Part 3: Everything is Obtained By the Power of Prayer – Selected Excerpts from the Sources

Reader: Today, we begin a new item in our studies, Everything is Obtained By the Power of Prayer. Selected excerpts from the sources, Everything is Obtained By the Power of Prayer. You can find this compilation in the study materials tab in the Arvut platform. So, Excerpt Number One, Everything is Obtained By the Power of Prayer, Baal HaSulam writes in Letter 57.

Reading: (00:32) 1. Baal HaSulam, Letter No. 57 – Twice.

Everything, small or great, is obtained only by the power of prayer. All the labor and work to which we are obliged are only to discover our lack of strength and our lowliness—that we are unfit for anything by our own strength—for then we can pour out a wholehearted prayer before Him.

We could argue about this, "So I can decide that I am unfit for anything, and why all the labor and exertion?" However, there is a natural law that there is none so wise as the experienced, and before one tries to actually do all he can do, he is utterly incapable of arriving at true lowliness, to the real extent, as said above.

This is why we must toil in Kedusha [holiness] and purity, as it is written, "Whatever you find that your hand can do by your strength, that do," and understand this for it is true and deep.

I revealed this truth to you only so you would not weaken or give up on mercy. Although you do not see anything, for even when the measure of labor is complete, it is the time of prayer, but until then, believe in our sages: "I did not labor and found, do not believe."

When the measure is full, your prayer will be complete and the Creator will grant generously, as our sages instructed us, "I labored and found, believe," for one is unfit for a prayer prior to this, and the Creator hears a prayer.

M. Laitman: Questions, please.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (03:55) What is the difference between exertion and prayer, if all of our work is in prayer?

M. Laitman: The prayer itself is exertion; it requires exertion, labor. Before that, when I approach the prayer, I need to arrange the prayer, this package. I want to say, what is it that I feel, what, as a result of that, I'm asking for. The prayer is something that remains with a question mark, a request at the end. There is no written symbol for a request, but when a person does that, then he does show his request. So, I want to receive at the end of the prayer that the Creator will accept it as a question and will give an answer to it.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (05:41) What is the role of the actions that we perform with hands and feet? How do they benefit the prayer?

M. Laitman: We want, by these actions, to give what we say in our mouth more power – to put ourselves into it. And then we have more connections, more devotion to the Creator with our words that we say; and from that comes the power of the prayer.

Student: And in the request, he writes there that a person has to make an effort to ask as best as he can. Now, in the request, I often need to perform actions. You have this joke about the person who wanted to always win the lottery, and in the end, the Creator asked him, “Did you fill out a card? Did you buy a ticket? So, how to relate correctly to the actions we have to perform in order to enhance the prayer?

M. Laitman: We should relate strongly, in the right way, to how we turn to the Creator, so that He will arrange for us forces and understanding, so that we can demand from Him, ask of Him that He will be revealed. And that from His revelation, we will understand what is it that we truly want because we can catch ourselves in that we don't feel, we don't understand what we are asking for. And after we ask in a complete manner in the mind and in the heart, then out of that, we reach a complete prayer. And then we can raise to the Creator words that He wrote through his students, through people who are bigger than us.

Student: Regarding the requests that we make, sometimes the requests, well, you want to ask powerfully, and you fail. Let's say the power of your request is from 1 to 10, it's 3. So, how to amplify the power of the request?

M. Laitman: It's according to the person's feeling. The person should feel that he must explode the iron partition that exists between him and the Creator. And by that, obligate the Creator. And then the Creator will give him an answer.

Student: If we reach that state where we obligate the Creator to reply, the force of the request has to be very high, maximum.

M. Laitman: Yes?

Student: So, if a person wants, he has a request, he wants something, but it's not powerful yet, and he wants it to be more intense, but he fails to make it that way. How can he still amplify it?

M. Laitman: So, if he still feels that he's not crying out from within, from his heart, then it's not yet a true request. And he needs more and more, maybe to check what else to add to that initial request so that it will grow.

Student: What does it mean to add to the request, what does he need to add?

M. Laitman: To make the request such that the Creator will not – how shall I put it? That the Creator will not be able not to pay attention to you, and He will certainly fill your request.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (11:00) You said that we find ourselves sometimes, we find that we don't understand what we ask for. Why don't we understand, what don't we feel?

M. Laitman: The subject for which we're praying.

Student: But the desire is there.

M. Laitman: The desire is something that also moves around, comes, and goes. And we are not capable of measuring our desires, according to the law. That we are standing opposite the Creator with an opposite garment than the Creator. This is why we don't feel the Creator, we only feel the garment, the clothing, this is closer to us. And we only hope that through these prayers that we raise – especially in the morning lesson – that through these prayers, the Creator will open up an opening for us. And we will enter.
