Part: 2

Baal HaSulam. The Arvut (Mutual Guarantee). #28

1. R. (01:17) Meaning that there will be a group from among all of humanity that this group will be able to receive from the Creator the message and spread it through all of humanity in such a manner that everyone will ultimately come to its realization of this message.

Reader Continues: (01:39) “For this reason he adds…”

2. R. (04:06) The covenant is the connection between the created beings to the upper force, the intention to bestow. “How do I attain this intention in order to bestow?” Then it goes gradually, slowly expands through all the nations of the world. The truth is that there is no difference between them each one, in their character, their ego, each one in all sorts of forms of their own but in sum total they are building the final ultimate connection between them something whole. Corrections they are making each correction unto himself. As you know, let us say that we are creating a car, a vehicle, it has all sorts of parts in the car, we need to create them correctly from each and every one separately, we check them and then we begin to assemble it. So here we are talking about this that each and every nation needs to receive a correction of his own and then connect.

3. S. (05:22) So why do we need one nation to correct everyone, why can't you work with each nation and bring them to correction?

R. According to what will he make their correct correction?

S. As he worked with Israel he can work with each and every nation, and then he will bring them to connection with everyone.

R. No specifically it is real those same people that are representatives from the whole world. From the whole world, they do not belong to anyone, and they don’t belong to anyone, they are representatives of everyone. So what they will receive will expand in everyone.

S. It can also be done in every nation and have representatives that work with them.

R. That is exactly what it was, how did it happen in Babylon? All of the Nations that were in Babel they each one in something connected to a group and received the method of connection, love thy neighbor as thyself and accordingly called themselves Israel.

Reader continues: (06:38) …This means that you will be…

4. R. (07:01) Each one and one from them. Each one cannot make cannot obtain connection with the Creator rather only by this, that everyone connects to that same method that Israel, that this group tells them about.

Reader continues: (07:21) “And at any rate I need one nation to start with now…”

5. R. (07:32) But when they will do this, there will be a key, an entrance here for all the nations for all of humanity.

Reader continues: (07:40) “For this reason he ends…”

6. S. (09:27) A kingdom of priests, what does that mean?

R. A kingdom of priests means that the force of bestowal is in control over a person or upon all of the nations. Meaning that the highest quality in a person is called a priest, a Kohan. Meaning that you will reach such corrections that the holiest of qualities will be revealed between you.

S. Why for example isn't it a kingdom of prophets, why specifically a kingdom of priests.

R. What did I tell you about what a Kohan, priest is?

S. It is a degree, a quality.

R. So what could be a higher degree than that?

S. I don't understand why a priest and not a prophet.

R. A prophet is someone who receives the degree of prophet and there are many degrees in that, and it could be that today he is a prophet and then tomorrow he is not. It depends on what form he is a prophet in and what is he a prophet. A prophet is called one who talks with the Creator, he's in a special form of connection with the Creator so anyone can be a prophet and accordingly he becomes closer or further from the Creator. But a Kohen is one whose degree is attained in bestowal. Let us put it this way, a Levite is in the degree of bestow in order to bestow and a Kohen is in order to receive in order to bestow.

S. So it is not different systems of souls, it is degrees?

R. Of course, I don't know what you mean by different systems. Each and every soul is the will to receive and that could be in different degrees. You can also be in the degree of a Levite and then in the degree of a Kohen.

7. S. (12:21) And the ten to start implementing the Arvut could there be a state that lets say two or three start performing it or the whole ten has to agree together?

R. It is preferable for them to be all of them but each according to his own forces. Each according to his ability, understanding because there could be such that don't understand that it is necessary and that is how it is.

S. Maybe for a few of the ten to start implementing what is the right way to begin?

R. No, simply everyone talks about this, everyone wants this and as much as each is capable to yearn from his heart for connection with the friends and the Creator then that is how he works.

8. S. (13:43) What does it mean when it is written that the reward is the final form of the Dvekut, including all of the rewards that can be announced just as it is written that there is something egoistic that we need to reach, what is he talking about?

R. It depends on how you interpret it. Adhesion to the Creator is called egoistic? Adhesion is called in order to the equivalence of form and the way that I am similar to the Creator, the quality of the Creator is the highest most complete and whole, so if I am resembling him, I am also in the highest form of bestowal in a very high place so what can be egoistic there. Interpret the words correctly.

S. The final part as it is written in a way that we could not understand why we do not have the vessel to even imagine or think about it justice.

R. I explained to you this many times, but you did not hear, you hear your heart and not what I'm saying. Try to hear what you are being told. Try to aim, to calibrate yourself to that which I am saying and then you will see that with my words is the essence of the situation about what we are talking.

9. S. (15:50) We are evolving around a very important point of giving an example and you said many times that in the ten the best thing is to give a person and example and here the Creator is giving us our role of being a model and example for all of the nation’s so what is so effective to giving someone the example?

R. Because you see that there is someone like you that is in a higher degree than you and then Envy, lust and honor all of your qualities participate in this. That is why it is a most beneficial thing.

10. S. (16:39) Adhesion is possible in the ten only in Egypt or only after we exit Egypt?

R. Arvut can take place in the exit of Egypt without Arvut there is no Exodus from Egypt, there is no vessel from the exit of Egypt. The exit of Egypt is not that you're sitting on some ship, and you travel, the exit from Egypt is called inside of our vessel to the extent in which you are connected. Accordingly we exit our will to receive that is between us and gradually, slowly feel that we are already in the desire to bestow between us, that is called at the exit from Egypt.

11. S. (17:54) About being a personal example, about being a Kohan, a priest, how will we become a nation of priests, is it possible in our current state?

R. Of course, this has to do with us as we need to rise to where each is in bestowal to the other and the ten as much as possible with all of one's heart that is called that we are yearning to be a priest, Kohanim. At least to yearn for that.

12. S. (18:50) It is written that if you agree to be that virtue what does it mean to agree?

R. That we want to attain this even if we are not capable for the time being, but we are willing to do all of the actions in order to get to that.

S. Is there such a state where a person agrees but he cannot do it, he agrees with everything, but he cannot do it?

R. That is how it is usually in spirituality and then he turns and cries out.

13. S. (19:33) Continuing what he just said that you will be a virtue for all the nations so first of all what is a Segula, a virtue?

R. A virtuous people is one that is connection with the Creator and has a connection with all the created beings and can be a connector between the Creator and created beings.

S. And then he says that you will be the virtue that through you the sparks of purity will flow on.

R. That the sparks are the small lights that will move to all of the nations of the world that will want to connect to the virtuous nation and that way they will receive purification meaning that their will to receive will take on forces for purification.

S. So what is the duty of Bnei Baruch, is it to take those sparks of the nation and dissemination?

R. Yes, yes.

14. S. (20:53) In Item 28 you will be a nation of priests, who is a priest?

R. Kohan is bestowal, the priest is bestowal.

15. S. (21:18) It is written, if you will agree to be the virtue of all the nations, what does it mean if we agree? I feel that all my friends agreed and want to be the remedy for the others. What else?

R. Okay, so we shall do, and we shall hear, let them do and act it out and practice.

S. What does it mean to implement the agreement?

R. We will be as a device to move the force of bestowal from the Creator to all the created beings.

16. S. (21:58) Is scrutinizing the prayer and the prayer itself a sort of bestowal to the Creator?

R. Yes. Prayer is bestowal to the Creator.

Item 29 (22:10)

17. R. (25:47) That is actually this whole article, the Arvut, this mutual guarantee that we have to come to this whole implementation in this way and this will be called the end of correction.

Of course there are many things here that are not so clear, and we don't know what is clear and not so clear but with the continuation of the article of Matan Torah where he explains why the Torah is given and here he explains what the usage of the Torah we should come to.

18. S. (26:30) He writes that you cannot disclose pure work until they have the courage to actually execute it.

R. Well of course, how can you tell, it is like a little child that comes home from school, and he says why didn't you tell me now that I have to study now for ten more years. This is what you did for me, this is what you prepared for me? So you don't tell him he goes, and he studies and he's there and that is how it is and that is how we are. We have to go and then later it is revealed to us, the extent in which we are now in this and how we live only in this and how we have no choice. It is explained to us slowly, each according to his ability to suffer and he needs at first to understand that he is not receiving pleasures inside of his vessels. Just like a little child is explained, you will receive a kilo of sweets, so he is willing. But if you tell him that you will receive some special grade at school he doesn't understand that he doesn't eat that, what desire does he fill with that. So therefore we need to gradually advance on the path to acquire new vessels which will gradually be new vessels of the Creator and by that we will come to a state by which certainly we will attain the purpose of creation, the essence of creation.

S. What is courage a person has to be courageous to reach bestowal?

R. What is courageous?

S. That is my question, what does it mean?

R. What does courageous mean?

S. It means that he is bold, that he is brave, that he jumps in the fire, I don't know what I'm imagining.

R. This is everything that we do not have it all, we are big scaredy-cats basically. Look at babies you can see these things in a natural way this way and the fact that we then receive courage that is because we already have a connection with all sorts of forms of nature that bring his confidence, pleasure is, pride.

S. So how to acquire this courage?

R. We acquire it all from the Creator, there is no question about this. You have no other source from which you receive something both the bad and the good, you receive it all only from one source, from the Creator.

S. We have to ask the Creator for courage to bestow?

R. Of course, or elsewhere will we have it from?

S. The ten, the society that is the Arvut is it not?

R. Together with them you will attain it.

S. So the whole ten has to ask for courage?

R. It is certainly missing for the ten, yes. Through the ten we receive. A person cannot receive alone, he does not have the vessel. He connects to others, all together, turn to the Creator, ask, and receive.

19. S. (30:36) Can we say that the feeling of the exile starts when we feel that we cannot enter with the friends into mutual guarantee?

R. Yes.

20. S. (30:56) Women and children, that you can't disclose it to them, what does it mean in our desires?

R. That in each and every one of us there is a small world, meaning that we have different desires so the desires in a person called women, children, small ones, youth, servants, all those desires we are not allowed to disclose what the work in order to bestow is. Rather we need to grow those desires, develop them until those desires come to the true basic desires and then accordingly perform corrections and fillings in them.

S. So can we recognize what is in me?

R. You do what you can, and you will discover, you will reveal and later you will sort your desires to these and those.

S. Exactly what I can do in order to implement the Arvut, the mutual guarantee, does that mean, we are speaking about a constant connection to hold onto to make the efforts to be in contact with the ten?

R. As much as you are capable, yes.

S. If one of the friends could not be in connection.

R. He can also be in connection and bestowal in Arvut if he implements according to the conditions that the Creator gave to him then he can implement correctly.

21. S. (33:12) A man's responsibility to the ten is to correct as Arvut?

R. The Arvut of a person in the ten is to come to love of friends, which includes bestowal to everyone and through them to bestow to all the people in the world and through them bestowal to the Creator.

22. S. (33:45) What is the difference between not saying something to disclosing something that is blocked?

R. Try to come from love to each and every friend and then from that love if you overcome then you will barely ever err.

23. S. (34:19) Should a person think of the Arvut of the friends that they will be in Arvut towards him, or should he think only of how he can be in mutual guarantee towards them?

R. I don't understand.

S. Should a person think if their friends are in mutual guarantee to him? If the friends are in mutual guarantee towards him on their behalf or should I only think about him towards them?

R. If we agree that we are a group then I need as much as I can to support my ten, my group so that they will feel the mutual guarantee and advance with it.

S. For me yes, but should I feel their Arvut towards me or is that not important?

R. You must be certain that they are with Arvut behind you. Yes. Because eventually the Creator is the one that sustains the mutual guarantee, and it is not that the friends can supply something towards you. Rather, they only give the vessel, but the authority of the vessel is given by him.

24. S. (36:07) The first time I paid attention he is talking about a reward from the work about the giving and reward of the holy nation and then he says to elaborate on the unpleasantness of the adhesion.

R. He's talking about after the fact that of 20 years or more of learning he finally sees something.

S. So when do you feel adhesion with the Creator if you could give us a hint, what do we feel?

R. I cannot explain to you, from where should I share such things, from what I understand a bit. Dvekut is the highest degree that a person can attain as by this he becomes one with the Creator.

S. Like you told me yesterday what you feel about the war you said what are you talking about I don't feel anything is that part of being adhered to the Creator that you did not feel war?

R. I have nothing to explain to you, each needs to try to understand according to how his heart is capable.

25. S. (38:) About this adhesion, this adhesion with the Creator to accept this extreme condition it says to completely detach from ourselves from any worldly possessions or whatever, how can we do this how can you accept this extreme condition and combined it with letting loose every form of personal?

R. I do not understand what you are talking about. I can be the bank manager and love drawing things to paint, I'm a painter and something else and together with that I can be in adhesion with the Creator. Well?

S. How do we make this combination?

R. I cannot explain it, but it is possible because a person needs to express his attitude to reality in that which the Creator gave him. Kabbalists usually express it in music Niguns, in melodies there were also those among them that wrote rhymes, songs, poetry, certainly they could have done it through a painting or drawing and more. Why not? All that a person has in him he can do it in order to bestow contentment to the Creator in all sorts of ways. There is no prohibition for that. Only for your heart to be able to pour your emotions in the correct way through the world to the Creator. That is it.
