Increasing the Joy | Unity Day for Purim - March 23,2024

Lesson 1: The Joy of Unity

Reader: Well friends, hello, we are in a unity day for Purim, “Increasing Joy.” We'll start our first lesson now, its topic is joy, The Joy of Unity. You can find the study materials in the Congress website, convention.kli.one, and also in the Arvut system, in the study materials tab. Anyone who wants to ask a question here in the study hall is asked to put up his hand. Put it up high, so that the ushers responsible for the questions that are spread across the study hall will see you. Don't take your hand down until you receive the privilege to ask, and you'll get the microphone. Those who are in the Arvut system, are welcome to put up a question mark. So, Increasing the Joy for Purim. First lesson, The Joy of Unity, Rav, please, The Joy of Unity.

M. Laitman: (01:00) Unity itself is the act of joy because you feel the other, you connect to others, to everyone. You get more confidence, more of an inclination to unity among everyone, and accordingly, we draw from above the illumination that brings about joy. Joy, it is written about it, that it is an outcome of good deeds. Good deeds are connection. There is no other good deed. That is what we need to do. That is what the entire world needs. We see that from one day to the next, what is going on and truly, the world needs that, we need to try as much as possible to draw ourselves to connection and to joy; it is written.

Reader: (02:26) Excerpt 1. “From the beginning of Adar…”

M. Laitman: (03:40) Meaning, as much as we will be in joy and related to the Creator, we will be closer to Him. So, from that, we will start feeling in return the light of Purim. Meaning, the light of unity, the light of a holiday, the light of unity. We have no higher state in all the days of the year, as on Purim. It is the light of the end of correction that illuminates upon us and connects us, and it is capable of pulling us out of any state that we undergo. So, it all depends on our unity, on our connection, and joyfully, that we will rise above all the wicked, all the thoughts, all the calculations. The main thing is the joy. Whoever enters Adar increases joy, and increasing joy means that we connect around that one joy for everyone. Therefore, we, on this holiday, we leave behind all the calculations. We do not need to do anything but to bring joy to everyone. I am very happy that you came to our center and let us hope that we will reach, through the right line as it is written here, to wholeness, and in that state of wholeness, we will reach equivalence with the Creator. At least on the first degree with Him such that we will really feel within ourselves the expansion of this light of joy which is called Purim.

Student: (6:46) I look around, Bnei Baruch, led by you, by your vision, by your love, created something amazing. There are thousands of people sitting here, as well as around the world and they are yearning to reach connection and love. Can you tell us if we are on the right way, and if we are before a breakthrough or do we still have a lot to do?

M. Laitman: We only have one thing to do, connection, so that each one will give an example to the other. That we need to connect, we need to be closer in the inclinations of our hearts toward each other. That is what we need. I very much hope that we are not just drawn to that, but that we will also reach that. That we will have a true Purim, that we chose this state. Pur means a lot, and let us reach that, let us make this holiday together.

Student: (09:15) What does it mean, adhering to the blessed? What is this state of adhering to the blessed, what is that state of blessed? What is the state of the blessed that adheres to the blessed?

M. Laitman: Blessed is the Creator. It is truly the source of the blessing, the source of the correction to which we yearn, and from Him, we receive all of the forces, all the directions. But other than that there is this matter of the blessed adheres to the blessed. Where, if we want to be blessed, so we need to constantly detect how we come closer to the Creator, and in that direction, in that inclination, we will come to adhesion with Him. Then truly, the blessed adheres to the blessed. Let us hope that it will happen and quickly, truly we are on the path and we are not too far from it. We just need to still be in an effort.

Student: (11:37) I want to thank you for everything that you give us, I can testify that you are speaking the words of the Living God, and from here, I want to bring to everyone this hope, this yearning, this love between the friends. It doesn't just talk. I was rewarded with this revelation, this love. Don't lose your hope. He is here with us, He hears every word that comes out of our heart. We just need to come with a clean heart, with love, without any criticism, and with a yearning.

Student: (12:52) I was also rewarded with this joy. There's more, and I don't want to keep it for myself. I asked you once, because I was very excited, from the words of the Shechina is in the dust, that the Shechina only dwells in a place of joy. So, how can I be happy? I'm after a surgery on my spine. I can't feel my left foot, only some things. And so I asked you, well, what can I pretend that I'm happy? And you told me, if you'll do it with the intention to bestow happiness to the friends, then it is permitted. From that day on, when the camera shows Haifa 1, I am full of joy, and I'm telling you, dear friends, it became a second nature. L’Chaim, Bnei Baruch.

Reader: (14:14) Excerpt 2. “Those who want to walk…”

M. Laitman: (16:41) Meaning, we have a reason for joy. That we come closer to a state in which we will rise above the will to receive, and we will connect to the will to bestow, meaning to the Creator. And then we will receive all the Upper light that will bring us joy. That is how it is built in our vessels. So, whoever wants to reach true joy needs to reach a state where he is connected to friends and to the Creator, and from there he receives the light of joy that fills him.

Student: (17:41) From this excerpt, is there a difference between the joy when a person is in bestowal and the joy because he's not receiving for himself?

M. Laitman: Certainly, on every change, even the smallest that can possibly be in the matters of bestowal, there is a new light, a different light. Therefore, we need to learn how we differentiate those.

Student: (18:28) I'm grateful to Rav who directed me through the teachers because I felt not only what love is but how to be in joy in every situation. I'm also grateful to my teachers, and thanks to my Ten, to Italy 6 and to all their friends, the men and women in the Italian Kli, and also to the world Kli, who gave me an example of how to pray, how to ask for the friends. I coped with three illnesses, two of them were very aggressive, but I went through them thanks to their prayers. I wanted to say that, then came the moment when I had to give up on the morning lessons, and from the moment that I came to Bnei Baruch, I never missed a single morning lesson. The Creator told me that, now you have to sleep at night and I forced myself to obey this. I have to say with great pain that because the friends in the lesson are a great example of love and Arvut. That, today I'm happy every day, I have even more than joy. I don't know how to say this; I met love, I'm in the most beautiful environment in the world. And for two months already, I've been living here in Israel, and I lack nothing. This is my condition; I want to serve all friends.

Student: (22:24) How is it possible to differentiate between corporeal and spiritual joy?

M. Laitman: It depends on the filling in the vessels, what vessels are being filled? With corporeal joy, you fill up the vessels of reception. With spiritual joy, you discover and fill vessels of bestowal, and the difference between them, it is between heavens and earth, truly so. To receive spiritual pleasure, we feel ourselves that we are above time, place, movement, that we are in a feeling where there is no time, no place, no motion, no change. That is, we are simply above matter, above our world, above ourselves, our corporeal selves, and this is what gives us huge forces to continue onward towards the Creator. This is what spiritual joy gives us. Let us hope that we will all reach that.

Student: (24:20) I always have something that grasps me, what does it mean to truly work with joy in the Ten? What can make me joyful, what can make me happy to work in the Ten?

M. Laitman: Every moment that I'm in the Ten, I feel that I am increasing the connection. More and more in this manner, in that manner, I constantly feel myself as advancing, advancing towards a state where we will all be in one heart, and according to how much I advance towards this one heart, I feel myself happier, more joyous, feeling more the Creator, the entire general world Kli, which is truly above our world. This is something special, this is what we should try to reach as quickly as possible.

Student: (25:36) We are in a congress and we've been through many congresses. This congress is not just another one, it's an outcome of all the congresses we've been through until today.

M. Laitman: That is right.

Student: Each and every congress brings us to the next one, which is a point of an opportunity, as I see it. How do we not miss this point? We now have a few hours together to be in joy, to be in connection, to find some inner point so that we can succeed to hold on to. That is what the Creator invites us to do. How do we not miss out on that?

M. Laitman: We are always in a process of connection between us and advancement from the current point to the next point and this is how it continues until the end of correction. According to all of our sources, it is guaranteed for us that we will get there, and I also see it in such a way. So, we should be happy for being on the path, that you have a goal in your life, which is higher than everything, and it elevates you to the pinnacle of all reality. And so we will reach a state where He is awaiting us. You have no idea how fortunate you are, but in truth, each and everyone has something which is registered for his soul. That he is one out of millions, billions of people who do not have that in their life. They start life and they finish life as though nothing has happened to them, and you, along with this life, are also going up the higher degrees, from degree to degree, the degrees of the ladder. This is why we should be happy and joyous, especially on this holiday of Purim, which symbolizes all of our sins. I am very happy that from one day to the next, more people come and we become more incorporated together, and we understand better how much we are truly fortunate.

Student: (29:37) I am certain that everyone feels very lucky to be here on this day, that we have this opportunity to be happy together, to strengthen together and to open our heart like there's never been before. However, I also have sadness and fear of what's going on around us. How, through around this nuclear force we have here, how can we give this Ohr Hozer, this reflected light to the Creator and to the whole world, how do we connect to this Unity Day and let this light just explode outwardly? How do we do that?

M. Laitman: Only through connection. This is what we have within us, and we have to take care of all of these sparks that exist in us that are drawn to connection between us, and this is how we will reach this upper point where we are connected between us and the Creator is between us. It's not far away, it is not far away. We need to try, and we will be in that and besides us, there are many other people who want to reach that, who are drawn to it. Maybe not exactly on our line, so with various inclinations, but nevertheless, we are on the way to connection. A connection in which the final Purim is revealed. Yes, there?

Student: (31:56) This is the question. We say that there is joy and we also discussed love. Joy somewhat is more understood in terms of feeling it and how we can express it, like expressing a good mood, but love, it's very hard to detect and to express. So, the question is, what is the difference between joy and love, and what is the path to joy and to love?

M. Laitman: Joy is a state in which we exist, let's say, and love is a force that pulls us to a certain place, and so we need to be in that as well as in this, meaning from one moment to the next, we should be in joy until we reach complete love. I hope very much that we are on the way, meaning it is guaranteed, but that we will all reach that and embrace a connection such that we will feel one heart in which we are all together in warmth and unity and we are embracing the Creator.

Student: (33:48) In the excerpt that we read, in order to be in joy we need to think only about the friends and nothing for myself. Sometimes I heard you say that it's possible to ask for the whole Ten and me within them. So, what is more correct, because when I ask for them then it's different than the feeling of asking for everyone together including myself?

M. Laitman: You should feel both this and that, and constantly try that they would come together. Good luck.

Student: (34:35) It's always surprising and it's always a very happy moment that the inspiration that comes from the friends when you see them as greater, it's a great joy and then it brings you to a joy in terms of bringing you to who gives me that feeling of joy. How do we come from that joy of the inspiration from the greatness of the friends where we have so many different kinds, many different friends? So, how can we say from that, what do we need as a connection, as a result of that? What is this connection that we so much yearn for, to reach from this inspiration, from the greatness of the friends and from who gives us that feeling?

M. Laitman: The connection that we wish to reach, it is a special state. When a person feels that he is becoming zero, nothing, he disappears between the friends, he dilutes himself. This is simply how it happens, and then according to how much he is, let's say, becoming lost, he disappears, he begins to feel how much he is coming out of the corporeal world and entering the spiritual world, and there he receives a new desire, a new feeling, an orientation and it is all already spiritual, and then he feels that the center of this is the Upper force, the Creator who is waiting for him, anticipating. So, this is actually, these are the states that we have to reach. We should try to enter into them and advance; fly.

Student: (37:16) There is a lot of pleasure in this joy to be with friends, to feel that we have a path and a goal in life and the friends also give a lot of joy to a person and the question is: How can we hold onto the intention in all this joy, because I feel in this whole event that everyone is holding on to that joy within themselves and they all feel it in their heart and it's going to really break through and reach everyone? But how, with this great pleasure that is here between us, how do we hold on to the intention and not take it for ourselves?

M. Laitman: It's through connection. It would be good if now we could sing some song.

Song: (38:23)

Question (Turkiye 7): (42:44) A person can cry out from sadness, from sorrow but how can he cry out from joy?

M. Laitman: But within the joy he also has a question: Is the whole world with him or does he want to spread this joy all over the world? Then, other than joy he also has sorrow and that's why he can bestow in both this and that. The joy expands and spreads on the surface very fast, sorrow spreads slowly. We also see it from life, that making the other happy is possible, but transmitting your sorrow is a big problem. So, let's share and spread our joy and from that joy we'll also understand that there is some degree of sorrow. Otherwise, we wouldn't feel any joy also, so it's impossible without it. So, let's hope we'll achieve connection in both the right line and the left line and make a direct connection to each other.

Question (Women Turkiye 7): (45:22) I'm very happy to be with the friends, but the Creator is not yet there. What else do we need to do in order to crown the Creator upon us?

M. Laitman: Just to connect stronger and stronger between us, and we will cry to the Creator, then we'll succeed, we will succeed. If it comes from the connection, the more diverse that connection is, the greater the success.

Question (Turkiye 2): (46:28) How to show friends the special opportunity for joy there is in Purim in the best possible way?

M. Laitman: Only to enter their heart, into their hearts. We should also drink, you know, until you don’t know. Until you don’t know, is a state, we have to achieve it.

Reader: We have that commitment in the schedule for later.

M. Laitman: Good, and so then we can feel a lot of it, and quickly from the true joy.

Question (Latin 4): (47:41) Why is the joy so deep with such deep love, and also connected to the ego? What is the secret of this joy, why is it so mysterious?

M. Laitman: It is not mysterious, it is just hard for us to perceive it, to grasp it. From the good side or the bad side, individually or collectively. Joy is something that, as if, has no Kli, and that's why it is such a problem. Purim is essentially the vessel for true joy, so we have to have the inclination towards connection, this lot, the lot of Purim. Our world is quite successful in moving towards that. I hope that we will work correctly, and we will have a happy Purim holiday; we'll feel joy in the heart.

Reader: (49:29) Excerpt 3. ”We should discern concerning the…”

M. Laitman: (51:02) Meaning, increasing joy in being drawn to connection, to unity between us and the Creator, and when we get to that, then we feel true joy, alright?

Reader: (51:18) Excerpt 4. “According to what is written,...”

Student: (53:15) For every question that we ask, it's clear to us that the answer will always be connection. It's also clear to me that this matter of connection, I can ask from now until tomorrow, where is connection, how do we do connection, what do we need to do? You answering us is amazing, but I think that in my feeling, we need to attain it ourselves, and it will only come from the scrutinies in the Ten and the Kli because I really feel that there's a certain real understanding or real so-called attainment, if you call it that, that comes from this connection in the Ten. The question, my request is, can we simply concentrate once and for all to that matter of connection and deepen in it, pray for it, all of us together, and for us together to draw the Reforming Light because this is where the root is, in this connection, the demand for this. I don't know what connection is, I don't know what it is, for that place to come from our common outcry, can we do that?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: Maybe we'll do it now, and simply concentrate together in the Ten so that the whole world will now ask, what is this thing that's called connection? And we will see that we don't know, and from this place, we will raise one common prayer.

M. Laitman: Let us do it then, let us imagine to ourselves that if our world would be connected, how wonderful would that be?

Student: Sorry, just to add something, it's not that I want to depict it alone. I want to ask in the Ten and to scrutinize it between us. Something happens when we scrutinize it between us. Someone adds, and another adds, and a power is created, and something from within. I can sit and imagine what is a connected world but I want to scrutinize it. I don't know how to explain that feeling that's happening when we scrutinize something in the Ten, and we come to something together, that is, actually, raising from within it the prayer, the demand. I hope that it's clear.

M. Laitman: Very clear. What you say is very beautiful, and correct, and clear.

Student: (56:06) Hello everyone. At the end of that excerpt, it's written that he can walk all day in the world of gladness and joy.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: Do we connect between spiritual joy and the corporeal reality?

M. Laitman: The corporeal reality, or spiritual reality is ultimately becoming revealed in our vessels. That, we feel both this and that, and therefore, by corporeal actions, we can awaken spiritual actions, and there will be a connection between them.

Student: (57:05) How is joy created when we are in scrutiny, in a workshop? What is it created from, that joy?

M. Laitman: As a result of connection, as a result of the connection. When a person comes out of himself a little bit and enters the friend, and the friend enters him, and so on and so forth, the more connections there are between them, the more they discover a common shared space between them, and on that space shines the Upper light, and that brings us joy and confidence and other such phenomena.

Student: Can we do this purposefully, to intentionally receive this result?

M. Laitman: Of course. Of course.

Student: Meaning, if we are in the right intention, we can uplift the joy between us through what you just said, now?

M. Laitman: Yes, yes, yes, and we do it. We do it even though our intentions are very small and not yet connected but still, bit by bit, it rises. It rises and rises.

Student: (59:04) I can ask a lot of questions but in addition to my spine, I'm also dyslexic, and I always put before my eyes the final goal, and it was written before me that the end of correction is love thy friend as thyself, that's how my Rav said it. Every day, I ask myself that question: How much have you advanced in love of friends? Is that correct?

M. Laitman: You are asking, I don't know.

Student: Love thy friend as thyself, is that the end of correction?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: (01:00:01) My question is whether in the joy, there's an element that's above reason, of work above reason in joy or simple joy, as is?

M. Laitman: There is no vessel for joy, in truth, there is no vessel for joy. Tell me, where is that vessel? Hesed, Gevura, Tifferet, Netzah, Hod, Yesod, Malchut, where is the vessel of joy?

Student: So it leaves the joy of something that is in corporeality? If it has no spiritual vessel, then it's simple joy, it's just like that I'm happy now?

M. Laitman: No. Joy is the outcome of good deeds, that is the definition. We are talking about spiritual joy, it is the outcome of good deeds.

Student: Meaning the connection between people, the correct connection between people will bring this joy?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: It’s a result, the joy?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: It's not an act that I do as if, it's not something I can cheat when it comes to joy?

M. Laitman: No.

Student: When I have a certain measure of joy, I'll have that measure of joy?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: Is it from there that also, something that will obligate the revelation of the Creator?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: Where are we erring so far because we're not convincing the Creator enough? We're not managing to discover that.

M. Laitman: You are not discovering the place where He can be revealed.

Student: Refine us, aim us a little bit better. It's clear, but give us a little bit of refinement here. What exactly do we need to do a little more so it will be revealed better between us?

M. Laitman: We have to make Purim. Yes, yes.

Student: Give me something more so we can work with it, Rav, please, something more. I'll tell you why, soon Pesach will come, and Pesach is a holiday that is easier, at least for me, I know for other friends because it's seemingly very important, it's very big, it's closer to the concepts that we're learning. Purim, just say to me, do Purim, I don't know what to do with that so much, in truth. I know how to go back to my Ten and work on connection, that, yes, but where is Purim?

M. Laitman: All right, all right, we will clarify. Okay. We will do it.

Reader: (01:03:03) Excerpt 5. “There is a certain people…”

M. Laitman: (01:04:04) This is basically the whole secret of the holiday. Meaning, the holiday of Purim is a holiday of unity, internally and strongly to the stage of Adloyada, until one does not know.

Student: (01:04:43) I feel like the source of the joy comes from above, and I feel it when my heart is open. With that, I feel that I must transfer this joy to other people. But that means that also a whole heart needs to open up, that their heart needs to also open up, and I have no influence on that already. What do we do?

M. Laitman: We do what we are advised to do, and then we see how that works. They probably have the experience and there is a reason why they tell us. And it will open up.

Student: (01:05:39) We read just now in this excerpt and you emphasized the importance of unity. I am talking with quite a lot of people that are not necessarily on this path. I see more and more that people are talking about the need for connection, for unity, to overcome all the obstacles. My question: How do we as Bnei Baruch, how can we contribute, how can we add, internally, to that connection that we are seeing that is being embroidered gradually now, lately in the people?

M. Laitman: I am not that close to the people, I do not know what to tell you.

Student: Eventually our role is with dissemination and everything to pass to the people. I am talking about more internally. We heard earlier our lady, maybe in prayer, maybe in our outcry.

M. Laitman: Yes, you are right.

Student: Everything from within the heart, not the head, just the heart, the heart, the heart.

M. Laitman: Yes, yes.

Student: (01:07:10) I really want to ask about this place where, on one hand, we have some war and separation between us, and on the other hand some efforts to connect nevertheless. I see this in the Ten, where sometimes in a workshop a friend says something and I feel this inner resistance to what she said. Later after the workshop, this inner war within me, this resistance to what she said, and on the other hand this great desire to feel her lack. It kind of brews within me, and then it can be all of a sudden, another workshop we are talking about some topic and all of a sudden, I feel that that friend is talking from within me, it’s not me it’s her lack. Is that the place of the connection that we are talking about, that suddenly I feel that the friends from within the Ten are talking from within me it's already not me?

M. Laitman: Yes. That is also how we feel each other.

Student: (01:08:23) The matter of Purim. Can we read, please, again the excerpt?

Reader: Yes, if Rav will agree, can I read the first excerpt again?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Reader: Excerpt 5. “There is a certain people…”

Student: (01:09:49) It's like we're experiencing now what was in the past. It's like our nation is in the same state and we don't get this. I don't know how we will, what we will do so that we will grasp that Purim is not costumes and masks and sending out goodies. It needs to be revealed now to all the people of Israel, and we have a certain role here. What do we need to do?

M. Laitman: As written, to unite, to unite. Let us hope we are on the way. We have to speed up the connection between us. But still, we are in this direction.

Student: (01:10:55) Actually, Mordechai is in the internal level walking, meaning the quality of Mordechai is on the internal level, we need to unite the desire of Israel in us, let's say the Ten or in our group. We need to come to a state in which we listen to the lesson, let's say, and our desires, our yearnings are connected. Is that the action?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: Something else interested me, what is the action of Esther in eventually, in all of this?

M. Laitman: Concealment, Hastara. We have to look at the text, itself and study it carefully, the scroll of Esther, and see what's written.

Student: What does she do in the end? Eventually, after all the things that Mordechai did the work, is there some action?

M. Laitman: I do not want to get into that now because that's not where everyone is.

Reader: (01:12:16) Excerpt 6, twice. “The fact that a person…”

M. Laitman: (01:14:00) Meaning, we have to fill our heart with gratitude to the Creator and really be thankful to Him. And accordingly, we will prepare the place for the response from Him.

Song: (01:14:37)

Student: (01:18:20) I do not know why, but this Convention creates such a feeling, such an excitement of how important, really, is a physical gathering?

M. Laitman: Look, the truth is it is not that important. If we can bestow, influence, without physically connecting, to do so instead of corporeally but do so spiritually. But it turns out that bestowal, corporeally, physically, bodily is very important, it is very important. You see how this is how the world is built. It's not that we built it in such a way, the Creator arranged for us such processes that we need to be connected also with our bodies, that is why there's no choice.

Student: We see a lot of world groups around the world gathered.

M. Laitman: Yes, the groups in the world that are with us right now. We saw from all the places, and can you see, that is how the world is arranged.

Student: (01:19:59) I wanted to ask, it is written joy is a result of good deeds. What exactly are good deeds?

M. Laitman: Connection, there is nothing besides that.

Student: As a result of connection between us we feel joy?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: Where is that joy felt?

M. Laitman: In the vessel of connection.

Student: What did you say before joy, has no vessel?

M. Laitman: Because there isn't, we have to make it. When we gather in one place, we sing, we learn, we talk, then from that the Kli is created, this sharing and from that Kli we start to feel something that's called joy.

Student: Any other joy that is felt, interacting with the friends, people I haven't seen before, the meal?

M. Laitman: So of course in that too, there are also good deeds, but nevertheless if we do it intentionally then it gives a different result.

Student: Where is the Creator in this joy, what brings joy to the Creator?

M. Laitman: The Creator is above us as we expect from Him to connect between us to unite us and accompany us towards a powerful as possible connection, internal connection and clothe us there.

Student: If during the convention I feel a descent or some lowly state, I don't have joy within, what does it mean?

M. Laitman: It means you're being given room to work, you're being given a place to work this, undoubtedly you have to battle that.

Student: What is the battle now, here?

M. Laitman: Now we don't have a battle, now we emerged from this general chill that we had let's say in the morning and now we are already walking towards a greater and greater connection.

Student: Last question: What force exists on this day that can help us rise to Him even more?

M. Laitman: A special blessing for connection. All together, in what is Purim special? In that the people meaning all those who want to come closer to the Creator can connect with others and by that come closer to the Creator and in that succeed with the illumination from above called Purim.

Student: The special blessing that we have today, it comes to us also without labor on our part?

M. Laitman: There's also such a thing but nevertheless to the extent in which we, to the extent that we act from ourselves towards connection then there is an increasing joy.

Student: (01:23:38) When there's a concern for the friend that's really in your heart, how do you put joy into that, how do you add to the concern, the joy?

M. Laitman: You have the possibility, that it belongs to the sanctity of the day, to pray, to think of him, that the Creator has managed, will manage to bring him to the side of good.

Student: How to insert the love so we have that too?

M. Laitman: You have it, you do, it's already within that.

Student: (01:24:38) Is the unity we're talking about, they’re saying those connecting without those that are bothering the connection, this whole confusion it’s like something from the times of Babel, everyone’s talking about the same thing but each intends something else. Is it connected through our confusion, where we don’t know what connection is?

M. Laitman: Also and only through us. We correct connection, it’s from all that can happen, also between us but only from Ein Sof because that’s where the Upper force is.

Student: That's what we have to pass to them?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: (01:25:57) We need to come to this eruption of internal joy, it’s like something that developed from us and then this song comes and gives us a little peak that we rise on. How do we maintain this inner intention when joy erupts because it can also lead to states where some, you know, spirit of folly enters in you.

M. Laitman: This should all be measured one towards the other in the middle line, and the main thing for you is to be in connection.

Student: This line that we're supposed to be in connection really protects the person but today we're coming to that place of, until one does not know.

M. Laitman: That is a state of being above connection, meaning that we want to be until we can't differentiate above us that, between us. Meaning we are raising our connection above all the conditions.

Student: It's not some internal thing of being happy and getting drunk?

M. Laitman: You're doing that, yes.

Student: You're not in intention there so how do we help one another here, specifically today?

M. Laitman: We're all embracing one another, hugging one another and all being drawn towards connection. We don't really have the words for it.

Student: (01:27:56) I have a question, if we feel a drastic change in terms of emotions, strong joy and being moved to tears is that a stage in opening the hearts or exposure to the light?

M. Laitman: Not always, no. It does point to the fact that a person is in excitement. Is it the opening of the heart? I don't think so, I don't know. That's something we need to examine in more internal vessels, the state of a person.

Student: Also the state of feeling others?

M. Laitman: Yes, this is something we'll talk about.

Student: (01:28:57) Whenever this nation suffers blows and we also heard it from Rabash's article, then the nation unites. Now we here don't unite because of the blows I believe, but because we come to study and understand the importance of connection but the majority of the people don't understand this. They come together when they suffer a big blow, and the question is: How can we use that to approach the people after a strong blow and help them understand the force of connection and maybe change their ways because they lose it very quickly?

M. Laitman: It all depends on the extent in which we will advertise our way and explain it and reach a state that we are all connecting around correction, around the correction. There is nothing to add. We will continue, we will continue, we still have a way to go and we’re on this path, advancing on it so everything will come in its time.

Student: (01:30:49) Baal HaSulam writes that man doesn't want anything for himself and is happy that the will to receive cannot enjoy. What does it mean, how does one come to joy without receiving anything? This is from excerpt 2.

M. Laitman: Specifically in not receiving anything he reaches joy from the Upper light illuminating him from above and filling him, and filling those vessels that he prepares by emptying them specifically.

Student: (01:31:40) I'm asking a question: How can I be in joy when my people are in sorrow and I keep seeing crying mothers and internally I'm happy, could be happy but the externality overpowers.

M. Laitman: It's difficult, but we've been in such states in history that probably we went through them without having any conclusion from that.

Student: What to do now in this gathering?

M. Laitman: To understand remains the same correction, the same solution. The connection between us, a prayer to the Creator to correct us and fill us with His force.

Student: (01:32:42) It is written that the Shechina only dwells from joy. What does it mean to make a room for the Shechina from joy?

M. Laitman: In the connection between us, to the extent in which we are distant to one another, if despite that we are drawn towards connection then in that we build the Kli for the revelation of the Upper light, for the revelation of the Creator. It's called the Kli for the revelation of the Shechina.

Student: Should it come from annulment? In what way can we produce it?

M. Laitman: From the annulment of the existence of the ego.

Student: Then we discover joy, when we discover annulment of the ego?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: (01:33:45) I'm assuming this was asked many times but it's a burning question. How to demand and ask for connection and revelation of the Creator from a clean place, not from the will to receive which always cunningly wants everything for itself and it's inseparable from part of each of us, so how will this request for connection won't be from wanting for myself, wanting my own joy, feeling good about myself? How do I really..?

M. Laitman: It's impossible, you can't raise a prayer from a pure place, from a clean person, from a pure person. We need to work from where we are, filthy, transgressors, criminals, and only from the place that we want to rise up and come closer to the Creator we will succeed.

Student: (01:35:28) I wanted to ask about what I see from the school of my kids, grand kids, it becomes like a festival, a carnival and you forget, the source is forgotten, and I wanted to ask what's more important, to accept all of them as one or just focus on the connection, the unity of the friends?

M. Laitman: Unity and connection between friends is very important, that's what we need to aim towards.

Reader: (01:36:25) How would you summarize the lesson?

M. Laitman: The summary of the lesson, how is the lesson called?

Reader: The lesson is called Joy from Unity.

M. Laitman: So let's, let's discover that between us.

Song: (01:36:54)
