Passover - Selected Excerpts from the Sources. (They will come out with many possessions #234)

1.Rav’s Introduction: (00:27) Right, Korban, offering comes from the word Karov, near. We already learned it. What can bring us closer in Passover? When we pass over or skip from the feeling of this world to feeling the spiritual world. Meaning in the relationships between us, if they exist in thoughts, desires, and intentions that are egoistic, so from these two states that they exist in the upper world which is entirely in order to bestow, altruistic; instead of hatred there is love, instead of separation connection, Etc. The Creator deliberately created for us an infrastructure that is opposite from spirituality, so we made a distinction between the two and built one on top of the other “as the advantage of light from within the darkness”. In this way we can distinguish between the two things. These qualities that initially are not felt in us, all together, so they will be felt in us, and we will appreciate them and develop and build them and be incorporated in them. In this way we build the corporeal world and the spiritual world and between the two is where we exist. Now we need to see by what we come closer to feeling and perceiving the upper world, the spiritual world. Through the offering, that's why it's called offering, Korban, nearing in order to bring us closer, nearer to feeling the spiritual world: The Creator.

Excerpt 235 (02:26)

2. R. (03:42) Here we need to understand that without revealing the deficiencies that we discover in us, how opposite we are from the state of spirituality, the state of intention to bestow, nearing, opening the heart Etc. Unless we discover our oppositeness we cannot come out from where and to where? What change should happen in us? In order to have a change we have to find what is our real situation, which is entirely, entirely in the intention to receive and we must discover and reveal it as opposite in order to bestow. We see that we can’t, and we can't despite our efforts, great efforts, as great as possible that we make and when we make these efforts, hoping, understanding, and feeling that only our efforts can save us from Egypt. After everything we come to a resolution that we actually cannot deliver ourselves from the intention to receive from the hatred and distance between us, and here we need only higher help: The Creator, that He will bring us closer and build the connection between us, as it is written “unless the Creator builds a house nothing will happen” we will not succeed and, this is what we have to come to now. So, the most important in the beginning of the exit, the time of the exit, the recognition of the exit, the recognition of the offering, meaning by what we come closer. By what we pass over; come out from hatred, repulsion into connection and adhesion between us. The problem is that we have to locate the nearing to Freedom, in that we adhere to one another, that's how we become, in that we are willing to come closer, want to come closer, that this is what we are fighting for; that our escape from the Exile into Freedom is when we can finally be connected. Then when we can realize it, we see that it's the Creator who delivers us from separation, from distance, from hatred, from all the manners of mutual repulsion, the results of the breaking of the vessel of Adam Harrison. When he gives us once again he lets us once again unite these broken vessels, so they come closer, move towards each other, and in this way we begin to feel according to the nearing of these vessels. Meaning our own nearing in our minds and hearts as much as we come closer, we come to feel where the braking happened and precisely from the objection, resistance to nearing but nevertheless nearing on top of the remoteness and the shattering, there is where we revealed the preparation that the Creator has prepared for us, and when we learn what He prepared for us in the braking between us then we understand better through the manner of “the advantage of the Light from within the darkness” the more darkness is revealed in all kinds of ways, the more we begin to understand as a result, the thought of creation; what He does, why he did this in this way, what does He get from our having to quarrel and move apart and reject one another, why He's prepared this for us? Now that we forcefully come closer, how much by this we attained His thought, His relation, His thought of creation? Let's say we are like little children in a small playground or in a room and we want to come a little closer so when we engage in this according to our goodwill that is suddenly revealed to us, then we also discover to what extent we are immersed in the bad desire, and we cannot come closer and we try again according to the recommendation of the Creator to come closer and discover how much we can't, we won't, we don't want to. We also discovered that this Mutual rejection that we reveal comes from Him. That there is a reason, there is a source, there is an origin; the Creator did it. So, we come to Him and demand of Him, we have no one else to turn to. Even all the bad things we discover that they come from Him, that He makes the light and creates the darkness. But before that we didn't know that there was light and darkness; they are one opposite the other. We reveal them through our disposition towards connection and then accordingly disposition to the distance and only according to that we distinguish between the spiritual light and darkness; through our disposition for nearing and the distance and then what happens is we begin to replace our values, Into spiritual ones. From Simply physical discernments that we are used to in the corporeal beastly world, to the world of human beings. We have; still, vegetative, animate and speaking, so on the animate level it's according to our physical senses, and we say that according to that we come closer or farther, and it becomes darker or lighter and here we are beginning to shift it to spiritual feelings, Internal nearing or moving away and where between us and the Creator is it happening? So, we as a result already have a better understanding of what is the offering, it's when we draw near to each other. What does it mean to Pass over? It's when we can skip over the rejections between us and connect, and in this way we make these corrections in our connections, after the breaking. So, in all the states where we can discover disconnection between us, we skip over them, we create a bridge between them and in this way we come to a state where all of the relationships between us. Even though we find them in every single state, we discovered that they are one opposite the other, and our ego grows, the rejection between us intensifies, the complaints and arguments between us are all growing more and more; but at the same time “love covers all the crimes” and we can turn these repulsions into connection, into mutual propensity and in this way we build the single vessel. Through connecting among us above the conditions that the creator has created in us, for the time being, and we come to the first nearing between us. Although this nearing is very very frail, weak it works for the time being, and this is called receiving in it through the connection between us a feeling that we are rising above mutual rejection between us which is called Egypt, and we come to the first connection between us which is called Outside of Egypt, until we come to a state where it will even be the Land of Israel. Land meaning desire and Israel meaning entirely directed toward revealing the Creator. So, He will be revealed in this way between us, in the connection between us. So, everything basically begins with the offering, the Passover offering means we're coming closer.

Excerpt 235 (15:25)

3. R. (16:36) Right, so there's a preparation on the part of the Creator when we're all filled with deficiencies, but by rising above them and wanting to be connected between us despite these deficiencies by this we approached the Creator. Meaning the creator doesn't take into account all of the negative discernment that exist in each and every one, that they are real or unreal it's not so important what's revealed at the time being as long as we want to be connected above them; in order to be an offering meaning Krovim, closer to the Creator.

4.S. (17:29) Relative to these complaints, grievances against the Creator where we tried and didn't succeed specifically in our state in this process. Does this express certain grievances that we have towards the friends that we discover or these some sort of grievances towards the upper force that we need to meet and unite between us and he's not doing it?

R. Both, everything as long as you are in a disposition to connect between you. because only the connection between you can you discover the Creator and by this bring Him contentment, which is the goal.

S. So, at this stage when it's grievances against the upper force, towards their friends it's clear, this friend can help or maybe everyone else can help. But when there are grievances against the upper force, what's the work here?

R. I can't add anything more than what we said. Listen to what we say and try to do it, and it will be clear to you. You need to answer it.

5. S. (18:55) What are we offering as a sacrifice here?

R. There is nothing here that you need to sacrifice. The concept of sacrifice or offering means I come to a state where what seemingly disrupted me from connecting to the friend and to the Creator, now I see that these things help me, that I want to connect above them, among us and with the Creator. It's not like a sacrifice where you take an animal and slaughter it, eat it, because it's seemingly a part of us, a part of our beastly level. No. Here it's a higher thing: Nearing the Creator is called, the offering, the Korban. When I take egoistic thoughts and desires and in some way I correct them or remove them from myself, and by this I come to draw nearer to the Creator.

6. S. (20:44) This nearing towards the Creator above the disturbances, when the disturbance appears to me as a friend that is dimming away as far as presents in the lessons or the meetings, while we are going through it and the attitude from him is ‘guys leave me that's how I am’. How do I connect above that?

R. You take him into account with all of his deficiencies, all of his flaws maybe, and you have to relate to him as though he is corrected. That's it. Meaning diminish your pride, your ego, for which you see, because “all the faults are our own fault” and in this way you will build a correct situation for connection between you.

S. There's a feeling like I'm not doing enough to maybe help in some way?

R. Yes, that is also true. But you'll gradually be able to correct it through a prayer, through a prayer for the Creator to give you the strength to see where you can add in your own correction towards the friend. Because there are no friends, it's actually the Creator who appears to you in this way because you cannot obtain Him, you attained Him through these images of the friends, the closer you come to them you begin to feel that from this the image of the Creator is built for you.

7. S. (22:50) Why is it written here “under the hardship of the Egyptian” because it's like it has been required. We said in the previous excerpts that the Creator wanted to give all the light of NRNHY and its thanks to the vessels of the Egyptians this process was enabled. Where's the gratitude for Pharaoh for the Egyptians? Why do we have a negative attitude towards the Egyptians?

R. First of all it's not everywhere, you still don't know afterwards you will see how Pharaoh does his work Faithfully. It is a force in the hands of the Creator, this is why it is written “I have created the evil inclination”, it's a creation opposite from the light which exists in and of itself. So, don't look at Pharaoh and the Egyptians as forces that do there what they do out of their own choice, they are natural forces and whenever they do positive or negative things, it is what they have to do because the Creator operates through them in such a way they are auxiliary forces; to clarify the operations of the Creator and to clarify and scrutinize the qualities that are revealed in the created beings that are similar to the creators. So, all the operations that are opposite from the Creator, either from the Creator or from the created beings but which are opposite from in order to bestow, are called Egyptians, and we must reveal them, so that the advantage of the light will be from within the darkness, so we can distinguish between them and recognize them. This is why these qualities have a very important role, very important role. We have to get into that role and also sympathize with them and go against them and in this way advance.

8. S. (25:26) The offering, I understand, is the justification of the Creator but the action itself of offering a sacrifice. Is it an individual action or…?

R. We will learn these things. It's irrelevant now. Now we are dealing with a certain definition and only that.

9. S. (26:17) In regard to the foundation, we have a lesson, we have morning lessons, we have meetings with the friends during the day which is all amazing. How can we hold each other and make sure we are connected in every single place and make sure that they are important and not ourselves and for the general Kli to be included in every action?

R. We are not connected. Now we are beginning to know ourselves to the extent that we want to connect we're beginning to realize how much we do not want to connect, and according to our efforts to connect we are feeling how the power of Pharaoh which is actually the power of the Creator but through the negative, It reveals in us and doesn't let us connect. So in this way we have to try and try to continue our work of connection and not give up. When we reveal all of the manners of resistance to connection, then it will be inverted, it will change and In this way we will come to correction. A correction cannot happen before we attain all of its manners, all of its nature, which is one thing out of its opposite.

10. S. (28:26) Why is the Creator constantly making sure to put before me that there are no friends, and it brings me to a state that my prayers are mostly thankful for everyone being in adhesion with Him. But my prayers are mostly that I want to dissolve in them and to disappear in them, but what comes out eventually is that what I see before my eyes is I feel it's strengthening, and it becomes kind of redundant almost, that's the result of this exposure so what do we do with it?

R. This is how you need to work, and you only need to check yourself to what extent you can do what the Kabbalists tell you more precisely. I have no more else to offer. I also can't say, do this and do that and it's like this and it's like that, because you need to make that scrutiny also.

S. I'm doing this scrutiny according to what the Kabbalists are exposing before me. I'm trying to be real with the Creator, I can't lie to Him. It's hard, for me it doesn't come out so that's why I'm working with something I don't know if it's the correct thing but I'm trying to go with the truth that I hear from you from the Kabbalists.

R. Still what is not working out for you?

S. The end result is that I feel that my prayers, my thoughts are always in the real place somewhere where it is and I don't see it, and from what I see becomes not that important, redundant, it's like there's a disconnect from the environment, from the reality that I see because…

R. In other words you want to come to the bottom of your heart, but you still can't. You still can’t. The heart is still closed, and you are turning around it, walking around it. It's true, that's where most of us are. Well, what can I tell you? Take your guitar and start singing serenades before the Creator's window, until ‘the bride’ lowers a rope for you, so you can climb to Her window and unite with Her.

S. Serenades are something that connects to something romantic with the Creator and here there are prayers with a lot of tears and a lot of desire and deficiency?

R. Yes, yes, that's the way it is. That's the way it is, it is tears too of course. Tears are because of weakness when you try and try to break into a new relationship, but you can't, so the sign of weakness of your incapability is tears. But precisely through tears you come to the right connection.

S. The greatest tears are from the suffering of humanity, I don't know where it comes to me but I always have this empathy for their suffering and lately I'm finding myself thanking the Creator for them not suffering, because anyone who negates to his own flaws notion has been penetrated me and eventually I'm not suffering because I feel there under His care and it brings me to a state where I don't find deficiencies from the pain of humanity because it's not real, that's what I'm creating my ego.

R. Very good, very good, because “all who faults, fault in their own faults” and we see that it's as if humanity is suffering and afterwards we will see that it's incorrect. Okay? We have yet to discover it.

11. S. (33:00) Where he writes “and they had grievances to the Creator” now they're complaining to the Creator for what He's doing to a person and what He’s putting him through. It feels like it distances you from the Creator.

R. We will see it. Distancing is also a sign of ‘nearing’ as long as you don't stay put.

S. How do I know that I've come closer to the friends, how do you measure that?

R. To the extent that you want to be closer to them it's a sign that you are closer to them. In our world it says if you come down from the lack of closeness and this is called closeness in spirituality no it's when you have even a bigger desire to come closer that's a sign that you are coming closer.

12. S. (34:04) A practical question about nearing above the disturbances. In many tens there are disputes, as an example, practical example, about physical meetings versus virtual meetings. In many places in the world there's a possibility to meet in someone's home for a meeting or a lesson. More than likely they'll be a dispute in the ten between those who want to come and those who don't. Does such a case have to do with our nearing above in our disputes and how do we solve it?

R. I don't know how to answer this. For the time being we are in a transition period from covid to maybe no covid. So there are people who are more afraid of it, some are less afraid of it, I also see with my own relatives, the people who are near me, they used to be very careful and lately they were infected. So I can't say. There's no desire to connect or there is another desire here not to be sick with this virus. So the calculation here cannot be spiritual, it is still a corporeal calculation. When we say that the doctor has been given permission to heal then we realize that the doctor is not the Creator or some great man who can tell me or advise me something true. It's like an expert who knows this virus better and can say whether it's dangerous or not and to what extent it is dangerous. So here we shouldn't, it's not a matter of choosing things here, so even when people assemble more and more now the whole mask thing is being removed for events, I can't say. I can't get into it because it's unrelated to me. It's related directly to the experts who can decide to what extent where it's dangerous and where it's not, so listen to the advice of BB and at the same time to what the health ministry advises and decide, only you can decide. We will talk about it some more. I still haven't received any instructions from them as to what they think we should do. Both, all over the world, in general, I have no idea how they can determine because in every area and every country there are different laws, and we will see. We'll see what to do. For now it's not a topic for an argument there is no basis for an argument, clear?

13. S. (37:36) it is written that the grievances to the Creator which are called Matza and the quarrel and the Maror, the bitter what is the quarrel?

R. Matza and quarrel, there is a dispute between them, and they need to bring it to a state that they can live with and advance with.

14. S. (38:10) I wanted to get back to the question, anyone who faults, faults in his own fault but I'm going through the opposite process, I never in life felt such a huge suffering as what is happening in Ukraine right now. As I feel what is happening right there, I understand that there's a great difference between me and those who feel it on their flesh, but I cannot accept that maybe it's their fault, maybe they are suffering for the whole world but how can it come to a state, maybe it's very high, but I'm very far from there

R. I don't understand the question.

S. The question is, as I understood, he said that he already understands that all who fault, fault in their own fault and he doesn't feel the suffering of the world, so that's the question, I do feel a lot of suffering, what do I do with it?

R. What to do, try to understand what the Kabbalists write and to settle these things. For the time being I can't. You see that there's an impression that is very different in our friends, in all the parts of the world, there are those that barely heard about it, there are those who are in it, there are those who are physically in it and that's how we need…. I talked about this several times already. I am afraid that by this I can cause damage to our friends from Kyiv from Moscow, I don't know how to talk in a way that will come through as in the spiritual level and not on a corporeal degree, it's still very difficult for us to do so.

15. S. (40:25) What risk request do we deliver to the Creator by making an offering and as a result of this request, what will the Creator's response be to us?

R. In bringing the offering we tell the Creator to come near, to come close even though we have contradictory qualities and though we want to settle those we have to come closer and connect how do we connect? Upon the oppositeness between us, that's called love covers all crimes. This is actually what we're asking for. As a result of this the Creator will perform corrections where we need to rise, also us on one hand and also those on the other side, to a state where it will be able to understand and feel where that point of contact is between us that is truly connected between us with preserving that distance that exists. Then in that distance between us in that clash, We rise to a higher degree a spiritual one hand and there we connect. That is called that we are performing an ascent we are implementing an ascent. Since all the distance, coarseness, grievances become the degree by which we rise above and connect on a higher degree and now that distance becomes the intensity of connection. According to this power of connection the light comes, the force of connection, which fills us in that same upper degree.

Excerpt 236 (42:38) Twice

16 R. (44:15) This is what we would actually really want to happen to us but still in our request there's probably some blemish that we have yet to perform the correct preparations for this to happen. Where Israel, the light, and the Creator we cannot yet depict correctly and demand for it to happen between us. For then the Creator passes over all his flaws and connects all the merits even the smallest ones between us and this is how we merit the attainment of the purpose of creation to adhesion, Dvekut, okay?

17. S. (45:05) It's not clear how this condition is kept if there are grievances towards the Creator and how does He bring you closer over that? I thought there has to be a lack, a yearning and over this He brings us closer.

R. Deficiency and yearning for connection but the deficiency for connection, how is it revealed? It's revealed from us seeing that we're not capable of doing something. It's the same thing. It depends on how you look at it. The gap between the desirable and what exists, you can say that it's on you or on the Creator or on both of you, but this thing needs to be written about. How do we get rid of it? Through prayer, where we cry out and then the deficiencies that arise from this gap actually help shorten that gap.

S. Okay so on top of these grievances, it is possible, on top of these deficiencies to show the prayer?

R. Certainly, certainly. Upon these complaints, upon these deficiencies, the revelation of the need. Then, the vessel that the Creator is revealed in, is already apparent.

S. What in that state does it mean that, as he writes here, He skips over the deficiencies?

R. That is love covers all crimes where the Creator needs only the deficiencies and those deficiencies come to a form and correct power, intensity so He connects them.

S. So it's not from the perspective of the lower one that love covers all crimes, the lower one should only show the deficiencies?

R. Yes.

S. From the upper one comes the covering

R. Covering, yes very good.

18. S. (47:38) What does it mean that the Creator doesn't pay attention to these deficiencies or stops paying attention?

R. He needs them in order to build the higher up degree, hence when He illuminates with his light all of these deficiencies become ascent.

S. What does it mean that He shines with his light?

R. The upper light, the one force of unity brings two opposite things to become as one. Where all the problems, Lacks, clashes of different kinds, they all come to a state in which they come to the one upper force and in the created being they split into several and when the Created being raises them to the one upper force they once more become one.

S. Who does it? Does the created being raise these contradictions to the Creator?

R. No, the truth is that also the prayer is performed by the Creator, everything is done by the Creator. A person just needs to bring some kind of inclination towards it, an inclination to identify, to nearing to something towards the Creator. Not much is demanded from the created being.

19. S. (49:32) In our world we see that with all the pain that humanity is going through it's not enough to ask for more, why is it? Why does it work in that way in spirituality?

R. Again, repeat.

S. Despite all the pain that humanity is going through there is no real request, in spirituality on the other hand, what do we need to see? Because with this pain we see that it doesn't bring us anything.

R. In spirituality you have to express the extent to which you understand what you receive from the Creator on the lower degree, to the extent of which you understand that this needs to help you rise to a higher up degree, towards the Creator. This is all of our work. Our response doesn't need to be just to scream, to cry, no. It's written and the people of Israel sighed from the work and their outcry rose to the Creator and the Creator heard their cry and helped them, meaning there's a certain special connection, not in the form of given take, but a certain processing of what comes from the Creator, seeking through what you feel. Of course for what you feel comes from the Creator and begin to search for how to respond to it correctly and the Creator hears their appeal as this appeal already has their personal participation in it and accordingly he begins to change his bestowal upon them in such a way that they begin to rise more and more and more. So to the extent in which there is effort on behalf of the lower one to bring the upper one and rise to the upper one, to come to the upper one, yes. There is also an effort on behalf of the Creator to be closer to the created being. We need to see the extent in which we each time are being shared with the Creator.

Excerpt 237 (52:47)

20. R. (54:28) Meaning first of all we see the extent to which He looks at our desires. What desires are we in? The desires of the Egyptians or the desires of Israel? In which desire you are in, you are called Egyptian or Israel. That is the same way in our world, everything relative to spirituality no matter who you are or what you are, whether you are a man or a woman, it doesn’t matter. If you are thinking thoughts in order to bestow, you are called Yashar Kel, Israel, if you are for the benefit of yourself then you are called the nations of the world. There are seventy such nations of the world called in order to receive, and where each of them wants to aim itself to in order to bestow to the Creator then he becomes Yashar Kel, he becomes Israel.

Excerpt 237 (55:29)

R. (55:52) Meaning that in each and every one of us there are states in which we are called Israel and states where we are called Egyptians. So the Creator helps us connect all the states of ascents which are called Israel, Yashar Kel, and also to connect all these states which are called descents, called Egyptians and to lower all the Egyptians downwards and all of Israel upwards and then we begin to differentiate between these two levels at which point we disconnect and distant above the thoughts of the Egyptians to the thoughts of Israelis.

Reader continues: “ this means that every descent is called Egyptian….”

21. S. (57:54) What does it mean that the Creator jumps from Egyptian to Egyptian?

R. That the Creator awakens those desires that are all in order to receive for the benefit of a person seemingly, upon a person, and a person is immersed in that.

22 S. (58:48) We have to use these desires?

R. Of course we need to use both the desires of the Egyptians and Israel but to raise both of them to the degree of Israel, that's the degree of the Egyptians that is called exiting Egypt.

23. S. (59:22) Can we say that an individual is an Egyptian and the connection between the individuals is Israel?

R. Correct. The connection between individuals is called Israel and disconnection between Individuals is called Egyptian. That is how it is by definition, there are no other definitions between Egyptians and Israel.

24. S. (59:56) The exodus from Egypt was premature, the desire was still not strong enough, so it caused exiles. It is the root of the exiles that we still feel today, we are still in it. The question is, are the states we went through, were they not enough? Was there not enough deficiency and this is why we are in this state now?

R. Of course we do not have enough of a deficiency, do we run away from Egypt? No. We are still suffering here and there but we are actually not suffering. We are continuing to live. A person is in a place where all together it appears to him as being okay. According to his calculation, the summation of all his states, he thinks it is good enough to continue. Why should I leave? And therefore he has no strength to put forth efforts to exit Egypt, his Egypt.

S. If the desire was not strong enough, how was it even possible to come out?

R. No. It is impossible therefore what the Creator has is only one opportunity to continue adding troubles. Therefore at the end of exile there are still the ten blows, the ten plagues and then they have no choice but they truly, really, have to make great efforts in their outcry. This is a cumulative matter.

Reading 238 (01:02:03) Twice

25. S. (01:05:38) What does it mean that states were erased?

R. As if they weren't, why? Because such corrections were performed upon them that they now don't influence, they don’t bestow according to their content as their negation becomes positive because what were those bad things from? Since the Creator added the will to receive to them so certainly they themselves, they fall, and they cannot if so cause any harm to a person because they came from above and only gave a person even more to discern and bring forth the correct discernment.

S. So why not sweeten it with something more positive?

R. No, no, no. Leave that. Those are the next corrections meanwhile for the exit from Egypt that alone is enough. In the exodus from Egypt they do not do corrections they only run away from in order to receive. The question is correct, but you hear the answer. Now we still do not correct The descendants, but we escape from all of the egoistic desires from all the descents . We rise, we jump above them and run away, escape. Later the times will come where they will have to correct everything. Everything comes from the Creator He needs to give them all of the difficulties, the coarseness, the descents, and they will have to correct their attitude towards them until they come to there is none else besides him which is that all of it comes from that Creator. For the time being there is not enough matter and experience on their behalf.

26. S. (01:07:48) Where are the ascents accumulated, as it is written?

R. The ascents accumulate in that reforming light that shines upon them.

27. S. (01:08:10) If the falls were erased how is it possible to feel the ascents? Because the oppositeness on which reality is built is gone.

R. That is not correct. They erase the Egyptians and Israel, meaning in order to bestow, remains and in order to receive is erased but it is not erased but rather for the time being they do not bother, they actually help run away from Egypt because if those desires were not big of reception there would be nothing to run from, to escape from. Therefore, for each and everything we just say it that way but each and every desire the intention is here that it has a place here to repulse people forward. The result that needs to come from this, we just need to yearn for connection between us just to cry from the connection between us to the Creator for Him to help us and not to think of what will happen, those calculations rather only forward, only towards Him through the connection that is it and after we get to these connections, these initial connections, which is called that we are already breaching the boundary, the border of Egypt and enter in order to bestow somewhat then we will perform scrutinies also for those vessels that we took out of Egypt with us. That is it. That is called that the people of Israel will take all of those vessels from Egypt. All those desires, thoughts, and intentions, all the worst possible things they take with them and then outside of Egypt, where they have already forces in order to bestow, they begin to correct the desires of reception with the intention in order to bestow. Building spiritual Partzufim.

28. S. (01:10:37) What does it mean that Israel is in between the Egyptians?

R. They are at times in your thoughts and desires that are good for connection and bestowal between friends and even the Creator and then there are those that are opposite that so what happens eventually, according to our efforts as much as we want to exit, to connect, to ask where we understand and don't understand, as much as all of these things come to the upper light and He sorts them and connects them and makes it such that what is needed for the transition from in order to receive to in order to bestow He keeps and what's not, what is not needed what bothers that transition from receiving to bestowing then he kind of hides it. Yes? And later we correct. Therefore all of these scrutinies are done by the upper light. The Creator is the one that clarifies, scrutinizes it and we exit Egypt with great assets. It is like we borrow, steal all these vessels from the Egyptians, all those desires that were in each and every one, they fill us we exit with them, but it is as if they don't exist. There is a certain illumination from above that helps us not to see for the time being our ego. We see this in our world. Sometimes we are truly in a state and thoughts like an angel where I love everyone, and I want for everyone and nothing for myself. It happens at times. So in such a way seemingly we come to exit Egypt.

S. The fact that we are in between the Egyptians, does that mean that they are hidden?

R. There are these states and those states. So states that are called the Egyptians disappear, seemingly are hidden now and outwards emerge only the states of Israel, Yashar Kel and then through that there is the Exodus from Egypt meaning that it is clear that this is not a true state. It is a state that for the moment is taking place this way. That is why it is called the miracle of the exodus from Egypt, the miracle. It is not that we have reached it with our forces, and we are defining this and deciding it, no. Rather according to the process of creation, if we do something small that it is upon us to do then we operate the big system, and it brings us out of the egoistic state to the altruistic state and when we…

S. I wanted to ask some more, when only the ascents are left as it is written here, does that mean that my intention to the quality of bestowal doesn't change but how should it feel that I always feel good or is it not necessarily?

R. We are not talking about what is good or bad in my feeling but what is good or bad in my intention. That is it, where I identify already with the intention where I really want to be connected with everyone and with the Creator and to ascribe myself to them in order to bring them forces of bestowal and connection.

29. S. (01:15:11) This transition from reception to bestowal when we are able to enter a connection with the friends and feel them, so the exit state we have to keep holding it? We should do it in force, or do you get a force that sustains you there and you do not need to hold onto it?

R. We have to always long for connection between us all the time but when comes the time of the exodus from Egypt, as we call it, we receive from above such an awakening that holds us together and certainly we begin to feel that we transcend corporeality and we can live in such a mutual feeling in the group, in our attitude to both the group and actually all of reality, the whole world. So this ascension above the intentions to receive this is called the exodus from Egypt. We will talk about it more. All right?

30. S. (01:16:36) With your permission, all the process of the exodus, all the stages of the complaints of Moses and the sons of Israel sighed from the work and the king of Egypt died, these are all stages that we have to go through all of them in the ten, or only reach the final demand of receiving the ten plagues in order to exit? What is the right way to go through this?

R. The right way to work is that you follow the text in front of you together with everyone and then you understand at what pace and order we go through. I will not tell you what happens afterwards. This is what we discover in the meantime that we would really like to transcend our ego to connection between us and through that to attain connection with the Creator and to bring Him contentment by that, that we all join Him and at some point it will work, it will succeed and we will have done it and that is called the exit from Egypt, the exit point, that is where we've come to register it well in your heart and mind that this is the exit from Egypt that we are all trying to be connected and the Creator finally helped us by bringing together the Jews within us, those looking for unity and the Egyptians within us, meaning each and everyone's personal ego and He separated between this and that and He separated the Egyptians within us and connected the Jews within us and that gave us the force to join the Creator, this is called rising above Egypt towards Him.

S. Is this process described from potential into actual, what we are learning in the wisdom of Kabbalah?

R. Yes.

31. S. (01:18:59) I hope my question is right. I wanted to ask where exactly is the exodus from the worlds and the Sefirot in the language of Kabbalah?

R. I am not yet talking about the world's or the Sefirot and therefore I can’t tell you. According to this story there are no worlds and Sefirot here, afterwards we will have a will to receive ranked by the levels of coarseness and the screen and then we'll talk about it but not in the meantime.

32. S. (01:19:43) If I understood correctly from this excerpt, so we gather the vessels of the Egyptians but then the illumination from above will let us come out of our ego, is that right?

R. You are right. The upper light that shines on us, it turns off all of the desires to receive and highlights the desires to bestow and with them we come out of Egypt. The fact that we leave and seemingly let go of all of our desires in order to receive in Egypt, that is incorrect. We take everything out and therefore outside of Egypt too we will then encounter some problems and events of our ego but on a different level.

33. S. (01:24:10) It is written in 236 that the Creator passes over all deficiencies. What is the right form of the deficiencies for the Creator to pass over them?

R. This is something we do not exactly know. We will learn it from our experience. We cannot yet sort it out. We do not have the device with which we can sort out these desires that are greater, smaller, closer to the Creator to correction and so forth. We have to do everything that our ability allows us to do and then you will know, you will learn from that how the Creator sorts out your desires and intentions.

34. S. (01:25:00) In 237 it is written that the Creator passes from one Egyptian to the next, what does it mean that He jumps from one to the other?

R. That He only takes the desires with the intentions to receive this is called Egyptian and the desires with the intention to bestow which is called Israeli that is what we put aside and then we hide the intentions and desires in order to receive and then the intentions that are in order to bestow are highlighted and it is as if that is the possession of those who want to come out of Egypt and that is why they are allowed to exit so it doesn't take into account our problems, our mistakes, our disturbances, our transgressions rather takes us out of Egypt as though we are completely good. That is why after the exit from Egypt we gradually begin to correct it but in order to correct them we have to receive Torah which means connection with the unique system of lights and degrees and then we turn to these degrees and their by sort out our problems with which we came out of Egypt, out of the great will to receive and then we can really work in a clear fashion to clarify all of the desires and thoughts by the upper light and correct them by the upper light and this work then already happens in connection, in association with the Creator that is why we attain Him through all of this work.

35. S. (01:27:11) In 238 it is written that in the exodus, they were freed from the enslavement in Egypt where they were enslaved to self-love so what kind of freedom is this? How can we depict this state?

R. This is a freedom of no longer being in order to receive. This means that we have exited the exile that the intention to receive used to put us into this world and without the intention to receive we are in the upper world.

36. S. (01:27:55) What is the difference between running away or correcting the will to receive in the ten?

R. We cannot correct the will to receive while being in it because it controls us and confuses us, and we cannot refrain from it and identify with the will to bestow. We have to go through an action of separation and in this separation from the will to receive when we acquire some understanding, feeling, awakening of the will to bestow and then we study the will to bestow and see how these desires can connect and also, not even desires yet but still just refined intentions starting from the degrees of 0 1 2 3 4 each and every degree and that is how we gradually learn bit by bit like children that in this gradual way over a long period of time they get to know the world and so we have to see how this happens with us. Yes?

37. S. (01:29:16) First you mentioned that we will discover that humanity isn't suffering, so should I try to feel the suffering of the world?

R. No, I do not need to really delve into the suffering of the world and suffer with it because by that I only discover the corporeal, beastly suffering of the world that has to do with the human level where they are, because they do not rise higher. Instead I need to integrate with the suffering of the world on a spiritual level and it is still not for us right now, but we will get there and then when we are already at some spiritual degree we also receive lights for them and we can shine on them, bestow to them through our vessels. This means that we become a light unto the world, this is called what we call a light unto the nations, meaning all those that are not in order to bestow which is what we call Yashar El, Israel, straight to the Creator in order to bestow. Anything outside of that is called a nation meaning a desire with the intention to receive for itself and in this way we begin to see our role in being a light unto the nations. Meaning to connect with them as AHP for GE, they will be for us and that will be how we receive lights from above and pass it on to them and achieve the correction of the entire world.

S. So to try to fill their suffering that they are not coming closer to the Creator?

R. We have to discover the suffering of the entire world so that as we raise this suffering above we receive lights for them.

S. Continuing, the feeling that humanity is not suffering, why should we pray for the Creator to not suffer from the wars?

R. We have to pray for humanity that they will join us as much as possible and discover with us the purpose of creation and fulfill the purpose of creation together with us and not that we need to suffer for that. There is no commandment of suffering, there is a commandment of going through the suffering we feel and shifting it to joy, to happiness, to good things so that we can thank the Creator. The fact that out of the Creator comes only goodness and nothing bad and this goodness of the upper light, when it enters our vessels and because of the contrast to our vessels, it invites negative forces, that is our work to transform the bad to the good and it all depends on the intention.

38. S. (01:33:05) How to turn despair and the lack of ability to connect into a new desire and a new yearning towards the Creator?

R. First of all, I need to do something simple, that whatever I know in the state that I am in, now this comes to me from the Creator. Meaning first the Creator wants it and so my first action is that I agree with it, accept it and I am grateful for receiving this. As it says the person one has to bless for the bad as he blesses for the good, or the other way around. That is it, this is what we need and then to do such actions that in no state I will feel bad, it is not that bad will not be, but one will justify the bad to the point that any bad feeling will then become good feeling.

39. S. (01:34:36) Is what I sacrifice is the lie that I'm better than the others and that supposedly I can correct them?

R. No, it does not matter if I am better or worse, each one of us because we are part of the collective system of Adam HaRishon is a guarantor for the others and passes the upper light through others. His unique light that he receives from the Creator also through everyone else, he passes it through everyone else and so each and every one of us is obligated to be connected with everyone, find its place, and fill it completely.

S. So what do I sacrifice?

R. Besides your ego, where you think you live for yourself there is nothing else to sacrifice.

40. S. (01:35:53) How can I measure the degree that I came out of Egypt with?

R. After you rise above it then you can measure it, not in the meantime.

41. S. (01:36:10) When a disturbance comes between the friends, how can we say that the disturbance is from the Creator and not to try to overcome it on my own?

R. We do not want to overcome any disturbances on our own because it is false, it only increases the ego and confusion, therefore I have to accept each and every disturbance as a disturbance between me and the friends and it comes from the Creator, if I solve it this way, it will succeed for sure.

42. S. (01:36:50) Should we pass over all of the bad things between us, what to pass over and what not to pass over?

R. We have to relate to all the friends as already corrected and I have to connect with them and add to them the upper light through me and that will cause our connection and if I will do this action in the right way then I'll see that every ten is in connection and wholeness and what was missing is really only the reception of the upper light through me.

43. S. (01:37:48) Why is there always a feeling in a person that the distance between us was a mistake and that we have to erase it? Why is it hard to keep the degree of distance and aspire to connect at the same time?

R. This is a matter of experience, you have to engage in both this and that and see how it comes together.

Excerpt 239 (01:38:48)

44. R. (01:39:32) Meaning all of the desires to receive for now are in concealment and out of the state of Egypt we take out the same will to receive that entered Egypt in the form of the children of Israel, the 70 Souls that entered Egypt and multiplied and entered Egypt and multiplied in Egypt. They exit Egypt and now they need to go through corrections. So we are only talking about those desires that we can increase and raise them above the ego, this is talking about us all of Bnei Baruch all around the world, those who long to rise above our ego and connect with others. Because the Exodus from Egypt can only be through the power of Arvut between us, still not the true mutual guarantee on the levels of the final correction but it is already some connection between us in this state where we understand that this is where we are going, where we agree with it. So there has to be some agreement that we transcend our will to receive, our individual desire by being willing to connect between us in such a way that nothing personal is left to anyone, as much as we can describe and then we escape our intention in order to receive that doesn't allow us to connect in such an initial way between us. This is called the exit, so the exit that we come to from Egypt is called in haste, which means it happens fast, in a sudden way. Why? Why do we call it that way? If the Creator plans everything and everything follows as planned, why then is it called in haste? So in haste is certainly towards the created beings, that they transcend that degree of in order to receive to in order to bestow, from separation to connection and why do we still call it in haste?

45. S. (01:42:38) We are talking about the difference in states between receiving and bestowing. I see an opportunity to gain something, and I am confused between the states, and I do not want to see the bad as bad, so what can I do in order to come out of this confusion?

R. You don't have a choice, but you have to keep going and gradually you are beginning to understand what your problem is, and you will begin to transcend it. So you are a bit falling behind in terms of the Exodus from Egypt, try to better understand it and get into it emotionally, intellectually, and that will pull you out.

Excerpt 240 (01:43:35)

46. R. (01:43:59) This means that in each of us there are thoughts and desires of in order to bestow, to connect, to love to some extent, a little bit, but between, in between those good desires does good thoughts there also those that are only in the intention to receive food himself, to be more than everyone else, there is no choice that is our nature, what do we do? So how does the upper light arrange us and correct us in such a way that we will achieve some accord with the Creator ever. So he says this, that we go out in haste because the Creator skipped and passed over from Egyptian to Egyptian in each and every one and Israel in the middle within each and every one escaped. We see that skipping to the end means that he rushed the end as though it was not yet time.

Reader continues: (01:45:12) “We see that skipping…”

47. R. (01:45:51) A very interesting thing, as if the Creator did not have time, he had to rush and make sure the process won’t be broken, that some forces will stop it in some way, as if he did it in haste. What does it mean, that you go out and the others will remain, like that? So the desires to receive remain and the desires to bestow exit and in this way he sorted out all the desires of Egypt as if through a filter, as if through a net, you shake it and what goes down and what remains in the filter remains. In this way we keep what came through Egypt and what stays, that is how we go out in haste. The haste does not come from us, it is how the Creator set it up for us in this way.

Excerpt 240 again: (01:47:12) “Why is Passover called haste?...”.

48. R. (01:48:22) That's clear, okay that's good too. There are not many questions here, also good that there are no questions at this point, it will become gradually clearer.

Excerpt 241 (01:48:42) “It's also written, and you shall eat in haste…” Twice

49. R. (01:51:11) Meaning, that the Creator sorts out the vessels that can already exit Egypt, puts them aside, and those that cannot exit Egypt, everything will have to be corrected, even those who remain in Egypt. Because the final correction is the correction of all the desires but those that can already exit right now are put aside from those that still cannot. We should truly understand that we I should also read these from the Kabbalists writings, that the final correction happens by joining of all the Egyptians, meaning all the heaviest desires that cannot exit, they specifically would have to participate with those who are ready to exit Egypt and in their participation, specifically we come to great lights of Yechida and Haya and we come to final correction.

Excerpt 241 continues: (01:52:23) “We should understand the meaning of skipping…”

Excerpt 242 (01:53:59) “We can interpret what is written…”

50. S. (01:53:33) What is the difference between what we take in order to correct later on and what remains in Egypt?

R. We, in Egypt, leave all the qualities, desires, thoughts, intentions that we cannot correct with the small lights that take us out of Egypt. We can say this, that the lights that take us out of Egypt are not even destined to correct our state, they are only in order to help us come out and to disconnect us from in order to receive, and to raise us to a certain level of bestowal, a small beginning level. It is like, how should I say? It is like a kind of disconnection from in order to receive that's why it's not a correction. The connection that we take from the intentions to receive and invert them to in order to bestow.

Excerpt 243 (02:00:53) “It is written about the Exodus from Egypt…”

51. R. (02:01:48) Clear right. Meaning, only after a person tries in everything that he has to come out of the control of his ego and cannot then comes help from above. Read it again.

Excerpt 243 again: (02:02:03) “It is written about the Exodus from Egypt…”

52. S. (02:02:54) What does it mean the gods of Egypt?

R. The gods of Egypt are all the forces that has intention to receive. We can say that all the forces in order to bestow.

S. So, there is a battle here or a struggle between the gods of Egypt and the gods of Israel?

R. Supposedly, yes, It is still not but actually it is. In general it is depicted in this way. Coming out of Egypt is called that we connect between us in the group even though our ego and we reach the first connection and there we start scrutinizing what the laws of connections are, the loss of connection or the laws of the upper world, the spiritual world and this is what we need to start studying practically. That is called the Exodus of Egypt.

S. How in the ten does the scrutiny happen?

R. I told you now what else can you scrutinize it, only in the ten. The beginning of the scrutiny in our connection in the ten is called the entrance to the spiritual work and we scrutinized the relationships between us in order to bestow. It's called that we are already in the spiritual world and then we start discovering what the laws of bestowal, mutual bestowal and through them we can already see all the forces and discernments that we have in the upper world. The upper world is revealed in the connection between us. As much as it may disappoint some people but that is the truth, that it is only revealed in the group, no questions?

Excerpt 244 (02:05:37) “The ARI wrote prior to the redemption…”

Excerpt 244 again: (02:06:37) “The ARI wrote prior to the redemption…”

53. S. (02:06:47) Meaning, everyone completely in order to receive.

Reader continues: (02:06:53) “Until he was revealed….”

54. R. (02:07:40) Meaning there are no messengers, there is nothing between the person and the Creator. A person has contact with only the Creator.

55. S. (02:07:57) What is the “I” that appears to a person, why is it not a messenger?

R. That the Creator is revealed directly as working in the person and not messengers or a system that is a transition or an adapter between the man in the Creator. Man starts discovering the Creator in his corrected qualities, according to his degree and starts feeling that he only has contact with the Creator. That is already a connection according to the senses, desires, intentions, forces between Creator and the created being, that's why it is called me and not a messenger but before it was impossible to be revealed that's why it seems to a person to be disconnected and connected through all kind of systems.

S. Is the ten a messenger?

R. The ten is not a messenger. It is one body that connects between them and to the extent they connect, and the connection is made to that extent they are connected to the Creator, and they can say it is a tight connection with the Creator maybe partial but it's still with the Creator.

S. So in this state of the exit from Egypt the Creator himself emphasizes me and not a messenger, not an angel, what do we need to learn about this state?

R. We have to learn from the state that the Exodus from Egypt is the true first connection above our ego and that is the Exodus of Egypt. The first connection between us and the ten.

S. First connection between us and the ten and the Creator acts through messengers again?

R. The Creator is revealed in that connection depending on the intensity of that connection.

56. S. (02:10:33) How to ask for bestowal for the friends, there's something that stops me from within?

R. You ask, from Lo Lishma, not for her sake you reach Lishma.

S. Because this request, there is a break is going to be false, it doesn't come from the heart .

R. It doesn't matter so you lie, from not for her sake, you reach for her sake.

S. Yesterday I remember that if he doesn't come from your heart from the inner cry it doesn't reach.

R. It doesn't matter, look how much a child cries, screams even though he doesn't really want it. We see that is a false cry but still we pay attention to him, that's how we need to do it. That is called Lo Lishma, not for her sake.

S. I'm afraid to ask because I don't know what stands before that. How do I?

R. Don't be afraid to ask even if you don't want it, even if you think you're lying, but keep asking, be like a child, still by this he grows. You cannot do it otherwise, according with your degree what you can do, to do it.

57. S. (02:12:23) I have the impression from everything we read that everything comes in its time. How can I stay in this state?

R. I need to do according with this state I am in to do everything I can to connect between me and the group and from connection in the group towards the Creator. This is the direction that corrects all degrees and states, and you ask for it and implement it.

Excerpt 245 (02:13:12) “The Exodus from Egypt was done by the Creator…” Twice

58. S. (02:15:12) The Creator is a system that we discover?

R. The Creator is for us everything. Any more questions?

Excerpt 246 (02:15:36) “The children of Israel sighted from the work…” twice

59. R. (02:17:52) Meaning after we do all the work and we think that is it, we did that, we can see that nothing works. Then an outburst, a cry from a person, how can this be? I did everything, I don't understand, I don’t know how to do anything else and nothing but then he really cries out and that's the end of the correct work, that he cannot give that cry before he finishes the work. He has hope and thoughts to attain something but there is nothing and then the cry comes out and it brings them the goal, the work is revealed.

60. S. (02:18:49) Is I and not another an attainment of the created being that he feels this?

R. Yes, yes, it belongs to the attainment of the created being.

61. S. (02:19:11) When one gets to that cry that brings you out of Egypt, is this cry for oneself or for my whole ten?

R. All these things together I want the Creator to save me, that I will be able to save my whole ten from in order to receive, I am asking for the whole ten to uplift from in order to receive in all forms together and I ask from the Creator. I also don't know how to sort these things out, what to ask about each and everything, the main thing is that I am in that direction.

62. S. (02:20:41) When it says that no messenger could help them, is this referring directly to my own devices? That this is what could not help?

R. No, it belongs to a feeling, that a person gradually starts feeling that he's in front of the Creator and in a short way, a direct way with the Creator he can demand and receive, that means that there's no messenger.

63. S. (02:21:36) What does a messenger mean? What is the messenger, and what is his work?

R. Let's say that you look at me, I am your teacher, and you think that your spiritual success depends on me, and you come and complain, with all kinds of conditions this and that, that you have to receive whether it's okay or not okay. That is called that I'm your messenger and that you make your spiritual development dependent on me, and you don’t turn directly to the Creator, what? the Creator is exalted but here there's something that is close to me, that connects me with the Creator and that's called a messenger. Usually, it clarifies in complaints that you want to tell me, and each one has a lot of complaints. There are such people who leave, there are some who are mad at something, towards me, or all together at Bnei Baruch, that is called a messenger. The truth is that there is no messenger, “There's no one else besides Him”, there is only the Creator. He completely fills and holds the soul of each and every one, that's why man needs to reach through his actions, and we get to it, through the actions and the connection with the Creator becomes more direct. “Me for my beloved and my beloved for me” and that's what we have to get to. Good question, but it demands thought and scrutiny. So, please discuss it and if you can ask me if you want.

64. S. (02:24:20) What does it mean the ten as a messenger? You said we always turn to the Creator through the ten.

R. Yes, to speak to the Creator we need to do it through the ten, otherwise, we don’t connect to Him and that each and every one of us wants to raise a question out of himself, but all these questions connect to one then we actually reach the Creator. Let's try to connect ourselves to one deficiency, one question and the Creator will be felt in us that He accepts it and answers it.

65. R. (02:29:18) Just go back on the materials, continuing, we still haven't come out of Egypt, and we also need our Congress to include in it that it would be as a sign that we are exiting Egypt. In the Congress we have to connect, do shows something that raise us from the degree of Egypt to coming out of Egypt, and I really hope that I don't have a connection with it. Also, I don't want to, you have to do what we are studying together. America will show us our path.
