Part 1:

Rabash. Article No. 3, 1991. What Is, “The Wicked Will Prepare and the Righteous Will Wear,” in the Work?

1. Rav’s Introduction: (01:20) “The wicked will prepare and the righteous will wear,” meaning we all begin as wicked, we don't know the laws of nature, the Creator, we don't recognize, we don't feel, we're not ready for it, and this is why we're called wicked. When we enter, learn, adhere, and are connected to the method to the articles of Rabash and Baal HaSulam, to our uniting more between us, more, and more, we, too, try but mostly it’s the upper light that is operating upon us and fills the space between us. We come to a state in which we are all connected together to one system, and this system is called Adam HaRishon. Whereas, we all together put together this system. Hence, the wicked will prepare as he works upon himself, attempts, and tries to adhere to the society, to connect with them, and work with them, and the righteous, in which he already becomes more, and more, by justifying the Creator justifies the actions and understands the world. Even though it would appear through these corporeal eyes that it's not okay, it's deteriorating, yet he justifies all of creation. This way he becomes more and more internal towards the world, and the righteous, as he becomes together with everyone, he becomes one body, and clothes upon himself the whole world. To the extent that he's capable of clothing the world upon himself, then he justifies it more and more, and justifies the Creator certainly, and therefore, the righteous will wear. As we become so adhered to one another that the entire world clothes upon us and we become as one. We will see, please.

Reading Article. (04:58) “The Zohar says..”

2. S. (42:18) I feel like it's some kind of concentrate that’s very powerful and getting a rash on my body. Rabash says and then he says what is the wicked will prepare and the righteous will wear in the work, and he says there's no righteous in the land that will do good and doesn't fail. First he has to come to the form of the sin, to the error and I have to ask myself, why do you have to come to a state where you sin first and only then He lands upon you correction?

R. This is the law of nature that the light excels from the darkness.

S. He says, of course a person is not disclosed enough or more evil inclination then when he can balance with the good inclination, why does a person have to discover that he's bad and only then a correction process begins?

R. He needs to know something, basically he has to reveal the Creator and in order to reveal the Creator he has to reveal something opposite from the Creator. In order to know something you have to know what's the opposite of it, that's even how we perceive in this world if I don't see black I don't see white.

S. Every person is bad or are there people that are less bad?

R. No, no, no, we are born not knowing the spiritual world, it's all in bestowal, it's all in giving, we don't have such qualities. In order to begin to recognize it we have to recognize the corresponding opposite qualities, that's why we grow with left and right, left and right that's how we correct ourselves and then we can understand two things.

S. When the Creator created man, He created all these bad qualities specifically, so that one would be bad and have something to correct?

R. The Creator created man with a preparation that he'll be able to get to know all of creation.

S. You know I'm smiling because there is such a thing that it is like a person does not even blame that he is so bad?

R. We're not talking about someone who is guilty, we're talking about nature, that we have to get to know nature and for that we have to know it as created beings from both sides, from the darkness and the light, the good and the bad.

S. How do you define bad, how can you say when a person is bad what does it mean that he's bad?

R. It's all relative; we have to accept the bad as the opposite of the Creator.

S. Give me an example of what is considered a bad person, that he is opposite the Creator, what are you telling me?

R. How the Creator created him.

S. A person with a desire to receive?

R. Yes.

3. S. (46:21) What is a descent?

R. A descent is a person who feels he's in a descent as opposed to a previous state.

S. He's describing it here again and again a descent as a state in which a person recognizes that he's in self-love and from that an appeal to the Creator emerges to correct him, it sounds like an ascent to me?

R. I don't know what you mean.

S. From what I understand from the article that a person invests forces and eventually he gets from these forces he is in recognition he is in self-love, a prayer emerges for the Creator to correct him and take him out of self-love?

R. Yes.

S. In this state there's an intermediary state where a person is defining that he is in self-love but there's nothing in between like he can turn to the Creator?

R. That's right, that happens too.

S. What is that state?

R. It’s a state.

S. Why does he not mention it here?

R. That a person will see that if he doesn't receive some discernments opposite himself, opposite his state, he won't be able to come out of it.

S. How is he supposed to receive these discernments against him?

R. The good against the bad.

S. He gets the discernments of good against bad, even the fact I'm standing here and asking if there's such a state, but there's no prayer. The person that recognizes that he's in self-love but it doesn't evoke a prayer in him, he doesn't feel bad in it?

R. Yes, what is it? The question is how to reach your prayer?

S. No, how from being conscious or aware that he is in self-love that is in him, how does he feel bad from that, he feels bad about this and he wants to emerge from this?

R. This is called how to reach a prayer.

S. Yes. Okay, so how?

R. How envy, lust, honor he has the means. If he looks at others he starts seeing why are others better than me? Probably you're not looking at others as you are not envious of others.

S. I'm envious.

R. If it doesn’t get you worked up, if you don’t get burned from envy, then.

S. He cannot stand those states, he wants to get away from those states.

R. This is the problem.

S. How do you solve it?

R. You prefer to be closed and quietly secluded and as long as you're better off.

S. Right exactly, so I'm asking how do we solve this problem, we have everything, we have great friends, we even have envy but how from the whole and all these things that I perceive?

R. You are afraid to get closer to the friends.

S. How do we get, overcome such a fear?

R. By connecting, connecting above the desire and then you begin to see that you don't have what they have, and despite that you're going forward even though it's unpleasant, you're going forward more and more, getting closer to them. To the point that you don't have a choice and you are entirely burned from envy.

S. What is that action of coming closer to them even though I'm burned from envy, if something's burning me I distance myself from and I can't tolerate it?

R. There's always a calculation to be made.

S. What do you mean when you say to come closer?

R. It’s all a calculation like when you go to work, you don’t want to go to work but you don’t have a choice, so you go.

S. I didn't understand the connection, I’m rewarded with something there?

R. You get a reward here, too, when you get closer to the friends you have to make that calculation of what you gain.

S. I understand, I am saying upon that envy is a feeling that a person is burnt, he doesn’t want to come close. You are saying if you feel like you are burning, come closer. What is this ‘come closer’, what am I supposed to do with this advice of you telling me to come closer?

R. That you are ultimately going to be gained by that.

4. S. (52:09) How do you invert the bad deeds to holiness to Kedusha?

R. We can't do it, these changes always happen from above always. The Creator is doing this inversion within us but we have to be stubborn on the path and keep going. That's it, keep going another year, another year and more actions, more efforts because there's no choice, life is life, that's what it is, you can't run away from it, you can't run away from your life, run away from all your life cycles. You ultimately surrender, if the point in the heart is very important, very great and it shines, then the person is drawn by the power of the point in the heart but if he doesn't have that much of a draw from the point in the heart then still from being sent to this calculation of what else will he do, what will I get out of life, everything passes and goes away, all kinds of calculations that are half corporeal, half spiritual.

5. S. (54:08) Rav there's an explanation Rabash is describing, as a person's describing, is bad there's also another kind of, for a whole day he couldn't be connected with the Ten you have some other problem at work and problem at life. How do you relate to such a descent, is there such a form of descent that you can turn to the Creator?

R. There are many reasons that this is what needs to happen to a person, so it makes some more specific, more accurate calculations about his life. I can't say, there's many reasons why we're being disconnected.

S. In the end it's also worthwhile to ask for help?

R. That's clear, yes that's always the case. I see the article didn't really leave an imprint.

6. S. (55:10) He describes three stages here. Can you explain maybe what the second stage is where the person receives from the Creator the force of bestowal? But still, nevertheless sins. I didn't understand what those stages were.

R. One needs to study the sins that the Creator did in this process that we're going through. We have to learn all the preparations on the Creator’s side, what's inside creation. Therefore, we go through these states.

S. But if a person received the force of bestowal?

R. To an extent he received the force of bestowal between reception and bestowal to some small extent and now he has to keep going and going.

S. What does it mean that a person receives some force of bestowal?

R. It means that he begins to somewhat appreciate some of the force of bestowal that awakens in him and he begins to be drawn towards bestowal. He has some disconnect from the force of reception that appears in him in any case.

S. Meaning that ability to exit the desire to receive and start thinking about the friends, maybe start caring for them?

R. Yes.

S. That's called he received a little bit of force of bestowal?

R. Yes.

S. Every action a person does he gets a little force of bestowal?

R. No, not every action because there's also envy, lust and honor here and all kinds of other, well no, it's not always the case. It's not enough for him to be in bestowal in order to appreciate bestowal. He might be ashamed or because of envy, so he does all kinds of actions, people come here for, in the beginning they're willing to work and do all kinds of things and help and why? Because they have a force of bestowal? No, but because they want to get closer to the society, they want to show themselves as important.

S. There's also the matter here where he says that a person makes contemplations where he calculates, what does that mean? What changes in reality and thinking about the Creator, feeling that I'm close to Him, maybe even praying for Him, what changes in reality the moment I do that thing?

R. You are drawn by that, you activate some forces, you activate some forces and that's it, that's how you continue to collect the components on the path.

S. We always learn that the desire proceeds the thought, so what does it mean, where he is calculating? What does it mean that he will influence the Creator in an opposite way?

R. Possibly, I don't want to give you a solution. You'll find it yourself.

7. S. (59:41) What is spiritual envy?

R. Spiritual envy, there are two stages. The first stage is that I envy others because they are more advanced in bestowal than me. The second stage is that they are more capable of helping others.

S. When I hear the friends talking about bestowal and spirituality, many states, it is actually repulsive because I don't feel it.

R. That will come later and it will become corrected.

8. S. (01:00:28) When one receives a feeling that everything is for his benefit and then receives a deficiency that the bad will clothe in me, that will not harm the friends besides a request for help? What is important for it to work out here automatically, some over here, so he also has the recognition of evil? Also, immediately the lack that he won't harm will appear. What has to happen here internally?

R. The order needs to be that they will become corrected against this; he must now search for the forces of correction.

S. He has to search for the forces of correction against all those calculations for himself or does he have to enter into the principles of the work and see what he was told about the above reason and to say, and now I need to operate this way and now I need to operate another way?

R. It's best if he enters into a stronger connection with the friends and there you will see a solution, then the Creator will get into the calculation and help him reach the understanding of the correction.

S. He has to kind of announce to the friends that he is actually exploiting them badly, and he needs their help to truly not harm them?

R. The fact that we each need help from each other is no shame. It's good, actually it's good, when I reveal to others that I need their help, this is good. I don't hide it. What do I have to hide?

S. Upon every action we do now in the ten there is great importance for them to complete it with prayer or is it an internal matter with each and everyone?

R. We have to navigate ourselves in such a way, or modulate ourselves so that just like the article is divided into chapters or to segments, we also divide our attitude to the group and the Creator into segments. We pray for each and every segment.

9. S. (01:03:48) There's this feeling that life is divided into two kinds of times. There is a time where we're interacting with the friends and the lesson and gathering of friends or convention, and you are filled with calculations: I'm good, I'm bad, the Creator, the purpose of life, and all the work along the way as far as the connection between us there is connection there is a connection, there's love of friends etc.. There's a time, there's a lot of times during the day where you do a cut and you go to some other movie some other flick and other friends and this extreme situation is, and even this relationship between two states you want to run from one state to the other but my question is: When will it connect to one? And what we learn here will be us and not be like some kind of like, a split personality thing, where there are two worlds that are not connected to one another whatsoever?

R. When you imagine the Creator as governing all the worlds, all and of the occurrences and situations that you are going through then everything connects to one.

S. Is there anything even that thing where you're in the environment talking to friends about symbolic actions you're in some kind of reality that you were thinking other thoughts. You are at work, you are with your family, you are in that corporeal part of your life. What I'm thinking, how much I'm giving to him more or less?

R. Behind all of those things there is a spiritual calculation.

S. How does that fit? It's supposed to be all one but I don't see many years?

R. Your attitude, it's not a matter of money or power or physical power, it's a matter of your attitude to what you are doing, how you enter various calculations towards the others, it's all different forms of relationships, try. Try to shift all of your life to a calculation between you and other people and groups of people and ultimately the Creator.

10. S. (01:07:05) A person is like a confused child all the time, he doesn't really know where he's going if he thinks or feels that he is doing with good deeds he is showing how distanced he is and according to what is written, if he feels himself in self-love and bad deeds then it is actually a preparation for clothings of good deeds, it's like there's that feeling of a person and that truth of the objective, that the truth is always opposite of what he feels?

R. If you want to develop correctly, you have to hold your dad by the hand, if you are a little child.

S. My question is about that objective state where you feel like you are the opposite of that desired state. You have to make an effort to put into your feelings?

R. I don't know, I told you you can't put it into your emotions this way, that way you have to try to hold your spiritual father by the hand.

S. Okay and if I don't succeed there is this contemplating in the first ones?

R. Then you're looking for that hand.

11. S. (01:08:21) What is to hold on to the hand of the father, how do you find the hand of the spiritual father?

R. When you wish to be somewhat related to bestowal as He is.

S. It says you have to be cautious during the descent and who gave you the descent and that's how you come into contact with the Creator, relative to the state where he's adhered to the person who's going down and doesn't consider it. How can you not think about how the descent is happening but from Whom the descent is coming?

R. It all depends on the environment and the order of the study, the lessons. Meaning how you set up your corporeal life, let's say in terms of the times and then there's no problem, you come back even if you fall from the feeling of being in the spiritual process, the spiritual educational process, you still come back to it based on the clock.

12. S. (01:09:47) Almost in every article, Rabash comes to this caution of a person that comes to escaping the campaign, what is that state?

R. This is something you always should be afraid of.

S. Do we have to come to that danger of the fear that it might be thrown away?

R. That it might be thrown away from the campaign.

S. Is that a permanent sensation a person should have?

R. Somehow somewhere in the background it should be, because he sees there were people who were with him and they disappeared and they continue their life in a corporeal way and finish it as a beast.

S. You said that the article may not have made a big impact on us, how should we express correctly from Rabash’s articles?

R. No, it's just a deeper article than what we can now open from it.

S. You said we have to turn ourselves in such a way that we, too, just like the article are divided into parts and we have to think about the group and also in the Creator and we pray for each excerpt, what is the meaning?

R. Well, we can't discuss these things in general, but it's like how our life is organized with each and everything, there is me and the family and work and the group and so forth, that's how I also look at my life. That's how it is.

13. S. (01:11:44) We see that he writes that a person comes to a state of contemplating the first, is that the state where he is thrown completely or he gets some kind of push along the way because he has discovered he is evil and that he has room for prayer, how will we protect it here and to do the work?

R. I didn't understand.

S. We see a person comes to a state of contemplating the first ones, how to come to a state where he is not thrown from the path, from a place where he is demanding from the Creator?

R. This all depends on the environment, to what extent a person holds on to it in the study and everything, the friends, everything we have from this side of Kedusha.

S. But it's come to a state where I'm contemplating these things?

R. If you completely disconnect from everything then everything depends on the upper force, just like He did to you the first time he might do it again.

S. Rabash writes towards the end of the article that he has to take upon himself the fear of the burden of Heaven?

R. Then he has something already he has something left, so he has to bring all of these things together, he has to set times for the Torah, he has to take a certain group and teach it if he is capable of that and so forth. Tie himself with as many ropes as possible to the process.

S. The question is that he gives two states here, one that you always have to praise the upper one and the possibility to pray and come closer to Him and you also have that possibility of being in fear to come to the prayer. What's more correct or is there no right or wrong here?

R. No, there's neither this or that here; it depends on what state he's in.

S. How's the difference between bestowal and prayer, how to use them?

R. How to use fear for prayer? If he's in that state already, that's a good state and he should use it. You're asking about a few states here that are not adjacent to each other.

S. That's what it feels like in the article that Rabash is leading us through all this process, it's a matter of time, it's a matter of processes that are happening inside of you. So I'm trying to understand how we can implement the words of Rabash? How to know that I do need to not be a wicked eventually, but I have to be a righteous?

R. I don't understand you.

14. S. (01:14:59) Throughout the article he gives this example that you are doing acts of bestowal, and against it you are always being disclosed how opposite you are to that, how wicked you are?

R. Yes.

S. What's the purpose of revealing to a person the oppositeness of what he wants to be?

R. In order to show him the other side.

S. Yes, but what is the correct use of the other side here?

R. That he still has what to correct, because the main thing we learned from the discovery of our mistakes.

S. If you're being shown the other side, what is it, is it a Kli, what is that thing?

R. It's like what you missed out on in school, you have to work on correcting your error, what do you call it here, you mean you don't have it. Let's say the teacher is saying something to you, he is dictating something and you have to write it down and then they check it, how many errors you have in your writing, what is it called, dictation? Okay, so in short, that’s dictation. You have to do the same thing here.

S. Okay, so you're given a task you're to go and bestow, then you're told about all your problems. You're being told that everything is misspelled, and you are shown how many mistakes you have, what now?

R. Now you have to correct it.

S. What happens now?

R. To correct the errors is when the teacher is now telling you how to spell each word correctly and you correct it in your notebook and then time after time, you finally remember how to write it correctly, that's how it was with us. That was six years ago, I'm sorry.

S. In the allegory with the school I understand, but in our spiritual work, what does it mean to correct the mistakes that you're being shown?

R. You see that you wrote it in order to receive and here they let you know what it means to write it in order to bestow, and then in this way you know what is good and what is bad.

S. In order to bestow is not something that depends on you changing of your intention from in order to receive in order to bestow, it's not something you have a grip on?

R. You're not holding on to in order to bestow but you know what you've done in order to receive and how to do it and the opposite way, you're only missing here love of friends, connection and bestowal.

S. When the Creator reveals mistakes to a person, what does he want a person to learn from this, what is the expectation of the person?

R. His expectation is that through the errors that He is revealing to each and everyone, that the person is missing one thing; to be closer to the Creator.

S. Where does the love of friends come into this inclusion where he lacks?

R. He doesn't know how to approach the Creator, who is the Creator, what does it mean to be close to the Creator? This he can learn only from coming closer to the friends.

S. That's clear from the last question. Your ability to develop your closeness to the friends, how do you develop that from one day to the next?

R. Because each passing day I discover how distanced I am from the Creator.

S. I need to change that precisely, so that it will pain you and will change you, closeness to the friends, so that they will become closer?

R. I can't approach the friends and I can't come closer to them and to the Creator if I don't come closer to the friends, that's a necessary condition.

S. I understand but I don't understand how to come closer to the friends more than what it currently is at this moment?

R. You need to think about it more and more, if I want to get closer to the Creator, then the condition before me is to come closer to the friends.

15. S. (01:21:14) If the goal is to come closer to the Creator, that's our reward, why are we afraid?

R. Our reward is not to simply become closer to Him but to bestow contentment to Him, it doesn't matter.

S. Why is that fear to come closer to the friends?

R. The fear of getting closer to the friends because it can harm me, my ego, my personality. That's why I'm being careful not to get too close to the friends, only in the condition that I'm not afraid of any personal harm between hurt, I can approach the friends.

S. Mitzva brings a Mitzva, does that come from the friends?

R. That works between the friends and then from me to the Creator but again you have to work on it.

S. It says that on one hand a Mitzva brings a Mitzva but on the other hand a person is thrown out of this work?

R. A person that's thrown out of this work again and again and reaches higher and higher places.

16. S. (01:23:00) How should I cause balance between good and bad all the time, even though it doesn't come from me, it comes from the Creator, but how do I make it for myself so that on the path there's always a balance?

R. We can never be balanced, in balance but we can be in good and in bad, bad and then good good and then bad; that's how it works.

S. What do I make of myself on the path in exertion as we see here, that as much as I reveal more and more of the deviations of the bad, then I can always bring my path more and more to corrections. How can I always make this balance through the revelation of the bad?

R. You don't need to reveal the evil, you only need to be drawn to the good and to the extent that you merit connecting to the good, there will also be revealed to you the evil the bad. As one who merits doesn't mean that you are approaching the good, rather to approach the good you need to approach the bad along the way, the bad along the way, and then it will be revealed to you.

S. I am asking this because many times I feel good working with the friends and we might call that an ascent but I don't feel good at that state because I feel as if I am requesting less from the Creator?

R. You're blocked.

S. Exactly so then I say wait, I want the Creator to give me the opposite state, so that I can request Him to come closer?

R. No, that's incorrect, you shouldn't ask for descents, you should ask for ascents only and the Creator will arrange the descents for you. You will always rise in sanctity and you will not bring someone down in sanctity, it's not worthwhile for you to do it if you want to advance, go ahead. Help the society, try to serve them, to enter among them and try to be as much as possible try to provide what they need for their ascents.

S. Let the Creator do His work in short?

R. Yes.

17. S. (01:25:38) You said to the friend that only if I am unafraid of this self of being hurt that I can come closer to the friend?

R. Well, that's how our will to receive protects us. Let's say I'm afraid of a friend, then I'm holding myself at a certain distance so that he will not be able to hurt me.

S. To change me?

R. What do you mean?

S. That he will not change me, is that the fear?

R. To hurt me, I don't know what it means to change.

S. My question is: How do we attain that state so we are not afraid, through what?

R. To not be afraid of someone that's on the path to correction.

S. From the friends, how can I attain the state where I'm not afraid to come closer to the friend?

R. Start relating to them in a good way, start seeing that they are also replying in kind and connecting in a good relationship and then there will be no problems.

S. It depends on me or the environment, the atmosphere the friends create?

R. It depends on you.

18. S. (01:27:05) The person can feel himself as righteous, that is very obligating?

R. I can't hear what you are saying.

S. The person is not ready to feel himself as righteous because it is very obligating and even more so he is not ready to feel himself as a wicked because that also obligates him even more. More is somewhere in the middle so that the prayer is also half a prayer, you pray, on the other hand that you want to hold your fingers tight in order so that it won't happen?

R. He wants to live in such a way that he will feel neither good nor bad because from all these things that are too good and things that are too bad. You fall and you incur all kinds of commitments and he prefers not to, he prefers a quiet life.

S. How can we come out of that?

R. You need to connect with a few friends who are not afraid to go forward and to be together with them and then he feels certain that they are moving in the right direction. He needs to shut his eyes and follow them, meaning do what they want without any criticism.

S. Meaning to choose in the ten a few friends to conclude that we are making a certain covenant?

R. Yes.

19. S. (01:29:22) I wanted to ask a fundamental question in relation to this article, the person goes to the artist in order to acquire some profession and he encounters his beast, his animal nature. All artists performs all kinds of corrections, he fixes him, the person, he's always crying, he's never happy about that. I don't understand what you can say if the prayer is upon the person and he goes to land this profession and the person considers it, he turns to his father, to turn to the artist and maybe to the teacher, that he will pay him some more etc.. I don't understand how a person, that his main thing is he submits to his beast, to his animal nature. How can we be aimed at the goal and not give into our nature in such a way?

R. You have to be in connection with others, alone against your beast, you can’t face it, you are on your own, that's how it's organized from the get-go.

20. S. (01:30:57) The period now according to what Rabash says is the best period possible. We hear all kinds of complaints. He writes here, and then we will see that all the punishments that were during the time of the descent, until they come to ponder the beginning of purifying us and how they've been turned into merits?

R. Yes.

S. This is why those who speak those words are regarded as those who feel the Lord and receive his name, meaning it's the best period possible that we feel bad?

R. It's a good example because both the good things and the bad things and especially the bad things that have passed over you, you see that they all worked towards the good.

S. Right, so the thing is how can these things just topple over like that?

R. It depends on your attitude, it's like a little child that understands that things were done for his sake.

S. Yes but what is happening with these vessels of ours, how can it be happening that this bad we feel flips over into a good thing and it's wonderful?

R. Because by that he changed the child, he became wiser.

S. What happened here on the way? All of our sins and transgressions and everything we go through invert into good, what happened?

R. He who does not spank his kid, hates him.

S. Yes but what happened?

R. It either works negatively or positively on the child, that is the difference.

S. Is there such a thing as gathering tough things in our daily lives and then it comes to this threshold and then it all inverts into a good thing?

R. Along the way we can already see how it converted to good, but in the end, of course.

S. On the path you can't feel anything good, right?

R. Here and there you can feel.

S. When do you feel good on the path?

R. I'll tell you later.

S. There’s many good things on the path?

R. Yes, let's keep going.

21. S. (01:34:05) This example with the teacher who punishes, he sees a deficiency of his students and the father is not happy with it and he goes and turns to it and he asks him not to punish him. It turns out that the Creator progresses us through these punishments but where is the connection with this Creator here? Since in the tale there is a certain connection between the teacher and the parent and the student and with us it's concealed. You simply get some blow and that's it, there is no connection with the teacher. How do we build that connection?

R. How can the student build the connection with the Creator, very simple. With the group and inside the group to imagine the Creator and portray Him. Through the group he wants to connect with the Creator through it, there is a closed system before you and you can use it. You can advance all the way until the end of correction and that's how it's happening.

22. S. (01:35:36) How to help the friends that they will be fit to be rewarded and accept this special treatment to do the work of the holy work?

R. I don't understand what he said.

S. How to help the friends that they will be fit to be rewarded and to be able to accept let's say this special treatment from the Creator?

R. Give him an example, how you are sensitive to receiving from the Creator through the society all kinds of signs that this is truly pulling you forward.

S. Do you need a lot of strength to be able to perform, let's say, to be in a special treatment, what gives you the strength to be able to work in this so-called special treatment period?

R. Example, set by the society, a person cannot do it alone, a few friends have to be next to him to reinforce him, to back him.

23. S. (01:37:43) What do I lack which the friend has?

R. Connecting with friends, whatever I acquire, what I actually acquire is confidence, security confidence. That's the only thing.

S. What does it mean that fear needs to be on one hand out of love and on the other hand we need to be afraid of myself?

R. I have to be in the middle, between the fear of blows and the fear of love. Let's put it this way, where both of these are holding me, and then it can be correctly aimed at the goal. Do not be afraid of deviating left or right.

24. S. (01:39:06) Recently I have been getting a lot of strength from the examples from friends, especially in my group, but I feel a descent and I feel powerless in disseminating, so what am I doing I feel like I'm not carrying out my role. What do you recommend?

R. I'm not sure what to propose to you, I feel like you have a group, I don't know. Are you connected with the friends with the group, are you disseminating, do you have an opportunity to use several languages? I don't understand what is preventing you from advancing.

S. I don't know why but I feel that I am not suitable, so how can I overcome this?

R. You feel like you are not suitable, I don't know what kind of group you have. I don't know the spirit of the group, how much you are together with them and you're holding one another and all of that, I don't know, I can't tell. Enter and force yourself in between the friends, try to connect them, try to see what can be done. This is essential.

25. S. (01:41:18) Today in the preparation of the lesson, I felt that everything I have in spirituality, my point in the heart, faith is awakening from above in short, everything is kind of a game that the will to receive convinced me to live in that sort of way. How can I win this battle of the will to receive?

R. I don't think you can succeed on your own, maybe you have such a feeling throughout the day but to truly succeed is impossible. You can only succeed in the vessel that we assemble from the fragments of Adam HaRishon; this means that we succeed, that we advance, we correct. That is why we see how much we can do more nevertheless.

26. S. (01:42:42) How do we evoke the fear in the ten in the state of the descent? Sometimes we don't want to lower the spirit but I also understand that there is a possibility for the group to grow. How do we overcome the fear of the descent because sometimes we don't want to lower the group but we need to allow this?

R. Did you understand what he was saying?

S. How do we awaken the fear correctly during the time of the descent and not to lower the group during that time? How do we use that state in order to elevate the group so that it can keep growing and blossoming during the time of the person's descent?

R. From a descent it is hard to jump into an ascent, it is possible but it's tough. I would practically have a conversation and scrutinize how we can truly amend our state and how can we take care of it, it is possible. If they sit down and truly wish to come up from the descent to an ascent, they will be able to do it successfully.

27. S.(01:44:56) I wanted to ask about the state which sometimes comes during the convention and tens meetings. We start to connect when we start to adhere to the friends and feel our friends, and there's a feeling that the Creator is already next to you and you start enjoying that. From that enjoyment you close your eyes and you open your eyes and you do not feel the friends you don't feel the Creator. Can you explain that state is that a normal state, maybe we should continue it?

R. No, we cannot extend all those pleasant states more and more so that they will remain with us. We need each and every moment to establish them from the very beginning. How should I put it, I don't know. I used to have a lighter, I'm sorry for bringing this up as an example. You have those kinds of lighters that you have to maintain it so that it does not die out and this lighter will keep lighting itself, igniting itself. We need such a state in the group that each time and all the time we feel that something is igniting us, it ignites, ignites, ignites. It is better because through that we scrutinize more sparks to correct ourselves and ascending together.

S. What can ignite us and light us up, maybe some kind of an example that we can use during the day?

R. I do not know what can ignite a person in the middle of the day and put him back on the spiritual course, I think it is the importance of the goal. We live in a time of what good can we expect to happen from the world, there isn't and there will not be any good. We need to see how do we build for ourselves such a relationship where we have no problem going from this world to the next, because these worlds are all about losing our donkey but we continue to live in our soul, so let's keep going.

28. S. (01:48:53) When someone is despaired from themselves and also from the answer from the Creator, how can she continue and where does she find fuel?

R. She needs to come to her friends and to cry to them, it's not a problem, right, it happens. I come to the friends I'm one of them and I'm crying, crying for them to help me that I have no hope in life. I'm not doing so great, I can only trust them, I can only count on them and they also need to help me and I need to help them and this is how we advance. From these states specifically you can climb to the top, to joy and confidence.

29. S. (01:50:23) If the Creator shows me all the time that I'm making the same mistake over and over again and I cannot fix that mistake because I feel that I lack faith in relation to the teacher or you can say in relation to the Creator. What should I do?

R. You are lacking the support of your friends, then you will have confidence in the Creator and the teacher and the group.

S. When you speak about the depth of the article and we do not seem to succeed and get deep into it. I want to get deeper into it, so is that my ego speaking to me or is that envy?

R. This is the Creator's help.

30. S. (01:51:55) The question about the tale between the student and the teacher. In the tale the teacher tells the student what he is not doing right and that you should correct this and fix etc., that towards the Creator we do not understand what He wants. We feel that He has a certain attitude, we receive a certain feeling in our life but you do not understand what He wants you to correct?

R. I will tell you once and for all and stop with those questions. You simply need to treat your friends as your children. Period.

31. S. (01:52:47) In the tale the father requests mostly for his son, why is the father not as wise as the teacher and sees the whole system?

R. Because he didn’t go to university.

32. S. (01:53:19) We are reading these articles forty-five minutes each day and there is a feeling that Rabash really made us naked, he has taken away all the dirt and shows us the truth very nicely through these articles. It turns out that women are in these cubes in the ten and they're doing efforts and sometimes you feel that you are alone in relation to these struggles of holding on to the connection and reigniting the lighter all the time. How do we reach a state that we are holding on to each other like this and our whole path is really mutual and common?

R. You need more effort, you hear me, we need more efforts.

33. S. (01:54:26) In the article that says when we enter spirituality we take that as an ascent and then we are very aware of this gap between the desired state egotistically, and in the state that we wish to reach altruistically. Then you turn to the Creator through the despair and then thanks to His help your whole outlook where you look backwards at the beginning and the descent and the despair and the whole state changes and you understand that it's all part of the process and it needed to be that way all the time. Is that the state?

R. Let it be like that way, keep going from there.

34. S. (01:55:15) In the text a few times he speaks about a person in a deep descent, that he even comes to ponder the beginning, the beginning of what?

R. Everything he used to think before is not happening.
