1. Rav’s Introduction: Yes, we are learning with you according to how the Torah tells us about raising man from the degree of a beast to the degree of MAN and we have come to a state where we learn what is Egypt the control of the ego over a person that he discovers it and disagrees with it and wants to escape it in the end. Through his great outcry as it is written and the children of Israel sighed from the work through a prayer request and an outcry to the Creator they come out of Egypt in the dark they run away from their will to receive and as much as they can each of them it is really like a herd running away from wolves and once they come out of Egypt they are in a state called the giving of the Torah, where they already receive some connection with the upper light, and their whole work after the 50 days when they come to the reception of the Torah. After that they walk in the desert. We of course are not on the pace as we're learning it, that from day to day we can go through this process spiritually, it takes a long time but we have to still know what the process is ahead of us until the end of correction. That's what the Torah tells us from the creation of the world, the beginning of the creation of the will to receive to the end of its correction, that's basically the content of the Torah.

When will you receive the Torah and begin to work according to the upper light, with still spoiled will to receive that is in the Malchut when they want to raise all the parts of Malchut to the degree of Bina they don't turn Malchut into Bina, they can only add to each desire in Malchut which is initially receiving in order to receive, they want to correct its intention to add to it the intention to bestow, in other words to work to bestow in order to bestow. In the beginning, we don't work with the will to receive at all, we only rise above it to the degree of Bina. These corrections are done through prayer as we always learned that everything is corrected and is attained only through prayer. This is what they do during the 40 degrees which are called 40 years in the desert until they enter what is called the land of Israel which is already the degree of Bina. Rising from Malchut to Bina gradually, through each desire that is revealed as they correct it to work in order to bestow, to bestow in order to bestow, they can't use it as itself but as it is but only by restricting it and using only the aim to bestow. This is called raising Malchut to Bina, more correctly raising themselves from the level of Malchut from the will to receive to the aim to bestow and by this they advance.

It's a process we will have to learn a little more. We have excerpts before us that we picked and we will learn them and after we study them it will be clearer to us, even clearer that our whole work is only in connection between us and a prayer to the Creator, a request to the Creator. Our correct request to the Creator which we raise when we raise our deficiency to the Creator to the upper force basically to Bina is called raising MAN. MAN means May Nukvin, female water. Mayim, water is Bina Nukvah female is Malchut, so raising the desires of the Malchut to Bina when we want it to rise and how we use it to be completely like Bina, to be incorporated in Bina. This is called raising MAN. This is our work. This is really our whole life, to come to raising MAN. To want only one thing all the time to be incorporated in Bina, incorporated in bestowal, to annul ourselves and be incorporated in friends, and to constantly stay in the degree of Bina, bestowal. This is the first stage in the correction. Then when we come to the degree of Bina, it is considered that we have gone through the 40 years in the desert. 40 because it is the degree of Bina compared to the degree of Malchut compared to the number 40 and when we do that and are incorporated in the degree of Bina it's regarded that we have acquired, over all of our desires and an intention to bestow. Then with this intention to bestow which is called Bina we can work with it with our will to receive which is called Malchut and this is regarded as correcting our will to receive in practice, to work in order to bestow.

Then we already don't use MAN, we don't know have nowhere to raise MAN, we’re seemingly at the degree of Bina. Instead we begin to implement the degree of Bina with Malchut which we connect together and this is called being in the land of Israel. Land is Eretz, is Ratzon desire, Israel is Yashar Kel straight to the Creator, the direction of the Creator in order to bestow and we begin to correct all the parts of Malchut from easier to harder gradually to use them with the intention to bestow and this is already regarded as being in the land of Israel. Therefore, we eat the Manna, MAN only through prayer through yearning for spirituality. We live only on that. In the period when we raise ourselves from Malchut to Bina this is called walking in the desert. When we have nothing yet until we come to the land of Israel. Once we have risen to Bina and then we begin to settle in Bina, Eretz Israel. Israel is called the land of Bina is Israel, Yashar Kel, straight to the Creator when we are all aimed only for that. Then we already used the Malchut that rose to Bina before Malchut rises to Bina we only enjoy the small lights that come to us from Bina and correct us so that through them through these lights we can disconnect from the Malchut and connect to Bina. This is regarded as eating bread from the sky from heaven.

MAN is called what we receive from Bina we fill ourselves Bina and what will you receive from Bina, it gives us strength. Of course, this strength is still small because it still doesn't connect to our will to receive the will to receive is restricted, this is why it is regarded that we are in the desert. And we use only that small light that shines for us from Bina. This is why this period in raising Malchut to Bina is a period that's called desert where we don't have houses, life, or food or anything. It is only what we gather, we collect from what falls from heaven, from the sky, from Bina. This is why it is written an out of allegorically that the children of Israel will go up in the morning and collect the Manna that fell from the sky to the ground in the desert. They would collect it and eat it. Each one tasted in it, whatever flavor he wanted to taste. The MAN itself was completely tasteless, just like the lights that came from above and each one according to his deficiency would taste in it the flavor towards which he was aiming, meaning however he wanted, it however he was adhered to the friends and the Creator according to that flavor. He felt the upper light that filled him and this is the period that was 40 years in the desert. Of course, along the way as it's written in the Torah, we have many events. The whole Torah writes to us specifically about after the exodus from Egypt and the entry into the land of Israel. It doesn't write beyond that because beyond that we are already in the will to receive in order to bestow and land of Israel and then we have to continue the corrections from what we received.

The Torah doesn't speak about because after that we just have to continue in the same order, there is nothing new there really but rater what we reveal in this is called the secrets of Torah. It is forbidden to write about but each one who achieves it, discovers it and sees the whole upper system that operates all of reality and he begins to see from the end of the world to its end how everything is arranged and in an ideal circular way. This is how we advance, but in the meantime we are now learning with you about the period of eating Manna or more correctly about the period of raising MAN where to the extent that we raised ourselves to the Creator which is called raising MAN, May Nukvin female water, when the Malchut yearns to be like Bina, to that extent we receive from above from Bina into the Malchut that we are in, lights, and these lights correct us, fills us and elevate us higher and higher to the degree of Bina. It is a very, very important topic, it is really the main correction that lifts us finally from the degree of the will to receive in order to receive to the desire of receiving in order to bestow, from the Malchut to Bina. This is the main story, the narrative of the Torah and when we enter the land of Israel, there we have to live according to the laws that we have acquired in the period of the exodus from Egypt and in the period of receiving the Torah and in the period in the desert, after that it is already working the land of Israel which is called receiving in order to bestow. That's it, everything that we've gone through so far because the work in entering the land of Israel, we can't talk about it we still don't have those discernments, the Torah doesn't tell us about it, only about the entry into the land of Israel. Meaning the entry to the degree of Bina in practice but not beyond.

2. S. (16:22) I thought I heard you say that Manna is tasteless and it really depends upon the Malchut and Bina, how does that work?

R. The upper light that created us created us in all kinds of different ways or manners so that in the connection between us, after the breaking when we achieve connection, we will put ourselves together in a complete way. Each of us individually is corrupted, spoiled and egoistic and selfish, there's nothing worse than that but when we want to connect among us and are searching how to connect, we see that we are different and can’t connect. This is the state that brings us bitterness that we cannot connect and build from ourselves the form of the Creator, form of man, of Adam and then we yearn for this form, to realize that nonetheless between us. Then we out of our yearning, out of this longing we pray that we want to be similar to the Creator in the connection between us, alone each of us we can't but in the connection between us if we are in a small group then we can do this and bring ourselves to a state where some state of connection in us happens. Of course, it will happen through the inner light that shines in us and by this we will acquire the form of the Creator, in the material, in our desires or more correctly in our mutual intentions between us to bestow upon each other.

Through our mutual bestow upon each other to the Creator who is actually the final goal of our efforts, so we raise MAN, a request to Him, to hear our requests and answer and grant it. If he grants it and gives us MAD, the force from above that we receive, it is a sign that our request was correct and this is how we advance. Each time we scrutinize what are our deficiencies in the connections between us so we will be as one man with one heart meaning with one desire which will be called the corrected Malchut and the Creator is the one who will create that connection for us and we will attain in this, the work of the Creator, His work to connect this puzzle of ours into a picture the system of Adam that is similar to Him in every way, this is our work. When we discover that we can connect among us into one picture, one puzzle, this is called 40 years in the desert when we are not opposite from each other, contradicting each other, not rejecting each other that the force of Bina is between us, mutual, so we can begin to be in connection. Then we enter the land of Israel, which is called Ratzon, desire which we begin to process to work in order to bestow and this in itself is called work on the ground, on the premises on the soil on the ground.

This is why the 40 years in the desert symbolizes that we only pray, we don't have anything else to do besides the spiritual work, so we pray to the Creator to send us powers of connection. The forces to connect and then we somehow get closer to one another, there are certainly many quarrels and problems, strives and we discover how in our nature how we are egoistic, we correct ourselves above nature and begin to connect ourselves. It is still a connection the way for example we connect parts of an engine, we put them together but we can't start it yet, we only assemble them so all the pieces set one another. When will you finish fitting all the pieces together, we can begin to start this engine to start to begin the connection between us and this is already working with ourselves with the soil, with the land of Israel, with the desire which is already tilled, processed and is ready to be used in practice. The desire itself that we can use it in order to be so bestow and then we discover in practice what it means to work in order to bestow in the desire and what it means to receive in that desire an impression from the power of bestowal. When the Creator settles between us, becomes revealed between us in practice and accordingly we are then called Israel, meeting straight to the Creator with our intentions on top of our egoistic intentions we already have the restriction, the screen and the reflected light and we begin to practically realize ourselves with the intention to bestow mutually between us and from us to the Creator. This is already called work in the land of Israel. These things are all not geography or history but what we have to do between us, we and all of humanity. Therefore the symbol of working in the desert is eating the MAN, when we can receive help from above relatively small, and so this is the raising of MAN when everything comes to us from the degree of Bina from above downward to the degree of the Malchut when we finish raising Malchut to Bina we can process Malchut properly and then we don't need the food from the sky anymore the Manna, because we can already till the land and by this feed ourselves and by this we are already similar to the Creator, we are already sanctified the land as well, we sanctified the desire itself. I'm sure you have many questions about that story, ask and afterwards we will scrutinize according to the excerpt we have prepared.

3. S. (25:25) Why is it expressed in this way this is the only thing that we can do, we can only receive MAN from above, the Manna, why are other work no other work is taken into consideration and from our ego we can receive and derive any force and during the state of the desert there was only MAN to help us advance, why is it expressed in this way?

R. There was the desire to receive on the level of Bina initially. This was called Adam and Eve being in the Garden of Eden. It is a state that the Creator created with the will to receive which was at the degree of Bina but that degree of Bina they did not acquire it, they were in it these desires, passively, without awareness like a baby in its mother's womb, what does it know? What is it understand? What does it feel what can it do? All it has over all the system, the mother controls so that's what we were like in a state called Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. Afterwards, in order to be independent created beings, we need to disconnect from the Creator, from the upper force. Therefore, we went through an intensification of the egoistic will to receive. This is called the serpent entering us, the will to receive with the intention to receive, the Creator created, there is none else besides him. That serpent adds to the will to receive the intention to receive before the coming of the serpent, those desires were all governed by the upper force, this is called Adam and Eve being in the garden of Eden, they were happy, you know what the Torah says, that they were kind of white, clean, how should I put it, well you know what I'm talking about. So that's how they speak out allegorically about the will to receive that the Creator created, afterwards in order to limit it, to give it Independence, the will to receive was corrupted. Of course, it was done by the Creator, by the upper light that influenced it and then it went through the shattering and the descent, until it fell from the degree of Bina to the degree of Malchut the will to receive in order to receive. This is called the Creator expelling them from the Garden of Eden, these things are not really presented in the stories of explanation of Kabbalists, because we feel them through our work, how it really happened. It is work with the will to receive through the light, through the upper light. When we discover ourselves in the present reality, we discover ourselves after the breaking, after the sin of the tree of knowledge, after the fall of Adam HaRishon from the degree of Bina to the degree of the Malchut. Here because our will to receive all was already shattered into many pieces and by this acquired the force the power of Bina opposite, when we hate each other, when we can't unite, we can't stand each other, these are egoistic desires to receive that don't have the power of Bina. The power of Bina held them in the Garden of Eden and now the will to receive grew and therefore the power of Bina seemingly departed. We are governed by the will to receive and then we go into a process that the Torah already details, the entry into Egypt, the problems with Pharaoh etc. and then the escape from Egypt. We try to use the will to receive until we see that the will to receive is against us, that's what we have to discover today, all of humanity. That this egoistic will to receive is really against us so much that we discover that we find that it is our enemy who hates us to the point that we want to run away from it and somehow be saved from it. We can't defeat it, we can only run away and then escape from the will to receive, this internal moving away individually from it, this is called the Exodus from Egypt.

4. S. (32:05) Is it possible why can't we remain in the state of eating MAN and we have to come through the state where we conquer the land of Israel?

R. It's not up to us, there's that program, the plan of creation which is realize from day today from moment to moment and we can't determine where we can be, how we can be. This we experience this program and it compels us to advance and we who are in Bnei Baruch meaning those people who wanted to advance on their own to the purpose of creation, we want to assist the Creator in this. This is why we are called servants of the Creator, or workers of the Creator. Meaning I want to assist in carrying out the program, the plan of creation. He doesn't press and operates creation through suffering through absence of light on our will to receive but rather we want to do the opposite, we want to receive those lights and develop correctly through them not to receive them and stuff ourselves up with them, which is impossible with our natural desire. Rather we want to put a restriction on the will to receive and receive the upper light in order to attribute ourselves to it, to be incorporated in it to receive in order to bestow, to add to it even more powers from my will to receive which is egoistic to put a restriction on how we use it egotistically and shift it in order to work in order to bestow, so that by this we light up we intensify the power of the light from the tiny candle that is in each of us to the light of Ein Sof, an infinite light.

5. S. (35:10) Can we say that Adam and Eve are in Bina and Zeir Anpin is also?

R. I don't want to answer such questions you're not according to my plan of teaching and you are jumping to these things, I don't think you'll succeed in this. I don't think so, learn what we are learning, believe me that I constantly limit myself, I am restraining myself from speaking more. I want to keep only the right portion that is suitable for your progress if you jump, it will not progress with us. Only according to what I am saying, ask according only to those things.

6. S. (36:18) When we connect in the 10 together, we ask one another what does it mean that we raised MAN in this request?

R. Our correction is only to ask to have the power of mutual bestowal between us so we can unite in a greater desire each time, more and more uniform so we will become more connected this is our whole request we have nothing else to do to the extent that we unite among us, the upper light will be able to bestow in us and dressing us.

S. What does it mean that we come to the quality of Bina between us?

R. We have to come up for the power of the Soul.

S. You said that the outcome of this work is that we did correct all our desires and above when we come to this quality of Bina what does it mean our desires come to Bina?

R. When we receive the desires in order to receive which we egoistically cannot connect because they're all and reject one another but we bring upon them the upper Force, the light and the light connects them, not in the desires but in the intentions, in the desires we always remain in order to receive. We have no way to emerge from it. Pharaoh stays in us, the ego stays within us, it does not disappear, we only work above it above the ego about Pharaoh. We are connected not in the desires but in the intentions. Then we come to a system that consists entirely of egoistic pieces above which we cover all of them with the intention to bestow upon each other. To the extent that in each of us there is a bigger will to receive, accordingly he has to have a bigger intention to bestow. This is why he who is greater than his friend and bestowal his inclination is greater than him, his egoistic will to receive internally is also bigger but he put a restriction on it, the screen, the reflected light and then he reaches high degrees of bestowal. In other words internally we remain egoistic created beings and our ego becomes more and more evident, revealed internally. On top of that we cover our ego with the intention to bestow and in this way we connect between us with intentions and the desires we can never move from one desire to another. Although for the sake of brevity we sometimes write or speak that way but we can connect our desires but our desires cannot connect. We can only connect our intentions.

S. What does it mean to connect intentions?

R. We connect our desires means that we connect our intentions above the desires to the Creator to one system of mutual bestowal and from that bestowal to the Creator meaning inside we remain with the Pharaoh with all those the worst possible desires and they appear in us more and more and they're used in the posterior of each and every face but above it we build the image of the Creator.

S. If the friends come out of ourselves, what are we connecting?

R. We work to bestow between you to reach one intention to bestow to the Creator, if you connect between you your mutual intentions you will come to the intention to bestow to the Creator.

S. Connecting the intentions, this is the quality of Bina?

R. Yes, connection between you wanting to bestow to one another when you connect these intentions this is called the quality of Bina. In the end, what do we have to do, we have to take all the desires in the Malchut, cover it with all the intentions of Bina in order to bestow and come to the degree of Keter, the crown entirely receive in order to bestow.

S. What does it mean to take all the desires of Malchut in the 10 and cover it with the desires of Bina?

R. It means that everything that exists between us is revealed between us we don't know what has to be revealed rather everything that has to be revealed that is revealed we have to cover with the intention of connection between us, to have to reach a state where from this connection is to the Creator.

S. I apologize maybe I am taking on words but you say that we achieve connection in the degree of Bina you also said by connecting we come to the corrected Malchut what's the difference between corrected Malchut and Bina?

R. Bina is the force of bestowal Malchut is the force to receive that and then the intention to bestow of Bina dwells over the will to receive of the Malchut and by that it corrects the Malchut to such an extent that if the Malchut is corrected entirely it reaches Keter, it is called Malchut of Ohr Chozer which reaches Keter of Ohr Yashar, direct light.

S. The corrected Malchut is the next stage after reaching the degree of Bina?

R. Of course we first ensure that we get to the degree of Bina to incorporate in Bina that's why we first exit Egypt we wish to rise above our will to receive and reach the qualities of Bina it would dominate us, to be above Malchut then we will begin to process or till the land with Bina. It's not like they're raising MAN in the desert where we eat MAN and we only receive the light of Bina inside of the Malchut and we correct it. Rather we enter the land of Israel we begin to correct the Malchut itself. So it will be in order to bestow, Israel straight to the Creator gradually it will settle in the head and the heart think about it a lot through the confusion, certainly we will come to a state where everything works itself out

7. S. (45:36) This 40 years in the desert does it mean that we pray only to receive the Manna, the force of Bina?

R. Yes, the 40 years in the desert we receive we acquire the force of Bina and it swells over the force of Malchut, we can't work with Malchut in practice we can only raise our request seemingly raise MAN from us of Bina, we receive the force of Bina on us and we can bestow in order to bestow, raising Malchut to Bina. When we finish raising Malchut to Bina this means we've spent 40 years in the desert we correct the Malchut to in order to bestow, receive in order to bestow not yet in order to bestow but with the desire to bestow to work with it and bestowal and then we work with the next state where we begin to receive in order to bestow. This means we call this tilling the land we're not eating the MAN, the bread from Bina but we're eating the bread from the land.

8. S. (48:06) I believe earlier you said MAN is female water, can you say more about what that is and perhaps it is involved in connecting in the ten?

R. MAN is a prayer to receive the forces to connect in the ten. When we come to a state where we have a complete ten, connected, it means that in the ten we resemble the force, the Creator. We are capable of starting to work with the ten in practice in resembling the Creator, and when we to bestow in order to bestow between us and the Creator this means we come to the degree of Bina, when above it we begin to receive in order to bestow it means were rising from Bina to Keter.

S. Why is it called female water, is it important for us to know?

R. Yes, May Nukvin, MAN, means the prayer requests from the Creator it's called MAN to explain to us that is Mayim, water, that came down from Bina the forces that came down from Bina by the work of Malchut which is called Nukvah, that's why it's called May Nukvin, the water of Nukvah then we walk in the desert there's no water in the desert and you call out you cry out to have the forces of Bina, the forces of water, this is called raising MAN. We also eat the MAN and accordingly the Creator the upper force, clothes in our prayer and this is called eating MAN eating the Manna.

9. S. (51:14) How can we see this process from Malchut to what kind of bond, condition, should we have in the 10?

R. We need to be as one man and one are in receiving the Torah otherwise begin to receive the light of correction, if we are still on this level of giving of the Torah, we're not able to connect together this is the beginning of the connection. Then when we come to prayers and scrutinize through the receiving of the Torah this means we are walking in the desert. We are looking for ways by which you can connect between us and advance.

10. S. (52:52) Regarding what we said about the MAN when it said that they ate Manna it means they receive strength from above in order to come to the request, is that what it means?

R. Raising MAN means raising the deficiency from below up if we are capable of raising this deficiency from below upward this already fills us. The fact that we can turn to the Creator that we can present our deficiency for a connection to him and we are aimed at His revelation in order to give Him contentment and this is already food in the desert. Since in our desires where the only thing apparent in them is the force of restriction we can now connect in prayer in a request and receive according to this request the force of correction and we connect. We begin to, we begin with the exit from Egypt from exile or like a herd by receiving the Torah we become as one man when we walk with one heart and we connect. But this is for the time being temporarily and in the desert, we can act more and more until we come to a state where we are called a people, it is a different structure of the system of Adam HaRishon and then we enter a state where the Creator called, entering the land of Israel. It's not geography, it's not different periods of time, internal states in the connection between us. It's simply a will to receive that undergoes shattering correction and that will to receive that undergoes all those states we refer to it uses historical did geographic terms and so on and so forth.

S. You said that receiving the Torah is connecting on the first degree, but yesterday we said that it is 49 corrections? They already attained the degree of Bina?

R. That is in their state in each state you have those degrees in order to be worthy of receiving the Torah they have to go through these corrections this is called Omer count.

S. Are these greater desires that we have to send you to correct?

R. Correct.

11. S. (56:22) It's still not clear when there is raising MAN concerning the upper 9 in the 10. Why does this from the perspective of the system, why is this not considered as a prayer from one man in one heart?

R. It is considered a prayer when we raise MAN, May Nukvin from Malchut to Bina when we wish to be connected and united in the forces of Bina this is our work we have nothing else but to yearn for this state.

S. When there is a genuine request, MAN is a genuine request is given from the Creator to the person to have a genuine request, the genuine request, concerns, is his friends, the upper 9?

R. No. MAN is a request from MAN to the Creator, May Nukvin it's when we ask from the Creator and we receive inside of our request, bread from heaven, we will learn this, it's best if we learn it from the verses otherwise in one sentence I might not be able to scrutinize it.

Excerpt 1 (58:52 - 59:11) x2

12. R. Meaning MAN comes to us, Manna comes to us, the bread from heaven, on one hand. On the other hand, we say that MAN is May Nukvin, a deficiency that we raised up to Bina. Let's continue and see how it works out.

Excerpt 2 (59:34 - 1:00:03)

13. R. Those are definitions for the time being.

Excerpt 3 (01:00:14 - 01:00:53) x2

14. R. Those are preparations for us to understand the verses later. There are many questions here but it'll get clarified shortly.

Excerpt 4 (01:02:09 - 01:03:14) x2

Excerpt 5 (01:03:19 - 01:04:45) x2

15. R. We need to gradually incorporate with these terms, the definition.

16. S. (1:04:59) How can our desires add to our intention if our desire is to connect to intentions can you clarify this?

R. We don't need to worry about the desires but only about the intentions. Desires are revealed from our broken vessels broken from the outset. These desires are revealed only in the intention to bestow from the friends to the Creator, that's our correction after all. That's why I have such desires in me that I feel ashamed of. I feel that like there's no more room for that kind of desires to rise and reveal themselves. On the other hand, I need to say that it all comes from the broken vessel and I have nothing to be ashamed of. It all comes from the vessel the Creator created and shattered, and I need only to apply the correct intentions over all the desires that are revealed. If my intentions will be for the sake of the society, for the sake of the Creator, connection. In other words, there are no bad or good desires, I will suddenly see that when the intention inverts from in order to receive to in order to bestow, how each and everything will enter from corporeal reality to spirituality in wholeness, completely. That's how it is. So as it's written, ‘there is no righteous in the land who did not sin before he did good.’ First, we have to reveal the sins and accordingly we can correct it.

17. S. (01:07:31) Normally we say that we have to be incorporated in the friends and raise their desire to the Creator. Today I heard from you that we raise MAN from some individual feeling of reality. Can I ask if there is something common in raising the desire of the friends the way we do today?

R. Simply all the desires that are revealed in me I wish to acquire over them the intention to be so -- how do I use them in order to bestow? That's what I wish to scrutinize and that's what I asked for. I wish to receive the strength from above and with these desires that I aim, I begin to reveal the Creator, discover the Creator, the general force of bestowal.

S. Can it be said that the intention is some…?

R. The intention isn’t a form of agreement. The intention is a form of work, how I wish to use the desires that are gradually appearing in me.

18. S. (1:09:09) On one hand, in the excerpt he says that MAN rises from the lower ones. On the other hand, MAN from the desert is awakening from above. How does that reconcile?

R. It will be reconciled. Your question is correct, that's what it sounds like but it will work itself out.

19. (01:09:39) S. It is written that the Torah was given to those who ate the Manna, which is an acronym of devotion. But MAN was given to the whole nation. Is it possible that the whole nation was in devotion?

R. We are not learning history or geography, we are talking about us. If the group is in soul devotion, more or less the same desire that appears in everyone, this is called they are in a state where they are raising MAN and they are ready to receive these forces from above that are also called MAN. Their request, they raised themselves through their request because that's the degree of Bina and the more I ask of the Creator, the more I am filled. I don't need anything, here, except for the force of bestowal. If I have the force of bestowal, whether I raise the request for the force of the bestowal or I'm filled with the force of bestowal -- this means I am in the MAN.

S. Basically the MAN is the request itself, to receive devotion. Is this raising MAN?

R. Yes.

20. S. (01:11:28) What is the process of preparation in the desert?

R. Throughout the 40 years in the desert the group that received the Torah, it crystallizes itself by raising its requests, its prayers, and it comes to such a degree of connection called a’ nation of people.’ Then they come out of the desert and enter a state called ‘the land of Israel,’ meaning a different degree of Malchut. Slowly we need to include and incorporate all those things together and mix things up inside. You get confused about them but later it will appear correctly in us.

21. S. (01:12:47) There are states the Creator gives before the vessel is fitting, can you explain about that?

R. I can’t explain to you about the Creator who wishes to do this or that thing, here we are learning about the system. How do we come to correction and if the Creator sometimes gives something that is not according to our degree, then this is how we understand it to be, that it's not part of our degree, but we accept it like that? Sometimes a person receives a certain illumination, a certain feeling of the illumination of Bina that surrounds him, it shines to him, he is inside a big cloud seeing the whole world full of certain lights, a certain force, the force of love. Sometimes there are such states but we don't learn about them because for the time being, we are learning about how we can work in order to reach healthy sense of spirituality, clear and understood according to degrees.

S. It is not clear from the perspective of the system how we receive before there is submission because we know we can't receive if we don't have a vessel?

R. Somewhere we'll see what we're asking, but I'm not understanding what you're asking.

22. S. (01:15:09) In Excerpt 3, I wanted to ask what type of spoiled bread was it, it's not clear?

R. Bread from the land that is without taste means that we did not reach a state where we enjoy the labor, enjoy the exertion. That is what fills us and that's why we are not filled by bread from the Earth.

S. There was a commandment to eat the Manna on the same day. What does it mean ‘on the same day and if you keep it for the next day that it gets spoiled?’

R. You have to live in those desires that awaken in you and accordingly yearn to reach correction and accordingly, raise MAN.

S. If we don't do this on time?

R. Then how can you live in such systems that aren't working according to the desires, according to the commands. Of course, you can be only according to that day. Of course, if you live not according to the desires you have now but according to the desire that you had yesterday, this is a corrupted, spoiled state. We are not letting go of this topic, you will understand those things from the sum total of the things that you hear. We will pass over everyone to speak about it. It'll take another day or two. It will take time before we are all sitting in it and start to discover it. Everything that is written in the Torah has to be clear to you because this means instruction, it is a blueprint for the correction. This blueprint has to be clear to us, to all of us at least in broad strokes.

23. S. (01:18:06) The explanation that we received about Malchut and Bina, schematically I understand it. I wanted to ask about eating Manna, receiving pleasure from exerting in the connection in the 10 and in this feeling to adhere to the Creator, is this eating the Manna?

R. Yes you said it beautifully. Pleasure in spirituality from bestowal, therefore who are those who eat the MAN, who enjoy bestowal? That is their food. You said it beautifully. I am happy about you.

24. S. (01:19:01) To receive the Torah during the 49 days of the Omer count. There were corrections. In the excerpts we read now, we see that there was no effort on the part of Israel.

R. We will learn about it, your question is correct. You wait, you’ll have an answer soon.

25. S. (01:19:45) What does the unity in the bread of the earth mean? Does this contain two opposites?

R. Correct, he asks nicely. It contains both opposites because ‘bread from the land’ meaning when I work with my will to receive in order to bestow and I fill myself on that, meaning that my bestowal becomes reception.

26. S. (01:20:45) In the article it talks about ‘without work,’ so ‘they ate the bread from the sky, the awakening from above without any work.’ So, what does this mean for our ten? Are we really doing no work or what work are we actually doing to be in the state of ‘without work?’

R. ‘Without work’ means without work on the will to receive itself, rather above it, we come to the degree of Bina where we wish to raise all of the desires of Malchut to Bina. This is why it is called ‘without work.’ We walked 40 years in the desert, walking in the sand in the desert and we derive fulfillment from it. And that fulfillment does not come to us from tilling the land, growing your own bread, resembling the Creator. Rather only by giving up the corrections, expressing the corrections by associating ourselves with Bina, we receive MAN from the heavens MAN seemingly should rise from below up and, here, it is the other way around. It is the bread that comes as a fulfillment that comes from Bina to Malchut. We need to understand how this happens. How a person is filled by raising his prayer and this is his fulfillment.

S. Is it just accepting this state or is it really a group work? What are you actually doing to not do anything?

R. In practice, we need to try to connect between us throughout all of the forty years in the deserts. Meaning that Malchut that can resemble Bina in bestowal, this is called ‘the work in the forty years of the desert.’ We have to connect in such a way that from our connection Bina will appear, be revealed, that is the state. We derive pleasure only from that, from our ability to bestow this is the explanation of those who eat the MAN.

27. S. (01:24:08) We said that we restrict ourselves, our Malchut and rise in our intentions to Bina. Then you said that we have to try to locate, find out how to use our desires to rise to bestow. How do we do this?

R. Try to exert a connection and you will see how it will appear. You are asking such questions, sometimes, that I won't be able to explain more than just saying something about it, a sentence. But when a person discovers that sentence inside of him, he understands his essence, how it is happening, how it is taking place inside of him. If we won't reach the correct connections inside of the ten, we will learn the things theoretically, in potential alone. I don't think that we will have any grasp of it. You will be confused by it. If it's not revealed in the desire, it has no meaning. This is why as quickly as possible we need to reach connections.

S. We try, we work on the connection all of the time. We just have to understand what we do with the egoistic desire when it appears after we try to connect.

R. If you have reached a certain degree of connection and egoistic desires appear, then you need to add them to the connection. Meaning to turn them into the greater and greater force of connection.

S. What does it mean to add them to connection? Before that, we were working in restriction constantly?

R. Restrict yourself even more. Let's say that you have come to a certain degree of connection with the friends. You restricted your desires, he also restricted his, and you have reached a certain level of connection between you. Suddenly new corrupted desires appear before you, between you, and then you have additional work to restrict those desires, to appreciate the friends not according to how you feel but according to how you imagined that you should. Then according to how Rabash writes you cause greater and greater connection until you pass all the forces of separation into the forces connection so they don't stand in the way of the connection. Then you have reached the degree of Bina and you begin to work with the Creator between you so He will be revealed. Then you have greater and greater work in connection in order to receive the Creator who is being revealed between you. Meaning you have to reveal the will to receive between you, otherwise how what you reveal the Creator?

So then, to the extent that you can awaken the force of reception in order to bestow between you, the Creator will appear between you. My problem is that I am saying words but these words are not so significant, they don't come from the action. We are going through things that we still cannot realize and implement. Nevertheless, I decided that we have to go through this in order to recognize, in general, the process a person goes through from the beginning to the end of correction. Later we will repeat it again and again, just as we read the Torah each and every year. So we will have to do the same until each time it will be clear to us what we are going through, what process we are undergoing. We will understand the beginning of it from its beginning to ending, since there is no time in the Torah. Rather only from understanding the entire process and delving into all of those shapes and forms, in this way, we begin to understand what it is talking about in general.

28. S. (01:29:44) What is the feeling of the state to be alive and spirituality? What is that feeling?

R. You want me to tell you about a feeling?

S. If you can.

R. It feels good, is that okay?

S. What is good?

R. I don't know what is alive, how are you asking what is a feeling?

S. We are always saying about work that isn't through the mind but to feel so what is this feeling called alive?

R. You will come to it and ‘taste and see that the Lord is good’, and those who don't come and doesn’t feel the Creator he doesn’t see, he doesn’t taste, it says ‘from your actions we shall know you.’ You have to come to it and then you shall taste it. This is why it is called ‘the taste of Torah. It is the inner light that expands the Partzuf of the soul.

29. S. (01:31:03) Is eating MAN enjoyment of bestowing or a deficiency to bestow?

R. For the time being, raising MAN is from a deficiency for the forces to bestow, for the desires to bestow, more correctly for connection. I am asking for deficiencies for connection, the desire for connection, the forces to connect, all of it may be considered to be raising MAN, my request from the Creator and that fulfills me. I have a certain attitude towards the Creator that I can raise my request to Him, to come closer to Him through the connection in the society whereby that I arrange and make room for His revelation in order to delight Him. This is considered filling for me.

S. So, first the enjoyment is a deficiency and then the enjoyment will be the bestowal itself?

R. This is like a person in this world where some work to get a salary, but the true worker enjoys the work itself. It fills him, this is called a master craftsman. He doesn't care about making the money or doing something, the work itself is where he finds the fulfillment. Why do we say that spirituality is entirely fulfillment? Because it is hard work? No, the work itself becomes the fulfillment. It is like taking the ability to feed the baby from a woman, is this work for her or is this enjoyment for her? Sitting with the bottle or however she feeds him, looking at him eating -- this is her joy. Even though it is bound with hard work or money, etc. Meaning there is no spiritual work. You can ask, “what do you mean there's no spiritual work?” There's a restriction, screen and reflected light, great efforts and everything is above the will to receive. It’s by sweat, this is true. This is the joy. Because according to this exertion, it becomes joy. You sweat and you are tired but this is the enjoyment. How many people in the world engage in sports, isn't that hard work? Don't they lose calories? They get pleasure out of it. This is how we will reach a state that is connection, working on the connection between us, this is our pleasure.

30. S. (01:34:40) You gave a definition for ‘bread of the land’ and at the end of the words, you said that bestowing becomes reception. Did you mean to say reception becomes bestowing?

R. Reception, the force of reception is that I process it, or lose it in order to bestow. Or that bestowal, for me, becomes reception. I enjoy bestowal, that I am fulfilled by bestowal. So seemingly the more I bestow the more I receive. The same intention, same action, the same relation to someone who I bestow to, is like with the mother and baby, that we do anything clearer than that in our world. The more she bestows her baby, for her, it is more pleasure as if she is the one eating. She is being fulfilled.

31. S. (01:36:16) Can we say the Manna is Shechina?

R. I'm not answering that, don't bring us things that we didn't learn but rather you are fantasizing, it seems that you connect these things in this way. Even if you do understand the answer, others won't, this is why I won't answer by saying yes or no. I will only answer things that will be clear to everyone only in the framework by which we can connect between us. By these actions in what you're doing is separating us.

32. S. (01:37:13) 10 minutes ago you gave an answer that there is no more room for these desires, and it struck me, it made me think about the MAD, the process where we make the change of our desires. What we see as important, and what we want to get rid of. For the answers to our prayers, can you explain how this process works of exchanging our desires?

R. The desires don't change but rather the intentions from in order to receive to in order to bestow change, the desires remain as they are and are gradually being revealed according to the plan of creation and we should try between us, to connect and ask for the light that reforms because everything is attained only by the force of the prayer and then our desires will get the intention in order to bestow.

33. S. (01:38:47) The question about no fulfillment from working in connection, what should we do if there is no fulfillment from the MAN?

R. From my yearning or in some way wanting to reach connection and not being successful at that so I have no satisfaction.

S. If the ten works in connection we said that's the work and there's no fulfillment that we see as a reward, so what should we do?

R. We should continue with a mutual strengthening that is mutual work we do in order to come closer together that brings us closer to the Creator that should be revealed between us. If this is so we need to be happy that we are coming closer, that we are working every day in this way. Having no happiness there is no happiness in your will to receive in which you are trying to see egoistic results. But if you will see every day how much you are bestowing to your friends and through them to the Creator, you may be very happy with your action. Yearning for fulfillment is such an egoistic form, that it is very good you're not getting the fulfillment and when you're happy and didn't receive, well, let your will to receive suffer, and understand that it has to rise above itself.

S. He receives pleasure from the work itself so how do we become artists in connection, what do we add?

R. With each and every detail we invest in the connection between us even though we don't see any result, the investment in the connection itself is our fulfillment already. When the Creator gives me an opportunity to be in connection that is the reward for me already.

34. S. (01:31:37) Rabash wrote about the bread from the sky that the abundance came without preparation and he writes about the bread that came by the exertion of the lower one so what is it?

R. Where did you see this? I'm going to read it, the children of Israel walked 40 years in the desert, they only walked in the awakening from above. This is called bread from above. It is not that they themselves don't raise MAN, they want to be corrected, but they don't have these deficiencies in themselves. The abundance came to them without preparation on the part of the lower ones, without exertion, why is this not called exertion? Didn't they fight between themselves? Didn't they make the connections in order to be adapted to the land of Israel? This is how it is called, why? Bread from the earth means abundance comes to the work of the lower ones and we feel very little taste in it the abundance is called spoiled bread, meaning without labor and our soul has grown loathsome of this bread because if something comes without labor, we feel very little taste in it compared to something that comes through labor.

S. Should we exert or not?

R. We have to make efforts everywhere either in the desert before the desert, in Egypt or later when we come to the land of Israel until the final correction, we have to make efforts because without the effort we attend nothing, we won't have the vessel to receive the attainment of godliness if we don't add everyday an effort to connect. Our daily establishment of the connection has to be more and more organized, prepared and then we come every time to the revelation of the Creator more and more. Either in the degrees of the desert or in the degrees of the land of Israel already, but the exertion for connection has to be.

35. S. (01:45:02) There is a MAN which is a request for the right deficiency and there is MAN which is the request for bestowing and connection?

R. There is no difference, what is the correct deficiency, the correct deficiency for connection. I act on behalf of the vessel. I can't tell the Creator to be revealed to me, I can ask Him to give me the strength to discover the vessel you can be revealed that I can give you contentment. We are not asking for the lights. We are asking for the corrections.

36. S. (01:46:01) In complete rejection and complete darkness, how am I supposed to raise MAN?

R. You try to be a bit closer to your friends, try to envy them as much as they want connection in order to reveal the upper force in the connection and then you will want to be like them. Out of envy to them you will ask the Creator, you will also have a desire for connection as they do and you will reach the state that in the connection between you, you can discover the upper force. If we do this between us something that resembles this one which is nature, we will discover it between us.

S. There is one point that is not clear, there is a deficiency for connection, but from the deficiency, there is a struggle and the struggle brings rejection, separation against friends, against connection, against the Creator so it is hard to justify and hard to turn to the Creator in that state. While I can't turn, what am I supposed to do?

R. You should be with your friends as much as you can so that you can start envying them, how between them are nonetheless connected, there is some understanding and feeling between them and you're not like them. This is how you will reach it. It doesn't matter in what way you are, and what state you are in the group. If you look at them you can be certain that you will get such a feeling that you are not like them that they are closer to each other, they are more advanced, they are simpler and more open towards each other and this is how it will be certainly revealed to you. This is how it is arranged for you from the Creator, that you will have envy and they are connected, closer to the revelation of the Creator, they are more advanced and out of that you are going to start asking that you also will have the same tendency to connect with them. You will see how it will be.

37. S. (01:49:46) What vessels do we have in the ten to strengthen the greatness of bestowal seems to us and to enjoy the work for the sake of the work?

R. For this we already need to be in the quality of bestowal to the extent that we ourselves are in the quality of bestowal we will see bestowal around us. To the extent that we come closer to the corrections, we will start feeling that the whole world is corrected. Do you think that if we come closer to the final correction, we will see the whole world corrupt? No. We will see everyone who makes a flaw, he does it buy his own flaws as there are no corruptions, everyone is in bestowal. Everything only depends upon the correction of my view, of my sight, my personal one. There is no one in the world suffering. It only seems to me this way this is what we will discover in the perception of reality, it is very hard to understand or to perceive it now, it can be confusing. But nonetheless I have to say that this corrects us.

38. S. (01:51:57) Why does the Creator say go and fight for my bread, does this mean to eat the bread without fighting for it?

R. That is the equality of connection between Bina and Malchut, there is bread from the heavens and there is bread from Earth. You don't yet have the vessels of reception in order to bestow corrected, so bestowing in order to bestow is receiving bread from above, from the heavens, MAN. When we can only raise our request to the Creator, when we are already in the land of Israel, in this state then we can raise MAN differently. When in our MAN there are parts of Malchut we want to receive in order to bestow and this is why it is called bread from Earth, bread from the land. When we bring the crops, the vegetables, the fruits which can only be in a desire called straight to the Creator, Yashar Kel, Israel, this is how we advance and before us we have MAN and MAD, if it only depends on the work above it is MAN if it depends on the work below in Malchut it is called MAD. In the beginning we learned that our requests from Malchut to Bina is called MAN and what comes down is called MAD but here it is different. Once Malchut receives the quality Bina the work that it has on its own is different, it wants to bring the fruit it wants to resemble the Creator, this is why the same meaning of MAN and MAD changes in its essence.

39. S. (01:54:51) When a feeling of bestowal comes, they are coming closer to a degree of connection, is this clear in that state that I have nothing and it's all from the group, what can I actually give back to society if every time I discover that it all came from society?

R. Not only can you bring something back but you discover that the entire society depends only upon you, 100% that the whole society is corrected and the attainment of the goal, the complete go depends only upon you. This is why there is no problem here, don't worry as you will always have before you a subject, a reason to raise MAN until the final correction.

40. S. (01:56:21) It is not clear why in excerpt number 3, why it is written that the bread of the land is corrupted, why is it called the bread of corruption?

R. Because if we don't yet have the forces to work with the land, with the ground in order to bestow this is called before the entrance to the land of Israel as we don't have the force to process the desires in order to bestow that will be straight to the Creator, this is called corruption and a very big corruption. It brings us to the shattering immediately this is why we are not to enter the land of Israel before the correction of the vessels of bestowal completely, this is why in the entrance to the land of Israel, starting to work with Malchut in order to bestow we have a very big struggle. That in Malchut there are seven such fundamental desires that we have to fight with, to expel from Malchut and only in what's left in our Kingdom within in Kingdom, and we can work with in order to bestow with Malchut in a gradual manner. When we correct it by conquering the land. This is something that we will learn, that is before us.

41. S. (01:58:38) From your explanation I can understand that receiving in order to bestow is something you only do when you enter the land of Israel, Rabash article 25, says receiving the Torah is receiving in order to bestow?

R. You are confusing receiving Torah and receiving Malchut to do work, these are two completely different degrees, receiving Torah means to start being in contact with the upper force and receiving the strength to correct Malchut at least until the degree Bina and it is called the 40 years have the desert. Then you enter the work Malchut itself where you are corrected in order to bestow in practice. This is very special work and you have to do that, this is called the entrance to the land of Israel. We just have to understand that when we rise in the restriction above Malchut we want to integrate with Bina, as much as the force of bestowal dwells within us being above the force of Malchut. When we are incorporated in the force of Malchut, in restricting it, then above it with the force of Bina, it turns out we have two forces, the force of Malchut below and Bina above and there's no connection between them. Malchut is called the desert and we can't turn it into something that we can live in, only Bina being above Malchut, brings MAN, brings us food and from this whole process we get small illuminations from Bina. When we finish settling Bina and Malchut and we already have the preparation to work with Malchut itself is called entering the land of Israel, to that same Malchut receiving intentions in order to bestow meaning starting to receive Bina in it and this is the meaning of us entering the land of Israel. Then we start working with the desire to receive in order to bestow.

42. S. (02:02:06) According to what you just said I wanted to ask what does it mean that we placed Bina above Malchut, that we stabilize it, how is this built?

R. I already said it a few times, in general what we are doing is we are disconnecting from Malchut, meaning we come out of the control of Pharaoh and we start having a connection with Bina, we start getting the forces of Bina being above Malchut call the 40 Years of the desert. Later we start working in Bina and Malchut, as much as I can connect every part of Bina and Malchut, truly the connection of the shattering.

S. What does it mean as much as I connect a part of Bina to Malchut?

R. The moment you acquire the qualities of Bina having the qualities of Malchut to begin with and you restrict them to acquire the qualities of Bina, you have two parts, Bina and Malchut. They are not connected and you start to process the Malchut by Bina and when every part of Malchut receives an intention in order to bestow and it is already called the work of the land of Israel, a desire that is aimed at the Creator.

S. Can we say all we need to do is hold onto connection and mutual bestowal in Bina and the Creator will reveal a new part of Malchut every time?

R. It is exactly as you said, if we all the time only care about the connection between us and from between us later to the Creator, this will bring us to the final correction without all of the wisdoms, without knowing anything but rather that simply this is the direction.

S. In what way read here, MAN comes from ZA?

R. This is how it comes. ZA is what connects Bina and Malchut and this connector, once it works connecting both, once connecting to Bina and once connecting to Malchut, it always stands along the way between us. As we learn from the four phases of direct light ZA is created when Bina wants to give birth to Malchut, this is how it gives birth to ZA on the way to Malchut.

43. S. (02:05:57) Out of what you said, what is the difference between MAN and Torah?

R. The Torah is the entire light that comes from above upon us to correct the shattered vessel of Adam.

S. When we come out of Egypt will we receive MAN?

R. If you prepare yourself to receive the Torah after you rise above your ego you will start receiving the upper light from above and that upper light will start coming to you in a gradual manner called MAN, according to your longing for the correction which is also called MAN, that you raise MAN.

S. Now that we are in Egypt with this lesson what are we getting now?

R. Now we get a small illumination according to our efforts to connect, to correct, as much as we yearn for the connection between us, by that we discover that we are yearning for the Torah. For the light. According to that each one advances personally.

S. You said that the craftsman is someone who enjoys his work and we are also supposed to enjoy our path, learning about bestowal, trying to go on the path of bestowal that we have to go through in a kind of pleasure with all of the difficulties in the process. How do I get rid of my concerns about myself?

R. On the path if you think of the others you are relieved from concern about yourself.

S. These things come naturally, what is going to happen to me, my provision, my health?

R. It is a sign you are not concerned of the others, if you were you wouldn't feel concerned about yourself, to the extent you are not concerned about the others yet, you are shown you are not bestowing to the others yet and by this, the concerns about yourself are awakened. Except for that, as much as you advance towards the true correction you will yearn for those same corrupted states that you felt because you had an opportunity to show the Creator that you are yearning to him even though the questions come. Meaning, whoever reaches the end of correction and has sorrow on the other side, where all of those states that I was sweating and trying to be in connection and I couldn't, he yearns for them. Then the yearning for the past joins him in the end of correction and adds the deficiencies where he can feel the end of correction. That is called the darkness will shine as light.

44. S. (02:10:07) Does the taste of the Manna mean enjoying the taste of bestowal be revealed in our ten?

R. Yes exactly, you said it very nice. Enjoying bestowal, raising the prayer, what I am asking is that the prayer and the work itself become the filling and pleasure, that is exactly the food from above we receive.

45. S. (02:11:12) You said we need exertion for raising MAN, what is the correct exertion?

R. To have a deficiency to connect and in that deficiency we can raise it to the Creator to give us the force to connect and if we don't have a deficiency to connect, that deficiency we also raise it to the Creator. This is called a deficiency for a deficiency and this is also called MAN. Actually what we receive for that deficiency, the response is also called MAN, we will learn it.

46. S. (02:12:39) What does it mean to rise above Malchut? Is this doing a restriction or something else?

R. Raising above Malchut means above the intentions to receive for myself and that I will entirely be aimed in order to bestow to the friends and through them to the Creator. That is why, here the matter is the desire is to receive for myself I restrict and if there is a place that I discovered to bestow to the friends it expands and I can reveal in it.

47. S. (02:13:40) The time of the desert seems like a survival period, some don't survive. What ability do we need to develop to qualify this special time?

R. I don't think this about the period of time in the desert as you're describing it, the time in the desert is when it is clear to me that I can't use my own desire to receive, but that I will build an intention to bestow above it and in such a way I can exist. When I am enjoying is only as much as we are all enjoying in the group, that we are all bestowing in a mutual way and that is my upliftment from my private Malchut, my private Malchut I restrict it and I want to be included only with the friends and only in the connection with them do I want to feel that I have a place, food, existence, only in connection with them. Just as Baal HaSulam writes about the last generation also, that is the time of the desert. I don't think about the time of the desert as a period that isn't good or restricted, that we live in a restriction, no. We advance towards good things and we are enjoying the fact that we don't need to use our will to receive in order to receive and that we are filled with our relationships, intentions in order to bestow, according to that the light of Bina shines upon us, the light of Bina it’s already the Creator's shining upon us but He is still revealed to us not in our own vessels. Either as fire, or lights but not in our own vessels from above. This is how we advance.

48. S. (02:17:01) We were talking in the lesson about our future state and we are going out to the day now, what should we talk about today: the current or future state?

R. You need to read excerpts, what we read yesterday and today and what we will keep reading tomorrow even, you should read them all and even a few times even if you get confused in them and it won't be understood. You will feel that every time you understand them in a different way, that it doesn't matter. We need to connect to the excerpts and that can only happen through confusion, so let it be confusion, the main thing is we will go in there to absorb it as much as we can. Look how we ate, we get some pieces in our mouths, we chew them, we swallow it then it goes through the whole digestive system. It receives this food and disassembles it into all kinds of chemical parts and from that we feed, look at the work we have to do to build such a spiritual system within us. There is no choice as we need to invest ourselves and this more so read and read and read all of these excerpts from yesterday, from today, from tomorrow. It doesn't matter, just not to get confused, read it according to our topics and don't bring me questions from things we did not study. Those that are outside of these excerpts, I don't want to hear about it because it will only confuse us. I want confusion only if it can be solved right away so that we can enjoy it correctly in our yearning, the main thing is our yearning, a new one, a correct one.

49. S. (02:19:42) You answered one of the friends previously saying that we advance personally in this time and it confused me a bit with us trying to establish the work of the 10 together. Can you explain this a little bit please?

R. Personally we advance in the connection between us, what is personally? There is no personally, as it doesn't exist in spirituality. As much as each one yearns to understand his work to come closer to the other. From the beginning of the studies of the wisdom of Kabbalah until now you only study one thing that we need to connect in order to be suitable for the upper light that it can clothe in us, to shine in us that we will understand and that we will feel where we really are.

S. So there's no contradiction here?

R. There are no contradictions, only in the way you are confused, not that there is a contradiction.

50. S. (02:21:09) It feels that during this period, we build the sensation of bestowal. How can we accelerate this in a happy way?

R. It depends upon the group as much as you can raise the spirits and the mood for one another and in the group there is no problem, we have learned about this many times. Now you are asking about this. We have already spoken about it, man will help his friend, how we raise the spirits, how we support one another, how Rabash writes in the social articles and how we need to support one another. You think that every lesson I can repeat everything that we went through, it is impossible. This is what you need every so often, actually every time you have to go back to different parts and it is also desired that you write all of these things in front of you, all of these summaries, that you can afterwards have somewhere to look and read your summaries, what you have to do, how we have to ascend, how to bestow to one another. These things need to be prepared for everyone.

51. R. (02:23:23) So tomorrow we will keep reading these excerpts, maybe we will come back to the ones we already read and in this way we advance. Obviously, what we are studying now isn't in practice right here before us but it doesn't matter because we already understand how we can reach it, by connection, by drawing the lights from above, that they will be corrected and connect us to bring us to the revelation of the upper force. To ascend to the degree of Bina is to ascend to the degree of the next world and this is before us. For now, with everybody we are advancing to the end of the lesson.
