World Kabbalah Convention

Connecting to There Is None Else Besides Him 22-24 May 2025

Lesson 6: A Prayer of Many to Reveal the One

1. RABASH, Article No. 15 (1986), “A Prayer of Many”

M. Laitman: Okay, we're in the last lesson of the World Kabbalah Convention. The topic is Connecting To There Is None Else Besides Him. Connecting To There Is None Else Besides Him – I think that all in all, we have squeezed this time and our efforts. And we'll do more and more, with the help of God, Congresses like this, and even more than this. So, let us see!

Reader: As I've said, we are in lesson number six, which is the last in our World Kabbalah Convention, Connecting to There Is None Else Besides Him. The topic for the lesson is The Prayer Of Many To Reveal The One. A few technical things: If you want to ask a question, raise your hand, keep it up until you get the permission to speak. And we'll be happy to hear you guys on Zoom from all over the world and those on Arvut. Please ask questions briefly, only on the lesson topic. If you're seated here, at the front of the hall, please don't move, as much as is possible, don't move around except for when it's the song playing. So, Lesson Number Six, a Prayer of Many to Reveal the One. Rabash writes:

Reading: (02:00) Article No. 15, 1986. A Prayer of Many

The Zohar. It advises those people with an inner demand, who cannot accept the state they are in because they do not see any progress in the work of God, and believe what is written (Deuteronomy 30:20), “To love the Lord your God, to listen to His voice, and to cleave unto Him; for this is your life, and the length of your days.” They see that they lack love and Dvekut [adhesion/cleaving], and they do not feel the life in the Torah or know how to find counsel for their souls to come to feel in their organs that which the text tells us.

The advice is to ask for the whole collective. In other words, everything that one feels that he is lacking and asks fulfillment for, he should not say that he is an exception or deserves more than what the collective has. Rather, “I dwell among my own people,” meaning I am asking for the entire collective because I wish to come to a state where I will have no care for myself whatsoever, but only for the Creator to have contentment. Therefore, it makes no difference to me if the Creator takes pleasure in me or can receive the same pleasure from others.

In other words, he asks the Creator to give us such an understanding, which is called, “entirely for the Creator.” It means that he will be certain that he is not deceiving himself that he wants to bestow upon the Creator, that perhaps he is really thinking only of his own self-love, meaning that he will feel the delight and pleasure.

Therefore, he prays for the collective. This means that if there are a few people in the collective who can reach the goal of Dvekut with the Creator, and this will bring the Creator more contentment than if he himself were rewarded with nearing the Creator, he excludes himself. Instead, he wishes for the Creator to help them because this will bring more contentment above than from his own work. For this reason, he prays for the collective, that the Creator will help the entire collective and will give them that feeling—that they receive satisfaction from being able to bestow upon the Creator, to bring Him contentment.

And since everything requires an awakening from below, he gives the awakening from below, and others will receive the awakening from above, to whomever the Creator knows will be more beneficial for the Creator.

It follows that if he has the strength to ask for such a prayer, then he will certainly face a true test—if he agrees to such a prayer. However, if he knows that what he is saying is only lip service, what can he do when he sees that the body disagrees with such a prayer to have pure bestowal without a hint of reception?

Here there is only the famous advice—to pray to the Creator and believe above reason that the Creator can help him and the whole collective.

M. Laitman: I hope everyone heard that; now, are there any questions remaining?

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (08:01) How to pray correctly for the collective, to ask for the collective if the heart wants to pray only for itself?

M. Laitman: You will try to think that way, so that you will want to ask for the collective – for the group, for others, for those close to you, for the friends. Everything depends on the extent to which you think about that, as much as you'll want to think about that.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (08:57) The article speaks of the collective. Now, where we work, that's our Ten, we live in the Ten, we work in the Ten, that's one thing. And secondly, according to what we know, there's nothing except for the Creator. The friends only serve to reflect my qualities, for better or worse. Now, the question is, how do we do this work in accordance with the article and what he writes here?

M. Laitman: How do we do that?

Student: Are we doing it? And also, how to do it correctly, if the Ten represents to me my own qualities, my own corruptions, I see them through the friends. So, do I need to pray for them, for myself, how do I do this work, this prayer?

M. Laitman: We need to be always with our face forward to the Creator, and then, everything I ask for, awaken to ask for, will be always for the friends. I do not consider any of my actions, any of my work, any of my prayers, if it is not for the collective. It needs to be with me a principle that is both the first and the last principle.

Student: So, if I see a corruption in a friend, I don't need to pray for myself, meaning that the corruption is in me. Rather, I need to pray for him, for the Creator, to correct his corruption?

M. Laitman: That's true, but here, there's a question: That you see corruptions in the friends, it means that you do not belong to that same corruption doesn't it?

Student: If I see a corruption, it means I'm not related to that corruption, I don't understand?

M. Laitman: No, you see a certain corruption in the friend and then you can ask, do I see a corruption in him? Or do I need to say that I am corrupted in that same corruption, and therefore I see it in him, in the friend?

Student: Yes, that's what we've always learned, but then is the prayer for me or for him?

M. Laitman: The prayer is upon you.

Question (Qazaqstan): (12:29) He writes about the famous advice, which, as I understand it, even though I understand that my prayer for the friend ultimately is a prayer for myself? I should continue praying that way, and to yearn for God's salvation, is that the famous advice, what he writes about towards the end?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Reader: North America, for example. We will get to that. Kazakhstan.

Question (Qazaqstan): (14:12) In Moldova, we had a Congress connecting together in our Tens. The question is, can we connect these two topics, revealing There's None Else Besides Him, and connection in the Ten, where we all connect together in the Ten, revealing between us?

M. Laitman: I don't know, The matter is that the Ten is an obscure concept. Sometimes we feel that everything gets closed up in the Ten, and at other times we pray for the Ten. And then it turns out that we also are concerned about the collective group, the general group. So, what is important to us is to try and connect between us such that its Tens that we direct ourselves that we will progress, and that they will be strong Tens, these key Tens, and only that way can we advance.

Question (Qazaqstan): (16:26) How can we sustain the feeling we got in the Congress due to all the efforts with the friends? We have many friends in different Congresses. How can they keep everything that they're feeling right now when they come back, here? Do you have any advice for us?

M. Laitman: Yes, I do have advice, I do have advice: When you get back home, each one in your own place, in your own Ten, you need to try to connect among yourselves and to begin studying with us, it's desirable each and every day. I'm going to still speak about that. Everything you have received at this Congress; it's going to further develop. And you will be able to use that in order to attain the Creator.

Question (Qazaqstan): (17:57) This is my first time coming to a Congress, MAK 62 women's group, they helped me take this step! My question is, what can I do for my friends? How to express my gratitude through spiritual action? Also take into account we're a virtual Ten.

M. Laitman: You need to try to gather together, not physically, but with the help of supporting systems of connection. That's how you will feel difference between our Congress that we are now going through.

Question (W Turkiye): (19:48) What’s the difference between an awakening from below and an awakening from above? And what do we need to ask for the friend’s sake?

M. Laitman: The difference between an awakening from above and an awakening from below is who awakens, us, the Creator, or could it be our friend, our friends, that’s one thing. We also need to understand that we need to try to be connected always as one man with one heart, as much as possible. Not to look at our efforts, our efforts connect in the Creator and He gathers them until we come to becoming one vessel, more or less. And then in that vessel, the Creator fills it, connects it, and makes it a spiritual Ten.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (21:31) He writes, if I understand what he writes, he writes that, I ask for the friend's sake because the Creator will enjoy their nearness more. The question is, when I ask for the friend's, do I need to ask for them to be close to the Creator because that brings them contentment? Or only because it brings the Creator contentment?

M. Laitman: No, you can only bring your friends great pleasure, great advancement by that in which you request, that's all.

Student: So, I ask for the friends so that they too enjoy the connection.

M. Laitman: Yes, that's possible.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (22:30) You answered a friend from Turkey, who is right now in Hungary. You told him that when we come back to our Tens, come back from abroad, we can develop this further in the Ten and use that. The question is, what exactly is it that we’re developing further in the Ten and how to use it?

M. Laitman: No, we’re not exactly in our Ten, each one in their own Tens. So, when we think about connection in a certain different kind of connection. Therefore, we need to pay attention to that in which where we do not forget about our Ten. That I am here as a representative of that Ten and I’m also thinking about them. So, it turns out that at the Congress, first, we need to connect with what's happening to us in a way that is not constant, not regular. And therefore, I ask from the Creator to give me connection with my Ten and with a Ten that I can be connected with, with a few more other people. And we still need to talk about these kinds of connections. Yes.

Student: So, after I come back to my Ten, what changes, what do I expect will change, be renewed, updated, further refined?

M. Laitman: You look forward to being able to bestow to your Ten when you return to it, right? You look forward to connection with them, which is a good connection, mutual understanding. And that you'll feel the extent to which, how much you, that everything will flow to that same connection.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (25:45) Does a Kabbalist see corruptions in the created beings?

M. Laitman: Certainly, he sees. Yes.

Student: What does he ask then, for them? What does he ask for himself?

M. Laitman: Corrections, corrections. He asks for corrections for all those created beings that he sees and feels that they belong to him, he belongs to them. It is all in the field of corruption.

Student: But I cannot grasp how the Kabbalist sees corruptions in the created beings, on the one hand. But at the same time, we learn that the Kabbalist sees a corrected reality, a whole reality?

M. Laitman: Why not?

Student: Because if he's at the end of correction?

M. Laitman: He is not at the end of correction; we’re not speaking about those states. The Kabbalist who is in a spiritual degree with these people like us he sees them, also according to how much they are few degrees before ascending spiritual degree. And he also sees the world, the reality in a way that it lets him be with them as much as possible, as open with them as much as possible.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (27:51) You said that everything I ask, I advise to ask, but it will always be for the friends. But to begin with, every request comes from my own self-interest. So what does it mean to ask for the friends in a pure way, with no hidden interests, any self-interest?

M. Laitman: Right, but you're in any case in some group?

Student: They're in my group, yes, and I ask for their sake. But I also identify that what motivates me to ask is my own self-benefit.

M. Laitman: Okay.

Student: That's my motivation, I don't see that I'm truly asking for them in that case.

M. Laitman: For the time being, that's how it is, and also to ask the Creator for this inclination to justify everyone, to connect everyone, that that will come.

Student: What is a pure prayer for the friends?

M. Laitman: A pure prayer for the friends is a prayer that has no desire for one's self.

Student: What is his self here in this prayer?

M. Laitman: That same person who asks, who prays.

Student: And why does the Creator need him, there in the middle?

M. Laitman: It's impossible for no one to be in the middle. Who would pray then?

Student: He's praying not for himself, but?

M. Laitman: For you.

Student: I ask for the friends' sake, but what about me? If nothing needs to go through me, then what am I?

M. Laitman: If the person wants to use the time of connection, the time of the Congress – let's say, the time of connection – then he comes to this state where he asks only for that.

Student: Where is the, me, here?

M. Laitman: You are the one who asks, you are the one asking. You are activating that connection,

Student: which motivates the person to ask without receiving anything in return.

M. Laitman: There's no such thing as receiving nothing, we don't know such a degree. But in any case, it is worthwhile for us to understand that a prayer for the friend, a request for friends, advances a person much more than he, himself, could in some way progress himself.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (31:36) When the friends conducted the Preparation for the Lesson and then there was a song, I was very inspired, very, I was moved. I felt that they managed to extract from me a prayer, a request for their success. It's really like only the friends can squeeze a prayer out of me, they really opened my heart. But me, by myself, there's no way that I'll be able to ask for them of my own volition. I don't know what they did there, but they managed to extract from me this prayer. And I feel that I don't know how to do what they did, in how they operated on me.

M. Laitman: If you connect to your friends, and you ask all the participants of ours here, or in general, right? You ask for them to have advancement, progress to the Creator, to feel Him, to speak to Him, that He will relate to us as children. So, that's what needs to be.

Student: I felt, all of a sudden, the great difference between me and them. Because my requests are all technical, but what comes from them, it really fashions a prayer in me, for them, for what they want to achieve. So, I want to say thank you to the friends for the great efforts they're making to bestow and I want to tell you all, it's working!

M. Laitman: Very nice, thank you.

Question (Kyiv): (34:41) In the Preparation for the Lesson, all the friends raised a prayer to the Creator. Can we, right now, at the end of this lesson – at the end of the Congress – hear your prayer, dear Rav? We would very much like to hear your prayer.

M. Laitman: You want to hear, but you cannot? What?

Reader: Technically, they hear you; what they asked is, they asked to hear your prayer. I'll repeat the question. What is your prayer, Rav?

M. Laitman: My prayer is for all of us to connect, both here and all around the world, our groups, and even more than our groups. That, I can say that that is in my heart.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (36:26) I wanted to ask about our prayers which are impure, still contaminated with the self. Can the Creator clean up my prayer?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: Do I need to ask for that each time I pray?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: And when I pray for the Ten? Do I help the whole world through that prayer? Or do I also need to ask for the whole world, specifically?

M. Laitman: No, you can discover to whom you want to do that to.

Student: And this affects everyone?

M. Laitman: No, it doesn't influence everyone, it influences who you request for.

Student: So if I want to influence the whole world, I have to include the whole world in my prayer?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Question (Istanbul): (37:59) When a person feels lowly, he sees the group is above him, and then he can pray for his own flaws, but not for the society, because he doesn't see flaws in the society. How to pray for others in such a state?

M. Laitman: Try to direct oneself to connection with others that the connection between you and others will be also together with the group and with the Creator. And then it turns out that you will be connected already to the upper force and to the force of the group. And in such a way, you will already have a message that is correct, in order to raise it to the Creator.

Reader: Let's continue to Excerpt 2, Rabash writes in the article, A Prayer of Many:

Reading: (39:32) Excerpt 2. Article No. 15, 1986. A Prayer of Many

We can understand the importance of a prayer of many, as it is written, “I dwell among my own people.” The Zohar says, “One should never retire from the people because the mercy of the Creator is always on the whole people together.” This means that if one asks the Creator to give him vessels of bestowal, as our sages said, “As He is merciful, you be merciful, too,” one should pray for the whole collective. This is because then it is apparent that his aim is for the Creator to give him vessels of pure bestowal, as it was written, “The mercy of the Creator is always on the whole people together.” It is known that there is no giving of half a thing from above. This means that when abundance is given from above to below, it is for the whole collective.

M. Laitman: This means that if we want to turn to the Creator, we need to depict the upper force, that it connects all of us together. And each and every one of us will try to pray for the collective. And in such a way, we can wait for the mercies of the Creator, that He will come closer to us in Rahamim, in mercies. Okay?

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (42:22) We read that the Creator’s mercy is always upon the entire people, all the people together. What are the Creator’s mercies?

M. Laitman: He has revealed mercies and He has concealed mercies. Merciful means that He relates to someone – not according to a sentence, but according to mercy.

Student: On the face of it, when you look around it's difficult to see any mercy.

M. Laitman: Well, it depends from what point you're thinking.

Student: How can we get closer to that point where we feel the Creator's mercy?

M. Laitman: If you want to organize yourself toward the Creator, you first need to be in adaptation with Him. He is merciful, so are you. That's all.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (44:02) How to ask for the whole collective ahead of time, and not just after coming to despair, trying to ask for himself, and so on?

M. Laitman: No, this needs to be a constant prayer, that you ask for all the friends in all the groups. And you pray for that in which the Creator will relate to them in an open way.

Student: But in reality, this happens very little. If I'm in prayer at all, then?

M. Laitman: Try to add also for this a sentence from yourself, a sentence of your own.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (45:18) I still don't understand, if the request should be for us, with me included in that? Or, as it's said in the first excerpt, to give up on myself, exclude myself, and ask only for them.

M. Laitman: Both of these, but it's better if you are inside it.

Student: Yes, but if I'm in there, there's always this feeling that ultimately it's a request for myself.

M. Laitman: Why?

Student: Because if everyone else receives, well, I receive also.

M. Laitman: Okay, that's how it needs to be.

Student: So, how to turn this request into something more pure, pure bestowal?

M. Laitman: No, no, no, no, pure is not something that you'll find from you toward the collective. But on the contrary, that you want to be inside the collective – inside, I dwell within my people – and accordingly you will progress.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (46:40) There are many friends right now all over the world connected. And our friends who are new to the concept of the Ten, also, and you said that for all the friends going back home, today. You said that you expect them to connect every day with all they receive from this congress. The question is, why is it so important, so special to study on a daily basis?

M. Laitman: If you bring yourself to the lesson, then you give room to the Creator to bestow to you, together with all the participants. If you are not in the lesson, you do not connect to all the participants. So then you, seemingly, make the Creator more distant from you and then you cannot hope for that to happen. We need to try to be in the lesson every day and no less than that.

Student: If I may continue, in the prayer for a friend? In the Ten, we are always praying for each other. That the friends always have energy and that they'll persevere and continue. What does the Creator want from us? How can our prayer truly be whole?

M. Laitman: Only connection, a prayer for connection. That is what the Creator wants. Connect and succeed!

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (49:24) What does the Creator want us to ask of Him?

M. Laitman: That He will correct us, and through that He will teach us how we need to correctly turn to Him in order to ask for our correction.

Student: So, I ask for the collective? I ask that He help the friends to ask for correction?

M. Laitman: Okay, yes. That's it.

Reader: Should we continue to the next excerpt? Excerpt 3? Excerpt 3. Rabash writes in the article, The Importance of a Prayer of Many:

Reading: (50:20) Excerpt 3. Rabash. Article No. 7, 1986. The Importance of a Prayer of Many

Baal HaSulam explained the matter of a prayer of many as a person praying for the many; this is called “a prayer of many.” This is why a prayer of many is called “a time of good will.” When a person prays for himself, he has slander and questions whether his prayer is truly worth acceptance. But when he prays for the public, it becomes irrelevant to scrutinize him and to see if he is worthy of his prayer being answered.

This is why it was said that a prayer of many is called “a time of good will” and his prayer is answered.

M. Laitman: If a person himself asks and prays – there's millions like that around the world. But if he feels that he is connected with those like him, more and more people like him. That we all are more or less directed at the Creator in order to rise in spiritual degrees, so then it turns out that the person already turns to the Creator with all of his friends; by doing so, he succeeds.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (53:04) So we've been here in the convention for three days now, we're a big group from the point of the heart and we're engaging in connection and love of friends. We wanted to ask what can we do after the Convention, how can we extend this awakening from below?

M. Laitman: I think that after the congress, you need to implement what we learned: Connection in the Tens, connection between the Tens, and to advance in such a way.

Student: And should we connect all the other Tens in the point of the heart together with us, or should I be concerned with my own Ten?

M. Laitman: First, to be concerned about your Ten, that it will be whole as much as possible. And together with that, to try and be connected with everyone who is in Bnei Baruch.

M. Laitman: Not to be, how should I put it, not to close yourself only in the Ten.

Student: To actually connect with everyone.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (55:01) There's a certain volume of work on every degree which exhausts that degree's level of revelation. So, can it be said that a complete degree is to rise to the greatness of the Rav, then to the greatness of the friends, the greatness of the students?

Student: We don't learn that way. We don't learn that way, period.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (55:56) This perhaps is a bit of a childish question, but I'll ask in any case. The Creator shattered us into pieces, gave us the will to receive. Here we say, if you break it, you pay for it. So, why do we need to correct this for such a long time?

M. Laitman: That's what He prepared for us. As a result of the correction, He will give us reward.

Student: Do we get a big reward after we correct it?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: But it's difficult, you see, we try every day, every day.

M. Laitman: So continue, continue, and you'll see how much the reward is so much greater than what you can even imagine.

Student: So, I pray that with God's help we will all do it and succeed in it.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (57:07) With respect to the excerpt, he says that if a person prays for himself, the slanderers come and they show why he's unworthy. But there's sometimes this feeling that the prayer is, it cannot develop. It can't be made deeper, richer, it's staccato, you know, it keeps repeating dryly. But in order to truly pray for the friends, I have to expand my heart, I have to feel them, I have to have them live within me. But they won’t live in me if the Creator doesn’t give that, doesn’t cause that. So there’s some transition here that needs to happen; but meanwhile, the prayer is egoistic, the Creator stops you in place and you start thinking, maybe these prayers aren’t for me?

M. Laitman: That’s incorrect. Are your prayer directed at correction even if it’s only at the beginning of the path. So if that’s the case, the Creator relates to that.

Student: So, why doesn't the prayer develop?

M. Laitman: You need to scrutinize that more. By prayer, a request, a deficiency, to do everything that He wants from you in order that you will be able to ask from Him.

Student: I really want to do what He wants of me, but?

M. Laitman: Ma'am, I answered you, that's all.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (59:20) I have a question related to the prayer for correction: If at any point where I see a mismatch, I ask for a correction. But I ask within me, for myself, how can I turn this prayer to a prayer for the collective, for the whole of the society?

M. Laitman: Add words to it. That you pray for everyone.

Student: That this personal correction will also influence everything else?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:00:07) In this Congress, I felt very deep intentions and prayers running through the friends' hearts, and the friends all over the world. It was like many streams flowing into this one single river, the river of the Creator. But what I felt about this flow, that it was free. Maybe not perfect, but it was free, it was perfect. But I felt that there was no self-interest, no selfish interest between the friends. So, how to take this flow and magnify it after the Congress, so that we feel this flow, this joy, that freedom that the Creator makes flow between us?

M. Laitman: As you were saying, so do that. Well, what else do we have? Excerpt four, yes?

Reader: Yes, we can read Excerpt Number Four, Rabash writes in the article “Run My Beloved”:

Reading: (01:01:07) Excerpt 4. Rabash. Article No. 217. Run My Beloved

It is a great rule that the person himself is called “a creature,” meaning only he alone. Other than him it is already considered the holy Shechina. It follows that when he prays for his contemporaries, it is considered that he is praying for the holy Shechina, who is in exile and needs all the salvations. This is the meaning of eternity, and precisely in this manner, the light of mercy can be revealed.

Another reason we should pray only for the general public is the need to disclose the light of mercy, which is the light of bestowal. It is a rule that it is impossible to receive anything without equivalence. Rather, there must always be equivalence.

Hence, when he evokes mercy on himself, it follows that he is engaged in reception for himself. And the more he prays, not only is he not preparing the Kli [vessel] of equivalence, but on the contrary, sparks of reception form within him.

It turns out that he is going the opposite way: While he should prepare vessels of bestowal, he is preparing vessels of reception. “Cleave unto His attributes” is specifically “As He is merciful, so you are merciful.”

Hence, when he prays for the public, through this prayer he engages in bestowal. And the more he prays, to that extent he forms vessels of bestowal, by which the light of bestowal, called “merciful,” can be revealed.

By receiving the light of mercy, there is an ability to later reveal the quality of “gracious.”

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:04:28) Also, by the previous excerpt, as well as this excerpt, going by that, when there is a time of will, a prayer of many, that is accepted, no slanderers. And according to this excerpt, it's impossible to receive anything without equivalence. So, the prayer of many happens on condition that it's a common lack?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: If I ask for something for the many, but it's not actually the lack of the Ten, the lack of the collective, it won't be accepted?

M. Laitman: So we need to prepare ourselves so that it'll be a lack of everyone's for prayer. So, look into how much it helps, you think that we're studying something very abstract, detached from the person, it's not detached. We simply need to take the collective lack or deficiency of the Ten, or even more than the Ten, to wrap it in the correct words. To deal with laziness and all kinds of – and accordingly we will succeed.

Student: How can I tell if the collective lack that's in my mind or heart is correct? How can I not delude myself thinking I'm praying for the many?

M. Laitman: Try to talk with your friends that you think it is worthwhile for you together to ask for one another or with one another. And accordingly you will come to a scrutiny, first with words, afterward in thought; and that's how it will carry out.

Student: What's the difference between a prayer for the many from an individual or a prayer for the many from a Ten?

M. Laitman: An individual cannot pray a prayer for the many. Prayer of many means either that it's a prayer for the many; or that it's a prayer that a person prays within their Ten. That is all, that's what it is. Check.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:08:01) When we try connecting the Ten, it seems there are many disruptions because we actually want it for ourselves, not to help others, maybe that's why we can't achieve a prayer. But even if we do reach that prayer, we'll maybe find that we prepared vessels of reception rather than vessels of bestowal.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: So, it would appear there are several stages to the prayer. You need to go through the preliminary stage. And then you also need to stop and say we want bestowal, not reception, you need to deal with that, as well.

M. Laitman: That's also correct.

Student: So, how to prepare for all this ahead of time?

M. Laitman: Write down that you want this and this and that and don't forget about the group and about all of Bnei Baruch, let's say. Write it down and then try to emphasize what should be first, what should be next, what's more important, what's less important. And then by doing so, you will come to a certain form and you'll be able to hold that before you, and that's how you can succeed.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:09:58) How can a person in our Holy Society who wants to reach the Creator and connection, how can he come to a proper prayer if he's without a Ten? If he's in such a situation within our society, how can he reach a correct prayer and connect to everyone in that situation?

M. Laitman: He cannot. He needs to find himself a Ten and to connect with them; and out of a connection with them to raise a prayer.

Student: And to the extent that he's being punished, he's not allowed, how can he still be connected to the Creator?

M. Laitman: There's no such thing. Listen to what I'm telling you. He needs to find a Ten.

Student: I hope everyone is listening and I'm listening as well.

M. Laitman: We need to return to this.

Question (North America): (01:12:06) If it brings joy to the Creator when we pray collective prayer, if I don't feel it yet and pray above the reason, would that prayer count?

M. Laitman: I didn't understand?

Reader: If she doesn't feel that her prayer of many, when she prays for the many, if she doesn't feel that it brings contentment to the Creator, does the prayer still count?

M. Laitman: If she prays with a group, and what, that doesn’t reach the Creator?

Reader: If the prayer of many brings contentment to the Creator, but I don’t feel it yet, I’m just doing it above reason.

M. Laitman: Okay, okay, it doesn’t matter, don’t leave that and constantly pray. I hope that after the Congress from tomorrow, every single one of us will try to be together with us in more connection and with everyone. And then our prayers will start acting throughout the whole of reality, and then we will succeed more quickly.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:14:12) The Creator created an enormous puzzle made of who knows how many – 600,000 pieces, more – and He helps us assemble it using the Torah, the wisdom of Kabbalah, Rav's guidance and the support of our friends in Bnei Baruch. It's a living puzzle, but everything depends on the beginning of the spiritual development, then you can begin to see the images on the puzzle pieces. So, the friends connect the pieces into greater blocks. How can we be more helpful? We pledge to take an active part in the process. We're young in this, new to this, but from the beginning of the month of November, I been coming every morning to the virtual lesson and once a week on Thursday, we come physically, those who can.

M. Laitman: That's great! Advance, advance even more, one week to the next, add; and you’ll see it only advances you!

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:16:11) I understand that we want to form a connection with the Creator, which is a shared connection from one united vessel. So how can we align ourselves towards the Creator and receive from Him in order to bestow to Him?

M. Laitman: You need to be in correspondence or talking among yourselves at least twice a week. What needs to be in this correspondence: It needs to be about what you should be thinking, how we can connect together, what do we need in our hearts to feel. And with that raise a plea to the Creator, if we will try to progress that way – so trust me that – that is a, it's very close, that thing.

Student: So, correspondence?

M. Laitman: Correspondence that you write, what you think about, what you ask, something like that, these short things.

Student: From each Ten?

M. Laitman: From each one.

Student: From each individual.

M. Laitman: But don't confuse each other.

Student: And that will create a shared collective vessel from the whole vessel, a collective prayer?

M. Laitman: One question from the whole vessel, don't say that it's a common prayer, but in a more simpler way, that's how you can do it, in a more simpler way.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:18:28) Yes, we're actually, we've actually concluded this lesson and the whole Convention with it, Lesson Number Six with you. If you could perhaps summarize for us these three days, these six lessons with you, what do you feel that we received in this Congress? Everything.

M. Laitman: I feel that we can, connect and advance much more from one day to the next, from today onward. Try to be as connected as possible, try to be focus on connection, and that is how we will advance.

Student: Can you perhaps say what the next degree of B’nei Baruch is, where are we headed?

M. Laitman: Tens correctly connected, prepared, advanced for connection between the Tens. I already think that you deserve it – not everyone – but that's all.

Student: I'd like to say one more thing. I got to communicate with many groups in the world, many friends. And everyone unanimously passed their love, their gratitude on to you for all the energy you've invested in this Congress. It's an example to us and we all feel it, thank you!

Reader: Friends, we will now summarize the lesson in the Ten.
