1.Rav’s Introduction: Yes, we have already started to talk about it for a few days both in the morning and especially in the afternoon and I recommend people listen to it again. Because those Arei Miskenot are those same places that we need to build before we enter revelation of the Creator. That our entire state, our desire it appears to us in a very unique manner, in an afflicted manner that we cannot by our qualities attain spirituality and we have no hope, and as much as we try we build something out of our qualities. We’re incapable and we always reveal more and more just how deeply sunk we are in our ego, and we have no chance, no hope of getting out of it. This state is called Arei Miskenot, cities of affliction, cities of danger.

Danger that we will remain in them and never exit to spirituality and also they themselves have nothing, it's not that we enjoy something from them but they are truly cities of affliction. We need to go through this state to locate it, to feel it and understand that it is our nature and when we overcome it in these states, on this Malchut then we are privileged with revelation, exiting from the exile, to revelation, to redemption. Then those same vessels that appeared empty, that had nothing, specifically in them we begin to reveal the Creator that is thus revealed to us. So let's read, let's continue. Ask. Let's scrutinize. We have nowhere to run with these things. They need to be clear to us both in heart and mind, in sensation and only that way we can exit from them.

Excerpt 89 (03:06)

2. R. (03:18) Cities of affliction meaning they were for Israel who is directed, Yashar El, direct to the Creator. There can be two meanings here. I want to reach the Creator maybe to reveal Him, to grasp Him, that’s called to reach the Creator. Or that I want to be Yashar El to get closer to Him according to equivalence of form, and then I am called Israel, Yashar El.

Excerpt 89 (in other words all their work…)

3. R. (03:51) Meaning all was swallowed again and again in our ego and even if we do some correct work or action in connection between us, studying and gathering and all sorts of things, as much as we did maybe for months or even years and where did it go? Later we learn that there is a great sea, the Sitra Achra, the other side that swallows everything, and then later it will be thrown up. As our will to receive swallows everything and afterwards all it accumulates inside it’s all in use in one shot in order that we will be able to use it with the intention to bestow.

Excerpt 89 (and Israel remained poor…)

4. R. (04:53) Because they didn’t feel from day to day that something was added to them.

Excerpt 89 (we should also interpret…)

5. R. (05:25) There are two things here. In one state for those who were yearning for the Creator they do not feel these qualities, these thoughts, these desires. They don’t feel that they are advancing towards the goal and those who are called the slaves of Pharoah the truth is that they feel that they have something. They understand more, they feel more they are receiving more but not so much that you could say that they are happy and satisfied. Although as it is written Pithom and Rameses were for the workers of Pharaoh, very nice cities.

Excerpt 89 (thus the meaning of and they built…)

6. R. (06:25) For those who yearn to reach the Creator meaning those same qualities in us that yearn to reach adhesion with the Creator, then this state is afflicted meaning that there is no benefit from it; no vessels of bestowal, revelation of the Creator, adhesion.

Excerpt 89 (and to Pharaoh Pithom and Raamses…)

7. R. (06:52) Meaning that really beautiful, good, understanding and awareness, mood and so on. Meaning it depends on what state a person is in.

Excerpt 89 (this is because all the work of Israel…)

8. R. (07:22) Meaning that they were in the aspect of Israel, Yashar El.

Excerpt 89 (they did see fertility…)

9. S. (08:03) My question is regarding these old cities Raamses and Pithom. We get used to our daily activities and the will to receive because it's comfortable. But in regards to every day should be awakened as a new day, how with these two opposites should we discern between them?

R. This is according to your intention and what you want. If you want to reach adhesion to the Creator then in this you reveal day by day that you are farther from Him, from getting closer to Him, from adhering to Him. If you are yearning for states that would be clearer and more understood then you can take from the wisdom of Kabbalah and become wiser, know how to speak, philosophize and so on. It all depends on a person. What are the qualities with which he goes out to reveal reality and it depends on man’s desire.

10. S. (09:55) By those three parameters Rav, group and books does not work here?

R. The group and the books and the studies and what we receive from the teacher this all works and slowly accumulates in the person and then the person according to what he yearns = he can see if he has it or not, whether he wants understanding and greater mind, greater attainment or he wants qualities of bestowal or to feel how much he understands more. I all depends on the person either he wants to receive his progress in the vessels of reception or he wants to receive his progress in the vessels of bestowal, it is one of the two, and in this we differentiate between the person who is progressing correctly and the person who is not progressing correctly but incorrect progress is also not so bad if the person continues slowly, slowly, it will subjugate and change him and brings him to the complete wholeness.

11. S. (11:28) When there are two discernments intermittently is it not good, we have to be always?

R. It is ok the main thing is to continue and not to waste time and this is called to be in the lesson on a constant basis, to be in the group, day to day work with the group, to prepare yourself to the lesson tomorrow and in such a way to progress. It is a very important to prepare yourself for the lesson, that you receive the topic of the lesson for next day, what exactly are going to learn, you have to read these things you have to translate them, whoever is needing a different languages and you need to maybe add all sorts of additions there, what you think will help you more to understand, to prepare questions maybe, ahead of time and all this is work on the topic because we precisely advance according to the process we have to go through and this is desirable that we touch this process, be in contact with it. Most are in this process, there are those who are truly now going through this process of sensation of the exile and the work in the exile and the preparation for the redemption and there are those who are not there yet, it is not so bad, it will come, it will come.

12. S. (13:21) Why is it that we are pushed each time anew, to build these affliction cities although time after time, the king of Egypt takes everything again and again?

R. Because the king of Egypt is taking everything and it is swallowed like a water in sand we have to begin anew.

S. But what about the experience when I see that I'm building and he is taking, building and he is taking, I am not going to build next time?

R. This is not correct as next time you scrutinize the goal even more and the means even more and make even more of an effort to reach the goal and such a way this is how many many times have we gone through and this is the work in exile. In exile, in this state meaning, in this, that control you through the forces of separation, of confusion and in such this way you make efforts to restrain yourself to adhesion with the friends and with the Creator together, this is how it works.

Excerpt 90 (14:40)

13. R. (16:10) This is what we feel that there are people there are people who are already many years on this path and where is the work, where is the summary and where is the result of this or what is happening to us why are we not feeling the needed results, the revelation of the Creator, understanding the way or something, but everything starts anew each day each day and this is it was intended to begin with. Because they are not capable of working on a continuous manner on the goal so our progress to the goal goes intentionally in such a way, that it is like back and forth, back and forth but when it is back, it is not really back, but it is like the wheel which is turning and is going both forward and back at the same time but in sum total it is the manner of its progress. It is like also an alternating current or all sorts of other technical things in our lives or let's say day and night, this period, of having different periods, it is all together helping us to progress and then we have to be aided by patience to continue on the path.

14. S. (17:54) Can you give us an example of the difference between the intention to receive in the work and intention to bestow, what is the essential difference between them relative to the goal?

R. Relation to the goal, if I receive I am using my vessels of reception, if I am receiving with the intention of bestowal then I am using my vessels of bestowal in the opposite than how they were built to begin, with not in the intention to receive but in the intention to bestowal, if I do not want to receive anything in my vessels than I am in restriction. If I participate with the foreign vessels, with the friends that I join myself to their work then I do not receive myself anything but I am there only to support them. There are a few types of work both in the vessels of reception and the verses of bestowal these are the states we are in.

15. S. (19:25) How can we check ourselves if we are in the sea of the Sitra Achra and how can we get out of it?

R. In what state we are in we need to see this, that in sum total the states I go through, are we in connection with the friends, are we turning to the Creator and how do you think about today compared to yesterday and about tomorrow. In sum total all our relations to the states we are in can we determine where we are in Pithom, in Raamses, or in other works in Egypt, we are not even in Egypt already outside of Egypt this all depends on our examinations, our scrutinizing.

16. S. (20:50) In a state when our efforts dissolve and go elsewhere, what is the solution to these states, what has to happen in a qualitative inversion?

R. It is written that it will swallow and then it will vomit it out, the same Sitra Achra meaning our ego that day by day and again receives the portions from the lessons, from our connection, from all kinds of activities that receives and receives and receives and hears and listens and it seems that nothing is changing in our heart or mind, nothing is changing. Later, that we reveal that it is like a sea in which everything is swallowed into this sea. The time comes that this matter is opened up and it is written that the pallet swallows, it is force that swallows everything and it also vomits it out, it gives back everything that was accumulated inside and that is what we receive to the exit from Egypt. That we build Pithom and Raamses and like the sea will be swallowed into the sea and what was built, it is like built on sand that falls into the sand and disappears.

Later it rises up from there in return and we see that really we have built by our ego very nice cities, very beautiful cities. If it was not within our ego the work, each time we would be in a tendency to the goal, meaning the Sitra Achra here, operates in a manner that it cheats itself. We get up to the lesson in a way that it cheats itself that we are yearning for knowledge and everything. All these are things we perform by our ego, by the Sitra Achra. This is why it is called assistance against oneself and that is what the Creator said, that it is possible to begin the care, the correction. As it is written I have created the evil inclination, the same evil, that created being and they can progress to the goal of creation, specifically the evil inclination pushing them from the back and driving them from the front, the same goal of connection and unity with the Creator. When that evil inclination completes the work then the person reveals the privilege of the evil inclination that he has reached the goal and there is no evil inclination, it was not created to begin with. Rather in order to confuse us that we would be drawn to the same spiritual goal and we would be able to reach it and there it would be getting an impression for our benefit.

S. I want to be more precise, that measure of the evil inclination we have to correct?

R. How many times do we need to begin to build our spiritual state called Pithom and Raamses, that depends on the depth of the person's soul. There are those who reveal this quickly, if their vessels are smaller and there are those who develop slowly, with difficult work and they don't see it so quickly and they don't see the summary, so quickly. if it is a great big soul. There is nothing you can do, it is all according to the laws of nature.

17. S. (25:41) How to reach a common scrutiny in the ten about the state we are in whether it is Pithom or Raamses?

R. That is still not for us, we cannot do that scrutiny yet because each one is in their own private state and we are not connected between us enough in order that we would cause together to each other, elevations and falls, we are still not connected enough in order to have this state. Elevation and descent and the back and forth we have as actions in our spiritual face that is Incorporated and composed of ten parts changing, the different and opposing and they rise above themselves and reach connection in a single action. We do not have that yet but I very much hope that we can do that soon, this is already something that is already outside of Egypt.

18. S. (27:18) In the physical work it is better not to start the spiritual work in the spiritual Partzuf the Taamim, the spiritual taste in the Partzuf?

R. Where is it written that you are talking about you have to ask about what we are learning on the topic.

Excerpt 91 (28:02)

19. R. (28:40) This is like v truly when we are going from state to state, we remember nothing because everything is erased.

Reader continues: (28:55) “This, all of this was….”

20. R. (29:43) It means that each time when we are going to connection and we fall from it and once again there is some progress and again we fall but all these things by them we start to begin to build something. It is built on sand just like this nice store cities, Pithom and Raamses, that we are not successful to build them but later they arise from the sand and we see that yes we did build, we did do. We could not see our building, what we built in order so we would continue each time in new spiritual differentiation from zero and another cube and other brick and this is how we build.

Excerpt 92 (30:45)

21. R. (31:25) Yes, this means that here we see that the shells, there are no shells in truth, meaning those things we are not capable of doing by force in heart and mind because we are small, they accumulate in nature and they're kept there and later we receive the result from them and we can use them.

Excerpt 93 (31:56) Twice

22. S. (35:27) We do not feel that we are at the state of beginning, is this normal?

R. Look, if you do not feel that you are on the path it could be that you still has not entered the path or maybe already completed it. The whole world, all the created beings have to go through these states and there is nobody who could escape this, so if it is a sign that we have not yet reached this, because, if we have already gone through this, then we would understand what we are talking about.

23. S. (36:34) I wanted to ask what are those cities of affliction for us, Arei Miskanot?

R. The cities of affliction for those who go to the correction of the soul, this is called that they are receiving it all sorts of sensations, thoughts that pass over these people and he makes the effort to connect them to the goal, to the Creator, to the friends and the person sees that nothing is working and he is in these states, already in these states for a many years these, pushing forward and he does not see any sign of a success. This is the labor in Egypt in the exile, when everything is built on the sand and despite that he sees that there is no success, the person does not leave, he continues and continues. Although sometimes he truly does not see himself he does not have any forces, any mood or it seems to him that maybe it is not going to work, this whole business and why waste time.

On the other hand what am I going to do with the rest of the world so can we do, there is only this world and by the calculations less spiritual, more spiritual and the person is progressing and when he reaches a certain state, then he starts to see that everything that he has done, it all comes back to him in understanding, in sensation, in revelation. He begins to understand and feel that he was truly in exile from spirituality and afterwards meaning, now when bit-by-bit everything accumulates to a large sum he now sees the summary and this is called the pallet swallows, the shell swallowed it, the desire to receive of the person that it was always thinking about where is my benefit, where do I get it, it was swallowed and now it returns that Klipa, shell throws it back up and the person can receive it and already build on top of it the spiritual structure.

S. If I may continue, what is the goal of building and then it gets destroyed and at the end it gives back everything, what is the idea?

R. We have no vessels to accumulate or store or build anything in our vessels of reception, we cannot build anything spiritual. If we would see in our spiritual or vessels of a reception to build spirituality then it would not be spiritual it was truly be a shell because we would work in order to build for ourselves, for our own physical selfish benefit and that's why it is all swallowed and if we continue each time anew, that we want to reach some form of bestowal then slowly, slowly these things accumulate bit-by-bit to a large sum and then we receive the result already in a correct way, in a correct spiritual way.

S. So what is happening at the end of the process when we certainly get it all back, why suddenly they keep taking it, tearing it down and then suddenly they give it back to you?

R. Because it is not that they hear, we do not have in our vessels of reception the ability to store spiritual things but bit by bit we can store and when these little parts reach some unique number and quantity and quality, a Seah, a certain measure then it is revealed, it is already revealed and then we can keep it and the desire to receive won’t take it on the intention to receive.

S. We can say these are processes to prepare the vessels?

R. Yes of course, bit-by-bit it accumulates to a large sum.

S. Today we have the vessels of reception, so we can’t receive, what will happen suddenly so we can receive?

R. That you are in sorrow in these vessels that you cannot do any actions of bestowal with them and each time you go back and seemingly what you did was not successful the previous time and you go back over it and you continue and each time again you come to the lesson and again reach despair. You continue more and more and these are things are called bits or small parts and these bits you are willing to let go, okay, I did not succeed yesterday, not so bad, I concede today. You come the next day but what happened today, that you came today and yesterday you did not consider this anymore, this is called that it entered into the reception to bestow.

That you have seemingly no more desire to receive with intention to receive you did not succeed, you see that you didn't succeed, you let go and it went and you continue, it not just disappear specifically the sea of the Sitra Achra, the shell keeps it, that it was all in the intention to receive that you had before but that you have become despaired from it and you didn't want it for all kinds of reasons you continue more like a baby that despite that it does not work for him and again and again, he tries, this is how we grow and then we receive in return. That it is the whole method of swallowing everything and vomiting it up, it is these the essence of Pithom and Raamses, that a person builds out of despair on yesterday and on the hope for today and tomorrow.

S. Last question, what keeps the person on the path and this development so in spite of everything getting ruined then we still do not have vessels, how do we get hope for attaining a true vessel?

R. It is there a root of the soul and as much as the person understands that he is nothing else to do in life and nonetheless goes into faith above reason, there is no choice, how do you all hold on, just explain to me? Thousands of people on the path so how do you hold on, the Creator also helps us that this state does not give us a big thing to draw ourselves for each and everyone, in this world, in our external life gives even more disappointments and the problems and this way the Creator is helping us so it is written all that the Creator loves he shall prove them.

24. S. (45:37) You said about the participation in the lesson in the preparation for the lesson.

R. Yes, that is nothing to talk about here.

S. So we have to accumulate bits during the course of the day. You said that we do not need to meet twice a day for half an hour but spread it out so that the whole day we will be in connection for preparation for the lesson.

R. Yes this is more beneficial. It’s better than the meeting once a day for 30 minutes to divide these 30 minutes into thirty 1 minute meetings. Well maybe that’s exaggerated, but 5-6 meetings.

S. So what is the work that has to be over the course of the day?

R. Other than those meetings?

S. Maybe we begin with the short meetings and we read some part of the lesson?

R. We have to remind ourselves how do we live, the most important points from the lesson, today’s lesson and if we have time tomorrow’s lesson.

S. Okay. So if there is a world prayer and connection in the ten and I cannot participate right now because I am working what should I do if I cannot participate?

R. I do not know what to propose. Maybe you can record it and listen to it later but it is best to be impressed by it because you are incorporated with others. It does not matter what you’re hearing, it is important that you're hearing it through the friends. It’s more beneficial, it works in you more.

S. If there is nothing I can do because I am at work and I know that the entire world Kli are meeting together and I cannot be with them right now physically or virtually, what do I need to think? Think that I am with them in the prayer?

R. Think that you want to be with them but you are under the control of your landlord or boss and your boss bought your time and you have to work during the time according to the direction of your boss. That is also accepted in the general providence.

25. S. (48:21) Item 93, Pithom. To be devoured by the abyss is this rational or an irrational fear? How to control it? What is the proper approach to solve this fear of heights?

R. It doesn't matter. You need to strengthen yourself through the connection with the friends and come to a state that even when you fall into the abyss that you fall together with the others. You have no problem. You are in your soul and hence there needs to be no fear whatsoever, Try it.

26. S. (49:28) To continue a previous question, ultimately what city needs to built and remaining?

R. This does not belong to as right now but the only city that should be left is Jerusalem from the word Ir shalem, complete fear. Meaning we have only fear or trepidation towards the Creator, the complete one. The book of Zohar explains the meaning of fear and all the different types of fears and what is the complete fear, we’ll read about it. That’s what will be left, Ir shalem. Then again it all depends on people. It is not a city there somewhere in Israel, it’s a quality that we reach, that we build relative to the Creator, with complete fear towards Him. And inside this vessel called complete fear we receive all of the light of Ein Sof which builds for us this concept of Jerusalem.

27. S. (51:06) Israel needs to work in bestowal. What do we receive when we work in bestowal?

R. Inside the vessel of bestowal we receive the revelation of the Creator, we become exactly like Him. Because we acquire the quality of the Creator in place of the quality of reception that we have. The quality of bestowal is what we receive and inside this quality of bestowal we begin to feel the way the Creator feels and according to the similarity between these qualities we approach adhesion, we come to the same state as the Creator. This is the form, the purpose of our development.

28. S. (52:14) I wanted to tell you before asking that I feel like these words I am going to ask are kind of blasphemy. We are told that whatever we can do, do and in the ten we try to do all that we can to connect and we also know that.

R. This is all talking about the connection.

S. Then at the end of everything we have to turn around and pray to the Creator. No matter what we do we still have this last step. It feels to me like this is like a very selfish Creator, it almost feels like ourselves.

R. Perhaps He has additional light that he wants to distribute to us, to give us, and we need to discover the vessel, to show the vessel on our part to receive the light that He has left for us. This is why at the end of the work there is also prayer.

29. S. (54:03) You say that all the bits accumulate into a large sum in the sea of the Sitra Achra. Where is this sea?

R. The sea of the Sitra Achra is in that place where the Creator is, where we are. Except we have to discover this reality that is included entirely out of a vessel and the light. What we do is we sanctify, we correct the vessel from the state the Creator created it in - I created the evil inclination, up to this state when this vessel will resemble the Creator.

30. S. (54:59) If our work falls into the Klipot, shells, how do I know that I am doing correct work??

R. You do not need to know. You will never know if you are doing the right work or not because you need to be in one hundred percent in order to bestow. So every time you do this work even to bestow, you will feel that you did not do enough and that next time you will do better. You wish to build everything on your will to receive, on your knowledge, your reason, your intellect, your own power. That is completely not spiritual.

S. So what indication do we have? How do I know that I'm going the right way?

R. As much as you can be devoted and nothing else. Only in devotion. I have no feeling, no intellect, no understanding, no sensation, no power, I have nothing. I have only one thing. I want to be adhered to the Creator with all my strength, all my thoughts, all my desires, and this is how I wish to advance. Without “I”, rather according to how much I can cancel the “I”.

31. S. (56:44) Continuing the topic of the lesson over the course of the day, you spoke about the importance of listening with their friends. How to do this correctly, how to hear the friends correctly?

R. I wish to hear what they are saying and I wish to relate seriously to what they perceive and what they discuss and this is how I am incorporated in them and by this I position myself as a zero relative to them just as Rabash advises us to do in the connection in the society.

32. S. (57:33) What does it mean a holy soul?

R. A holy soul means that part of our will to receive that acquires the intention to bestow. That part is called a holy soul.

33. S. (57:55) How can we help the friends in the ten to exit their state when they feel everything enters the abyss?

R. Explain to ourselves that the fact that it is swallowed into the abyss, it is for our own sake because what we have done is now kept securely and then we will receive it later on and in a corrected way. This is the meaning of he swallowed all the riches. The force of the Sitra Achra swallowed it and then he vomits it out, he gives it back.

34. S. (58:41) You said that the Creator beats those that he likes, so how does He relate to those he does not like?

R. He loves especially those who come close to Him and he hands them out more blows so they will advance correctly.

35. S. (59:10) Why does this happen? Why does the Creator need our suffering?

R. Without suffering we cannot disconnect from our will to receive, from our ego.

36. S. (59:31) The sensation that Pharoah takes everything is very good because each time there is an opportunity to build something anew. Is it correct to be in joy that all the efforts are swallowed into the ground?

R. We are not so smart to say if it is swallowed or not swallowed. We have to try and perform as many acts of a connection and bestowal and whatever happens happens. If nothing is left then nothing is left. We continue each day and start anew.

37. S. (01:00:08) Is there a way to protect ourselves from the Klipot? To weaken their power?

R. To weaken the Klipot there is no way. Rather I need to work against the Klipot, together with the Klipot. But the Klipot cannot disappear because those are our vessels, except we need to learn how to work correctly with them and then receive all the rewards, everything we have done inside the corrected Klipot. The Klipa, the shell protects the fruit. We talked about it, we learned about it. That is why the more we grow, let's say an apple that is covered in a shell, a peel, that peel protects the apple until it matures. And when it ripens we pick it, we peel off the outer layer and we eat it.

38. S. (01:01:28) We keep repeating the point that if one has a big soul it takes longer. The question is what is a big soul or not a big soul? What is the meaning, what is the difference?

R. The difference is regarding the size of the soul, the size of the vessel. What quantity and quality does this vessel have according to its place in the system of Adam HaRishon? There are those whose souls are very central so they must bestow to others much more than regular souls and there are those who don’t have the tendency for it or the opportunity, and they have to make sure that they correct themselves and their ten and that’s it. But nevertheless each one in their ten, that is a certainty. Without a ten there is no correction, there is nothing less than ten.

39. S. (01:02:40) From day to day I feel that I am incapable of making the smallest step forward even in corporeality without requesting aid from the ten. Is there a way to ask for support from the ten without bothering them?

R. Try without words but only in thoughts. In thought only together with the Creator try to convince the ten to help you.

40. S. (01:03:19) I do different things. I participate in our ten’s meetings and actions of dissemination but I feel that I'm doing nothing for correction and also not giving contentment to the Creator. Is that a thought of Pharaoh?

R. No, those are also good, correct thoughts, you have to keep going. All in all women are advancing well but just not enough. Meaning correctly but not enough, not sufficient. There are more opportunities to apply more pressure with their thoughts and intentions between them and the Creator. Each one is treating the other one with gloves. We have to have a more common demand, and this common demand is made up of an example of ourself and demand through the ten for everyone. I am not saying to someone that they have to do something but I turn to the ten generally, let us do this or that. Meaning we have to awaken, awaken the group all the time. Thank you women and we’ll go back to men.

41. S. (01:05:40) The will to receive has so many tactics. He can confuse us constantly as we try to advance. So why do the Kabbalists need to give us the story with the Pharaoh? We can see the Pharaoh in the museum, we can see pyramids and we can see all of these things that are totally confusing. Why don't they just talk to us about some inner work that relates to us right here? Why do we have to have this picture?

R. First of all the question is right. Answer: each spiritual force must appear to some extent in his corporal branch, it is a law because nature is round. So even the highest force must appear in the lower ones and you don't have any force in the lower ones that does not reach all the way up to the top. It’s all round. The form of the circle demands things to work this way, that’s it. That's how we need to learn it. We have no problem with that. When we see those corporeal forces and we say something about it in spirituality or the spiritual forces that appear in corporeality, in the end it will appear in such a way that we detect both as a force, simply a force.

S. Can you say that those Isralites there were like us going through inner work and Pharaoh was taking away their ability to connect with each other? Or do we say that it's more like some story where someone was whipping them?

R. We are constantly advancing towards the end of correction, all of humanity, everyone, including the still, vegetative and animate, let alone people. So we just need to try and do what is required of us and see how all the parts of reality are moving in that same direction. Specifically today when we are going through so many states. We’re going through personal states and the world is going through general states, everything is connecting more and more and moving in one direction and you will see how this flow is becoming just one powerful stream.

42. S. (01:09:19) Raamses, when they fall is that sign of failing of desert? I feel myself useless for myself and for others. So how can I work in such a state of emptiness and not feel so useless?

R. We need to hasten times. It's written who is Israel? Those who sanctify the time. Meaning as quickly as possible they rise from every state and they keep going and it all depends on how much we can hold one another, awaken one another. So please do this work where each time during the day you awaken the friends and you demand of yourself progress. Progress towards connection between us and with the Creator, only these two actions. Connect between us and to the Creator. So try. Try to do this as many times during the day, remind one another and let's go.

43. S. (01:10:46) What does it mean to correct the ten?

R. Correct the ten means that you care about it’s correction and advancement towards the Creator as I have just mentioned.

44. S. (01:11:07) Today you also said without me, without the self. And yesterday you said besides myself I am incapable of taking anything. I shall tell my friends in the workshop that we have to search for everything in the sensation and not the mind. Is that correct?

R. Keep going and you will get an answer.

45. S. (01:11:43) Who exits Egypt, the person or his ten?

R. A person in a ten.

46. S. (01:11:57) I want to feel this matter of building. So I am building, trying to advance. So each time try to get closer to the correct frequency?

R. Yes that's correct.

47. S. (01:12:24) What is the additional exertion that we can give at this moment?

R. Only to awaken the friends to connection and in the direction of the Creator. There's no point yearning for the Creator unless it's from within the connection.

48. S. (01:12:57) You said before that spiritual phenomena we cannot grasp to get in our vessels of reception. So what is in a spiritual vessel, a vessel of bestowal that can give us this?

R. Equivalence of form, equivalent of qualities between the vessel and the fulfillment.

S. What about the phenomenon of connection that we are in. Congresses or connection between people, between hearts?

R. By that they are building a sort of spiritual vessel. It's not entirely spiritual but rather along the way. As you remember Rabash writes you cannot fill wine in bags and flour in barrels. Each filling has its own vessel, its own container.

49. S. (01:14:07) I would like to know what is the difference between me and the evil inclination? Is the evil inclination something inside me or some other force?

R. You, is the desire, the desire to enjoy, a desire to satisfy yourself, to fill yourself with pleasure, that is it. Besides this, within this desire, deep inside of it, there is something called a part of God above, a tiny little dot. This is the beginning of your soul if you were correctly and all of the forces of your desire will shift, will move and connect into that dot, into that point, into your soul and then the soul will grow, it will gain volume and in this volume, you will be able to discover the Creator. Good luck.

50. S. (01:15:30) How can I advance, how can I progress if my achievements are taken away from me?

R. Precisely by this you advance because after you feel that you have failed, the Creator is giving you new vessels, new understanding, feeling, ability, everything new and then you don't use the vessels that you have spoiled. This is really the correct and greatest, and great help from the Creator to person.

51. S. (01:16:25) What is considered the accumulation of the ‘little pennies’? If I do an action and I do not ask for help from the Creator, is this also an accumulation or I should always ask for His help for that to count?

R. No, it's not mandatory, you have to work according to what is given to you.

52. S. (01:16:51) Those two actions, connection between us and towards the Creator that we always hear. It’s felt as if it becomes one action, that the connection between us is also the place of the Creator?

R. No, we still have to turn to Him as well; otherwise your connection will be even worse than lack of connection. It is like felons, like a city of criminals, it has to be directed towards the Creator and ideally, initially from the very beginning we want to connect to the Creator and that's why we connect among ourselves.

S. But that's what I'm saying: I can't really understand, maybe the need to discern between those two actions, between connection and the plea because the connection is the plea to the Creator?

R. No, no, no, it's not the same thing.

S. Can you explain it?

R. The work of connection, let's say you have felons, the Mafia. They have great connection among themselves, they even cut their fingers as a mark of loyalty for their connection.

S. That is clear, I'm asking about us. Let’s say we're in some meeting during the day; let's say what you are also inspired from the world Kli, that we have a prayer twice in a day, that is a plea to the Creator?

R. It's not turning to the Creator, it is still an attempt to connect.

S. Okay, because we define it as the world Kli prayer, that everybody opens their hearts and asks the Creator?

R. If out of your connection you also turn to the Creator and pray to the Creator, then it's correct but the two are distinct actions. It's called “from the love of people to the love of the Creator”.

53. S. (01:19:18) To continue, something yesterday also grabbed me. You gave advice yesterday that we have to start every day anew, that everything falls into the abyss and you have to keep going.

R. Yes, “and it will be as new in your eyes”.

S. So that ‘new’, I heard you say don't do it with your own forces, it’s a waste of time but right away turn to the Creator?

R. Starting anew is the best way to adhere to the group and from there, turn to the Creator.

S. So how do we start anew: after you discover that everything fell into the sand and I have nothing?

R. So I'm repeating myself: for lack of strength, for helplessness, just turn to the group. Take strength from their mutual responsibility and from this, start building your Independence and then help become incorporated in them with your strength and proceed, keep going.

S. What is that action to fall to the group?

R. You fall because you are powerless, your helplessness, you’re helpless like a baby.

S. We know to extract forces from the group we need to make efforts, we need to see them as great, we need to annul ourselves otherwise I could be beside them and not feel.

R. But you are already in that state after you fell, at least to some extent.

S. Why after the fall, the heart is clogged, the mind?

R. Good, good, good, and now try to build from this the greatness from the environment because you are a zero.

S. So where is the Creator in this action?

R. You do not have a Creator, you are in a decline, you are in the fall.

S. So what about ascribing this state to Him?

R. What do you think, you can go ‘click’ and I'm in contact with the Creator? And He is in my field of vision, how can that be?

S. What is the order of the work?

R. The order of the work is to first of all, define to yourself what exactly is a descent, a fall. If you have no Creator, you have nothing so what can you do? You can only assemble, gather your broken pieces and then maybe, gradually, connect them to the group, that's where you start. When you come to some connection with the ten from that you will begin to rise to the Creator along with them.

S. And what is it that you told Ahmet that to begin with I go to the Creator and that's where I go to the connection?

R. That is not because of a descent, that’s when you’re already directed, when you have some connection. We are still not on the same line, we are not aligned.

S. So could you gather for a second?

R. It depends what state you are in to begin with. Are you in a descent or an ascent or in between in what, what state are you in? From that you begin to work.

S. What’s that state here that “everything fell to the ground and you have nothing”?

R. Here, where?

S. When a person feels disconnected, the heart is blocked, he's just indifferent, disconnected?

R. Dead.

S. Yes, dead, so what now?

R. Nothing, the dead are free.

S. But he doesn't want to be free, he wants to work.

R. Ah, so he wants to work, so he’s not dead.

S. Okay, so what is he doing then? At least he can say in his mind. “I guess, I heard that there is None else Besides Him and He disconnected me even though I don't feel Him, I have this thought in my mind”, or not to do that? What do I start working with?

R. I don't know, there's so many philosophies you're saying, I'm talking about reality. Perhaps it's better for him in such a case to connect with the group, very simply, like a little child to grownups and be incorporated in them, and this way begin to revive himself. I think this is the most correct thing to do.

S. And how does he do it? What is this action of incorporating with them?

R. Whatever they do, he will do, just like a baby with grownups.

S. But it’s the middle of the day, each one is in his own thing, they’re probably doing something there?

R. If he’s got time, he should listen to the Morning lesson.

S. And how through the Morning lesson does he incorporate with the group?

R. It will give him strength, it will awaken him, we need to start somewhere. I don't understand you. What do you do when you have free time? When you're driving or when you do something when your mind and ears are free, available?

S. When does the Creator enter the work, when he starts incorporating in the group?

R. The Creator enters when we give Him permission to enter.

S. And it's not the beginning.

R. Whenever you give Him the permission to enter.

S. Okay.

R. I see you're happy, I will give him permission and He will enter.

54. S. (01:25:31) So we should not get too complicated with these things. I want adhesion with the Creator and if I don't feel it I have to go back to the ten, that is the best solution, right?

R. Being in the ten is always the best solution, always. Even falling, even falling, it doesn't matter in what state. But if it's together with the ten, it's better than being alone on top because “I dwell among My own people”, the Creator is present in the ten, always.

S. So only the ten, there's no state that I cannot turn to the Creator, only through the ten?

R. You finally hear something, we have been talking about this for many years.
