Part 1:

Rabash. Article No. 37, 1985. Who Testifies to a Person?

1.Rav’s Introduction: I have nothing to say. We need to read it and hear it. It’s a long article. We will try not to lose the main thread of the article and along with that we will try not to lose our connection with the friends and the most important thing that we need is how can I be concerned about all of us feeling the article, all of us. As it is written, “One who prays for his friend is rewarded first.” So please.

Reading Article (01:27) “It is written in The Zohar..”

2. R. (47:56) What is your impression?

S. There's a feeling that Rabash is taking us and it's going to like a dead each time. There could also be a lack, he’s not capable, he doesn’t have a Kli so he needs a deficiency for a deficiency, he’s not capable of that either, he has to come to the love of the created beings, he's not capable of that, and that's why he needs the greatness of the Creator which he does not have either, he needs to have sorrow from not having and he does not have that to. He’s just like a mouse that's trying to exit and he's not capable and he gets stumbled upon his own nature and each time and the solution each time is prayer, a prayer to be in prayer, a prayer where I don’t have prayer, and he will eventually put it to death himself, and self annulment, but in my feeling they're still in the end of feeling of dead end, meaning each time there's this hope that, oh here, this is some way, this is a solution, there's an environment and through the environment we can receive the greatness of the Creator, but not that either that's not enough either. Each time we go through quantity and quality by the efforts but you discover that even in that you are stuck in self-love that you're constantly stumbling upon.

3. R. (49:27) Other impressions?

S. A desire and a deficiency is not enough yet, we need complete understanding which is yet another layer, addition to the deficiency. What is the complete understanding?

R. I don't know but if this is how you ask then apparently the article puts a foundation to it.

S. To continue what our friend said, everything that we revolve around in the end I need to understand that I cannot do anything I must have the help of the Creator.

R. This is true, so what?

S. So this is already a solution. Why nevertheless is it so hard? If I reach the understanding that indeed I'm not able to do it, why is it so hard to ask?

R. That is our character. The ego does not want to subjugate itself to erase whatever it has within it. Anyone else?

4. R. (50:56) To continue what they said here, well at least in the article it was really felt that however, there is no choice but only love of friends. Meaning each time you come back, in the article it does not say it but, only if you build a different nature and work in a group then there is a chance for you to get out of your nature in which you were born, otherwise there's no chance. When Rabash wrote this article and you read it you were already working in the ten, right? You truly feel it even though he does not say it explicitly..

5. S. (51:47) The greatest impression is that Rabash went through all these states. Sometimes a person can feel that he’s going through it individually and this also connects you to the group because everybody goes through it and it makes you stronger and gives you a feeling of support.

R Yes.

6. S. (52:12) You can see here that a person in the matter of the prayer is a lot of work that he's talking with his own will to receive, that he’s scrutinizing within himself that he is exerting to exit and understand himself and why he's missing and this effort is what leads eventually to the ability to turn to the Creator. Meaning all these revolutions that we hear are showing us how Rabash is teaching us that his true lack can be expressed eventually to prayer, you have to go through many such stations and most of the work that a person has is just demand from himself all kinds, well the truth from himself, meaning he's demanding from himself to reach the truth. That is what I understand from this article.

R. Okay that is it. What do you have?

7. S. (53:28) I also wanted to add that he's talking here about the matter of the action and the matter of the invention and he says that a person needs to do a certain critique of himself. He talks about this observation, this introspection and he differentiates between doing an action and not between the difference of critiquing himself versus the white without the deficiency where you have to add to it, each time to add a scrutiny to it, where he is relative to the others and not what they are towards him or towards what I do, but how I come to love of others; that is my impression?

R. Yes, back there, the last one.

8. S. (54:18) The article is felt like an onion, that you were peeling the layers each time, you're going deeper into it. I think it is impossible from one reading that is straight like that, to enter to the depth of the article. But maybe in the ten, maybe here, we need to divide it into pieces in order to understand the inner meaning that Rabash is constantly wanting us to understand and enter. That is how my feeling is.

R. That is true. When we read it only once, the impression is without a direction, without depth;. this is just preparing the ground.

9. S. (55:21) Today, when we read together, it was easier for me to come back, when everytime I lost the direction, more than yesterday when I read it alone.

R. That is clear, that when we read it together there is an impression and a summary of the article in a different way; that is how we read it.

10. S. (55:53) A question for a week already: we are reading whole articles everyday like this and I'm feeling that I am simply missing in all these articles about ninety-five percent of what is happening in the articles. We're reading this before this to ourselves and I am reading this before sleep again and we're reading it here together and I don't know, it is like such an article that there is work for whole week not work for fifteen minutes that we read this article and then a half an hour we will be done with it and move to something else. I feel like we’re missing something in these articles.

R. Why, because your head is so small?

S. Yes, my head is small and sometimes the turns that Rabash does there, I am not there yet and I don’t understand exactly that turn there he is making and you have to talk about each one of those. I feel truly in the last few days that we're reading these articles and I feel like I'm just like skimming over this, scratching over the surface barely.

R. That is an unpleasant feeling.

S. It's not a question of pleasant, unpleasant, the question is: What's the purpose of what I'm doing? Let’s say we read a pretty long article, about fifty minutes, the impression for me was in the end for me, the last paragraph he wrote, where the fact that if I don't inscribe it on my bones, the actions of the wicked, that I'm actually like all the beasts. That specifically a person needs not to be scared, not to be afraid of having this black on the white inscribed in his bones, that is actually the work, that is the article, that is what he meant. I really don't know.

R. Okay, good, good.

11. R. (57:56) I'm happy that you have different impressions

12. S. (58:00) I also want to add that Rabash is really sharp. He's very precise, he goes over you like sandpaper and he sands you down and wears you down. That is the feeling in the article,. he is filing you down. You really helped me when you said in the beginning to try to think that we will all feel, that we will all feel the article, that we will feel it happening to us. So every time I came back to that string and that really helped me that guidance. It also helps I think because it is a long article, I open here some file next to it and I'm throwing all kinds of key sentences here that really touched me while we are reading.

R. That is good advice.

13. S. (59:04) I feel like Rabash, in these articles, is truly educating us how to place ourselves relative to the path, even though he's not talking about the society it is felt that it’s exactly how we need to aim and place ourselves each each time like this and it really works. And to the depth, beyond the words, beyond the words.

R. Good.

14. S. (59:42) There’s the feeling that he's also passing a lot of forces because he is like saying that it doesn’t matter what state you are going through right now, I've been through all that and I'm with you?

R. Yes, we can feel that.

15. S. (01:00:04) It was a true effort to not drift off and to keep focused on helping the friends, to keep yourself in a prayer and hearing everything through the Creator. You really search for the deficiencies for the friends and it was a true struggle to keep yourself reading and to only read it for the help of the friends, and to keep on searching to strengthen the friends so that they will see the deficiency to give, to find the light of faith.

R. Yes, yes, this is actually the right goal that I search: How through this article I can help the friends with whatever Rabash writes about. This is truly the true, correct goal, I would say the only one; if I focus on that, it is enough.

16. S. (01:01:20) In my feeling during the reading I also marked in the article here in order to get that force which is really the work to be in the path of Achishena [in haste]? Is that what we are doing if we want to go along the way to enter this work? Then he writes here about the pain the suffering that really defines how our work is to concentrate the summary of this group of people into work?

R. Yes, work for these people. How can I connect with friends in a way that is more practical, purposeful and helps everyone and to be together and be with everyone in order to push the goal.

S. It is also that this screen, that critique that I have to do myself, that is exactly the place of the work?

R. Yes, okay.

17. S. (01:02:39) Before we started you guided us before the reading to try to enter all together into this article. Of course when you try to hold yourself that way and you look at everything in a different way. Rabash also writes about this intention that you constantly need to examine. I wanted to ask, what does it mean that we are all together entering the article? Is it some process that Rabash wants to put us through or is it to have a common result?

R. Yes, we are entering a process and we are expecting a result that whatever you do it will influence all of us and it will gather us together. To extend we gather, all of us together, that is how the Creator will work on us.

S. He writes here about the need then decides for the prayer but he develops it through different details but how do we go along with him in the same process? to go forward and backward and forth and forward how can we get into this process?

R. It's impossible to explain that each one of us has to try it on himself and see what are the actions that he performs and what are the results of these actions just like you learn to do something in life you learn from your own mistakes and successes. It is the same here.

18. S. (01:04:40) It appears that we have the deficiency but we are not aware or maybe it does not interest us and that is why we are suffering. I'm asking, what do we need to do in order to reveal and suffer from not having the light right deficiency?

R. We need to constantly check ourselves towards the friends. Are we together with them in adhesion, meaning in the same thought in the same direction and this is what leads us ahead correctly. Is it clear?

19. S. (01:05:51) I get this impression that this artist gives very precise guidance here, almost mathematically, on how to attain the quality of bestowal? Truly step by step that you cannot avoid or neglect any of those steps but only in those degrees, that he tells us about only those steps that you can attain the quality of bestowal?

R. Thank you.

20.S. (01:06:20) How to understand the merit of the forefathers inside the Ten?

R. Through the previous degrees, the corrections that were already done by Kabbalists, we reach our own corrections today and we need to awaken the next corrections in line and in this way to carry out our stage on the way to the general correction of the whole of reality.

21. S. (01:07:33) What signs do we have to see that our faith is whole and that we are in pure bestowal?

R. The result of how much we feel that the Creator can shine in us, this is our examination.

22. S. (1:08:15) How can I help the friends during the reading despite fatigue rejection?

R. There is nothing you can do about it. We need to keep going and at least see it as advancement. As much as we are tired as much as we have a feeling of difficulty etc.. We should see these as the correct disturbances on the way. We are already in the final stages before Lishma, therefore, it should be clear that this brings us a feeling of fatigue.

23. S. (01:09:20) Is most of our work in efforts to act, to connect, to absorb the deficiency for friends and discover in us lacks, that we in us in prayer?

R. Yes, yes.

24. S. (01:09:45) My first impression is that the legs are revealed little by little. We think that we are on the surface of understanding then suddenly comes the lack over them so let's reveal gradually one by one accumulate, we understand very little beginning and then the deficiency gets deeper?

R. Okay, right.

25. S (01:10:50) I cannot come to pray without feeling real I can't attain what I want without praying but if I do not feel the pain for the vessel of bestowal, how can I ask for it how can I come to the pain specifically for that?

R. Ask that you will have the feeling about the lack of the feeling or wanting to feel the rest of bestowal, what we call a prayer before the prayer.

26. S. (01:11:46) There is a matter of agreeing about critique in the article, how does it help us to critique?

R. What did you say? We can't hear you well.

S. There is an agreement about a critique about it in every step along the way which helps to agree to discrete when the person does not have deficiency.

R. Okay, another time we'll hear you but not the way it is now.

27. S. (01:12:20) Continuing the impressions from friends really shows the person that he is lacking the deficiency in love of friends, that he has and then he does not have and he it says that he needs to know that he's lacking complete faith because when he has completed integrated he's the love nature and then the small one nullifies against that greater one. Therefore if he truly had great faith then he would nullify before the Creator and he would want to serve him without any reward so it connects to the guidance that you did at the beginning to think about the friend and put aside all the fact that I don't have a deficiency and I don't have deficiency for deficiency and how I work in the article this way but simply to work without any reward for the friends for them to help me to attain is that right?

R. Yes.
