1. Rav’s Introduction: We are speaking about raising one's self since each time when you records are revealed from the shattering, we feel ourselves falling and lacking in darkness, helplessness, lack of desire, motivation, drive to move forward, we are constantly on the lookout for a source of energy that will help us advance. Additionally the source of energy has to be qualitative so we would want to advance towards the form of bestowal of connection more and more. To have in that more of a feeling or a feeling of where we are, how much our distance to the Creator is determined by the measure of the connection between us which is the truth. Therefore to raise oneself means that we are rising above our ego that is separating us more and more, as an expression of the degrees of shattering we went through initially in our foundation in the vessel of Adam HaRishon that was shattered. We need specifically above the revelation of these broken records, we need to try to develop in us a tendency for connection. We have several degrees in that tendency for connection which the difference between them is both essential and qualitative. Each and every degree can be felt for us as something new that didn't exist before where I didn't think that this is we're coming closer to the Creator, this is correction.

Also this is in the qualitative state and also quantitatively not the degree but this is happening in but we have to work on the quality and the quantity until we discover more and more what more correctly we want but are unable to attain. Here we begin to discover more and more the extent to which we depend on the upper force. Where the deficiency we can somehow obtain by ourselves through the shattering also not exactly by ourselves but through the efforts we make where we discover the opposite state, how much we want but are incapable of getting it. From here we discover that the correction can only happen with the help of the upper force and we can't raise such a prayer to the Creator all at once. Since, until we are completely bow down and ready to lower ourselves, lower our heads and ask in every way possible for it to help us, to teach us what does it mean, connection? What does it mean bestowal? What does it mean, how shall we rise above our will to receive? All of those things we need to prepare and if we come to the Creator broken, students who are ready to accept everything, He is willing to give us, to teach us, then it will happen.

Therefore raising one's self means that I don't raise myself by myself but rather I raise a prayer and I beg the Creator to give me the strain, to pull me, and show me the way to push me forward, so on and so forth. Meaning although there is a constant search for the deficiency on my side with what do I turn to the Creator and how do I turn to Him and I start scrutinizing that deficiency, that MAN (prayer), that I need to raise. But in the end, the action itself comes from above, that's what we need to scrutinize. The more we think about it and we don't let go of our direction from us to the Creator, the more it is clarified for us through states of darkness and of darkness and light, falls and descents, joy and sadness, the feeling of strength and weakness, the combination of these states, yes and no. Eventually we discover the correct calculation, we learn how the Creator works, what does it mean that I have created the evil inclination in various ways, in the brain and the heart. What does it mean that there is a Torah as the spice where the light in it reforms? And how do we find ourselves between the revelation of bad and good and we ourselves discover the darkness and we ourselves invite the light. It all depends on us to the degree to which we don't let go and we keep moving forward. As we lean forward, we reach such states where we can't raise our hands by ourselves.

We can't come closer between us, on the contrary, we find states where we come closer and we find what we asked for and who to ask from. The important thing is to not be overly impressed by all those states and let them weaken us but accept them or so above reason. Meaning yes this all stems from the shattering, this was all prepared by the Creator, if I receive it from him it is neither good nor bad. Whether it is all great because these records are revealed in order to bring to the end of correction in this is how we need to relate to it. Of course it is easier said than done, we are highly impressionable because we are all of us are an expression of the eruption of inner emotions inside of us as a result of the upper light and the records. Nevertheless, as a result of the shattering of the vessel because of the distance between us to that extent we can support one another and help one another. We understand how the Creator has prepared the shattering for us without which we would not be able to come out of our state. Because in the 10 each one of us is going through different states than each shall help his friend and it can be in different states and support one another and ask and then from this mutual request, we get the correct demand, more and more precise. Whereas if the vessel didn't shatter we wouldn't be able to have been able to share this between us and reach a prayer.

So along the way, we discover how our preparation and the shattering and the distance between us in our egos where we can't stand ourselves, can't stand each other, can't stand the Creator, we have a lot of complaints about each and every state. Specifically, these bad things that are revealed, they give us flavors and discernments, very sharp discernments, pinpointed by which we can reveal the wealth of creation in this special form has to take in the end. Let's continue with our versus and advance towards it and this we have more and more to add. I am just saying again I'd like to reiterate the realization of what we discussed yesterday, has to be in the connection in the group, in the 10. Each one, according to the reactions they got yesterday, I heard more impressions of a person, individual, and it is recommended to hear how it is getting realized, how it is expressed in the 10, in the connection in the closeness between you in the 10 and towards the Creator.

2. S. (12:28) You said we are impressed by the revealing of records in all the states. What should we be impressed with if not this, maybe some inner states in the 10?

R. After the Creator reveals in us, each time new records we need to try above these records, each time to see ourselves moving closer towards connection between us the ever-growing connection. Where each moment is nothing if not the revelation of records. We feel it, we are aware of it that it doesn't matter because no moment is like the one before it but each moment new records are revealed. So the question is am I on the lookout every moment, am I aware of it, am I aware of it that new desires appear and I must realize these desires in the growing connection in the 10.

S. How is there a revealing record connected to the possibility to strengthen?

R. The record is revealed from the lack of connection in the 10, the upper light works on the 10 and reveals in it the current state. This current state is what we have to investigate and then explore and see, what can we add from this current state to our growing connection. Then we will realize the record correctly.

S. So it turns out that on the surface we work and we connect every day at the beginning of the morning?

R. Tell me this connection that you connect and talk. You need to think how you can be connected today more according to the current state compared to yesterday. The fact that you connect means nothing, you are not speaking of the emotion that is flying, how you are trying to uncover a more advanced deficiency and raise that to the Creator. That is what we are talking about, can you uncover today, something more that you are lacking in the connection between you in order to advance towards the Creator as compared to yesterday.

S. So you mean that it is a fire that should burn more than I'm thinking about the friends?

R. It has to be each time a more precise appeal to the Creator more than from everyone from the connection between us and more for the reason, we are appealing to him, what are we asking. Each time has to be more, more from all of us together and more towards our unified goal, so we don't just say it but rather we wish to scrutinize from the current state how we can ask more clearly and sharply compared to yesterday.

3. S. (16:40) In the beginning of your words you said we should bow our heads. Is there no other way to detour this bowing of the head?

R. No, the head means your egoistic thoughts, egoistic plans that I have to lower and then I can go above the head. This is called faith above reason. The head is the reason, the head is the thoughts of reception, how do I realize myself in what I am? Above reason means how do I do it the opposite way. So we discussed yesterday how we need to work in such a way that I work in bestowal. I try to be the bestower, I try to ask for strength to bestow. What I heard is that the line that influenced everyone was that a person expects his actions of bestowal will be the reward that he wants to bestow and to see that as the reward. This thing is also not so complete because it could be bestow in order to receive. You should think, check yourself, when you think about it, is it correct? Then drawn towards bestowal and then I also see the reward in it. It is pleasant to me, it fills me, there are discernments there as well and the more advanced, these discernments are within the framework of within order to receive, it is still not spirituality.

4. S. (19:30) How will my 10 feel that we have achieved holiness that He is one in his name as one?

R. This is by receiving this feeling that you are under the control of the Creator he is organizing you and he's filling you

5. S. (20:00) For a long time we have been talking about the records but there are basic things that I don't understand. I want to know what the record creates, why it is created and why a specific record is created.

R. This we do not know, this is the result of the shattering that took place in Adam HaRishon and as a result of the upper light that influences all of us and according to how much we advance. That we determine the kind of record that awakened in us and in all the tens and in each and every person accordingly, this calculation is very complex and we do not get into it. Our work right now for the time being is only to come close, to understand what is the correct realization of the record.

6. S. (21:21) When we were in the physical world we had a physical difficulty to keep the framework, the duties and the prayer would come out by itself. We were exhausted, how in the virtual world can we set a new threshold of adhesion that will be set if we don't get it?

R. Try to work on dissemination, on absorbing new friends. Dissemination can be for the sake of disseminating the wisdom of Kabbalah among the masses and it can be when you organize new groups, new forms of study, and for that you certainly need to speak to the management of the foundation and try to participate in it. There is a more willingness to do it in women compared to men, and we are lacking this very much. We advance together in each and every degree that needs to be revealed and will be divided into more participants, more compared to the previous one so it will be easier for us to go from one degree to another. So each one needs to be interested personally and also to awaken the people even if they won't be among us studying consistently but even if they only get interested a little bit in the purpose of creation. What there is, what will be what's happening in the world, why are we going through such states to help them advance towards the correct perception of reality and by that we will ease our path as well to a greater extent.

7. S. (23:54) Does awakening the Creator, is it enough for it to speak about the next state we want to speak about understanding where we are right now or is it enough that we meet to wait for an answer?

R. You have time during the day, a little bit of time to speak among yourself and stay after the lesson and talk. You need to decide what is the main thing, during that day, what is the topic you are thinking about. Each one during his free time and all of you together when you gather a few times a day, and that's how you will realize the lesson. Or the main thing will be how do we connect according to the lesson we heard on a level or in a style that is greater than how it was yesterday and that's how we will advance and quickly we are coming now to such states that I never expected them to be here. Truly the pace of advancement today is much more than it was 40, 30, 20, 10 years ago. When I started 40 years ago, it was completely unlike what we have today. So let us use this acceleration of the times and advance ourselves accordingly.

8. S. (26:13) The whole topic of all these articles is raising oneself and why do you actually ask explicitly not raising oneself but raising the prayer can you elaborate on that?

R. I don't think we need to raise ourselves like say in this world, we feel day by day how we are immersed more and more in our will to receive, how difficult it is for us to come closer to one another and how in spite of the actions we do towards connection they are still external. We don't feel internally that we have come to a connection to an emotional contact between the hearts. It cannot be unless the upper light will arrange this state; it is truly a miracle. Two broken pieces can come together and unite and heal together, mend the connection between them. That's why we are talking about revealing more and more that inclination towards connection and seeing the state of connection as good and seeing the state where we receive the connection as a reward. Although we discover each time together with that how far we are from the connection and that too should be as a reward because this is the revelation of evil and the evil, the wicked that are revealed, specifically in the revelation of the wicked ones we can advance towards the goal. That's what I mean you cannot approach correction except on two legs. We reveal the bad and then reveal the good, reveal greater distance between us and then greater closeness, darkness and light always go together as night and day we come in the complete 24 hours, each day includes darkness and light. So don't be impressed and you should get used to advancing in these two states and our craftsmanship is about combining these two states together. According to how capable we are of working on both of these states together. Together and not one time in this and one time in that, one time I'm crying and another time I'm laughing like a little child. No, we see in adults more mature they don't have such changes of states there are more settled and they are able to combine different states together we are the same and spirituality

9. S. (30:24) How can we come to overcome something we have not tasted before?

R. That's how we are also in our lives in our corporeal lives, we did not try something we did not know and now it appears in our knowledge, in our feelings, yes the same goes in spirituality. Except in spirituality it depends on how much we connect and how much we can come closer to one another and get incorporated in one another.

10. S. (30:20) You give us a certain explanation and at the end it says still this is not spiritual. Is there any way we can do an intention or an action that will be like, at the bottom of the level of spirituality, like a foot in the door of spirituality?

R. The things we are discussing now are truly at the bottom of the ladder, the beginning of the ladder, but they still don't bring us spiritual discernments but understand that we are talking about how we want to be in bestowal. We want to perform an action of bestowal and I need to try to make sure that it is not connected to me in any way shape or form and if I will make this action I will do it and feel like I succeeded. So my question is: is the success a spiritual one or still corporeal, this is the question. So I will be happy about doing an act of bestowal and I get a certain pleasure out of it and this is called bestowing in order to receive. This is still within the framework, the area of the framework of the will to receive although through it I already begin to approach bestowal. That is why I explain to you from where we are and as much as we are and we will try to perform such exercises and we will want to feel good from bestowing by that we will come closer to bestowal and be able to be even without any response, any reaction, any payment, any reward for our act of bestowal. This is already done by the reforming light, also now everything happens by the reforming light but then you will feel how much we are under the control of the upper force. Over us we will advance and you will see in a matter of days you wish to jump to such states and it is good I am happy that this is happening and you are ready for it. Let us try throughout the day to constantly dig such states and find out what does it mean to be a bestower and derive pleasure from that, what does it mean that I feel the friends and the world as my vessel? These are my 10 Sefirot and I feel pleasure from bringing them closer and presenting them to the Creator and this is what we need to demonstrate.

11. S. (35:19) You said before we have to come to a prayer that is more together, more towards the goal and we had a scrutiny in the 10 how we appeal to the Creator more sharply and we ran into a wall in that scrutiny. So how do we come to one, clear division?

R. Clarify the problem for me more.

S. We tried but every time, every day after the lesson, we put together a prayer for the Creator and before that we want to see that we have the same deficiency and we turn to him more sharply more keenly and each time we feel they each one has his own prayer in together it is just a collection of sentences how do we come to a prayer that is more one, together-- one, clear prayer to the Creator?

R. You have to try and do it by yourself and ask the Creator to the extent you discover that you were incapable, that is beautiful, that's what we need to come to, but you cannot simply ask the Creator how to arrange the connection between you before you feel how incapable you are of reaching the connection because your prayer will then be incomplete so you ask of the Creator for help. But before that, try to do it by yourself like a baby, learn from a baby, learn from a toddler how much it wants and he does and then he cries. He can't do it and then you help him and before that you shouldn't help him, he needs to have a deficiency for help. He needs to learn how these actions need to be need to appear in the world and need to work in this world, we do something and then we see that we can't do it and we can't succeed and the Creator did this on purpose so we would turn to Him and form a connection with Him otherwise I'll or why would you need Him? First we can say it in advance we need to talk to the Creator. The main thing is the connection with Him but there is no need for it, by trying to do it by ourselves we will develop the need to turn to the Creator. This is the meaning of the children of Israel sighed from the work and their groans rose up to the Creator, only in this way and then we receive help, an answer.

12. S. (38:25) There was a question concerning the records this is our work plan for a prayer it shows us are deficient see what does it contain the connection that existed and that has now revealed but we have to be directed to building the Creator to the common work, what does those records contain that going to help us in connecting in the 10 and also with relation to feelings we developed towards friends in the world?

R. We work according to the records that appear to us and aim us by revealing our deficiency towards what we need to do, our whole work becomes apparent through the revelation of the records; these are records of information, informative records that appear in us, and then we feel what we are lacking. We lack this and this and that and this is how we advance this is how we come closer. You're not getting much from speaking about being activated by the records but we are the whole world is being activated. Also the still vegetative and animate they develop through the records of everyone. The important thing is to work on connection and then we hasten the emergence of the new records

S. If it can awaken in us feelings of connection towards friend's little more or a little less?

R. I don't know what kind of records will be. I need to work on the connection. These are like this and these are like that and I don't want to decide the record that will reveal itself will determine the state. I don't want to start scrutinizing the pile of records in which according to which record I am going to work the next moment, I don't know, I can't know, I can never know, it belongs to the vessel of Adam HaRishon. None of us awakens because he is so great and successful or not. We are awakened because this general vessel has to reach the corrected state and that's why each one here awakens and is awakened in the style that he is awakened. Because it is necessary for the whole vessel. From there comes the need for their awakening of such records or others, that's why a person who lives in Honolulu may awaken to the wisdom of Kabbalah, to connection and one of us receives a burdening of the heart and so on and so forth. We don't know, we know that whatever is in your power within your hand to do, you should do, that is it. That's the rule, do what you can for a connection between us and towards the plea to the Creator.

13. S. (41:57) How can we come to the need to give more bestowal when our prayers for connection go unanswered?

R. We need to hear what Kabbalist are saying, each and every prayer is added to one great prayer that breaks through the barrier between us and the Creator and then it is heard but not all at once the prayer at one time. The prayer as has to grow stronger and its direction, it is not exactly clarified it has to be in more scrutinized, more directed towards the Creator it has to be organized throughout the prayer what are we asking for, what for how much are we connected for it, who do we wish to connect to, what do we wish to attain? With the prayer, you are scrutinizing your attitude towards creation towards the general correction of Adam HaRishon. That is why it can't be that it will be built in you and one time. On the contrary, the Creator places obstacles before us so we will scrutinize along the way to the correct prayer various discernments and in this way we will come to the state where we know exactly what are we asking for who are we asking from what do we need to receive and so on and so forth.

14. S. (44:03) To continue on that, a person cannot work without the reward, so what is the right reward towards a person towards the group towards all of reality?

R. We are discussing this right now, repeat the question.

S. What is the result that will be real, correct, because it seems like a person cannot work without a result so what is the right result, for what should one work, what results should one expect with result, to the individual root to the world?

R. The result that I expect to get is that we will feel that we are in one desire, in one heart as it is called and that we are opening this heart to the Creator and He arranges, organizes our common heart, our common desires together. In such a way that He can fill them with the power of bestowal and then we through this power of bestowal begin to work towards Him as He towards us.

15. S. (45:44) We speak about a more precise plea to the Creator that is always accompanied by resistance and lack of faith that are greater than the previous action?

R. No, no, there comes a time or a state where I am very pleased and that I have a connection with the Creator and that he answers or doesn't answer, it doesn't matter. Even just being directed towards Him, just thinking about Him is already a desirable state for me.

S. So I have no resistance, everything completely in the will to receive supports this action?

R. Yes.

S. This action that you do in bestowal you really feel it's correct, you take a little time to look at it and then you feel that it is right and you feel the Creator more seemingly. However with the act of reception you feel the filling right away and according to the level of filling is the level of the fall. So the question is in corporeality: when we fall you get a blow, you automatically keep your distance from it and you don't come near it. Why on the path are you capable of going back to this fulfillment every once in a while?
R. We have to keep going, I understand you have many grievances and it's not going to help you have to continue and scrutinize things along the way just like when you get on a new job that you can't know it right away, you work and work and work, there is none so wise as the experienced than then you start acquiring all kinds of discernments and otherwise you don't.

16. S. (48:01) Previously you said we are advancing quite a bit. What state are we close to?

R. What state are we close to? To reach a state where an act of bestowal between us will be to us desirable as a reward as the prize and we will begin to work in order to bestow. We will rise to such a state where giving bestowal will be sensed in me as reception as is sensed in me now.

S. It's okay to be there, with this expectation of this as a reward?

R. Yes, this is the reward, why is the reward not good, the goal, why not. I want to have a reward in that I will be able to bestow upon everyone and by this be close to the Creator that's what is my reward.

S. Yes, but you said that it can be to bestow in order to receive?

R. Yes along the way it will be like that bestowing in order to receive but right now you don't even have this.

S. Developing our ability to bestow?

R. We are going towards bestowal and along the way we will discover that it is pleasant for us to sometimes not always but sometimes be givers to each other, to the Creator. But it is still in the framework of the will to receive. When the will to receive gives this a good feeling in giving in bestowing it is like I'm a child towards the baby, it is still not above the will to receive. Let's continue and we will encounter it along the way, don't pull me forward because I will not go with you. I know how to advance.

S. There's something specific to focus on in order to realize it?

R. During the day you need to keep talking about what we spoke about in the morning.

17. S. (50:47) Do we need a clear work plan, something present?

R. Yes, it's clear that our whole process that we have to go through is predetermined. But how can you know it? When a child goes into first grade and he has all the ten or so years ahead of him, can he understand it, grasp it? No, so are we.

Excerpt 19 (51:51) Twice

18. R. (54:15) When we want to come to a state where we want to bestow but cannot, we then cry out. We see we are not advancing. On the other hand, we have no choice, we don’t give up. On one hand we can’t get out of Egypt, it is holding us within our will to receive as Pharaoh. On the other hand, we do want to escape from this control but we can’t. We are between those two forces, which are basically the Creator, both in the big will to receive and in the form to bestow, outside of Egypt. We are between these two forces and we cry out. We are not advancing in the spiritual work meaning towards connection and bestowal, which we are only now perhaps beginning to feel that it is in front of us. When we can’t come to the intention to bestow, specifically to bestow upon the Creator through the connection between us, and cry out and don’t advance, we are then rewarded with the Creator delivering us from Egypt, the will to receive. This is how it happens. This whole process is ahead of us. It should not be long or complicated, but should become clearer every day. We will scrutinize this more.

19. S. (56:30) It sounds like it is recommended to come to a state where you only wish to escape the path but you can’t.

R. Yes, I would like to escape, but I can't. I would also like to advance but I cannot. When I continue I feel that I am in between those two forces which are holding me. I then cry out from within the group and our common world Kli. We will feel the participation of the whole world Kli and the whole of humanity. Humanity cries out about all the problems, economic, health problems, everything. You name it. We will feel how they too are joining us. They can't feel problems other than on the corporeal level, but they will join us and we will be able to raise their records to the Creator and cry out as their representatives

S. What does it mean to truly bestow to the Creator?

R. It is to use the will to receive correctly. The will to receive itself is not flawed, but what is flawed is when I use it for my own sake instead of for the sake of others and the Creator.

S. But I don't know anything else, I only know this.

R. Fine, so you get to know a new method where you work for the sake of others, meaning all of humanity, the group, and the Creator.

S. My work changes from in order to receive?

R. All your work, all your current efforts are to receive for yourself and they will be in order to bestow upon others. This is called work above reason, above the will to receive. We should also work within the will to receive, but not for the sake of the desire but for others.

S. How not to work for the desires but for the benefit of the other?

R. It will come and you will feel it. I can't explain it

20. S. (59:32) How can you cry from not being able to bestow contentment to the Creator?

R. The fact that we might cry because we cannot bestow upon others you can't imagine? Let's say you want to help the friends, this is very important to you. Such vessels are developed in you where you care for them more than you care for yourself, so then you cry. Why? Because you cannot help them. Why? You are powerless to do it. You have no opportunity. Behind this stands the Creator and from bestowal upon others, you bestow upon Him.

S. So from the beginning?

R. Well, yes of course, it's written from the love of people to the love of the Creator.

21. S. (01:01:01) Who really sighs by the way of the work?

R. Those who have a clear goal in front of them and feel that they can't achieve it.

22. S. (01:01:30) How can we pray for something that we do not have a lack?

R. We need to speak among ourselves about what is the right deficiency. Even though we don't have this deficiency, we pray about not having a deficiency and we ask for this deficiency. It is called a prayer before a prayer; a deficiency before a deficiency.

Excerpt 20 (01:02:29) Twice

23. S. (01:05:58) How can we tell that we are bestowing correctly? What is this desired, corrected state?

R. The desirable state is to give ourselves to the treatment of the upper one, the Creator, and whatever He does, let Him do. We do not demand anything of Him, nothing. I don't demand anything from Him as if I obligate the Creator, ‘you have to do this or that for me’. I simply surrender to this upper force and believe that the Creator controls and arranges everything. There is one force that operates in all of creation and therefore I hand myself over according to the advice of Kabbalists. Whatever happens, happens. From today to tomorrow, I demand no changes. On the other hand, I should reveal the deficiency to have more and more forces of bestowal and advancement, etc. But on the other hand, even if I have nothing, I will agree to remain in that state. I do not exit the campaign. I agree to work like a servant, a slave of the Creator that doesn't receive anything besides the ability to keep being a slave. This is called reaching the exodus in Egypt. In Egypt we work for Pharaoh and then really exit and begin to be slaves, servants, of the Creator. We have to imagine how it happens and how we arrange ourselves. I have no question from here to the end of life. This is how I have to direct myself. If I direct myself in this way, the Creator begins to relate to me differently, meaning the upper light begins to influence me according to my quality. I am willing to be eternally like Him in all situations. So accordingly, He comes closer to me and shines on me. This is how I change. The quality when I tell Him that I don't demand anything, that quality is desiring mercy, the quality of Bina. It doesn't want anything for itself, it only wants to be able to bestow. This is how we advance.

S. What am I supposed to feel within the ten in this quality of bestowal?

R. That you are mutually connected to one another and there are no other desires among other than to attribute yourselves to the Creator and for the Creator to do with you whatever He wants, no matter what. This is the quality of Bina that is above Malchut, the quality of Faith which is above Malchut, above reason. According to the level of faith, to the extent that we raised ourselves above the will to receive, above Malchut, we can feel what it means to be in the quality of bestowal, in the upper world. We can't spoil anything, not in the upper world or in us, because we do not want anything. We don't mind staying this way. By this we acquire the quality of freedom. This is called being a free nation in our land, in our desire, an egoistic desire, but we acquire freedom from it. We rise above it to the level of Bina above Malchut.

24. S. (01:11:41) What is prayer and how can we understand it?

R. A prayer is a prayer, a plea, an appeal to the Creator from within the ten, from within the group. It awakens, in the upper degree, a deficiency to bestow upon the one who forms the prayer.

Excerpt 21 (01:12:46)

25. R. (01:14:02) In other words we measure the desire according to their breaks. To the extent that a person is in a descent, in a fall, in a recess or a break, if the break is short it is a sign that it is a strong desire. The breaks have to happen. There is nothing to be ashamed of. It doesn’t matter if we think that we are weak, helpless, or that we despair. It is written, ‘Do anything but leave’. I don't quit, I hang on to the friends and the friends hang on to me and I return. It is best to keep the breaks short, and the best way to prepare myself for them is by arranging for myself some sort of duty. This duty will connect me to dissemination, or to something in the work of the group. When I translate or print something it teaches me, certainly with beginners. Anything that I do in this way really keeps me. The people who engage in this are advancing in the safest way.

26. S. (01:15:58) What determines the time of the arrest and how do you shorten it?

R. Everything depends on the ten, that you help each other, that you have the power of mutual responsibility between each other, and to help each other. You can advance in such a way that you will barely feel that you have these breaks. Become more and more incorporated and you will advance and continue. We have all the opportunities from above to advance in such a way that you will advance with hardly any breaks. The breaks will also be part of the process of advancement.

27. S. (01:16:57) Would it be more helpful to recognize a cyclic occurrence of the breaks and plan for them instead of waiting to get to that point of rejection?

R. No. We don't know the quality of the break we will have, the quality of cooling, or distancing. We can't detect it because it's according to Reshimot that are revealed because of the breaking between us. There are new Reshimot every time so we can't say in advance the state of dissent, fall or remoteness our disconnection will be. We need only to strengthen the connection between us, to put ourselves into mechanical work as much as possible like translating or something else, maybe giving lessons to external groups of beginners. All kinds of things that we organize and disseminate outside of the ten helps us to maintain the ten. Then the breaks won't be long. This is what we see happening.

28. S. (01:19:21) Can we use fear from corporeal problems and troubles as motivation to work?

R. We should not think of these things, but to rise above them. Do not think about the corporeal problems because they are all results of spiritual problems. We should also try to rise above the spiritual problems, through our connection and bestowal. Today, in the last generation, we can advance from ascent to ascent. We can almost immediately see that a previous ascent is not an ascent, but a degree from which I can rise even higher.

29. S. (01:20:35) Should a state of joy come from a state where I overcome or should I rather aim to be in joy to overcome the states?

R. I want, together with the friends, to always come to a state where even though we see that we are not getting what we want, we are happy that we are together. The connection between us sweetens every single state that seems to us that we are not reaching spirituality because what is important for us is to achieve connection. Spirituality is revealed in the connection between us. We don’t need to see what we are receiving in the connection, but to realize how much our connection becomes more powerful.

Excerpt 22 (01:22:36) Twice

30. S. (01:26:03) How can we go from ascent to descent when the ten feels it is during the summary of its connection and there's a great desire with overcoming and we know that a descent will come for the sake of an ascent. How do we acquire the next vessels without falling?

R. That is a good and correct question. We already learned that if we achieve where we are now a connection between us that we can really call complete and are we connected to the extent, we are connected among us, are we also connected to the Creator. Are we truly in such mutual bestowing that we can't see what else there is to add or do we enjoy being in such a state, that we enjoy the situation itself? Are we enjoying the fact that we are on the way so enjoying the way means even though we haven't achieved what we have to achieve we are still happy that we are advancing on the way. We should distinguish here between the desirable and the existing, so if we are together and we talk about our situation then we can certainly detect that in our situation we have more to add. Try this and talk about it and you will see.

31. S. (01:28:09) The prayer each day we compose a prayer after the lesson as we read about it now and personally I feel that we are losing the edge of that prayer, the pain in it somehow dissolves. How do we come to a state in the ten, where this prayer will be the apex of the efforts, some deep yearning?

R. You speak very nicely but it is not that simple to put together a prayer each day every time more and more. I am happy to hear that you are working on it every day in the group and you are trying to put together a prayer but it will get harder and harder because you are advancing in the group with different people and it will get very difficult to find what else we need, where else and what more can we ask in demand, where else do we have places of connection between us as it will get more and more difficult. Until this also you will turn to the Creator and the Creator will give us a prayer and He will open our hearts and give us the prayer as it is also written this way. See that this deficiency comes from above, not from us and it is good that we are working according to the deficiency of the Creator, how did we demand of Him His deficiency? When we agree to accept His deficiency as ours then we are willing to work according to His deficiency just as we work for a boss when he tells us to do something and we do it. Likewise the deficiency that we want to discover from the Creator is Reshimot of the next state and it is only from Him this is good that we are now in the situation where we don't know what else to ask for as if the trivial things that we had before we asked and we got used to them. Now I want to know in the group what we can really be drawn to so good luck to you, demand this from Him. Then you will see as the Creator arranges the prayer in the heart of each and every one and you will feel that you have a common prayer.

32. S. (01:31:45) There are two kinds of approach in prayer, one is that the prayer has to be as scrutinized as possible directed and organized and tell the Creator exactly what is corrupted and ask Him to correct it and the other approach is that we are not even demanding anything but just to agree with the state, to subdue to be as slaves that we are not demanding anything just devoting ourselves to the upper correction, so how to combine the two?

R. You should continue, I can't even give you clear advice that would be understood to everyone, keep going and we will scrutinize it some more as I feel according to the general spirit that we have exhausted this lesson, we will go to the next.
