Preparation for the Convention - Selected Excerpts from the Sources

A. Rav’s Introduction: Yes, we have the Congress ahead of us and it is very important for us to have some new discernments in it. How necessary is the connection for us and we're going to study this now through the excerpts that the friends have prepared for us that only through connection between us do we reach a state where the upper light can be revealed. That is where we can reach the revelation of the upper system and this is what we are expecting to happen in the Congress and the connection between us, it's not that we cannot reach it outside of the Congress but the framework of the Congress nevertheless means that we connect together. We're more pressed together, we care for each other, we make sure with that. we're all connected to the same system. Then in such a way today we can finally reach what we want the purpose of our corrections which is until the Creator will be revealed in us and will rejoice from us. Let's try to go over all of these excerpts and try to keep all of these verses. Let's not be disappointed if once again it disappears and once again, we feel as though it is new as it says and they shall be as new in your eyes each and every person each and every day one has to start from anew. It seems to him that everything you did yesterday disappeared and today, well because it is truly new, new discernments. The society seems to be as new, it is all new and this is how we get to accept that each and every day should be a new day, new discernments, new records from the shattering that accordingly we need to as it says get up in the morning with a new song in your heart. This is how it is for us right now, so let's see let's renew once again within us that feeling of what does it mean a congress, what is the connection, what is the connection we have to have each and every morning, that is each and every day when we gather in the lessons and outside of the lessons. How does our gathering influence the correction of the general vessel, our general soul that for the time being is broken.

Excerpt 1 (03:51) twice

2. S. (06:18) What does it mean to follow the spirit of bestowal upon the Creator?

R. We need to reach the equivalence of form with the Creator why? This is the purpose of creation, the Creator wants to cause the created beings a benefit, the greatest and only benefit that exists in reality which is to bring the created beings to his degree to his state. His state is absolutely bestowal. This is why we need to try to start taking a few steps towards that. He created us and he broke the connection between us but in the breaking of the connection between us, we have Reshimot with the good correct state and complete connection. That is, we have in us already Reshimot from our whole path, that each one of us and each one of us together have to traverse from here to the end of correction. That is, we just have to awaken these Reshimot and actualize them. That is the Creator does it but according to our deficiency. What all in all, we need between us to find is deficiencies for corrections, the Creator performs the corrections, the deficiencies for corrections we can discover them out of lack of connection between us. Here the Creator is also revealing to us all of the conditions that we do not want to connect on the one hand and on the other hand, if we want to achieve the goal we have to connect and only in that is where we stand. If a person focuses his entire life, then the essence of his life, the reason for which he is alive well he needs to be with the family and that work and have to live and take care of his health and all of these things that is true, but what is all of this for?

He gradually understands that he has to be connected with everyone in a single desire and this collective desire which they put together between them is called the Shechina, Divinity or the desire for which the upper force will be revealed. If one tries to build the Divinity to put together its hearts in each and every one of us there is a part then he gets closer to a state where he gets help. He is in an inclination, a disposition from below to gather, to assemble the broken pieces and this is by connecting with the friends, each time more and more they feel that in their tens, that it is not a matter of physical connection but internal connection. Connection in the desires, in the passions, in the intentions, then they shift from egoistic desires to desires of the upper world, of bestowal, of love, of connection. This way they feel accordingly how the upper force is helping them to connect to the extent that they want more internal connection to that extent they feel that the Creator is with them. That way gradually from the deficiencies they reach a connection with the Creator.

S. How did this condition come about?

R. This is if we truly try to read what was written by the Kabbalist and we try each and every day to see these texts as new and we reach a state where we want to actualize it and it happens, simply more and more a few days or a few more years but eventually it happens.

3. S. (12:13) What can we add to our annulment?

R. Nothing besides annulment towards the friends.

S. But what can we add other than the annulment from ourselves?

R. There is no more annulment towards the friends towards the teachers Rabash and Baal HaSulam towards all of the laws that they are telling us about upon which stands the wisdom of Kabbalah which is the system of the upper worlds of bestowal and love emerging out of oneself towards the others, this is what we need besides that nothing.

4. S. (13:12) Divinity to dwell between us what does it mean to dwell?

R. We are parts of the shattering from the shattering of the Divinity, the Divinity is the field in which the Creator dresses, in which he is revealed and so we need to be connected even though we are all egoists and we reject each other, we need to find ourselves as connected. In the connection between us we reach such a power, a character of connection that the Creator can be revealed. Specifically, because we have a natural rejection, repulsion from each other and above it, we have a disposition towards mutual connection with each other. In the gap between the rejection and the connection the more we try, we want, we ask the Creator to help us to be connected even though we reject each other, we even reach a state where we hate each other, so in that gap between the present state and the desirable state. This is considered to be the power of the intensity of the connection all in all. So accordingly, we reach the revelation of the Creator, all in all we reach some kind of power intensity of the force of bestowal between us. That also rises above the force of reception between us so that the Creator begins to be revealed and when he begins to be revealed then we realize more and more how we should increase that force of mutual bestowal upon the force of mutual rejection which is also revealed in order to help us develop the force of mutual bestowal and that way we advance.

S. How to regulate the rejection and repulsion that rises between us?

R. We don't want to, we don't have to awaken the rejection between us, it'll come to the extent we want to get closer between us and the rejection, the negative, our ego, we don't have to worry about that, the Creator takes care of that. He says I created the evil inclination and from now until the end of correction he is constantly concerned that he will have ego so that we can work above our rejections, that love will cover all crimes and this is how we reach the Creator.

S. So the only one the vessel to make room for the Divinity is that's it that's what we worry about.

R. Yes, we only need to be concerned with that.

5. S. (16:34) Lately we're trying to build the right intention through our prayer in the 10, will this help us?

R. Of course, only that will help us only the correct relations, the correct connections between us will help us to build what we call the Divinity in such relations between us and which the Creator will be revealed.

6. S. (17:18) When we feel connection in the preparation for the Congress right now, how can we act in order to raise to the next degree?

R. This is the question really, how can we act in order to rise to the next degree? To the revelation of the Creator to the created beings which we had from the beginning of the ladder of degrees, on that first state of the revelation of the Creator. We will begin to rise higher and higher on all of the ladders of the rungs of the ladder until the end of correction, on this ladder there are 125 degrees. There is a lot written about that but the most important for us is to enter the first degree. What is that first degree? Each and every degree that I step on, what does it mean that I step on it, as much as my will to receive exists, now it is revealed and as much as I am in a will to bestow above the will to receive, this is considered that I am stepping on that degree. Then a greater will to receive is revealed in me and I also elevate myself above it in my will to bestow. This is how it is with each and every degree and the coarseness, the desire and each and every degree helps me to build ascent upon it so that I use it in order to precisely build my degree of bestowal, my need for bestowal, the character of bestowal. This is how I do it so we need to see in all of these states, where it is difficult for us and we feel that we are being rejected each and every day, every morning, a few times a day it becomes revealed to us that we don't want connection, we don't need it, so we have to see in that help, specifically that each and every time when force is hinder us that are revealed it is actually forces of help.

7. S. (20:10) How can we add extra bestowal to Creator if we bestow to friends in what can we add bestowal to the Creator?

R. Through bestowal to the friends we can gather all of our acts of bestowal between us, which is already called a 10, it's not that each one wants to bestow to the other that is not a 10. Yet these are just people individuals, but when we begin through the mutual bestowal between us to bestow to the Creator, that we want to bestow to the Creator, how do I bestow to the Creator? First of all, I help the friends to turn to him, when I care that they will all be turning to the Creator, they will be free to turn to him. I care that each one will care for the other, that specifically we will connect on that around that and it turns out that we all connect as though we are one man, truly as though we are one man. Because I care for all of these pieces, all of these parts that are in the friends, these are my parts. All of us care for the connection between us, that it will be directed to the Creator so that we will raise our deficiency to the Creator, so it turns out that we have reached the state where we have already built a deficiency that incorporates our individual desires and each one cares for the others. That it is not that we are in the 10, we are joining together 10 deficiencies together, no, these are not 10 deficiencies together it's that each one cares for the others to be connected and that they will come closer to the Creator. This is an entirely different connection than in some ordinary group. That is the connection between us has a connection in that each one cares that the others will connect and will turn to the Creator and he supports that as Rabash writes in his Social Articles. That way with this mutual concern we build our common desire and our common deficiency and our common hope, so that it all comes together and it connects until it becomes as one and at that moment when we connect us one, then the Creator comes and is revealed between us that's it. Then we feel that he is revealed that connection between us when each one was concerned about the others. That they will connect and they will turn to the Creator and that this will be our entire desire, that I care for the friends that they will connect and they will connect with the Creator. This way each one cares that the others will connect and connect with the Creator and he supports it and he does it and he hurts about it. He is truly sick and ill about this and this is how we caused the connection of these desires, these deficiencies towards the Creator that they're all directed and they reach a single heart as we call it. If we reach such a state immediately the Creator is revealed. That's it, then we feel Him and He tells us, where you are? I was waiting for you for such a long time and finally you are here and we are rewarded with such a welcome, such a reception.

8. S. (25:20) When we are born are we already egoists and disconnected from the upper force or is it our education and our culture of our family's former education, is this what causes our disconnection?

R. It is all arranged in such a way that all the forces of attraction and rejection will help us build a spiritual vessel and even though we see that there are many forces that hinder us on the path, what do we need all of that for? If we were like let's say in the Garden of Eden and nothing would hinder us, it is all arranged, we don't need any food or sleep or anything, we would all be wide awake with our heads vacant and wide open. All we feel is how much we are ready and we want the revelation of the Creator and we truly yearn for him, like this that would not be good that would not be good. The Creator created the will to receive, and this is just his force operating, this is why we need to realize that everything awakens in our world, in our sensation, it is all to our benefit so that specifically with all of these disturbances we need them in order to reach the correct corrections. Otherwise, we will be lacking the intensity of the desire, the intensity of the connection so that we have to overcome them and then to reach contact with the Creator.

9. S. (28:11) How can the concerns of each and every friend about the advancement of the friends become something common, something one?

R. When I care for all of the friends not for myself but rather for all of the friends like a father towards his children that they will get along and they will connect, they will succeed in discovering the Creator. They will be filled by him through equivalence of form and this is how it is with each and every one then specifically in that concern, we connect.

S. But how does it become one thing?

R. Because each one is concerned for the others, he comes out of himself that he discovers in his concern for the others, he is actually concerned with the essence of the 10. This is how we connect everyone can multiply in the center of the 10.

S. This one thing, is it felt by everyone?

R. Well it's on the way, yes, in the transition to the next degree it will be felt as one.

10. S. (29:40) How to imagine a state where the 10 is ready for congress, what do we wish to reach?

R. This is what we are talking about, we are talking about, what does it mean it's ready, nobody's ready. If he's ready in this moment and he discovers that he's ready and the next moment he discovers he is not ready that he's still missing something. This is how it is still the end of correction; we have to constantly yearn, you have nothing clear ahead of you, that this is what you have to reach and that's it no more. Let's say I need to reach 10 kg of a common deficiency between us in the friends, there is no such thing, in spirituality it doesn't work this way. In spirituality it is always that you are opposite Ein Sof, infinity against the abstract upper light, there is no limit, no boundary to bestowal but rather each one of us as much as he can bestow out of himself and this is how we make the corrections.

S. Is it correct to introduce the idea that if we succeed in the act of connection, it will help all of humanity in this state to connect the two?

R. Because we are in a single vessel with all of humanity, all people, all of the souls, then each and every action of ours also influences the whole of humanity, yes.

11. S. (31:36) What does it mean to care that the friends will turn to the Creator?

R. To care that they will all be connected and you just want that, only the connection between them. That is like a kindergarten teacher caring for the children, that it says concerning man's heart, this is actually what sustains this connection. his is how each and every one of us has to care that his friends will connect so much so that in the mutual bestowal between them they will already be equalized with the Creator in some form, to some extent that's the first spiritual degree, mutual bestowal. We need to depict to ourselves more clearly what are the missions for the ascent for the first spiritual degree that we are in mutual bestowal to one another that we are in a disposition in connection in mutual help so much so that the force of bestowal truly to some extent dwells among us or at least for the deficiency hat dwells among us. Then the upper light influences us, bestows to us, according to our deficiency to be interconnected mutually, it helps us, it performs its action of connecting us. This is called the Lord will finish for me, the Creator will finish for me, he establishes this vessel and after that he clothes in it and he is revealed. What does it mean he is revealed? We from the side of the vessel have reached a state where we discover such a connection of mutual bestowal, of mutual help, that this is already in the quality of the Creator to the smallest extent but still it's something.

S. This is called turning to the Creator?

R. No, to turn to the Creator returning to the Creator for help, here I was already talking about the revelation of the Creator.

12. S. (34:13) What about more internal connections, what causes these connections in the group?

R. There are connections that are more internal, external, all connections are connections. Let's not start sorting them now. That's it we want such connections that according to their intensity and their character, we can act as if to a single desire and in it we discover the Creator, that he is one that is all. That is all of the connections between us are in order to discover the single desire. That's it.

Excerpt 2 (35:25)

13. R. (36:45) It's clear to us that only on the condition that each one diminishes himself and he annuls himself towards the others, by that he prepares himself for spirituality, to the extent that he's lowers his head, he is willing to help the others he is willing to truly to be a carpet before them. Truly let them step on him so long as they will read it rise to spirituality, as much as a person is ready and willing to do that for the others. This also has to do with external acts of the bestowal, external actions of this world and also how much he tries in his inner sensations, his inner devotion accordingly one brings himself closer to the spiritual vessel through annulment. The spiritual vessel is entirely where one shows himself through annulment towards everyone. This relates to the actions of Tzimtzum, Masach, Ohr Hozer, above the force of reception as much as one can rise in bestowal towards the friends instead of his force of reception, this actually is his spiritual effort according to that he builds the spiritual vessel. Of course, each time we will discover greater disturbances in order to build above them an even greater inclination towards spirituality. That way more and more and more, until he reaches the threshold the first spiritual condition, that is up to here, let's say if he received a certain sum total called a quota of disturbances and he overcomes them and he does refer to be in bestowal above reception than it is considered that the entrance to the upper world opens up for him.

14. S. (39:40) Regarding the center of the 10, what is that desire that we wish to reveal first the desire to care for one another or the desire to reveal the Creator?

R. We discover there all of the desires the egoistic desires of each and every one desires towards a rejection, towards connection mutual connection between us, all kinds of calculations, we have to sort these desires and prefer these upon those according to the ruler, according to the degree of degradation, what is more important, what is less important. In such a way we build actually, this ruler of values. What's more important, what is less important and this is how it is until the end of correction we will always have that this is the matter of degrees, that I always prefer, I should prefer the force of bestowal to the force of reception and this is how we advance.

15. S. (41:13) Is there a difference between a voluntary act of annulment or trying to annul against the desire?

R. It's the same thing, isn't it?

S. That's the point because we say an act of annulment but I can never and all I can only try to install?

R. Yes, but you are trying of course, you can't do it by yourself, you need the Creator to do it for you but nevertheless, the work is your work, it is your effort, you never have the power of bestowal, the power to overcome. In our world it seems to us that we have our own forces right but in spirituality no and spirituality we always remain as the point and upon this point an egoistic will to receive is revealed. On the other hand, altruistic as we call it desire to bestow and this is how we build ourselves through the right combination between the will to receive and the will to bestow.

16. S. (42:38) Inside the ten, each of one before a friend you said that we are building a spiritual vessel and each time we rise above the will to receive that was given to us. The spiritual vessel does it include egoistic desire or something we build above it?

R. The spiritual vessel includes within it the egoistic desire also the rejection between us and when I above this force of rejection, ask I demand we find the force of connection and bestowal and with the two of them as coarseness, restriction, screen and reflected light it all enters this one spiritual vessel. I'm specifically standing on my desire and I rise upon a desire to bestow.

S. I rise to a desire to bestow as you say in the revelation of the Creator inside the spiritual vessel that's allowed. Does that happen?

R. We're not talking about that, about how we're not talking about that, it's like that if you do it you will find out that it, I don't like to engage in fantasies. We are only talking from the side of the vessel, what is it that we have to do so that we will reach the revelation of the Creator, this is all of our work.

S. I am simply trying to understand that perspective of the terminology when we say the restriction and the screen and the reflected light, what is this Creator?

R. It's as though you know what inner light is. You have such fantasies and I don't want you to be in that. I want you to be in the preparation of the vessels, this will just confuse you believe me.

Excerpt 3 (44:56) twice

17. R. (46:50) We need to understand that the soul devotion towards the connection with the friends is what I need to give, only to that I need to, myself, and I need to invest only in that. The conditions that we have today where we see our friends scattered across computer screens, individual computer screens as we see it now. This is we have to accept it, that it is given to us to see it, I see so many groups before me so many forms it is all in order to make it easier for us, more correct so we can name ourselves towards the connection between us. Specifically, like this when I see so many friends and they are not next to me where I have to annul certain corporeal things between us rather, I can aim myself at the interconnection between us more from heart to heart. In this way I am closer to the spiritual realization.

Reader (48:32)

18. S. (50:20) About what you said earlier that we need to care for the interconnection between us from heart to heart, it sounds like there are no words literally but what exactly connects between us what should we care about exactly?

R. What connects between us are the Reshimot from the broken vessel called Adam HaRishon the first meaning the system used to be whole and then it shattered. and we need to return these records into a single system where all of us are interconnected and that's it. When this system returns and when those desires go back to being together. they are called Divinity, a place where broken desires are connected, and in the connection between them the Creator is revealed according to the degree of connection between the broken desires will want to connect above their shattering between them. Then the Creator is revealed according to the intensity of the egoistic desires and the intensity of the connection above their ego, how they were able to connect so according to the gap between the shattering and the correction, the upper light is revealed and it is laws like in physics. The more resistance we have for connection and how much as there is connection above that resistance then the result of this tension produces the revelation of the Creator, like in electricity there is a simple law.

19. S. (52:53) How is it manifested that a friend sees himself as higher than the friends and how can we help him as a 10?

R. Egoistic forms we can identify in each and every one because it is familiar to us from our own form, our own manifestations. These egoistic forms can be clarified because we know it from within ourselves how much we hate them and we dislike them and it is possible that we are not looking at it but we are looking at how these forms are hindering our connection. Because they hinder the revelation of the Creator between us in mutual bestowal, we have to help one another and typically the help is in the form of an example without much talk. For example, each one has to show the other how much he is trying to invest himself in the 10 it is not always possible. It is highly dependent on a person's nature and the nature of his participation in the society but nevertheless he has to show his willingness to be in the society and connected with them.

20. S. (54:43) We always learn that it doesn't matter if the friend has been here for let's say half a year or a year or a friend who has been here for many years, we are always equal in the 10?

R. Because the souls are unequal and that's why it is calculated from above. There are people advance and the souls enter that small group of pioneers let's say, that need to reach adhesion with the Creator. in order to give a huge mass of humanity the point of connection, the point of contact with the Creator. Into this group a new souls enter and there are those who fall out and those who advanced together, this all depends, I would say, on the essence of each one's individual soul.

S. Yes, but in continuation to the excerpt it says if we have to reach some critical mass so how can we reach this critical mass of a 10 where everyone is ready to go against themselves if not everyone has reached it in the 10 let's say it's not that we have this problem in our 10 but I'm talking in general respect to this topic if yes, let's say you choose the best people in the chosen ones to be in a 10?

R. You can't choose anything. This is nonsense, you can't choose anyone or anything. We don't know and we shouldn't do it. We should not, it is forbidden. The Creator brings a person to the good fortune and says take it. God, forbid we try to sort out these should be our friends and those should not, as long as one does not interfere, does not corrupt and practically derides this. It's not like we can sort out who is better and who is not and how can you tell what the form of advancement of each and every soul is. If you think he is the one who interferes, you are connecting with the others you are talking amongst yourselves about how much you can help the friends recuperate and recover, wake up and enter into this mutual work. But just know that the great souls, the highest souls advanced very slowly. It's not like they can right away feel this matter, rather it takes years, sometimes decades before a soul begins to understand its place. I saw such cases where a person took 20 and 30 or something years to understand what we were even talking about, and it's not like these past 30 years just passed by now. The Creator is taking care of him, except there are so many desires, so many layers that are heavy. He must sort them out and organize in stages where he doesn't know what it is talking about like a little child. There are those who have problems seemingly that they don't advance fast, and on that it says beware of the children of the poor who have nothing because Torah will come out of them. Beware of the children of the poor because the Torah will come out of them, that little one will become a great one. Those who advance quickly and they move swiftly and they are so bright they might not be the most successful in the end so we shouldn't make any calculations in the 10, who are more beneficial or less beneficial according to what they are able to show us.

S. This is clear to me. One small thing I meant, that if there is a 10 and they should all reach a state where they're going against themselves, how can this happen in a 10 where each one is in a completely different place till?

R. Each one is in a different place because you're still not connected into one vessel and even when you do connect each and every one will have his own place, it'll begin to feel how different you are even more than before. Before you were like babies and you point to differences between babies where when they grow up each one's nature, characteristic and inner qualities begin to become more apparent, they stand out. It's not as you think, the main thing is for us not to enter sorting and correction in place of the Creator. Day to day He will express.

21. S. (01:01:51) Is true annulment a gift from the Creator and if so, what actions do we need to make and obtain this from him?

R. True annulment is truly a spiritual action. Like all other spiritual actions, we need to get help from above since we have nothing spiritual in us, nothing of bestowal or connection. These things in spirituality belong to the Creator and only the Creator can give the strength for it to annul ourselves and rise above our ego and connect between us. If we think that we can do it by ourselves, it is all still on the egoistic level. That's how we need to discover and understand and then to demand the forces for the Creator to show us the true state to give us the forces to perform the correct actions in connection and then for us to understand, to know what the state was like before the connection and what is it like now.

22. S. (01:03:22) When will you raise the intention of an order to bestow, can we say that the created being has more experience than the Creator because the Creator is only bestowal and the created being is reception?

R. No, the Creator manages both His will to bestow, which is Him, and the will to receive which He manages, He created. Outside of the Creator we have nothing that comes out from under His control, there is no such thing. Everything is under the force of the Creator. However, when the Creator created creation, He moved aside and He gave us a certain area where we can exist. In this area we need to find out who we are, what we are, what do we want? It's not like the Creator completely left us. He is still controlling us in a state where He is seemingly not there. Just like the way we are taking care of little kids. They think we are not next to them and they can do whatever they want and we are looking at them. We know if they are okay or not and how they behave. It's the same thing here with us. The Creator seemingly left us, He created this restricted place, restriction, and inside this restriction we can exist. Our existence is possible only through our ego. Meaning He left, so all that's left is the force of reception. We, by being in this force of reception, begin to feel gradually each one according to his own development, how much the force of bestowal are we lacking. Otherwise, we are in a closed, low state without the ability to locate ourselves, understand where we are, how we exist. Consequently, our work is in order to draw the force of the Creator to our dark state. This is done when we imagine with our actions that we are already doing the actions of the Creator. That’s why ‘each shall help his friend’ and ‘love your friend as yourself’ and ‘connection in the 10’ and ‘mutual influence; as much as possible. Using these forces, we first of all, draw a little bit, we bring the Creator closer to us, His influence on us. This is called ‘the reforming light’ -- ‘the surrounding light’ that is working on us from afar -- until we discover that it is happening.

23. S. (01:07:11) What is the interaction between us which we call ‘equivalence of form’?

R. Only connection and love, connection. There is no more. We have nothing more to do or to gain if it's clear to you that there was a complete vessel and it shattered and it's up to us to restore it. What more is there to ask. Only connect between us as the parts of the broken vessel and look for ways for actions that we can use in order to bring these parts to connection.

S. What is the spiritual glue that is the best in order to do it?

R. Concessions, first of all, concession.

24. S. (01:08:18) You talked about friends that the Creator is taking care of them and they're going through different states. Why does it say, ‘be watchful of the poor’? Why not love them and embrace them, what should we be watchful about?

R. Be watchful of people, of us, such desires that have a great will to receive. These are called ‘poor’. feel themselves to have nothing, why, because specifically with these great desires that work from that, the Torah comes out. By that we can require the upper light, the revelation of the Creator, understanding His ways, giving Him contentment. Specifically, through the poor, meaning those desires we feel for year, those desires that are in us and we can't do anything about them. Day in, day out, this is how we are in this life, as poor. Beware of them because, specifically, those desires enter the great corrections and the Creator considers them, He loves them, those poor people.

S. How can we help such a friend who is going through different states, he goes out, comes back. How do we take care of him?

R. What do you mean, I don't understand?

S. We have a friend who is going through different states. He came out a little bit. In our eyes, it seems as though he grew weaker. How do we accept him back? When he wants to come back, how should we behave with him?

R. If he doesn't interfere rather, he's got such swings inside of him, then you take him back. But if he creates all those waves and stirs up all the turmoil in your 10, then we need to see whether or not we need it. We shouldn't forgive everything. Maybe he's doing so much damage that we can't add those things to us, we can't overcome them, on the contrary, perhaps.

S. So, how do we decide? What is ripple or impact (of) what we can’t accept or what we should?

R. You should decide between you. You should tell him that as well. He must connect to what the society is going through. And understand what he is stirring (up).

25. S. (01:11:47) It's not clear to me to be ‘careful watchful’? Does it mean to avoid them?

R. I can't say such things clearly, what is the judgment here, and how you should behave because those things are specific to each and every state. Hence talk about them if you have a great problem and you cannot rise above it, then we will talk about it. But it is very difficult because no one can understand, no onlooker can understand what is going on with you, as much as you tried to tell him.

26. S. (01:12:43) Can we recognize the arrival of the new Reshimot for the correction, individually, and also in the 10, how can we recognize it?

R. Yes, we can recognize if this state belongs to each one's individual state in the 10 and how the influences, in general, towards the rest of the 10.

Excerpt 4 (1:17:05 - 1:17:43)

27. R. (01:17:45) This is something unique that is not present in any other corporeal phenomena, so by connecting, each is incorporated in the other and everyone together is incorporated in each one. Meaning each one becomes like Adam HaRishon, each one. This is the special result of the shattering of the vessels from Adam HaRishon. Why did the Creator shatter it, since through the shattering when we connect together above our egos then each one of us acquires the intensity to connect, the mind and the intellect, all of the good phenomena from everyone? Each part of the broken vessel becomes like the entire broken vessel, like the entire corrected vessel. Meaning each part acquires both the shattering and the vessel, and becomes as Adam HaRishon, each one from the broken vessel. That can explain, a little bit, the necessity for shattering the vessel and then correcting it. Then each and every individual soul becomes like the entire vessel, like a general soul. It turns out that we have an integral level of the entire vessel that the Creator created in a complete way. We can't imagine because each one of us receives a desire, a deficiency, the ability to discover the Creator, entirely, he truly attains it. This is what is ahead of us at the end of correction.

28. S. (01:20:08) How to imagine in the spiritual world that everything is connected and especially how to see the connection of friends in the 10?

R. We will discover that we are all connected. We don't need to do anything about that. Only to remove our ego that hinders us, hinders our effort to see the complete picture, the complete connection. We don't need anything else other than that, just to remove the ego that prevents us from seeing the true form where all of us are already in, connected together, and the shattering has taken place, I would say, in a psychological way. That is, our ego is created so that we would be able to understand, to discern, as light excels from darkness that we are in a state of connection and there wasn't ever even a broken state. Nothing of all of that difficulty and problems -- it’s only so that we will understand and feel more the perfect states that we are already in.

29. S. (01:22:03) How important is it to add to the deep and correct intentions of physical actions that are present in the 10?

R. It is important to the extent that the friends can be impressed by it. To that extent, it is important to us to add and awaken the society like that. We are still in such states where the physical, visible actions have a great deal of influence upon us.

30. S. (01:22:44) No Translation

R. I don't know about the Congress. I don't know if we will. I am not all for immediately bringing everyone in. Those who are in Israel, not all of us because most of us - in this small country of ours - live far away. So do you have the Congress here, I don't know. You have to discuss it and decide on it. To what extent are we capable of providing everyone the ability to come in, to feed everyone. It is not simple, you know all of that, you used to do it. And I am also concerned. I see people who are here: Czechoslovakia, Vienna, Turkey, MAK, Kiev, Almata, another MAK, Toronto, and so forth. Even the likes of Rehobot, Gamiel, Karmiel, and so on. I don't think they can come to us even in Israel. I am afraid to introduce it to our group which appears much more homogenous, today, where we all feel ourselves as equals, it doesn’t matter if it is Brazil, Asia, Israel, Russia, or Europe, or America. If we have the Congress, here, a physical Congress, it will create a sense of imbalance, inequality between those who are here and those who are everywhere else in the world. I am really concerned and fearful of doing it. Inside, I would be truly careful. I don't know what to do. I'm telling you all of this because I think you need to be incorporated with just feeling as well and decide if it is correct for us to do or not. The important thing is to reach connections. It is possible that a few hundred people will come here -- let's say, three or four hundred people -- and gather here in our study hall and it will create further imbalance between what's going on here and what's happening with each and every other Ten. I don't think it will contribute to having one single, unified vessel. So let us think about it carefully. For the time being you can vote on whether or not we should do it and in what way, yes or no. We need to come up with questions on the matter and try to understand where we are. These questions even in and of themselves are good if they make us think. But I am mostly worried about the Integrity of the general vessel. For me, someone who is in Patagonia, at the end of the world, China or Japan, Alaska, we have friends in all of those places, right? So, for me, they are together with me. But if a few of our friends will be physically close, let’s say four hundred people, and others will not be, that is already determining the state in this world. Think about it. I want you to decide, scrutinize these states. You should discuss it. Each and every one will be incorporated with everyone else. These discussions, nevertheless, will bring us closer and we need that closeness. We need nothing else, not the intellect or anything -- heartfelt closeness. Closer and closer between us, this is what we need until the Creator will appear in this connection.

31. S. (01:28:37) Technically, even in Israel, the law says in close places we have to put on masks and keep our distance. Certainly, we're not going to have 300 or 400 people there. Along with everything you said we also have this limitation.

R. I don't think it will blow over so quickly. I don't think this virus will want to bid us farewell. We have enough internal viruses that we allow to live in us.

32. S. (01:29:25) In the Congresses, usually many gather physically, let's say in apartments or they go do picnics together. Can we support this?

R. Undoubtedly, you are correct. If you can connect in your 10's to some picnic as a 10, here a 10 and there, another 10. If you can in such a way make yourself some kind of form of connection, even corporeally, and according to the limitations with the local government, the Health Department, then I will be very happy to hear such things. That is very important. But under the condition that you truly adhere to connection upon all the disturbances.

33. S. (01:30:38) You look at the soccer stadiums, they have thousands of people there already, I don't understand the problem, but this is not the topic.

R. We do everything only according to the commands of the health department. I don't care what they do on the soccer fields or on the airplanes, this is not important to me. It is only important to me to follow the law, according to the law, and Rabash taught us always to do so. The law that is defined in the country is what we need to truly keep. This is governance, this is how providence comes from above. If the Creator would like to do something else, He would put into the head of the leaders something else, instead. The doctors, the Health Department, etc. We need to observe the laws of the state, each and every state where a person exists.

S. The Health Department removed all limitations beside masks?

R. I don't want to get into this now. We are not doing this.

S. What does it mean that each is incorporated in the forces of the other?

R. By connecting, then our souls become, slowly, slowly, come closer to being one system. Then it turns out that what I feel and what the other and the third, the fourth feel and what they think becomes truly like in our world people who live together, they start to feel and understand each other without talking. We’re also like this only in a more internal, spiritual way.

S. What is the unique remedy between the friends

R. The remedy is that we become one Kli where the Creator can be revealed in it.

S. How can you work with one vessel with so many people in one place?

R. That is not important, what do we have a few thousands? We're talking about billions that need to connect in that way. If everyone is connected or wants to connect, then the upper force connects because it is in Him that our hearts will rejoice.

S. You say everything can be done through the internet, virtually through the screens?

R. Yes, did you think 20 or 30 years ago that there would be a connection between us? Where you see all the different countries on the screen as we do?

S. It seemed easier when they brought up the idea before, that maybe it’s easier with three or four hundred people in the study hall? It's not like we're connecting from the world.

R. I am envious of you that you know how to talk.

34. S. (01:34:11) How does it happen that we need to nullify the ego in order to reveal that we are connected and at the same time we say the ego remains?

R. We are canceling the intention in order to receive, that’s it. We want to make it mutual, the will to receive, or even, in order to bestow. To the contrary of itself. This is what we do. The will to receive itself does not disappear, it is the creation, you can't cancel it. But rather only with the intention that you use it for. Either for our will to receive for our own benefit versus for the benefit of others.

S. It doesn't need to be called an ego, the desire is neutral, so why do we say the ego remains?

R. The desire to receive is the desire to receive. Upon this the intention for oneself is done in order to receive, this is called the Klipot. But the desire to receive is my nature. If it were to disappear, I wouldn't feel myself, I wouldn't feel reality or anything. The desire to receive helps me feel myself and the world and the Creator even. Everything that is in me and outside of me I feel in my desire to receive. Now the question is, how am I impressed by that which I feel inside my desire to receive, internally, externally? How am I impressed by it in order to enjoy myself or in order to delight others? This is the difference between the Creator and the created being. The Creator wants to start with the creature, to enjoy himself, and the Creator wants to delight others. This is where we need to try and change ourselves from in order to receive to in order to bestow. That is a whole of the wisdom of Kabbalah. Meaning all together, a number of means that help us change our intention from looking and being aimed towards ourselves or looking aimed towards the benefit of others. That’s it.

S. In the worry for the friend, does there need to be something besides the prayer for connection with the 10?

R. The concern for the friend needs to be expressed only in as helping him to feel, well we have two things: to connect the 10, and to reveal the Creator inside the 10. Meaning to correct the Kli, connect in the 10, and to reveal the Creator inside the 10 and receive the light. That is all. These are the two actions we need all together. This is how we need to help each other.

35. S. (1:38:47) Adhering to the friends in the 10, that is what I need to focus on and through that I will reach adhesion with a force of the entire society? Also, will I feel the force of the entire society will feel through the 10?

R. Yes, only through your 10, no matter what. Also, the end of correction, you will receive through your 10.

S. I can't receive a force from society directly?

R. No, how can you be connected to society altogether without it 10? How is that possible? It is not according to the structure of the system of reality where you are connected to a certain part of it and you need to connect to this part and to awaken it, vitalize it. And this part should start connecting to the bigger part and they will be bigger and from there to the bigger ones until you come to the states where you will feel the whole system. This is the only way that it works. We are in a system and you can't cancel it.

S. Is it okay that I'm only engaged in my 10?

R. For the time being, yes.

36. S. (01:40:25) What does it mean to incorporate with the force of the friends. What is this dependence on?

R. To incorporate with the force of the friends depends on the extent that I understand that this is the way for the correction of my soul. Even egotistically, where even if I need to correct my soul, my soul is the 10. Then I need to incorporate it and present it from myself to the Creator. Then the Creator is revealed in the 10 towards me and this is how I reveal the Creator inside the Shechina, inside the 10, inside the Kli. There is no other way to connect to the Creator besides the 10. Every single day you need to convince yourself, again and again, to convince yourself of this. These are new Reshimot every moment that are being revealed and we need to understand that this is the correction.

37. S. (01:42:13) The passage we just read says ‘the force of nullification we take from the 10 by the desire of each friend to nullify,’ and on the other hand we know only the Creator can give us this force. The bottom line is where do we take this force from, the friends or the Creator?

R. There is no force other than the Creator as there is nothing else besides Him but the lack of that force, we need to take from ourselves and all the friends. Because we were connected together at one point and now, we need to return to that state where we have a deficiency to once more be together and restore that state in which we were together, and draw the Creator towards us, to correct us and fill us.

S. You're saying the correction of desire needs to turn into mutual prayer?

R. Of course, at last you understood something.

38. S. (01:43:23) How do I serve the 10 to the Creator?

R. By supporting them, wanting to connect them, to love them, and raise them towards the Creator. to push them forward above. This is called that you are giving this Kli to the Creator on your behalf, so that He will be revealed in it and care for it and correct it. 9 Sefirot and you are the Malchut where you are nullifying yourself and only wanting to revive them, for the Creator to be revealed in them.

Excerpt 5 (01:44:15 -01:46:40)

39. S. (01:46:45) What does it mean that it always continues and is drawn through the person who is regarded as the heel in the work?

R. Each who can annul themself more is considered the foundation of the Malchut, the whole society and by that everyone turns into competition as lower as a person can be and can nullify l before the society by this whole society can benefit and grow. That is where the competition is.

S. It is a bit odd the word competition because everyone is doing the maximum?

R. This is where each one shall help his friend in such a way where I envy others that it seems to me that one shall help the others as they see them as much greater, they are annulling themselves they are bestowing to everyone one another and where am I? This is called one shall help a friend and there are many verses that support this.

40. S. (01:47:50) You said before what is unique in spirituality that each one truly becomes as Adam HaRishon that can reveal the Creator. In each one of these passages, it is different, a different part, a different piece of the puzzle. How did these two forms sit together as on one hand each one is a piece of the puzzle and each one is the entire puzzle?

R. The fact that each is different during the time of the corrections is how we depict everything to our matter, the fact that we are, the more we come closer towards true corrections, each feels that he is truly integrated from everyone and the person is the small world and eventually comes to a point where other than the Creator and him nothing else, this is called Israel, the light and the Creator are one. We can't now understand this with our animalistic brain because it divides, defines things at this point but when we do come to spirituality, we will understand this is how it is. We're even though each of us is feeling himself as one towards the Creator and altogether in reality with that, he actually should have integrated with everyone canceling himself towards everyone in order to come to be in the measure of Israel. If you see anywhere, it says Israel you can instead put your name, this is what Rabash said, Here oh Israel, hear oh Michael, there's none other than him and none other than you and you want to come to identify with that one force.

S. How is it that each person needs to tell himself, how does this work out that we need to push all of their friends, this should be the desire outside of me?

R. I said this is on the way where the Creator depicts all of reality or in the end where reality is revealed as truth there is a difference between the integral complete perception and the discrete individualistic perception. This is how it is certainly, there is no more than one man and no more in reality than one man as it is written. There is such a verse that explains this to us and this is how it will be revealed to us slowly. Our problem is that we cannot grasp in our intellect what spirituality is, but what can you do. We play with it until we grow and slowly, we enter, we have yet to come into the spiritual perception even a little and then we begin to understand what integrality means, that everything is one and that the collective and the individual are equal, these are things that according to our intellect and our feeling, it is not easy to grasp.

Excerpt 6 (01:52:10) twice

Baal HaSulam, "600,000 Souls" (01:54:34)

“There is indeed only one soul in the world, as it is written (Genesis 2:7), “and breathed into his nostrils the soul [also “breath” in Hebrew] of life.” That same soul exists in all the children of Israel, complete in each and every one, as in Adam HaRishon, since the spiritual is indivisible and cannot be cut—which is rather a trait of corporeal things.

Rather, saying that there are 600,000 souls and sparks of souls appears as though it is divided by the force of the body of each person. In other words, first, the body divides and completely denies him of the radiance of the soul, and by the force of the Torah and the Mitzva [commandment], the body is cleansed, and to the extent of its cleansing, the common soul shines on him.”

41. R. (01:56:00) There are no words for this it is until we received the first feeling of what spirituality is, we won't be able to depict to ourselves how it can be that there are many people in one, however there are many souls and one and how this integrality takes place where everything connects into one thing, you won't be able to imagine it.

42. S. (01:56:32) In the previous article what does it mean about hatred for himself, it states we need to practice love of others and feel hatred for ourselves. What does this mean?

R. Hatred to oneself that is to one's ego where a person hates his ego because it separates between him and the Creator, the ego stands between us, between me and the Creator and I need to dispel it. I don't get rid of it. I neutralize it so that it won't be in an egoistic form and later I even moved to using it in order to bestow. It is not that I am going through a lens that distances me from the Creator but rather by me bringing the Creator closer, by turning the binoculars upside down or backwards it shows it as being closer or further, this is how we try to invert, switch or flip from seeing close to seeing far, or the opposite. This means that we are going through a restriction and we begin to work according to a different system, a different method of how to bring the Creator closer to us and it all depends upon us because the Creator is the force that fills all of reality and it all depends upon how we received this force.

43. S. (01:59:00) What is the sensation of spirituality?

R. The feeling of spirituality is where we are in one world and we all belong to one force and between us there is no class but rather we all attribute ourselves to the same one upper force called the Creator who created us, sustains us, keeps us, this is all. It is from this that these spiritual feelings come from there and then of course the result of this is where a person truly changes. Imagine to yourselves that we now are receiving a fact, like in our feeling now that we all belong to one root and it manages us, controls us and we all accordingly start to feel how close we are to one another and belonging to one another. From this we can determine our advancing spiritual states. This is how it is.

44. S. (02:00:48) We learned today about nullification, what does it mean to be a nullification in the course of the congress?

R. During the convention it is much more important than any other day to be in annulment because during the convention what is special is that many more people that connect to regularly among us including women and men, those who are more distant, those who are and are not in our lessons, there is a much greater force. Also those external people that we don't feel and see or count usually, but that they are with us from very far circles and there is a true connection with many thousands of connections with a great intensity in the vessel and the more that we, the internal part of the vessel are connected together and want to be in one vessel then that one vessel will define also the form of connection to us from all of the external circles of ours and we will be able to influence the world in a very meaningful way.

S. Meaning that in the Congress itself nullification is more internal work?

R. Yes of course much more internal work and we need to be ready for this, we need to understand this and this is how we advance.

Excerpt 7 (02:03:15) twice

45. S. (02:05:20) Love of friends, is nullification enough or do we also need a screen?

R. No, this is according to the degree, all of these spiritual rules and laws come from the moment that we want to enter into relations between us and with the Creator until the end of correction, don't think that it ends, don't think that your 10 is a few degrees that you are going through first grade and second grade, that there is no 10. It extends and continues until the end of correction and in the last moment of the end of correction you will see how difficult it is for you to connect with your friends where you couldn't imagine to yourself how each and every one of them is such an egoist and you are standing with a knife behind his back that he is holding like that and each one is thinking how they can kill you and how it is a true disaster. Where are all the Klipot revealed? They are revealed between the friends, the whole world of Klipot is revealed between the friends, all of the worst possible things are all between the friends. There is no more, there is no room for anything worse.

S. In nullification are we connecting through that annulment itself?

R. Annulment is not connection, annulment is like a restriction where I cancel my ego but the question is what I connect with if not through the ego as I don't have anything, so I ask for the reforming light to come and invert for me the part of my ego to bestow. This is already called receiving in order to bestow. I already need to be in the vessels of bestowal and practice in order to connect, that will come. we are just more and more need to incorporate ourselves with what we are reading now.

46. S. (02:08:09) What is the intention in the word forced?

R. It means that he must, he is obliged to disclose the love in his heart into the words of his friends, he must disclose it in practice. because by revealing it he evokes his friends' hearts towards the friends so they also will feel that each of them is practicing in love of friends and the benefit from bad is that each will feel that the others are engaging in love of friends. By this he receives more forcefully, the force to integrate within each other because the force of love in each of each of them is integrated with an incorporation, not of the egoistic forces, how each one sees the other that comes sharper and crueler but on the contrary, each sees how the friends are overcoming themselves and want to disclose this attitude, this love toward each other so he also is included in it. If we could now connect between us in a minimal way, in such a way that each will show to the others how he wants to be in love, how he is drawn to it, how his complete hope, maybe his yearning or his longing that we would immediately in the spiritual world.

47. S. (02:10:14) One of the instructions we got in preparation for the Congress is we also need to awaken each other between the 10s in the Congress so the connection is in the 10 but the support to give an example of raising envy is also between the 10's.

R. Between 10s I didn't yet say that I said inside the 10, between the 10s it is very hard, in order to begin to connect between the 10s, we need to already be connected between us in the 10. I cannot connect myself to another 10 that will just be confusing, it is not correct. Imagine to yourself that you are in such relations in human society. How can I, in my society, connect myself with something that is outside of me? That is not good, only under the condition that I feel myself connected to the 10 and in the measure that I am connected to the 10, in the manner I am connected to the 10 where I am already with them in some one framework as one. Then I awaken the whole framework, all of us together and we all connect together into another 10, not me myself.

S. Of course not me myself but from within the 10 so what is the work, is there even work between the 10s the Congress?

R. We can give an external example of each ten towards the others and each person towards the others but truly to awaken the warmth and coming closer to one another, adhesion, only that as we still haven't reached the states where we are truly connected in the 10 as one unit. and because of this we cannot start connecting between the units that each 10 will be as one unit and then these ones that each one of them from within the ten can start connecting between the tens. In the meantime, no, be very careful.

S. How do we do this example of awakening between the tens?

R. We give examples to one another in order to give them a good example of how we are connected not that we do not want to connect to another ten but only to give examples one towards another of how we are connected within the ten.

S. Thank you.

R. Don't jump above our degree of where we are, we have to be adhered to the state where we are.

48. S. (02:14:18) Why when we study TES when we study there is a feeling of connection and when we don’t it disappears?

R. You don't receive any interaction from the study except from your mind and then when you're disconnected you think you're connected to everybody and it's a lie.

49. S. (02:14:56) About what you said earlier that friend would want to be with a knife and kill each other, if in a 10 that there is a friend that I really prefer for all of humanity to be destroyed except for being with him/

R. Ask the friends for advice, take some advice from the friends.

50. R. WSQ: How do we maintain ourselves from everything we spoke about now through the Congress through preparation and during the Congress?
