Entry Into the Spiritual Degree - Selected Excerpts from the Sources, #15

1.Rav’s Introduction: We need to work at home, in the group, and in the ten, so the record of those conditions that we have to keep are before us that open the door and we enter the spiritual realm of creation. We don’t know where we are, how we are, or what is happening, so we consider that from our state, it doesn’t exist. We are given a certain feeling and imagine that we exist. This is why it is called ‘an imaginary world’. We are preoccupied with all kinds of work and problems and we want to arrange ourselves and solve everything ourselves. We need a serious, sharp, and clear-cut list of conditions we need to keep in order to pass the threshold, the opening to the true reality, the spiritual world.

We are seemingly in the womb now and cannot be born, so we need to work on this. The conditions of the entrance to the new spiritual degree needs to be scrutinized. What are the conditions that we have to take upon ourselves to be rewarded with entering the world of truth? Let’s all of us think about this, talk about this and write down and scrutinize these conditions. What do we have to achieve? How do we achieve each and every condition? How do we keep them? Let’s talk about that as well, and in this way, we will see where we are today with respect to those conditions, actions, discernments, and qualities that we must achieve in order to be worthy to be in equivalence of form with the first degree of the spiritual world. This is what I wanted to say. The rest will come through the verses, which are so good it is truly a shame that we are getting close to the end of them, but we will continue.

Excerpt 15 (03:56) Twice

2. R. (07:06) That is a true deficiency.

3. S. (07:10) Why are we given suffering and torment? Why are they a new vessel relative to the Reshimot we are given?

R. We exist in the desire to receive, this is our whole matter. This is what we are. The will to receive feels either fulfilment, filling, or a deficiency, a lack. It feels pleasure in the filling and suffering in the deficiency. We exist in between the two. We don’t know anything beyond this. We learn where we enjoy or suffer more and out of this comes our whole science. Everything is only inside the will to receive.

S. Why is suffering considered a new vessel? Why do I need to feel that I am not succeeding, that I can't connect to the Creator?

R. How will you feel that you cannot connect to the Creator? You are not just some devices. Your nature is the will to enjoy. Whatever you have inside your will to receive is measured according to pleasure or suffering. The will to receive doesn’t grasp or discover anything besides filling or lack of filling. This is how we talk. The wisdom of Kabbalah is a method intended to explain to a person how to reach an eternal and complete filling in the best possible state according to his nature. This is why it is called the wisdom of Kabbalah, reception, how to receive and fulfill themselves.

4. S. (09:46) What is a true Kli?

R. A true vessel is a lack of ability to bestow contentment to the Creator.

5. S. (10:16) Pain and suffering due to the lack of connection to the Creator seems a little bit like egoism. Maybe the world is not connected to the Creator because of me. How do we come out of the pain and suffering of egoistic ways?

R. Yes, the words are not precise. The inclination towards the Creator does sound egoistic. ‘I want to reach the Creator’, ‘I want to bestow contentment upon Him’, etc., but they all take place and are realized only in the vessels of bestowing in order to bestow, above our egoistic nature in faith above reason. I want to be adhered to the Creator sounds very egoistic, that it is I however the essence of the action exists above or outside the person.

6. S. (11:38) We eventually come to a demand to bring contentment to the Creator as a result of the efforts and deeds. How do we come to bring Him contentment while working and struggling inside yourself?

R. It is true that my thoughts and goals are not to bring contentment to the Creator, but by engaging in all kinds of forms of connection and trying to get closer to spirituality, even incorrectly, nevertheless we get an illumination from spirituality. We are influenced by this illumination and it qualifies us and we suddenly begin to feel that in order to bestow is not so alien to us. If I adopt these qualities which are in order to bestow, nothing will happen to me. Maybe it is good if I rise above and forget about myself a little bit and enjoy an act of bestowal. These things happen gradually. In Kabbalah it is considered that we are under the influence of the upper light and it

arranges us, corrects us, and changes the values within us. This is how we advance.

S. What does it mean to receive this quality of bestowal and not worry about anything whatsoever?

R. In this world, I need to do whatever falls on me. There’s nothing I can do about it, but with respect to spirituality, I need to rise above my egoistic desires, even though I exist in them, and see the goal. I want to be in an inclination, in an action of bestowing to the Creator, but in order to bestow to the Creator, I have to bestow to others and through them I learn how to reach the Creator because the Creator is called ‘the totality’, the sum total. I begin to feel what it means to bestow by bringing myself closer to the friends. It doesn’t exist in my nature, but to the extent that I am willing, as much as I don’t want to, to perform actions of bestowing, to appreciate and not regret the fact that I am performing the actions of bestowal, the Creator gives me the opportunity to show me what an act of bestowal is. There are many degrees, many states that are replaced and exchanged. This is how we get closer to true bestowal.

7. S. (15:51) What is the real lack that carries us to the real Kli?

R. The real lack is called a ‘point in the heart’ which is that same point where we were all connected in the system of Adam HaRishon, each and every one that was connected to the general vessel. We disconnected because the pleasure that was revealed in the vessel was greater than the desire to be together. This is why we have expanded and disconnected. It is called the ‘sin of the tree of knowledge’. The pleasure was more than what was possible to work above in order to bestow. Now we want to awaken the force that will help us reach bestowal, that is, the importance of connection will be greater than the importance of the pleasure we get if we are not connected and we simply enjoy life as much as possible.

All of our work is to get closer to each other as much as possible, to draw the reforming light, and the very first measure, to a small extent, to truly feel what connection means. Try to help one another to prefer the connection over all other corporeal states. If I prefer connection with the friends in order to reach connection with the Creator, this is already a free choice in the spiritual state. We want to go towards that even though we don’t yet feel Him. This is how we advance. We need to try to connect between us and discover the force of connection between us called the ‘Creator’ and in this way we go forward.

8. S. (19:13) How do we not get trapped in enjoying acts of bestowal?

R. We can enjoy the fact that the Creator is giving us the possibility to bestow to one another. I can enjoy the fact that I am bestowing, but not as a result of my action, but the very action itself. The wisdom of Kabbalah brings us pleasures. We need to understand that I need to enjoy because the purpose of creation is pleasure, but what do I enjoy? Like in Rabash’s story, I carry the suitcase for the Creator even though it is very heavy, heavier than all of the baggage in this world, it doesn’t seem heavy to me because the Creator seems to me greater than this whole world to however, I enjoy it and it does not even seem to me. This is what we need to reach. We need to reach this. I can enjoy carrying a great suitcase and it doesn’t feel great because my spirit is uplifted by bestowing contentment upon the Creator covers everything. This is called ‘love covers all crimes.

covers everything as this is called that ‘love covers all crimes’, and we then reach the Creator’s forces, truly creation itself.

9. S. (21:39) Until a true deficiency appears in him which he attained through exertion in the ascent and descent, it is known that from a descent you can be still without touching him so what exertion do we do?

R. In the ascents as well as the descents, we have labor to sort exactly what it is we feel and where we are getting it from. Of course, it is the Creator directly or indirectly, and how should we accept whatever is revealed. I enjoy the fulfillment or the intention of who am I receiving this fulfillment from. So here, I need to sort out myself and to check exactly where do I exist and where am I with my thoughts and desires, and to whom am I turning, where are we heading.

10. S. (22:53) When are they conditions, I need to enter the spiritual degree?

R. This is what we are studying right now. The conditions are simple in two words, equivalence of form, the spiritual degree is the level of bestowing that you are being shown. That is, if you are willing to do it, you will enter and if you are not willing and not ready then you don't enter. It's very simple. Here, there is no cue, no line that you have to wait on. Rather each and every one that is qualified for the spiritual degree that they are studying, they get in, there is no problem. It is just a matter of congruence, what we in the wisdom of Kabbalah call equivalence of form.

S. Is the real deficiency beginning to turn up when I think about the deficiencies of the friends more than my own lacks?

R. Yes. In general, it is true however the question is whether we are in it, whether we don't forget about it and whether we are taking care of it.

11. S. (24:40) How do we need to do the work of the scrutiny of the list of conditions so the opening to the true reality will open up for us?

R. The list of conditions you are supposed to know it. We have been studying it for the last year and a half. Well, let's say I have been studying it throughout the last year-and-a-half.

S. You simply recommend it, to scrutinize it, to write and talk about it so the list of conditions will be clear to check how we are keeping these conditions?

R. A year-and-a-half ago in February 2020, we had a Congress. Following the Congress, even in the congress the coronavirus was already spreading. But following the Congress we decided that we are going to enter a new style of study and within a month while we were getting organized for this, we got into it and along with it we also started a sequence of lessons we're all of these lessons should have brought us to the goal, to the revelation of the creator. With this we are going forward and until now this is where we are in that. Now it depends on how much each one is absorbing from each and every lesson and there is a difference there. Nevertheless, there are people who just watch the lessons twice or once a week and there are those who are doing it on a daily basis. There is also a certain talent to absorbing it to what extent it is correct and perfect or not, but whatever it is, we are in a state where our progress is that each one should see to what extent he is improving his qualities and he is advancing towards the understanding of the revelation of the Creator, and the feeling of the revelation of the Creator through the friends with all of the conditions that we need for that. This is what we have to do so what are you asking?

S. I am relating to the advice you said we should do the work that should be clear to us about the list of conditions. Let's say now the 10 or the whole word Kli that wants to implement this advice what do they need to do? Go back a year and a half and go over all of the lessons?

R. No, that is not what I said. I just want to show you that we are going in a certain order. Now we have reached a state that we are learning what are the initial conditions that a person has to reach in order to enter the spiritual world, the feeling of spirituality, the feeling of spiritual forces so what are the conditions a person has to take on that he has to feel within himself, to establish within himself. What qualities does he feel that he exists in a spiritual world? Nothing changes as even now we are in spirituality, in the end of correction but who feels that? And I feel myself as an animal except for the food, sex, money, honor, and knowledge, he doesn't want anything. There is also the point in the heart that wants something, some small addition of this whole spirituality. We need to scrutinize what is it that we have to develop within us so that we will have a vessel for the feeling of spirituality, the spiritual world exists right here as it doesn't exist anywhere else, it exists right here together with us. However, we don't feel it. We don't feel its source, the Creator. What are we lacking to feel, specifically in us, in our state we are told that through the connection between the friend, through the prayer, what precisely are is our deficiency as much as we will engage in that we will scrutinize this deficiency of what we are missing the scrutiny is like a prayer that we will raise to the Creator to help us to establish them correctly, to resolve and open them up to incorporate with them and to enter the feeling of the upper reality, the spiritual reality.

S. How does the scrutiny practically take place?
R. I don't know, maybe there are many different forms. I think we need to do it as much as each 10 chooses and later on we'll talk between us and we will see what is more suitable and also it may be for each 10 something is better.

S. If we ask each and every 10, they will say something different is better and scrutinizing the excerpts and the deficiency, the sources so what is important to emphasize to do this?

R. Do you have before you the conditions that you feel you have to achieve in order to enter the upper world, actions of bestowing to the Creator? It is worthwhile for us to scrutinize this and then we will talk as it doesn't take a lot of time and you realize that it may be beneficial so just trust me.

12. S. (32.26) The fact that I don't feel any connection, but on the contrary disconnection and I continue to come to the morning lesson and I am drawn to spirituality. Is this how I acquired my spiritual vessel?

R. Scrutinize it.

13. S. (33:16) It is written about two kinds of fulfillment; the scale of fulfilling comes to a certain quota and they are filled with two different fillings. What are these?

R. That is incorrect. We have to prepare the vessel as much as the vessel will expand from time to time of course we will receive the revelation of the Creator in it, in a way which is more advanced and more complete, this is how it works.

14. S. (33:58) To acquire equivalent to form is this enough for it to be in the 10?

R. Yes, it is even said the minimum of many is 2, if you have no more than one friend, there are none, the creator doesn't arrange this for you but with that one additional friend you can already reach the state where this is your vessel and you are connecting everything. However there has to be someone else besides you otherwise you can't reach anything resembling the Creator because the Creator is also outside of you, he is foreign. Here you need someone who is close to you so that you can start to work on him and improve yourself to the extent that you reach out and connect with him and love and this way you get closer to the Creator, you are simply learning it. With the Creator there is a purpose of creation, connection so there has to be a means to reach that degree of connection and this is why there is the decline of the world and why we have to labor and exert and climb the entire ladder until we reach complete adhesion

Excerpt 16 (35:38 - 37:57) Twice

15. R. (37:02) The fact that he feels specifically that he is retreating, the creator has arranged this feeling for him in order to . . .

Reader continues: “so he will feel the pain of not having adhesion with the Creator….”

16. S. (38:06) I'm sure that many friends can feel the excerpt that we read just now. The question is why would a person want adhesion with the Creator? This is not clear to begin with.

R. No one wants it to start with, no one, because adhesion to the Creator is something that is hated as its opposite to our nature. It’s completely opposite of us. But by engaging in all kinds of acts of bestowal and inevitably no choice in doing so, and you would engage in doing the acts of bestowal even though that he is going to attain money and honor and so forth, but in acts of bestowal toward everyone although these connections are all egotistical...and this is what we see in the world competitions in all kinds of things, but nevertheless we are connecting, we are bestowing upon one another. Then we begin to feel what it means to come closer and what it means to distance. Meaning that we’re in such relations even though everyone wants to succeed, to earn, to win. But between us what happens is we start to understand more, a little more the relationships between people, otherwise we wouldn't connect with one another whatsoever. This is called ‘go and earn from one another’. What does it mean, ‘go’? Come closer and make a living from one another. Start to learn from one another. How you can lie to one another, earn and be rewarded by one another in all kinds of egotistical ways. From this you will develop an understanding that it’s not worthwhile to just kill each animal, but rather you can benefit, you can profit and then you will see that from the connections, the different kinds of connections, you can succeed. And this way you will begin the corrections. And this is actually our way, the way of humanity.

S. How do we get from this point of making a living from each other to the recognition of evil to adhesion?

R. Inevitably, there are those who are advancing that have a point in the heart. The point in the heart begins to awaken and it draws a person forward. That’s something else, that’s a new desire. It’s different and it didn’t belong whatsoever to human development. And there’s the human development that’s developing right now. There are fires, there’s floods, and there’s earthquakes and another pandemic from above that’s covering it all. People are going crazy. They don't know where to run away to. They’re upon an earth like a little animal in a cage that is being beaten and it isn’t given a possibility to run away from the cage. That’s humanity today. That’s why the airports are being shut down and all kinds of connections because it’s just harmful, and it's all taking place why? The Creator wants people to check what the connection between them is and what kind of connection there needs to be. Otherwise, it will be terrible for them. They enjoyed the connections between them previously, they had a certain good period of time. Now it won't work, it won’t go. You want to advance then only according to my plan the Creator says. That is only in the direction of the general law of nature, bestowal, connection, love. You want that? Please. You don’t want that? I am going to put upon you a king like Haman and then you will want because the blows will be bigger than the spiritual work. And then you will also want spiritual work, that’s it. The Creator is arranging these things and we will want to do this. That’s why our work is in checking these things, implementing them and as fast as possible teach everyone to also learn...and to implement it. To change inevitably, to change it without any choice in the ways that they behave. And that will happen. The Creator has everything in His hands, time, forces, sufferings. He will send this virus, he’ll send another one, fires, flooding, earthquakes, a few other things, you'll see what will happen. Already now, in the journalism in the media you can see that they’re writing that in twenty years the earth will be done with if it continues this way. And we read this and it’s as if it doesn't concern us. We will have to receive greater sufferings, more real ones, but with that we need to engage in dissemination. It’s simply the time, the time that we must use them. The more you use dissemination, the more you execute dissemination, it’s the entrance ticket, to spirituality. Because by that you’re bringing thousands more and therefore even though you didn't merit on your own, through them you will merit.

17. S. (45:21) The fact that I have retreated is felt very strongly according to the desire to adhere to the Creator. The fact that I feel pain out of it is the opposite, some kind of indifference developed so what am I doing incorrectly?

R. Everything is fine, just know that you are coming to the lessons, and you are in every single lesson, filling up your place. As much as you can you open your eyes and your ears and absorb the material, as much as you’re capable. No one demands any more than that from you. And then you will see the extent in which the changes will come.

18. S. (46:24) In the very last sentence it says that all that one wants is to bring contentment to the Creator. How can we stop perceiving this externally, and find the author’s meaning?

R. It took a long time for the author to reach that himself. Therefore, don’t worry, continue on the path and you, too, will reach it. We are in the hands of the Creator and He is leading and arranging things for us. Try to pray to Him. Ask, demand, care. It doesn’t matter how, but in some manner inside you constantly feel that you are connected to Him, that you have a line of connection, a string that connects between you, a certain inner line, an inner string that you are connected to the Creator with.

S. If we continue with this process, will this form transform from something external to something internal?

R. Yes, this is constantly changing, and we are changing. This will lead us to reveal the connection with the Creator in a disclosed, powerful and great manner,

19. S. (48:25) The ten gives pleasure to the Creator when we care for one another and when we keep the Mitzvot, commandments. How does the 10-give contentment to the Creator?

R. By connecting between you. To the extent that each of you feels and enjoys this connection that takes place in the ten, and by that you want the Creator to enjoy it with you. Try to accept Him into your ten. The Creator is called “the including one”, the one that includes it all. That’s what you discover and feel that is where He is.

20. S. (49:46) Can the aimed force of intention of Bnei Baruch create a chain reaction and make changes in the spiritual world, like a nuclear action?

R. Yes, it can.

21. S. (50:48) You described humanity is in a state of ‘go and make a living off of one another’ and in parallel nature is beginning to …?

R. This is not on a business level where you can earn from each other. This is that together, we can draw the reforming light upon each other.

S. Does the fact that humanity is trying to make a living out of one another also help them learn how to connect correctly?

R. That time period has passed. We have come to a state where the whole world is connected. The media, business, everything around earth is ready for the fact that we must begin to sort them only in order to bestow. Otherwise, we will discover that it is all simply disappearing.

S. What is the smallest possible progress that we can have in mass towards this law of mutuality?

R. For the time being, living simply on earth, through all kinds of blows that we are well-acquainted with, from the media and all kinds of other things, is causing a heaviness. What else can there be? All these businesses are slowly falling. If a big business falls today, then thousands of smaller businesses fall as well. We will see this, we will be witnesses to this. They will be like buildings that will fall also because they do not need to exist. Most businesses are built upon a game of accountants and lawyers that are artificial and that we don’t need. Eventually we will see that everything we have built has no future.

S. What is the very first step? How should this new game appear?

R. The new game will only be with anything that has to do with bestowal. To the extent that there is a force of bestowal there, it will remain. All of the rest will not. We will see that nature truly covers them, only not in a direct manner. Where there is more ego, it will fall slowly. We will have to discover this, talk about this and it will come.

Excerpt 17 (54:46) Twice

22. S. (58:04) It is the proportion of effort between the different Sefirot?

R. We need both the main thing is we prepare ourselves for connection between us and from that to a connection with the Creator that is the main thing as there is before and after. So first, we have to come to connection in order to bestow to the Creator to come to a connection with Him and with that, in parallel with the lesser intensity between us, we need to bestow humanity. For the time being, it is this way until we have connection and a certain revelation of degrees, then “from your actions we will know you”, and from what is revealed to each one in the 10 it will be with you and its fashion and its style and from that if we will advance. That is how it is for the time being.

23. S. (59:45) How is reaching a complete low place different from individual work and reaching it in the 10?

R. If you come to a low place in the complete 10, it is truly a powerful vessel with which you can reach to the Creator and he will answer to you.

24. S. (01:00:36) “What is in your hands, that do”. What does this mean?

R. That whatever you are capable of influencing and giving to the friends and through them to the Creator, you do and each time it seems to you that you are doing the maximum and there is nothing more than you can add even though that later other conditions are revealed that you can join to that to add end to do but through the action you feel that you are doing it to the end everything.

25. S. (01:01:24) From the excerpt we get the impression the true prayer is born only when a person has already made all of the efforts, invested everything but before the true prayer is born, we still have prayers on a daily basis so what are those prayers? Do they accumulate and how when you're in this process and you see that you're kind of cheating, how can you not lose your responsibility or importance?

R. You don't have to go through all the words in the parable or someplace where it is written but the prayer that the Torah obliges a person to pray, it is in order for him to see how much he has to pray for or not. Because if there was no such obligation a person wouldn't think he has a necessity to reach an appeal or request to the Creator.

S. So can we say that this process elevates from below everything that we have?

R. Yes.

Excerpt 18 (01:02:55) Twice

26. S. (01:05:48) What are the two degrees and what does it mean in our work first of all here Lo Lishma?

R. All our actions that they are correct, yet the intentions are not correct. Let's say that I am willing to do all kinds of actions to friends in the group and I want them to connect and for them to have it good in the group. But my intention of why I am doing this is in order for them to connect in the Creator will be revealed inside the 10 and I will get the results from it. This is called Lo Lishma, the action is actually the right action but the result is completely not correct.

S. What does it mean that we eventually reach the next state? He writes here that I'm not even concerned about myself.

R. After I do many such actions in Lo Lishma, then the reforming light comes and I go through two actions of Lishma, we will talk about that, it is a little early for us.

27. S. (01:07:45) If the Creator is good and benevolent why do we need to pray to Him?

R. He is the good that does good but He has a certain valve that opens and spreads amongst us all kinds of good qualities, good successes or not. So, to the extent we want to do these actions in order to bestow to others and through them to the Creator. Through this intention we are opening up the path to all the abundance that comes our way. If we don't perform this true correct intention to the benefit of the Creator then we cannot invite upon ourselves, as well, all that is good because it turns out that I receive it and that is completely against the purpose of creation. Until the person receives the quality of bestowing, the true one, on a certain degree, then from above he is not given such a feeling, such a light, but rather only under the condition that he needs to pass this on to be demanding to transfer this light to others, then he receives. When he transfers his light to others then he merits all of the light because he needs to connect to himself all of the deficiencies of everyone to raise them to the Creator, to receive the feeling from the Creator and to pass that filling to them.

S. The demand should be to feel the deficiencies of the others and to ask for them?

R. Certainly, what else can you depict in reality except for the general deficiency that is in everyone and the filling which is in the Creator. I want to discover in me, the deficiency of all of humanity, to invite all the revelation of the Creator to me, so it will take place.

S. I, also, want to ask the Creator to change me?

R. That is already on the way, the deficiency of the world, who wants deficiency for filling, rather I want all the deficiencies of everyone that I am willing to make room for them in my heart and then I for myself, raise all of these deficiencies together to the Creator. That is considered that I become a conduit, a transition between humanity and the Creator which is our role.

28. S. (01:11:36) Today I wanted to ask from the 10 what makes the king happy and bring some joy?

R. The King has joy from you coming closer to him but this coming closer is according to the equivalence of the qualities of form, if you want to bestow like the King who wants to bestow then you become partners, you become close to him even connected to him and then you work together. That is how all of creation returns to being connected to the Creator.

29. S. (01:12:35) What happens with the law, the good and doing good in relation to the 10, when we take the role that He is talking about here. It is not clear exactly what he is saying?

R. I don't understand your question. Try to ask in a different way or style.

30. S. (01:13:33) The state of Lishma is this a privilege or a gift?

R. Also, but because it is a merit, why is it a merit? Because we can't come to the quality of Lishma so we receive it from above but if the Creator doesn't give it, we can't attain it by our self this is why it is truly a merit, a gift. On the one hand, it comes to us because there are conditions in reality that if we keep them one by one then we deserve to get the gift and merit it, the gift that what you're in for, the gift the ability to bestow to one another without any consideration for ourselves. Meaning to perform the acts of bestowing purely, cleanly, if I will be able to do this, I will feel it as the greatest gift I could ever get from the Creator.

31. S. (01:15:02) I don't feel annulled before the 10 so I will never have equivalence to form with the Creator, so what prayer should I pray?

R. That he would help me to understand what I have to do, not more than that. It is like a baby: he is lying down, his mom is looking at him and he throws his hands and feet every which way, what does he want? He wants to understand how to come close to her, how to feel and absorb from his mom what she wants to give him and he opens his mouth with his hands and his feet going all around because he just wants to connect to his mom, this is what we need to be and this is what we need to do. Although you and I are old, this is how we need to make ourselves.

32. S. (01:16:40) You said scrutiny is like prayer, how to take a scrutiny through the 10 through the intellectual scrutiny to a true prayer?

R. You must check several times a day if you can compile a prayer from your efforts, are you capable as a result of your efforts to put together a prayer, a clear prayer, three sentences maximum, short ones.

S. Before we reach prayer, there has to be scrutiny?

R. How can you pray if you don't scrutinize what you need because prayer is raising a deficiency from the created beings to the Creator. It's not clear to you what you are raising, if it's not clear what do you think will happen?

S. You feel the scrutiny to pray is that through writing between the friends?

R. Let it be writing or correspondence, as long as it is not an idle type of writing. If you decide we have half an hour and during this half an hour we need to scrutinize how to pray to the Creator, what we need to ask him and do this twice a day. This could be a great incentive for the advancement of the 10.

Excerpt 19 (01:18:42) Twice

33. S. (01:22:07) We learn that there is None Else Besides Him and coming from Lo Lishma to Lishma seems like great luck to a person on behalf of the Creator?

R. What about it?

S. So where is my role because I am activated by the Creator, meaning if I just remain on the path so it will come on its own?

R. In spite of all of your wisdom you have to invest forces to reach bestowing and to enter into a relationship of bestowing between you and the Creator and between you and the friends which means to rise to the upper world, to the forces of bestowing and then you will understand the matter at hand. Before that you will understand nothing, you aren't even born, it is like turning into an embryo in his mother's womb.

34. S. (01:23:34) All of these processes we can do but I remember you said once, but in the end that there won't be that little part called luck nothing will succeed.

R. That has nothing to do with us. You have to do everything, you can do whatever is in your power, whatever is in your hand to do, you should do. What comes from to you from above it's none of your business, on the contrary the fact that you can't see it saves you because you can do all kinds of actions in order to bestow as if they are not in order to bestow, as if you're going to profit from them and this gives you fuel. The Creator is lying to you, it is making certain you work as if you're going to receive a reward and when you work the reward that you receive when you finish the work, it appears totally different and you agree with the change in the reward.

35. S. (01:24:52) The question about the excerpts saying that many will fall on the path?

R. So what is the question, we will fall and rise again, fall and rise again and we will reach everyone, everyone will make it, it doesn't matter what souls they are, what kind of exertion, in the end everything will return to its root.

36. S. (01:25:39) In these few excerpts when we read about praying from Lo Lishma to Lishma, it seems like everyone's prayer, what is a mutual prayer in the 10, what is the private prayer and what is the prayer from the center of the 10?

R. When we begin to work with the prayer later, not right away we begin to discover that the prayer between us is fine but towards the Creator we simply have to connect between us or we will have no power to reach Him.

37. S. (01:27:03) What is control over the heart, where is this heart?

R. The heart is all of our desires. If I could keep them all together and control them this would be control of everyone's heart.

38. S. (01:27:32) In the previous excerpt he says the way to reach is not limited by time, we learn that time is the state and then he writes the ones who are the qualifiers, who are they?

R. The users, those who are in the group.

S. The friends, the 10?

R. The friends, yes, you depend on them 100%, if you could buy them with money, you would.

39. S. (01:28:22) Today it is all so that people fall and will fall on the path in Lo Lishma, and will die without wisdom, it is like that today, that people will find Lo Lishma?

R. How can you ask about external conditions whether it is suitable for us or not, the Creator is arranging it.

S. I'm asking today how can we fall in Lo Lishma?

R. Yes, you see today how many people still leave.

S. What is the reason for following?

R. I can't say the reason is they give you a thousand reasons and they are right about everything. I have no time, I have more important things to do, I will come later, all sorts of things they will curse us, they see it as a lie, they see that they're not getting anywhere there are all kinds.

S. So the 10 hold the friends in the group?

R. I don't want to get into all of this scrutiny because there are simply things that I am cutting out of myself that I don't want to get into and explain, later you’ll understand and see what the Sitra Achra is and how does it live.

40. S. (01:30:25) Why is the state described in the last excerpt in 18 called in order to bestow not receiving in order to bestow?

R. That is, that still that degree where the form and force of bestowing cannot be more than what he himself is if he's doing, to bestow in order to bestow, to receive to bestow, to receive to give, bestowing these two actions he is not capable of doing. He can’t bestow when he doesn’t get pleasure, when he receives pleasure from bestowing, he bestows but when he receives pleasure that filled him and he can convert that to bestowing, he still cannot do it but it is on the way and he will learn how to do it, everything depends upon the recognition of the greatness of the Creator.

41. S. (01:31:53) Does corruption mean a person wants to bestow to the Creator and not to the friend?

R. That's how it works it seems that he wants to bestow to the Creator and not to the friend but the fact that he doesn't want to bestow to the friend is a sign that he doesn't want to bestow to the Creator is since through the specifically he bestowed to the Creator and only in this way from love of the people to the love of the Creator. In the time being he lies to himself that the Creator is his whole life.

42. S. (01:32:55) Can we be in bestowal and not be aware of it?

R. Yes and no it is not our work, it is like a baby who by the mere fact that he exists gives contentment to his mother, he doesn't do anything but just his mere existence gives her pleasure.

43. S. (01:33:36) Is the habit to take care of friends in the 10 is that Lo Lishma?

R. The habit of caring for the friends in the 10 is the degree of Lo Lishma, a habit is a habit but it doesn't say much about our advancements because it is a habit, it is possible. I have it as a medium, it is like a stop along the way, we have yet to learn about these forms, let's advance practically to such states and we will learn how it is going to be.

44. S. (01:34:25) You said everything depends on the greatness of the Creator, can we speak about this a bit?

R. No, I have no time for it, you will think of the greatness for the Creator and it is good to think about it all the time.

45. S. (01:35:07) If you could say even the smallest thing on the value of giving contentment to the Creator, what is the value?

R. The value is that I think about it all the time, that I try to be adhered to it all the time regardless of the deeds and the actions and the thoughts or anything as long as the Creator remains in my field of vision.

46. R. We go to the next part of the lesson we have finished with this document, the entrance to the spiritual degree. I recommend to everyone to let us work on this more and more to try and go over it again and study It again by ourselves, to see how inside of it there are all sorts of sentences. Have sentences that you missed and you need to realize what is written here is truly Holy, it is a law that if we keep it, we will enter the spiritual feeling, the spiritual world and if not the other way around, God forbid.
