1. Rav’s Introduction: We are continuing with the study of the perception of reality. I think that today we should finish with it, and if we have some time left, we will even approach part one of TES. We will start to see how we can study the reality that Kabbalists tell us about already in a scholarly way, so that we can enter it in the right way and we try to imagine it in the right way, to depict it according to the explanation of the words, and the definitions, and the language. That’s the most important thing, that we will understand correctly what they are saying, not intellectually, scholarly, but rather, we will get into it with our feelings, with our senses. So, this is why...well let us finish this introduction to the study and then we will approach the study itself today or tomorrow. You will be able to ask questions in order to understand each and every day better, and also from greater distance to greater proximity. This is how it is usually for us. With greater vessels we have greater coarseness and a greater feeling of distance, but accordingly, if we correct it by coming closer to each other, then we understand to a greater depth and more correctly, the spiritual reality. That is, the fact that we feel in the beginning of the study that we are not related to it, not related to connection, not related to the correct perception of reality. This is actually true. By that, we get new Kelim. It’s a result of the new coarseness that is revealed to us as a result of the shattering of the vessels of Adam HaRishon. We understand it. Each and every day, in a proportional way, in small portions, step-by-step, we get closer to connecting the negative state to the positive state. This is how we connect the darkness to the light. Then we have before us the right advancement towards seeing the true reality that comprises two opposite discernments, opposite qualities, and we will understand them, feel them, and connect them together. So, this is how it is. Therefore, the Wisdom of Kabbalah, or the Torah, or the Creator, even though He’s turning to everyone and his intention is for everyone to discover in the correct form by adhesion between them and adhesion to him, the true reality, the world of Ein Sof, in the meantime, it is only a handful people out of the whole of humanity. These are special souls that are coming closer to this willingly, and we are amongst them.

Excerpt 13 (04:27-05:46)

2. A person should understand that, actually, whatever he is seeing, he is seeing before him the broken vessel, and he is responsible for this vessel which he is seeing, and he needs to bring this vessel through gradual corrections to a single complete vessel where everyone depends on everyone, each one depends on everyone. This is how he will discover a kli, a vessel, called Adam, similar to the Creator, and in it, he will feel the revelation of the Creator to a single created being, which is really him, himself, and all the others that he sees, he will bring them closer, so much so that they will be all in his heart and he will not feel that there is anything that is disconnected from him. Actually, he is the world. As it says, “man is a small world”. He will feel himself responsible for the entire world. That is, if he feels that there are vessels, meaning people, that are outside of him, that he does not feel them as standing in his heart, he is only showing how much he needs to correct his heart in the meantime in order to connect all of them together. We now see how much the whole world, following the pandemic and wars and problems that are being revealed, is showing us, it's shattering more and more. There is nothing new under the sun. It is all revealed from the state that was ready in advance. However, it is becoming revealed more and more each and every day, how much the world is broken, back from that very first action where the Creator broke the vessel that he created. We only need to try to connect this vessel through our attitude that we all want to connect above our ego, through the upper force, so the Creator would rule over all the forces that are opposite to him, and in such a way, the correction will come. We need to try to discover, reveal, the desire for connection between us, even though it is maybe becoming harder each and every day. By trying to connect, there specifically, we discover the force that is uniting us, which is the Creator. We will also discover the spiritual world, which is all of us connected together, that way we will have unity as one man in one heart. This is all ahead of us. Therefore, this intention must be first of all during the study, because through the study, if we try to get closer to each other, we draw the reforming light, the surrounding light, and out of the fact that it is surrounding us, it also enters into us, it corrects us. We, on one hand, discover ourselves as even farther away from each other; on the other hand, we discover ourselves in the opposite way, connected to each other. That way, through such states of distancing and closeness, distancing and closeness, that intensify, become greater and greater; that way, we will connect. The feeling of darkness will be greater and a feeling of light against that will be greater, intermittently. This is how we correct ourselves. This is why we should get used to states that change. Each and every day, even several times a day, they change, and we need to be happy, actually, about the fact that the Creator is orchestrating and turning those states for us from good to bad, so that we will turn it from bad to good, And again, the Creator will add into it the will to receive, and again we will feel in it darkness and bad, and once again we will pray, and we will try between us to get the closer and to ask of him out of our effort that He will make light instead of darkness. Light is connection, light of bestowal. This is how we will advance. Therefore, our whole work is opposite the Creator. Let's not forget that there is none else besides him and he is the one who is separating between us, so that each time we will turn to him and ask for connection between us. That way through intensifying connection, we will discover our degrees towards greater and greater corrections, until we will feel the spiritual essence in the darkness as well as in the light, and through those changes we will raise ourselves above this corporeal world so that these discernments that we will we feel--spiritual discernments, darkness, and light, separation and connection--they will be for us as discernments of our true states. We will start to feel a different reality, where separation and connection are darkness and light. This is what will be important for us and this is what we will pay attention to. That is, to what extent we are in a process of the correction of the general broken kli. We will be able to add to it more and more people from the world, so that they should all know me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, as it says, and my house shall be called the house of prayer to all Nations. That is, that we will pull, draw and give an example to everyone of how we connect into a single vessel, a single action. This will all be as a result of us being focused, concentrated, together. Through the study we draw the light, and each time it is only towards connection, in which, more and more, we discover our spiritual state.

3. S. (13:25) I heard you say that when we correct this word, this world will disappear. What does that mean? And what does it mean to attain the truth Baal HaSulam speaks of? I’ll always feel the same world.

R. It is not that you won't feel it. Gradually, gradually, the world means whatever you feel in your vessels. If your vessels change, then you will also feel the world is changing. There is a difference between the world that a small child feels, or an undeveloped person versus a developed person. The more a person develops, he feels the causes, the elements, he feels more components of the world. This is how it is for us. Gradually, you will feel that in the world, in your reality, there are forces that are operating. New forces, forces of reception and bestowal, and they determine for you the perception of reality. Then the reality that will be composed of such forces will seem different to you. It is not that instead of this world you will feel a different reality; you will feel a different reality as a system of forces that is operating the current reality, and also it is ruling it, controlling it. Therefore, bit by bit, you will shift to a state where your attention will be directed at the forces that are operating, the forces that are establishing for you your perception of reality. This way, you will see it. We can't really explain it. It is only to the extent that we will connect and rise above our ego. It is something that I cannot really explain because it has to do with perception. But we will talk about it, and then we will be able to explain it according to our sensation of it. We will try. If we will keep what the Kabbalists recommend to us, it will happen quickly.

4. S. (16:08) I am responsible for the Kli that I discover, what does it mean?

R. The vessel I need to open up for the reception of the upper light for the reception of the upper world is a will to bestow, I don’t have a will to bestow, I can only have an intention to bestow if I will receive the upper influence from the Creator, from the upper light then it might be if so that I will have an intention to bestow which is something I cannot understand or feel right now. It is an upper force that enters into me, into my will to receive it does not change my will to receive into a bestower instead, of one desire and the opposite desire but rather it adds to my will to receive the intention to bestow and then I work with myself as though I am a force of bestowal rather than a force of reception by changing my intention the reason, the purpose of the goal will change. I will use my elements, the forces of my ego, I will use it for giving for connection, for love. Here I need to check what I am doing this for? Am I doing it in order to nevertheless reach some personal gain in order to receive, bestowing in order to receive or will his be truly bestowing in order to bestow and later on receiving in order to bestow which is already things that are already very advanced?

S. How can we use our desire to receive in order to bestow?

R. We get over our egoistic desire the influence of the light which is the opposite of our ego and then we begin to feel out of our egoistic desire unpleasantness and we do not know what to do with ourselves and with our lives. Where are we drawn to, what is going on because the light that influences and the desire, we have inside of us are opposites. This oppositeness in between them is what awaken in us a feeling of discomfort. We begin to suffer. I don't know what I am living for, why I am alive, where am I living, what is it that they want from me. I am truly in a state of helplessness and then comes the wisdom of Kabbalah and it explains to us how I built. Why am I built in such way, what is this whole reality that I see before me? All kinds of people the still, vegetative, animate and people, what is all of this and what is it for? They explain that I see this inside of me we talked about this yesterday also, that I see this inside of my will to receive that my will to receive is divided into 4 degrees of coarseness, from the smallest desire in which I see the form of the still, this whole universe and also whatever we see on the face of the earth. Then the vegetative and then the animate and the last highest degree is the speaking degree and those are the 4 degrees in my will to receive, my desire to enjoy. In all of these degrees I feel all kinds of phenomena and all in all these phenomena are called the sum total of the phenomena is called my world and they explain to me that I feel such phenomena I can actually know why that is meaning why do I exist in what state do I exist, why do I feel perceive the reality in which I exist in in such a way. What is the need for such a perception of reality in order to reach a feeling of its source, the upper force? I can use that feeling of reality in a directed way out of me so I can use everything that I have whatever I perceive which is called my world that I perceive it and I arrange it in a way that I perceive it and arrange it in such a way that I see a movie that I am projecting this movie and this is the revelation of the Creator for the created beings in this world, which is the goal of the wisdom. This is what the method is about and I don't need this word animal but I can use it to reveal the upper force and I start to be using this world and also the attainment of the Creator in order to further and further come closer and connect with him. It doesn't matter. The word Olam comes from concealment being hidden. These are the images, forms, the forces that created in me this form of the world. I better and better learn how to use it so instead of them I can establish the Creator and then the world disappears all together and there is no reality to it and this means that I reached the world of Ein Sof and it is only a single for 1 unique and unified there is none else besides him, he exists, he operates through the whole reality and I need to reach a state where I do discover that this is so.

S. It's turns out that all my desires every desire if I can use them correctly means that using the Creator?

R. Yes about for that I need to know if I use them correctly use correctly everything that is a revealed it to me so the Sages explain how to do this through the connection between us.

S. And that here begins the problem to diagnose how to use them correctly, these desires?

R. Of course, this is a big problem how to use everything that is revealed because it is a revealed in the opposite way it is revealed in desire to receive, we are created beings and we exist in the opposite of desire compared to the Creator because otherwise we would not be created beings. If we existed in the same quality as the Creator, we would simply be included within him but we exist in the opposite quality to him. Therefore, we have to imagine or create different states, how to reach resembling the Creator. Adam means being similar to the Creator so how can we turn fruit from an animal to be a human how to get the qualities that is similar to the Creator.

S. So how is a desire revealed and despite the desire to connect with the difference with the Creator and everyone's said that enable meant I start to use the desired event part of it connect to the Creator?

R. We will talk about it gradually, don't jump ahead we have to work in the way we are working and it to try every day to chew and swallow the lesson and truly use it to change to change ourselves each and every day are we in a state there in the 10 we try to take yet another step forward, inwards, towards the connection between us. This is actually our goal and besides that it is very important for us that we exist in a great world Kli and we have a connection between us and maybe not so much in the meantime because of the language is because of the distance between the world groups which the Creator created on purpose. Of course, that's this, we already realize that this is our goal, that we need to reach a state of internal closeness between us and where we feel the opposite, some rejection, repulsion, suspicion, distrust, all kinds of influences from our history, geography, all kinds of things that exist between Nations. This is all arranged for us from the Creator so by overcoming it being as close as possible towards the goal by appreciating the goal more than the present reality. By that we are actually performing a correction in the world and this is the last generation. We are the last generation and we have to do this according to that we will truly reach the truthful world we will feel what is happening here.

S. It turns out that using anything that is revealed to us but it confuses us in our state so it just says unite to unite above that, with the world Kli and the 10 and that it?

R. Love covers all crimes this is the rule whatever is revealed it doesn't matter what love, the connection has to be above it. This is actually what the Creator is demanding from all of us. This is right if we are following our selfish ego then we truly destroy the connection between us and our connection to the Creator. The Creator is simply the point in which we all connect if we all connect between is to the same extent, we get closer to him.

5. S. (28:58) In the excerpt, it says that “a person, himself, is called creation,” meaning he, himself. What does this mean and why “he, himself?”

R. This pertains to the perception of reality. It is not simple to understand but we will discover that if I yearn to connect within me, the entire world, and I realize that all the parts of the world are, all in all, the degrees of aleph, bet, gimel, da’at (1, 2, 3, 4) of reality which are all perceived in me, in the degrees of my ego, the degrees of my desire, aleph, bet, gimel da’at -- it turns out that I have to connect them and aim them all to the Creator. To connect them together means that I have to love everybody, everybody who is in the world and bring them to the general love, general connection, well, in the end this is the correction, this is the end of correction, Gmar Tikkun, and along the way we will understand why we have the entire universe with all of its explosions and the galaxies, and all the grand actions and the planet Earth which is exploding from all this hatred and oppositeness that is revealed between the different forces of nature, etc. Along the way, we will discover it and also discover how much we can pacify these forces and bring them to connection specifically out of the fact that the opposite forms which become revealed.

6. S. (31:01) What exactly are we asking for when we are praying for the whole world so we are praying for the whole Shechina? Is it just playing for others? Is it enough to pray for holy Shechina when we pray for others? What do we ask for, exactly?

R. We want to bring the whole of reality which is revealed entirely inside my desire. Inside of my desire is where I discovered the world, so I want that my desire will be aimed only in a single direction to discover in it it's source, the Creator. And I reach this by connecting all the parts of reality as much as they are contradictory, opposite, I want to connect to them together. I want to acquire a special force from the Creator, the light of Hassidim, and then we won't see all of these opposite qualities. We will see them supporting each other. As much as they are opposite, bit by bit, we will see how much this and that, and this and that -- these opposite things, how much they are operating together, supporting each other. It’s like in technology and everything, the more complex it is, the more developed it is. The more complex it is, it can also express the depth of its internality, its ability to do some work. This is how we see it, if something is simple, it is simple but something that is complex is more developed. Just like from a single cell, the human body develops. Although later it becomes very complex but it develops out of a single cell and through its complexity, it can execute many different actions.

7. S. (33:31) How can we become like the Creator when we are constantly falling back into the desire to receive?

R. We rise by trying to connect and become like the Creator. We reach some state and then we fall to a worse state than before. We rise to plus 1 then we fall to minus 2, the separation between us. Then we are in darkness, in helplessness, we’re angry at each other. And then we try to connect and overcome it and we reach plus 2. Then we fall to minus 3. We feel the recognition of evil, the recognition of evil is that besides the evil we also feel where it comes from. It’s from the Creator who is revealing to us even more will to receive which has been prepared by the shattering. We start connecting between us and out of the efforts to connect, we pray that the Creator will connect between us and then we reach plus 3 then we get a fall to minus 4. This is how we are constantly like on a seesaw goes up and down, up and down. And the more we advance, we have greater ascents and greater descents. This is why it says, ‘he who is greater than his friend, his inclination is greater.’

8. S. (35:53) What is the meaning of ‘praying for his contemporaries’? How can we make this prayer happen to reach the mercy of the Creator?

R. ‘His contemporaries’ mean all those people who I see before me existing in this world, in our time. I see them that they are really the components of my spiritual vessel and I need to pray for all these vessels. That they will reach connection between them, a gradual connection, until the Creator will be able to be revealed in all of those. This is considered that we are working on the construction of the Shechina, on the revelation of Shechina, this is it.

9. S. (36:52) The revelation of the Creator is showing us a new vessel, a new revelation of the Shechina. Is it a new kli that we have to fill with unity?

R. Yes.

10. S. (37: What does it mean to ‘chewing the materials? I can understand that I can do it personally but what should it look like? How is this related to the connection in the 10, to our meetings?

R. I understand you. We all understand you that it is more comfortable to sit at home, to hear the lessons and live each and every day comfortably in a good way. But if we don't practically connect together more and more in our hearts against our rejection, the mutual rejection, then we have a big problem. We are not actualizing this connection between us. Until we begin to assemble within us all the forces of rejection and against them all the forces of connection, so much so that they will be one against the other and they will bring us this parameter of the power of the Kli from minus to plus, that it will be so great between the darkness and the light that we will start to feel there spiritual phenomena.

S. How to do this in the workshops, in the Zoom, itself? How do we do the action you just said because that is our time when we are together of feeling this during our time together?

R. It shouldn't depend on if we are physically or virtually connected together but rather it should be such that everybody imagines to himself that the spiritual vessel where he is yearning for revelation of spirituality, it exists on the connection between the friends. This is the problem that we need to start from this world from the lowest degree, which is outside of spirituality and extend this, continue this to spirituality. To discover in the connection between us also the upper forces, which we call the forces of bestowal. Then through the connection and intensifying the mutual forces of bestowal between us, we will bring it to a state where we start to feel degrees of the revelation of the Creator inside these connections.

S. How do we come to this physically, right now in the 10? I mean that from the lowest level, from the corporal level, how can we start this?

R. Well, we have to start from that. Where is the connection between us? How much do we suffer without the connection? How much are we concerned that we would have it? But it is not a connection that I feel your body, no. It means feeling each other's desires, the heart is called the desire. So as much as we are connected in our hearts, in our desire so they would become a single desire towards the Creator. If we would connect all of our hearts in the 10 into a single heart, a single desire, as one man in one heart, and we want in this desire to discover the upper force, the Creator. Then we start to discover Him, we will demand His revelation, for Him to correct the connection between us so we will be congruent, suitable for His revelation.

S. Basically we have two devices: one, during the zoom meeting we read materials from the lesson, and the other device we have is the workshop, so what is the best to do? Combine these things or just parts from the lesson?

R. Always combine them together. There's no such thing that now we study some wisdom and later on we do something. No, we care constantly thinking about only one thing -- how to connect our desire so the Creator will be revealed in them. And we are doing it in order to try to do it, in order to make Him happy, this is called ‘in order to bestow.’

11. S. (42:05) You said we will learn to balance the force of nature, to bring them to connection. Is this the main reason for natural phenomena, our relations?

R. Only that, nothing else. It depends only on the relations between us. We need to discover, reveal and not to be ashamed or afraid of the fact that all kinds of disturbances will be revealed. We actually want to reveal these disturbances, to ask the Creator to correct them. By this, we will have a connection with the Creator. If I just connect to Him, I have no connection to Him. If I want to connect with the friends and I discovered that I cannot, out of this I turn to the Creator, then I will have a connection with the Creator because I have revelation of the coarseness and the revelation of the desire by which I want to overcome it. Then I have what to turn to the Creator with, because what I discover in the broken connection between us it’s a memory record, Reshimo, which is revealed out of the shattering. And then I turn to the Creator to correct this memory record, Reshimo, because it is possible to correct a record from the shattering only through the reforming light, so I have to turn to the Creator with this. If I am not turning to the Creator from such a state, that I say, ‘I want to connect but I am not capable of connecting to the friends, so you have to help me in that.’ If I don't turn to Him in such a way then He does not respond to anything else, because according to the order of corrections, this is the only thing that I have to discover. This is why the Creator reveals between us problems, confrontations, rejections, all kinds of things. But we are not waking up these things enough in our appeals to Him. The Creator wants to see only our deficiencies related to connections then He will happily correct them. But if we just cry out to the Creator, we discover in our hearts that each just wants some individual advancement, this is the egoist that is revealed in each and every one. Actually, we are opposite, we are entering states that are even further away from the Creator. Some leave, some quit the path, and it is not that we should despair from the path but they have to be despaired of themselves -- that we are not realizing the advice of the Kabbalists.

12. S. (45:18) You said that connection is actually a connection between the desires of the friends in the 10. I would like to advance myself and the 10 to a state where we connect our desires but I can’t even imagine what connection in the desires looks like? Can you help me?

R. Keep going. There is nothing more to say. This is not a question, just keep going, continue.

Excerpt 14 (45:59 - 47:09)

13. R. (47:11) We have to try to accept reality this way but gradually. We cannot explain this openly in the right way, yet. Otherwise, we will only get confused with the perception of reality and start building all kinds of theories and the relationships. But bit by bit it has to be revealed that all in all there is only one force operating. If we try, gradually, to discover that around us all sorts of forces are operating to bring us to connection, in favor or against but always towards connection, then we can progress correctly.

14. S. (48:10) How does this new reality coincide with the fact that we speak so many different languages?

R. The different languages come from the shattering of the kli from Babylon. This was the confusion and mixture of the languages is the result of how much we are opposite to each other so everybody has a different expression, external or internal expression. So, the more we come together, come closer to each other, we start understanding each other through the heart, then we move from this language of branches to the spiritual branches and then to the sources, to one common language. We will learn how this is built, all of that is in the kli of Adam HaRishon. So, in the meantime, we cannot do anything about it, we have to work the way it is, as a result of the shattering.

15. S. (49:52) Does the success in the connection of the hearts come from the efforts trying to awaken each other?

R. The concern has to be only for the friends as much as I try to awaken them up, basically this is another part, another piece of my spiritual success.

16. S. (50:22) The impression I get that out of our methodical work in the 10 following the schedule, these memory records, Reshimot, that are awakening even in my relation to my wife, the records are revealed even stronger with her than in the relation with each other in the 10, is this correct?

R. This is very personal. It might be, it might not be -- not necessary. There will be times like this and times like that, and the things will go in different directions.

17. S. (51:22) You said that disturbances will be revealed and this is our excuse to turn the Creator all the time especially during the lesson. What does it mean that the Creator is helping us? Right now, I want to connect to the friends, to turn to Him to help me connect to the friends. What does it mean that He helps?

R. The fact that you say that you want to connect to the friends does not mean anything. Everybody can say that. You can also have some tape recorder repeating this and a baby can learn how to say such words, an adult as well as a great Kabbalist so saying this isn’t enough. If the result of the effort is pain, that you succeed or don't succeed, and with all of this, you can turn to the Creator. But simply saying without your emotional impression from the efforts, from the labor, that you come with the necessary quota of exertion which becomes a complete exertion, because otherwise the Creator does not answer. It has to come from the effort.

S. But we do make efforts, all the time. In the lessons we try to incorporate in the friends but they disconnect you, again, through you all kinds of disturbances and you ask to be brought back. But it’s not so clear where He is in this game. Where is the Creator’s help manifested?

R. You certainly cannot see this, now, cannot understand it, right now. Also, why during the lesson? Outside of the lesson you don't make efforts to be connected in your heart with the friends and with the Creator? As it said ‘Israel, the light and the Creator are one. You, the group and the Creator have to be one, so it is not necessarily only during the lesson. The lesson is only 2 1/2 hours of your day, what about the other hours? You have to try to always be in this feeling and effort.

S. We do try during the day to maximally be inside of this. All the time, there is also an appeal to the Creator but at the same time, we are saying that this connection is the reason, the excuse to turn to Him with a request, but how exactly does He answer?

R. The Creator always answers. He does not need to enter you or make changes in your thoughts, desires, He is there, operating. Even when you want and you pray as if you do and try, He is always present. You cannot separate the Creator and try to discover Him in this deterministic way that you are thinking about: I know do something for the Creator and this is the response He sends back. He does not work that way. You have to do what you have to do, and even within your desires, you begin to feel changes and you'll discover that they all come from the Creator.

18. S. (55:16) I understand that the Creator is in the connection between us and also in the center of the 10. If I don’t feel I can come to the right connection, where should I look for the Creator?

R. You have to look for Him at the center of the 10, specifically in the center of the 10. There you have to find the Creator, there is no other place.

19. S. (55:56) How can we turn the feeling of emptiness because of lack of connection and light, the feeling of unpleasantness, which is an egoistic feeling, that we cannot bestow to the Creator?

R. I went through this path for a bit. I will tell you, first of all, persistence. Persistence which means we must not forget where we are and what process and try to realize this process as much as possible in our life in a practical way. Meaning to learn to reconnect with the friends, be under their influence as much as possible. This already depends upon the states that the Creator sets up for each and every one. There is nothing more to say as it is already in front of you. Complain only to yourself. You can raise all of your complaints to the Creator but, trust me, there is nothing to turn to Him with in this case. He gave you everything. If you ask then you need to be asking one thing from Him, ‘I am doing this and this and that I am trying to do this and this and that. I want to succeed in these things, help me. Give me the power to succeed in actions of connections and bestowal, and nothing else.’ Because we don't need anything else to correct our vessel. I want to connect everyone together to a single heart and in that single heart, I want to turn to You so that You will fulfill this heart and be revealed in that heart. Because by that, we bring Him contentment, this is what He is expecting. So, we just need to discover our hearts, connect them together as much as possible, to see if we can or not it -- actually doesn't matter we try to connect. From this we turn to the Creator to help us to connect. If the Creator helps us to connect and the connection is correct, He will appear there.

20. S. (58:35) Does the Creator give after the prayer or before the prayer? Does the Creator only give once we have a prayer and He matches it?

R. I don't know to what extent this matches your prayer but what we receive in each and every moment, we always receive it according to what our heart instinctively aims at the Creator. Each and every one's heart is aimed at the Creator. This comes to us from the shattering from our connection with the upper force and we need to correct it. To the extent that we are able to connect the hearts in the right way but the fact that it happens to begin with like that without our involvement is incorrect. It all demands for us to fix, arrange our broken vessels in the correct way.

21. S. (01:00:16) Can we say that a key point in this process is when I can already justify everything as a good who does good or is when I work with the ten to such an extent that I start to see through them that everything is the good who does good, meaning I don't even need to search for identification as our connection already shows it?

R. Yes, only inside the connection do we discover this force of the good that does good, that according to my vessel, they are revealed.

22. S. (01:01:00) What is the right prayer really to pray for the friends' spirituality, whatever I see before me?

R. The right prayer is that it can work in the Creator to do actions toward us, that is the right prayer. That is through the friends, through the common heart in order to bestow and all of that, there are many words, but it has to come of course from our common desire then to the Creator and only towards one goal, to build us in resemblance to him because that is his desire.

23. S. (01:01:58) We can diagnose this from the opposite side, for example whatever is happening to us after the prayer is a result of the friends’ prayers, so according to the results we can diagnose the prayer?

R. We can't do that because we are still not corrected. We still don't understand and feel the forces of bestowal and therefore it is difficult for us. We need to believe that in each and every moment what is in us is what we get from the Creator and then we only have one work to do, from us towards him, from our increasing connection towards him. We want to depict him as the center of our connection, not that he is somewhere over there, he is at the center of our connection and if we don't try to build the center of connection between us then we are not turning to the Creator. This is very important.

24. S. (01:03:15) When we write the prayer and raise it to the Creator, for example give us the strength to love the friends, the answer comes in opposites, lack of forces or disunity with the Creator and as a response we get the complete opposite and this happens many times, often. Then you start thinking, is this that my appeal to the Creator is incorrect that I received the opposite or is this correct and this is how it needs to be?

R. The Creator reveals to you how far you still are from being connected to him, meaning you are giving an answer for what you're asking and he is showing you where you still need to correct yourself. The answer is clear on the spot as from the Creator there's always an answer on the spot, the question is how we understand the answer and how can we use it, that depends upon us. We need to connect in the 10 and try to discuss this, what do you get from the Creator after you raise the prayer and how do we work with it? This has to be the topic.

S. It turns out that if the answer of the Creator comes as a good state, a positive state, a feeling of connection with the friends and the love of friends it turns out that our work has been done and correction happened.

R. This is already a problem, how do we receive and how do we decipher what we can feel, how much it comes from the Creator and how much we understand it and how we can respond to it, it is not simple. We need to start working with it regularly, that we are all connected, we all want to turn to the Creator. We always want to feel the response from the Creator, basically between us to talk about it, to discuss it. Then try to see how we respond to that because we are as one man and one heart in that work. Let's try to start working this way. Practically this is the work in practicality, let's say a few times today we are connecting between us talking about how we are connected to each other, how we can turn to the Creator with our state? What are we expecting him to do? Let us establish the MAN and MAD, the way we think about it, that it will be clear to us from this, our address to the Creator will be that not that one turns however he wants to the Creator but let us agree on how we do this and what are we asking for, that we will be as one man and one heart. These sentences that we are building the kind of request, that it is all coming from one heart, let us try to do this today.

25. S. (01:07:39) Do we use the feeling of connection as a reward?

R. It is not the whole reward, the reward is that we will be certain that we are bringing contentment to the Creator.

Excerpt 15 (01:08:07- 01:09:47) twice

26. S. (01:09:51) Sometimes it seems as though besides the words that there is nothing, can you aim our thought a little bit? What actually happens when we say words to each other, if we say a truth or we say a lie, how do we relate all of these things?

R. I can't explain these for now because our words don't communicate our feelings and our feelings, also what we feel are the interior of our heart that we don't feel. Meaning that one doesn't understand one's heart. So we have to just work with what we have as much as possible with our inspection, that if I say something that I am trying to establish it in a truthful way as much as I understand, but more than that it will be revealed in each and every state and in each and every degree of what is true on one degree will be false on the higher degree and on that degree you will find a new truth and so on. Meaning our ascent through the degrees is always by replacing the truth with false in the upper one and then in the upper of the upper one and so on.

27. S. (01:11:31) This limit when I play with my friends or when I actually lie to them?

R. I can't say, you need to have an earnest heart towards the friends and then if not then you are just not connected to them, there is no spirituality. Spirituality is measured at least by your degree, how much you try to be open or that you know that you can't be open and you are sorry about it and you are making an effort. Meaning this needs to be the work of the heart.

28. S. (01:12:40) What kind of lying are we talking about to the creator. What does it mean to lie to the Creator?

R. You need to discover these things yourselves; how much are your earnest, how much are you lying to yourselves, lying to the friends, or this is a lie that is beneficial, that you are all egoist and no one can really think well of the others and that you know that this is how it is to begin with and this is what the Kabbalists write but with it you are trying to advance. Our attempts are always on top of the faults and the increasing ego, one who is greater than his friend, his inclination is greater than himself. When we rise and rise our ascent is always on top of a greater ego in quality and quantity. Even though and despite that we are trying to rise above it and we understand the matter, the substance of each and every one and we have to help each and every one to rise above them matter, this is called one shall help his friend through example, to embrace and so on.

29. S. (01:14:32) What does it mean to sadden in the friends and by this sadden the creator? I

R. The more I try to be together with the friends towards the Creator, this is my correct action and if I can't be a partner with him, this is a problem that my friend is sorry and the Creator is sorry.

Excerpt 16 (01:15: 32 - 01:16:12)

30. R. Meaning we don't have the true reality of what we attain, what is really happening, but only how it appears in our qualities for now, so according to how broken our qualities are this is the form that we see.

S. (01:16:36) Why does the will to receive allow itself to feel bad? Why is it willing to get a bad feeling?

R. That is a good question. What we see is how it happened in creation because if there wasn't a bad feeling then the will to receive would never be able to change its state.

S. Yes, but that's on the side of the Creator but why does the desire itself even suffer this?

R. It doesn't bear it, it wants to escape it but it can't oh, the surrounding light holds it burying it in the right direction to achieve corrections.

S. Is it only one who has a point in the heart?

R. All of them have it but it's a question of whether it is apparent to them or not. All people in the world must achieve correction, ultimately. It depends upon them from there how much they are participating with that or not.

S. What is the difference between one who has the point in the heart and one who doesn't in terms of the recognition of suffering of this bad feeling?

R. So accordingly these are already levels of man's development. How much he understands the suffering and wants to correct it, too advanced by it. Some advance by running away from suffering and others advance along with the suffering and others are using the suffering. That is a difference.

S. The more a person succeeds in understanding or diagnosing precisely the suffering of whatever he feels that he actually distances him from scribing everything to the Creator because he is successfully explaining everything with some skill or some reason.

R. So we don't make any excuses. We want to bring all of the feelings, all of our lack of connection, we want to bring it to a place where we can correct it.

S. Yes, how can we take it because a person wants to understand what is going on with him to understand in his corporeal mind so how can we turn this into the correct spiritual advancement?

R. Is this what you are asking? Where do I get it from? The group needs to strengthen this field so that I feel that it comes through the 10 from the Creator and how do I need to respond to him in return. These are the ordinary matters and it all depends upon building the correct 10 towards the Creator, with the Creator as Israel, the light in the Creator as one, and build the line and always strengthen it further and further and if I fall from it then I fall into despair, into disorientation of where I am and that is a problem.

31. S. (01:20:15) A part of the work is to lie to the friend, to pretend that we always say that we should fake the situation. What does this mean if we are now saying that we shouldn't lie to the Creator? It says here that when one is lying to his friend he is lying to the creator or deceiving the creator.

R. Not deceiving the friend in showing him more advanced, better, spiritual states and by that I want to raise him. That doesn't mean that I deceive him, I am just making an effort on my part to awaken him towards a higher and more connected degree between us and the Creator. This is not a lie that I myself am awakening him, that I am in the states and I am awakening him. There is no fault in this. We can't advance in our present state, there is always Reshimot de Aviut and the Reshimot that comes from the higher degree. Dalet, Gimel, Bet and this is how we advance. I always need to awaken from my present state to a higher state.

32. S. (01:22:28) What he writes here is unclear. He says there is no change in godliness, which is the meaning of, I the Lord did not change. What does he mean by that?

R. He means that the upper light is in complete rest. He is not changing anything as one plan towards us that we will come to complete identification with him.

S. So if he says, "I the Lord did not change", I didn't change my HaVaYah so long as I did not discover him nothing happens, is this what he is writing?

R. I am telling you this influence of the bestowal from the Creator is complete, a spiritual state is complete it doesn't change, what changes is only all sorts of Reshimo within us that give us changes of our states. Let's say I feel something right now, this comes from the Reshimot that reveals to me the present state.

S. So how in the 10 can we discover if we are advancing? What I am asking you all the time, am I advancing or not advancing how can I feel it in our state?

R. You need to understand this only according to how much you understand you are connecting more.

S. Then we can connect tomorrow?

R. Somehow yes but in the meantime, you don't have any more discernments.

Excerpt 17 (01:27:22 - 01:28:39) twice

Excerpt 18 (01:28:50 - 01:29:40)

33. R. Meaning the light is in absolute rest. This means that it has only one quality, to benefit to bestow, to give, to do only good according to the vessel. This is the question of what is good according to the desire of the vessel or the desire of the light? According to the desire of the light and if the desire of the vessel is in contradiction with the desire of the light it feels as if the light is not doing good to the vessel. So, to do good to those creatures was decided in the Creator and what to do good. The fact that the creature was created in the opposite form and wants things that are opposite to the Creator, this is specifically so that he will uncover the qualities of the Creator he would like to acquire his qualities, to be like him and by that to reach adhesion, to be like him. From the beginning everything was set up so that the creature, the created being is opposite from the Creator.

34. S. (01:31:07) It is written that he who makes his friend sad, saddens the Creator and you said the good is with respect to the desire of the light?

R. You need to learn from the circle that the Creator and the friend are one in the same, equal. You can't relate badly to the friend and go to the Creator; it is like saying that behind every friend.

stands the Creator. The Creator simply clothes in such a garment called friend. There's no friends, there's no still vegetative and animate. The Creator wears such forms to give you an opportunity to grow each time more and more until you begin to discover behind all of those forms only him.

S. There is a sensation that to sadden the Creator he is going away.

R. No, those are your personal things.

35. S. (01:33:18) I think you gave us a task to try to reach the state of being as one man and one heart during the day, to try to establish a common MAN and MAD , here it says that different people attain different forms and see different shapes. What does this mean?

R. It means that we can never compare our inner impression of the world. We can never do this because no one can even express it, we can barely feel it properly, rather through our relationships, external relationships between one another, we have to build a web of connection between us called Shechina where we reveal the Creator the Shochen, the dweller inside the web, inside this Shechina.

S. What does it mean to talk between ourselves about this? If each one sees a different shape. How can we talk about it during the day?

R. In the connection we come to a state where the one common force is revealed between us. one common source.

S. Each one's description will be different in such a conversation?

R. So what? We are not similar to one another otherwise we would be one person. We would be one, the fact that we are different and remain different we connect between us in our intentions, in our inclination, our disposition.

S. What does it mean to reach the state of one man and one heart? How can we identify that it happened?

R. We have the same goal, we wish to discover the Creator and although the Creator is always different for each one personally and I can't measure the difference between the Creator that is portrayed by a friend versus by how he is portrayed in me in our intentions we connect. You are putting an equal sign in between the intention and the desire, in the desires we are always different, in our intentions we are always different because the intention is the result of the desire but as much as we can be each and every one of us towards connection and the Creator. We are all different.

36. S. (01:36:21) When he writes in the text that the light is in complete rest and there is no change it makes me think something is imprecise in my prayer. I'm always asking him to change to give me something to change in my vessels to help me find the relationship that my prayers seem to be wrong.

R. You can turn to the Creator with everything. When you feel your desires in your heart they are already directed at the Creator, this means each one prays all day long so each one wants something in our desire, that it is aimed at our root, which is the creator who created the desire. But we are speaking of desires that we wish to supervise, develop and build and we want to become humans, not like the still, vegetative and animate where their desires are also connected to the Creator as he is the source of everything. Therefore, we are talking about how much we can organize, arrange, and establish our intention. Our address the Creator in a controlled manner towards our source.

S. In this source nothing will start doing something it isn't doing as it is constantly doing, it's not preventing me from doing something or stopping me, something is wrong in my prayer I don't know how to ask it.

R. You need to scrutinize it more and then ask, don't just talk.

37. S. (01:38:14) This excerpt showed me how much we should be conscious. We are getting different states, each one in his 10 is working with us, some of them are with us for years and their scrutiny is how much is it allowed to bring into a meeting of the 10 things that may be interpreted as the left line when the purpose is to increase the connection?

R. You can't work with such things because you need to scrutinize what you truly want, what is the intention, who is talking about it? I try to work with what the kabbalists write to us and the questions of the students we need to sort them out because they can easily confuse everyone. I will not be confused, but there are people at the beginning of their path and they could get confused by all of those questions and philosophies of yours.

S. Maybe I will be a bit more precise as I was just reading but their question was about is there room to talk about something that has a flavor of the left behind when the friends meet?

R. On the condition that you raise it after a clear scrutiny, that it would help increase the connection in the 10 and only in this way.

38. S. (01:40:22) To ask at the moment and we are operating from the perception of the will to receive, the light seems to be at rest but once we truly strive for that connection that we are looking for, we start to see more and more how the light is not actually at rest but in full swing taking care of everything. Is this the correct way of looking at it?

R. The light is in rest or not at rest according to how much we merit the awakening and it awakens us. The light is in absolute rest it has no changing qualities that has only one quality to reach complete bestowal to all the created beings according to identification with them as much as they are capable of enjoying the lights, the quality of bestowal, according to how they arrange their desires towards the source of bestowal, everything depends on the change in our qualities relative to the lights. As much as possible to resemble the light. This is our entire work, to resemble the light.

Excerpt 19 (01:42:20 -01:43:27) twice

39. R. Inside our senses there begins to appear in various forms, images from which we compose reality. Where, we seemingly exist. Then we need to decipher these forms we are getting in our senses. What does the upper force wish to give us and by that it all depends on the equivalence of our qualities with his. It all depends how we take these forms compared to the essence of his message. We will talk about this in the study on TES Part 1 Histaklut Pnimit.

Excerpt 20 (01:44:22 - 01:45:45)

40. R. That is why the more we rise to the qualities of bestowal we will begin to detect in our reality that we feel new forces, different forces, different reality, relationship until we begin to discover the true world. What can we do, these things we need to discover, feel and understand how it works?

41. S. (01:46:21) Our impressions of the spreading light can only be revealed in our senses?

R. Only in our sense of bestowal

S. What we feel now is irrelevant?

R. Even now what you feel you feel in the expanding light but in qualities opposite to the light.

42. S. (01:46:51) What does it mean in the 10 the names are revealed, how is this relevant to the changes in the vessel?

R. If the 10 can be connected accordingly they can begin to discover the various phenomena between them called mutual bestowal or holy names.

43. S. (01:47:28) In the final correction our reality is the same?

R. This is not the same in any state because it depends upon our qualities.

Excerpt 21 (01:47:56 - 01:48:24)

44. R. We learn from the connection between the lights in the vessels and this is why it turns out that the wisdom of Kabbalah is the wisdom of connection between vessels and lights, between what comes from the Creator as light and what comes to the created being as vessels. This brings us to the correct connection, the Creator and the correct understanding in what he has prepared for us.

Excerpt 22 (01:49:25 - 01:49:48)

45. R. From the very beginning the Creator wanted to create reality, all of reality immediately sprang into existence because he doesn't need our corrections, all of these stages, all of the changes in reality, of other realities it immediately assumed the complete form when the desire to receive that he created acquired the form of bestowal in adhesion with the light and the Creator. But we need to gradually discover the connection between lights and vessels so we can become those who act in this system of laws. This is why we go over it gradually and although there is no problem for the Creator to assign us the final form, through this gradual development we get to add our exertion and through this exertion we attain reality 620 times more in a clear way, in an infinitely clear and greater way, more understood as compared to how we would get this if we received it in a ready-made form from him. Our exertion is what gives us the ability to acquire reality, to become and master it, to live in it and to use it to be like the Creator. We couldn't be like the Creator if we didn't attain it gradually through the exertion.

46. S. (01:52:15) He says it is not at all a real body, what does it mean?

R. Because our will to receive for the time being is corrupt, that is our body.

S. So what is our real body?

R. Meaning to be completely in bestowal.

47. S. (01:52:35) We feel the suffering and the pain of the whole world, what are we lacking?

R. We need to reveal the Creator by ourselves, first and foremost and only later can we also help the world reveal the Creator. This is the meaning of giving the Creator, to present him to the whole world. What I am thinking is to open the study of TES, is it ready and all of the language is?

S. It is completely ready as it was sent as our study materials for the day.
