1. Rav’s Introduction: We are continuing on the same topic which is the main thing in entering the upper world, the world of bestowal, of love and connection with the Creator and all the created beings together. Therefore, our whole work needs to be quite simple and sharp, I would say, what are we aiming for, the benefit of the Creator or any other kind of direction? If I receive various discernments that I am aimed at, different thoughts and desires or views of all sorts, and not at the Creator, then I should also be happy that this is how the Creator, none else besides Him, that I am in this work with Him. The Creator is showing me how I can be aiming for all of the corners of my broken vessel, and not Him. By that. he gives me an opportunity each time, above all of the disturbances, as I identify all of my random desires as disturbances, but they are actually awakening me to turn to the Creator.

Each and every time, each and every moment of life, I have to check how I am aiming myself toward the Creator. He is the one who orchestrated and designed my situation, expecting the right response from me, to turn to Him, to pray to Him. Then I have work each and every moment, from whom did I receive, what I have right now, and what do we need to aim for out of my current situation; and that is what I always need to be engaged with. Except for the necessities that I need for survival, which are neither condemned nor praised, as I need to provide for my needs of what is necessary in this world that I need to do, and other than that, all of my heart and mind should be aimed only at the source.

The Creator is who is sending me all of these changes that are taking place in me and then I have to address Him each time with a prayer. On the one hand, we have to be all connected together in the 10 so it is easier for us to get back to being directed at the Creator together, each and every one of us and each will help his friend, that each one reminds the others that the Creator is both our source and our goal. Here we can very quickly, collectively, be directed together as one man as one heart, one desire, one intention, all directed at the Creator.

Accordingly, we will discover Him and have a collective vessel of our desires and our intentions all connected. Then certainly the Creator will be revealed in us according to our request and our prayer. Our work, we can divide already into a few stages. The first stage I need the support of the group in order to remember that each time I get what I get from the Creator, that there is none else besides Him. Stage two is from each and every state that I am in, I have to be directed to the Creator through the group and try to be directed to him not alone but specifically along with the group. Even though the group doesn't yet seem to me like the pieces of my soul, I am listening to the Kabbalists and learning about the structure of the collective soul. I try to do this even though it is still quite artificial.

It seems like directing to the Creator is more easily done individually but this is incorrect, if I truly want to be in order to bestow, I don't have the strength to bestow but as much as I connect with my friends, I design the intention of bestowing. Then together with my friends, we are all aiming at the Creator and this is the correct address. We also need to understand in each and every state that we get that these states are on the way, on the path they awaken in a very specific, accurate way. One by one we advance. We establish ourselves together with the single force and bring ourselves closer to the Creator as one force until one receives one. Until we begin to feel that everything there is in us, in our connection, comes from the Creator and what we can, even just a little bit from within us, how we can turn to Him, that also will certainly be directing this request for the Creator.

We have to learn how to compose the prayer because our spiritual work is concluded with a prayer to the Creator, and this request we have to see it as the complete conclusion of our feelings, our understanding, our sorting out of ourselves together. How each and every one of us collectively, turn to the Creator in various incidents. The prayer includes everything, the whole mind and emotion of what a person went through and his whole expectation for the future so there is no more than prayer. No more than the request to the Creator on behalf of the created being, and we have to try to direct ourselves to this correct prayer. This is not simple. It is a long path until we compose the correct prayer in every stage and level. The conclusion of our work in every stage is turning to the Creator, this is what we have to see in front of us and the more that we bring into these discernments everything that we have with our ups and downs of different states between us until we collect everything, gather everything into one vessel, one request, that is all aimed at the Creator is essentially our work.

In this prayer we are going to scrutinize the whole essence of Malchut, our desire to receive so that with all of its aspects, facets, and discernment, they all join as we are aiming them at the Creator. When we begin to advance to this with each one feeling that he is detached and where he is, all the way to wanting to go and connect with everyone because each one feels more and more without connecting to others, he can't direct himself to the Creator. It doesn't come right away. It comes after many states because the light has to shine from above to give a person the feeling that this is the only way that he is directed to the Creator and it is completely not clear to us in advance. Until we begin to be connected in such a way between us and to the Creator in each and every state this is how we count our states to the extent that we are opposite and similar states where we want to relate everything to the Creator. This is called faith and not for ourselves, not for our reason and the more that we work this way then the more we advance until we begin to discover spiritual discernment in this. This is all before us, it all depends on our persistence each and every one and all of us together and the path is not long. We actually don't know but we already went through many states.

It is like when a baby grows, he doesn't know how he grows as he can't monitor himself, we are the same, we don't know where we already are but we are indeed already close to entering spiritual awareness, to the extent of being connected between us we will also be connected with the Creator to advance more. That is all and again the main thing we should pay attention to, is what we collect from all of our states is like crumbs that we are collecting into a prayer. We have nothing to do in the states that we go through besides aiming everything to the Creator, a request, a gratitude whatever it is as long as we turn to Him. It doesn't matter that we don't know the prayers, it is actually the other way around, as there are such stories that the Kabbalists tell that even a child who is whistling, he might express a prayer much stronger, or a person who is illiterate, or a person who raises a glass of wine and says thank you to the Creator for this life. That is something that might be a prayer as long as it is the work of the heart so as helpless as we might be, we have to strengthen each other from these states as it is said, from the depths I call on you, this is where we call on the Creator. The more a person feels he is incapable and powerless of anything this is the truth, the more that he feels it and the more he has an environment that establishes the power to turn to the Creator, this is how he succeeds and receive the light that reforms and begins to better understand and feel who he is dealing with, the upper force.

2. S. (15:41) Is it necessary to show what we are exactly overcoming and what my friend revealed to me and how I work it out? Or should I take this opportunity and include it in my heart's prayer?

R. I don't think that we can measure correctly and not get confused, I think these things should come to us bit by bit from our experience on the path and so we will work on it, it is not even our topic right now. I asked for this topic only yesterday so it will be ready and, in a few days, when we complete the document, we’ll go to a document on prayer.

3. S. (16:58) We learn all the time that prayer is the work of the heart, how do we do this to bring it not into my personal heart but the heart of the10?

R. That is correct. We cannot bring the prayer to each and every one in their personal heart because our personal heart is an egoistic heart and even though we each feel in our heart some phenomena but these phenomena are not spiritual at all. But if we connect as one man in one heart then our prayer becomes a correct prayer and the heart, our common heart feels this and the Creator feels it to this extent and receives it. We have to work on this as there are a few states ahead until we correct everything but we already understand what we are going to have to do. We will hear more and agree with it, yes or no, and move towards it until we all get ready to connect to it. It will come as we are quite successful in advancing with the material, most importantly not to lose friends on the path because there are so many friends who don't have any flavor in this and without feeling the taste, the necessity for it and the need, that this is the only correct progress, they don't feel this. They can speak it with their minds but they don't feel it yet and this is a problem that we have to help them, to give them an example.

4. S. (19:24) How do we use the desires of the friends in the group through all the states the Creator is taking us?

R. I have to try to relate and come closer to each and every one, to try as one time I am connected to one and another time to another and by being closer to them, I soften my heart and my heart becomes like plasticine. It is through the connection that I want to carry out with each and every friend as a result I feel that this Play-Doh has no shape, that its shape becomes that I am in there, in between everyone, gluing everyone together, my shape is how I glued all of them together through me. I become the adhesive that connects them, that binds them and this is the most accurate form in the meantime as much as I can express it, this is the most accurate form through which I see my role and my goal. You will see these shapes and forms will come to what I am talking about, you will see how they rise and how if this is how it should be, you will advance and it doesn't have to be so open and obvious to everyone. It depends on a person's character as some people are more expressive or work more externally and it works out for them, others are more modest and closed, it is different but it will happen for each and every one.

5. S. (22:31) We say a person should never pray for himself but if a person has problems with necessities should they pray for themselves or should that still be done through the group?

R. He should pray for himself yes, but out of praying for everyone else because otherwise the prayer is not accepted. Meaning he has to, as it is written in the prayer book for the righteous and the wise, these and those, and us. Meaning we imagine ourselves at the end as being included in everyone else so one can pray for himself but on the condition that he is praying for the whole as he is included there. He shapes the correct form of passing the light to him because the light that shines all the way to the person has to go through all of these connections and discernments which starts from very high up and then bit by bit to send to the person who is there at the end of the road.

6. S. (24:08) A bit earlier you gave an example of those crumbs from which we assemble the prayer so each crumb is a prayer from which we have a greater and more common prayer?

R. Yes.

S. What does it mean to arrange the prayer in Malchut?

R. Malchut is the connection between everyone and since it is broken the whole soul is shattered because Malchut brings together all of the pieces of the collected vessel with the Creator created KHBZAM (Keter, Hochma, Bina, Zeir Anpin and Malchut). Malchut has to receive everything she gets through KHBZA Keter, Hochma, Bina, Zeir Anpin and when she receives it in order to receive there will be a shattering. and when she receives in order to bestow there is the final correction.

Therefore, we have to erect the Malchut, this is called raising Shechina from the dust. We bring together the pieces and try to connect them even though between these pieces there is hatred, rejection, resistance and so on. This is our work. We will have to carry out the connection between us also and accordingly the upper light, the upper force will open before us and the upper world will be revealed and we will advance. Then when we explain this to the whole of humanity it will be easier. Thus, we will influence them out of our unity, out of the connection of global Bnei Baruch because we exist as a collective vessel, just like the one who emerged from Babylon where there were many different people and groups connected together, headed by Abraham. We went through all of this path and now we are going back to a similar state as we were together before the shattering.

Therefore, it turns out that by this we will also cause all of humanity to see that the connection is the only remedy against all of those states’ humanity is going through. They will understand and feel it, except it. We bring to all of humanity the emotion, mind, power, everything just like there is this very little part in the human brain that operates the whole body even though this part itself is a microprocessor. Similarly, if we connect and achieve this spiritual form between us through our connection, by this we will also show the world and activate, operate the world to connection.

S. Every morning the 10 builds a prayer from the morning lesson for the day. How do we build the prayer in the correct way so we can consider it as a prayer that expresses our work?

R. The prayer that we want to establish to the Creator has to be according to what we want to happen even though we are not there yet. Therefore, we first need to ask the Creator but our present state will be properly connected, that way we'll be connected as we see that we are not, that we are distant from each other and we don't have a desire for it or understand the necessity of connection between us. We still are under the governance of our ego which both in our desire and in our body does not assist us in any way and only hinders us from thinking about connection. We understand this and we don't try to escape it, we ask for the corrections. The remoteness between us appears as the coarseness of the vessel, when the light that reforms come and helps us to connect above this coarseness then we attain the Zakut, purity so then we have two kinds of Reshimot, the Reshimot of coarseness (Reshimo de-Aviut and Reshimo de-Hitlabshut) and the record of the clothing and then we become worthy of the advancement into spirituality. We have to do this, we have to try more and more and again and again, I am already hearing and seeing from some people that they are beginning to somewhat get a feel for it, to touch and taste how it works.

7. S. (30:54) What can we do when a person does not feel or he feels a specific friend is missing and losing connection with the 10?

R. Try to talk to everyone and see what they recommend to you.

8. S. (31:28) In work above reason if more and more friends join this effort each day persistently, how does this influence the individual work of each and every friend?

R. Unequivocally it will, what we all talked about influences each and every one a person is influenced whether he's hearing it or not.

S. How will he be influenced?

R. In various ways he will feel he's changing

9. S. (32:10) How is it possible to use our ego correctly to give contentment to the Creator and all the states that we go through?

R. Only by connection of the hearts, thoughts, desires, intentions and goals that will be aimed as much as we are now scattered and separated, as much as we want the Creator's help so the Creator will feel all of the gaps between us. That is what we should pray for him.

10. S. (33:19) The deficiency for prayer in the 10 it exists above reason or should I somehow feel it also within reason?
R. Whatever we go through in our spiritual process we are building forms of connection and bestowal above the ego, our ego the desire to receive certainly participates in that otherwise how can we work and connect above that. So, it follows that both the egoistic desire to receive and the force to resist it and the goal that I am drawn to with the friends that I establish around me, all of that we want to shape all as one thing, one form, one soul and the light in it as one.

Excerpt 24 (34:39)

11. R. (36:13) It doesn't matter what state a person is in, we can't examine these states, we can't measure them, the states that are above, below, greater or smaller it doesn't matter it all depends on the relative effort that each and every person makes. The easiest thing is to give an example like with a baby if he smiles, how happy it makes the parents and when he grows and he is 10 or 15 then they are not that impressed. The Creator is impressed when we from our small states can make an effort to him and therefore, we can't measure according to the external vessels what is our importance or the importance of our actions and how do we bring contentment by this or by that. We just have to do in every state that we are in in every connection we are in to smile to the Creator, to turn to the Creator, to ask from the Creator, each time to renew the connection with him. When we out of detachment and lack of importance want to achieve connection and through this connection between us to connect to the Creator, this is important in his eyes as it is written “I dwell in my people”. The Creator resides in the people, in our connection and here in the meantime we have to trust that this is how it is until we begin to receive by the light that reforms more feeling all of importance of connection and addressing the Creator. This is how we will advance until we feel him and connect to him and truly begin to be together with him. When we already begin to feel that we work to him and he fills us then we enter the sensation of the upper world in practice and we begin to see our relation through Partzufim how we relate to the Creator and the Creator to us through a system called the worlds. This is how we will understand it and also understand why this world is built in such a way. It also has the same shape of spirituality except that we have broken in our vessels and we feel this reality, this relationship between us and the Creator in such a way that this is what appears to us now. It will change and what is important is to be connected between us and the Creator, to try to connect ourselves, each and every one. To address the Creator individually seems easier but through the 10 seems more difficult, so you have to build within you right here a template, a shape of the group and through that I relate to the Creator.

12. S. (40:42) Precisely about what we spoke now that in the descent I feel that all that is left is some memory out of whatever there was before so what is the correct prayer to actualize this pattern because I feel the pattern, this mold is the only thing I have left from the previous states?

R. You have the friends, you need to talk to them and together you should try to put together a prayer to the Creator and that work itself should be only between you and I cannot get into it and start teaching you but whatever you hear, you should start to try to turn to the Creator.

S. Sometimes we just don't remember that we have to?
R. You don't remember, so complain to the Creator how do you not remind us? With everything turned to him. Why did you forsake me?

13. S. (42:06) What do we call reality?

R. We call reality that feeling that exists in our mind and our emotions about which for the time being we have no doubt.

14. S. (42:42) About the template we have to build in the heart, how do we do this and what is it?

R. My template is the group which I try each and every time to feel that it exists inside my feeling and with one look I can feel them, that this is how I can assign to them a single perception and attitude. This is what I have out of connection with the 10.

S. Connection between the friends, this is my attitude to them?

R. It is what exists between us to the extent that we are connected with our intention to the goal to obtain the Creator, to bestow to the Creator.

S. For each one the template is different or there's something common?

R. Of course, we cannot compare whatever there is in each and every one but it also doesn't matter, here we are speaking about each and every one from the ten how much we want to feel that it exists in each of us and later we will start to connect among all of these individual perceptions more and more from degrees to degree, we will feel all of us connect and become incorporated until the end of correction.

15. S. (44:48) What do we turn to the Creator with the deficiencies of the friends, the connection between us, the gap between us, can you define this?

R. We turn to the Creator more or less with a single request, give us the possibility to connect in order so that out of the connection between us we will be able to reach love, loving you. There are many things here that we want to see you, that we want to crown you over all of reality but overall, this is the prayer that we want to attain in the connection between us the deficiency to love you. Here we expect to get an answer from him, to hear the answer that we need to start by loving man, each and every one in the 10 and out of that you will feel precisely what you are missing, lacking in the current state, to reach love, to reach me, this is what you will hear from the Creator. Because to reach the love of the Creator is only possible if you assemble all of the relations of love between you, connections, mutual dependency, gratitude of each one for how much they are holding him.

16. S. (47:14) A person can open his heart to the Creator to the extent he can open his heart to the friends, otherwise it's imaginary?

R. Yes, correct. There can't be love of the Creator greater than love of friends but slowly of course in the beginning we are more directed at the Creator and the more we aim to him, we go back to the fact that we need to stabilize ourselves to the friends. Then by that we can grasp onto the Creator.

17. S. (48:28) The order of things doesn't exactly fall into the right place if we don't have the template, we can't turn to the Creator so what about all of the request for connection or the love that we receive from the Creator if we don't have this template, how can I still turn to him and ask for something?

R. We need to turn to the Creator in all cases, those that are more or less stabilized, clear or not so clear, it doesn't matter you can always reach out to the Creator and he's doing so either instinctively or consciously that he wants to be connected to the Creator in a way that he is more connected through the 10. We are always tied only the Creator. We always have the Creator filling the gaps between us.

S. We said the correct quality address is through the template of the 10.

R. This is still in front of us but it is actually what we need to be directed to.

S. As long as we don't have it, how to not turn to the Creator personally because the Creator, there we lack the vessel?

R. You need to do it nevertheless with more and more efforts and the Creator we can reach only through the 10 and out of lack of choice we reach out to the ten.

18. S. (50:50) What do I need to show the friends in order to open their heart, I want to open their heart but I will look weak, how do I do this?

R. You have many questions and I have known you for a long time and you always ask, you read the material.

S. Yes, I read.

R. From your questions to me there will be no outcome, you need to read and extract the essence and to try to apply and do this more and more. You have questions all the time and if I give you the opportunity you would ask non-stop and that is not the way. Instead, you should get answers from the articles and realize them.

Excerpt 25 (52:00)

19. R. (53:19) That is very important that in every single state, we first feel that we are being cared for, we are in intensive care and the Creator is not letting go of us for even a single second each and every one of us. That's why we need in accordance with him taking care of us to know how we relate to this care, how each and every moment we respond to him and every time we change ourselves accordingly when we feel how the Creator changes. His attitude constantly changes and it forces us to change and usually we don't identify his attitude to us as such and then he demands from us additional adhesion and connection, effort for connection a little bit more each time to connect to him, from each other from each other to him, Crater in Hebrew Boreh, means, come and see, to the extent that we tie ourselves together more, to that extent we can grasp him and this is called “my sons have defeated me”. That he brought us the shattering, the distance from each other that we were pushed around by an egoistic force and we are the opposite that we are above the ego, above the forces of rejection, that we are connecting and to the extent that we discover the Creator on this distance. We felt him in the shattering as the small force of livelihood that fills us and now with our ego, with these sources of rejection that we are above them and we will discover him to the fullest depth, coarseness, purity and the screen that we will learn him and he will penetrate us. When we build these connections between us according to the qualities of the Creator this is considered the Creator is clothed in us and all of the relations between us and all the nature that will take place will be according to the nature of the Creator. Then we will feel and understand to the fullest depth who and what he is. That will be our nature.

19. S. (56:46) I can only respond to the Creator by how much I am invested in the group, not by myself?

R. Correct, what is the question?

S. That is what I wanted to know, there's nothing I do by myself, I have to do it through the 10?

R. Yes.

Excerpt 26 (57:31)

20. R. (59:10) Both in ascents and in descents we will begin to feel that all of that is simply coming closer to the Creator in both lines both when I descend, I feel that I become seemingly distant from the Creator. On the other hand, let's say on the left line it gives me the opportunity to come closer to the Creator on the right line like a wheel it does half around seemingly towards the back but then it turns around towards the front, same with a with us. We have no advantage unless we have some action which is in reverse because the world in itself doesn't change, only we receive it that it's in two directions only with respect to us it takes place. When we begin to rise and faith above reason to perceive a spiritual reality then both the ascents and descents have the same weight, the same importance and then we constantly feel ourselves advancing even when we descend, we feel that it is advancement only in the left line

21. S. (01:00:40) How can one be happy and feel connected with the Creator in the descent, do we have to give awakening from below?

R. During the descent a person cannot be joyful of what he feels because he feels the lack of fulfilment that is on one hand. On the other hand, if he understands, he doesn't feel but he understands in his mind this entire descent is in order to vessels that he will later on be able to rise to and he is grateful for having it. Just like Rabash gives the example, the father passes away and he leaves the son a big factory. The son was having fun before but now he needs to learn so on the one hand, it is hard work, but on the other hand he got great property and accordingly he can reach great things. He can feel himself as a manager, a producer, as one who is doing something in his life in the world, so it depends how we promote it.

I'm a person like a person in the street and I have no goal and I'm not tied to it and every single problem that is revealed in the world I see it as the problem, as a disaster. Look what we have with climate, we have everything in this world, we have the heat, the pandemic, and you will see the winter that is coming. Of course, all of this I accept as a curse. On the other hand, if I understand that all of these things come in order to awaken me towards connection, coming towards the understanding how I need to influence the upper force that governs all of the climate, all of our life, all the ascent, and all the descent, the international relations and stock market and everything. If I know how I can influence such a force, the upper force then I will be given the opportunity to come closer and to influence and for that I should be grateful. I will be able to change all of reality, all of the world. It all depends how a person relates to what is happening to him, who he is in contact with, who he's connecting to. I don't see any in any state that as anything that is not required or that is bad, we always rise in spirituality, we never go back and this is how we have to work.

22. S (01:04:48) How do we build the prayer together to build the Kli?

R. We need to learn that. We will soon finish this article and move to a part called ‘The Prayer’. This is the main part. We have nothing more to do in our state towards the upper force, only correct prayer. We need to learn what we do with ourselves, the connection between us, and reach out to the Creator, that this work will change reality. It will change reality. More accurately, it will change us so we will rise in our perception of reality more and more until we will find that the reality is, in fact, perfect and complete. It's called the world of Ein Sof. We will reach that and we will arrive at that.

23. S (01:06:17) Sometimes it feels as if the work you did before is not helping. During a descent it seems as though all you can do is crawl to the lesson or to the meeting with the ten. Is this excerpt talking about some work we can do?

R. Whatever you are capable of doing you should do. Don't think that the states that you described where there is no ability to do anything but to crawl on all fours towards the group, don't think that this is the worst state, the state could be worse. We yet need to experience them.

Excerpt 27 (01:07:27)

24. R (01:09:34) Understand that in each and every place, wherever we are, it is all still an ascent in comparison to the previous state. It may require slightly greater effort from us in rising even more above the ego and exerting towards the connection and so on in every state that we experience. These are the rungs of the ladder.

25. S (01:10:14) Do I have to overcome the ascent and to see it as an ascent or can I be in it and feel it as an ascent?

R. It is a correction to try to accept the descent as an ascent and feeling it this way.

Excerpt 28 (01:10:55) twice

26. S (01:15:06) I always picture the state where a person finds some artificial way to work.

R. That is correct when the person does so but it is not correct in terms of the work because by that he is escaping to some corner and he does not advance. It is preferable not to do anything in such a situation. Support from the group, participation in the lessons, all kinds of things are required until he sees that he has no choice and that he must respond correctly to all of the situations that the Creator sets up for him.

27. S (01:16:12) I don't understand what it means to run from the exile and commit suicide.

R. It is called that because he enters reason and doesn’t go above reason.

28. S (01:16:57) A person wants to work in another way when the Creator takes away the taste in the work, so the lack of fulfilment pushes him to a different state. The excerpt says he rises to a higher state without self-interest. I'm still activating myself to be fulfilled in some way.

R. It is correct that the person always works with his vessels. The question is how does he ascribe himself to that which his reason, his ego, tells him or does he do it against his ego, above reason? That’s the difference.

29. S (01:18:10) How can we reach that state where when the Creator takes the deficiency away from us, we feel it as a blow and not simply put a salve on it?

R. What is the question? Of course, to us it seems like the Creator takes spirituality from us, like we had some and now we don't.

S. I do not feel it as a blow. I say I have a deficiency now but it is not too bad. How can I feel it as a very strong, serious blow?

R. I have no desire to think about spirituality and I cannot be associated with it. I have no feeling and then I am in a state of despair, of helplessness.

30. S (01:19:17) According to the excerpt I need to check my taste in the work every day. We have worked years like a donkey to the load and ox to the burden, so we do not pay attention to it.

R. We need to always relate to the vessels of reception and all our work needs to be above the vessels of reception. I can't just erase those vessels and say I don't have them. So, what am I working with? I am altogether the will to receive. It will come. Continue a little more and you will see. These excerpts are a little bit more confusing and appear to us more confusing.

31. S. (01:20:06) How can I get more deficiency to bestow?

R. You want more of a lack to bestow? The force of bestowal is the Creator. Turn to Him and ask, learn how to ask, and you will receive. There is no problem. ‘More than the calf wants to suckle the cow wants to nurse.’ He really wants to give us the desire to bestow. He will give it to us joyously to the extent that we want it and as much as we can tolerate it.

32. S. (01:21:25) Can we summarize it by saying that the blows, the distance, the spies, and the descents are the places to work and I have to say that it came from Him for my benefit and because of that I am getting closer?

R. Yes.

S. Is the actual place of work being to justify the friends when I see they are not corrected and don't want to work?

R. That, too, is your work

33. S. (01:22:23) How do we bring the remedy before the blow?

R. How do we bring the medicine before the blow? Be drawn to connection all the time and from that we address the Creator. Then it is certain that you will constantly be in ascent because even in the descents you receive, you will also receive them as an ascent. Only connection between you and then turning with it to the Creator.

Excerpt 28 (01:23:12)

34. S. (01:27:20) We are told that we should not evoke the left in the group so what does it mean that we should pray to the Creator for the left?

R. You need to be in the state of addressing the Creator and to be adhered to Him in every single state, both from the right and the left. You will see that there are only two forms of work. When we're on the right there is gratitude and from the left it is with the lack, with deficiency, but even in the deficiency you are thanking for the deficiency because specifically through the deficiency you rise up. How will we ascend if we do not have the feelings of the deficiency? Every ascent for us is rising above the ego, upon the ego. Therefore, as the ego is revealed more and more, which is the left, we can more and more appreciate the work of the Creator and what He does for us and to rise in the right. There is no right without left and there is no left without right. Each of them actually defines the other. That is how they are connected.

S. Should we say that the left is the internal work of a person?

R. The left is the internal work in a person but also the right. The right is no less the left. We ourselves need to be constantly in the middle line, to locate what is the state between the right and the left. The Creator has no right and left but He relates to us from those two directions in order to stabilize us to be like Him. On one hand we grow the vessels and on the other hand we stabilize the vessels. That is how we advance.

35. S. (01:30:09) Why do you want to believe that the whole world is in wholeness and not really want the world to be in wholeness?

R. No. On one hand, all of reality, which is the Creator, is in wholeness except for us. On the other hand, we want to believe that we, too, are in wholeness. We need to go through all kinds of states in order to educate us, to bring us to wholeness. Imagine that you were born in a world that is all good but you don’t understand or feel it. You are being taught how to get to know it in order to fit into the whole world. You can learn only from a thing and its opposite. Therefore, on one hand, we are in a world of Ein Sof which is all good, there is nothing to correct there at all. We have to be brought to the correct functioning that is in that whole world. That’s why all of the opposite forms to wholeness are being revealed.

We are being taught how to understand those incomplete states to complete states, and through these two stages, we advance. We begin to become worthy of advancing and becoming more refined in a world that is perfect and whole. It always existed like that and it still is now, but how could we learn to correct it and how to exist in it? We are given many such examples. A king wants to leave all of his kingdom for his son but how will he teach him? So, he needs to put him through all those states that are incomplete and shattered in different ways so that through them his son will learn the internality of this system and then he will receive all the whole things. When he is whole and he sees something whole he knows how to relate to it and how to govern it correctly.

36. S. (01:33:05) In the article it say ‘when he engages in the right, he should come to a state where he sees that he is close to the Creator’ But it is not true because I’m doing all I can to engage in connection with friends and the Creator but the only thing that I feel is that the Creator has forsaken me and I will not succeed in the work of bestowal. How can I rise above this reason?

R. First of all we can see this on you today. How can you rise upon those states? Don’t relate to those states, like you are feeling it. Don’t be like a child that received some little blow and it cries as if that’s it, as if the whole world is destroyed. Other than your state, there is another state. Look at your friends. They are actually in good and nice states. Look at them and incorporate with them together and you will see that it is not all a lost case, that it seems to you that way. Then you emerge from your state to more exalted states and you can continue. Meaning, we need to try not to enter with all of our feelings and intellect into the state itself. We enter, that is something that the Creator arranges for us already. But we try to come to a state where we will see ourselves in an objective manner. Who we are, what we are, who did this thing to us, why did He do this to us. With that we need to incorporate with the 10, with the group and to understand that to be in a down state, in a low state, a descent there is not benefit. I need to try and raise myself to a state in which I see creation, justify creation, observe all the negative and positive things and work with that. It will pass. But the fact that you have a bitter face today is a good thing.

37. S. (1:36:06) How should we increase the frequency of the changes in the states? How to bridge the gap between those point where we can determine our state compared to the Creator?

R. It all depends on the effort. If we try to connect fast. Move from one state to another. Like the Kabbalists recommend to us. Then we hasten times.

38. S. (1:36:57) We have two lines that engage, but it is not like that. We are tossed out.

R. Those are states. That’s it. You had one state, and now you have another. So what? You are like a little child entering into some feeling and you cry and cry as if nothing could happen except for this. Later you will enter into a happy state and will be happy until the heavens. And there is no other state. We need to get used to the fact that all of these states are taking place upon us and we need to use both these states. Both the good and the bad and use both of them and to be in the middle line from the two of them. And that’s it. Don’t be like a little child that is constantly either crying or laughing. Be as an adult, a mature man that has both this and that and is not impressed by either. You have seen all of those states in life already.

39. S. (1:38:32) You said earlier about all the prayers to the Creator that we need to do it through the 10 and we should build like a mold of the 10. Can you elaborate, what it means to build such a pattern, how to develop it, and how it changes?

R. No, you need to take this, all of the social articles that you need to implement and make the mold, the form of the 10 that way.

S. To realize the Rabash articles and from that the mold is created?

R. It seems to me yes

40. S. (1:39:15) In excerpt 27, you said that ‘he runs from the work and he won't succeed.’ The question is, we learned that the last state is patience, how to be patient and not get confused with being lazy?

R. It is written anything but leave. I am willing to go through all of the states no matter what. Just simply leaving the correction from advancement to the purpose of creation, I don't want to do that. I don't agree with leaving. Therefore, everything that takes place with me, I receive it and I have no problem with it as I know these things have to happen along the way. I need to try and go through them as fast as possible, not that I leave or exit. Where do I exit to? To my beastly existence? That I don't agree with.

S. I mean that these things are big.

R. OK

41. S. (1:40:40) What does it mean to get the right discernment when going in reason on the left?

R. That we need the left as well. Because we rise upon the left from one state to another. The left brings us the lack, the right brings us the force and we ascend. We always begin with the left where we have a deficiency and then we seek the force of how to rise upon the left.

S. That means that we clearly see what we are lacking?

R. Yes.
