Part 3: Lesson on the topic: Everything is Obtained By the Power of Prayer

Reader: (00:03) We are in a lesson and the topic of Lesson on the topic of Everything is Obtained By the Power of Prayer. Selected excerpts from the sources, Excerpt Number 8. The study material is available on the sites, Sviva Tova and Arvut. You can send questions through the sites. We are in Excerpt, Number 8. 

Reading: (00:24) RABASH, Article No. 18 (1989), What Is, There Is No Blessing in That Which Is Counted, in the Work?

It is upon a person to pray each day that the Creator will open his eyes so he will recognize the greatness and importance of the Creator, so he has fuel to labor with the aim to bestow.

There are two discernments to make in this: 1) to have a desire to bestow contentment upon his Maker, that this will be his only aspiration, 2) to do things with the aim that the actions will bring him a desire to do things in order to please the Creator. In other words, he must work and toil extensively to obtain light and Kli [vessel]. Light means that he received from the Creator a desire where he craves all day to bring contentment to the Creator. A Kli is a desire, meaning that he wants to bestow upon the Creator. Those two, he should receive from the Creator, meaning both the light and the Kli.

M. Laitman: This is what we read from Rabash. In a sense, everything we have to say about the work with the Creator – the work between us – and it's entirely aimed toward the Creator. So, speak of the light and the vessel. Speak of the connection between us, how we can be connected and directed, all of us together, and all in order to give contentment to the Creator. We have no other goals than that, no other reasons for being connected and directed at the Creator, except in order to give Him contentment. All the other reasons are not included, are not part of our work with the Creator; rather our bestowal to the Creator has to be that we wish to give Him contentment from us. And accordingly, we can weigh everything and measure whatever is possible, whatever is present, whatever is at our disposal. In other words, how are we aimed only at the Creator? And how do we wish to reach only Him, so He would feel our efforts, feel our work: What are we thinking about, how much do we exert and connect, and what do we hope to attain by that? Meaning, what we want is to feel in return from the Creator, that by that we attain the goal, meaning we succeed, that's what's important to us. That's, in effect, our work. 

Question (Turkiye 1): (06:03) What does it mean to bring contentment to the Creator? 

M. Laitman: Contentment to the Creator, we check it according to our own vessels. We have no other way with which to connect to the Creator except to think and everything we do, all of our actions, our intentions, our desires. Everything we do, we do only in order to bring Him contentment. For Him to be happy with us, satisfied, that's what we wish to attain, that's what we wish to bring about. 

Question (PT 37): (07:43) It's written that the Creator will open his eyes each day. What does it mean that the Creator will open his eyes? 

M. Laitman: Eyes, the eyes are the upper limit or boundary of how much I can attain, understand. Therefore, when I pray for the Creator to open my eyes, it means that I yearn for it – for the Creator to fill my eyes, which are my highest vessel.

Question (Turkiye 7): (08:50) In excerpt number 8, it talks about light in the vessel, and in both cases, it says that the light and the vessel are desires. So, the friend is asking, I heard in the past, that light is pleasure, and the vessel is a desire, so how does it work out? 

M. Laitman: Let it be as you understood it before: light and vessel are the desire of a person, and what fills it? That's how we can think about all those things, for the time being.

Question (Latin 11): (09:57) How can we feel that we are becoming similar to the Creator in the work in the Ten? 

M. Laitman: From the explanations of Kabbalists, we learn how we can connect, by what, with which qualities, desires, thoughts. And how we can awaken the Creator to the connection with us, so the connection between us would be like a vessel. Meaning, our inner state should draw the Creator's attention toward us. To take care of us, to fill us, to advance us, that's what we need.

Question (Tel Aviv 1): (12:48) A person is tasked with praying every day so that the Creator lights his eyes, so that he recognizes the importance of the Creator, so that he has fuel to exert with the intention to bestow. And in this, we must discern two discernments: One, to have a desire to bestow contentment upon his Maker, that this will be his only aspiration. And two, to do things with the aim that the actions will bring him a desire to do things in order to please the Creator. So, what is the difference between the desire described in the first item and the desire that comes after the actions in the second item? What's the difference? 

M. Laitman: There is a desire that comes from above and there is a desire that comes from below. So, this means that a person wants to serve the Creator, specifically, from his own desire so that the desire to bestow to the Creator will be born out of him. And that within this desire, he will give the desire, all of the thoughts and desires and everything that he has, he will give it to the Creator and agree to that. 

Question (Pt 31): (14:36) He writes that he needs to perform actions and great exertions to attain the Kli, the vessel. Now, to attain the light in the vessel, he has to go through the restriction, first, and we know that the restriction is a very grave thing. And so, how to correctly perform the restriction so that it's directed at the Creator and in order to receive the abundance from Him? 

M. Laitman: I didn't understand. Perhaps I didn't hear everything, so please repeat it. 

Student: He writes that one must work and toil extensively to obtain the light in the vessel.

M. Laitman: Yes?

Student: Now, in order to come to that – some of these exertions – I assume that that's the restriction, restricting his vessels of reception. So, how can you be in that restriction without it being a very bad, wrong, or grave matter, as he writes? 

M. Laitman: In order to have a connection between the person and the Creator, the Creator is ready for everything. And He just invites the person to relate to Him, to connect. But for us, in order to connect to the Creator, we need to make a few preparations for that. And this is why, here, there is a matter of adapting the light to the vessel, an adaptation, or matching between the vessels. An adaptation in the light so that it is passed on to our vessel, or to the vessel of the Creator, from our vessel. And therefore, we need to learn how to adapt our vessel to the Creator's vessels so that we will have a mutual connection between us. We will learn more about that. 

Question (PT 35 ): (18:00) We need to bestow contentment upon the Creator through our work in the Ten. And I heard that we need to weigh and evaluate what we have at our disposal for the purpose of giving him contentment. So, what does it mean that we have to evaluate or weigh what we have at our disposal? 

M. Laitman: The Creator always gives us a certain number of vessels or means to connect to him, to feel him. And we need to try to detect them, enter a mutual connection with them, to be with Him, with the Creator, in a complete connection and to advance in such a way. That's it.

Student: This complete, whole connection, how should it manifest in our Ten, in our feeling as a Ten? 

M. Laitman: In our feeling in a Ten, the complete connection should manifest in that I receive in all of my senses whatever I need in order to place or establish the connection that I have before me with the Creator. And advance in such a way until I reach a state where I feel Him in all of my vessels. In all of my thoughts and qualities, I feel how He is influencing me, bestowing to me, how He is connected with me. And this is how we advance.

Student: My vessels, to what extent do they depend on the collective vessel of the Ten? 

M. Laitman: My vessel is completely shared with all the vessels of my friends in the Ten. And this is by us making a common effort, by all of us, to connect with the Creator. By that, we attain the vessel, our sharing, in a complete manner; and the Creator fills this vessel, and he teaches us how to reach a complete connection. 

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (21:29) What is the shortest, most accurate action a person should take to bestow contentment upon the Creator? 

M. Laitman: The smallest action, the shortest, that each one is seemingly capable of reaching that is that all of us in the Ten connect to a certain degree that everyone is capable of reaching. And then out of the connection between us, we are drawn to the Creator in order to give Him a desire to fill us so that by that we will give him contentment. This is usually our work, meaning in every appeal of each one of us, we want to be connected between us in order to reach a matching to the Creator's attitude towards us so that we will have between us a common relation to Him.

Question (PT 29): (23:17) It's written here about two things: That it's the light of having the desire to bestow contentment upon the Maker; and the vessel, which is doing things with the aim that the actions will bring him to a desire to do things to please the Creator, light and vessel. Do we ask for these two things at the same time, or is there a certain order where we need to ask for the first and then the second? 

M. Laitman: It is according to what we are capable of. There are times for the creation of the vessels and there are times for drawing the lights. And both of these build for us a correct, tight, connection with the Creator. And therefore, we should try to be in this connection and constantly enlarge it. 

Question (MAK 11): (24:47) How can we become the Creator's partners? 

M. Laitman: By us wanting to use the right vessels, we can connect with the Creator. All in all, the wisdom of Kabbalah is the wisdom or the science of our connection with the Creator. And so, we need to adapt ourselves to Him in our actions, in our prayers, in our deeds, so that we will be able to connect between us. So that we have a vessel that is suitable for the Creator, as suitable as possible. And in this way, we will advance; this is what we study, actually, every day.

Question (W MAK 43): (26:17) How can a complete action be taken, internally, where there's no calculation, no reason. What's left in the action if there's no outcome that I can feel? 

M. Laitman: When we give birth to our children, we realize that they're not worthy of anything, they're not capable of doing anything. And we're obligated to support them, to educate them, fill them with knowledge, with food, with everything possible that we can give them, we want to give that to them; this is an instinct that exists in us. It is the same in the wisdom of Kabbalah, so long as we become worthy of being parents, meaning to beget new vessels and connections between them and raise them, maximally, as much as we're capable of, until the degree of connection with the Creator, we do it. And then we feel how the Creator is helping us and then our whole connection becomes only for Him. 

Question (W PT 38): (28:14) What is the first initial spiritual connection? What form does it take? 

M. Laitman: A connection with the upper Giver that a person attains inside of his connection with his friends.  

Question (W Rus): (28:50) The desire to want to bestow and the desire to bestow as it is in itself, are those two different vessels or is it the same thing? Within my desire to want to bestow, can the Creator be revealed there? 

M. Laitman: Yes. 

Student: And these are two similar things? 

M. Laitman: Yes, all of this will become clarified in us and will be more clear, more attainable.

Question (W Turkiye 8): (29:36) In the most difficult situations, what inner outcry should we have so that we can truly feel the greatness of the Creator? 

M. Laitman: In the most difficult states, we should feel where exactly the difficulty is. Is it in the desire or in the intention; with respect to the Creator or with respect to the created beings? And when we scrutinize all of these things, according to our degree – according to how much we are capable of it. Then bit by bit, by that, we scrutinize the connection between us. And from the connection between us, our connection with the Creator. This is how we reach the goal. 

Question (Latin 1): (31:01) In the beginning there, it is written that it is upon a person to pray each day that the Creator will open his eyes. The question is, what space do we need to clear out or empty out within our mind and heart so that the Creator opens our eyes?

M. Laitman: We want to reach a connection with the Creator at the height of the eyes, as we say. At eye's level means that I will see Him and He will completely fill all of my field of vision. This is the correct connection of a person with the Creator, this is how we will advance. If I feel the Creator in such a way, without any limitation in all of my vessels, then I will also be able to direct myself to Him accordingly. 

Question (W PT 23): (32:40) We heard that we need to learn how to adapt our vessel to the Creator's vessels, so that there is a mutual relationship between us. How to adapt our vessels to the Creator's vessels? 

M. Laitman: By wanting to get closer, to enter a connection between us and Him. And in such a way, we will reach the understanding of the connection, the essence of the connection between us. This is what we need to attain. 

Student: How does it happen in practice, how do we actually do it in the Ten? 

M. Laitman: In the Ten, this is actually all of the work in the Ten of each and every one of us. In every Ten we should be connected between us, between all the friends. And also connected with the Creator in such a way that eventually there will be no difference between how we connect between us and how we connect from us to the Creator. That is, that there will be an equivalence of the vessels that in such a way, we will feel no lowliness in the connection between us. And we will always have a wide open field for connection with the Creator. 

Question (W PT 8): (35:15) It's written that a person is tasked with praying every day for the Creator to open his eyes so he knows the importance and greatness of the Creator; so, it's a person's duty to seek the greatness of the Creator. The question is, recognizing the Creator's greatness, can that bring a person a feeling of very big debt to the Creator? 

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: So, how can he deal with that? How can he repay his debt to the Creator in the most direct way? 

M. Laitman: How he can do it – we can't ask because there's no limitation on his ability. But we need to want to be able to understand, of being felt, accepted inside his vessels without any limitations.

Student: But I don't understand how a person who has a debt to the Creator can repay his debt to the Creator, in what way? What does the Creator want, how do you repay it? 

M. Laitman: I don't think that I know what you're asking, but if a person understands what he has before him, from which vessels he was created, what is it exactly that he wants to attain, what contact does he have with the Creator? Out of that, he can also understand the form of his connection with the Creator, the kind of connection he has with the Creator. 

Question (W Ukraine 2): (37:29) We heard you say that we stop being children when we learn to give birth to new vessels in the connections between us. What does it mean to give birth to new vessels? 

M. Laitman: To feel that the connection with the Creator is born within us that did not exist previously. This is how we rise on the degrees of the ladder.

Question (W Latin 26): (38:26) The more we want to bestow upon the Creator, the more we feel small. How can we work with that feeling? 

M. Laitman: It's not about whether we're small or great. What's important – the importance we should have between us – is the importance of us wanting to attain the Creator together, and we're capable of that. And the Creator wants the connection with us, and is able to help us until we attain Him. 

Question (PT 27): (39:35) Now, the people of Israel are in a complicated situation right now. What is the most important thing that we, Bnei Baruch, can do to bestow contentment upon the Creator in the current situation? 

M. Laitman: We, in the present complicated state, need to scrutinize which desires, which thoughts, which vessels we can present to the Creator in order to be connected with Him all day and all night, and so that we will not become separated from Him after we reach some partial feeling or even a complete feeling. But rather Ein Sof, a state of infinity in the creation of the vessels by the Creator, and no end to the work from this side of our vessels in the states of the created being.

Question (W Europe): (41:15) If I feel my friends, if I start feeling my friends as if they are me – I don't feel I feel different from them – is that a sign that my vessel is similar to the Ketor if I feel them that way? 

M. Laitman: Yes, certainly your vessels will resemble the general vessel of the Ten, then by that he will rise to a higher degree.

Question (W Turkiye 7): (42:11) How to make it so that our desire to bestow conTentment upon the Creator will become our only desire? 

M. Laitman: We were born with a will to receive; this will to receive comes to us from the Creator's will to bestow. And therefore, as much as we will become incorporated in the Creator's desire to bestow, and we will want to have His feeling. By that we receive our vessels more, vessels of the will to receive. Check this, whether I got it right or maybe got confused. 

Question (Georgia): (44:13) What is more important, to describe the Creator or to see Him? For Him to match our description or what we see with our eyes? 

M. Laitman: I think it's the same thing. Sometimes there is a difference in the text, the way the author expresses himself. But to depict or to see, you can say it's the same thing in the wisdom of Kabbalah. 

Student: So, it follows that we don't discover the Creator, but rather we discover Him through our actions. 

M. Laitman: Okay, and? 

Student: Thank you very much. So, we have work to do, we have work to the extent that we can describe Him, to that extent we can act. 

M. Laitman: Yes, we just need to serve Him with a common vessel, a vessel that was created through the connection between you, and then everything will be okay.

Student: And outside of our circle of everything that's going on, let's say, in Israel, how can we influence that? Is there any way, any opportunity? 

M. Laitman: I cannot imagine to myself what can be corrected in those circles, or vessels, that right now are not involved. I think that this requires work or completion of the work on our side, and then we will feel precisely what we are missing. 

Question (W Latin 14): (46:41) You said a moment ago that we want to achieve a connection with the Creator on the highest degree, and there we will see him and feel how He fills everything. So, we receive these lessons and we experience, we feel the existence of the Creator, we feel Him. We feel how He dresses in flesh and blood and how we get close to Him. So, you say we now feel a connection that we haven't felt before, and I felt that I'm really in the state of a beast once upon a time. But now, well, I want to ask, how does this state expand and enlarge the vessels? And this state, does it allow us to enter into holiness, Kedusha? 

M. Laitman: Yes, without feeling all of these states, we cannot reach Kedusha, a connection with the Creator. We will be missing the Kli, where we feel. And so, this is why we need all of these vessels and to constantly try to sort them correctly.

Question (W Latin 1): (48:45) In our Ten, we have a great craving for bestowal, but we don't know how to replace our egoistic nature with the will to bestow. Also, what does it mean to be worthy of the Creator? How can we become righteous women? What does it mean to be righteous women acting for the Creator, working for the Creator? 

M. Laitman: Righteous women, it's a very high degree, and certainly I would have liked to see you in that way. You need to connect between you, like little children, little girls; and then, out of the attraction that you will feel between you, out of that, you will also reach the correct connection between you. And in the correct connection between you, you will no longer be limited – you will not be limited. This is what is needed. 

Question (Beer Sheva): (50:50) We are the will to receive, I am the will to receive, we were created as the will to receive. And at some stage, we are supposed to start bestowing contentment upon the Creator. It's like a change, a transformation in nature, starting to feel this love. At what point does this transition occur? 

M. Laitman: Which stage? 

Student: The stage in which we move from the will to receive, the natural will to receive, which we don't feel in our senses, that's the will to receive, pleasure for myself. When do we transition to loving the Creator, bestowing contentment upon Him, where suddenly the Creator also receives this quality of love, where He wants to receive contentment from what we do? 

M. Laitman: Yes?

Student: At what stage does this transition occur, in what quality, in what Sefira, if we're talking in the language of Kabbalah? 

M. Laitman: In the quality of bestowal and love. Love and bestowal. 

Student: And this is a transition to?

M. Laitman: Well, scrutinize it within you: Where can there be a deficiency for that, a vessel for that? And how can we reach that, pray for that. And then, for certain, we will attain it.

Student: And this is the quality of Bina? 

M. Laitman: No, I don't want to get into that, it will only cause confusion. 

Question (W Rehovot 1): (52:54) What causes a person to bestow contentment in every action, thought, intention? To bestow contentment upon the Creator without forgetting about it ever? 

M. Laitman: What helps the person? Only one thing helps the person, that after he builds his connection with his friends, he annuls before this connection completely. And he wants that inside this connection, now the next degree will come, how he will connect with the Creator. 

Student: How do we build up such collective fields, force fields, between us, so that we can truly receive fuel from Him to allow us to only want to give Him contentment? How do we build up that collective force? 

M. Laitman: Through connection between you – through the connection between you. 

Question (W Turkiye 7): (54:45) How to restrict pleasure for myself, in order to make more room for the desire to bestow? 

M. Laitman: There is nothing greater than the pleasure of bestowing upon the Creator, it's endless, this is Ein Sof. Let us try to depict it inside our vessels, as much as they are filled with this force, with the connection to it – the desire for it. And this is how we will advance. I think that in that we will finish the lesson. I want to tell you thank you very much, that certainly I feel pleasure from being with you. Even in your faces that I feel that I hardly moved far away from you. OK?

Reader: Summarize the lesson in the Ten.
