The World Kabbalah Convention – July 2023: “Everything is obtained by the power of prayer”

Lesson 1 "Before They Call, I Will Answer"

1. Rav’s Introduction: First of all, with love and trembling and great excitement, I see this holy audience that, together, wants to connect in order to attain the Creator, to feel Him as He dwells between us in that connection that we want to establish. [Techincal difficulties at Petach Tikva so Rav greets each participating Kli on camera] Well, I think altogether there is a connection between us. Oh wonderful, the can also hear me in the hall! I'm very happy, I'm excited and I'm truly in great trepidation, this pleasant deep fear, that we’re connecting and participating, because this is truly a connection for the sake of attaining a connection with the Creator such that He will fill us even more and mainly for us to feel Him, and to understand Him, reveal Him in our connection between us. And let's really hope that during these days, we will attain something of that.

“Before they call, I shall answer”, means that the Creator gives us first a desire and then we feel that we want; yes, He is always first and He manages us and only later we respond to what He does in us, creates in us, establishes us and stabilizes us. Hence, here, it's very important to come into an interaction with Him, a mutual connection with Him, such that all of us can feel on our behalf as one heart, one desire, one yearning, one inclination, everything towards Him from all of us together. And then we come to a state in which we can hear, in return, how He responds to us and what He does with us such that we will enter with Him into a mutuality in what we call “I for my beloved and my beloved for me.” And this is what we want to reach: a mutual connection between us.

Now we also can see Ankara has joined, wonderful, what a group of people, what a quantity. Well, and if so, I am really hopeful that one of our upcoming conventions will also be in Turkey and we will meet again with them together. And for the time being we will begin with a prayer in our hearts, the main thing is let's open our hearts, open them so that they will be open to all the connections, all the hearts, all our aspirations, expectations so that we will be mainly open for connection. Because in connection, according to our efforts, in that effort we will feel the Creator. That He's there and we invite Him to come from the hiding to revelation, so let's hope that we will be able to do this, let’s hope.

We will make efforts, we won't forget about it, and this way we will advance, also between us and then in the connection between us to the Creator, from the love of the created being to the love of the Creator, as it is written, and then we will start to feel how He is aimed towards us, how He cares for us, how He connects us, embraces us, cares for us. And is truly there filling all the places between us, the Creator connects between us, so when we make efforts to connect between us, we are actually inviting Him to be revealed in the connection between us. It all depends on the measure of quality of the connection between us, let’s hope we can attain all of this since all of this can be done quickly. And all of this we will feel, reveal that our Creator, the upper force that is one, unique, and special in all of nature.

So let's continue, if so, we have our excerpts, very beautiful special excerpts, very special ones. We also need to thank the people that collected them, assorted them, translated them, and prepared them for us so that we will be in a state where we can succeed from our connection, to feel that everything is attained with the force of prayer so that we will truly have such a prayer in which we will attain in it, the unity between us, and according to the extent of our unity we will attain the Creator.

Reading Excerpt #1 (09:20 - 10:28) “It is written, And it Shall Come to Pass that Before...”

2. R. (10:33) This is called, “Before they will call, I will hear”, where He wants to make our hearts such that we will want to turn to Him and feel Him, invite Him, draw Him, and so let's think now about this excerpt, read it for us again, please.

Reading Excerpt 1 again.

3. R. (12:11) Yes, this is as the Creator doesn't need our appeal because He, Himself, is building in us this deficiency to Him and we just need to add a deficiency for connection in a way that we will turn to Him. And in this, we will define the path that we call, “I for My beloved and My beloved for Me” so that we will have a mutual feeling in our connection and when we all connect we will bring ourselves to that same connection, in the same great common desire to which the Creator is certainly answering us, and then we will feel in all of our hearts the answer that comes to us from the Creator. As usual we will read an excerpt, if you want to read it again and again we will do it no problem, and then questions and answers in order to understand more what it is talking about.

4. S. (13:39) Concerning your explanation, what is it that makes it so special that the Creator will be first in us, so what makes it so special with us, what are we doing so that he will be first in us so that we can pray?

R. We are studying the wisdom of Kabbalah which is the perception of reality in a complete manner, and in that way we need to discover that the Creator is the first force, the one. the unique, and the special, and only this force exists alone in reality. And from Him existing, He created in us the desire to receive, created us, created in us the desire to receive, and through that He manages us and governs us. That's why with everything that we feel, everything that we can do, it's actually all the Creator organizes and arranges, and although we think it comes from us, it certainly comes from Him and we seemingly as we turn to Him or turn to the friends and it seems to us like it's us but it's not us. We are completely under the control of this upper force and He manages us this way and brings us to unification, to connection.

S. So what can we do more so that the Creator starts doing this more, being first more and more and more in us, what should we do then?

R. First of all, we need to remember that everything that comes to our mind, to our heart, is from the Creator because There is None Else Besides Him, it’s the only force that exists in nature. Then when we are already as created beings, creatures in His nature, then we can locate what are those thoughts and desires that He awakens in us. And we want to aim those thoughts to Him, first of all, because it comes from Him and all those tendencies of ours should be aimed towards connection. And then to the extent in which we try in the connection between us to aim our connection to the Creator then we come to a state in which we will feel, begin to feel ourselves and the Creator in the connection, in a certain connection, that's the connection we want to reach; this is called, ‘the revelation of the Creator to His created beings’.

5. S. (17:55) My question is, we gathered here and you can really feel that everyone gave their half shekel and now only the Creator can help, so the question is how do we now turn, from the very beginning, straight to the Creator and only wait for His help?

R. I think that for the last few months, maybe even more, maybe the last six months or maybe even a year, we are working on the connection; that there's nothing more important than the connection between us because from the connection we turn to the Creator. From the power of the connection between us He will hear us, and into the connection between us, He will give His answer, His response, and will be revealed in us. Therefore, we are trying to constantly hold on to the connection between us as much as possible, even more. Truly, where I don't have nothing inside of me, nothing remains, no concerns, only for me to be connected to all the friends where I see, feel, know them, through the screens, through the hearing in all kinds of ways. To be connected with them in one body, in one desire, in one inclination towards the Creator, this is what I need, besides that nothing, and this entire unification that we will be revealed between us will all be for us, together for us, so let's try.

6. S. (20:19) If the Creator is already giving us the prayer so what do we need to do in order to really reveal this complete prayer?

R. We need to pass the prayer, this prayer, into the heart of each and everyone, we need to connect between us and to pass this prayer from one to the other through all of our friends all over the world so that everyone will feel it. That we are connected in a string from one heart to another heart to another heart, like that, and this way we will sew ourselves, tie ourselves together and in this together we will begin to discover the Creator, His work, His address to us, what He wants from us, and through this connection between us we will start to talk to Him. We will start to develop a dialogue with Him as it is written ‘I for my beloved and my beloved for me’, and in this manner we will advance.

7. S. (22:03) Thank you everyone, it is such a beautiful feeling to see all of you at the Congress here, I'm really excited, I don't feel any more tired. The question is how can we totally forget about ourselves and think only about the friends?

R. We, ourselves, cannot, it's only the Creator that we talked about, that He is always first and therefore when we connect then He connects us. When we pray then He enters the prayer and arranges our prayer, and it's all Him. Only that we need to be connected in such a way that we need to invite Him, to take Him out of His hiding so He will be revealed more and more in all of our hearts.

8. S. (23:08) What do we need to be focused on to maximize the connection during this Congress?

R. We need to be focused on the connection between us, which the Creator arranges for us as the infrastructure for the connection between us, and then we need in our connecting between us and the Creator, to begin to demand from Him to truly connect between us to the extent in which we will start to feel Him as one unique and unified force that sorts us, manages us, begets in us all kinds of desires, passions, questions. And this way we will advance in the connection between us and with Him.

Reading Excerpt #2 (25:00 - 26:34 ) “Before they call, I will answer…” Twice.

9. S. (27:03) I just wanted to say this on what we read: “Before we pray He answers”, and it really happened this before this conference He answered us, and He chose us. We are amongst millions of people, we are the one that He invited us to His dinner and to connect to us. And I expected we have full but in fact, I saw the connection through the chest area, through our hearts, and we are connected with Creator and it's like spreading the energies like like a blood vessels, like little arteries that are spreading life from the Creator to us, our Bnei Baruch group, and it's like forming an embryo and He's giving that life so we can bestow to the whole of His creation. And I mean we are connected with Creator and all that we need to come closer, to keep that connection, so I think that it's happening, it's happening, I can feel that.

R. Thank you, thank you.

10. S. (29:00) To whom is the Creator calling, to all of creation, to the ten, to me personally, to each of us, how do I hear this call, each one in order to his own qualities?

R. We are doing this awakening: desires, connections and what we learn, and this all, it awakens us from the beginning to the end. He doesn't leave us anything for us to do truly from ourselves, from ourselves we can only add later, after we start to feel that the upper desire comes and clothes us. Therefore, first of all, we need to thank the Creator for giving us this idea to enter together and for us to be able to connect ourselves, and sustain and observe this assembly and then we'll see what else He wants from us.

S. We read in the article, The Freedom, that desires are never just desires, they are clothed in some concrete form, so when we pray do we have to realize, to imagine this state when it's connected, so when we pray for connection we have to imagine how it happens, how clothes or is that not necessary?

R. To the extent in which we're capable, we need to depict to ourselves that we are connected together and that the connection between us comes to the upper force that is in the center between us truly, inside this our central circle. And we want to bestow to Him this way, for Him to bestow upon us and upon all the people in the world such that our connection will be as general and final as possible. So we will all be able to connect all together in one heart in all of our hearts in one heart, and for the force of the Creator, bestowal, love, it will clothe us together and we will continue to exist this way.

11. S. (32:00) What does it mean ‘to be closer to the Creator’?

R. That we will feel that force in the connection between us, that He connects us, that He is bringing us closer to each other, and by this we will feel him more and more until He becomes revealed according to our connection, according to our compression, to our pressure that we create between us and in this way we will advance. Our plea to the Creator will change, our prayer, and the connection between us, and from between us to the Creator. I hope that all of these stages we’ll begin to go through them in this coming, in this Congress.

12. S. (33:19) There's the feeling of an immense holiday and great joy, how through our actions will we be able to bring the Creator that feeling of gratitude so that He feels from us how grateful we are for the friends, the Rav, the sources?

R. Oh, I don't know, think for yourselves, make efforts to understand how we can thank the Creator or express our gratitude to Him. Maybe through a song or something else that's special, please, by all means, I'm ready to be with you in this.

13. S. (34:18) Does the Creator enter the heart of a person and then to the general heart, like the upper intellect that enters?

R. When the Creator does this we will feel what it's like, we will hear and it will be a good answer for us.

14. S. (34:55) What is the Creator concealing, is it our personal ego or our group ego?

R. The Creator is concealing from us only that place for our effort, that we should give of our own with a prayer and a request for Him, towards Him, because by this we make ourselves similar to Him. The Creator begins creation, meaning all the processes that come to us, into our minds and hearts, into our desires and we need to continue them as if there are ours, this is how we feel. We're not aware that everything we have comes from the Creator, it's just, this is how we feel so this is what we need to do.

15. S. (37:01) To continue the question from before, from German, does that mean that we need to create the right condition for the Creator to give us the need for the prayer and the prayer itself, is that our work?

R. Yes this is what He does, both the need for the prayer and the prayer itself, He arranges everything, except part of what He arranges we don't feel that it's coming from Him, it feels like it comes from us, or another part of the environment etc.

S. How do we create these right condition so that can feel Him as the one who generates the need and the prayer?

R. Only connection, according to the intensity of the connection the Creator will send us questions, answers, understandings, feelings, everything is according to the power of the connection between us.

16. S. (38:18) When the Creator calls upon us is that the opportunity to present before Him as what we imagine as corrected?

R. Yes that, too, we can speak with Him freely, the Creator feels what happens in our hearts and therefore we have no problem to open our hearts, each of us, and all of us together, and turn to him this way.

17. S. (39:13) From the depth of our united heart of Bulgaria and MAK 56, we are hugging you, Rav, we are hugging the whole Ten that has intermingled and is all over the globe! Our question from the article, “it was to the liking of the Creator”, what does that mean. what awakens us to get to be “in the liking of the Creator”?

R. This is a very good question, how does a person come to a state where the Creator relates to him more than usual? It all depends on how much a person asks the Creator for the power of connection between the friends, nothing else makes such an impact on the Creator as when we ask for the power of connection between us. The power of connection between us is revealed as a revelation of the Creator, Himself. There is no power of connection that exists, just like that, in nature but rather the Creator, by His presence, when He connects between us reveals to us the connected creation that is united and yearns for the goal of being ‘as one man with one heart’, all of us, and then according to this the Creator goes along with them, He's within them. Therefore what we need is to make the Creator a place to be revealed between us, this is the purpose of creation and the completion of creation.

18. S. (41:33) There’s a desire to be together that comes from each and everyone of us, we can talk at length here of how each shared that necessity that's in each of us; but the question is, maybe, now what do we want, what do we want to connect between us all, what is going on here? Maybe some of us here for a day or some of us a year, ten or twenty years, why is this prayer that comes from us ,that stems from us, doesn't fill us but it's constantly in some state of necessity?

R. It's in order for us to constantly improve it.

S. But that's not enough for us, we want more?

R. Ask more, ask more, except make it something realistic that stems from the connection of our hearts.

S. What's here more than that: there's this feeling right now that there's kind of this no difference between the male and the female part, it's we're all coming close, like you once said. that we’ll all be together. So we're coming to that, okay and what from here?

R. From here will be the revelation of the Creator and the connection between us, the revelation of this unity because the Creator is one for everyone. And when we begin to reveal Him we'll begin to reveal the degrees of is uniqueness, of His oneness, and we will feel that we are in them.

S. So that's probably the goal we came with, to the convention, to not notice and differentiate different things that are in us but to come to that one, yes?

R. Yes.

S. Give us the force, give us the confidence, Rav.

R. I'm giving you everything, you can't even imagine how much I'm emptying myself every lesson with you, but you have to support it, you have to assemble, to gather around it and that's our topic, our plea to the Creator. And this way we will break this egoism which still feels a cavities, the gaps between us.

19. S. (44:50) In the beginning of the lesson you were talking about the measure, it depending on the measure of the quality of the connection between us, the question is how do we measure the quality of the connection between us?

R. Right now, we cannot measure it, we can't weigh it, we can't, but later when we really begin to climb up the degrees of unity, we'll begin to measure and count these degrees and it'll be like climbing over the coarseness as we learn in the wisdom of Kabbalah, we'll learn it and practice.

20. S. (45:44) I heard in the afternoon lesson yesterday that we cannot truly appreciate the connection between us but now we are demanding to connect even in the darkest moments of the day. What is this power that gathers us together, these sparks together to love?

R. The Creator does it, There Is None Else Besides Him, of course it's only the Creator. He brings us closer and raises us a little more and more and then we feel how much, how connected we are, how we are willing to connect, and this is how it works gradually, one at a time.

S. When a person feels himself as distant from the Creator where does he find the forces to show gratitude to the Creator even from those states?

R. From where does he take strength? Of course from the Creator. The Creator shines for him because the Creator is interested in our advancement towards the purpose of creation. Therefore He gives us the strength, the direction, He pushes us toward it, He awakens all kinds of incidents, situations around us that either pull us forward or push us forward. It's only the Creator, there's None Else Besides Him.

21. S. (48:00) First of all we want to send you the dearest greetings from the center of our mirror convention here and from our friends. Question, when the Creator sends us lowly states of descents, can we through the forces of prayer come to a state in which this evil will not go outwards but it will match itself in that way?

R. You don't need to think about it, only about connection. Even in the most difficult situations, moments, the most difficult relationships, still think only about connection despite what comes to you and then you will rise even more.

22. S. (49:05) You said something very interesting. What does it mean, the refinement of the prayer each time? How to make it more sophisticated, more improved each time? What does it mean to sharpen it, to improve the prayer each time?

R. We need to constantly change, improve, polish our prayer because we can add to it every moment new definitions, different definitions because we change and accordingly our plea will change as well, so let's try.

23. S. (49:58) Just now you said that the greatest gratitude, the most central one is that He collected us, He unites and connects all the world Kli and all the people on this globe. But these people are not really united, we have wars and plagues and disasters. The question, is it right that the central function of the world Kli is to connect as one ten, one world ten, so that we will be a conduit of the light to all the nations of the world and all our degrees of connection that we will come to will be greater degrees of this conduit of light globally?

R. Very true, thank you for your answer.

24. S. (51:01) The Creator sends us that his deficiency, meaning the lack of the deficiency of the Creator on the other hand when we pray when we raise a prayer we pray for our pain so how does that work out those two things?

R. Our pain should be as the pain of the Creator of course not to the same extent but in the same direction of connection of a passion for attainment of the force of the creation this is where we have to be directed therefore when we turn to the Creator there isn't such a big difference between him and us and this is how we should continue.

25. S. (52:14) I just want to ask you one thing, I actually want to ask you a couple things. It's like the connection is going in a spiral, in one way it can do one thing and we go up in another thing and it's winding up and opening up greater connection for each other. Is it right?

R. That's correct, that's how it should be. Ascents and descents, changes of states we don't create them, the Creator gives them to us and we need, on top of the changes in us, only to strengthen the connection between us.

S. Now we come to the problem in the ten. For instance, in this congress we feel rejections, we feel hate, we feel attractions, we feel all kinds of emotions. What shall we do? I think that we should go above them and just pray for them, where you feel most rejection, you pray for that friend.

R. Correct, yes you said it very well. I don’t know, you'll advance.

26. S. (54:35) When we come to the group if we bring with us the quality of the Creator, do we each bring the qualities of the Creator to the group, each of us?

R. Yes, of course.

27. S. (55:02) This convention is the Asian convention. How can we feel the lack in the deficiency of that area in the world?

R. Just feel it because people are suffering. They want to attain the purpose of creation, they want just like we do to advance toward the revelation of the Creator, to feel the Creator. So demand and ask, ‘How can this be done?’

28. S. (55:50) I am sitting and thinking, we are working through our day and constantly feeling that the Creator is with us, kind of like There Is None Else Besides Him. How on one hand can we feel this awakening if he's always with us?

R. I don't know, this is how it works out. Just ask yourself and that's how you'll discover it.

29. S. (56:35) If every situation is an opportunity for a request we ask and ask and start to feel gratitude and annulment towards the greatness of the Creator. So how does this cause us to be similar to him?

R. To the extent that we are drawn toward the Creator, we discover that He is drawn toward us. The more we develop connection between us and love for Him, the more we discover His love for us. And this is how it is, ‘I to my beloved and my beloved to me’, in this mutual way we reveal in our passion for Him His passion for us.

30. S. (57:46) Now that I look at the screen I see how many people all around the world have gathered to connect together to create this force with which we can turn to the Creator there's this joy that fills our heart. It seems to me that this is that gratitude toward the Creator that can stem in us and bring that forth. I tried in the preparation to the convention to include in me the force of my whole ten of Moldova, friends wonderful friends who are gathering in Moldova, Ukraine and Israel, friends who came to us. Now each one can take this force that he acquired in the ten throughout the years. I also worked in the ten, I acquired this force to aim this force to the world Kli in order to connect between us and it seems like we will truly succeed.

R. Great. Help in this, work in this.

Reading Excerpt #3 (01:03:09) “So it says, ‘Call upon Him when He is near..’”

31. R. (01:03:46) In other words, we need to understand that the Creator is always first, always, and He is always only turning toward us, and if we have any desire, passion, plea, litany, a question to Him, it's a sign that first He created in us this passion, this desire, the deficiency, and we should then do it, follow it, but the Creator always begins everything, there cannot be any movement, whether it seems to us as good or bad, We usually immediately weigh it whether it's good or bad, but both them only from the Creator.

32. S. (01:04:54) Teacher, how can the ten feel what the Creator said in order to come closer to him?

R. If the ten tries to work on the connection with them, between them, to that extent, it can also, to some extent, feel how the Creator turns to them, or at least to open up His relation toward them in the right way.

33. S. (01:05:39) The Creator calls upon us, but I feel my state of a wicked and that is my distancing from the Creator but nevertheless in my point of heart I feel that He's close to me, so my question is, is the Creator close to me or far from me?

R. He is in a place in the heart where you constantly make room for Him to enter, consistently. Are you listening? The Creator is in the person's heart to the extent that the person gives Him a place in the heart to be there constantly, perpetually.

34. S. (01:06:44) Dear teacher, great gratitude for our convening today. Thank you to the Creator, and our question. We all came here in different states and in this excerpt we're reading that there is already an answer to our lack. How should we find that common point of common deficiency?

R. The common point is when you all connect together as if it's one heart, and it doesn't belong to anyone but to everyone, and that place in that place you discover it's not just the heart, it is the Creator and you are in it.

S. How to strengthen and grow the connection between us, by what?

R. Think about it all the time, that is it.

35. S. (01:07:58) What is the reason that a person on the path stops thanking the Creator?

R. The Creator is theft in him, can the yearning to the Creator be taken away from one's heart? Iif one agrees to it then he becomes distant from his path.

36. S. (01:08:34) If the Creator is the one that builds the prayer in us, where are we in the system?

R. I see that you are now in our building, one level below me, right? You, we can't not recognize you with your ponytail, and your voice, and I'm happy that you came here. Hopefully you will feel good here and we need only one thing. Just like we are now on the planet Earth, in some building, with four walls in different places we need to try and feel that we are in one heart. One heart, that was created by the Creator, not more than a single heart, a single desire. In that desire, we want to connect between us, and that the Creator will hug us, care for us, that will arrange such a connection to us that we will feel that not only we are inside of him, but that also he fulfills us, both on the outside and in. That is called complete attainment. There is no difference between when he acts from, in what direction. It all becomes one.

37. S. (01:10:54) I would like to ask what is the difference in our prayers? This calling when he is close, what is the difference between our daily prayer and this call?

R. We need through the efforts between us to reach a state that we are inside the Creator that He is all inclusive and also fills everything all of our hearts, the connections between us, everything, He fulfills the whole world. He himself is the whole world and its fulfillment is also Him. That's why we say there is "None Else Besides Him". That is what we need to reach to obtain.

Reading Excerpt #4 (01:12:25) Letter 52 “It is written about this: ‘Seek the Lord while He is found..’”

38. R. (01:13:03) We need to never forget, to maintain that whatever feeling awakens in me, awakens from the Creator, that it's in whatever action in me through that he awakens me. That is what is important.

39. S. (01:13:26) How does the Creator enable us to feel that the prayer is a dialogue between Him and us that brings our Tens closer?

R. It is all according to the efforts of our heart. As much as we want to connect the heart in that way, obtain everything, everything. Let us only try and reach a state that we want to reveal the Creator in the connection between us.

Reading Excerpt #5 (01:14:24) "While they speak, I listen,’ meaning the measure.. (Twice)

40. S. (01:16:05) How in this Congress, as we connect, can we discover the desires that the Creator gives us to give Him pleasure?

R. Try and feel it all the time, all the time be drawn to it together, everyone to Him, so that He will be at the center of our yearning and then it will happen quickly.

41. S. (01:16:56) I have a strong longing to reveal real reality when we are going to start bestowing to the outer world. spreading the energy that theCreator is giving us and feeding us to the outer world because we are now in the upper worlds.

R. When we will be ready for it, we will find that the Creator is enabling us to go out to a wider world.

Reading Excerpt #6 (01:17:52) “The confidence that we should have in the Creator..”

42. R. (01:18:40) The fact that we say that the Creator always helps and everyone, each one according to what a person needs to advance every single moment for the purpose of creation, for the purpose of life. We need to connect to that together, to all the purpose of creation, and to see that the Creator helps everyone this way, so not always all the time, all the times our equal and not always a person experiences the same states as the other people, but that is how we advance, according to the general desire of the Creator to prepare all of the created beings on the planet, just like the planet is revolving and every cycle gets heated from the sun on a different side, that's how we need to understand that we're also experiencing changing of states and the Creator warms us up in a way towards the purpose of creation.

43. S. (01:20:01) If I understand correctly, it’s the same question again, the more we come closer, we discover more and more that there's nothing besides the Creator. How can we overcome this selfish state where we can't resemble him?

R. As much as we connect between us, we can overcome all the states, experience them, and then advance correctly toward the purpose of creation. We don't know exactly what we need to do, we don't see exactly the purpose of creation from afar, but when we are acting in the connection between us as much as possible, every single moment, then we advance correctly.

44. S. (01: 21:30) Thank you for this Congress this very exciting lesson, my question is, we're talking about the dance between us and Him, the way that He manages it from the beginning until the end, where do we add our sesame seeds so we can feel the way of partners with the with this dance between us and Him?

R. Only in the relations between us, between the friends. I first of all need to have a good and tight connection, and be as advanced as possible in the connection between us, in the ten and then more than the ten, but first of all, in the female vessel, from a woman or the male vessel from a man, and then we see how can we connect these two vessels. There are all kinds of relations, all kinds of conditions.

S. It seemingly becomes our own independent action that we do ourselves or it is still governed by?

R. No, the Creator is always governing this, but it's to the extent that we are in a reciprocal relationship with Him. I'm attracted to Him and he is attracted to me, and that is how it is for each and everyone and all of us together.

Reading Excerpt #7 (01:23:23) “Man’s sin is that he did not ask the Creator for help..”

45. R. (01:24:21) We need to reach such a prayer, that is why, without getting tired, without letting go constantly, we need to be in this. All the time to yearn for connection and for the purpose of our development.

46. S. (01:24:51) Everybody is here when I open my heart and there is no one here if I don't open my heart, why is this so and what should we do in order to open our hearts even more?

R. Only to continue to know that, by that we are coming closer to the purpose of our development. All in all we have predetermined time for this and we need to advance to speed up as much as possible to gather together as one group. as one man in one heart. Thank you Ankara.

47. S. (01:25:53) Now in this joint room we feel a common yearning to be above ourselves. There is a simple desire just to be in it. What effort can we make, or what request can we have?

R. To come out of myself out of my ego and to try and exist only in the connection with the other friends, that is all. These intentions, these efforts will eventually bring you to the desired goal because that is the result that the Creator also wants.

48. S. (01:26:57) My friend is asking, No translation.

R. That depends on our prayer to the Creator and on the Creator's answers to our prayer as it says, ‘I am to my beloved and my beloved to me.’ Only that way it can work.

49. S. (01:27:48) Good morning everyone we love you. We have this question, how can we constantly turn to the Creator if sometimes we feel states for instance, I feel that I'm not worthy to turn to the Creator. I haven't done enough. I could have done more, or maybe I have bad thoughts. I'm not in the state that I'm worthy for the king.

R. If you remember all the time for these mistakes of yours and your transgressions then you won't be able to exit it you need to say this, whatever happened it is all from the Creator, that is what I want to be now all that will be for me thanks to the Creator that is all. Don't look back, only ahead.

50. S. (01: 29:17) This is my first question and the first Congress, and I would like to ask what does it mean to pour out the heart? L’Chaim.

R. To pour out the heart means that you need to take all of your desires and to pour out everything that is in them, to empty it out, to pour it out, and then you will be able to work with a new heart, a clean heart, okay?

51. S. (01:30:22) I would like to bless everyone in this great holiday, the holiday of connection. I'm sorry for repeating this but I will ask the question, we have problems and sadness and sometimes it covers a person out of the state, can I ask for myself? For all this disgust that appears in me and to ask the Creator to correct me, will he listen to such an address with such an address am I not hurting or disturbing our society?

R. No, you need to ask for the whole world, all of humanity or at least for your group but not for yourself. The Creator doesn't see one person, remember that.

52. S. (01:31:43) At this moment we're all together. What are we lacking now in order to be in the heart and mind in a demand for the correction?

R. To be truly in the demand for correction as much as possible between each and everyone and from everyone to the Creator, only that needs to be for that. We are having a convention in order to connect our desire, to unify them, and by that to reach the final correction.

S. Should we be in the complete prayer during the lesson?

R. Yes.

53. S. (01:33:12) First of all great gratitude to the Creator for this amazing Congress that has begun. You said, teacher, that the Creator rose further away from us if we agreed to the condition that won't be in the heart all the time. My question is what are the resources, what resources do we have in our Ten in order to reach the agreement for him to be concealed from us?

R. We need to ask the Creator to be revealed in the connection between us in the Ten and by that we will advance forward.

54. S. (01:34:22) Thank you teacher for the opportunity the Costa Rica group is indeed a new group Even though three of our friends are veterans most of friends here most of the friends here are new how can we come to be in equivalence of form between us because the veterans here feel like we're the smallest because the Congress is thanks to the deficiency of the new friends, how can we all reach equivalence of form?

R. We all need to reach a connection between us in order to attain the purpose of creation, which is to connect in such a way so that we will reveal the Creator in our hearts. That's it. There's nothing out of a single action connection between us and from the connection between us the Creator will reveal himself. He will enter it himself.

55. S. (01:35:38) You said the thing we have to do is to exist in the connection between us, but how do we do that? What are the mechanics of how that works and what we try to do to move our heart to the connection between us?

R. We live on all kinds of levels in corporeality, spirituality, and we need to add to that now also the matter of connection between us. Let's make an effort in order to reveal the connection between us in which we expect the revelation of the Creator, that is all.

56. S. (01:36:43) We really feel the special day we have this sensation that we feel the friends we feel their desires, their states. But teacher they're so different from one another, it is like different colors where there is a plate of colors of an artist. How to make one picture from all these colors?

R.This is what we need to do, we need to convince that same artist, same painter, to paint the single picture of the entire reality, of all creation. This is exactly what we're asking from the Creator, and the Creator has to reveal this for us.

Reading Excerpt #8 (01:38:03) “The Creator does not give to a person without a person asking first..”

57. S. (01:39:53) Even though the feeling of deficiency bothers me, this is the feeling that leads me to the Creator. How should I use that deficiency so that I will give the Creator contentment in it?

R. Direct that deficiency to what the Creator wants and he wants the connection between us and that in the connection between us we will discover Him and we will be fulfilled from his light, there is actually all we need to do. I am very happy for all the Turkish groups, from all the Turkish groups.

58. S. (01:40:58) Yes, first of all thank you to the Creator, thank you. I see groups from all over the world. We also have great friends here in Ankara, and we also have new friends from the point of the heart. I wanted to ask. I felt that there is great excitement and a lot of fire in their hearts. What can I add to their work? How can I add?

R. Only the heart, only open their hearts and join yours to their hearts. Nothing other than that.

59. S. (01:42:25) It is a question from one of our friends in the town about excerpt number one. She's asking if the Creator gives everything the desire the prayer and the answer to the prayer is the only thing we can do to have the prayer before the prayer or that also comes from the Creator?

R. Everything comes from the Creator also the desire before the prayer, the prayer before the prayer everything comes from the Creator, but the response, our own participation is what he expects and anticipates.

60. S. (01:43:33) Hello dear teacher, hello world Kli, it's a great joy to be in this Congress, the question is about this joy. Since yesterday's morning lesson I'm in a new state that I don't recognize. It is hard for me to hear the excerpts, it's hard to express my thoughts and sometimes I even hear you as a background and my main feeling is happiness from our connection. I am simply enjoying this happiness. What is the state and how to pass on this happiness and all this joy from the connection to my Ten of the friends to the world Kli ,instead of receiving it for myself?

R. Leave your heart and try, make the others feel what's in your heart, just open hearts, everyone, without work, without anything.

61. S. (01:44:55) Can you explain the difference between turning to the Creator and the quantitative connection that the person builds with the friends? Can you explain the difference between addressing the Creator in the qualitative connection that a person builds with his friends who are physically in the connection between that and raising the deficiencies of the friends so that there is a prayer? I think what he is asking is the difference between the physical prayer when the friends are together and raising the inner deficiency as a prayer?

R. It is hard to answer that because it all relates to the sensation and it's hard to talk about sensations because it doesn't have the place where we are in a mutual sensation. That's why it's difficult to express. It is difficult to express.

62. S. (01:46:24) How can we know what we should add to the connection in order to increase the yearning for the Creator?

R. We need to add to our connection, connection.

S. But what in the connection?

R. Yes, I told you that we need to add to the connection, more connection.

63. S. (01:46:47) We thank Israel. We thank the Creator, thank you World Kli, for this opportunity to understand that the Creator is the one and only one. Therefore the prayer rises from the depths of the hearts. Dear Creator, please unite us above all the differences into one heart that will radiate love and warmth to the whole world and please help us to go above all the partitions and to unite into just one loving heart. Please hear our prayers. Thank you so much everyone, Israel, and the Creator.

R. Thank you.

64. S. (01:48:41) We have questions from Persian students who learn in the campus. Someone from Iran is asking, why doesn't the Creator answer our requests quickly?

R. We don't feel that but in fact he receives and feels all the prayers for him there's no difference between human beings, there is only difference to the extent that the person asked from Him.

S. Why does He answer after many ascents and descents?

R. That is so we will be able to get used to the changing of states and from these changing of states, we will be able to build ourselves. We will learn that.

S. In this state, how can we feel happiness in any state?

R. We can feel happiness from having connection between us and to the Creator. But other than that, there is nothing in the world that can change our state. Let's continue in the connection between us and with the Creator more and more.

65. S. (01:50:58) We are embracing all the friends. How can we expand the connection that we feel now and expand in this place?

R. Don't be in a rush. We have time. It's only the first lesson in our convention. We don't need to deepen all of this, to meet for more lessons for more gatherings between us. We still have everything ahead of us.

66. S. (01:51:51) In the beginning of the congress there was a great awakening and great happiness. How can we dedicate this happiness to the Creator and to the connection between us?

R. Just like that dedicated in your heart. Aim your heart to the connection of everyone, everyone, all the participants of the convention, and from their connection to the Creator.

67. S. (01:52:48) Would you like to summarize the lesson in any way?

R. No, I think we already spoke about it in all directions. The lesson came out very nice and we know what prayer we need to reach out to the Creator and the only prayer that can help us is the care only can help us transition from a prayer realization.
