Rabash 44. Ruin by Elders—Construction; Construction by Youths—Ruin
1. Rav’s Introduction: It's a short article but it's very much to the point. It's a very important point precisely that the ruin by the elders, meaning those who are already in the work, and they understand and feel a little bit so when they are in contradiction to the Creator, to the work, contradiction between them and everything that seems to them that they are in some kind of a contradiction even among themselves this is called construction out of that they build. They build states, degrees, steps forward, towards the goal. It cannot be done without contradictions or ruin, so they contradict, and they ruin, and they build, and they contradict, ruin and they build. Youths meaning those that are just beginning the work, they don't understand it, they do not feel it, They do not yet have the understanding and the feeling internally of how we should go forward from one day to the next. They don't yet have the experience that they have to hold themselves above the feeling, above where they are right now but rather that the path is a path that has to be continued regardless. Those that are not yet in that are called youths and if they build even if it seems to them that they are building something it would always end up being incorrect. However, out of this experience that they build and ruin, build and ruin. The fact that they do not succeed because they are in the beginning of their work is how the path is and also from that they advance, and they become built. We need to see ourselves always this way and not to be certain that we are ready for elders. An elder means one who has acquired the wisdom, wisdom who has the wisdom Hochma in his work he has experience but rather they should always be as new in your eyes, and you should feel yourself actually as a youth. Perhaps you are in the state where you contradict yourself and you need to again, again, to come back and to build in a way which is not what you were thinking. Maybe what you are thinking is actually a contradiction or a ruin and not building but out of these states the most important is that we go through them as quickly as possible and together. Then we advance. There is nothing we can do about it. We cannot get from above some part or even a complete structure of Kedusha, of sanctity. We cannot get from above an emotion and an intellect unless we need these things, and if we don't feel a deficiency for it but if we try and we fall and we want to build something to reach something and we are not able to then out of these efforts and lack of success bit by bit the correct foundations are built in us so that we do get from above the future forms, the correct ones. We cloth in them, we enter them, and this is how we advance until the end of correction. Therefore, let's read the article and see what he writes. The ruin or contradiction by elders is a construction and by construction by youths is the ruin or contradiction.
Rav Reads: Ruin by Elders—Construction; Construction by Youths—Ruin Elders are those who are accustomed to the work of the Creator. Which means they know how to rise above whatever they feel ,above what they understand, because they are going forward in the work, on the path. On the path it is always degrees of a descent. Each time the next degree or the next step is above reason. That what I had yesterday no longer works today. I have to climb above what I had yesterday with faith. Meaning above my present mind and my emotion. I should not take that into account and only take into account but only to be in adhesion, with the society, the group, and the Creator. Youths are those who are in the beginning of their work. “Ruin” means a descent or a fall, where previously they had some ascent in the work, which is regarded as building, meaning that they appreciated the ascent, but the ruin is when they felt some fall, which comes from the concealment of the Creator, that the Creator hides Himself from them. Meaning that the Creator hides himself from them. This is called ruin.
It means that building is when they try to connect to grow stronger between them and to discover the Creator who exists with greatest strength among them. What does it mean that he the Creator exists with greater intensity and with some power between them? The Creator is the force of bestowal. Meaning the moment that they want to be in a certain force of bestowal between them they discover a state where the Creator seemingly clothes in them. This is called an ascent, but the ruin is when they felt some fall, which comes from the concealment of the Creator, meaning the Creator hides himself from them. This is called the ruin Which means that we in their relations between us need to constantly see how much we're building. meaning connecting between us and building a place for the Creator to be revealed in the connection among us to each other. We want to be connected. We want to feel how much we have between us a network of connection and the Creator is invited into that and as much as the Creator can truly according to his force of with bestowal can clothes in us. Even to the smallest degree, 1% this is already considered that we have a connection between us, and the Creator can clothe according to the law of equivalence of form between the relations between us and his nature. So he continues. Well maybe we can go deeper in.
2. S. (09:13) I do not understand the two kinds of work that we have to have on our part, the youth and the other?
R. This is how a person relates to the state that he is in. It could be a state of elders, or it could be a state of youth, young people. We need to see what state we are in.
S. As I understand we are in both states, to nevertheless, change between them.
R. No, we need to be as much as possible in the form of youth, youngsters. We will talk more about that and in relation to our state, we need to be in the state of elders. We will talk more about it. We have not finished it yet.
3. Rav continues to read: “Ruin by Elders” means that they say that the Creator sent them the concealment. It follows that they are already building, since they believe that the Creator is tending to them, and from this they derive vitality. Reading again: “Ruin by Elders” means that they say that the Creator sent them the concealment. That they don't understand, they don't feel. They are not quite drawn to the connection between them and to the Creator and in general to this whole engagement in the wisdom of Kabbalah. it follows that they are already building, since they believe that the Creator is tending to them, and from this they derive vitality.
Which means that the Creator who sent them the concealment if they feel that it is the Creator who is sending them the concealment. They believe that the Creator who concealed them is not in concealment and ruin. They are destroying their building that they wanted to build. They are actually in advancement. That they say it is the Creator who sent them the concealment. They accept this concealment that it comes from the Creator as a part of the path. They believe, as it says here, that the Creator is tending to them and from this they derive vitality.
Certainly this state is not revealed, it is not the revelation of the Creator, it is not coming closer to the Creator, but if they grow stronger and believe that even during the concealment it is actually the Creator tending to them, that is the creator is taking care of them, advancing them. Who is with him, that there is None Else Besides Him? Of course He is related to everything they feel and go through if they hold themselves in a state where in the feeling there's nothing. none of the presence of the Creator in the world. They cannot find him in spite of all of their efforts then in such a way they nevertheless grow stronger and say this is the care, and the care is by the Creator, and He sent us the concealment so from that they are already in building.
This is what it says here. “Ruin by elders” means that they say that the Creator sent them the concealment. It follows that they are already building. Specifically during the concealment, they say that they are holding onto the Creator and they're not afraid of him and everything that they feel even though these are states that are very much unpleasant and confused but it comes from Him. So it turns out that they are actually building. This is why they say that they are ruined by the elders by construction, building. Since they believe that the creator is tending to them, and they derive vitality.
I would even say the opposite of the ordinary or what the people usually think. The fact that we are in the group feel that there is a descent, seemingly there's no awakening, upliftment and the Creator seemingly has disappeared, it is felt as though he's further away from our feeling, we must together connect and awaken Him in the invited to appear in us, as much as possible in our feelings are crying out, whatever possible. Then it is considered that we are building, even though the Creator is hiding. Specifically in the states we are worthy of inviting Him more and more because the fact that He is hidden, He is hidden from our will to receive. The fact that we are in darkness, He does not exist in our feelings. but we want to come closer to Him and to work together even though He does not in our sensation. This is considered that we build Him, and He already does for us the work of restriction but not appearing and we just need to do the work of connection.
Next. Faith is apparent primarily during the descent, meaning specifically when the Creator disappears. Meaning when it does not shine for a person. At that time, he faces a dilemma: Either he says, “I do not need any benefit. Rather, I want to bring contentment above and I do not care what I feel, or god forbid it is otherwise. There are many questions here and answers. They say a lot, but the most important thing is what we thought here. He says here the first part of it that here 'faith is apparent primarily during this descent, when he does not shine for a person. At that time he faces a dilemma, either he says to go forward or to think and let's go and wait and so on. Here a person has to come closer to the friends and together with them two make an action of connection in order to come closer to the Creator even more by their own forces and to show the Creator that they're willing for his revelation, ready for revelation. Well there are many more things here. It doesn't even say when or how. Let's continue.
4. S. (18:18) It is not clear what are the life stages of the Kabbalists or are these states where you replace one another or states of the of the ten?
R. Both and both and both but we need to see these states that this is how each and every one goes through them and eventually the ten goes through the states.
5. S. (18:50) The Youth thinks that the soul, the Sefirot and that there he will reach correction and construction whereas the elder the experienced one, relates to the components the combinations of yes and no and this is how reality is built?
R. I do not hear him well, can you repeat? I understand you are in some place where you cannot speak loudly.
S. I’m saying that the youth, the novices, they think they solve their contradictions and they come to wholeness and that’s how they build the building but the more experienced one understands that reality is just a set of combinations of existence and absence, and that’s how reality is built. Is that what he’s trying to tell us?
R. Yes, yes.
6. S. (19:56) The contradiction is always in the connection between us or also when I lose the ability to say there is None Else Besides Him, that’s also a contradiction, what is contradiction?
R. Nice you asked nicely both, but the most important is the contradiction or ruin is in order for us to discover how much we need to attach ourselves even more because this is really the whole matter of building we do not need to be ourself we need to build a connection between us from the bits from the shattering of Adam HaRishon this will always be before eyes, the Tower of Babel let’s say which was demolished and this is what we need to build when there were all the nations of the world everyone was connected together in this beautiful tower then it was demolished, why was it destroyed, because what was lacking is the natural participation among those who built it everyone built it all the nations of the world who were in the Tower of Babel, Babylon and why was it destroyed the Tower of Babel is a seemingly the structure of Adam HaRishon so what do we have to do only to add to it our internal participation our internal connection which was missing.
7. S. (21:52) When the Creator disappears and does not shine, is it relative to a person or is it a ten or more correctly how can I measure the Creator's presence in the ten?
R. Outside the ten can you measure Him we can’t do anything there but only the degree of connection between us in the ten is actually the correct measurement of how much we are connected to the Creator the Creator himself you cannot measure Him; He is whole and in something that is whole you cannot measure anything.
S. When a person feels that he has no connection the Creator disappears nothing shines to him, he feels in darkness personally, does that say something about the ten or about him alone?
R. It testifies to the fact that there is no ten.
S. It’s me relative to the ten but where is the Creator of the ten?
R. This is not quite clear to me well let's say that I can’t really say maybe you should ask more.
S. If I feel darkness I feel it. What does it say about the ten? How can I say that this is the state of the ten, how can I measure the state of the ten, I can see about my own personal state?
R. This is true, and this is how it always will be.
S. What does it mean, what is the Creator in the ten?
R. The Creator the ten is that we discover we build the mutual force of attraction between us in which we become incorporated and this is our Creator, this is our Creator, but rather what were you thinking that someone comes to you and he welcomes you to his to enter his house what does it mean the Creator the Creator is what you build there is no Creator without the created being to the extent that you build the connection between you to that extent you discover Him and before that before that He does not exist because you didn’t build Him, you have made Me.
S. What is this construction that he speaks of?
R. The construction the building it’s the ten it’s the structure of sanctity the force of bestowal that becomes revealed in the will to receive so that this will to receive when it is connected with others preferably a ten let’s say then this will to receive that He is revealed between them in order to bestow to one another to each other so this will to bestow in the ten it becomes whole and it is called the Creator.
S. Relative to the construction, what is the youth in the other, the construction of the ten?
R. The other is considered one who is already on the path, and he feels it he understands it he has experience as it says here elders are those who are accustomed to the work of the Creator.
8. S. (25:47) During the concealment of the Creator how will we feel and hold on to our service to the Creator?
R. Specifically when the Creator is concealed He gives us an opportunity for us to connect and build Him and to the extent that we truly try and succeed in building the image of the Bestower between us then in the image of the Bestower that we successfully built between us in the relations between us the Creator is revealed.
9. S. (26:52) When the Creator is concealed we manage to maintain these actions like coming to the lesson and other day to day actions, but nevertheless the Creator is still concealed we're not ascribing things to the Creator. Is something being built, or do we need something minimal?
R. Please repeat it again.
S. When we do succeed and for us the Creator's concealed but nevertheless we manage to maintain daily actions like the morning lesson and the Zoom calls, do we need to have a minimal feeling to have something built or is it enough to continue?
R. We continue as much as we can it’s not that it is enough there is no enough we constantly have to awaken each other all of us that there is no enough until the Creator is revealed between us and in a way that is alive that we feel Him in all of our desires in all of our thoughts that He fills up everything we are the building, the structure that He needs to fill up in the connection between us if we come together if we connect then all of our emotions and our thoughts should be filled by the force of bestowal the force of love the force of connection which is the Creator.
S. Is this the feeling of livelihood of which he is speaking?
R. Yes, why does this evoke a question in you?
S. Because I'm looking for, I feel that as if I’m outside of the action, I need to give something so it will remain only an act, an action, but I will have a feeling that you are building, constructing.
R. But you are building please go ahead and build it, build a connection between you and the friends so that there the force of bestowal will dwell completely. This is called that you have built the temple.
S. What do I need to ask for other than working externally with my hands and feet. What do I need to ask for?
R. It is not about the hands and legs you need to build the connection between you and the friends not with your hands not with your legs but rather that there will be such a connection that it will be a connection of bestowal pure bestowal complete bestowal and then in this connection you will discover the Creator gradually through 125 degrees NRNHY of NRNHY and this it will be clear to you that you have built this tower this temple this structure which is called the temple or the house of sanctity literally the temple clearly it’s great it’s 125 degrees and it's a house of sanctity, what does it mean of sanctity that the love between all the different parts which built which took part in this construction it will be revealed to everyone and this will be NRNHY of NRNHY so that all in all it will give us the complete revelation of the Creator to his created beings so that the created beings all of us will be as one man in one heart as Adam HaRishon and the Creator will be revealed in them in His full power of NRNHY of NRNHY.
S. You just described a very exalted state. Is that ok that we feel it so distant?
R. We feel it far away but at least it is clear to us in which direction we need to move it’s clear to us that this is what we have to advance towards that this is what we have ahead of us that there is no place to deviate to or something else to do but only that only the connection between us in which the Creator is revealed that we build Him we build Him as a vessel as our desires so that in these desires according to how much they’re ready in the connection not the desire in each and every one that is not intended for anything but rather if we connect our desires above reason meaning above the force of rejection then inside our desires in the connection between our desires we discover the force of bestowal which was concealed that created and maintains sustains the whole of reality this which called the Creator.
10. S. (32:42) I would like to scrutinize how we build this together. Right now it is clear the Creator is activating us in different ways and that force of participation from each friend is different. What is the necessary minimum for us to build this ship together, this building, or is it enough that I don’t want to interfere and that’s enough? For each one here has to be involved?
R. We have to be responsible for each one of us over everyone over the ten so that the ten will not become dispersed, that it will connect that it will be more, how should I put it, that it will be more tight together and that in this way we will advance. I don’t quite understand the question each one has to be concerned for the ten that it would be connected as a cohesive as united as possible thinking about its unity as much as possible in order to make room for the Creator to be revealed and to enjoy it.
S. We are seemingly in it already, that's why I wanted to have certain tools with which to have a more precise criticism of this process.
R. You’re right so discuss it and decide there's nothing external that is hindering you only you yourselves.
11. S. (34:56) Today we have two friends in the ten who have problems to connect. They have health problems; how can we take this state, grow stronger in faith, and reach a new degree of connection?
R. Use the fact that they are sick or that there are other problems in the ten there are always all kinds of problems and there also problems in the entire world and so think that by the connection between you upon the individual and collective problems you are correcting the world to a state where it will be more united more connected united as one and then in this connection the Creator will enter and It will enjoy us, the end of all of our actions of all of our efforts is that we by this build a place for the revelation of the Creator so that He will enjoy from us.
12. S. (36:17) If we are the ones who create or construct the Creator, when we see concealment it is also us who create the concealment?
R. So what is the question?
S. If we create the concealment.
R. Of course the concealment is revealed between us but actually the Creator makes the concealment the Creator does everything what is upon us is only to become incorporated in those actions that He takes us through.
13. S. (37:24) I was thinking about our connection, is it all about to build His greatness between us no matter what state you are in?
R. Correct, correct.
14. S. (37:57) Does Baal HaSulam describe here all of the states of the construction of faith, what is of use?
R. I cannot hear what you're saying.
S. Baal HaSulam describes here two states of the construction of faith, one of youth whose building is made of ascents and the other one is building by descents, is that the Elders?
R. You can build this building both from ascents and from descents, it all depends on how a person relates to it.
S. What is preferable?
R. There is no preference you should use any state any and every state so that also the descents will be as ascents.
15. S. (38:58) The whole purpose of our study is in fact revelation and connection to the Creator, the question is when in the ten, when the work in the ten is stronger, more connecting, during the concealment of the Creator or when the Creator is revealed to us?
R. These are two different forms of work when we don’t have an awakening then we can awaken and show each other how great we are heroic if we only wake up we want to come closer to the Creator we want to demand of Him not that we are so heroic that we don’t need the Creator on the contrary we have time to pray for it we have a state where we can cry to Him to help us out and the Creator creates such states intentionally where we will need Him and if we discover that we use correctly the state it’s a wonderful state specifically the states of descent if you use it correctly they can be a springboard because during the states of descent we are actually closer to the Creator because the state of descent is the truth our true state is revealed of our own who are we what are we it’s revealed that I am small and rotten and empty and so on and so forth but from that state I can cry I can ask and it all depends on our preparation on our efforts the states of descent are more important compared to the states of ascent because the states of ascent whatever you say about it I’m under the influence of the upper light it influences me and determines and it’s doing everything but in the states of descent here our connection if we prepared if we processed this state correctly we understand that it comes to us so we will connect and overcome and this state can be the best the most important state that gives the most contentment to the Creator through the state of descent together with the ten all of us together we yearn for Him by that we give Him greater contentment this is called my sons have defeated me.
S. If so who causes the concealment of the Creator we ourselves do it or Creator does it to us?
R. Everything comes from above, He is the first and He is the last.
16. S. (42:21) We in the work between us, we accumulate the faith or each time it starts from zero?
R. In truth we start from zero and each time from a greater zero from lower from a lower point but nevertheless we are experienced, and we are not in the ten for nothing where each one is in a slightly different state that compared to the others and that’s why we can each shall help his friend to come out of every descent.
17. S. (43:25) You know explained that zero can be greater than zero so this zero the delta between them is this how much the descent is greater than the ascent is stronger, however my question is with greater precision let's say now it’s considered a, it’s a congress and exactly the time that the congress starts I have a problem that comes to me that is so difficult, a problem of this world, that I have to make the decision, the decision is whether to come to the congress or the to run away. Is this what we’re talking about here about making this decision with your desire to forget about this world and come to the congress?
R. I can’t decide for you.
S. My question is whether this is the right decision?
R. I can’t decide for you do you understand it or not, if you’re asking are you in a dilemma and the correct question then yes the question is correct either to be in the congress in connection with the friends or to be disconnected from them go to another conference work or with the family so here you have to have your decision.
S. My decision is in any case like the friend said before, that everything that's happening in my feeling in the life of this world, the most important thing is to be with the friends.
R. You want me to answer this, you need to answer it, be well. There's no question here.
18. S. (45:24) Why the fact that the Creator is hidden degree after degree is beneficial for us. In what way does it benefit us? Does it benefit our spiritual advancement?
R. The fact that the path of divided into so many degrees it is to our benefit so that we will be able to build ourselves in each and every degree and what we've done already is joining the account so what you have done is like you’re building the tenth floor in the building and something is not right in the wall then one piece that belongs to that floor just falls off ends up that the entire building collapses that’s what it’s about we’re building it in such a way that besides in spirituality because there's a great difference between Shoresh one two three and four in each and every thing and adhesion and the entire degree of coarseness begins from zero so you can’t build it any other way you are building a connection between things although they are not connected because how can one Sefira be connected to another Sefira they connect only according to the measure of bestowal between them only like that so it turns out, how should I put it, it is impossible for this tower of corrections from here to the end of correction that it will not be divided into pieces because since the upper light started to build the will to receive out of existence out of absence it is building it in Shoresh one two three four degrees and each degree includes in it another set of four degrees and so on and so forth so in addition to the root in each degree of the presence of the Creator you actually get 125 degrees and you can’t have one degree that does not repeat the same pattern of Shoresh root one two three four. So there's no other structure we also although we are not aware of it but between us we are also in a process that goes from Shoresh root one two three four and everything in everything we have that.
19. S. (48:50) Right now during the lesson there's a feeling I noticed I felt a quality of bestowal and love in you specifically on your side in the way that you annulled yourself in order to bestow to your students in order to bestow to the Creator and there's a great desire to see my friends like you also is that a correct prayer?
R. Yes if you invest yourself in dissemination of the wisdom of Kabbalah in the place where you are capable of doing it, let's say in Georgia then certainly you will see in that the correct purpose of your life. Wherever we can correct the connection between people in whatever place, whichever country where we can bring them closer to the revelation of the Creator, that's where we need to do it.
20. S. (50:14) Is this the correct perspective that each degree we started as a youth, and we ended as elders?
R. That is also possible there's a rule that the individual and the collective is equal so whatever we go through in one degree will later repeat itself in this kind of application more and more until all the degrees are included that’s correct.
S. We learned in different place in the sources that that was what correct in the previous degree in the next it no longer works it is no longer correct and if so and if we finish the certain degree we build and build up to a certain state than when it is correct then suddenly stops working and then we suddenly become youth and what was correct before now becomes incorrect
R. Relatively yes each and every state you come to a new state where we have to start building anew but it is actually good since it is written they should be as new in your eyes and this way you are renewed each time.
S. In the article it turns out that the difference between the youth and the elders is that we connect it to the Creator or not?
R. Yes the Creator is that force that exists in all the states and all the degrees in the form of concealment partial concealment quarter concealment or revelation half revelation quarter revelation and so on and so forth but whatever remains is constant everything else is in flux.
21. S. (52:44) If we continue the words of the friends in those states of ruin, contradiction when we have frustration, tension, despair, is this a Klipa what is this state?
R. It is a Klipa it’s a shell, but it has to be revealed in order to give us strength to rise to an even higher degree we need to understand that there no is left with a right and no right without a left and you can rise and climb only using two legs two lines the middle line that is made out of two therefore the Klipa has a very important role in this.
S. This means that we cannot skip over the shell. This is the state where each one will help his friend and the friends need to bring him back to this state where right now you're blind.
R. Yes, yes.
22. S. (53:48) Is the matter of elders and youth somehow related to the amount of time we study the wisdom of Kabbalah?
R. Yes and no relatively you can say those who study more or less one is called youth one is called youth one is called an elder, but it depends on the number of states in connections that the person has gone through in the ten.
23. S. (54:19) In the relation to the ruin by the elders we heard Rav say the Creator makes the restriction and we only make the connection what does that mean?
R. That all the restrictions, all the darkness, everything comes from the above from the Creator. For you is the day, for you is the night.
24. S. (54:46) The Creator wants and is willing to be revealed, what does it mean that he wants it that he's willing to do it?
R. He's doing all the actions so that we will reveal Him.
25. S. (54:59) It is not clear how the elders receive the strength of the Creator even though they are under restriction and concealment, where does the elder get this force to work?
R. It is not certain that he has strength the descent corresponds to the ascent and also the elders are in ascents and descents like young kids toddlers when he is lacking something he is already screaming about it but for the adult to cry about something in has to be something very serious that he is lacking.
26. S. (55:44) In the ruin by the elders that because they believe the Creator is tending to them from this I derive vitality so what is this vitality the elders get?
R. That even during the descent they try to feel that the Creator causes their descent.
S. Yes that defines them as the elders but what about that gives them vitality, what is this vitality that they get?
R. Even if I go in the valley of the shadow of death I will not fear because you are with me. Specifically in those low states they discover the Creator with them.
S. What is this vitality, how do they get it, what do they do from here on? They received the contradiction the ruin they believe the Creator is taking care of them He’s with them but what do they do with this vitality they receive?
R. They wish to reveal the Creator inside this contraction inside this descent as if He is revealed they do not demand for him to be revealed rather they want in that state that is complete darkness for now for the time being to be in connection, to be in contact with Him.
S. They're already in a place where they say this descent the Creator arranged it and now out of the fact that they managed to arrange this relation Rabash writes they derive vitality?
R. Yes, even if they are in the state of darkness where they do not have the revelation of the Creator inside their senses they believe meaning not in the light of Hochma, the light of Hassadim that they are in connection with the Creator.
S. This enables them to work?
R. It allows them to do everything. It’s to work in faith above reason even when they have nothing they nevertheless hold themselves as if they have everything, as if they have everything.
27. S. (57:53) How this vitality we attribute it to the Creator and not to myself?
R. We always need to think that everything we receive both from the vessels, the states and also from the fulfillment, the scrutinies, it all comes from the Creator, and we wish only to demand to go with it to be incorporated in it.
28. S. (58:28) We may understand that Elders and youths are spiritual states so how can we connect the states in the ten when each friend is experiencing a different state?
R. It does not matter, we all need to see ourselves as ready for connection and each time we will change, and the change will be such that we will not criticize those changes. We will not do any measurements in it because it will constantly change and only confuse us. We need to be drawn to connection all of us together according to our nature, our different nature, according to the intensity of our different forces, according to the state's corporeal, spiritual. Everything is different but it is not important. In each and every moment we need to try and connect between us as much as possible and then from that we build the blocks for the building of sanctity.
29. S. (59:39) How can we hasten these states and quickly shift from the state of youths to the state of Elders?
R. To accelerate the states. Each time to see ourselves as being drawn to the construction of sanctity, the building of mutual bestowal between us.
30. S. (01:00:03) Can we say that the elders are different from the youth in that during the descent they have faith?
R. Yes that is correct, in each and every state the elders want to reveal their faith in the Creator meaning the connection with the Creator that will never be disconnected.
31. S. (01:00:56) In order to obtain the power of bestowal, how can a person use these strong feelings correctly such as pride and envy and use it for the benefit of the group?
R. You should use everything he's got, envy lust, whatever he’s got as long as he's working in the direction of the connection of the group. There are no qualities the Creator created for nothing, even if they go against the connection of Adam HaRishon, there is no such thing. Rather everything required is essential. From all your work you did not miss anything, you did not preface to anything. We need all the forces and in the end of correction we will see how they will complement one another and specifically in this way wholeness is revealed.
32. S. (01:02:16) It sounds as though from all the work that we scrutinized and is described in this article, we are constantly going through a cycle. Elders, youths, believing in the Creator, yes, no, yearning for connection. When does it all converge to a point where we discover the Creator inside these vessels of connection?
R. When the Creator gives His okay.
S. “On our side” what does that mean?
R. Whenever we finish the work, we cannot tell when.
33. S. (01:06:25) How to be elders so that the descent will be considered as construction?
R. You have to quickly as possible accelerate our development, very simple. Work faster in the connection between us in the ten.
R. I also get questions from the woman every day. I enjoy reading and hearing them and answering them, but it is better if we do it like this during the lesson, it also contributes to the connection.
