*Baal HaSulam - The Shofar of the Messiah*

1. Rav’s Introduction: As you know we have a plan, according to this plan we wish to cover all of Baal Hasulam’s articles and we see the highest importance, that in order to advance in order to acquire the general nature of reality regarding our place our role, our advancement towards the goal the spiritual goal the goal of our life and with that we study the weekly portion and study several other writings of Rabash. There's a rich program ahead of us, very robust but first, we have to know what Baal HaSulam wrote about our generation, the development of the wisdom of Kabbalah and how to come to the realization of our role So as far as we're going to read the short article the Messiah's Shofar, the Shofar of the Messiah, Moshiach means the force that pulls us from our egoistic desire, to in order to bestow an altruistic desire, from exile we are disconnected from the Creator, to Redemption where we reveal Him. Just as we learned the difference between Golah and Geulah, Exile and Redemption, is the letter Aleph, the champion of the world when he is revealed, the Creator, so what is the Shofar the Messiah it's a call to this upper Force to pull us from the egoistic desire to bestowal.

*Excerpt Reader (2:33 - 3:28)*

2. R. Meaning there were several such instances in history of thousands of years from Babylon onward that gave hope to those who wanted to approach the Creator reveal Him, eternity, wholeness, adhesion that is possible but seemingly that time seemingly working for the benefit of this state but it didn't happen. So they're saying it's likely we're lacking the force of the Messiah, he needs to be revealed and pulls us from our ego, from in order to receive to in order to bestow so there were a few such dates seemingly in our development. The development of the world where the world could have climbed to the degree of connection, considered the revelation of the Creator, but it did not happen.

Reader continues (4:47 - 5:51)

2A. R. You can ask what you want to ask because each and every sentence is cut and like that so you can ask what's not clear. To know what Baal HaSulam is telling Us for he is telling us that Rashbi and his students saw that Redemption is not coming after the destruction of the second Temple and that we are entering an exile disconnected from the Creator more and more. So, they hid in this place Idra Raba, it's a place in the North of Israel. they sat there and they wrote the book of Zohar, a group of a ten and that's what they did, and from that they got the Book of Zohar. Rashbi himself did not write because he knew too much, he was not able to write since it would become that he would reveal too much and it was forbidden, since these things should not be revealed. Disclosed gradually. It's like children according to their age and their development we give them more and more wisdom. Rashbi did more in the same he chose the student named Rabbi Aba and they had such qualities in his soul he was from the surrounding light closer to the surrounding light and he could write in Sod in an encrypted form, since even though he's writing it in a clear manner, only those who have a tendency to reveal the Creator, a true tendency could actually read it. Those who actually have a soul from the surrounding light. That's how the Book of Zohar was written and although on the one hand it was written, on the other hand it is concealed, only those who know can read it, those who have a tendency feeling to do work to rise above their ego and according to the degree they are rising above their ego accordingly they discover what the Zohar is talking about

3. S. (8:47) In the first excerpt we read about Rabbi Akiva a question who is Rabbi Akive and Bar Kochba?

R. These are the Kabbalists that live during those times after the destruction of the second temple that's it. Rabbi Akiva was a teacher of Rashbi who wrote the Book of Zohar with the students, Rabbi Akiva is known as a great teacher a great Erudite and his name was mentioned in all the texts, in the Talmud, everywhere. He's the one who established for us the Torah as Kabbalists were all great Kabbalists from whom the wisdom of Kabbalah came to us, so what he's writing for us is the main thing. His main teaching was surrounded with a famous saying was loved your friend as thyself, during the destruction he cried out, let's stop this destruction with love and his 24,000 students could not overcome the ego between them and connect together just like we cannot do it, for the time being, so he stopped. When the temple was finally destroyed he laughed, why did he laugh he said now I know that the complete Redemption is ahead of us in the fact that when it will come is not important but what is left for us is exile could be long exile, but at the end of it we will have connection between us and the revelation of the Creator in the complete way permanently, eternally this is called the Third Temple. This is what they say about Rabbi Akiva there are other things, but this is what we have.

4. S. (11”50) Why is there fear to know that you have to work for their masters isn't there something supposed to be open to all?

R. Something twisted, corrupted could come for from it as we see today, how do we they turn the wisdom of Kabbalah into some new are and people get confused. In everything you have plus and minus so on the one hand they deal with all sorts of wholistic forms, on the other hand thanks to these things gradually we can scrutinize that they are empty and then they come to the true wisdom of Kabbalah. There's no good without bad and bad without good. Back then they were afraid to reveal it openly to everyone because people were back then the first and second century after destruction after the Common Era they were in the process of starting to deal with religion and belief systems because they started from the 4th 5th Century CE Christianity and Islam from the seventh century so forth. They were afraid that they'll take deeper concepts of the wisdom of Kabbalah from more truthful and make it difficult for people around the world to come to the true work in order to bestow. As it were, we have Judaism Christianity and Islam that came out of it.

5. S. (14:13) Because today we're in the time of the Messiah but in those times how did people become Kabbalists what did they work on at the time wasn't right?

R. No, first of all from The Exodus from Egypt they understood who they are they were studying always among the people of Israel, those who came out of Babylon, many small clans and Nations but they connected into one group and they always had teachers, the Cohen's the Levites they would teach people Moses brought them out of Egypt, brought them into the desert he waited and came to them one very wise Gentile called Jethro. He was Moses's father in law was Zipporah’s dad, Moses's wife, when Moses fled from Pharaoh when the people were in Egypt he fled Egypt to a place a nation, people live there, Jethro was their overseer of these people and Moses married his daughter Zipporah. Yitro doesn't belong to the people of Israel he understood it and he felt it when they came out of Egypt and he advised on how to organize the nation, the tribes, according to the structure of the soul and how to conduct trials and how to keep the laws. Yitro did a great deal, we need to understand that during these times it wasn't like it was like it is today. Let's say the Greeks, the Romans would come to the people of Israel and sit and study, as it's written in Aristotle and Plato they wrote that our wisdom, their wisdom of philosophy, it's all coming from what we learned from Kabbalists. It's also written in the sources in history there were many people from the nations around Israel that would come and study it wasn’t forbidden and anyone who wanted was welcomed. It wasn't always like that those who wanted to connect we're invited, during those times the people were not in their religion like today. Rather the wisdom of Kabbalah was what existed in the nation and that's how they would teach people, children, women everyone needs to be in order to bestow. People grew up like that for a thousand years from the first temple to the second temple. But together with that, the ego was constantly growing, just as we see it during our times, during the past two thousand years how the ego developed and thanks to it we discovered science and technology and so forth. It's all because the will to receive that it constantly grows in us and it was the same back then, but they would be teaching the other nations that joined them. From that through Greece and Rome we got the wisdom of Kabbalah from them to the world to Europe and to the rest of the world. Their texts not by Jews but by those Sages who studied and it was customary to study to learn Hebrew and up until the Middle Ages. Newton and people after him would study Hebrew in order to read the sources. To acquire the foundations of the wisdom, the fundamentals. The big disconnect that happened was over the last 200 - 300 years ago, before that there were great Kabbalists mostly in Eastern Europe and it carried on. Therefore, Baal HaSulam, Rav Kook, Rabash, they are the last ones from that chain that extended back to Babylon you can say it.

6. S. (20:40) Fear that only Rabbi Aba had the ability, the talent to describe through intonation through concealment and the reason for it was fear?

R. That's something else you have to write books, in such a way to not confuse people who are not ready to reach the revelation of the Creator yet those who are ready according to their soul who are ready to come to the revelation of the Creator, they'll be able to reach it through the text. That's the whole matter of the revelation of the secrets of the Torah you reveal them to those who are capable because in the soul of Adam HaRishon there are parts that are capable and there are parts that are not capable yet and the correction is that one carries the other. So we have to reveal it in such a way that people would come and according to the order of their soul, they will enter the wisdom of the soul of Godliness. Let's say you're building a home, you're building the foundation, the walls, the windows and doors and need a floor, you need the ceiling, electricity and so on and so forth. Meaning one follows the other, that's how we have to prepare our dissemination. That it would attract first those who are now capable of work of connection entering inner work of connection and revelation, for us it's easier because we can disseminate to everyone, but for them it was a problem. They had to disseminate only to those who are capable of coming close, working and advancing in this way. There are many things in that there are those who are only attracted to the wisdom. So they go through the study of the 10 Sephirot and they come back to back and they think by now and by coming closer to the Creator and that's a bitter mistake there are many misconceptions about it and troubles. because they turned the Torah into dry wisdom like the wisdoms of the world. There are those who are drawn to mysticism, so they're looking for such things in the wisdom of Kabbalah remedies, they open the Book of Zohar and it says the right-hand to left-hand do this, that they don't understand that it speaks of inner qualities inside of a person. Rather they think with these hands and this and that everything will be fine and more to this day we have those problems. We are keeping various actions externally and we think that by that we're correcting the soul. It is easily perceived by a person he feels it after each action he's advancing another step and another step and he thinks he sees true progress and how ineffective it is. So, the Sages of the Zohar have this serious concern, what to disclose and what not to disclose that’s why Rabbi Shimon cried and said if I disclose everything they will get confused. How those who can approach the revelation of the Creator, how they will be able to come close to the true work in order to bestow and connect between them and the Creator and be like me and be in adhesion with him. Therefore these things are not simple, there are many conditions here, what to reveal, what not to reveal and in what way to reveal it. That's why we have in the wisdom of Kabbalah many sects, not in the wisdom of itself, but the people who engage in the wisdom. There's Lithuanian Kabbalah, Spanish Kabbalah and Baal Shem Tov Kabbalah and there's great differences between them. I went through them, I studied with Zilberman in Jerusalem Lithuanian Kabbalah. according to the HaGra, the Gaon from Vilnius. Then I came to Rabash, there's great differences. Such an extent that they're not even in contact with one another, they're not speaking to one another. Often times I traveled with Rabash to Kabbalists and he would want to meet them in those days, about 40 years ago, he would meet with them. Today they are not in our world. I asked him what happened, sometimes he would say I couldn't understand who is he and what is he, because he is concealed, he conceals himself to such an extent that he cannot reveal him. So the meeting was only an external meeting. There are all kinds, gradually we will understand it and we will know it, we will advance and it will help us understand our world a little bit more where we exist. How you need to relate because the broken soul is found in many opposing different parts, and for each one you need to bring a thread to tie it back to the Creator everything connects to the Creator.

7. S. (28:00) What happened to the group of students to the students of Rabbi Akiva after he passed away?

R. They all fell from the spiritual degree to the corporeal degree, all twenty-four thousand students of Rabbi Akiva, imagine he had a university let's say for Kabbalah and everyone's study internality. How to connect how to reach the Creator. They were twenty-four thousand strong and all I wanted to reach the end of correction. But at that time, specifically because they were so connected, so drawn to it, they were shown the destruction. It was necessary for another destruction to take place like the first destruction, the fall from the degree of Chochmah, to the degree of Binah during the times of Rabbi Akiva was the fall from degree of Binah to Malchut and they went into Exile. The one we are now concluding, and we are coming towards Redemption, the light is shining and we are starting to rise in the connection between us to building a connection called the Third Temple.

8. S. (30:02) How should we work to build the Third Temple in the 21st century as peace and how do we tell this to others?

R. That's our whole work, we cannot say it briefly it's through the connection between when we build the foundation of the Third Temple, Beit HaMikdash, Beit means a Kli, Mikdash is general bestowal when we reach general connection in bestowal and love between us, around that more and more circles will start to assemble around us from among the people of the world and in this way a Kli called the Third Temple will be built and it is coming to the light of Yechidah.

9. (31:15) Why did Rabbi Akiva see the coming of the Messiah?

R. No, he didn't see, but he thought, it wasn't a mistake that he thought that it's possible without the destruction of the second temple to reach complete redemption. It all depends on our effort but he couldn't do it or his students. So, the moment the temple fell he laughed and they asked him what are you laughing about, what are you so happy about, everything is destroyed? We're going into Exile but after that I see the Third Temple, final Temple.

10. S. (32:36) They say before the ruin of the temple all the people of Israel were in some level of attainment, so what were they trying to do, the Kabbalists from Rashbi?

R. No, no there's a difference there, you're confused, between the first temple and the second temple everyone was in a spiritual degree and it says it wasn't a small child from north to south in the area of Israel that didn't know what is Klipah and what is Kedushah, sanctity because the first temple is Mochin of Chayah, the second temple during the time of Rabbi Akiva is the destruction of Mochin of Neshamah and between them where all these people who had a spiritual sensation, some kind of spiritual sensation. Whereas after the second temple, after the ruin, it was known that they're not in sanctity and there's nothing more to do but only to try and rehabilitate those who are interested in bestowal and establish the third temple and that's what Rashbi was doing, he was in the second century after the current era.

S. They also said students Rabbi Akiva died of a plague because they weren't connected?

R. Corporeal reason for the blow, they all perished from some disease but 24000 you understand how many and the size of it? Yes, they all died from a disease from a plague like the Coronavirus that's how it was.

11. S. (35:12) When a person doesn't know something he feels uncertain, we learn articles about Baal HaSulam and TES we barely study, there will come a time when we have students and they'll ask us tell me, where is there in TES the legitimacy for connection?

R. It's not because you don't know about it, it's because nothing of that is written about it there. You're talking about things you don't understand about, the study of TES is designed for people who have a Masach, screen and they can work on their will to receive as we say on Aviut, coarseness with the screen and start ascending up the ladder of degrees in practice that's what the TES is talking about. You can go into the archive and in the language you understand and read about it, no problem. I can't waste our time on this right now because it's certain that we need material we are studying even more, if you want to go there and learn. The other thing is if you study with someone, doesn't matter who you simply have to follow the teacher, otherwise you'll learn nothing, especially not internality.

12. S. (37:08) What did Rabbi Akiva students lack in order to achieve the connection with the Messiah?

R. They lack the force of overcoming, like we do and each and every moment, we can attain the complete correction, complete Redemption under the condition that we make an effort required effort we are unable to do. The required effort they could not do it, so over time there is the mixing of the vessels of reception with the vessels of the bestowal and from that mixing there is the ability to correct the bad by the good.

13. S. (38:26) I see Rabbi Akiva something exceptional, he didn't know the alphabet until he was 42, then he built a seminary and all those students came and only a few left, what does it mean spiritually?

R. First of all Rabbi Akiva was not one of those Israelites who arrived from Babylon, he was from different people. His father and mother, his parents came from the small nation that used to dwell next to the people of Israel, they joined the people of Israel, Rabbi Akiva grew up and went to school, had academia, became very wise strong desire, became to be the wisest the most venerated Sage of all the people of Israel. Everything we know about the wisdom of Kabbalah, about spirituality, about the Creator, all went through him. An example for everyone, that's how we accept it.

14. S. (40:25) It's very bothersome the issue that Kabbalist we're not exposing themselves to each other or not trying to achieve connection?

R. Results of the Exile what can you do, it is known, the dates back to the opposition between the HaGra and the Baal Shem Tov who went to Vilnius to meet with him to explain, the HaGra did not want to see him he left and did not want to see him

S. It brings up a very fundamental question about the matter of connection and also very bothering is that I feel if we would be asked whether we are connecting with the whole of Israel the whole public of Israel even if we...

R. What is does it mean to connect, if we connect is it's possible in the heart and the mind, specially in the heart, do we have the feeling, understanding what we have to come to what kind of connection in our hearts meaning in our desires. Are we in such a state, what does it mean to connect with everyone? Go out into the streets and see what they're doing, what do they wish to reach, try to connect with them, try to speak with me. I want to see how they will understand you, I don't understand how do you think it is possible? We need to attain the spiritual force ourselves first, when we become wiser, more understanding and the time will be more appropriate. All the masses of the people will despair, what they're trying to do when they lose their determination a little bit, we can explain to them what they want to reach, in a different way through connection, today they're going to hear it.

S. Explain is one thing but to achieve cordial connection it is another thing, we can explain in the method of connection but to actually connect we don’t do that.

R. I'm ready to do it, I'll follow you, what can we do?

S. No I'm actually in the opposite approach, then I can't give a good example to those people that I'm giving the message to because if we want to realize it in practice we are seemingly supposed to go out and connect with them.

R. What do you mean to come out to them and connect with them, explain to me?

S. What about the example of Moses?

R. It's impossible, something different, don't take such an example, we don't understand anything about it. Rather you need to connect in your opinion and something, then a bit more. Who will you connect with, go out and protest, is that going to be a connection? By what? I don't feel it will do any good, on the contrary how can you go out in protest with the masses when you don't have anything in common with them? Not according to the method, not according to the means, the goal, nothing, the principles. We're going out now let's say we're going out tonight to connect with the people, who are we going to go out to?

S. No there's no one to connect with but what stage in the development of the general corrections, Israel is already separated to the final corrections, so when is there connection?

R. We need to first connect between us to have the force of connection inside of us, it would be felt in us that the Creator will shine to us, a little bit with his power and then we'll be connected that's the first thing. Then we'll be able to with this power of connection, a little bit, to shine to them a little bit and tell them friends, this is the purpose of creation, purpose of the development of humanity, let's connect above all the disturbances, above all the sects, above all the problems, that's what we need and then they'll look at us and understand that this is the goal and that this is the means. But just like that to come out, who are you, who will talk to you, who will listen to you? They're going through such egoistic states, such resistance, such conflict, now today it's impossible. Time will come.

15. S. (46:26) When you talk about the ancient times it feels like you're diving into that time and talk about it in a very tangible way, how does that work?

R. I feel it inside, I live it.

S. Baal HaSulam also goes into very fine details about the Tsdokim, the Pushim, the officers he talks about these things very tangibly.

R. It's not because he's a historian he simply feels the general soul and what it went through from Adam HaRishon to reveal it for the very first time to discover it for the very first time, to our time, he feels are the ascents and descents, the corrections, the shattering that this general vessel has gone the state it is in today I don't feel it like him, but to some extent I feel it and accordingly I tell you about it.

16. S. (47:48) We live in a time that there's enormous amounts of Gentiles and growth of egoism in the world so listening to this what Kabbalists were hiding all the time, are there also times we should be very careful about and hide?

R. No, we can reveal everything completely everything because we are entering the complete Redemption, we have no secrets, nothing to hide from anyone. Specifically the wisdom of Kabbalah today can be revealed to all to everyone to each one and everyone, on the contrary they will learn more and understand that this is the method for general correction and for the general program of nature is aiming us at that.

17. S. (49:08) Today in the global Gathering of friends topic we planned one of the groups Tbilisi and KavKaz, the topis was connection between the ten we learned you talk about Jethro how he taught Moses how to connect to people in tens...

R. Don't ask such questions when we're studying Baal HaSulam I'm not going to turn the studies into your direction it's forbidden to do so

*Reader “Disclosing The Kabbalah as the Creator’s Will (50:18 - 50:38)*

18. R. From Rashbi it's been a thousand years to Rabbi Moshe Deleon ihe was a great kabbalist in the 20th century, more or less I'm not so good with numbers, but something like that. He was a great Kabbalist, he had the Book of Zohar he lived in Spain and when he died, he left this Book of Zohar at home. His wife was left without any means to sustain herself without money and she sold his books back then each book was expensive because it was a copy from one book to another, she sold his books and among them she sold the books of Zohar. That's how the Zohar started to be available to everyone, people started to copy it and sell it to everyone who was interested in it because it was speaking of such things that no one thought that there are books which were talking about it. So what is it saying?

*Excerpt “Indeed it was the Creator's desire it would appear...”(52:03 - 52:47)*

19. R. The Book of Zohar is revealed and they started to pick into it and people don't even belong to spiritual ascension started to work with it and started to make it into remedies into you name it. They took menus for how to cook and what to do, it was terrible. They brought the Book of Zohar down to such a level of primitive superstitions for the people, and that stopped, detained, delayed humanity spiritual development for many years.

*Excerpt “The Benefits from disclosing the Kabbalah” (53:41 - 54:16)*

20. R. Meaning on the other hand because of such intermingling at the expansion of the wisdom of Kabbalah even in this way, in this seemingly wrong way around the world if brought people to interested in that where we are today seeing the results of this incorrect dissemination. But nevertheless, as you say we are at the threshold of redemption we have advanced towards the general end of corrections. Specifically, because the wisdom of Kabbalah was spread throughout the world and everybody knows what is this book. Let's say for example a Doctor of philosophy in Kabbalah rather I graduated at the university the faculty of the University of Kabbalah and so on and so forth. It's accepted in many places around the world, there's many faculties, many places where people study the wisdom of Kabbalah, of course it's not like we study it. It's remote from the truth, you don't learn a method of how to rise above the ego but it's things around that literature, what it's talking about somehow. Nevertheless, this is dissemination, and this dissemination is also bringing humanity closer to the revelation of the Creator.

21. S. (56:10) There is a scary fact that a person can even be on a spiritual degree and maybe not achieve connection, why is it like that?

R. Because the shattering is greater than the screen than the people are acquiring, think about this line.

22. S. (56:48) The ruin of the second temple is a fall from the Binah to Malchut you should learn this more and you will understand, For now just accept it as it is.

R. You should learn more, ZA and Malchut are connected together you should learn this more.

23. S. (57:14) A long time ago there was great fear to talk about the wisdom of Kabbalah in the people of Israel and spread it to the nations of the world that's the...

R. That's during the time of Exile but not before it was all open because the people of Israel itself was in the spiritual level. After the destruction of the second temple, everyone fell and then everyone was forbidden to disclose it and even the people of Israel. They disclosed it completely because it had to be revealed of Israel according to its spiritual degree. Or the whole world advances to the state where it needs to be in Revelation. We are in a state where the whole world is coming closer to revelation, the time of the Messiah as Baal HaSulam writes the time of the Messiah the last generation. Therefore it's permitted to disclose the wisdom of Kabbalah, not during our time but before the Ari actually from the 16th century when the Great Kabbalists the Ari he wrote the book of the Etz Chaim, the Tree of Life, he revealed the wisdom of Kabbalah and from that time on we can disclose it to everyone. That how his student wrote it in his introduction. Hence from the time of the Ari, people started to study the wisdom of the Kabbalah here and there in Israel and you had many study groups from that. Anyone who dealt with the wisdom of Kabbalah in practice and taught them was the Baal Shem Tov. He established the correct attitude today to the wisdom of Kabbalah today and we're following him. We study from the Ari and our work in connection is according to the Kabbalah of the Baal Shem Tov, both of them are leading us to correction. Baal HaSulam used to belong to the Ari and Rabash related more to Baal Shem Tov, they continued the work of these two great ones. That's why we take it in this way the Kabbalah of the Ari and the work of the Baal Shem Tov and we continue it further. So of course, what we're doing is not accepted by religious Judaism in any way shape or form. it's not at all what they're engaged in.

24. S. (1:00:57) If the Torah is meant to reform the whole world, what does it mean to steal the secrets of the Torah from the article?

R. Secrets is something else, it's when you know certain things spiritual things that you still don't need to know because it will harm your advancement, and today it's not even it used to be today you're a little child and they let you play with electricity and make them God forbid you get an electric shock that's how it is in spirituality.

24A.S. (1:01:57) Why in the Zohar that was in the hands of Rabbi Moshe DeLeon was not complete, what should we learn from that?

R. You need to learn from history, how the Book of Zohar could be revealed seemingly by chance he students of Rabbi Shimon concealed The Book of Zohar and they found it many years later as loose pages and they compiled them to the Book of Zohar that we know today. It's the nature of all the concealed things that belong to the Creator, that in such a way, such a weird way they become revealed to humanity,. That's how the Book of Zohar got revealed that's why it's incomplete. But there are various parts that are missing from The Book of Zohar the original Book of Zohar today we can fit into one volume. The original Book of Zohar it wasn't just an interpretation of the Torah, but also included the prophets and the last books there are many volumes, but it all disappeared. These volumes will make an appearance, begin to approach the end of correction, the Book of Zohar will ultimately be revealed in all its wholeness. I don't want to say more than that. It will be revealed like that it's like the Ari said before he died, he said to his student if you will be rewarded, I will come and teach you. The student said how can you teach them when you're dying? He said you have no business in the concealed, so that's how it is, just take it like that, continue to acquire more wisdom, more feeling, more understanding. your eyes will open, and you'll see that it's possible.

25. S. (1:05:14) What's the benefit of this development that happens in parallel, Israel and the nations of the world, why are these two parts develop in parallel?

R. Because later they need to connect and by that connection of those two hearts and mind you'll get the correct connection and reveal the Creator.

26. S. (1:05:59) In terms of the development of Kabbalah, the pandemic that we are now experiencing is this a milestone?

R. I'm not talking about it

27. S. (1:06:06) The disclosure of the Book of Zohar, if that's stopped the development
R. It didn't stint it it's that how it needed to be, you think the revelation of the Zohar is not according to the will of the creator, That there's something that is not according to the desires of the creator? You should be in a little bit more of the know even if it's not according to the Creator or if it is according to the Creator it's all coming from above, this is the program that works from the Creator it only appears to have said it is seemingly according to his will or against his will.

S. He writes here, In my assessment we are in a generation that is standing at the threshold of redemption, If we only know how to spread the wisdom in the masses?

R. That's correct.

S. We open it up to all of humanity?

R. You say let's connect what are you going to open up pages in the book it is everywhere, what is the meaning of the revelation of the wisdom of Kabbalah? Where should it be revealed, you want to open the book and look at like a donkey looking into water tell me.

S. So what are we doing today when we explain?

R. You explain and you have to give them as an example how to connect. The revelation of the wisdom of Kabbalah is the revelation of the connection, wisdom for everyone into one soul where the Creator is revealed

S. And it's going to only happen in our example?

R. You don't have the strength, who are you to come to them and talk to them?

S. And all kinds of actions, educational activities, when we activate them, not just explanations is that not considered?

R. Our entire influence is crazy, very light.

28. S. (1:08:48) What does it mean to connect to Baal HaSulam?

R. Baal HaSulam is the last great Kabbalist other than Rabash, We told this about all of the wisdom of Kabbalah we are learning with you his articles and his material this is what we have to explain to everyone especially what's before humanity. What humanity's facing, why do we deserve such viruses, and we can reach a World War. We'll have to explain to everyone and also what can save us from these troubles, only the connection between us.

*Excerpt “First Benefit” Reader (1:09:58 - 1:10:40)*

29. R. What he's saying here is the Torah came out of the people of Israel and covered the entire planet with various wisdoms. As it is written that Abraham gave his sons of his concubines gifts and sent them to the east to India, China, Oceania, everywhere he sent them there. Pakistan, Afghanistan all those places. He sent there his wisdom on the one hand and on the other hand, his wisdom came about through the religions of Christianity and Islam to other parts of the world, and from all those things has to come back to the attainment of Godliness we're eventually all the nations of the world will connect, each one by himself but for attainment of one God, one Godliness.

30. S. (1:12:10) We are talking about the Book of Zohar and Ari, are these qualities in me or in people?

R. Each one of us is included in all of the people in all of the qualities and we also have to see that it is outside of what it appears to me, or I can say what appears to me outside is what we learn according to perception of reality as I see myself. Except in this open and amplified form, however you want to say it you can say it like this or like that but ultimately when you connect you connect internality and externality together is when you get the true picture.

31. S. (1:13:08) What is the difference between the work of connection with the students and teachers of then and today's generation?

R. In each and every generation you have different Souls who reveal the wisdom of Kabbalah in a different way and in this way, no one is revealing the wisdom of Kabbalah in a way that appears to someone else. Each one is revealed it, according to the root of there so that's why it says teach a boy according to his ways.

32. S. (1:14:02) He spoke about dissemination before that we have to bring humanity into connection between us but now when we don't have connection between us and we're just doing dissemination as following the Commandments of our teachers do we bring the power of our teachers?

R. We are conveying something at least the knowledge, if not the inner spiritual Force, we are at least sharing the idea on one hand, on the other hand it also helps us through our connection and our advancement.

*Reader “Second Benefit” (1:14:45 - 1:15:19)*

33. R. Because in Egypt as they tell us Pharaoh knew about the role of the people of Israel and once he found out about it he said God leave, even pushed him to go out they didn't really want to leave the same as here. The nations of the world come to find out what is the purpose of creation, the essence of creation that everyone has to find out that there is no way out. We have to advance towards the connection between us otherwise this connection will take place but through terrible pressures and to the nations of the world. So the nations of the world will push Israel like Pharaoh towards correction and connection and we will all follow them, we will all go together rather. That's why we have to advertise the wisdom of Kabbalah so even without this dissemination, without it if we don't do it, we will not come to correction, is that clear? Just as without dissemination Pharaoh wouldn't be able to come out of Egypt, similarly without the dissemination of the wisdom of Kabbalah to the nations of the world which is something that has to be first, we can't come to the connection between us and to correction. That's why we keep the tens between us, only to find out the essence of connection, to feel it between us and immediately to disseminate to the nations of the world and they will push us, this is the meaning of raising ourselves on their shoulders and we will advance. Like it was in the prophecy of Isaiah.

*Reader “Redemption through disclosing Kabbalah to the nations of the world” (1:17:49 - 1:18:30)*

34. R. It's clear to us that without the dissemination of the wisdom of Kabbalah, with everyone it doesn't matter who or what because we're coming to the end of Correction and all connected together so disseminate without any differences between everyone and only by that we will be able to be drawn in as each one will ignite the other and slowly and gradually we will come closer and come out. Not that we're coming out, those are who are into the Creator, but that we are coming out because everyone else will pressure us to come out, because we are paving the road for everyone else.

35. S. (1:19:16) Is it possible to cross the barrier by being pushed out of fear?

R. I wish, I truly hope that yes, otherwise that if they won't pressure us we won't be able to cross the barrier, if you think that you're drawn to connection you're attracted to connect with the Creator, where do you have that from? Only necessary things that will come to you, that will sting you from behind, then you will flee like from Egypt.

36. S. (1:20:12) We feel more and more the system and the friends, we feel that we are more dependent upon the friends, our prayer at least for me takes on a certain more specific direction maybe more egoistic if it used to be more general in the future, is this good or do we just have to keep working?

R. It will work itself out, if you advance alongside with us, you will acquire the more advanced forms.

*Reader “Dissemination of the Wisdom of Kabbalah the World Over” (1:20:53 - 1:21:52) reads again*

37. R. New shofar means the Horn of the bull that you blow, back then it was a rallying cry as a sign of attack, so the dissemination of the wisdom of Kabbalah throughout the world over is called Shofar. If it says blow a big shofar the meaning is disseminate the wisdom of Kabbalah the world over to everyone because it is time for the whole world to understand its purpose. Because the world is suffering, it is starting to be connected and to suffer as a result so accordingly we need to hurry up and disseminate the wisdom of Kabbalah to everyone.

38. S. (1:23:17) When Pharaoh knew the laws of Israel how does this relate to us what is the connection?

R. We are all today as one nation because we are all intermingled of those vessels from the soul of Adam HaRishon and Babylon today is the entire world. All of it is this Babylon and we all have to advance towards the Exodus from our ego and this is called The Exodus from Egypt, like it or not it doesn't matter, if we don't do it various problems and troubles will begin to be revealed more and more and this pandemic is the first blow, only the first and all of them will advance us towards this place where we say that we are done. We only want to rid ourselves of our ego because this is a source of our troubles, we have no choice but to come out of Pharaoh and this ruler that is dominating us and making us hate one another, reject one another, disturb us from connecting. This way we will come out of our problems and troubles, only this way.

39. S. (1:25:12) You say the Shofar is like a call out for an attack and we see that from Baal HaSulam that he disseminated his whole life and through dissemination we can see through your life that you dedicate your all to this attack, what can we learn from this example and get into that same kind of attack?

R. It is one thing, importance, what is more important than what? Only one thing, what will you do if there is something important, relative to which all else is unimportant, let's say a person God forbid who is gravely ill, what is he thinking about, about being healthy. When he's healthy, he wants to live better and better. So it depends how does he measure his life, according to what's, this pandemic and other blows that will follow and they're already on the horizon they are all here in order to teach us what is important in the world. If now we wish to advertise between us and to the whole world that the most important thing is the connection and although it doesn't seem like that, there are other important things. Why are they saying connection is the most important? But if we talk about it, then it will become important to all of us. Then we will attain the connection and in it we will attain the upper force and we will raise ourselves to a spiritual level, then we will get rid of the troubles. It could be either to attain the Creator or other good things, or to run away from problems and troubles. One of the two. Either forward to plus or from behind to minus. It is one of the two, this is why we require a great dissemination around the world ahead of us, ahead of us are the good things in behind us are the bad and both are working on us. So, let us be drawn to the good things. That's it. otherwise grave problems will reveal themselves.

S. This role of yours and dissemination you also see it with Rabash even though he lived in a relatively closed Society you understood that this is the essence of your progress so how did it happen that how did you see or identify urgency?

R. Rabash wrote about it and he talked to me about it as you know how many days and nights I studied with him? Alone in the hospital, during our trips driving 4 hours to various places, hiking and talking, you know how much time it was every day for hours in addition to going out for two or three days to Tiberius say everyone's or two weeks for 10 or more years do understand how much this gives? We would talk about all of those things specifically, I wasn't so interested in the study of TES, because why would I learn things that I did not attain, I need to first get the things that would bring me to attainment. Even if you don't know the study of TES, when you attain the connection and you begin to work in connection you will begin to discover in you all of the forces that the study of TES, is describing, do you understand? The most important thing for us now is more important connection.

S. The method that we disseminate is the method that went from Rabash to you, no one spoke like that?

R. No, they did Rav Kook was speaking about it, Kabbalist were talking about it from Ari, from the 16th century onward people were speaking and writing about it in great books also. Like Noam EliMelech wrote about it and Degel Machaneh Ephraim, .... there are many books about it, but not in a concrete way like Baal HaSulam.

S. Like in the writings of Shamati in the writings about the group it is a treasure that appeared only with him and you, so my question is do you think that you are now the horn that should be disseminated now, connection through integral education or something like that?

R. In the morning lesson is the main part also in the evening but in the evening not as many people can connect and from the lessons it is also the tens, daily work in our tens and dissemination.

S. Disseminating what? The broadest dissemination to the masses is what you mean when you're talking about being a horn for all of the Nations, connection and integral education or is it still the wisdom of Kabbalah?

R. It depends on who, depends to whom, every layer of the people, layer of the world has its own approach.

40. S. (1:32:29) How do we explain this importance to the present people because they are in different circumstances and view different things as important?

R. Try and if not still you will wait a bit and soon states will come that they will want to hear, because they will feel that there is no remedy for their state, there is no choice. Either we advance on the path of light forward, connection or by the suffering that will push us from behind, one of the two.

41. S. (1:33:33) When we want to disseminate, we normally don't say that the power of connection comes from the Creator, sometimes it feels like when we don't mention it we could sound like other groups, do you think that people can already hear our voice of connection comes from the Creator?

R. I think yes but don't say Creator, say the general Force dwelling in all of reality and in this way it is working on all of us and all of humanity, this is the way it is. Who is the Creator the Creator is come and see that if you reveal him there is such a force dwelling in the world and this Force wants to connect all of the parts of the world into one system, one mechanism. The force that organizes all of these parts together in that one system is called Creator.

42. S. (1:34:42) Why is the voice of the Shofar, the horn, meaning the method of connection, why will it be heard more than the voice of the ego in the masses?

R. Because we are in a process where all of the bad forces are more and more disturbing us, they bring problems and troubles in the pandemic and all kinds of other problems. This is why it will be easier for us to explain to humanity that there is a remedy for all of these things. That it comes to us from the connection just like their particles that harm, that they come from the disconnection between us and this way through the connection between us, the good parts will come, the parts that heal us. I recommend you think before you ask and then you will see that you can already answer all of these questions on your own.

*Reader “ The revelation of Kabbalah to all the Nations is the Revelation of Eliyahu”(1:36:32 - 1:38:09) reads twice*

43. R. We need to advance, and we will reach a state where all of the secrets, secrets means what I don't feel, what I don't understand, what is concealed for me is called a secret. So when we will reach a stage that everything that is concealed will start being revealed, that is called the revelation of Eliyahu, that all of the connection between all of the parts of creation from one end to the other, from things that we don't know and don't see and all of the worlds, the upper ones, because our world is like a little pebble, a seed of mustard compared to all of those worlds very small, so in such a way we need to review and that will be called the revelation of Eliyahu.

*Reader “Disclosing the Kabbalah to all the nations is the precondition for the complete Redemption”( 1:39:06 - 1:42:03) reads twice*

44. R. He wants to say that before the great blowing of the Shofar before it there is a silence, complete silence and you feel that nothing in the world is changing this is how it's going to take place and we can't make anything of this or ourselves, but we are evil and this is how we are and we can't do anything with our life. That's why he says before the great sound of the Shofar there is a silence, this is the time we are actually ending. That we have to understand that we have no ability ourselves to do anything on our own.

*Reader continues “Every greatness requires prior smallness...”(1:42:51 - 1:43:51)*

45. R. Meaning we are now on the seam between the silence and Revelation and it depends upon us, how we and how the whole world will go from that complete silence, from the concealment to Revelation. It all depends upon our efforts also in the connection between us, that we will be able to be that pipeline and also our dissemination, that we will have some kind of desire, some kind of movement from the nations of the world in order to connect to us. It is clear right?

46. S. (1:44:41) You answered a woman's question that Unity is more important than dissemination. How can we strike the right balance between investing in our unity and being the messiah's horn for the world?

R. As much as you can invest in connection more and as much as you can invest in dissemination, that is it not to calculate how much this or that just do your best. And this and in that. If you calculate you are already in an egoistic calculation.

47. S. (1:45:33) We feel the importance, day after day but what more can we do?

R. What else can we add on our behalf? Everything possible, everything we can also the main thing is the intention, and also the deeds, disseminate and everything we can. We have one place, the internet in all kinds of directions. ourselves we have to learn how all the articles of connection, of our role, the correction and as much as we can to implement it in the connection between us.

48. S. (1:46:44) Baal HaSulam mentions this soft silence and I feel in our Kli that there is a scream, our hearts is as if we are praying and asking to connect, but we don't know how, so the question is let us say we as a ten have a given amount of time to do one of two things, either to disseminate on the Internet or bring as many friends to the morning lesson?

R. I don't know I'm also practically not strong, but we have all kinds of systems and that is what we do, in your group I see one friend there that is also in charge of this so speak to him, maybe he has some new ideas I don't know we have to think, but we can be all concerned about it together. From all of us around the globe being concerned about it we will get a new mind, a new feeling and a new ability, new forces it all depends as much as we disseminate this and go together to solve our problem. It all comes from above and we will get it, there will be a solution to every problem, we can't say that we can't. That means that you're not realizing yourself correctly, otherwise, we can't do anything, but if we make the right efforts, from above we get the forces. knowledge, mind, physical forces, we get everything, what we're lacking. Meaning that if you say that I can't, it means that you are not in an action that awakens the Creator.

S. We will do everything possible because we have nothing left in life besides this but beyond the framework of the friends who come 24/7, for example yesterday we shifted and connected two groups of men so we had quite a few friends who were connected in the morning lesson, how do we create that connection or something else?

R. This is not for me, you have a system and talk to them that explain what they know, I'm giving you lessons and that is it. I'm not an expert in disseminating. I say a few words to push you into it but not that now I'm going to talk to you about it and teach you.

49. S. (1:50:19) His group learned from Eliyahu should we work in the group to create a situation and the special place for Eliyahu?

R. Eliyahu is a special degree of attaining the Creator, we need to do what we are supposed to in our time exactly as Baal HaSulam writes, that is it. We have no connection to this degree called Eliyahu. So, relax from all of these things, don't start fantasizing about this.

*49A. WSQ: (1:51:14) What did this article give us. What did we get from the article of the Messiah Shofar? What can we extract from this article? Let's discuss the article and summarize it between us.
