are opposite to connection. What is the right result of annulling these thoughts?

R. So you understand that thoughts that are against the connection with their friends are the thoughts that you need to invert to thoughts of connection, because you're seeing is through your own flaws.

S. What is this inversion?
R. What inversion do you have? You always see the friends as good and great, and then suddenly you see them as repulsive?

S. All kinds.

R. Ok, so this is how you relate to it, that all of these things come to you from above and above both, you need to make a connection to them. What does it matter? Of course, if a person deserves it then the Creator gives him desires, thoughts, pictures that are cruel and the person has to work on top of that.

S. Sometimes it seems like these thoughts actually give you more fuel for work if you have the importance and greatness of the Creator at that moment?

R. In that moment or not in that moment, this is what you have to do. It’s up to you to arrange it. Don't look to get everything on a silver platter from above. You have to organize these things, to see what you are lacking in order to assemble the right relation from the Creator to the group.

S. So annulment is to arrive to the prayer?

R. Yes.

The friends found this poem. We have the version from Rabash

Hinei KaHomer Prayer Like Clay in the Hands of the Potter

He is like matter in the hands of the creator, if he wills, he can expand it, if he wills, he can contract it; so are we in Your hand, Preserver of mercy, look to the covenant and do not turn to the inclination.

Like stone in the hand of the mason, if he wills, he holds it, if he wills, he cuts it; so are we in Your hands, you cause life and You cause death. Look to the covenant and do not turn to the inclination.

Like iron in the hand of the smith, if he wills, he puts it to the fire, if he wills, he removes it; so are we in Your hand, Supporter of the poor and destitute. Heed the covenant and not the accuser!

Like the rudder in the hand of a seaman, if he wills, he holds it, if he wills, he lets it go; so too are we in Your hand, Almighty, who is good and pardons. Heed the covenant and not the accuser!

Like glass in the hand of the glazier, if he wills, he shapes it, if he wills, he dissolves it; so too are we in Your hand, Absolver of intentional and unintentional sin. Heed the covenant and not the accuser!

Like a tapestry in the hand of an embroiderer, if he wills, he makes it straight, if he wills, he makes it crooked; so too are we in Your hand, jealous and vengeful Almighty. Heed the covenant and not the accuser!

Like silver in the hand of the refiner, if he wills, he adulterates it, if he wills, he keeps it pure; so too are we in Your hand, who prepares a cure for our wounds. Heed the covenant and not the accuser!

30. R. (1:09:33) You see, this is all of us. This is how we need to pass our will to receive through all of these transitions, states until we come to complete nullification. And then the Creator creates a shape within a shape, meaning He turns our will to receive into a desire to bestow, similar to Him, and accordingly we are called Adam, and we grow in the shape of Adam more and more.

31. S. (1:10:30) You said to depict yourself as standing before the Creator. Is this work within reason or above reason?

R. That is not important, it’s in what we have. We still don’t have faith above reason, but it’s wherever we are. I don't know where you take these questions from because we haven't risen to the degree of faith above reason. It comes after nullification.

32. S. (1:11:21) Only whoever is able to rise above the ego is able to achieve annulment?

R. Of course, how else? It's not that a person himself can rise above the ego, but rather he asks the Creator to help him rise above the ego and then to rise above the ego or to annul oneself is the same thing.

33. S. (1:12:10) There is like a force within me that doesn't belong to me and I have resistance against it, so what is the root of anger and the tendency to fight against the Creator and against his governance of me?

R. Your will to receive resists the Creator and does not agree with the Creator and is opposite to the Creator, and really wants to kill the Creator. The will to receive that the Creator created, He created it opposite to Himself. This is our root. To begin with, at our root, we are opposite, hateful, we are enemies to the Creator.

S. So we can say that this is the posterior of the Creator? This is also coming from Him and we have to relate this to Him?

R. Of course, yes, and this is what is written.

34. S. (1:13:33) During the period of conception, if there is a moment of work in annulment, how should I evaluate this state?

R. We always need to see with open eyes what state we are in, what are we doing, what do we not want to see, what do we want to see? We need all of this and we have to relate to each and everything in a clear way, not to shut our eyes and our ears, and that goes for each and everything. We are inside the forces of nature and we need to sort them out and ask the Creator, who is the root of all the forces, to arrange the balance of forces in a different way, so that the force of bestowal will rule over the force reception. That’s all.

I see we have exhausted this part. Even though we haven't gone over much, but I'm asking you to listen to this lesson again throughout the day because there were some very important points. Most importantly, that we need to really understand that the point of annulment is not that it happens in the beginning and then it doesn't exist, but rather the point of annulment is our approach to our entire development that keeps expanding further and further. And this expanded point of annulment takes us to the final correction. All in all, we come to, “There’s none else besides Him.” Where? Within our desire.

35. S. (1:16:25) Can I ask about the poem we read?

R. Yes. We took it from the prayers of Yom Kippur the day of Atonement. It speaks about how much we annul ourselves towards the Creator, when we are completely, completely under His control, and it is very important that we integrate in this poem, be impressed by it.

S. (1:16:56) In every verse he gives advice to look at the covenants and don't turn to the inclination. What is this covenant that we can lean on?

R. That we, against all of the disturbances that we see there, we only need to hold on to the Creator. All of our corrections start from the point of annulment, when we see our will to receive as annulled in the usage as it is being used, as the evil inclination, as we are trying to move it a different way of usage, from in order to receive, to in order to bestow, and we start to use it this way.

S. (1:17:51) Do we have some covenants or agreement with the Creator that we can come back to every time and renew?

R. We haven't come out, we are tightly connected to the Creator all the time, even though we don't feel it. We can never grow further away from Him. It only seems to us that we are not a part of or this is distant, but this force is always standing by our side, and to the extent we want to discover the Creator to resemble him we can always use His force.

S. (1:18:39) Where do we search for the beginning of this connection?

R. In annulment. After I annul myself and want to connect to the society, I need a foundation, a platform, a territory where I can do something. This is why we were given this world, even though it is imaginary, it doesn’t exist. Because in spirituality only what belongs to bestowal exists. But it was given to us so that in the meantime, in the connection between us, we can perform these actions as if it is spirituality. So, in this limited framework, which is called the ten, the group, in this small circle, let's try and play, like children playing, with mutual actions of bestowal in connection between us, as if in this connection between us we want to discover the Creator. From the collection of our forces, in a mutual way, when they are pulled together, our tendencies, these forces are drawn together towards each other. And we want to build such a network in which we can understand what the Creator is. And we will perform our actions towards this network. There is no Creator, simply somewhere in the air. He is not there. He becomes revealed only in matter, which we build. So, the network of our connections that we establish between ourselves, we constantly play with this until we discover that this is the Kli of Adam HaRishon, this is the soul and the Creator is inside it. Just like in the network of connections between us, we perceive Him, He is revealed as He is the first and He is the last. First, He is revealed as the essence that establishes these states for us, even if we don't feel it. And later He is revealed in us, in all of these states. It’s as if we attained Him, but behind the scenes He is always playing with us, as if we are doing it, but He is the one doing it. Just like we do with children: they’re playing, but it's as if they're playing, while actually, behind them, we are the ones performing all kinds of actions. This is how the Creator is with us. As a result of this, we start reaching deeper, greater, higher actions, when we already start being as partners with Him. Meaning, there are degrees of Ibur, Yenicka and Mochin and there we start playing with the Creator, truly to be as partners, when He starts to teach us. Like we do with more grown-up children, to teach them a profession or something, until we really attain the entire same attitude as the Creator towards all of creation. This is called our final correction, and then we understand, from everything we go through, that all of these corruptions, He created them on purpose for us to see the advantage of light out of darkness. From not knowing, not understanding, from the pressures, we arrive at solutions. And out of that, as the created beings, we can understand the corrected things upon the corrupted things. And out of that we attain the depth of creation, the actions of the Creator both from the side of corruption and from the side of correction. And we see that everything is only corrections. And there is never any corruption. There is a verse that the Angel of Death becomes a Holy Angel.

S. (1:23:22) So we always have to start the work? Because for a moment it sounded like He begins the work. But now from your explanation I understand that we are the ones that have to start.

R. Don't wait. Don’t wait. And then when you start, you are going to see that He is the one who prepared it, and He is the one who did it.

36. S. (1:24:05) Spirituality. We are speaking about intentions, bestowal, and now you said that in the web of connections that we are building, in the material, this is where the Creator is revealed. What exactly do you mean?

R. Within the matter, which we want to organize in order to bestow. Out of this work, we discover the actions of the Creator, yes. How do we discover it? Try to discover it and you will see how it is discovered.

S. (1:24:55) But the Creator isn't revealed in matter. He is a spiritual essence, bestowal, isn’t He?

R. Do what is upon you to do and we will see.

Baal HaSulam - The Arvut (Mutual Guarantee)

https://kabbalahmedia.info/en/sources/itcVAcFn?language=en

1. R. We understand that there is not sooner or later, there's no beginning or end. Everything is important as one, because we're speaking about the ways the Creator is revealing himself to the created being and that’s why we have chosen to read this again, to go over the matter of Arvut mutual guarantee because it can be that while we went through everything just now, we might take this more seriously, what this article is speaking about. This is actually speaking about the connection between the desire to receive and the desire to bestow in each and every one of us in order to connect us to one system of the soul. Let's say that same 10, so 10 people that when they will know how and why to connect and what the purpose should be in the connection between them in order to establish the net of forces and thoughts and tendencies, desires and qualities that in them the Creator can clothe the vessel for this mutual annulment between these people. That all in all, they annul the force to bestow on their behalf towards the Creator. This vessel that is in mutual bestowal and mutual connection above the ego in each and every one, above the forces of rejection between one and another, if they succeed to cause some kind of connection between them, that this connection shows that it has a mutual force of bestowal above the ego.

Then in the gap between the ego that is revealed in each one of them compared to the others and the connection even though there is an ego in each one of them towards the others, by this we can measure the intensity of the vessel. As much and even though there is a mutual will to receive, a big rejection from one another and they still overcome it and want to connect with one another because they want to resemble the Creator, to reach him and by this to give him contentment that they will give him a place that he can be revealed in, by this we can measure and weigh the intensity of the vessel that they have built and that is called the size of the magnitude of the soul. Let's see what is written about it and all of the forces that they can establish between them, is called Arvut. This is the main thing that not only do I connect to the other and I'm willing to connect to him, this is not enough. It has to be a web of connections, that in all of us we are connected to the other and that is why it is called Arvut that each one is for the other. He must be as if he would be instead of each and every friend, in the good, in the bad, meaning that he has to be greater than everybody and has to be smaller and lower than everybody as Rabash writes in the Articles of the Society. In that way we can organize this vessel called soul, meaning the desire to receive that will be adapted to the qualities of the Creator and then the Creator clothe in it according to the equivalence of form.

Article The Arvut (04:46-05:18) “All of Israel are responsible for one another this is to speak of….”

2. R. This first sentence that all of Israel are in Arvut to one another, that is in the Talmud and in other places, meaning that from thousands of years ago after receiving the Torah that they started using it, realizing it, then they started discovering all the different manners that the Torah demands of us in what connection and how we can be connected. This is how the wise ones, the sages wrote this.

Reader continues: (06:01-07:39) “The Torah was not given to them before each and everyone from Israel….”

3. R. (07:41) Meaning why do we need the Arvut? Because without reaching such relationships called Arvut, that each one is ready and able to be, instead of each and every one, in order to complete each and everyone, then each one feels that he is free from everything the desire to receive can demand from him and putting limitations and obligations on him, he feels free. Then in such a way he can be completely available to bestowing and not being concerned of himself at all.

Reader continues: (08:34-10:44) “With this collective responsibility each member of the nation….”

4. R. (10:45) That means that we see here specifically a very important condition that if I am still troubled from my existence, my corporeal existence and even spiritual and I think of myself in some thought even in the smallest thought that I can't make myself available for actions outside of me towards everybody, I can’t. I must reach a state that I don't know in what way but that I will be certain that I have no concern for myself from here completely. Then in such a way I will be free to perform the actions of bestowal to others and if I still didn't come to a state that I am not concerned about myself so nothing will help me. I still cannot perform actions of bestowal which are real and true, unlimited towards the others. That is just simply showing us the law, if I have the desire to receive and I still have in it some kind of desires to fulfill from me, then I can't think of the desires of others to fulfill, I can act with it as much as I want, play with it but it is still not the truth. Meaning that the law is, the nature is that I must be filled in all my desires no matter what way and why and how, but after when I will be filled, only in such a way that I can serve others in an unlimited way. A very egoistic condition but understood.

5. S. (13:35) In the second paragraph it says once the whole nation unanimously agreed and said we will do and we will here, why did they say we will hear?

R. I don't know, they can perform actions of bestowal briefly, if every nation is in such a state that they are satisfied in their desires they can perform mutual actions of bestowing with no problem.

6. S. (14:26) We're talking about how we're not supposed to be concerned about corporeality because it obstructs us on our path, so is this a place of prayer because the Creator gives us this corporeal life and then it says don't be worried about it but you can feel the ego trying to struggle, so is this a place of prayer because there is a strong pull there?

R. All of our spiritual actions usually are in prayer, by a cry to the Creator to perform corrections. It's not regular prayers that the masses do in all kinds of religions and faiths, our prayer means the plea to the Creator to correct us and with such a cry to the Creator we will try to be in it day and night, constantly to him and constantly requesting. Our requests have to be true and as scrutinized as much as possible.

7. S. (15:44) He says they weren't ready to receive Torah during the time of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob until they came out of Egypt, what does it mean they came out of Egypt?

R. That means that until they came out of Egypt, it is not the geography of Egypt but until they rid themselves of the egoistic desire to receive that they had. Let's say now, you are in Egypt and the desire to receive is in control of you and you just want to enjoy this life, to enjoy the spiritual life that you want to enjoy. Your intention is not to reach a state that you fulfill the others and by that you enjoy, no, the Creator is doing this, he is fulfilling the others and enjoying it and you don't want that for now. For now you are built in a way that you enjoy yourself being filled that is called that you are in Egypt.

S. I'm asking because in the beginning of the last time you said we have to establish a network of connection that everyone is connected in the good situations and in bad situations and that’s the way we can make a vessel so are we already in a situation where we can build this network or not yet?

R. We must connect ourselves in a net called the vessel of Adam HaRishon which is corrupted but it wants to be corrected and we are all connected to each other. We want these connections to tighten and to be able to use them more and more this is called, Man will help his Friend and to awaken one another as is written in the articles of society, that We will strengthen one Another and then turn to the Creator that will give us the help, that will give us the forces and correct the connections between us. The Creator starts connecting the connections between us by showing us how we are not right with one another, that we will want to organize the right connections between us from indifference and hatred, rejecting all kinds of things between us that we will try to reach. From all the incorrect forms of connection between us to good ones. The worst connections are when we feel that we are in indifference, in a lack of feeling that we are together in a group. Let's say I have in my group a few friends that I don't feel that they are present. I don't care about them whether they come or not, whether they influence me I guess I don't influence them. That is the worst thing as it is just like a disconnection. Imagine to yourself that you live with your wife and you have such relationships that you don't feel each other.

S. So what do you want us to do, fight all day?

R. No, not that you fight but because of the fighting and all of the little collisions that you have that we can locate through them what we need to correct and instead of the arguments and collisions we will have love and connection. If we don't have a connection, that is the worst, we have nothing to correct.

S. That's what we are afraid of, fighting.

R. No, you don't have to be afraid of it, if we grab the Creator and we are certain that with Him we can correct everything so we just have to bring Him a place of disconnection, a place of argument and He will correct it, He will correct it. But if you bring him something that there is nothing there, there is no desire, that there is no connection, then what can He correct?

S. What does it mean to give the Creator a place to correct if we are fighting?

R. That I am seeing that I have a lack of the correct connection between the friends and I don't know which way to connect to them correctly.

S. I don't understand what it means correctly?

R. I don't either, the Creator needs to know, it doesn't matter to me and it's not important I don't know, I'm not dictating to Him what to do, I'm just telling Him to fix it.

S. To draw the reforming light while we're fighting?

R. Yes he should help me do that too.

8. S. (21:47) How can we rise above the egoistic self care to care for our 10?

R. That too should happen through praying to the Creator, also that meaning all the corrections, even the smallest correction that you want to happen, you have to turn to the Creator and the more people together. Together doesn't mean that now you're standing and praying, but that you discuss it throughout time and in that time, in that day you are concerned about it. That is called a prayer, a prayer is raising a deficiency, raising MAN.

9. S. (22:50) How do you connect the zeros in the 10?

R. That is not our problem, that is the Creator's problem. You don't organize the corrections, don't be the spiritual work manager. Turn to the Creator that he will do what he needs to do. If you feel a deficiency and if every few more friends feel it then turn to Him and He has to do it. As if you correct something in your life and succeed. Don't do the same thing in spirituality, it won't work never as there's only one force, one system that can correct everything and that is why it is inviting opposite states in us, corruptions so that we can locate those corruptions and ask the upper force that is above the spiritual system that He will work, that He will bring that spiritual system closer to us and the spiritual system will get closer to us and we will feel ourselves compared to it very unpleasant because we are in an egoistic connection between us below. From above it is a spiritual system and then it turns out that those two systems will be working in such a way that isn't good or pleasant, this is what we feel in the world today. Floods, temperature changes, pandemics, fires, all kinds and more will come, all kinds of problems. This is because the two systems are standing in contradiction to each other so that we, from the lower system will ask to be adapted to the upper one, the upper system. Then according to the prayer we raise the deficiency, we raise according to our prayer, so the upper system except for getting close to us, it can also start adjusting the relationships between the two systems, the corporal and the spiritual and in that way we can eventually reach the correction. Otherwise it will be much worse, and that is how we are here too, that everything depends on the mutual guarantee between us.

10. S. (26:00) Normally we say that if we are low spirited and are immersed in the ego, what we can do is disseminate, bestow upon someone else and here it says, you can't really bestow unless you come out of the ego?

R. We are in our ego and we are hoping that by our prayer our ego will become the good force.

11. S. (26:38) I didn't understand the condition that if I am still troubled by my corporeal existence or even spiritual then I can't come out of myself to others, is there a situation where I'm not troubled?

R. I didn't say that, that is what the Baal HaSulam says, it is clear that if I am in the will to receive and in here a negative feeling appears and it is lacking, I can be concerned about something that it will be good to others if it is lacking to me. We are in a net of nature, a net of the desire to receive and that desire must supply itself with what it needs and only when it has what it needs it can be corrected. Let's say that it has nothing but it is satisfied, it doesn't want anything else, it can behave and work. In spirituality we say that the light of Mercy comes and feels the vessels and those vessels don't want anything else because they feel good to be in bestowal, the Bina covers Malchut, Malchut rises to Bina, but if there are no such corrections on the Malchut on the will to receive, so the will to receive demands, these are laws, there isn't something that happens with no reason from itself.

S. How is it possible that a person will not worry about his existence as the Creator gives us health, financial and family problems?

R. We are now in lesson number two, in lesson number one of today, we were speaking about annulment and in that annulment we were saying that we can probably annul in such a way to the Creator that it doesn't matter what He does to me, it doesn't matter as I will be annulled to Him towards all of His actions. What does this mean that I am annulled, what do I feel in this annulment, do I feel good or bad or I don't feel anything? I feel good. My action to annulment towards the upper one is not my action, it is the upper one that is doing it, but I want it and agree with it. It is my partnership with the upper one, it is the measure of my mutual guarantee with the upper one, this is called conception impregnation. Then I allow the upper one to do with me whatever He wants, that is called the embryo in his mother's womb.

S. The Creator sends me thoughts and disturbances and what do I need to do?

R. Of course, in every moment you have to agree to receive it and you ask the Creator for the corrections in order to relinquish more and more egoistic desires that are revealed in you and to get the Creator's control over you. This is called that you are growing as an embryo from day to day.

S. Why should I ask for corrections if this is what He wants to happen?

R. Because he wants it, not you. You need to grow inside of Him, meaning everything that you received from him you should take it as a blessing but you get things that are opposite of what you want to begin with, against your desire to receive, they are opposite.

S. Is there a connection between annulment and mutual responsibility?

R. Through the mutual guarantee you can reach annulment and without it you cannot reach annulment towards the Creator.

S. First there is mutual responsibility and then annulment aren’t they the other way around?

R. You can say both as they are constantly changing.

12. S. (31:55) We say a person has to be concerned with sustaining himself to not be a burden in society and on the other hand we say that we should not worry about our own needs or corporeality. What is the point of connection between the two things?

R. They have to become as one, not to be adjacent to each other like two circles that have a point of connection but that they have to be as one. Everything is expressed in the embryo, in that desire called the embryo, the desires to bestow and the desires to receive, the intentions to receive, the intentions to bestow to connect, all forms of connection between the Creator and the created being, all of these things builds the body of the embryo and after that body, along with the body they also build the point of a brain and a heart and eventually in that body, the mind and heart start being established, that they control the embryo itself. In every cell there is also a part of the heart and a part of the mind.

13. S. (33:48) Concerning relationships should I accept everything and annul and is this also before your mate or is this only relating to my 10?

R. We're not speaking about what's going on in our world, we are learning about a spiritual embryo and how we reach a state of the spiritual embryo.

14. S. (34:43) A person who commits to the mutual responsibility, does he commit to taking all of the corruptions of the friends on himself and if a friend shows you he's not in Arvut with you, you have to be in Arvut with him right?

R. It will gradually be revealed on the way and clarified, don't jump on everything, let's learn how to approach this correctly. You see how we are studying and coming close to this and we are doing these things in order to be the first part, the pioneers that stands and brings all of humanity into connection with the Creator.

15. S. (34:40) Can I enter into conception if the friends are not keeping me in Arvut?

R. It is hard to say, what does it mean to keep or not to keep, you have to work with what you have and to try and bestow to them in such a way that they will enter Arvut. There has to be attendance in the lesson and if the 10 is not present in the lessons you can say that they don't have a chance a to advance. This is why I really don't have what to say, try to get organized in the right 10.

16.S. (36:53) It sounds like what's been given to us in corporeality the intention gets inverted instead of worrying about for myself but to see these things as a way to correct or a set of corrections that are given to keep moving forward on the path so the intention changes?

R. The intention changes, the desire changes, the condition changes in each and every moment, yes.

Reader continues: (37:39-38:20) “Thus you evidently find the giving of the Torah had to be delayed….”

17. R. (38:21) Meaning of all kinds of business spiritual, in the group in the 10 in Bnei Baruch. They have to be completely isolated from our other life as we cannot speak about it, it is not worth bringing strangers into our spiritual advancement but to be connected as much as possible between us only. To the direction of the center of the 10.

Reader continues: (39:08-39:55) “It turns out that even after the reception of the Torah….”

18. R. (39:56) We have to isolate ourselves in Bnei Baruch all of us entirely and there we have to develop connections of friendship, love and support as much as possible. Furthermore it has to be in each and every 10, there it just has to be till we feel the hearts of each and every one that is willing to work with all of his heart for the 10. And whoever can't doesn't want to, let him leave. What can you do as there are a lot that fall from the path, we have seen this and I guess this is the way, afterwards they reach other stages and they join back. Maybe not to us anymore but to those who will come later.

Reader continues: “These rebels cause those who observe Torah to remain in ….”

19. S. (41:40) This is the same law of mutual guarantee that I have to be responsible for the friends?

R. Yes the same, yes, the law of connection between everybody.

S. If I am responsible for the friends I see everybody is already in this responsibility?

R. No it is you who is responsible for them, you by this are bringing them into the mutual guarantee. You are giving them conditions that they too can enter easily with your help to a connection called Arvut, but not that they are already in this connection from your efforts. There must be a participation on their behalf as well, personally and as a group.

S. So this is not the same as annulment when I see everybody else is already in annulment as well?

R. That is something else, also in annulment it is two different forms of observing reality, he who flaws does it in his own flaws. If you annul yourself and you think everybody is annulled and that is correct in general. But on the private side of each and every one they are not as each one is in their ego. The fact that they are performing all of the work that the Creator is dropping on them, that they are doing it, they are not aware that they are doing it from the Creator's desire upon them, they think they are doing it from their own will to receive. The whole world has a will to receive that the Creator created and this whole world is performing in the will to receive everything that it needs to do. It also comes from the Creator. This is called the evil inclination so you can say what do you want from the Creator, they are doing what the Creator is doing in them. We are saying that the created beings reach an understanding, a recognition of what their nature is compared to the Creator and what they have to do with their nature in order to resemble the Creator and come close to Him so they can connect to Him. This is what we are speaking about.

S. If I am responsible for the friends there is still no mutual responsibility because everyone has to be responsible?

R. Right, of course, obviously it is a law on everyone, each one is obligated to do this.

S. But how do we know if everyone will respond in the mutual guarantee or not?

R. You will know as everything will be revealed. Even if I am in mutual guarantee with others on my behalf and willing to work and wrap them with all of my forces, I also see as much as they are trying it and whether they are in it or not.

20. S. (45:20) What does it mean we will do and we will hear?

R. That in spiritual existence we can't come to understand the actions, the essence of the actions before we perform it and by performing it we start discovering and feeling the essence of the action itself. This is why it is called we will do and from doing you can attain the essence of what you are doing which is called you hear.

21. S. (46:09) Is there a certain amount of responsibility that we have to come to so we can maintain bestowal in the ten?

R. Yes of course, we have to reach a state that we have to connect between us in the 10 on the degree of root and then on the first phase and when we reach a second-phase, then we are already in Lishma. We will go through all of these stages and you will see that each day we go through more and more topics, actions, understandings and thoughts and this is how it is. You can't hurry, you can't give a baby some kind of steak, it’s poison for him. In every measure of development you need a special portion, a force that develops and a force that corrects and a force that fulfills and this is how it goes stage after stage.

22. S. (47:49) We must achieve Arvut in the 10, but this is all my perception, on one hand I have to bestow, on the other hand I have to see bestowal in others and it is all in me?

R. Everything you discover and feel and understand is all taking place in you this is what we learned from perception of reality. There are things here that we can't connect and settle yet, but don't worry, naturally we will come closer to it and start to understand how it all combines together. You will see all of creation, this world, the spiritual world, yourself and everybody in the imaginary world will all be revealed to you in a calm manner that there won't be any problems, everything that the upper light will control everything, the Creator, it will cover all the differences and all the gaps and all of the problems and you will see how good it will be.

23. S. (49:21) Those who are not keeping the Arvut should the society cover for them or are they thrown out the minute they do not observe the Arvut?

R. There is nothing automatic here, we are all developing in different values and each one in a different style, this is why nobody is like the other in this is why we need to support each one as much as we can. We don't toss this one and the other one no, we keep everyone and we carry everyone. Everything except for leave as we say, if a person in no way doesn't want to participate, then go, but if he does and he wants to help as much as we can, then you will see how much they advance. The truth is there are a lot of great people in their soul, that their path, their first stages are very difficult, it is very heavy for them to start ascending on the first degree and there are such that get it quick and easy but that they don't advance too far. Those who are deep, big souls, their difficulty is very big. A soul still needs to be corrected to a small extent but you have to go through all of these changes that a person doesn't understand, doesn't agree and everything that happens, I felt this on myself, it is very difficult. This is why we just need to be patient towards each and everyone.

S. So Arvut is a gradual process?

R. Yes, you do what depends on you and you see that you might not need anything else, the mutual guarantee you will see whether you need it or not.

Reader continues: (52:04-52:18) “you therefore see that all of Israel are responsible for one another….”

24. R. (52:19) Meaning everyone who desires to be towards the creator has to be in Arvut to everybody in order to connect all the desires and thoughts and only in such a way they can attain their goal.

Reader continues: (52:32-53:26) “On the positive side if they keep the mutual guarantee to the point….”

25. R. (53:28) There are still places for a lot of corruptions, that were, and will still come, also in our way and we need to be aware of it and we will learn how to go above it, that builds us, it's not that they aren't needed. Nothing that comes to us on the path is not needed, it builds us it specifically builds us.

26. S. (54:04) You said before we have to isolate ourselves and I feel that when I finish the morning lesson and we do this summary that I come to my job and it's crazy there, how do I manage between two worlds?

R. It is written about that, that you need to put a form within a form, meaning you externally behave towards your workplace and internally towards your internal life and there is no problem with it. The Creator did this on purpose that we can learn from those two forms that we must exist in, how we should advance in spirituality and also in two forms. You will see soon that this is what we are going to learn but for now there is this world and there is the upper world and you exist in those two worlds.

S. So should I do a reset?

R. You don't have to do a reset, you just have to be with it. Let's say I go to a place of animals with a few friends, with my friends I am connected with the humans, even a spiritual connection and with the animals we behave according to the way of the animals. If they need treatment, or help, each one at his place, just like you relate to children or to other people. There are a lot of different levels of connection in your life where you relate this way or that way to everybody. There is no problem in this, you have to be flexible.

27. S. (56:26) What exercise do you recommend for us to do today?

R. We today started, that there's no other way in all of the spiritual path but because the Creator is everything and fills everything in there is None Else Besides Him, so we just have to be annulled towards Him gradually, meaning to the extent that all kinds of desires are revealed in me, egoistic, opposite the Creator, how can I annul them in order to connect to the Creator? That is actually my work. That was the topic of the first lesson and onward the Arvut, that we, between us in the group to try to start building such connections that we help one another support one another, each one and the other for example, in help in all kinds of states. We also need to show this help to the others, that I am helping because it brings peace. I give an example and the others get inspired and they start doing, it doesn't have to be something hidden or concealed but it has to be an action of support and help, a desire and interest between man and his friend in the group in a clear way and in this way, we will advance, that was actually our lesson today. I really hope that you understand how we are advancing from one lesson to the next and that these stages are very important and that you, throughout the day will go through them and implement them. Each one in himself, each one in his group and in this way all the groups. You will succeed, I hope you have a day of advancing in annulment and in Arvut.
