1. Rav’s Introduction: We need to continue with this topic, how a person brings the good and evil inclination together and how he wages war between them and how to vex the evil inclination by placing the good inclination before it and how does it come out of collision between the two and in what way is the process. It's not a person that's doing it but the Creator, who is the conductor of this war, that's why it is called the war of the Creator with Amalek and Amalek is Al Menat LeKabel, is in order to receive in the Creator's order forces need to collide inside a person and wage war between them and then on top or from with this collision, gradually the Creator appears. The conditions for His revelation followed by the Creator Himself, meaning the good force, the force of connection, the force of love that rides over the evil inclination, separation and hate. That is how we advance towards the state where love covers all transgressions where the entire vessel that was shattered from the beginning of creation and this entire vessel, through its efforts that we learn about according to the articles of the Baal HaSulam and Rabash according to those efforts that we put in, when we activate the force of the Creator he fights evil inclination that he created the evil force.

Accordingly we see how He does it, as a result of that we grow up and we develop and we learn like a little ones looking at the grown up, looking at His actions and growing up as a result. Similar, we learn from this war, we arrange the resistance, the collision between the evil force and the good force, we learn how the Creator is doing it, then we get incorporated in it ourselves and we become like Him. This means that the Creator walks ahead of us on the path and we awaken Him and walk behind Him, we follow, there is a difference between good and bad that comes to us from the Creator which is upgraded evil inclination. I created the Torah as a spice because the light in it reforms and then both evil and the good inclination come to us from the Creator. The good inclination doesn't come to us directly from the Creator but only when the Creator works on the evil, that's why it's called I have created the evil inclination of creation, means existence out of absence which means something that didn't exist before. The evil inclination, the creation that Creator created intentionally in order to reveal that's good himself above the bad as the light excels from darkness.

Then He begins the work He gives us, He hands over the steering wheel, the reins, and it's up to us to manage this war to the extent the Creator is waiting and we understand that He is expecting us to awaken the evil force and the good force, and it is written a person should always vex the good inclination over the evil inclination. Accordingly we give the Creator a place to work because He is a war hero, he's waging the war itself we are unable to do it but what He gave us in all of creation, just like the little one pulls the grown-up and ask them to do something that he can't do himself, he tells the grown up I want this, I want that and the grown-ups, does it.

According to the same example, we have to bring ourselves to a state where we hate our evil inclination and we place ourselves in resistance, in opposition to it and we ask the Creator to take care of these things, to obliterate it, to remove it from the world and the Creator does many things in there. First of all He raises us just like the little one who asks the grown up to pick him up, and similarly the Creator picks up from the evil, this means that we rise from above from the will to receive we have a screen, and this is all the work of the upper one, with His light and then we are in His arms, we are above the evil. The evil cannot reach us, we are above it and later we even acquire the strength to manage this war through the Creator, when we work with the evil force in an opposite way, meaning He, it remains but it remains in the posterior of the actions it helps us, it helps us realize the actions against it and by that it becomes help against it and this way we begin to construct you systems of good and evil where evil itself, by our request through the raising of MAN, through the work we do between us. By that the evil eventually joins the good, this is the meaning of darkness will shine as light.

Therefore our work is to understand that the resistance between good and evil that we feel in each and every state, even in the still vegetative, and animate. Let alone between us people and also especially spirituality, spiritual forces, this resistance, this collision comes to us from the Creator. The Creator awakens us and He shows us the resistance between good and evil so we would begin to distinguish in Him, in the Creator various qualities, actions, discernments so we will be incorporated in it, that we would prefer those on top of all the opposite forces that we call evil because they are opposite to the Creator, it's all relative to the Creator, there's no good and evil in truth. There's no difference between one side and the other, rather because one belongs to the good who does good, the eternal side in creation and the other one was free was created in such until we're able to design these discernments to the Creator, correct discernments and advance correctly. In other words you can say that as much as we grow up, the more we grow up, the more we are interested in the collision between good and evil. We get accustomed to being in the middle between the two and it's written, a person will always vex the good inclination over the evil inclination, why?

Why, because specifically in the resistance between the two he is discovering the uppermost reality. He also discovers that both good, the evil and the collision between them, this setup comes from the Creator but to discover it, a person needs to discover this resistance, artificially, first by himself. It's fine that he scrutinizes, he seemingly builds just like we build as little children did, we build a house from blocks, we build the life of the grown-ups. Similarly, we artificially place the good and evil forces and we play with both until we grow up through this game and we begin to see that it is not blocks or balls or something that we are playing with but they are in fact forces of nature, where we enter true spiritual reality. In this clash, in the overcoming and connecting between them, we learn how to be a general in faith above reason, meaning to the extent to which the force bestowal and connection needs to always be higher needs to dominate the force of separation and disconnection and that's how we advance.

There are many things here and we will learn about it from the verses and we will try throughout, as much as possible, to be in it throughout the day and we'll need to be in it until the end of correction, accept the work will be more and more complex, more elevated and we will learn about it. Meaning we can understand that from practice from experience that we will do it by ourselves as it's written a man should always vex the good inclination over the evil inclination. If we feel that if we have certain moments of time in our lives it's a sign that we're missing out on this moment and we need to awaken the clash between the good and evil, and typically it needs to awaken the evil for the snake to come out of its hiding place and show himself. Then we'll need to turn to the Creator and ask Him to fight it, go to war with it, this is our work. Meaning our lives cannot be so calm and that we have nothing to do, we're on vacation seemingly, no we need to be coming, to being closer these two forces, the evil inclination and inclinations, the Creator and Amalek, in order to receive and in order to bestow as much as possible to bring them closer so that we get bigger blows as they clash.

Just like every explosive works on opposite qualities we will bring closer plus and minus and the greater they are the resistance between them creates the force of life for us because none of them has force in and of itself the good force the force of Bina, what's in it, what can it do? It's full of love and evil force can't do anything because it rejects everyone, repels them so it turns out that there is no way to reach the correct state unless we fix them, we agitate them, we, us with you did spot the inclination, we demand the Creator to fight with our evil inclination, we wish to erased it and exploit it, no, we need to bring the Creator to this war. We need to see that He does it to obligate Him, to have Him fight with the evil inclination that we will see our lives as the field the Creator has blessed, where our work is only to how to arrange things. Where we take the Creator like a little one who is taking the grown up and bringing Him to a state, a situation that He wants to sort out for Him that's how it needs to be. So let's take a few questions and then continue with the text.

2. S. (18:02) What angers the evil inclination more, physical actions like getting up to the lesson, going to the zoom meetings and so on or a prayer to the Creator?

R. The intention, that's the difference. You can do all sorts of physical and they'll be together with evil inclination, in line with it, that you will reveal no resistance from it, from the evil inclination but if you wish to bring the Creator into the force of connection, so only He will rule, only he will be revealed since it is only him and where you see Amalek in the place of the Creator, it's only in order to show you to points of the place where there is still a lack, a deficit, determining the eagerness of the Creator, so that anything is your inner attitude your intention.

S. So it turns out that the evil inclination is not exposed if we have no intentions to connect and reveal the Creator?

R. Correct, rather what is the benefit of creating the evil in pollination, inclination but I have created the spice because then the light in it will appear and reform it and the revelation of the correct evil inclination that is all the matter that appears to us as the good matter of creation that used to be negative, the force of light Creator was added to it became positive ii became the correct combination between this. Then you have this substance that includes good and evil and they both were towards the good. The evil also works towards the good, then you have a creation that is made up of upper ones and lower ones and they all work by acquiring the plan of connection from the Creator. The Creator is revealed as the motive, correction between good and evil and that's what we wish to reveal, both in the group and in general in all of reality, this is called the revelation of the Creator to the created beings in all the worlds.

3. S. (21:29) I heard the lesson twice as you told me yesterday and I have a problem, confusion. I don't understand the difference in this state that is called to awaken the left, according to the work we were doing a month ago, taking into consideration that under that circumstance we were working with the left, there were states very low, so right now I don't understand what is the difference between those two states, can you explain for us?

R. I don't know what you're asking about, I don't understand but let's wait a little bit. Typically if I don't understand something I put all these things aside and I write down my question and I continue to study with everyone with the rest of the students. I also have the same things and later after some time I come back to it, either it jumps at me by itself and I understand what was not clear or I come back and I begin to scrutinize with the things that I have scrutinized thus far so it should stop you. There are many things in life, also in your private life that you cannot solve right away but you keep going, what can you do that life keeps moving? If you know how not to forget, rather they get integrated into everything, improving perception of reality, let's learn about it in this way. We don't need to get an answer on the spot for everything, specifically not.

4. S. (23:59) What does it mean to vex the evil good evil over the evil inclination?

R. You're asking a complex question. It says a person should always have to vex the good inclination over the evil inclination and we talked about it yesterday, how do we vex over the good inclination, is there a difference? I cannot anger the Creator. I can only bring Him to a state where the evil inclination disturbs me from reaching correction of the Creator, the qualities of the Creator, so I need to show the Creator that I am trying to come closer to the qualities of bestowal and connection. That's why we have to start from the level of this world which is the imaginary world, it does not exist, the reality the only reality that exists is the spiritual reality, the Creator and qualities that are all in order to bestow, His force in our egoistic will to receive only appears to us that something exists that's why it's called the imaginary world. So what we need is to try and get to know the opposition between good and evil and try between us to awaken the good force although we don't have it, it's called a game.

That's why it's called a game and ask the Creator to grab Him by the hand like a little one that is holding a grown up and bring Him to correct it so that He will see it and do it, it is all him. We have to get accustomed to prayer, prayer and nothing else, prayer means that I grabbed the grown up by the hand and I'll bring him over and say I want this I want that and just as the little one asked the grown-ups in our world. We have to arrange ourselves like that in order to do this we need a group to bring Him to the reality that we are unable to sort by ourselves and we asked directly, of course He will do it because we are coming to Him from the reality that is revealed to us. Even though this reality is game all of it and when we bring Him to this game, He acts and from that we learn about from bigger things and we can do work of the bestowal, of faith above reason, when they want the Creator to arrange for a such things we come to it, we’re included in it. Then we begin to feel instead of a game, the real world, it's like going through let's say twenty years of our lives until we grow up and become adults.

S. When we discover the bad, we have to awaken the good force to correct it, right?

R. Yes, but in order to reveal the evil and the bad we also need the Creator. How do you discover it to be bad?

S. Yesterday we said that through connection you can awaken the left line and correct it, is that what it's about?

R. Yes, that too.

S. It's still not clear what it means that it corrects the bad. What should happen when it corrects it?

R. Let's see let's ask of Him and find out either He is doing it outside of us or He is doing it inside of us by correcting our qualities, our virtues and it is possible that what appears to us earlier as evil, evil it's actually even good. Let's see how these things get corrected.

5. S. (29:17) You talk about awakening the bad, what kind of bad do you mean exactly, the bad within me?

R. No, inside of me there is no evil, evil over which I can ask, it is the evil that interferes with the correction of the soul. All the rest of the evil is not evil, it is like kids that don't know how to play, sitting in their playpen and playing with the little ball, a rag, something. When we discover the truth it's when we cannot connect in the group but that is also not the true evil, we do it within our ego, within our will to receive but nevertheless, that's the same kind of evil inclination in us for which we can ask the Creator to correct it. In truth, we have to work in that as well and focused not so much on ridding myself of evil since without it I will not have an opportunity to turn to the Creator. I have to insure the evil remains and in some way shape or form so I will maintain the connection with the Creator, without Amalek there can be no MAN that fights it with the help of the Creator, that I grabbed hold of the Creator. Why, because there is evil so I hold on to the Creator to help me because I'm afraid of the evil. I want to come to the Creator with the evil together so the Creator will fight it and I will look on from the side, that’s how we need to understand this war. Only the Creator will finish it for me, that's how we advance, meaning there is a combination, a collection of relationships between us in the group, between egoistic desire the Creator created and is each time showing us between us in our plea to the Creator how we want it to happen. Generally speaking to obliterate Amalek means the intention to receive that would get inverted and become in order to bestow. It's not the evil in and of itself which is the will to receive, it's not evil the will to receive is the matter of creation and I need to protect it. I simply need to peel the shell from the will to receive, the intention in order to receive which is opposite the Creator and then the fruit that I reveal, the peeled fruit, is what I present, serve to the Creator.

S. When you talk about awakening the evil, do we need to focus to know where to dig, where to do this awakening, where is this evil, is there a place for it and you talk about it this way is it between us is it in the friend?

R. I feel that my heart cannot be with the friend’s part, by my certain, my desire certainly they are different from everyone but they have the same inclination towards the Creator since our heart will rejoice in Him and that's how we need to advance.

6. S. (33:59) A person feels good or bad, sometimes by highs and lows, what is our resistance here, what is the resistance?

R. For the most part its confusion, we don't know exactly what is good or what is evil, we waste time, we are not constantly concentrated fully where we see in our sights the forces of creation and through them the Creator, no that's our problem. Hence our work here during this time, is each shall help his friend to the extent we can awaken each other, set examples for one another and it's not necessarily through speaking, although it's important especially for beginners but more in our intentions, our thoughts, meaning in other words, in the heart. Our work has to be in the heart, I have to awaken my heart to awaken the heart of my friends and they would feel just how much we all depend on one another in attaining our eternal goal. So we would not come out of this life without eternal profit, spiritual profits without discovering the Creator, the force of love and bestowal between us at least to some extent. It is recommended to be drawn towards the end of correction as it is written, “Return children of Israel until all the way to the Lord your God.”

7. S. (36:29) What does it mean to react, to respond correctly?

R. If you prepare together your address to the Creator, it will typically be the correct address because the Creator will sometimes want to give you a place to make mistakes as you advance so you would learn from him and not some other special way. We are able to do it and the game is always about give and take, success and loss, he loses, he fails, this is the game. If I only win and never lose, then there's no action, no inner motivation, there is no feeling of inner anxiety without which I can't discover my triumphs, my successes. Meaning it has to be in the form of light and darkness, always success and failure. That's why throughout the entire path around the ladder of degrees until the end of correction we are always finding ourselves between two lines and we rise and fall and rise and fall but that is how we advance. Each time as a result, we acquire wisdom. None as wise as the experienced. Since by seeing a thing and its opposite he begins to resemble the Creator, he begins and he can perform the same action as ultimately, we rise above all of creation like the Creator, we understand him and this is called my sons have defeated me.

S. It's usually revealed personally, how do we shift from to a common request?

R. I don't think that the true will to receive appears individually personally, as it's written about it in different places, that it is revealed personally the meaning is nevertheless relative to the 10 because if it's not relative to our connection, it's not spiritual we need to understand that spirituality relative to the Creator, it is ten against one. So if we're not a ten, we don't even exist, the Creator counts in tens, therefore whatever I feel by myself it's called a beast, there's nothing to it but when I'm relative to the 10, this is already spiritual, that's the difference. I worry about myself, I make calculations about myself, all kinds of things about myself, I exist by myself and that's it, this is beastliness. But when it's spiritual I relative to the ten, this is spirituality. From these kind of scrutinies, these kind of connections, I can already turn to the Creator because He feels me and I can feel Him in return but only on the condition that I scrutinize the relationships between me and my 10 that's why it's so difficult for us because there lies the boundary between imaginary reality, virtual reality of this world and the true spiritual reality, from our current reality within reason and the upper reality which is above reason. There is no choice here, we have to agree with it and go for it otherwise we would not reach the realization of the wisdom of Kabbalah and will remain on the level of psychology and all kinds of things.

8. S. (41:50) The bad awakens when we plan to elevate the Creator but the bad is to criticize our own work, to examine it, that I'm not able to do during the day in respect to the relation in the 10?

R. The evil is revealed relative to the 10 but each and every one identifies or locates the evil in different ways. In a personal way he begins to ask for the 10s through the 10, Rabash writes a lot about it in his articles, all of his articles are mostly a connection to a person to his 10, he writes from that point.

9. S. (43:04) Now it seems to be a more refined work and we look at the intentions only, but is it something that we should be ready to do now in the sense to separate the intention from the action?

R. We don't have to distinguish intentions from actions because in spirituality intention is the action, through intention, scrutinizing the intention, and the prayer to the Creator. We activate the upper force, it works and corrects everything it is doing, all through the actions, it's not us. We merely prepare ourselves to demand it from him and if we demand correctly we activate the only force, the force of light, which is the only thing that works in reality and it does all the actions. Material teachings and other people that come to us, this is still before the spiritual action.

10. S. (44:46) What changes in our attitude towards the bad, when we manage to rise above it?

R. That I hate it as much as I can, through my connection with my friends in the 10, to the extent that the hatred for the bad that separates us and doesn't let us be as one man with one heart to reveal the Creator. The power of bestowal and in our common heart to the extent that we feel these things to the extent that I feel these things as necessary and I turn to the Creator on the behalf of the group. Not even on the behalf of the group but I already turned to Him because I myself want to discover this common heart of the group and the power of love and connection in it and with this I turned to the Creator that's what I ask from Him. This is already a correct prayer. This is called a prayer in public, a prayer for many.

S. Discover this state in the 10, we say that each one of us is responsible, he is responsible for what is happening in the 10. Can I then point to the 10 and say look, this is the state of the force that separates us, can I point to it?

R. A person who works correctly, it always seems to him like he is guilty of everything that is what happens, but it is good because it gives a support, a reason, let's put it this way, to turn to the Creator and an incentive to turn to the Creator.

11. S. (47:00) The evil is not in me, the resistance to connection is found in me and that's what I have to ask to correct. Now you're saying that I have to ask for the correction of the 10, meaning those are things that the Creator did only as a result of the shattering or is it something inside the will to receive that He created in us?

R. There is nothing more than a complete vessel which the Creator seemingly broke. It is ostensibly seemingly, it's not like it really happens, it's just from our prospective, He made it a broken vessel, it's like buying a puzzle for a child something to put together, it seems broken on purpose so the child will learn how to put together and know what is the complete thing.

S. I always had the inclination, the will to receive that raw material because we're different. It is like we have different elements and that's what separates us, so it's not about something different in the will to receive, something in me that resists connection relative to wholeness?

R. In each one there is a different will to receive from the others but if we want to bring them together to one goal they connect and complement each other and in this they become even more connected than prior to the shattering, that's the benefit from the shattering and the correction, when we come to a state that is called 600 times greater more powerful. Instead of the light of Nefesh in the garden of Eden, the soul prior to the breaking when we scrutinize all the contradictions, the conflicts between the pieces of the vessel and bring them all together then we get the light of NRNHY, we attain the Creator and there is no other way to do it except through breaking and by engaging in connection and discovering this upper light to the fullest. It never was like that, it is really a Godly invention and because of this in our world we have many such activities. It's like saying that there's no righteous man on earth that does good and does not sin. In spirituality and corporeality we always learn things by analysis and synthesis in 10. You have differentials and you have integrals in math and you have everything. We need one opposite the other to realize them in order to understand creation.

12. S. (50:51) In this new state my ego starts to use two forces negative and positive to grow towards the Creator. How is it possible that each friend from my ten starts to accept this connection as help to grow?

R. You said it very well. If we have to use our ego, we start from it and how do we divide the ego into bad and good, this is correct. By trying to play with the ego with the good and with the bad as if those two parts exist inside the ego, by this we come to the real state when the real good force and bad force are revealed one opposite the other, the Creator, the Amalek, the will to receive and the will to bestow, we begin to discover these two forces as reason and faith above reason. This is how we come to spiritual actions. We will see how we do this, I am not rushing to get into degrees and scrutinies gradually, I want all of you to go into these stages. Then we will discover where we are, it will be good. Believe me it will all be okay, just be patient and try to fill up every moment with vexing the evil inclination over the good inclination and vice-versa the good inclination over the evil inclination. Yesterday we said we had to awaken Amalek because we don't have it and that's why we're kind of calm, loose, nothing is happening, nothing is moving. If you want to move and awaken the bad force and awaken the good force, you come to a state where they collide and you begin to burn and boil with the collision between them. In this way start drawing the Creator into your reality as a necessity, because otherwise how would you cope with it? Those things were all created in us so we would need the Creator and be able to arrange his place between them, between the good inclination and the evil inclination. There is the Creator that seems like the good force that comes directly from the Creator and that seems like the good Creator, like a detour from behind, but there's the upper force when we ask, it will begin to arrange things and we have to scrutinize all those things and clarify them.

13. S. (54:15) How can we introduce new deficiency throughout the day without waiting for the Creator to awaken us, I feel that we need it more and more every time?

R. It is through the work between you the more you talk about it the more you become incorporated in one another in order to pray to the Creator to the extent that you pray and scrutinize the bad force, how much you really want to arrange it so that the Creator will defeat it not you yourselves but you want the Creator to defeat the evil force, for the Creator to control it because by this you give Him a place to be revealed.

14. S. (55:15) You said that there is no creation other than evil a moment ago, you said that inside of me the evil does not exist inside of me but the essence of creation is the will to receive which is evil so it feels like there is a contradiction here can you explain how these two things will work out reconcile?

R. We have many books and among all those books, I'm sure you heard the name Talmud, usually it's these many heavy books and one book one volume in those books is called Baba Metzia never mind the name. First of all in all those names they talk about Kabbalah, not a single word is written there if not for the scrutiny of the soul although it's written in all kinds of ways. So it says this, two are holding onto a Tallit, a Tallit is, how should I put it, it's what covers a person it's a prayer shawl. Two are holding this garment of a person, who are those two? The good inclination, and the bad inclination, the evil inclination, two are holding this Tallit, this person. One says he is all mine, the whole person is mine, the good inclination and the other one, the evil inclination says he is all mine and they are divided, means they are in dispute, now they scrutinize it, to whom does a person belong. To the good inclination or the evil inclination, this is where we are in our lives we have to get into this war, and this is how we have to bring up, rear ourselves into a human being into an Adam so we comprised of two, of both of them and when we choose we build ourselves as consisting of good and bad and out of this we become Adam we become men, it is written about this that they will be as God knowing good and evil, bit by bit we will become incorporated with the forces of connection, the forces of separation and we will position ourselves correctly against all of nature's forces opposite from all of nature’s forces and rise above nature. I'm just asking that each day when we end the lesson, we try to go over the lesson again until the next day because then the next day we will go through the next stage.

15. S. (59:07) True love in the 10, can you feel it when you connect the good and evil forces for the Creator?

R. Yes, progress not progress but the real power of the 10 is when the good and bad the next together because the good cannot grow unless through the bad after use coarseness, this is what gives us the intensity the power of the clarity of luminescence of the light in the vessel we learned it from the wisdom of itself when the coarseness in the vessel, the intensity the size of the will to receive, that wants to draw the light to itself. As it draws, it also arranges it in such a way that it also pushes it away rejects the intention to receive and switches it with the intention to bestow and uses the power of the light that came to it in order to receive, it inverts it to the intention to bestow and then we turn the bad to do good and the darkness to light. So it's impossible without wars, without vexing one another without being between those two forces and we need to arrange it to build it through the connection between us.

16. S. (01:00:51) The intention is our work and it is the inner work of each friend or you shall help his friend, we need to discuss it in the 10s this is the entire work?

R. It is the work of each one and then everyone together they help, everyone his friend.

17. S. (01:01:26) Do we first need to correct the intentions and desires of each friend inside himself before we come to the 10?

R. No, no, no you cannot do that, only through connection in the 10, when you correct in general your relationships to connection and through the disposition connection, you correct all the specific particular individual desires and intentions in each and every one, you don't pay attention to what happens inside of each and every one, no one can correct one's self and no one can correct others, you only correct the connection between you, it's something completely different. Everyone remains as he is, don't pay attention to it because it's a beast as it was born. We already know from experience in life that you cannot change a person, the way he is born his corporeal character will remain, one is burdening the others, the other is smart, another is a coward, each one is different. We don't correct these things. We correct only the connection between us, the bonding. The friend is like this and like that in all of his personal qualities, fine. As long as he connects to me and I to him, as long as we connect and not that and I don't need to correct him, I only need his connection to the group, to come with all of his negative things whatever he has. Anyone who is greater than his friend hi inclination is greater than his. Of course the people who come to Kabbalah are especially filled with desires, intentions, discernments, qualities, thoughts, you name it that are really bad. But what we correct is how we connect to others, not what we have inside.

Let's say I have this one machine and another machine. I need to create an interface between them, an adaptation, an adjustment, I don't fix one and then I fix the other, it doesn't matter. I have to create an adapter between them, a system of connection only. This is how we build it and from that system of connection where there are opposite forces contradiction forces precisely to the extent that they are contradicting and yet connect this is regarded as having over the coarseness, the restriction and the screen and reflected light and then the Creator is revealed to a great extent. We don't need to correct anyone. We only need to correct the connection between us and not mandate that for this, each one will have to be corrected, no, you have to change your attitude to others if you want to connect to them as you are and they as they are. What's important is the connection, so how do we know how to do this, the Creator will do it. We just have to ask him, our work is only the prayer, only the prayer. The fact that we are immersed in correcting ourselves is called a fool folds his hands on his chest and consumes, eats his own flesh, so only ask of the Creator, constantly turn to Him. In each of us there is Amalek the big evil inclination, doesn’t matter, the Creator will fix it. I just need to bring Him the evil because He created it and He will correct it.

18. S. (01:06:34) What's the difference between the Amalek that is revealed and the Amalek that is concealed that is awakened?

R. Well these are discernments, the one that is reviewed revealed when it's revealed it's clear around us what to do and I don't know if we should really awaken Amalek every time if it becomes revealed, then why do we need to awaken it we just need to work with what is revealed.

19. S. (01:07:37) If the friends already asked as much as they could for the friends and they said there's nothing more to ask, what does it show us? What's the advice you give?

R. If you already decided that you have nothing more with which to turn to the Creator, it is a sign that you are not in a process. You are not trying to connect more, trying to reveal more connections because we are in a state of a broken vessel and we have to have a constant disposition to unite the pieces of the broken vessel of Adam HaRishon. There for each of us must feel responsible for the connection of the entire vessel of Adam HaRishon on even all of humanity because my shadow exist in everyone and if I arrange myself organized myself correct myself then I correct everyone and then I see everyone as my eyes and then from my respected the world is corrected so the fact that you don't see what more there is to connect in the connection between you is a big problem. Then at least turn to the Creator, turn to the Creator and ask of Him, ask about not seeing the shattering, that you have nothing with which to turn to Him and you are asking Him to show you the corruptions between you. So you will suffer from their existence, it's called the revealing of the wicked and then you will have a reason to turn to the Creator, try, the important thing is to keep connecting to Him don't drop that there is a place in Him where every person is and every ten is. We have to be constantly present in that place in Him and not that we leave and that place remains empty.

20. S. (01:10:21) We have to vex the will to receive. Can we do that by just trying to connect? Is that all it takes to vex it like it's been vexing us? You keep telling us that we have to fix the will to receive if we are to vex the will to receive us our attempts at connection is that all it takes to vex the will to receive.

R. If we see contradictions between the will to receive and we'll in our lives and the Creator however we can imagine then of course we have spiritual work here we are searching by what we can turn to the Creator turning to the Creator is really our goal our only real action. If we connect to Him then we have some connection with spirituality even if we have not discovered it but if we try to connect to the Creator from within a ten and maintain the connection as much as possible then we are already connected to Him and we are already drawing on ourselves for reforming light and during that time we are already under the upper influence and abundance comes to us from above and corrects us, so as much as you can we should connect among us and turn to the Creator and it doesn't really matter the reason for it is real or imaginary.

Excerpt 1 (01:20:20 - 01:21:09)

21. R. In other words, to the extent of our resistance to spirituality we can see how much we truly are genuine inside when the evil inclination is revealed in us and we can use it to go forward and not that we surrender to the evil inclination and run away from spirituality. In other words, every time we have resistance to spirituality, a collision with spirituality, resistance to the group, hatred to the friends, rejection from everything that has to do with spirituality, it is a sign that even more evil inclination has emerged from within us. This has an invitation to correct it and through it connect to the group and to the Creator inside the group. If we organize, we have only to our operations from me when the evil inclination becomes angry, not wanting not understanding and not agreeing, that I have to specifically on top of it develop a prayer, the correct prayer through the ten to the Creator and by this I go more and more into spiritual degrees, and along the way the Creator, the eternal spiritual reality, is revealed to me. This is the only way that we had been.

22. S. (01:23:03) What is the difference between the evil inclination that gets angry and just awakens?

R. If it just wakes up it means nothing. We need something powerful, and evil inclination if you don't have anti, if you're not really angered by your situation it is not the evil inclination it is just laziness. You don't want, you don't care, it's indifference, you don't care about the purpose of creation, you don't care about anything, you get angry because you have been disturbed and pushed out of your rest. This is why we have to vex the evil inclination so that we have something contradicting from the purpose of creation, from the connection between us and in this way we will advance.

23. S. (01:24:06) Up until yesterday the work was to ask of the friends and today we're talking about vexing the evil inclination when you are already in connection, is this how we climb up the degrees?

R. If we want to walk on two legs and walk forward we don't need to wait until some force comes and wakes us up because most of the time during the day we are in a situation as if nothing awakens within us. But that wherever I am in the street, driving, at work, studying, at home I have to constantly try to have my evil inclination and my good inclination collide between them that I will always establish the good inclination over the evil inclination the Creator over the power of the evil, the power of creation and this is how I will constantly move forward.

S. Let's say I am asking for the friends that I raise above myself in the disturbances and I am trying to ask for them, previously a new state would come and things will change now we're saying I have to wake a certain disturbance by myself to rise above it?

R. Search what disturbs you from connecting even more to the group and to the Creator.

S. What does it mean to look for these disturbances?

R. That brings me to connection or what disturbs me from connection.

S. Afterwards in this situation I draw an addition?

R. Scrutinize these things and ask for correction for them.

S. What means to ask for correction?

R. To advance towards correction ... to connect with Him through them, everything we have learned before, you have suddenly forgotten it?

Excerpt 2 (01:26:53 - 01:28:00) twice

24. S. A friend is asking how can you awaken the evil and in what way are we looking to invert it?

R. We spoke about it all the time you have to look for what disrupts our connection, what stops us from connecting to the Creator, those things that disrupt and disturb us we have to see them as contradicting to spirituality and turn to the Creator to ask that he will turn this resistance to the right coarseness, the correct coarseness so there will be no gap between us. On the contrary, the coarseness between us will become a connection between us. What examples can I give you? Let's say, you and I are enemies, weapon, do you have a weapon, but when we connect we have a common weapon and this is called the hero among heroes makes his enemy his friend, the strongest makes his enemy his friend. So the resistance we had between us which has now become connection, the coarseness remains, but only the egoistic connection remains between us so in the connection between the Creator who is revealed only on top of a desire that comes from two opposite desires and connects. It is like the atom bomb when you connect two parts and in those two parts there the Creator is revealed when the contradiction works in the posterior of the spiritual degree it remains, but as supporting the coarseness.

25. S. (01:30:34) You say on one hand we need to get mad on the other hand we need to always work in happiness, how do we connect these two?

R. There is nothing contradictory here. I can be in gladness and also I should be angry. I'm in a state that I discovered the resistance, the contradiction, and that I am happy because I am building a bridge above. This bridge actually has to include all of the contradicting components within it and the more they are contradictive the more upper light is revealed.

26. S. (01:31:57) The contradictions that connect are they inside me or inside the ten?

R. Actually inside man, but to the extent that a person wants to connect to the ten.

27. S. (01:32:40 ) When the text gives us examples of a tendency towards the evil inclination, should we do this verbally, the way it is written here or should you speak to the Creator and ask of him?

R. I don't understand what he is asking.

S. In the text it says that you have to say to the evil inclination certain things Rabash is saying, when the text says this doesn't mean that I should actually do this and talk to the evil inclination in this way or should I ask from the Creator?

R. I said basically always be connected to the Creator and the more I scrutinized the evil inclination in me, in my connection to the group, the more I have a reason to turn to the Creator. This is why it is written about it: the final action is in the preliminary thought, the more I see correction before me and reasons for connections as much as I can scrutinize them in the present state.

28. S. (01:34:54 ) In the beginning of the morning lesson you recommended about the doubts that are revealed that patience is the best thing, how in the recognition of evil can we learn to find the reason and the quickest possible way?

R. Who told you we should ask that, what we should do is turn to the Creator with any evil that is revealed, evil is lack of connection, nothing else. Only lack of connection in all the parts of reality, but it is especially in our ten that I have to discover what in my ten stands in the way of being connected to such an extent that we will discover the Creator, the force of bestowal, the force of love completely which is between us. If I discovered that or how much we are not in the revelation of this force or in the prayer to reveal this force, already in connection with the Creator, if I'm not in these stages then turn to the Creator and ask for connection and correction.

29. S. (01:36:34) Why is a true connection so scary?

R. It is because you, within this real connection, you are disconnecting from your ego.

S. If we are completely connected does everyone lose his personality or not?

R. No one has a personality; a true personality is actually when we are connected and each one feels his place in the vessel of Adam, this is your true personality, and before that you are considered to be in a dream.

Excerpt 3 (01:37:32 - 01:41:08) twice

30. R. This excerpt is very important, try to go over it again during the day, that there is no choice specifically by the wars does the evil appear and in a way that we are obligated to get rid of it. This is something that we must discover, this evil between us and discover the hatred towards it that by this we can face it, cope with it, distance away with it and even correct and turn it into good. There is no evil and the good in the world, it was good and in the shattering it was inverse to something seemingly evil so that we will turn it back.

Excerpt 4 (01:42:12 - 01:44:09) twice

31. R. This is how it's built, this is how it's done.

Reader continues: “for this reason we must wage war....”

32. S. (01:45:02) He says we have to wage war that by this the evil will come out of hiding and fight the good, fighting what?

R. With a little bit of the evil that you do feel or maybe even not evil, maybe your indifference. That is called one shall help his friend.

S. Why by this will the evil come out of the hiding-place; can you get an example of what we're talking about here?

R. It is about a serpent that lies in certain hiding and you want to discover it in order to kill it, but you don't see where he is so how do you bring it out of its hiding?

S. Can I get an example in the ten how this happens to be practical, what does it mean to wage war with myself, the group?

R. With our laziness, our indifference, the things that fill our 24-hours usually, how much of the day am I am in awakening to connection and revelation of the Creator within the connection tell me? How many minutes a day? We have to fight this indifference, the coolness, this is why what is written about Amalek, how it cools Israel down on the way out of Egypt.

S. Yes, because we can hardly work at all, we can hardly sit in the lesson but the evil comes out hiding to fight the good inclination. What does this mean?

R. Yes, this is what we want, the serpent to come out of the hole wherever he is and to show himself so we can grab it and kill it, fight it until we can kill it.

S. So what does it mean to fight it until he kills it?

R. It means that we work on the intention to receive until we kill it, turning it in order to bestow.

S. We really have to kill it or uplift above it?

R. The serpent?

S. Yes.

R. Of course we should kill it, the intention not the action, the intention is what we should kill.

S. What is the work in the ten, me and my friends, what do we actually do?

R. When I come to the ten I try to cut off myself, all of my intentions in order to receive this means to make a covenant.

S. To annul myself before the friends?

R. Of course.

S. So the annulment is all the work?

R. Yes, I heard this from you twenty years ago as well.

S. It is very difficult.

R. So stop repeating it.

33. S. (01:49:04) Can we see the prayer of the many as a means to be above the speaking degree in the ten?

R. Above the degree of the speaking level we should not be, we should be at this speaking level. If we rise above our ego we reach the speaking level. If we are in our ego we are in our nature which is called being in the beastly degree, the degree of the animal.

34. S. (01:50:13) If I feel that my disturbances don’t come from the ten but from the corporeal world is this a result of wrong work?

R. It doesn't matter to me where these disturbances come from maybe it seems to me there from the corporeal world or from the ten or from me, it doesn't really matter as it is all seeming that this is the way the world is divided into external, internal, more internal or external this is how it seems to me basically it is all my vessel and this is why I should try ultimately to include them together in me in one intention to aim it at the Creator.

S. Is angering the evil inclination from trying to serve the Creator? Can it bring corporeal consequences like disease are problems that work?

R. Usually there is no connection with this corporeality as you say to the spiritual degree, not in a good way nor in a bad way. I'm speaking about our states because we don't yet control the general vessel and so if a person gets a certain disease or even if it is short-term or a serious one it is not connected you can't connect this to the spiritual work he is doing. Due to that he is healthy or God forbid that he is sick, no. This is a whole different calculation, a general one, like the pandemic for instance that everyone is part of it, some are sick, some are not, some more sick, this is the calculation in a higher degree that we are not yet there and we cannot affect these degrees. We can't yet change them but we may reach such connections between us and in the connections with the world vessel and humanity that we may be able to reach a state where we are all healthy and no pandemic will be revealed between us, between us meaning between the entire humanity. So long as there are problems in humanity we also will have problems because we are also in charge of the entire humanity.

35. S. (01:54:06) It turns out that when we come to some kind of agreement in the ten after difficult and complex scrutinies it is better than subjugating and agreeing?

R. Of course this is more powerful.

36. S. (01:54:36) How to reach a need in the war because I have a software running inside of bestowing in order to receive, so how to come to a need of a war?

R. The need for the war is something we have to reach a state where we warm each other up, we vex the evil inclination on the good inclination, the evil and the good inclination on the evil one in which the wars between them in order to advance. Without that you can't, okay.

Excerpt 4 (01:55:33 - 01:55:44)

37. R. You hear that, having the evil inclination is a great merit.

Reader continues “for then one can serve him precisely ....”

38. R. (01:56:03) Without the evil inclination you can't work in spirituality you can't do any work with the Creator only upon the evil inclination I have created the nation as opposed to Him, to help Him.

Reader continues “If one has not evil inclination once work has no merit....”

39. R. (01:56:53) This means some people don't have a big inclination they barely have it in corporeality, some are very big egoists, stubborn, that they can't receive the wisdom of Kabbalah, it is very difficult for them, it may be 30 or 40 years studying, reading the text and still it doesn't go into the heart, that it doesn't grab them. They try to do it but it doesn't work but still if they do continue they will reach very high degrees because the specifically anyone who is bigger than his friend his inclination is bigger this is why some friends they are blocked to all of the words of the wisdom of Kabbalah, that they perceive something, certain sentences that they go over and repeat them for years, and they can't leave, this person because if they do they separate themselves from spirituality and all they have is corporeality. On the other hand in spirituality compared to others they can talk already and feel things, but he is blocked as he is such a big evil inclination that he is incapable of working with.

It is holding him in his beast even though he has a few sentences from the wisdom of Kabbalah, or some small things it seems to everyone that he is lagging behind the ones who were studying about him, but still he keeps on going and we mustn't touch him. We have to give him room, to give him the opportunity to advance in his pace as we have such people between us and for everyone you shouldn't start looking at each one in ruin but we should look at everyone in a way that each and every one once we're waking everyone in general that they are advancing in his way and in his taste. Usually anyone who is greater than his friend his inclination is greater, ultimately they will reach very big corrections, very special ones however it will be after everyone, after the rest. He sees that at some point he passes the others using his will to receive and finally goes into his spiritual work, but it was very heavy, very blocked, a fool that he was and suddenly it opened soon. There is a verse, it's in the four sons that we discover, what we talked about in the Haggadah during Passover, the one that doesn't know how to ask, the fool so we have to understand that even these people that ultimately open up, they start obtaining creation from their internality from a deeper will to receive out of the internal system of creation and then they really reached very high degrees of attainment. About them it is written, "be careful the sons of the poor people ask from them Torah will come out."

Excerpt 5 read gain

40. S. (02:02:11) It says to overcome from the warmth of the evil inclination in order to continue working towards the Creator if a person has no evil inclination his work does not merit, why is overcoming called work?

R. Because our work is to turn the evil inclination into a good one, all the evil that the Creator created is in order for him to work in the good and right way as coarseness of the spiritual degree as the posterior of the spiritual degree this is our whole work. To turn evil into good.

41. S. (02:03:07) When we declare war on the evil inclination, what should we do with the ten? Should I look for shelter in the ten and ask my friends for support or should I annul myself and embrace my combat in a solitary way?

R. We need to annul ourselves and incorporate in the friends and in that way we work together and each and every one to read the Rabash articles about the group without that you won't be able to advance. What I hear from your questions is that you keep forgetting what he wrote there. Every time we need to repeat them because we change and every time we have to remind ourselves about the same rules that Rabash wrote, the form of connection in the 10 because without that form we cannot advance.

42. S. (02:04:18) How can I determine how high or where my evil inclination is?

R. To locate the egoistic desire we can only do in our connection in the 10. Sorry that I keep repeating the connection, but we have no other way. The place where the shattering took place is where we can reveal the shattering and that is what we can correct there and in the correction of the shattering we reach a state that we have to reveal the Creator that He will be revealed in the shattering as He prepared it for us and He will fix things. He has to unite the shattered parts into one and by that we can reveal Him. It is all scrutinized through the connection, obviously before the connection we can do all kinds of preparations between us in the ten in all kinds of ways. But in the end, the force of the shattering is revealed between us and that is what we have to exchange with the help of the Creator of course to the force of connection.

43. S. (02:06:09) What is not clear is the practice of the work in the 10, this new work during the day because we heard about those in Kotzk, I suppose this is not what you're talking about?

R. I didn't study about the Hassidim from Kotzk. I'm studying Rabash and this is what we are talking about.

S. What is new with the work with the evil inclination during the day? What's different from what we learn today?

R. We are continuing yesterday's work and in these days we are going to learn that we must awaken the evil inclination do take the serpent out of its hiding place in order to bring the upper force of the Creator upon it that the serpent will show us the force of the shattering in this connection of hatred and disconnection and that we need to awaken the good force. To ask the Creator to be revealed and correct.

S. If there a 10, the friends come to the lesson and to the meeting. What does it mean to vex the evil inclination between us as we don't feel this fight between us?

R. What disturbs us to connect in order to reveal the Creator, what is disturbing us? How do we discover our desires for spirituality? In a way that they become as one desire.

S. Should we talk about it?

R. Also talked about it, for now it is possible we won't really disturb one another.

44. S. (02:08:29) How does a Kabbalist use his evil inclination as he has a greater coarseness this is why he is evil inclination?

R. The evil inclination is used in order to awaken the Creator to help us deal with it and even to invert it into the good inclination. This is why we need the evil inclination as we can't discover the Creator to bring Him closer to us without the evil inclination.

S. You said the more we advance the more ego a person is added, the coarseness is added?

R. Yes.

45. S. (02:09:30) Almost every lesson I hear you saying go over the lesson during the day, when we go over the lesson does this help us vex the evil inclination?

R. Eventually yes, as this is our work that we want to do, if you repeat the lesson you will be incorporated with what was in the lesson in a more internal way and you will understand more what the lesson was about and your evil inclination will open more.

46. S. (02:10:20) For a long time every time I wanted to pray for the connection for the group and for the friends I get an immediate negative response as if I can't pray and if I am able I feel that I'm shaking or I am in pain, I do everything in my ten non-stop and nothing helps and there is no good sign it has been this way for more than a year please the aim me?

R. I am aiming you to turn to the ten and to the Creator, that the ten and the Creator will help you in this. What you feel as such a resistance, such inner feelings makes me happy because it is a sign that you have a strong desire and you are on the right path, but you have to take the next step.

S. (02:11:41) What is the difference between vexing the good inclination on the evil inclination and the opposite?

R. The difference is, you try to do it and see what you can. Obviously the evil inclination on the good inclination to anger to aggravated is easier, but the good upon the evil? Let’s ask, let’s try and ask of the Creator like the small one grabbing the adult by the hand and pulling him to help him. Try from those examples, work.

47. S. (02:12:24) You spoke about the four sons of the Torah, which son is us?

R. In each one of us we have all four sons and also in the group all four sons are revealed, all of Bnei Baruch, and all of the world, everyone that is in some kind of tendency to come out of Egypt, they already have those for discernment in each one and in all together. This is called that the Torah is speaking about the four sons, Torah is the force of correction, if someone or everyone together works to uplift above his ego the Torah bestows upon them and reveals those four phases in them called the four sons.

S. We can resemble a stage that we are one of these sons?

R. All of the four discernments are in each one like the 4 phases of coarseness.

Excerpt 6 (02:13:50 - 02:15:12)

48. R. Meaning we can’t turn to the Creator if we recognize our disturbances for spirituality, I can't fight against them myself, eventually I try and see it is impossible and then I have to turn to the Creator to ask Him that He will wage war against them. After the Creator wages war against them I already find the result of that war because I am present in this war and receive help from the Creator. Meaning to the extent that I come to the Creator and I awaken Him to wage war against my evil inclination, that I want the Creator to win, I am present in this war and I want the Creator to win this war and to that extent I get a result of this war and I get help from the Creator, and I am being Incorporated in the results of the war. Meaning the good inclination, the Creator is controlling the evil inclination, the Amalek, in order to receive and I am already receiving a result from it.

Excerpt 7 (02:17:00 - 02:18:22)

49. R. The perfection comes from the evil inclination, look what he is writing.

Reader continues

50. R. That is from the Zohar, it is nice, read it again.

Reads Excerpt 7 again

Excerpt 8 (02:18:27 - 02:20:35) Twice

Excerpt 9 (02:20:36 - 02:21:23)

51. R. That is why one will always aggravate the evil on the good and the good on the evil to wage war with them in order to reach peace, it is from the word completion that there is incorporation between the both of them that they become something new. That new thing is the revelation of spirituality to a person that without this new vessel of incorporation that there is no spirituality, that he can't recognize it.

52. S. (02:22:03 ) Yesterday when we started this subject it was as if I have no evil inclination either it's asleep and I don't identify it or I don't have it?

R. Where are you searching for it?

S. That's my question, I can't find it.

R. Did you ask your friends, maybe you lost your evil inclination, without the evil inclination you have nothing to do with the wisdom of Kabbalah as without it you are a beast, this is the difference between man and beast, man has an evil inclination.

S. I feel I have no way to add, advance.

R. Of course not, that's why it is written that he has an evil inclination to remember what they ask a person, that they asked the Creator, that if you don't have the evil inclination you have nothing to do you just live this life like an animal completely. So now are you concerned where you can find it?

S. Yes.

R. So where can you reveal it, it is written that man will always aggravate the evil and the good and wage war, so where do you find it?

S. I want to anger it. I can't find it.

R. So I guess it is speaking about people like you who are calm and don't know how to keep going and all of their advancement is from the war. So how can you?

S. Tell me how.

R. I will tell you and it is between the friends.

S. I certainly have an evil inclination?

R. If you don't feel it you don't, but where can you discover it? When you come and try to connect with the friends you discover whether you have it or not. If you don't have disturbances then keep connecting until the disturbances are revealed or maybe you're already in the end of correction. Some people tell me that they're already in the end of correction, already in the world of Ein Sof, that they don't even find the beginning of the evil inclination that's why they think they don't have it, so you have to try and be connected with the friends as the Kabbalists write in all heart and soul and then you will discover as much as you are not in that and you will start discovering the borders between you and the others and there in those borders, that is where the serpent is hiding. Then it will be clear to you what you need to do, you need to annul the separations and then you have work.

Excerpt 9 Again (02:25:19 - 02:26:10)

53. R. That is why you aggravate one on top of the other that you will need the Creator as the Creator is the middle line. From the Creator we get the good and the evil and then we need to aggravate them one upon the other so we will need something that can do even though they are opposite then we will need that middle line, the Creator to the extent we want Him to be revealed we adhere to Him and the middle line is revealed. This is how the Creator is revealed to the created beings.

Excerpt 9 again (02:26:55 - 02:27:47)

Excerpt 10 (02:27:48 - 02:28:30)

54. R. We should be happy that we reveal such states that we don't have an ability, to advance, to pray, nothing.

Reader continues: “It is as Baal HaSulam said about....” twice

55. R. (02:31:01) That is why we need in each and every state to see how we can reach the cry, the prayer and if not we must even add some darkness. Look what he writes. The descent, the realization of evil is what needs to cause us to come closer to the Creator, bad things are not bad things, the fact that we feel bad spiritually advances us and we need to give gratitude for them.

Excerpt 11 (02:31:40 - 02:32:32)

56. R. We went through all of the excerpts called to aggravate the good upon the evil, so thank you we need to repeat all of these excerpts throughout the day, each and every one when he can, if we can do it together, if we can speak about it even better but go through this excerpt. We use them very often in the wisdom of Kabbalah.
