Part 1:

Growing Stronger in There Is None Else Besides Him - Selected Excerpts from the Sources. #10

1. Rav Intro: Yes, in light of all the external and internal conditions we should especially be connected between us and grow stronger, all of us around there is None Else Besides Him, awaken our connection with the single force of nature and that He will help us and will give us the mind, the feeling, and the strength, the opportunity to be in increasing connection. And in this way to advance onwards more and more towards the complete correction of the whole world and this is why we will read about it during the lesson.

Reading Excerpt #10 (01:40 - 02:50) Baal HaSulam, Shamati, Article No. 1, "There Is None Else Besides Him"

2. R. (02:53) We, in our world, understand that there are two forces: plus and minus, the good force and the bad force, in all the different states, this isn't so, in truth. In truth, there is no bad force so that there is something that is against the Creator but rather there is None Else Besides Him, this is the meaning of there is None Else Besides Him, there is no force opposite the Creator but rather everything that is happening is only from a single force from the side of the Creator. Everything that He does, He does it only in order for us to come closer to Him, in spite of this bad force which He also manages. So it turns out that seemingly two forces come out of the Creator, but do not think that these two forces mean that there is a good Creator and a bad Creator but rather, simply, that same force that works on us in a bad way, it is our ego, the ego within us. And so we need to distinguish it inside of ourselves between the good force that we can draw from the Creator so it will rule us, and if not, then the bad force will rule us, as the Creator says, “I created the evil inclination”. And this is our work, all of the time, in each and every state, to try to detect that there is only one force in the world and opposite this force ,there is our ego which doesn't let us be adhered to the good force, the only force of the Creator.

3. S. (05:01) All of a person's thoughts are from the Creator, how to reach such a state?

R. A state in which a person completely identifies with nature in which we all exist, that there is nothing else besides the single nature, the single force of nature, and it convinces us gradually that only this force exists. And so in order for us to be directed towards it in a precise manner, this nature that is the Creator, also creates forces that are the opposite of it, He seemingly plays with us, and that, seemingly, it seems to us that there are other forces. And we must constantly establish ourselves so that we are directed towards the only force of creation, the force of the Creator.

S. When there is some kind of antagonism or something against the Creator, the force of the Creator and what is in contrast to it, then you can be in contact with the Creator. What's scary is that without any coping with it then this force, the connection, just dissipates, it disappears and you forget that it was even there, how to make all of your thoughts about the Creator?

R. This in principle is our work, this is our work, we have to constantly direct ourselves towards the One, Unique force of the Creator that governs everything, that does everything inside of us, that creates and arranges all of our thoughts and desires, everything.

S. And Kabbalists, there are such states that a person, he doesn't forget about connection with the Creator he's constantly in contact with Him in every thought and in every desire?

R. That is the complete providence, when a person reaches the complete full providence of the Creator. then he is already with Him in a state of complete unity, a state of adhesion. But this is something that we have to attain, gradually, bit by bit through building inside of us all of these systems of knowing and feeling and the definitions so that only the Creator is what appears, is what exists before you.

S. Today we will go out to our day, if you can advise us how not to fall from this and how to connect to: every thought to the Creator?

R. The most important thing is for us to calibrate ourselves and in order to calibrate ourselves toward the Creator we have to depict to ourselves every moment, all the time, that you are governed by Him, you are governed by Him, He controls you completely. There are no other thoughts and or other feelings and or other desires. Nothing happens inside of you independently from within you but rather all of this only stems out of the fact that the Creator is inside of you. In truth, this is how it is but you have to unite with this, to connect with this. The connection, the unity with this force of the Creator inside of you, this is our goal to gradually discover Him inside of us so much, so that besides Him you will not feel anything.

4. S. (09:50) This war between the two forces, the war on the intention of where our focus is, it was always. I feel that since this last war started the intensity of the inner war of where my focus is, my attention is, between the events and between there is None Else Besides Him became very intense, very strong. What is the state of this ongoing battle between us, between these two forces, what does it stabilize in us?

R. This war, and in general all the wars, all the problems that manifest in the world, it's only in order to show us how much more we still lack to reach adhesion between us and adhesion with the Creator. This, of course, is according to our development, according to our state, according to our degree; this is why, that's how we should see the things that take place.

S. Is our war of Bnei Baruch, those on the path, should it be such an eternal war, all the time twenty-four hours a day?

R.Yes, our spiritual war should be against the forces that separate between us and between us and the Creator, twenty-four hours a day.

5. S. (11:42) We know that the most effective means or vessel in reality is the ten so how can we feel on the one hand, that the noises on the outside are growing stronger, on the other hand, also the work and the ten comes much stronger so how do we use the ten such that our perception will change?

R. Our perception will change only according to how much we direct ourselves, so we have the friends: if all the friends think about the force of bestowal inside of the ten and we, by that, prepare ourselves to be in there is None Else Besides Him, this is how we discover the Creator, one individual cannot discover Him, two maybe, but indeed if there are ten, it's optimal. If this ten think in that way this is how they are directed to discover the Creator in that mutual force between them, it has to succeed.

6. S. (13:21) This inner struggle that we have inside of us, this inner struggle, the moment every friend joins the struggle it makes the struggle of each friend easier?

R. Yes, of course, of course, this is how it is.

7. S. (13:38) We just read that even in the worst possible state, he shouldn't say that there's another authority, he shouldn't leave His authority. What does it mean “to not leave His domain”?

R. To constantly always be connected with that same upper force which is the source of all of the deeds, actions, thoughts and everything depends only on Him.

S. But if you see that you can't be in that all the time?

R. Then you have friends, with a group thought, each one can hold himself directed to the Creator.

S. If you see all these things in life and you're not able to relate it to the Creator then what's the cause, when do you succeed and when do you not succeed?

R. When you disconnect from the ten you are already in the ‘free air’ then of course you get all kinds of thoughts from the world, the environment and they throw you from one end to the other. But, if you are connected to the ten and, all in all, in the ten there is this willingness, this knowledge, this direction, this effort to think only about the fact there is None Else Besides Him then, all of the disturbances only direct the ten to how to be even more adhered to each other, this is how they quickly attain the goal, that they all connect in the goal which is the Creator.

S. He writes here that “all his thoughts will be about Him”, what does it mean that the thoughts are about the Creator?

R. In there is None Else Besides Him, Good and doing good, that He alone does and will do all the deeds, that He is the one who operates for the better or, G-d forbid, as in what seems to us as bad and we should always have a grip on Him.

S. Yesterday, I spoke to a friend and he was really sorry for not being able to justify the Creator for everything that is happening now. How can we help the friends succeed in justifying the Creator in everything he sees now?

R. If it is a friend who’s one of ours then he simply needs to hear, to learn what we are learning and be together with us; if he's someone that's not one of ours then it's very difficult to explain it.

S. Our friend, one of our friends.

R. Then he has only one problem, to be more connected to his ten, that's it, because in the ten which is more or less corrected, advancing toward the purpose of life, he has what to hold onto. He connects with his friends and together, all of us ‘each one shall help his friend’, they all hold on to the Creator. And then the forces of separation that the Creator operates deliberately, they cannot tear us apart, disconnect us, either the person or his group from the Creator. Even though they have to fight, they have to grow stronger but with the Creator on His side, He also elevates the forces of separation in order to always give them an opportunity to be, to get stronger.

S. So the entire perception of there is None Else Besides Him, it sounds like it all depends on his ten, not on him and to the extent that he is connected to them?

R. That is true, yes, an individual person by himself can not do it, a person can only connect to the ten, become incorporated in them, and in this way to go forward.

8. S. (18:51) We have a state in which we have to connect and then reach there is None Else Besides Him is becoming very clear in the last few days, how can we succeed in clinging to the Creator when the friends fill your entire horizon, the friends are felt. He is not felt.

R. The Creator is not felt because you do not feel the necessity for this force that is holding you together. it is the Creator. Without the Creator you don't have a group, you don't have anything, you need to realize that only there is None Else Besides Him is what builds the feeling of reality for you in which you exist.

S. It means that a person in this work that was done, he needs to understand where did the fact that we even have a ten come from or the fact that we succeed or not to succeed to connect, something like that?

R. Yes, yes.

9. S. (20:21) To discover, to feel there is None Else Besides Him, we have to think about Him, does it mean to think about our ten or this is about?

R. No, not only about the ten, about the force that holds the ten together, the inner force in the Ten, the force that is above the ten that pulls it to the spiritual state, this is what we need.

10. S. (21:18) Do we need a prayer for the confidence in the Creator, this already a prayer?

R. We need to ask from the Creator because it expands your vessels of perception, your senses, and you have to take care of that, be concerned with it. This is why the Creator places before you, deliberately, such conditions in which you are unable to come out by yourself, you can't come out by yourself but rather you have to ask of Him.

S. How should we practically advance through a disturbance?

R. You have to connect with the friends in a common yearning to turn to the Creator and to beg before Him to ask that He will raise us to Him.

S. What to ask for the friend, as soon as we scrutinize the prayer, each one has their own opinion.

R. His views you must connect between them and support each other.

11. S. (23:27) We are still in Israel with several friends from the world Kli, we got canceled flight tickets, we bought even new tickets, they also got canceled, we keep on praying all day for each other for connection, what is the approach in which you should advise?

R. The approach, I don't know: in relation to getting out, in relation to the flights, only to pray that it will become possible for us, that the external conditions will quickly allow us to go back to normal life, okay? Also let's pray, what can we do, this is the present situation, it's our country, this is how we live. I've lived here already for dozens of years about forty years, even more, fifty years and I went through such things. What can you do? Patience, we hope that it will be resolved quickly.

12. S. (25:25) How can we make ourselves let the Creator always be in dominance?

R. By vacating yourself all together, making your ego become zero and giving the Creator the permission to control the whole world and you, this is how you depict this situation that there is None Else Besides Him.

S. In our work in our efforts to connect, when see every time what you're lacking and you pray together with friends, you turn to the Creator, is that to let Him dominate and to direct him always to the goal?

R. Yes.

13. S. (26:20) Does None Else Besides Him have to be revealed with Good That Does Good, and in what state doesn’t have good that does good but has None Else Else Besides Him?

R. There's no such thing, it's revealed together.

S. If the Creator conceals Himself then what do I need to say about the Creator where I feel evil or see evil?

R. It means that you don't yet feel Him.

14. S. (27:10) You said that our spiritual war has to be against separating force between us, between us to the Creator and this needs to go for twenty-four hours; how do we start this war and anew if we constantly get a new emotion a new desire, a new connection and everything's new?

R. Yes, yes, and we have to also renew in the connection between us, our relation to a single Creator Who is Good and Doing Good to everyone.

15. S. (28:10) A person always needs ‘to curse the Creator and be in constant demand’, where does he get the connection between these two things, from what point can I start working?

R. By connecting with the friends in the ten, each one must have the ten, his small group, and he should constantly be directed to being together with them and from the connection between them that they build, they direct themselves to the Creator, they want that the Creator will be revealed inside of them.

16. S. (29:28) We can win, beat our instinct to want to separate and to feel that there are additional forces, the Sitra Achra?

R. We have to hold each other inside of the group, we have to keep this wrapping of the group, this is called ‘each one should help his friend’, is this clear?

17. S. (30:16) These thoughts, they're always, especially now, it seems that there are such thoughts that you need to follow and others that you don't but we check with the ones which we shouldn't?

R. In principle, yes, of course, we choose, we sort, we strengthen our thoughts at the expense of the connection between us.

S. It turns out that when we follow positive thoughts, the correct thoughts, then we need to cancel your entire path, everything you're used to believing in, and you feel that your perception is partial but instead you annul it, and you remove all of the obstacles between you and the friend?

R. Yes.

S. There has to be some additional confidence here?

R. Based on that you in the group and everyone in the group are interested in gathering together to one common, united Force, one view, one yearning towards and one goal, then it is called the group.

S. How to strengthen this confidence?

R. Between the friends, there are many articles about it by Baal HaSulam and Rabash, you need to talk between you, you need to push each other, you need to follow it, monitor it, to determine people who are, establish people who are responsible for it each and every day so that they will awaken the friends.

18. S. (33:14) If we always work according to there is None Else Besides Him then whatever becomes, if I got used to all the states what do I need to pay attention to in the work?

R. Only to the connection and that as much as possible we will have the feeling of closeness, adhesion with each other, until we will feel that all of us are in a system of connection in our heart, in our mind, in all of our emotions, and in all of our nerves, that we are truly as if in a single body.

19. S. (34:36) What does it mean to renew our relationships with the Creator?

R. That I feel myself in a new state I need to turn to the Creator once again and feel that there is None Else Besides Him. And this is how I should advance from wanting to discover that there is None Else Besides Him, I have to renew my relation with the friends once again, strengthen my connection with them, and to go forward in this way. All in all, we have three points: me, the Creator and the group, and I have to constantly try to see them together, all of us in a single desire with a single purpose, a single action, and all the time to be concerned about that.

20. S. (35:55) I understand that this whole state of wars and death, it comes from Him and this is so that we will come closer to Him, do we need to ask for Him to give us a good sensation for those who experience this from close or do we need to focus as a ten focus on the request for the correction of the Kli?

R. Focus on the request for the correction of the Kli so that we give contentment to the Creator, this should be the formula in the complete sentence to connect between us in order to give the Creator contentment by that.

21. S. (37:12) I have a question from a friend she is in desperation and needs clarification and also from the ten: I hear everything you're saying about being adhered to the ten and the Creator being in constant prayer, at the same time it feels impossible, we've been trying to do this for years and the question is how can we finally succeed in this?

R. I don't know what you think, consider as success; if even today I am directed towards the Creator, I want to connect with Him after, let's say twenty years of our efforts, and I nevertheless want to reach Him and be connected with Him, then is that success or not? In my eyes, it is a great success that I did not exit, I did not leave to those people who are outside of the inclination the Creator, that I nevertheless want to reach adhesion with Him. And this is why I can say about myself that I am nevertheless successful, in what, in that the Creator is holding me on the way to Him, that's it.

S. I would like to express our great desire from the American continent, a great deficiency, to have you close to us. I was very impressed this weekend that all the friends that gather together from the Latin Kli and all parts of America and they all yearn!

R. I hope that we will meet soon!

22. S. (40:10) What should happen that will bring us to the point where a person can actually connect everything to the Creator?

R. What needs to happen, the Creator needs to open Himself up, that a person will see that it truly has connection with the Creator. That can be only the Creator gives strength when a person does at least the smallest equivalence of form.

23. S. (40:55) About the excerpt that we read now, you said that I should depict that everything comes from the Creator, that I should also depict that on the one there is the Creator and on the other hand, there is my egoism and I should distance myself from the egoism towards the Creator. It's easier for me to distance myself from my egoism because it's a disturbance for me yet when my ego is not coming from the Creator, but then I'm finding in this egoism also comes from the Creator, what should I say that when I feel bad that the Creator feels good or?

R. Let's say that's so.

S. So I was given to depict that maybe there's a Creator, that's a bad Creator?

R. It's not the Creator, it's a quality that was created by the Creator in order to help us calibrate ourselves toward the Creator, tune ourselves towards the Good that Does Good.

24. S. (42:26) When we enter news sites to become updated about the situation, what should we look for there in order to nourish our prayers with the right deficiency?

R. I don't know, I don't go into the news sites, I don't aim myself then from all these things, what I hear a little bit is by going to the internet and reading the headlines. And according to that, that's enough for me, all the rest is already to be connected to the group, all the group, and to ask from the Creator to bring us closer towards truth.

S. And the updates you read, they don't influence you, you don't make any connection between what you read, what's happened on the outside in your inner work, your spirituality?

R. No, no, see things are changing as they should be in such times but it's not working on me because I know there has to be a soul directed toward the correct goal to connect with the rest of the souls, to connect with the Creator that stabilizes them and fulfills them, and that is our goal upon all the external conditions, that’s all.

25. S. (44:30) We learn that we have to connect between us in order to give the Creator contentment but does contentment to the Creator change the negative situation into a positive situation?

R. Of course, if we want to bestow contentment upon the Creator then we are already in the Creator with equivalence of form, that through Him He is to bring his constantly to good states. And then we, with Him, we come closer and reach a state that actually we fulfill Him and He fulfills us.

S. What changes is our perception, right?

R. Yes, of course, along the way we change our perception.

26. S. (45:38) As an obligation tool, when we feel bad, is it a sign that we move away from the Creator?

R. Yes, yes, for certain, absolutely.

27. S. (46:14) If a ten succeeds in justifying the Creator does it bring about the end of the war or some sort of a general change occurs, if it affects a fact of general change in everyone?

R. If a person justifies the Creator it is considered that she corrects herself, but when does the war end? We don't know, that is decided by the Creator alone. Such general decisions are only in His hands.

28. S. (47:24) Is spiritual fear, confidence, and gratitude, are these states that come one after the other of the same action of connection with the Creator through the ten?

R. No translation.

29. S. (47:56) I want to ask about the order of the work with the picture of reality and the excerpt that we read now, excerpt number ten, the last sentence by Baal HaSulam, is rather it's all done by the Creator. So is there working with the image of reality here in Israel on Shabbat we received a blow that has never occurred before, a terrible massacre that only from one moment to the next that we realize what happened. That's the image of reality.

R. Right.

S. Next, what should I do with it now? should I tell myself it was done by the Creator?

R. None Else Besides Him.

S. Please arrange me. What is the correct order, the sequence of relating to it? I have this terrible picture. What next?

R. The same people that want to come closer to the Creator, to open up the attitude towards Him like from the Creator to the created being from the created being to the Creator, I don't see another reason any other cause other than the Creator. That's one thing. Second, when the Creator does things that can seem to us as horrific and He does that, there is none else besides Him, but a person should say that it all comes from the Creator and it's all for good. That's all.

S. This last sentence says that the Creator does everything and it is all good, for the better.

R. Yes, also that is for the better, for the good, that's why when we receive a blow we need to identify that the blow comes to us because we didn't prepare ourselves for the degree of this blow and that is why we feel it, on the one hand, and on the other hand we need to reach a state that we are willing to thank the Creator for everything He did, even through the worst possible things that it all came for our benefit. And our goal our purpose in each every strike is to rise above this blow towards the same hand that is giving these blows.

S. What does it mean to rise to this hand that strikes us?

R. To kiss the hand, just as if as you would if you received only goodness from it so you need to be grateful for the bad as for the good

S. Why?

R. Because it only seems to you as bad but really it is good. When you feel bad because there isn't equivalence of form between the Creator and part of your qualities.

30. S. (51:55) To continue the friend’s question, if you feel that it comes from him it's possible that it's felt but it's not clear why in such a way.

R. No we can't feel the Creator while we receive blows. That is the contradiction between what the Creator does and what a person feels and then a person is distant from the Creator but still we need to determine that the worst possible things they also come from the Creator and they only go through our uncorrected qualities and that is why they seem so bad.

S. But this means that it's impossible to ascend before the good is revealed, we can't rise to the next degree it has to be revealed as Good.

R. Yes, and we need to try even when you're in a state when you feel bad we can nevertheless feel that we're receiving it from the Creator, and that is why it's Good.

S. I for example feel, you said once about what's happening in the Ukraine, not them, not the reward. I had a problem advancing in such a way, it's difficult for me to accept such an advancement where we or I need to advance and the Creator is showing me such things. Why should I advance with such a calculation, in such a way? What to do with this feeling?

R. You have it corrected your vessel, that's why you feel that way.

S. If I now have to accept that it comes from him, if let's say I see my group, my ten, the whole group making every possible effort and I can actually ascribe the change in the work that it's really felt and a few vessels of the whole world what we comes and appears to be smaller and everyone is really in the same feeling, the same thought, that it's closer so that I see that it is our work. Why is the next degree always revealed in a way that is so bad? Is it possible for it to be different? Does it have to be this way and not the other way?

R. It can't be the other way. The next degree is always with a larger ego. You raise yourself on the mountain, as much as you are closer and closer to the peak you will feel more and more how the disturbances are more and more severe. You will need to justify and as Rabash said “To kiss the stick”.

S. To kiss the stick, or the belt?

R. Yes, kiss the stick or the belt. You have to know from all these states that is correction

S. If it happens to me and I feel it I understand it, but the bad that I feel is not personally mine, it's not within my personal will to receive that I feel it, but I see other people I see a world that is suffering troubles and in pain, it's not about me seemingly, it's not really about me.

R. It's on you if you feel it.

S. This identification with the general pain with the general suffering it's endless, there's endless pains and it never ends this thing so from one degree to the next it will grow and the manifestation of the appearance of these pains?

R. Right.

S. Should we expect in this world that it will appear nicer before the end of correction, but rather it always becomes worse and worse?

R. We see that it's worse. I don't think that these blows that we feel now are in fact worse than blows we have seen in the past, but only we are expecting it this way, we are becoming more sensitive, more demanding. In truth the blows themselves can be very, very small even, and if you would compare between them and what you've gone through in the past there's nothing to compare.

S. I can agree with this very much Rav but first of all the general feeling of the people is what determines the magnitude of the event.

R. We see that even now even the world doesn't even want to get a little blow. How immediately we will jump up, what can you do? We accordingly need to develop a system of explanation also for ourselves that everything that we feel is in order to bring ourselves towards correction.

S. I can understand that from the perspective of everything that happened so far in history that there was no Bnei Baruch and what we are doing now did not exist. Should we expect a change for the better? In the whole cascading of these external events by the very fact that we exist in this reality if the Creators brought us to the state and we’re doing work now maybe for the first time in thousands of years, should we expect to change for the better also in the externality?

R. I don't think so. I think we are still in a state that if externality will be good we will continue wanting to reach adhesion with the Creator in the same way as without some blows. We need these blows, no doubt.

S. Rav, I feel how much truly we are advancing out of it, but I can go back to my first point, I’m just sharing that it hurts me that the Creator has to advance us in such a way and not in a good way. It's not clear if there was another way to move this will to receive forward without this addition and then it would be very difficult to wake up. I see friends who get very much into the work and they devote themselves very much but does it have to be this way?

R. Now needs to be the time that we need to explain mainly on the internet in all languages how we need to respond to what's happening in our world and in our time between us. That everyone will come closer to this opinion and by that we will mitigate the situation.

31. S. (01:00:22) Which view would you like the world to get closer to?

R. That we, through the connection between us, can influence the upper force, that it will aim us more precisely toward correction.

S. This is something which is very advanced it requires…?

R. No, no, not just the sentence that I just said. In short an explanation, if people cannot comprehend it, then accept it as some kind of mantra this is how it works.

S. Except it as a mantra?

R. This means that if they try and think that way or talk it will influence for the better.

S. This means that connection between the hearts is what changes our fate in the way that nature works on us?

R. Yes.

32. S. (01:01:41) My question is this Rav, the Creator works in both directions, good and bad. In one hand I take it into account the first of all we have to take care of ourselves, of our life, and all the rest we have to exterminate, meaning the opposite, the evil inclination, we have to exterminate it in order to rise to the good and mercy and in this way to build the optimal state. The question is, this war inside of a person will he balance these two forces all the time that he is in the lessons with such support from the Creator, we are in the Garden of Eden, in Paradise. When we leave the lesson this mercy seemingly stops, it’s only momentary. How do we pull it to be with us the whole day? How do we hold on to all the tens, to Rav and the whole world Kli, in such a way we give ourselves the opportunity to feel the Creator each and every moment?

R.Only through the connection between us this the mutual force of our connections needs to bring us closer to the Creator and by that we are connected.

33. S. (01:03:54) I hear you saying that we need these blows. Can you explain to me why?

R. Because the less blows, you don't feel.

S. Just like that, what are the rudimentary reasons for the blows? At least I feel seemingly we went back to the days of the Holocaust?

R. I do not like your stories. Do something instead of talking.

S. You say that I should do something, what should I do? They found a thousand people died they found…

R. I do not want to hear. You need to do something in order for this to not happen. Instead of asking why do I need, and why do I need, exactly and why this. I don't want to talk to you. It is as simple as that, we need to do inside of yourself, you need to demand corrections from the Creator, that you want to be better. Connect to the friends to such an extent to be in one heart and you will be able to influence the world so that the world will advance in a good direction. Possibly even to the sensation of the next world and not to weep and bring all your problems, all your complaints. Why isn't it like this? Why isn't like that? It will never be like that.

34. S. (01:06:16) Do we need to ask the war to end or not to ask for it?

R. Whether war will end or not depends not on us but on the Creator. Not with Bnei Baruch or whatever or whoever is there. It depends only on the Creator and the Creator will stop the war or not stop the war, it depends to what extent we do the actions that when the war is upon us the directions we will do. The Creator intends that by feeling this threat, this fear, this pain and so on, that through all of these negative emotions we will want to be more connected and closer to one another. If we will do that, good. If we won't do that, then we will need to get more blows. That is all. Blows can be from the smallest possible thing that a person does not succeed in according to his understanding in life until the very high levels of suffering God forbid. Just like he writes, and after they become witnesses in our time. Att the end of the Introduction of the Book of Zohar. We need only to unite. Period. That is why I asked everyone who can to write responsibly on all the internet lines how we accept our job, and our role during the war.

35. S. (01:08:54) You said before that the ten can bring the world to the feeling of the next world. How can a the ten do that?

R. Through the connection between its members.

S. Through dissemination or...?

R. Through connection between them.

36. S. (01:09:30) Please tell us, what should be our actions in order to feel the depth of the connection in the ten?

R. Actions of connection are what brings us to the feeling of connection, to the feeling of the size and depth of this connection, and so on. We do not need anything else other than connection between us.

S. How is it manifested? This depth of connection between us?

R. That I cannot explain. When you feel a connection with someone you can somehow sense a measure that connection is like holding on to you in your hands. It should be such.

37. S. (01:10:51) The intensity of the blows that we receive and the number of the blows that we receive are they directly related to the gap that we were not able to reach equivalence of form?

S, The intensity of the blows that we get, and the number of the blows that we get, are directly proportional to the gap where we are not able to reach equivalence of form or coming closer between us.

R. There is of course a connection between this and that, but we do not know how to measure it.

S. What depends on our ability to kiss the stick?

R. To the extent that I'm connected to the results of the blows, and I agree to receive all the blows to reach the result. The stick for me it becomes something that brings me life.

S. Isn't some time required, a gap of time between the ability to kiss the stick and when you get the blow first?

R. Yes, possibly it depends when and for whom. Today we are coming closer relatively quickly to connection and recognizing the states and evil. I see good results from the blows that we are experiencing. I hope that it will influence good and quickly and that we will all become wiser from this.

38. S. (01:13:07) We had a strong action of connection in a congress. we heard that we have to go through the states because these are the states of the next degree, so the question comes up: what is the difference between the path of in its time and the hastening for us?

R. The difference is with a person to the extent that he identifies with the actions of the Creator that they all bring him only towards goodness. That is the difference between in its due time and the accelerated.

S. Is there a chance that we are advancing in the true form of hastening and we will feel that the path is all beautiful and that it comes from the Creator?

R. That depends to the extent that you are connected with the friends and you are together receive these blows as a gift from the Creator.

39. S. (01:14:21) We learned once that we do not know what spiritual pleasure is, and what we are enjoying now is only the gap between the pleasure and suffering. So it turns out that in order to feel the pleasure it is only an attempt to run away from pain?

R. I want to talk to you about it, we have to run from suffering in order not to feel pleasure, that it's not our method. We are not monks or anything like that, we just need to do what brings us closer to the Creator.

S. My question comes from that creation cannot be without pleasure in it and the creation happens at every moment and we just have to join it with what is in our forces.

R. We will live and we will see. Wait and see.

40. S. (01:15:53) I heard you say that we need responsibility to disseminate the message of connection online, and I saw in the response that people are very careful that they were not be separation or a bad things on one another. I wanted to ask of you because most of our lesson is in the language that they cannot listen to maybe if you had many a few moments to tell everyone some message, what would you tell them?

R. The message is simple. We wrote it in many, many pages on the internet and printed it. That we have nothing else to help each other with other than to set an example, each one to his friend that we are prepared to love one another.

41. S. (01:17:07) How do we reach a state that the Creator is controlling our thoughts and feelings even in the biggest descent not to come out of his authority?

R. The Creator will help us with that if we want to be in that state, and we will always feel Him close.

S. What are we lacking in order to agree with the Creator. How do we understand that it is all for the good when we watch the news? There are things that it's hard to agree with, so what are we lacking?

R. We are lacking to love one another.

42. S. (01:18:10) The connection of the Congress felt very strong, stronger than ever before, but I have you say that we did not prepare ourselves for the degree of this blow. How can we have done that? How can we do this in the future? How can we prepare ourselves for the degree of a blow like this?

R. We cannot yet, to such an extent, prepare ourselves in order to cover such blows that come to us such as this war, but it will happen, and soon.

43. S. (01:19:20) We had to state when there was a convention and then the Corona started. We started studying virtually, there was no virtual physical congress and the next congress this war was breaking out and again we have to be virtual. At the convention it was felt, the physical group in the congresses in the physical group and the broader was less in contact and there were lessons on how the nation of Israel does not pass the light beyond the borders of this vessel. Does it maybe have to do with that we have to pass the light now?

R. Go ahead you're doing it I'm not saying anything. We learn and then it becomes your matter.

S. Like now somehow to expand to the broader more external vessel?

R. Talk about it among yourselves and start acting in it. For the time being you are always looking at me or waiting for me to give you advice. I don't have any advice. I give you everything. From here it is your work. Do it, and you will be rewarded with a different attitude for the Creator. If not, then you will remain as you are.

S. What is the right way to advance? It is hard to do it in the narrow vessel and in the broader vessel it remains easier to advance but we are speaking about a narrow advancement let's say in the Ten?

R. That is in order not to scatter in all directions.

44. S. (01:21:35) How to tell the shocked nation of Israel that everything is for the good?

R. Very very gently. It really is, we need to build the order of explanation in such a way over a page or two but that it will be really in a logical way, good, connected that each person in a nation will be able to agree.

S. What would you start with?

R. We need to think about it but it has to be left heart touching.

S. Feel people bad and somehow we need to convince them with a lot of consideration that it is good, that it is for their benefit what is happening

R. On the connection on the condition that we will correctly use the state.

S. How do you use this state? This difficult state correctly?

R. Only if we will know how to connect between us.

S. When you have a short time to explain, you can put a lot of words down but in the end people want short messages. What can the Kabbalah stay say about the state?

R. That if you connect to a Ten and you want to connect to the Ten, the upper force then you succeed in a way that the upper force influences the Ten and theTen can then rise to the upper force.

S. They are not exactly intense. Even our friends studying for years are finding it hard to spread this message and justify the state even running to physical actions, so I'm trying to think how to turn to a whole nation and how do you explain what is important in such times?

R. In such tough times only to explain that it's all for the better. The Creator only makes orders and commands to drive our progress.

S. Do we have to tell the nation that they're guilty that they brought this upon themselves?

R. It is certain that as we did things in the way that is incomplete now in order to complete that we are suffering blows.

S. What did we do in a complete way?

R. The connection between is why are you asking. lIsten to what you are asking? You keep asking, asking, and asking about the same thing. As if you are not hearing that only connection is needed

S. What will bring hope to the people of Israel?

R. Our hope is the Creator that the fact that we are governed by Him and the hope is that He will not let us go, that He will not leave us whether it is in a good way or something less than good but He will accompany us till the final correction, which is the connection between all of us and Him.

45. S.(01:26:14) Is it okay to share what Bnei Baruch writes on social media platforms or do we have to compose a message in our own words?

R. You can do it yourself but if you do it in the name of the organization then you should send it here so we can check what you are disseminating.

46. S. (01:27:14) How do we reach an equivalence between our actions and the upper ones intention to what we feel towards the lower ones?

R. After the friends open their eyes they will feel the essence of all these definitions.

S. Then it will all connect the perception to None Else Besides Him?

R. Yes.

47. S. (01:27:56) If I want to explain to the public that everything depends on our connection to the Creator, how can I explain what the Creator is with other words of the wisdom of Kabbalah without saying Creator, which sounds very religious to people and rejects them. What is Creator in the language of connection

R. The Creator is nature that created us and all of reality and the inner driving force of nature continues to work in all of reality that it created in order to bring that nature to more developed states.

S. What is a more developed state? There is a feeling of connection in the nation, everybody's sure that we are connected now?

R. This, I don't know. What they think, does not mean anything. connected how?. if just a week ago you had such protests where one half wants to kill the other half.

S. Yes, but it flipped over, now everyone is coming out then giving over themselves, donating, half a million people were drafted to the army. This is what people know how to explain as a connection. As everyone gives what they can for the nation. Nobody is thinking of the Creator.

R. Everyone is thinking about himself and that is why they are willing to recruit themselves to others in order to benefit themselves. I understand this is also good but I do not see that it truly leads to connection, to unity to something. At least everyone understands that his own well-being depends on the collective well-being of the people and the whole nation that is also good.

S. What are we lacking for the right beneficial spiritual connection?

R. For the correct connection, what is missing is the goal. The higher upper goal because here it is like in the time where there's a fire in the forest where all the animals escape the forest and no one attacks the other because they have no interest in that for now because they all have to escape?

S. From what you are saying as long as the nation doesn't feel that their current connection, what they see as connection, as long as they don't feel that they have a purpose, in that, they feel a need to be adhered to the Creator so the blows won't stop coming?

R. I'm not talking about the decision with the Creator, I'm not saying these words right now. I'm saying that until the people understand that they have to change so as to be connected to each other then these blows will continue the Creator is not in the picture at all.

48. S. (01:32:29) You said the intensity of the blow doesn't depend on its size but on a person's sensitivity. The question is, in the news we hear, can I read the headlines and read a certain influence or I can read this deeper and see maybe more things. So my demand for connection will be stronger or I can ignore it all. I cannot read the news. I can only focus on working in a Ten and that is a completely different sensitivity so that depends on me. Accordingly, I can change my sensitivity so what is the right balance? How much should I go deep into all of these things?

R. Delve into it to the extent that you can aim yourselves by that precisely towards the purpose of creation. Which is to connect all of humanity and humanity to a single whole.

S. Is it right okay to say that as long as a person can sink into the news and go deep into them as much as he can use it as a connection with the Ten, If it is worthwhile and if it is just conquerors and then he falls into the corporal perception of reality so it is worthless can you say that?

R. In the meantime you can say that.

49. S. (01:34:35) I am still trying to understand. In our dissemination. What should the people of Israel feel is the right connection because there is endless volunteering, hundreds of Israelis are coming back to Israel to join the war and you said no, it is all egoistic. On the other hand, we don't need to have to speak about the feelings of the Creator, so what are we expecting from them?

R. We have to explain to each and every one as much as possible in the correct way through easy absorption that are entire work is to be connected between us by that we get closer to the Creator and He influences us with his force and then everything falls into place.

S. Explanation has to include the Creator?

R. Well it's a problem, where do you stop and then where does the reader stop with you? It is as if something is missing in the explanation without the upper force you cannot explain the entire system. Do you understand that's a problem?

S. The upper force sounds religious to me. What if I don't use it?

R. So not upper force, use it in some other way, give it some introduction and call it nature.

S. You're saying that this is the degree that we have to reach otherwise if we talk about connection in good deeds that are doing volunteering is not enough solidarity isn't enough.

R. No, solidarity is not enough, solidarity has no power, where do you see power in solidarity?

S. Where is our force?

R. Only in the Creator.

S. What should the people have to feel? What is the degree that people have to understand that there is a force and beyond that it's not enough?

R. When they all connect as one heart.

S. What does it mean to a regular person in Israel?

R. That each one feels himself that he is truly connected to the heart of the other and thus all the hearts are connected together so as to reveal the one force that is in them.

S. Lately, we felt a lot of separation between secular and religious. For example, there was a huge gap, a lot of complaints. Now we saw that the religious people that don't serve in the army, went to the road and gave gifts to the soldiers that is their way to participate. So should a secular person feel that he feels the orthodox now?

R. I do not think that we need to engage in that and explain that and break all those partitions right now among the nation between this kind of religious people and that of secular people and that's kind, but more in general

S. I understand we don't want to awaken these little devils but what does it mean I feel the other's heart?

R. As much as you can.

50. S. (01:39:09) It's felt in the nation that they're taking our message that we have to unite. It depends on us, it is always in times of stress like this. Maybe it's right, to tell the story, to say here we can and if we continue this in the times of peace and the wars wouldn't be and the upper force will help us, is the right to go in that direction?

R. Try.

51. S. (01:39:49) We were speaking between us the friends, we came to a conclusion that the Creator is encouraging us to come closer and connect and we have to disseminate it. How can the person get support from the Creator for his efforts in his dissemination? How can he disseminate it in a more effective way?

R. That's not from the Creator, that's from the society, the environment, the group, the Ten. But from the Creator directly, that is already a different degree that we will have to reach. That's it. From the Creator, we will reach it in such a way that the Creator will open up the heavens to us and we will see the system and it's entire richness and depth and character and by that we will get closer to the Creator and understand how we can explain the secrets of connection.

52. S. (01:41:51) When in reason we discover the lack of equivalences of form so our method advises us to go above reason, how can faith complete the lack of equivalence of form.

R. Faith does not complete the absence of inclusive form but it helps to get closer despite having disparity of form. There is a gap between the qualities of the Creator and the person in the meantime. Later on the qualities equalize to some extent and then the person begins to feel the Creator more. That is how he moves from one degree to the next.

53. S. (01:43:06) If the point of starting, as a student in Bnei Baruch, we can't get the illusion of this world, what is reality or the picture that I have to see?

R. The picture of reality the one had to see is according to his quality how close he is to the Creator. That it will push him to shorten the distance.

54. S. (01:44:46) If we separate between the private work and the work in the group, so on the individual I see the evil in me and on the level of the group, I see the lack of connection between us, can we say it's the same?

R. No, you cannot say it's the same thing. That's one and two, it's not a reason for the scrutiny you have to do everything so these qualities will disappear within you practically. I cannot tell you that.

55. S. (01:45:46) How to overcome the times when we get blows and that we know it comes from the Creator? To what level should faith above reason help us in times of uncertainty?

R. To what level?

S. How does faith above reason help us at times of uncertainty?

R. In all of the moments and to what extent, all of the way, until the Creator replaces it with upper reason.

56. S. (01:47:00) In a corrected state, when all the people in Israel except for imagining the Creator is flowing between us in a very high state of unity, could we see that even in our enemies in a high exalted state, would there be ways to live in a better way even with our enemies?

R. Yes.

57. S. (01:48:04) Did the war break out because in the convention we were only succeeding in getting close to connection but didn't really connect or we connected so strongly that it affected the world and created this state to connect between us even more as a gift from the Creator?

R. What a dumb question. That by us getting closer to the Creator we go into troubles. I'm going to write it under your account.

S. The first part of the question?

R. The same.

58. S. (01:48:56) I heard from you in the past more than once that the Creator doesn't have calculations with the physical bodies. He doesn't care if they're suffering from pains and blows and only He only calculates with the soul, the eternal soul, but still we're not corrected, and even we that are studying for years the wisdom of Kabbalah we get the blows on our flesh. It's hard for us even for us as BB students it's hard for us to justify the Creator. So what can you recommend to strengthen us, all the friends that are suffering now about that?

R. How many years have you been studying with me?

S. I’m studying almost twenty three years.

R. You still haven't learned how you can strengthen yourself by the friends?

S. I'm asking not about me now but in my group there are friends that are suffering and it's hard for them to justify this state so I'm asking about the others.

R. Explain to them if you've learned something and the last twenty three years.

59. S. (01:50:59) If I heard correctly, in blows a person cannot be in happiness and thank the Creator, is that right? In the part from Shamati it's written that even in the worst state of man that he will not leave the authority of the Creator so how not to?

R. Impossible, how impossible if one feels that he is under the control of the Creator then he has to put more efforts to feel that he doesn’t leave that control.

60. S. (01:52:00) I hear that gradually we will be able to do something, to come close to one another, and it's annoying because we don't want to look at the timeline so what should we do in order for it to happen in the same moment?

R. In the same moment you have to focus on wanting to get closer to the friends in the ten.

61. S. (01:52:48) As Baal HaSulam says that I'm happy that these states are revealed, how do I reach such an inner process?

R. I didn't understand what you said.

S. How to agree with the wicked that is being revealed?

R. The wicked ones, the evil has to be revealed. To begin with the Creator said, I created the evil inclination and I created for it the Torah as a spice. The Torah is the upper light that corrects the evil inclination, that transforms it to good, therefore we have to always try to make actions toward the good inclination, connection, mutual bestowal, yearning towards the Creator, to resemble the Creator, and see how incapable we are and ask the Creator to make it so, make this action for us of getting closer to the Creator, right? And this way each time we walk and fall and walk and fall, just like little kids or toddlers that learn how to walk, that's it. And that's how we will advance, and you will see that soon we will complete this sort of box, it's called the quota of the effort, the labor, and the Creator will open to us the upper world and all of our opportunities to go forward and move towards Him. With this I and concluding my part in the lesson.

Social Time:

Workshop: What are the main points that we heard in the lesson?
