Lesson No. 3: Growing Stronger in There Is None Else Besides Him

1. Rav’s Introduction: Yes, this is already the third lesson, lesson number 3, there is None Else Besides Him getting stronger in this feeling. We are coming from afar, this is truly our goal to detect the upper force, the one unique and unified of which there is None Else and He is working in all reality. He himself is the whole reality and we are only the created beings in the same reality in order to reveal and admit that there is truly None Else Besides Him.

This is hard to express in words, we took several steps towards this and today we will talk about how after we established a certain Kli, a vessel between us in the connection between as in the Arvut which we spoke about so much yesterday. That is spoken about in lesson number two, now we come to the source of this Arvut, what is it all for in order to reveal the Creator because by this we bring Him contentment. We reveal the Creator through actions that are congruent with His nature. We can see such a thing that he has a nature but this is how it is revealed to us so the way we build the vessel of Arvut incorporating into each other so each losing himself, becoming incorporated in the other and wants only to help others with whatever he has it does not matter like with everything he has he wants to support the ten his group his ten and in this way he comes to a state when he begins to discover that is None Else Besides Him, what is the upper force, who he is, his nature, his relation when the person begins to discover, by your actions we know you, that to the extent they perform acts of bestowal towards each other by this restart to discover the nature of the Creator and this way we come to know Him knowing the Creator, attaining Him, feeling Him, and being incorporated in Him that we are interdependent. This is all of our work.

Therefore, getting stronger in the None Else Besides Him means that we try each of us to let go of ourselves and develop all the qualities, desires, vessels that help us, these are the tools to help us to connect to the friends. Precisely in the qualities where I can get a grip to the friends, to cling to them, to be absorbed in them, to be dissolved in them. In these qualities I come to a state where I begin to know the nature of the Creator who is there is None Else Besides Him so that out of the actions, the effort we begin to acquire and why? It is not like it comes as a result of this but we can influence through our efforts His nature His light and this way we come to know Him.

Let's read the writings which we have selected. We have ten excerpts which are very special and very powerful. They are full and out of them we will know what to do with this concept there is None Else Besides Him. How the Creator prepared for us this system by which to know what is according to our nature in feelings that pertains to the created beings. It is impossible to discover the Creator but we do attain him, so let's begin and let's hope that with the help of the questions and scrutinies we will come to it. Yesterday we did beautiful work on the concept of Arvut, mutual responsibility. It is not that we finished it but we still came to a state where this concept became more familiar, closer, more complicated, more complex. We understood that this was the main thing so next to the giving of the Torah there is the article of the Arvut, meaning what? That there cannot be giving of the Torah the recognition revelation of the Creator unless we received the method of Arvut, because only by this we can discover the Creator. Let's wake up to there is None Else Besides Him.

Excerpt 1 (06:40 - 08:17)

2. R. We know this excerpt well we read it many times, we heard it many times, but still, what does the earlier teacher want to emphasize here that as much as we try to constantly be aiming to detect the Creator in every moment of our lives, the one who stands behind the walls. That the Creator is arranging everything that the upper light is in complete rest and only the vessels change all the time and actually events from the shattering to the revelation of the Creator. Therefore, we have to assist this whole process and not only to assist but we have to lead it so we do not progress through the path of suffering which is the natural way but by interfering with creation pulling creation to reveal the Creator by wanting to see that there is None Else Besides Him and accepting it in advance even though it is hidden and not revealed. And we have many doubts and problems here. This is called working on revealing that Creator He is not revealed, but we want to detect Him, we want to picture Him, to accept Him even though He is still concealed. In this way we hasted the time the time of development we accelerate it, and this way the Creator becomes what we do want to discover in order to bestow above our feelings even though the Creator is hidden and it does not matter to us that He is hidden as we want to discover only our relation to Him how much the Creator enjoys our efforts. With this relation we discover that there is None Else Besides Him, let's read it again.

Excerpt 1 (11:18 - 12:50)

3. S. What is this iron partition?

R. This is our selfish ego, our nature that stands between us and the Creator. It is this wall that is blocking us, closing us in all of our selfish sensors so we cannot reveal the Creator feel Him close to feel that this partition stands within ourselves. We say that it is outside of us between us and the Creator but basically, we feel that this petition is within us where my selfish ego is. That’s where it stands and behind it there is the Creator and I have to break this partition, I have to rise above it performing actions that make it not separating me from the Creator, this is our work. We feel this very tangibly. We have to work on it to detect this partition and as it says from the moment we get up in the morning and onwards we constantly try to cancel this partition. In this way we will feel how the Creator has prepared this partition for us and we have to constantly work on cancelling it.

4. S. (14:55) How can we preserve this discernment that there is None Else Besides Him when in reality we have to lose this state?

R. We do not lose this partition. This partition becomes the Masach, the screen except that instead of a screen that hides it is a screen that will reveal but it still remains as a partition except that now it does not separate but it connects us with the Creator. Do not think that we can already understand the functioning of the partition which becomes the screen, it is not simply, it comes to a state where our efforts join this partition and all of our desires and all the upper light that works on it and then we receive 620 times greater adhesion with the Creator than before. The Creator created us in adhesion to Him in the initial point and after the breaking we reveal our adhesion to Him 620 times more. This is called my sons defeated me. When the Creator seemingly pushes us away from Him and we do approach Him and become adhered to Him 620 times stronger we can't really name and number it is much more than 620.

5. S. (17:01) As Baal HaSulam writes it is a medical formula, but I do not understand how it works. How can I be 24 hours holding the Creator in my heart? How can I cause other thoughts to disappear when I want to think about Him?

R. First of all the other thoughts don't have to disappear we just have to position the Creator as the source of all the desires and thoughts and then it will not be difficult it will be actually easy for you because now you are a beginning to establish the place the source of all the thoughts desires drives as a single source and this governs you have to detect it and begin to know it. It will actually be clear to you, why you think this way, why you do feel this way and so on. Revealing the Creator is a great pleasure because everything in life becomes clear to you in life in nature in everything. It's above time and space and operations.

6. S. (18:42) If my deficiency is not being able to pray to the Creator, how can I demand from Him?

R. You have to try. I cannot get into all your internal states and how you think, but you have to try in the and try to understand that if you're not asking the Creator for a change for the better, He will give you changes for the worse. He will do that to you all these changes for the worse and by what does He do it? If you're not asking Him to progress, He will treat you a little differently, a little opposite so you would feel that you do need to progress and then you'll have to turn to Him. So, without waiting for the Creator to play this trick to you when he turns away and hides Himself from you, you take a step forward; this is our work. When we hear what the sages write to us in this way, we progress without realizing every step of the way there is None Else Besides Him we have no choice we have to but instead we can walk and progress like good children who are listening to their parents and do everything nicely and smoothly.

7. S. (20:40) He says in this writing that from the beginning we have to believe that there is no partition, so can you explain this that there is no partition?

R. The person who works correctly to discover the Creator begins to see that the concealment how much they consume, meaning it is for his own benefit for his sake that he has to go against the concealment but not to break it, not to abolish it, but to turn the concealment into Aviut, into coarseness so on top of the concealment he reveals the Creator. We also see this in technology in our whole life. What it means is that love covers all crimes. We need these opposite things because on top of the opposite things we can discover phenomena, different things, qualities, operations that are correct and real but we cannot reveal something unless from its opposite, this is how it works. Because we are created beings as it can only be through the difference between darkness and light only then can we reveal things therefore the whole search is only between the two opposite and we do not have to be afraid of the dark only to add to it light the opposite which is the form of bestowal and then between the two we can begin to discover that there is None Else Besides Him. Between the two opposite is the Creator.

S. (22:46) And then this concealment is going, how to turn it into coarseness?

R. Out of the two opposite you begin to discover the operation of the Creator I cannot describe it, maybe with words but there is none as wise as the experienced, make an effort and you will see.

8. S. (23:17) It says that one should pray from the bottom of his heart or something that is above his nature, what is the bottom of his heart and how can we ask above our nature something we do not know about, how can we ask about what is above our nature?

R. This is correct. By the person constantly trying to find ways to the Creator he comes to such states where he really does not know where to find this. How can he discover how he can approach how we can feel the Creator? This is all obtained through the prayer when the person asks for contact with the Creator to approach Him, to understand Him, constantly to Him of course he focuses himself through the friends in the group and then it's turns out that in the end the person begins to see that the Creator is revealed only in the in the gap between the desirable and the existing, between the darkness and the light. When there are these great transitions, opposite transitions between these two examinations opposite and then the person starts to attain the concept of the Creator because the Creator is called come and see the concept of the Creator consists of two contradicting opposite qualities, come and see. We know Him from the darkness in the opposite way and the darkness that explains and reveals to us the opposite form.

9. S. (25:27) You said that these great transitions when we discover light out of darkness, how can we support each other in these states?

R. Of course we work against the Creator at least for now we are not in favor of the Creator because we are made of the opposite material so we have to try put restriction on ourselves as much as possible where we do not use our nature and as much as our nature is opposite to the Creator, we can do something out of our nature that is something similar to the Creator. This is how we start to build our soul which is fundamentally a desire to receive which is selfish but we put a restriction on this desire and then we process this desire so it becomes it begins to work in order to bestow and these forces in order to bestow it wants to discover in us above the desire to receive this is building a seemingly out of the Klipot, the shells. Meaning out of that we build the Creator that, you have made me, this is our work.

S. (27:09) This first action from which we start, which is the restriction we also learn that we are not capable of restricting ourselves, our selfish desire so we need the Creator's help?

R. It is correct in every step of the way we need the Creator this is obvious. This is what we need about even though we need Him and we received Him in everything, fundamentally we remain created beings. The desire to receive is our fundamental inherent nature and there is nothing we can do about it. Everything we do in resembling the Creator is the corrections on our desire to receive and in these corrections we make by that we make ourselves similar to the Creator this is why we are called Adam from the word Domeh, similar, similar to the Creator because internally we are opposite to Him in our will to receive but our corrected expression is in the desire to bestow as if we could give as if we were are like the Creator, but these are only external superficial corrections on our desire to receive.

10. S. (28:39) How does one pour his heart to the Creator to keep Him through the 24-hours a day, how to make this prayer, how can we do that without praying for ourselves because we need to pray to the Creator for the others?

R. I don't know how to tell you this, all you need is to try to get the light that reforms from above and it does in us all kinds of shapes all kinds of changes until we take this form that resembles the Creator for the time being and then we feel that we reached a kind of adhesion on the quality of the desire to receive that has been revealed in us and the qualities of the will to bestow that dress on to the will to receive. And then according to this external form we start resembling the Creator for the time being, this is how it works.

11. S. (30:35) Is there a middle point between the darkness and the light?

R. The middle point between darkness and light? Well, you are correct that there is something there but we cannot yet detect it because it is the beginning of the screen, the beginning of the screen. When we come closer as we fall, we acquire a desire to receive and we start working on the restriction, screen, reflected light so from the restriction on we start the stages of corrections beforehand the corruptions appear and then the correction.

12. S. (31:44) Is this the Masach that the earlier teacher describes in this text?

R. Our whole collection is a screen, is a Masach as we perform the restriction on the desire to receive in order to receive and then we invert this desire to receive to become in order to bestow.

13. S. (32:23) When we try to give contentment to the Creator and not ourselves, we feel this partition, the question is the more we get closer to break this partition the more then we feel this?

R. Yes, this partition becomes for us something we cannot stand and yes, we want to break this partition but breaking through is not with our force, it’s through the connection. Here we have to change our approach to spirituality. As spirituality is attained, acquired only by the connection between us because this is the vessel of broken Adam, we have to correct it. We do not have to be strong each of us but we have to be strong in our connection.

S. (33:41) Do we have to come to a state where this partition is intolerable?

R. Yes. I would like to say to the group that have connected in a yard not far from here that group who have physical mirror congress, good luck to you.

14. S. (34:09) He writes that as soon as one gets up in the morning has to sanctify the moment with adhesion to the Creator. Can you give advice but to do that minute when we open our eyes what to say, what should he think?

R. You should first examine what you have in your mind in your heart but not more than determining, examining what he has and then the next is to start working on the connection. Maybe he has things that are completely opposite with maybe his head is full of smoke or fog doesn't matter what, maybe he is like a beast he has nothing more than there is no direction. Then he has to know about this and then start the efforts from there. I tell you the more you progress in the right direction to the goal you wake up in the morning every time in a more and more raw manner, more difficult manner, in a coarser manner. Rabash when we used to sleep in Tiberias he was, when he woke up, he did not understand anything he did not feel anything he was like sitting down e sitting on a chair. I used to give him some water to wash his hands so he washed his hands and eyes and we started studying and then he was truly disconnected from all spiritual reality it took him a few minutes until he started elevating his eyes and the eyes started shining it was really you could see that a man was born that truly Adam was born from the beast.

15. S. (36:52) When we accept the fact that this force is playing with us by this, we get the feeling that there is None Else Besides Him?

R. Yes, by this we get the feeling that the Creator is playing with us through us wanting to locate Him more and more and three at 10 that there is None Else Besides Him that in each moment He is the one concealed and He's playing tricks on us.

16. S. (37:10) Can you tell please, is it correct to say that the revelation of the Creator is when all the opposite in me is connected together and complement each other?

R. This is exactly right.

S. Do we understand that there is None Else Besides Him these opposites connect when we justify the friends and the qualities unite and we get the full picture in my personal vessel?

R. Not only that but to the extent I connect with my friends I built an infrastructure from all the qualities, all the tendencies that are opposite to me and my friends and I will be able to see the friends as complimenting each other and by this the concept of the Creator comes this root the only unique source of our unique thoughts, this is how it works?

Reading about partition from Rabash Article 85. (39:40)

17. R. (41:00) Yes and these efforts we have to make more and more even though we do not see if we are successful in them but every penny adds to a great amount and we reach state where, yes, all our efforts are breaking this partition and it becomes a screen and we may use it in order to discover the Creator.

Reading about light out of darkness Baal HaSulam article 34. (41:34)

18. R. (42:58) This is what we need to understand that until we come to each and every correction, we have to taste all the depth of what is not corrected, to hate it and by it we rise above and reach the corrected state.

19. S. (43:20) How does connection in the ten strengthen between us the determination that there is None Else Besides Him?

R. The ten can do everything, there is no limitation in the tens because the ten is the complete structure of all the system, that the Creator created. So do not think that in the ten you are limited in some way you are all unlimited but by you limiting yourself, you are limited the fact that you limit yourself it is true but the ten itself is not limited. I like to say hello and all the best to Czechoslovakia, they are also in a physical mirror congress, I am happy our friends are with us like this together.

20. S. (44:38) I feel that if we come to a connection in the 10s sit strengthens my sensation as an individual, as a separate entity, is this correct?

R. Of course one has to be against the other always the more you strengthen yourself in the ten, want to be in connection with them to have opposed to it the evil inclination to cope with the connection you reached. That's why the good inclination and evil information always grow one opposed to the other so the person has in between the point of free choice this is where it says anybody who is greater than his friend greater in connection his evil inclination is also greater. He has a greater desire to receive against it and it is always like a person is never content, how it is possible that I progress, I did something, I was good and I attained something, I understand more. Then I again fall, the question the situation is simple, it is an elevation but only on the left line and we have to be thankful to the Creator for having a greater desire to receive on which we can discover creation deeper and later in this depth we can draw the light that reforms we can correct it use this light as a flashlight, that we can take down to the basement and we can understand about the Creator prepared for us in the basement like in the example about the son of a king.

S. So the coarsest souls can reach the highest?

R. Yes, but what path they go through, the problem is that the higher souls the harder souls, they're very hard, tough souls they're very selfish they have very long way they have to invest their whole life and bit by bit they come to spiritual examinations many much later than other friends with a lighter more usual soul. You have to understand this is how it is but there is no choice here, we are not the boss here, each one has to take what he has and try no matter what I have I have to correct what I have; this is it. I do not determine anything about it.

21. S. (47:59) I cannot understand if in the real form the friends are complete and included in this wholeness and I am opposite, I shouldn't hate the wholeness, but then what do I pray for?

R. I pray only for one thing, that the Creator will correct the tens and as I ask, I am also incorporated in them and what they have I should also have but I really have to care about them, only them, this is my prayer for them.

22. S. (49:08) When we manage to attribute everything to the upper force, is this enough or we have to examine what He wants from us, what He wants to tell us?

R. This is only the beginning, the fact that you can tell yourself that there is None Else Besides Him that everything that happens to you is the Creator. What is next, so you determine this state correctly so what is next so you have to connect to your common deficiency to the Creator and connect to Him according to this deficiency, this is how you progress.

23. S. (50:11) In a situation when there are two opposites that are revealed that are coming from the Creator it is not after the situation?

R. It comes after.

24. S. (50:42) How can we wake up the beast to want to become human, to crave for love?

R. Only through envy, imagine to yourself a cow being jealous of human being, this jealousy that appears in the cow is enough for it to become a human being. Because according to the great force of this jealousy this great deficiency to become like a human, it is praying to the Creator and the Creator arranges these forces of development forces of evolution. This is how we evolved always from the degree of the animal to the degree of the human, all our broken states that are uncorrected on the degree which we call the animal. This is the meaning of the verse that the Lord will save man and beast, this is how we correct ourselves. If we won't let the reader read then he will fall asleep.

Excerpt 2 (52:13)

25. S. (54:16) What is the limitation, the first restriction that we are limiting ourselves in the ten that we try to connect to understand what you say or it isn't an internal concept?

R. I do not know how to translate this to you but the ten is simply the structure that can be six, seven, eight people that they have to nullify their ego and above that they connect and to the extent they nullify themselves and they connect they resemble the Creator because when they nullify the selfish ego to each other some they resemble the Creator and accordingly they can feel Him. Feeling the Creator is called light, upper light what is that it is the feeling of the Creator so this is how we come to reveal Him. As much as we can each of us to nullify the ego by connecting to friends and to be with them as much as and as tight as possible in the desire to give in a mutual way in a mutual goal to discover the Creator, general force of bestowal, accordingly they wake up the upper force to give to them to organize and finish the connection between them and somehow to certain extent in the degree they want to reach it. Then it turns out that they have to start the process but it is always the beginning of the degree that depends on humans, the end of the degree is done by the Creator, this is called the Creator will finish the work. This is that they feel that they have a special coming closer and in this coming closer they start to discover the force that unites them, this is the first which is revealed and this is the created the Creator is the same as sense they reveal in the connection between them.

26. S. (56:57) For some reason what happens is that it seems that the most advanced person in the ten forgets most often about None Else Besides Him.

R. The more advanced that person is the more he stumbles upon greater disturbances, greater obstacles, everybody who is greater than his friend, his evil inclination is also greater. Only upon these disturbances do we progress and they are coming more and more and they are greater and greater.

S. Is there a cause and consequence that the Creator brings certain friends the resistance and then they change?

R. We have to accept everything, that it is revealed this way and this is how we have to work all the philosophies here. I cannot start with them, you don’t yet know the picture until you start feeling the general network of connection between all of us, you want to understand that it will become clear.

27. S. (58:29) What should be the correct form for the friends to open their hearts so this can take the tens further?

R. We need to know that by us opening our hearts one to the other we open a place for the Creator to be revealed, this is all we are opening between is a place for the Creator to be revealed.

28. S. (59:12) How can we keep the Creator in the ten, in our minds at the same time?

R. Only through exercises and through experience.

29. S. (59:42) Then I go through a negative state, I see that it is difficult to say that this is coming from the Creator and I have a tendency to want to love the Creator so is there some border where it is up to me to make the decision?

R. There is none you are responsible for the whole world, you are responsible for everybody, you are Adam HaRishon and you are in charge there is nobody else. You are standing opposite to the Creator and between you and the Creator there is a broken vessel and you are responsible for the Creator to correct this vessel. The system is built in such a way that only if you ask the Creator to correct if you ask, He will work, He doesn't need to make an effort, He doesn't need anything, there's only one condition, everything depends on your prayer. This is it, so this is how you need to see the situation, therefore be very careful not to waste a single moment in your life but only be in a request for the Creator to correct the world.

30. S. (01:01:42) Why when I have a desire to attach to the 10 and to become a guarantor, all kinds of problems start and I feel a strong rejection and it feels that the Creator doesn't want me on the way?

R. Only in order for you to see it is only for you to see to have forces that are directed towards correction and connection so everything would look like an obstacle but you have to jump above this wall, above the disturbances. You have to jump above them to reach the correction. Of course, this has to be this way, we are going through a battle, this is a war. This is written, this war is called the war of the Lord, the war with the Creator and if we look at it correctly, we are fighting against the Creator, opposite to Him. Because He did all of these disturbances on the way in order for us to want to turn to Him and persuade Him to help us and so we would feel how much we have to bow before Him so He would do the work and to demand, to obligate Him like a child jumping at His father saying do this do that and does not let go, this is what the Creator wants us to do.

S. (01:03:55) The state the Creator gives us sometimes we do not get a clear answer and many times a lot of strong states go through and we do not get answers, it causes us to feel suffering and it is very difficult, I don't really get answers.

R. Because we are not giving the prior Z like the little child who constantly wants and tries and demands and he does not let his father rest or his mother, he doesn't let them rest, he wants them to help him. This is how we have to turn to the Creator, do not stop with your prayers, your request, all kinds of appeals, all of us together, this is helping most but at least as much as possible and this is a must it has to happen. We are truly at the opening to the upper spiritual world and we do not want to understand what the outcry is we have to have in order for them to open the gate for us. We have this together to demand this is it, nothing besides this nothing besides the request the prayer that demanding spirituality means that we are together and the Creator is revealed according to our intensity of togetherness this is all.

Excerpt 3 (01:06:10)

31. S. (01:08:49) Yesterday during the lesson we had a request to the world vessel and we have a depth that we haven't implemented yet today a friend came to a group by mistake, put a question mark and he disappeared. Is it a sign that we have to turn to the world vessel with your permission?

R. It is not for now if now, I am giving a certain writing and we read it twice and we prepared people for it you cannot come with your own thing. This is impossible to do this way it is a sign and I am giving an example that you are not in this study with us and secondly you want to turn everybody into your direction although this might be important but it is not entirely according to how we are aimed at the moment so wait and you will have an opportunity and I will give you at the end of the lesson, please remind.

32. S. (01:09:51) Faith in the Creator is it living inside Him?

R. Faith into the Creator is my internal force that I want that he truly that as it is that He would manage my whole life and I am giving Him in this all of my forces and I go along with Him with all my forces with my mind with my heart. I want to actualize His desire, I want that His desire which is the desire to give the desire to love, to desire, to nullify towards others that this desire would be working in me, this way I come to adhere to the Creator.

33. S. (01:10:58) You said before that we have to ask together. How to ask together when we have the iron wall between us?

R. You cannot climb above this partition unless each helps his friends it is impossible otherwise you have to realize that nobody can jump above the fence between us and the spiritual world unless we connect together only in this way it is possible to overcome this fence, this partition. We are in the generation of the Messiah in the last generation and the most important is the connection between us, it is not that we will be in a spiritual world but we have to carry out the connection and others will also be able to pass through. I am sure you saw in different movies how the ants climb over something so the first ants they make of themselves, this kind of connection, like a thread out of their bodies. Over these bodies the other small ants can climb over, this is how we have to do, this we together, with you are the pioneers, the first one's and we have to make it out of ourselves so others can pass over us through to the upper world. This is our work and this is truly holy work.

S. So how can we know that we are asking correctly that we are in this direction?

R. All the time try to examine yourself and what you are hearing through the verses which we are reading.

34. S. (01:13:26) What is the meaning that the light of his faith, it does not clothe into changing times and occasions?

R. The Creator is constant light the light of Ein Sof and this changes the times and occasions, everything we go through only in order to direct us to there is None Else Besides Him that is consistent. This is not so important for us right now, Baal HaSulam writes this in his writings in a way that is always inclusive: including the whole thing or together.

35. S. (01:11:33) We have an opportunity when we are attempting in the connection and the rejection between us?

R. Certainly by this we go from connection to rejection from rejection to connection these are the degrees of the changing states through which we locate the broken vessel and correct it and only through the prayer between us and the Creator so that the Creator with the correct everything and reveal to me the broken vessel, correct according to my qualities and prayer and so on each time it has to be this way.

36. S. (01:15:37) What does it mean to be devoted to the Creator in each and every moment?

R. It means that I never separate from the group and I see that the connection in the group and the wellbeing of the group depends on how much we are connected together and how much the Creator is inside of the group.

37. S. (01:16:19) It is written that a man who disregards the world, if he goes in faith above reason, he does not get tired.

R. If the person is constantly related to the Creator than he does not feel any fatigue but this is in an ideal form, in an ideal state of the person constantly overcomes, over himself more and more in each and every moment over all the little things. This is how the person reaches like mountain climber. He doesn't need to look up how much more he needs to climb because then he wouldn't be able to reach it, he just needs to see the next step and the next step he has to make only this way. Only in such a way can the person progress step by step and be successful and this is how it is in any great things we have to see before us not the entire way, sometimes yes, we need to see, but not the person who is performing the action the one who is performing the action must see before him a single step and this should be his whole life.

S. So what is the focus, here rising above reason giving the person to go without effort?

R. Constantly to demand from the Creator to have this force of being above reason the person does not have it but that person constantly asks for it.

S. And then the person has such a force?

R. Of course where did he get it from? Only from the Creator. Who is the person? The person cannot create anything by himself.

38. S. (01:18:53) So we have to give all present and future moments to the Creator but it does not speak about the past. Why is the past not mentioned?

R. What can I do with the past? I need to look at what I have right now and, in the future, how do I plan myself in relation to the present and the future in a way that it all comes from the Creator. I by myself arrange everything so I can describe everything to Him and not to anything else in spite of the group, the friends, the other side and the Klipot all to the Creator. Imagine to yourself that whatever happens to you in this whole reality in the world, all the problems or wars these are the viruses which are falling on us in all directions, this is all coming from a single force, from the Creator. You have to ascribe everything to Him so then you already have a very special attitude approach to the world, you are already having some contact with None Else Besides Him. Now how according to that you have to respond to everything that happens in the world if there is None Else Besides Him, only to imagine that He is good that does good. If He is good that does good, that are you praying for only to correct your own vision, that you want to see that it is truly so that the Creator is good who does good. The fact that He is good and that's good it is for certain that that you do not see it this way that you see the world in a terrible form instead of the world of Ein Sof, the Garden of Eden, this is your work, this is your correction.

39. S. (01:19:21:35) He is inviting us to connect and make efforts in the connection, are there other practical exercises that help us to make this connection together?

R. For this you have to turn not to me but to the world-wide Bnei Baruch group so they try to find such exercises from all our sources, manuscript of our teachers. However, I have nothing to add, this is all there before you and you already have to search according to what will you progress. You actually have received for the time being for your present state you have received all the lessons, all the tools, everything depends on you, on the connection between you, how much you realize this connection. Only through connection nobody should the base the future on his personal success, there is no such thing as much as each is incorporated, in the ten, then the ten progresses discovering the Creator because the person cannot discover the Creator, only the ten can discover the Creator. This is the ten Sefirot, the light is revealed in the ten and it doesn't matter how many people it can be 5, 15 or even 20 there is no problem with this the most important is that there would be more than two and then they can discover the Creator and this is what we have to do.

40. S. (01:23:52) Is a request to the ten the request to the Creator?

R. No, it isn't it is not the same thing, it is not the same thing, towards the ten is towards the ten and towards the Creator, it is towards the Creator, you have to prepare all kinds of things so you together start to turn to the Creator in the ten.

41. S. (01:24:46) Whoever thinks that there is another force preventing him, reaching the goal that he becomes an idol worshiper?

R. Yes, this is what it says.

42. S. (01:25:20) The time has come for a mutual prayer let's try to do this action like we did yesterday that it will be 2 minutes in silence and internal concentration and this will be our prayer: Creator, please correct my ten, I understand that is me asking and I am included in the friends and I also receive what they receive but I am only concerned about them, so Creator please correct my ten!

Excerpt 4. (01:26:49)

43. R. (01:28:10) But we need to relate to life nevertheless as the Creator who is standing behind every friend managing them and the person has to open up each and every friend and see how the Creator is standing behind each a friend behaving towards Him, the way I see the friends is how the Creator wants me to see them like this and by this the Creator teaches me that I could find a connection with Him through the friends.

Excerpt 5. (01:32:04)

44. R. (01:35:40) According to this what does the end of correction mean, the end of correction is that I received all kinds of changes in my life and I ascribe all of it to the Creator, bad or good things to me doesn't matter what kind they are even though it could be that I feel something very good or very bad but that I am happy that I can relate it to the Creator only. Especially the bad things that they also actually came from the Creator that there is None Else Besides Him. The end of correction says something about my vessels that I have finished correcting them and then I, even though the darkness and light are revealed in the most extreme way, I ascribe it to the good that does good. I say that there's None Else Besides Him and He is the good that does good. Then I have corrected my vessels, but these things could change and appear in all kinds of ways opposite and so on. Meaning we are speaking about the vessel, which is in adhesion, in connection and for that vessel specifically when the worst things are revealed, he is happy because now he can show how he is in even greater devotion and that is how he advances. What do I want to emphasize here, I really don't have words for this but the end of correction means that the end of correcting the vessel and not that the world stops or disappears and becomes some kind of something constant? Only man can determine that there is None Else Besides Him in every state.

45. S. (01:38:03) The question is how is it possible to understand the fact that the whole world is corrected and everything is the result of the Creator?

R. Repeat the question?

S. How is it possible to combine these two things? On one hand we see that world as corrected, on the other hand I see that I am the one who needs to correct myself and I go through these states that are so far away from the Creator, so lowly.

R. Everything is only towards you it's not that the world has to be corrected or not, the world has no form as there is no such thing in the world, the world is what you depict for yourself within your vessels, within your desires and your thoughts and how you can imagine the Creator is bestowing upon you. That's it. That is the world, meaning you are in a system where you understand as much as you are the extent of your equivalence or disparity of form from the Creator. That's it.

Excerpt 6 (01:40:00)

46. R. (01:41:19) That it doesn't matter whether through the left or the right, we are always going closer to the Creator without any, even stop, and not even speak about falling back. There is a pace as much as we’ve advanced, as much as we've received each and every state that brings us closer but actually it is just advancing in corrections.

47. S. (01:42:03) From the last two excerpts I get the impression that from the descents it is easier to come into contact with the Creator versus an ascent or a mutual state?

R. That's under the condition the Creator gives you an illumination and then you can rise from your fault, you are resurrected, but if He doesn't do it then you can remain in that descent more and more, for a longer time. Why is it still good to reach from a fall to a resurrection towards the Creator, because then you have a gap between the good and bad, between confusion and clarity, between those two extreme states, the polar states you understand where you are. You get more states to determine yourself.

S. How can I guarantee that I will have such illumination?

R. Only through this society, man will help his friends, you alone, no, if the group doesn't move you can't do anything. You remember what is written about Rabbi Yossi ben Kisma that he said without my students even though they are small I can't let them go otherwise I'll be in the state like I am now. But because they also understand the bit and are adhered a bit between them and I, I can be great, that I will use them I won't disconnect from them I won't be Rabbi Yossi ben Kisma anymore I will just be Yossi from the market.

S. If I have support from the friends in the ten how do I go through a descent?

R. If you are connected to the friends in such a way you connect to the friends that you don't separate and that you are constantly connected in the good and the bad and the bad in the good and even if your ten is really going against the waves of the sea that you are still advancing constantly towards the purpose of your life to reach the safe shore. It is a state that you have to try and get to and then the Creator will be with you, you will discover that this whole boat is the Creator Himself.

48. S. (01:45:06) We want to depict this as the end of correction right now in which we are in wholeness and connection, these states that he is describing are the ascents and descents should we accept them as there is None Else Besides Him is this faith above reason?

R. Yes actually, still I need to make efforts to see ourselves in faith above reason, what reason we have and what faith we have and how this is above that. Imagine to yourself two levels, reason and faith, reason is that the judge has only what his eyes see and faith is something in order to bestow. What you can bring in reason you can bring in faith because it is the upper world, it is the upper force, the light working there. Try to depict the states in such a way and discuss how you can constantly rise from reason to the degree of faith and then the faith will take a bigger place in your disturbances and then you keep rising from reason to faith above reason.

49. S. (01:46:49) How do we convince the rest of the world that what they're going through are not punishments but corrections through which we are approaching the Creator?

R. We need to tell each other about it, to read about it, to explain each one to ourselves until we see that there is nothing in the world but corrections. Each and every moment it is just corrections and that's why according to that we need to be happy that the Creator is in front of us showing us how He is correcting reality. He broke it and now He is fixing it and even though it seems to us that we are doing this also until we reach None Else Besides Him.

50. S. (01:47:53) The correction of the vessel is that, through greater incorporation of each one?

R. I wasn't in these states like we are now, what we are in now is still familiar and we still understand it but the states that will come where we will start connecting between ten and that is something those are stages that happen any time since the shattering of Adam HaRishon. These are the corrections of the last generation, that here at ten and they're at ten and they suddenly start connecting the tens and they begin to feel that they can be as one vessel and the Creator is revealed to them as one. Then that group begins being in an upper world, in control, not that they know it, maybe they never knew it before or didn't discern it. But this is how it has to be and I hope that soon we will reach a state that we can cause the correction of the world, practically.

51. S. (01:49:39) Many times throughout the day I used the sentence there is None Else Besides Him but, in my mind, repeat that and it says except for me, again it says there's None Else Besides Him and my brain seemingly continues this sentence and says for me how do I get out of this?

R. So you need to tell yourself that except for me it is called that you need to annul yourself, that truly you want to see the whole world as only the Shechina, only the appearance of the Creator and reality and it will work for you just a bit more effort and you will see, you are close.

Excerpt 7 (01:51:03) twice

52. R. (01:53:47) To constantly see and hold on to the force of None Else Besides Him is possible only if the friends help and if we make it an effort to end it between us and it turns out that we I'll help his friend and being a feeling that everything is under the control of the Creator and He is holding us and then in such a way we gradually reached the truth, that the Creator is dwelling in the whole world and that we are in Him. Let us think about it and have a five-minute workshop, how can we constantly think that we are in the Creator and that we are in Him together to the extent that we hold on to ourselves as a ten then the Creator is in us and we hold on to Him. We don't let Him escape from my mind and our heart, meaning as much as we want to be connected to one another the reason for our connection is that we want the Creator to dwell between us and we are constantly in such a way asking the Creator to be in the connection between us that we will be able to hold onto Him in the connection between us. Constantly, back and forth, back and forth, that there is no more than Israel, Torah and the Creator are one. Everybody speak how can we in the connection between us constantly hold the Creator, turn to the Creator to hold that connection between us and from the connection that the Creator is holding for us that we are turning to Him and asking that He remains in that connection and sells it that He will keep that connection between us and this is called that the Creator corrects the vessel and when he feels the best all this is called that He is being revealed in the complete vessel. So, it turns out the Creator corrects the vessel and fills the vessel but in both we're asking and raising a prayer to Him to perform this action and this is why by this we become as partners and in this way we can advance.
