Part 1: Baal HaSulam. Introduction to the Preface to the Wisdom of Kabbalah

Reader: Hello, we are reading from Baal HaSulam’s “Introduction to the Preface to the Wisdom of Kabbalah”. You can find the study material on our websites on Sviva Tova, kabbalahgroup.info and, also, on the Arvut system. You can also ask questions during the live broadcast on those sites. Here, everyone in the study hall, anyone who wants to ask a question is requested to stand up, hold the mic close to their mouth, and speak clearly and loudly. Baal HaSulam’s “Introduction to the Preface to the Wisdom of Kabbalah”. “Introduction to the Preface to the Wisdom of Kabbalah”.

Item 1

Reading: (00:45) It is written in The Zohar, Vayikra, Portion Tazria, “Come and see: All that exists in the world exists for man, and everything exists for him, as it is written, ‘Then the Lord God formed man,’ with a full name, as we have established, that he is the whole of everything and contains everything, and all that is above and below, etc., is included in that image.”

Thus, it explains that all the worlds, upper and lower, are included in man. And also, the whole of reality within those worlds is only for man. And we should understand these words: Is this world and everything in it, which serves him and benefits him, too little for man, that he needs the upper worlds and everything within them, too? After all, they were created solely for

Reader: (02:33) Who is this man that they are writing about? That everything is included in him, everything was created for him, who is the man?

M. Laitman: This is probably talking about Adam HaRishon?

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (03:11) What is the connection between that man that is being discussed and us?

M. Laitman: We are outcomes, descendants, of that. So, we learn about it, we mean that we are parts of it.

Student: It discusses Adam HaRishon that was created or the corrected man, the corrected Adam that we want to be?

M. Laitman: No, it's talking about the created being of Adam HaRishon and we are its descendants, and we have to achieve a certain goal.

Student: What is the meaning that we are included in him?

M. Laitman: Included in it, meaning that all the souls and we're not talking about bodies here. That all the souls are included in Adam HaRishon.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (04:38) He finishes the item by saying that we need to understand these words, that this world and everything in it which serves Him and benefits Him is too little for man, that he needs the upper worlds and everything with them, too. After all, they were created for his needs. How should we understand that?

M. Laitman: Yes, that truly everything is included in Adam, part of Adam. And he has to, probably in order to reach his goal, he has to include all of these things within.

Student: What does it mean that this world was created, also, that this world was created for him?

M. Laitman: I don't know, we'll learn, we've just started the article.

Item 2

Reading 2): (05:47) To explain this matter to the fullest, I would have to introduce the whole of the wisdom of Kabbalah. But in general, matters will be sufficiently explained within the book, so as to understand them. The essence of it is that the Creator’s intention in creation was to delight His creatures. Certainly, as soon as He contemplated creating the souls and delighting them abundantly, they immediately emerged from before Him, complete in form and with all the delights He had planned to bestow upon them. This is because in Him, the thought alone completes, and He does not need actions as we do. Accordingly, we should ask, “Why did He create the worlds restriction after restriction down to this murky world, and clothed the souls in the murky bodies of this world?

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (07:52) Why do we always emphasize that the Creator didn't need a practical Kli, vessel, that everything comes from the thought? They always emphasize that in the beginning. What can we learn from that?

M. Laitman: That truly the Creator is a special force of nature that includes everything and builds everything, creates everything. And they built us as the center of creation in that we have to make a certain action that He thought of in advance.

Student: We say that we know You from Your actions and we learn from the actions of the Creator. But it says that the Creator didn't need this practical vessel.

M. Laitman: We'll see what's next. Perhaps we'll understand.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (09:07) It is written that when it arose upon His thoughts to create the souls and to fill them with all goodness, so then they came out of Him in all of their heights. Where is that?

M. Laitman: I don't know but if he writes that then we'll wait. Perhaps we'll discover and read and understand. But for now, he didn't speak of it.

Question (Kyiv 1): (10:00) There is a question here: Why did the Creator create us in this murky dressing of this world? What is this reality of this world in this picture?

M. Laitman: The Creator aims for our corrected state, not the state that we exist in to begin with. We have to understand what is this work before us, what we have to do, and what we have to achieve.

Question (Moscow): (11:04) If a man includes everything within himself, so who gives him the name man? From what point does that come, where is that construction?

M. Laitman: Adam includes within it all of the created beings and the Creator is above that. The Creator gives man all kinds of problems in life so that he can solve them and develop.

Student: Who gives him that name, that connection between the creation and the Creator, from what point does that emerge?

M. Laitman: It is said about this in the Torah that Adam gives a name to all created beings.

Student: How can he give himself that name?

M. Laitman: Probably there is an understanding within Adam of how to call himself and those similar to him.

Question (Turkiye 2): (12:42) How do all the qualities become one body? What is this special connection that connects all the qualities into one body?

M. Laitman: I can't even say in words but we do read and hear that one man was created and then his soul divided into many pieces, And each and every piece grows also as human beings that make a connection between them.

Question (Tel Aviv 1): (13:55) If the Creator's thought is enough to create everything, He doesn't need an action. I'm talking about the individual and collective correction so then the person can reach a correction of everything. Does that mean he can complete the thought, completely? He can finish that thought even without an action?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: What does that mean? That with my thought I can create things? What does it mean?

M. Laitman: One can understand that by corrections, we come closer to such a form of Adam that with our desire, we will also be able to shape various shapes and qualities that bring us to correction.

Student: To influence things happening in the world, processes happening in this world?

M. Laitman: Yes, yes, in this world, as well.

Student: Also, in the spiritual world?

M. Laitman: Of course.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (15:23) What is a correction?

M. Laitman: Correction means resembling the Creator.

Student: Does the person correct or does the Creator correct?

M. Laitman: The person discovers that he doesn't have the quality – or the correction – and then the Creator does it.

Student: Meaning, the correction on the person's behalf is that he has to ask for the Creator?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: What are all these concealments that he's talking about here, the worlds that are being discussed here in the Introduction?

M. Laitman: This is until a person comes to his full role then he has to undergo various forms of concealment and corrections until he becomes truly as Adam, similar to the Creator.

Student: All these concealments conceal the true qualities of man and then He reveals them in the process. How is the revelation of these qualities make him request and ask for the correction?

M. Laitman: Because in all of the attainment of these forms of resemblance to the Creator, there's also both attainment and concealment. Therefore, the more a person attains, the more he also reveals he lacks.

Student: When man reveals some quality that he needs for correction, does he need to activate something from himself to make that correction happen? Or does it happen in the process by itself?

M. Laitman: Oh, I don't know. He only reveals how much he lacks resembling the Creator.

Student: The deficiency, the lack to resemble is clear but does he need to reach that request to correct?

M. Laitman: In resembling the Creator, he has to clarify how much of it is in his strength or not, and accordingly, he turns to the Creator to ask for help, to ask for the correction.

Student: Because sometimes trying to correct means denying that I need the help of the Creator but from experience we need His help. The question is at this moment I need to say no, if I am for me then I am for me? Or it's all Him and I need to come to that request, or do we need that request from the beginning?

M. Laitman: No, a person needs to discover that his goal is to reach adhesion with the Creator; and adhesion means equivalence of form. From that, he has nothing and then he begins to ask gradually.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (19:36) It is written in the excerpt that when it came to his thoughts to create the souls and delight them abundantly. So, what is the corrected state – the souls – or the man who is in the corrected state? It seems like we broke apart from all that goodness, that it's not all one soul.

M. Laitman: Read what you've read.

Student: “And the essence of it is that the Creator's intention of the pleasures that there was in creation to delight them. So, the question is who is all that delight and pleasure for? Is it for the uncorrected state or for the corrected state, for the souls, that they need to connect into one?

M. Laitman: It isn't written about that. It is written that all the souls exist from the beginning of creation and the Creator holds them, sustains them.

Student: The question is shouldn't it be that in the corrected state all the abundance is revealed, that they all turn into one?

M. Laitman: This, I don't know, it's not written, yet.

Student: Because here it says that it's written, created for the souls, so that's a question?

M. Laitman: Yes, yes, the souls.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (21:32) At the end, it's written that He created the world so that the souls are clothed in the murky bodies of this world. What does that mean that the souls are clothed in the murky bodies of this world?

M. Laitman: The souls are clothed in a desire which is a desire to receive, meaning opposite to the spiritual desire, that's it. This is what we call bodies of this world.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (22:11) I heard that you said that correction means resembling the Creator?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: In order that I can resemble something, I need to recognize it, know it, to want to be like it. What do I understand in the Creator?

M. Laitman: I don't know, the process will learn. This is what we see: That man was created opposite from the Creator and he has to come to a resemblance to the Creator.

Student: How can we ask from a person to resemble the Creator if he, other than just saying, bestowal, Creator, Good That Does Good, all these words, whether the person really has no grasp of them? How can you demand of him to reach that?

M. Laitman: It's, probably, possible.

Student: What gives us an opening to progress in that direction?

M. Laitman: That He created us. You see this on children, how they come to the parents and demand.

Student: But with kids and parents, it's very clear, we always give the example of the father hammering the nail and the kid acts that out, plays that out. I don't see the Creator, I have all kinds of fantasies in my head of what the Creator is, maybe. How do I know what I should resemble?

M. Laitman: That's why He gave us the Torah.

Student: What do I learn in the Torah?

M. Laitman: I learn from the Torah about the world and myself, and me. Everything is learned from the Torah.

Student: And then what, I read in the Torah, what should then happen with the person?

M. Laitman: Then I see what I'm lacking.

Student: The process is unclear, I'm asking about the process: How is it possible to come to resemble something if you don't know what it is?

M. Laitman: So, we probably reveal better and better what is the form of the Creator, and to that extent, we can resemble Him.

Student: [Missing translation]

M. Laitman: That, too.

Student: Where will I see an example of bestowal through the friends? Through the Rav?

M. Laitman: We'll see, I don't know, we haven't found it but it doesn't mean that it's not there.

Student: No, I don't say that there's none but I need to see what's happening. I just need to ask how, what needs to happen there, and what do I expect for there to happen there.

M. Laitman: I don't know, we read item one. I hope that next there is more written.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (25:35) I'm also asking about the souls dressed in the murky bodies in this world. We said that the bodies are the will to receive and the souls, are they also desires but much thinner, purer?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: All souls are the Godly part from above?

M. Laitman: The will to bestow.

Student: So, it's also a desire.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (26:06) What is this murky world?

M. Laitman: This is what we feel, what we experience right now.

Student: And this reality is temporary?

M. Laitman: It's probably temporary.

Student: What is this temporary reality and the eternal reality of the Creator? What is a temporary reality?

M. Laitman: That He created this reality for us to go from the initial form of a will to receive in order to receive to a desire that is similar to the Creator – a desire to bestow.

Student: In that eternal reality, how is there a small part that is temporary, that starts and ends? There's seemingly an end to that reality.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: How is there a part that ends at some point?

M. Laitman: We'll discover that, we'll learn.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (27:25) He says that He created the world in the beginning in a thought. And we, in order to reveal Him need to reveal between us in a field of love. What is the connection between Him creating everything in a thought and we needing to reveal Him in this field of love?

M. Laitman: I think that's the same thing: What the Creator thinks, it comes to us as qualities, and the fact He has love for the created beings, that is what brings us also the quality of love.

Student: It comes from that place to us, and creation is that He created us in this separation. Our goal is to unite. There is no man, we need to create this man between us. so where is this equivalence of form?

M. Laitman: You're asking about things we haven't yet reached and actually didn't learn. We only read one item.

Student: Only in the direction, I'm not asking practically in the tendency. He created something, He extracted something from Himself, made something outside of Himself, and we need to connect. I'm asking about the principle not about the details.

M. Laitman: The resemblance is that just as we were created, we are different created beings, detached and opposite from each other, and so forth. If we find some quality that unifies us, then we can achieve connection; and by that, we can study who the Creator is.

Student: Meaning, from the connection between us we can start talking about what He did, does, and start recognizing Him?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (30:29) Why do we only come to equivalence of form from the opposite form to the Creator?

M. Laitman: That's how we learn anything there is. If we want to study anything we have to study something opposite to it and then we can understand the thing.

Student: Does He have a need for the vessel of reception, or does the Creator have no need?

M. Laitman: The Creator has no need, whatsoever.

Student: It's clear that the Creator gave us everything that there is. What we lacked – the Creator – is it because the Creator didn't give it to us? Or that He gave the deficiency, that lack?

M. Laitman: The Creator created a deficiency within us, and that is what we gradually uncover.

Student: He gave the deficiency, the lack, that's what He gave.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (31:42) The Creator created everything and He also concealed everything. Is that correct?

M. Laitman: Probably?

Student: Now, that act of concealment for us people, that act of concealing one to another, that we do an action that is called concealment, parents to children do that. What is that act of concealment that is similar intention to how the Creator did an act of concealment?

M. Laitman: Still, don’t know.

Student: Is there such a thing as not putting an obstacle before a blind man, and to disclose one portion and conceal two? Can we open that, can we understand what is that action that is correct?

M. Laitman: We can just say that concealment helps us better understand what is hidden. Then we discover all of the qualities that are hidden from us. And when we discover who is concealed and by what and how. Then we better and better understand Him when we reveal Him. So, the concealment is also part of revelation.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (33:24) I wanted to ask about the format of the study, if possible. We now started reading The Introduction to the Preface of The Wisdom of Kabbalah. And we see that in Items 1 and 2, that they include things that, afterward, we learn many details from them. I feel on myself that my mind confuses me, that there are always worlds. And the question is, should I clean everything when we start a new article? Should I just erase everything and just go with the author, flow with the author? Or should I try to connect things to there from what I knew before? What is your advice?

M. Laitman: There are many approaches and techniques here and I can't determine on my own. Because I myself studied this introduction dozens of times, and therefore we study the way we study with Rabash. Meaning we study, then he explains and a bit more, a bit more, you get, you think about it more until it becomes clear more or less.

Student: I, also, wanted to ask that in Item 1, he said that the whole world was created only for man. Now me as an egoist, I think of that and think, great, the whole world was created for me, and another egoist sits next to me and thinks the exact same thing.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: But a Kabbalist with the lens of bestowal, glasses of bestowal, how does he say, what does he think when they say all the worlds were created for man? Who is the man?

M. Laitman: Yes, that's the question: Who is the Adam for which man were the world worlds created?

Student: It's not the flesh and protein body, it's a system, right?

M. Laitman: I don't know, a kind of creature called Adam, and for that, it seems the world was created. You have to approach it with all options open.

Student: He writes also that the man is created for the upper worlds, he needs the upper worlds and also the lower worlds. What are the lower worlds that it seems that the person there is in the middle there? So, what are those lower worlds that were created for the person?

M. Laitman: He includes the qualities of the upper worlds, bestowal, adhesion with the Creator, the feeling of Ein Sof, and so on. And the lower worlds where all the limitations are felt, and the lowly qualities he is also comprised of.

Student: So, the man is included in all of those. The world was created only for man, but the world wasn't created for the Creator, or Torah Lishma, that it’s for the Torah? Why does it say that the world was created only for man?

M. Laitman: Because in truth, Adam is the creature for which everything was created, and the Creator created everything for him. We'll learn, in the meantime, we see how many questions there are more and more. And there's no other way but to study.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (38:09) Earlier I heard you say that if we want to learn something, we need to learn something that is from its opposite and then we can understand it. Now, how should we relate to states, let's say in the Ten, states where each person, meaning they reveal all kinds of states that are the opposite of what unfolds in the future.

M. Laitman: We have to learn what they are now and how we can describe them in a corrected form.

Student: When these opposite states happen, from what I understand from what you said, from the opposite state, it brings us through a process, it prepares us for the good state. Now, many times in the Ten, when the opposite state happens, frictions, disregard. We do not succeed to see it, you could say, in an expert manner. We see it in this individual, personal way, and it seems in my eyes that I'm missing something in these states. The question is how should we work with these situations in our lives that will progress us, that will accelerate us.

M. Laitman: Write them down, write them down on the side, and then see how throughout the next few lessons you're touching on these things.

Student: What does it mean that it'll touch them?

M. Laitman: That you better understand and you're getting closer to scrutinizing them.

Student: The effort needs to be in these situations not to enter and judge them. But to judge them as little as possible.

M. Laitman: Based on what can you judge?

Student: Something happened to me in the Ten, now, and I feel something negative. You tell me I should put it aside and how should I explain that? The situation makes you feel something specific, something opposite from seemingly what needs to be. What efforts do we need to do other than just writing it down, other than writing down these states but together with the Ten, not just me alone?

M. Laitman: Try to not delve into it, right now, with all of your power and desire; but rather give it some rest.

Student: The more these states are more extreme in their negativity, the Creator prepares something very powerful positively? According to the negative side that's revealed?

M. Laitman: Possibly, yes.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (41:44) On one hand, everything was created for man and now we're learning what is that man. But at the same time His goal is to benefit all His created beings. His goal is to benefit all created beings, does that mean all people in the world?

M. Laitman: No, specifically to the human in the world.

Student: What does that mean?

M. Laitman: Humans, not wolves, or donkeys, or others. But humans.

Student: All people, I understand. There's a person where a point in the heart awakens in him and he hears these things. And in some way even if it sounds distant and there's this remoteness, he gets this explanation. Most people, eight billion of people, they don't get this explanation, they're trying to get pleasures in this world, and they always have more and more of a dead end. That's where they find themselves. How can we project that goal toward them?

M. Laitman: I don't know. I'm not solving the problem for all human beings, I'm reading what he's writing. But we'll see, it's still not clear to us.

Student: Let's say a person who still hasn't had this point in the heart awakened in him and they hear this explanation. Is this explanation of ours, which sounds logical in some kind of way. If a person's detached and hears this explanation, can that develop a desire in him in that direction?

M. Laitman: That could be, that could be. The fact is he can take a book and read and if it touches him, then he continues to research and understand.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (44:20) Continuing the friends line: We say that everything exists in a person and everything that's outside of him is also inside of him. Until we learn that – how can I explain it? Until he hears this, you don't even imagine to yourself that that's the reality. A person who now heard that everything in reality is inside him – I don't know how to even ask it. There will be people in the world who'll never hear this and who'll never feel that it's correct. And there are people who will hear it and they will need to believe that that's the case. What's the difference between those two groups?

M. Laitman: You can ask about the differences between this and this and that and that, endlessly. We have to understand that man, the person, who has an approach to the revelation of the Creator, he feels that there is something within him that he needs to unpack, to unwrap. And you have to learn and relate to these qualities that are awakened in a unique way.

Student: If it's possible to ask: Why does it seem so realistic, this lie where everything that the world is outside of me, that there's some objective reality that it's not inside of me? Why is it that way, why does it feel so real that it's not a lie?

M. Laitman: Because that's how you feel, that's what you feel. That there's something outside of me, closer, farther, and so forth. That's how you experience.

Student: The reality of the upper worlds is prepared only for that upper level, which is called Adam HaRashon and I'll feel that? Or whoever studies the wisdom of Kabbalah really creates?

M. Laitman: If you want it, then you will reveal it.

Student: And the upper worlds, they already exist?

M. Laitman: Everything exists.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (47:03) Maybe I can ask like this: A person walks around in the world, something happens to him, good or bad. The fact he cannot relate it to the Creator, it's as if a world was created for him, a concealment, right? Now, can a friend help another? Can we help each other take each other out of these worlds, these concealments where we don't see The Good That Does Good? Do we have this possibility?

M. Laitman: Again?

Student: Do we have the ability to help each other in taking each other out of these concealments, these Good That Does Good? What's the best way to do it? For example, let's say you really want to help a friend. You want to take him out of where he is. You really do. You pray to the Creator to do it?

M. Laitman: Yes, you can also try that.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (48:24) Following what the friend asked about people of the world. I wanted to share something, if I can: It has to do with dissemination. We had an opportunity to give a lecture to people who were evacuated from their homes in the north, they live in hotels. And we thought about a direction of perception of reality, not Kabbalah, but perception of reality. But we said that in the background, that we are Kabbalah students. Here, he also ends with, we should ask why He created the worlds restriction by restriction all the way down to this world. Now, when we just touched the word, Kabbalah, we felt like they didn't care about anything regarding perception of reality, just that question. This question in the nation, in the people, that's what we felt is very sharp, right now. They want to know why was the world created? What's the purpose of creation? That's the only thing they wanted to discuss. what's the purpose of this life? Just to tell the story so everyone understands how it came to what we just said, that they wanted all of that. It started from, well, this is a hotel, these people live there for a year now, not in their homes. They don't know what's happening in their homes. When they went to tour in their homes, they saw that everything's just filled with bugs and horrible things. And we started – this is where we started from – and when they came to the lecture, they came on the way. By the way, they were convinced to come. You know, some of them said, okay, but I have to go in ten minutes. One of the organizers said, I'm sorry, I'm not going to stay with you the whole time. In the end, not only did they stay but the lecture was extended for two hours even though it was planned for one. They just stayed and asked questions, we didn't even plan to talk about Kabbalah, and they took us there, really, by force. And it was just something that is hard to describe, the process that happened there. We also wanted to share that with the friends but also ask you, what is this power? Something happened there that I didn't understand how because they didn't bring anything special.

M. Laitman: You gave them answers on what happened to them and what's happening to them, that's all. Those are great things, they heard great things, precisely they.

Student: They want us to come again. What should we give them, what would be the most correct thing to now give the people of Israel?

M. Laitman: I don't know, if I would stand before the people of Israel, what Baal HaSulam says.

Student: I heard you once say, and I remember something you said many years ago. You said that if we touch upon people in dissemination, we are obligated to them. You can't touch them and disappear, you have to be there for them. Why does it work that way?

M. Laitman: It's because that is also commanded in the Torah. That, the one who beats the beastly soul is revived. If you beat the beastly soul, you need to pay for it, you need to complement it because you created some kind of flaw in it. So now you need to bring it a correction.

Student: We will go to this action, once again, regardless of that, another hotel called us because they were told by the other ones. So, it's spreading and it's important for us that you help us prepare for such an action. What's the right way to prepare ourselves for such an action? Sorry to ask it like that but you come to the lesson every day. What's the point from which you prepare yourself? What is the preparation?

M. Laitman: I cannot say but certainly I need to think of what I need to pass on to them. And people who are sitting there in hotels and who are looking forward to the time when they return home. They picture to themselves that state of the home that they are returning to, that they want to return to. So, we need to bring them this ray of light. That's for sure! That they need to receive from your efforts.

Student: Yes, the goal is really the goal for which we did it and we also called this from changing perception of reality, we create hope.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: What is that hope?

M. Laitman: It's a hope that we return home and precisely now there's more hope that that state will finish. And we will return and start cleaning ourselves and our homes from everything that was beforehand. And we will enter with the correct and good state in the next one in our development.

Student: We know that behind any process lies the Creator. How do you put the Creator into this that they now go back home and we're going to another phase in the process?

M. Laitman: I don't know, I don't come to reform them. In general, my attitude to the people of Israel is that it will know why it receives these blows and how it can protect itself in order to not receive more such blows.

Student: And how can he guard himself?

M. Laitman: That's what we need to learn; that we need to be as one man with one heart. That we will feel that each one is friend, that is all. We need to explain that in the connection between us, we correct the society.

Student: When we face a public on the outside, what is this inner thing we go through that we should focus on to communicate? Because it's not the words, I saw that it's really not the words.

M. Laitman: No, it's not connected to words but to a feeling. A warm feeling that can be born between people who feel themselves that they have this need for connection.

Student: Through them, we felt that the connection in Israel rose a degree. They come from the North, they come to the center of Israel. And they described how everyone is embracing them, and it's really, it creates an optimistic feeling. It's like the connection rose a degree. So, we're grateful!

M. Laitman: Nice!

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (58:21) I want to go back to The Introduction to the Preface. Why does the Creator need us?

M. Laitman: Many ask that, what is the reason for which the Creator created us? Out of his boredom alone, there's all kinds of such statements. If you ask me, I'm not in that question of why. That's before He created, where he thought what to create. But I start from my reality. I'm in the world, there is this upper force above me and it creates this entire world for me, and that's how I need to continue.

Student: That's clear, that's my reality but if you really want to research the depth of it, why does the Creator need all of this? Why was all this created? Does He need something from us or it's just an opportunity? Take it.

M. Laitman: The purpose of that knowledge is that you will not know.

Question (Latin 5): (01:00:05) What is the abundance the Creator wants to give the created beings?

M. Laitman: The feeling of the true and eternal reality.

Student: He writes that the Creator wants to do good, and at first the created being is in a place where there is no good. The Creator has to bring him to that place.

M. Laitman: That's correct.

Student: So, the goal is to bring man from a worse place to a better place.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Question (Women Latin): (01:00:48) Does everything we have in this lower world already included within us and it extends from above?

M. Laitman: There is such a thing to say that all the roots are above and all the branches are below.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:01:11) I heard that man only discovers what he lacks in order to resemble the Creator. How does he discover that?

M. Laitman: That, the Creator reveals to him; the Creator reveals to the person what the person lacks.

Student: How do we connect in the Ten as souls and not bodies? How do we see the soul in every friend?

M. Laitman: We cannot see that, we don't have the sense for the attainment of the souls. Gradually, through that in which we study the acts of the Creator and the intentions of the Creator, so we start identifying what we lack.

Question (Asia): (01:02:22) Is man the one who received an opportunity to join a group that essentially comes like some sort of a system when we achieve connection? Is that it?

M. Laitman: Is that the intention of the person, let's say that it is.

Student: Why does the Creator put all these obstacles before our revelations?

M. Laitman: So, that we will have it easier to reveal Him. As much as there are more questions, the revelation becomes more complex, I would say.

Reader: What item should we read? We're in item two, now?

M. Laitman: Item 2, again.

Reading: (01:03:29) Item 2:

To explain this matter to the fullest, I would have to introduce the whole of the wisdom of Kabbalah. But in general, matters will be sufficiently explained within the book, so as to understand them. The essence of it is that the Creator’s intention in creation was to delight His creatures. Certainly, as soon as He contemplated creating the souls and delighting them abundantly, they immediately emerged from before Him, complete in form and with all the delights He had planned to bestow upon them. This is because in Him, the thought alone completes, and He does not need actions as we do. Accordingly, we should ask, “Why did He create the worlds restriction after restriction down to this murky world, and clothed the souls in the murky bodies of this world?

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:05:13) What is this murkiness? Here and there that he mentions?

M. Laitman: In comparison with the Creator's qualities, that He created us out of His qualities, which are to benefit, etc. So, how could it be that we see ourselves in a dark world, where we reveal nothing good and nice. No light, no love, nothing?

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:06:09) What is the essence he's talking about, that the Creator's intention is to delight the created beings. What is this essence that he says, you're going into this Preface, and you discover this whole essence, gist?

M. Laitman: Through the study, it increasingly opens up to the reality, the true reality.

Student: How can we, really, in the work between us reveal the Creator's intention to delight the creative beings? We always tell ourselves that we don't know each other's intentions. So how can we discover the Creator's intention to delight the creative beings?

M. Laitman: He wants to reveal that when we reveal that intention to benefit the creative beings, that we will open it in every possible way. We will live in that.

Student: How do you really discover this intention, His intention every day?

M. Laitman: From that in which we want to reveal it and then we seek through all those actions how to reveal it.

Student: This revelation of the Creator's intention, can it happen in the Ten?

M. Laitman: Yes, certainly, where else could it reveal?

Student: He, also, said we have to reach a state of connection between the Tens but I'm saying, what about inside the Ten itself?

M. Laitman: No, no, the main thing is within the Ten itself. Between the Tens, it's another big step forward.

Student: And the coming stage, we're getting to the Congress of Lishma, c Can we reveal the Creator's intention, there?

M. Laitman: Yes, I hope that we will reveal it even beforehand; that we will come to the Congress in February in a way where we will discover ourselves before everyone., and the Creator before everyone. And accordingly, we will reveal ourselves in the center of reality.

Student: We always say, all is clarified in thought. The Creator's thought was really to delight the creative beings?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: How do we advance ourselves by thinking about, as I said before, that we have to want to reveal this? How do we resurface it in our thought all the time? That this is what we want, to be in Lishma, that there's nothing else, that this is our next degree, and we've talked about attack, so to always attack. How do we finally attack it?

M. Laitman: Only think about that, we demand that to become revealed.

Student: To just come and demand from the Creator: give it to us?

M. Laitman: Yes, yes.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:10:05) What does it mean to discover ourselves at the center of reality?

M. Laitman: The center of reality?

Student: The center of reality.

M. Laitman: How do we discover ourselves in the center of reality? That everything's been created for us and everything is directed at us. And we need nothing more than to really reveal ourselves in a form that is directed at the Creator wishing for His revelation.

Student: How do we get there before the Congress?

M. Laitman: How do we get there? I'm for my Beloved and my Beloved is mine. That's the way.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:11:21) He writes here about pleasures the Creator created. What about all the feelings of suffering that the created beings feel, what does that testify to?

M. Laitman: It just points to the fact that they are not immersed in this search for a remedy, for the search for a remedy. Meaning, through what can we benefit the Creator? And in that way, when they want, so then at the moment that they can. okay, well?

Student: If there's a certain objective state that a person feels, can he transform suffering to pleasure? Just like the Creator has a thought, can the created being use thought also to change suffering to pleasure?

M. Laitman: Seemingly, yes.

Student: What needs to change in one's perception? What knowledge or discernments he lacks in order to transform a state felt as suffering to think about it anew, and see pleasures in it?

M. Laitman: To change the purpose of his reality.

Student: If a person changes his attitude to the Giver of the pleasure, can that replace the state from a state of suffering to a state of pleasure?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: What is the correct attitude one should have between one who is created and feels suffering towards his upper, towards the Creator?

M. Laitman: There should be a desire to change; that he'll feel that from above, pleasures come to him, good things. And the fact that he reveals the opposite, it's because of his qualities that he must change. He can't change them but he can ask for it from the upper source to change it for him more.

Question: (Women PT 6): (01:14:49) I heard in the lesson that we don't need any more than just to reveal ourselves in a way of being aimed to the Creator and wanting to reveal Him. What's necessary for us to reveal the Creator?

M. Laitman: What's necessary for us to reveal the Creator is only the desire for it.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:15:24) You talk a lot about the Convention in February that we have an opportunity, that we can discover this desire maybe.

M. Laitman: No, no, no, not to wait. As usual, that's the biggest mistake, the general mistake of everyone.

Student: Can you guide us more what we need to do until the Convention, in the Convention?

M. Laitman: Yes, good.

Student: What do we actually need to do?

M. Laitman: You need to connect – that means to connect your desires – that from all of you there'll be one big desire, and from it, you want to all be connected to the Creator.

Student: That desire that's missing, is it really missing or is it, we're just not touching it, we're not discovering it inside us?

M. Laitman: It's the same thing. If I don't feel it, so it's not there.

Student: Is He concealed?

M. Laitman: Yes, He's concealed in me. Not revealed.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:16:47) The entrance to Lishma depends on pleasure, on our pleasure?

M. Laitman: It depends on?

Student: Is it dependent on our pleasure?

M. Laitman: The entrance to Lishma depends on our pleasure? Well?

Student: To enjoy what exactly?

M. Laitman: In Lishma, I enjoy the fact that I give joy to the Creator.

Student: Is there a difference, there's a difference between Lishma, for the sake of the Torah, and for His sake, Lishmo, which is the sake of Ein Sof. How to enjoy the sake of the Torah?

M. Laitman: How to enjoy for the sake of the Torah?

Student: Yes, for the sake, how to enjoy for the sake of the Torah?

M. Laitman: Except for man and all of reality, man, Adam, except for that, there is only the Creator. That's why we need to aim everything towards Him.

Student: The pleasure in the work Lishma is to enjoy the deficiency. And then enjoy for His sake, is to enjoy the filling? Or what's the difference?

M. Laitman: That, too, correct, that, too.

Question: (Petka Tikva Center): (01:19:16) The connection between us, you can find this confidence. There’s something that’s calming and gives us a feeling of society in the surroundings, the environment. What’s the next step that we have to do in the connection so that it will be Lishma?

M. Laitman: You need to connect all of your desires, intentions, thoughts, passions, to the Creator only.

Student: Meaning, I don't understand? How all those intentions and desires or all those that are aimed towards the Creator?

M. Laitman: No, to connect all of them.

Student: Can you connect them all to Him?

M. Laitman: All the desires, passions that each one has, that they'll all be directed towards the Creator only.

Student: How do we stabilize this specific, precise direction of the Creator?

M. Laitman: That is the work of the heart; the heart has to be aimed towards the Creator.

Student: But by what, by the society influencing me? By me trying to influence the friends?

M. Laitman: By connecting to everyone so that common desire will be directed to the Creator.

Student: How to make that in order to that reason, make it bigger in that direction?

M. Laitman: I don't, I don't want anything but that.

Student: There is a certain measure of that direction, of that cause, of that reason, and so I feel it in me. How can I make sure that it will be the main thing, that it will control all actions and thoughts in me?

M. Laitman: It's in you, so be concerned that that's how it's going to be.

Student: Do anything that's possible.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:22:17) You said that if a person changes his internal qualities, he feels that from the Creator good comes from him, pleasures. And there are two states for a person: He either tries to change something outside of him, in the friends and this and that; or, that he's changing himself. Why does a person each time fall and get tempted to change others and not deciding once and for always that the change needs to be in him?

M. Laitman: The Creator wants a person to have a whole desire. That's why He doesn't give it to him yet, it's only partial.

Student: What needs to happen for there to be a complete desire to change me and not others? Why is there even this illusion that someone else needs to be changed?

M. Laitman: That's something that when a person's soul isn't completely corrected.

Student: Because I see quite a few friends fall on this, also in the Ten. How do we help one another to complete it so that the change will be in us and not in others, not in the friends?

M. Laitman: Yes, we need to make sure that my intention will be entirely to connect me to my friends.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:24:18) From now until the Correction, there is a path. This path can be a path of suffering and it can be a path of an increasing fountain that's increasing and increasing. What goes with the Ten that makes the path from now to later – from more to corrected – which is from one triumph to another? How does this work in the suffering and the sufferings? And emerge to, how does it work so that that will be the reality?

M. Laitman: Only when everyone is directed towards the correction and only want to do everything for the sake of the Correction. And in this way help each other.

Student: How do I acquire from my friends this yearning for that instruction that you gave? How do I acquire, precisely, so that I look at my friends and I see that they're burning to reach correction and to live it as much as possible from one triumph to another? How do I acquire that from them?

M. Laitman: Being envious of them.

Reading: Item 3 (01:26:16)

The answer to this is written in The Tree of Life—“to bring to light the perfection of His deeds” (The Tree of Life, Branch 1). Yet, we must understand how it is possible that incomplete operations would stem from a complete Operator, to the point that they would require completion through an act in this world.

The thing is that we should distinguish between light and Kli [vessel] in the souls. The essence of the souls that were created is the Kli in them, and all the bounty that He had planned to impart them with and delight them is the light in them. This is because since He had planned to delight them, He necessarily made them as a desire to receive His pleasure, since the pleasure and delight increase according to the measure of desire to receive the abundance.

Know that that will to receive is the very self of the soul with regard to the generation and elicitation existence from absence. This is considered the Kli of the soul, while the joy and the abundance are considered the light of the soul, extending existence from existence from His self.

M. Laitman: Clear?

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:28:23) If there was already a reality in which His thought alone is enough to complete and He doesn't need our vessel of action. Then why it's as if it's a stage in which He doesn't need a Kli in there? A place where everything is whole, complete already without a gap between the light and the Kli?

M. Laitman: Towards the Creator?

Student: Towards the Creator.

M. Laitman: We're not speaking about towards the Creator.

Student: But he's saying that we can attain this. To begin with, there was no need for a vessel to do what we do. It's something that we do.

M. Laitman: So?

Student: Why, nevertheless, did he create a reality where the light is advantageous to the darkness?

M. Laitman: That's for us.

Student: But, seemingly, He could have created different laws; but he also writes that if reality in itself is that the thought completes everything. And it doesn't need a vessel of action?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: Then, seemingly, the advantage of light out of darkness, that law, that rule, is not necessary.

M. Laitman: Yes?

Student: So, why, nevertheless, did He have to create a reality of a light and a Kli?

M. Laitman: You're speaking about a state that came before creation.

Student: A state where, Ein Sof, it says that His thought completes it all.

M. Laitman: We're not discussing that.

Student: He talks about this from the point of the attainment of a person? He is not taking on behalf of the Creator, right?

M. Laitman: Yes?

Student: Meaning, eventually a person discovers that He didn't need to create, that His thought completes everything, and a vessel like us was not necessary?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: So, why did he enter the law of the restriction?

M. Laitman: It's all in order to raise us to His degree.

Student: That is understood, if there was no reality that is above this law. That, seemingly, in the end a person attains that he didn't have to, that wholeness would exist even without, and to begin with he was in wholeness.

M. Laitman: Yes and the created beings.

Student: So, what created beings? When the created beings attain well, the state that an action like us did not need to do it but the thought would complete it all, that the state was whole and it remained whole and never shattered?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: So, seemingly, there's a clash, here.

M. Laitman: There's a contradiction because you're forgetting that all of reality is only towards us and not towards the Creator.

Student: But towards us, we eventually attain that everything was whole always and it never shattered, and it was all towards us.

M. Laitman: No, where do you discover that?

Student: Here he writes that in Him, the thought itself completes and there's no need for a vessel like ours.

M. Laitman: Yes, that's for Him.

Student: What do you mean, in Him? In Him, it's that the person attains that it's like that with him. So, a person does attain such a reality, then? That the vessel and the light even though they're different, still they're sustains. Just like it's written in other places, and all his might and all his abilities and other places.

M. Laitman: I don't understand what you're asking?

Student: That the restriction was not necessary.

M. Laitman: How will the created being discover its deficiency?

Student: That's very understood but, eventually, he does discover that there was no restriction and there was no concealment, and everything was complete to begin with. There never was a disconnect so if that reality is possible seemingly in different laws where there is no deficiency in a vessel and a light. So why did He from the very beginning of this law of light and Kli, the restriction operates, everything's clear, that you can't without that.

M. Laitman: Yes?

Student: But here he's describing a state that's even before that, that is above that. Where eventually a person attains it – that there was no restriction and there was no concealment – and everything was whole,

M. Laitman: Yes?

Student: So, if there's the possibility to create reality with that law, now with the law of the advantage of light out of darkness, why didn't he create it that way?

M. Laitman: Don't have an answer, I don't have an answer. I agree with you.

Reader: (01:34:53) Do you what to hear a question from Moscow, there’s a big group there?

M. Laitman: Yes, Moscow, please?

Question (Moscow): (01:35:08) The question that the friend asked about everything being already in the thought of creation. There's already someone that's enjoying everything, satisfied from everything. If you could answer, can we say that the interaction of the Creator with the general person happens in the system of Arich Anpin? And there's also the individual expression and that's something that we don't see?

M. Laitman: It's kind of complex but there's something in there.

Student: How is the quality of a person expressed that we have to hold on to the whole Ten, together?

M. Laitman: That quality is only revealed in the world of Atzilut.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:36:26) What does it mean to bring to light the perfection of His actions?

M. Laitman: To bring out the wholeness of His actions; that means to be revealed before everyone that the Creator is the source of everything and the purpose of everything. And except for Him, there is no other force working.

Student: What does it mean that His actions are complete?

M. Laitman: Complete, that even if it seems to you that in His actions there is a lack of wholeness. You keep going and you'll discover that it all comes from the final Completion.

Student: And, we, who now want to all enter Lishma, what does it mean for us to do good to His created beings?

M. Laitman: That all the Creator's actions are in that direction. They come from doing good to His created beings and they bring all of creation to the state of doing good to His created beings.

Student: From Lo Lishma, it sounds as one thing, and from wanting to come close to equivalence of form, it's something different. For us, at least for me, it's perceived as not clear but it means that from Lishma we want to receive that feeling that He's Good That Does Good.

M. Laitman: We want the Creator to reveal his relation towards us, the Good Who Does Good; from us, wanting to give Him contentment by that.

Student: Nevertheless, the first restriction is not canceled until the end. So, what happens with that part that remains without, that remains restricted? That part that He's not doing good to? What needs to be done with that part?

M. Laitman: I don't understand, what part remains?

Student: There's a part that's under the restriction, let's say the desire to receive it in phase four, let's say. That remains restricted to the end?

M. Laitman: Forever.

Student: Right, so that part needs to be in what state?

M. Laitman: It has to remain that way.

Student: How is it to do good to His creations after it's dead?

M. Laitman: By doing good to the created beings, there's a condition that it will be for their benefit. And if it doesn't come through the restriction, it's not for their benefit.

Student: That part that remains without correction, without filling, what are we supposed to do with it?

M. Laitman: The part that remains without correction or fulfillment?

Student: Yes, let's say the desire to receive in order to receive. It needs to be restricted.

M. Laitman: So, what? It annuls, it cancels; after the general correction, it cancels.

Student: And until then?

M. Laitman: Until then, it remains empty.

Student: We need to always be above it?

M. Laitman: Yes, we don’t agree to use it.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:40:48) To understand better what he's writing: What's the addition the soul has upon the parts of Adam HaRishon?

M. Laitman: The Partzuf of Adam HaRishon is a part that was created from above. The soul is the desire to receive that rises from below. And in accordance with its equivalence with the state that it rose to, it gets filled with the upper light, which is called, its soul.

Student: For Adam HaRishon, was there a reality of souls? Or is it only in the shattering?

M. Laitman: Only in the shattering and not immediately.

Student: What's the difference between the state of Adam HaRishon and the state of Ein Sof? That when the soul assembles itself, where does it, or what state does it reach – the Partzuf of Adam HaRishon or Ein Sof? What does it put together?

M. Laitman: What is it putting together?

Student: It builds Partzufim in order to give the Creator contentment. It performs couplings on the will to receive.

M. Laitman: Yes?

Student: So, by that, it puts together the Partzuf of Adam HaRishon or the state of Ein Sof?

M. Laitman: We can't say that it's putting together the Partzuf of Adam HaRishon that way.

Student: What state does she come back to?

M. Laitman: Where are you taking this from?

Student: We learn and we pick inside ourselves; that's what I'm asking from.

M. Laitman: Again?

Student: The soul that wants to give contentment to the Creator. It feels its own will to receive, an external will to receive, and tries to get pleasure for the sake of the Creator.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: I'm asking about what will to receive does she have an approach to, to the whole will to receive or?

M. Laitman: The desire to receive in order to bestow.

Student: Yes, but eventually, will it be upon all the will to receive that the Creator created?

M. Laitman: A part of it can be.

Student: The quality of the actions of the soul is in the intention? Or the size of the will to receive that it's performing the couplings upon?

M. Laitman: Quality.

Student: The quality of the action of the soul, is it in the intention? Or the size of the will to receive that it's performing the couplings upon?

M. Laitman: That's the same thing.

Student: Why is it the same thing?

M. Laitman: Because in accordance with its intention, desire; that's how she performs couplings.

Student: How does a soul that it's the most internal thing of reality according to what I understand and what's written,

M. Laitman: Well, well?

Student: How eventually it can it feel everything, everything the Creator created above it? There's so many worlds and Partzufim, and how specifically can the soul, does it have approach to this whole system?

M. Laitman: That I don't quite understand.

Student: He says everything is included in the soul.

M. Laitman: Yes, yes?

Student: How can it be there's so many upper degrees upon it?

M. Laitman: No, there's no more than five Partzufim in each world and there's no more than five worlds?

Student: What does it mean that everything's included in her? What does it mean?

M. Laitman: Everything's included in her? Show me where it's written.

Student: He wrote that everything's in a person so that's why I started asking about the difference between man and a soul. Because we're parts of Adam we're souls. So, you could write that everything's included in the soul. So, what does it mean that everything's included in the soul ?

M. Laitman: The soul surrounds everything and eventually the soul is what attains everything.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:46:17) I feel the friend and he asked questions, I'm trying to phrase it: During a person's life, he corrects whatever he can with the friends and everything. But still, there's a certain amount of corrections he makes. Eventually, Before the Creator, there's a desire to do good to the created being – that is huge. What about those things he didn't finish correcting; there are desires that will stand corrected. But eventually the purpose of the Creator is to do good to the created beings on everything. So, what about those same desires that he couldn't correct?

M. Laitman: Then others correct them, it's the incorporation of the souls. Others correct.

Student: So, in the end, from all the incorporation of all the souls, all the will to receive that the Creator created. Created?

M. Laitman: Yes, created!

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:47:25) I heard you say that in Lishma, I'm enjoying giving joy to the Creator.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: How do I know that I'm giving Him joy?

M. Laitman: You see it, you feel it.

Student: I feel it?

M. Laitman: Because you're in Lishma.

Student: Where do I feel it?

M. Laitman: In the same place that you're bestowing.

Student: In the will to receive?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: Not in the vessel of bestowal?

M. Laitman: The vessel of bestowal is, also, the desire to receive.

Student: The screen and reflected light is considered a will to receive? Is just a different form of the will to receive?

M. Laitman: Yes, a different form.

Student: A person really needs to – well, the question is how does this not become reception when a person enjoys bestowing to the Creator because the Creator is enjoying. How does it not throw him into the will to receive in order to receive?

M. Laitman: Because he does it all with the reflected light.

Student: So, how?

M. Laitman: First, he performs a restriction and rejects, and clothes what comes to him in reflected light; and then receives it in order to bestow.

Student: I understand the technique but how to practice it? What's the advice to practice it because that's a degree we want to go into. So, what's the best practice in order to do this?

M. Laitman: The best practice, exercise? Do exercises, exercises between you. Where each tries to receive only for his friend.

Student: For now, it's only in thought.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: That's enough? If I’m constantly thinking that I am giving joy to the Creator, giving Him contentment and so on. That's enough in thought, because it remains kind of?

M. Laitman: Try and see. Try.

Student: Can I ask another thing about the empty desire?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: Is there a reality of a desire that stays empty?

M. Laitman: No, there’s no such thing.

Student: So, also the restricted part will get a fulfilling of the light of mercy.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Reader: (01:50:17) About the exercise that each one wants to receive for the friend. What does he try to receive for the friend?

M. Laitman: What did I talk about?

Student: You said in order to advance to Lishma, we have to start doing exercises between us. And you gave an example that each one will only try to receive for the friend. What am I receiving only for my friends?

M. Laitman: I don't know, in order to help him, in order to share yourself with his Kli.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:50:19) I want to ask about the word, renewing or innovation. What's the approach because he says that the soul speaks about light and vessel. And the soul in order to receive, it gave the will to receive in order to give it the abundance. Then he writes that you should know that the will to receive is all the essence of the soul. On behalf of the innovation of existence from absence, it's considered the vessel of the soul. What is the word, innovation, that he mentioned here and what should our approach be?

M. Laitman: Because after the restriction, she seemingly shows herself more. She reveals herself as a Kli.

Student: What should our approach should be to that?

M. Laitman: What do you mean?

Student: I feel that from this word either you are far from the Creator or you change your relation and renew yourself every time, according to what he wrote here.

M. Laitman Well?

Student: I'm asking myself, what is the approach I constantly have to have?

M. Laitman: You need to be in an approach that you don't want to receive for yourself; and as much as possible to receive in order to bring contentment to the Creator.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:53:02) There's a feeling that there's three stages in a person: First stage, that a person can correct himself with his own forces; that the help of the Creator is concealed. Second stage, that he can't correct himself but only ask from the Creator to correct. And the third stage, that he can't even ask. And in that third stage, it's the complete pleasure to the Creator that he can correct. There's the whole recognition of evil?

M. Laitman: Okay.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:54:00) The intention to do good to the friend, is that the vessel to fill the Creator?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: So, in what can I do good to the friend? How can I discover what I can do good to him?

M. Laitman: With the deficiency that you discover.

Student: In my deficiency?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: I pass that to the friend?

M. Laitman: No, you fill the deficiency and from the deficiency, you fill the friend.

Student: In what do I fill him?

M. Laitman: With the upper light.

Student: First I need to ask, I need to ask for this force for him? Or for me I have to ask it?

M. Laitman: To begin with you need to be ready for this, yes?

Student: I have to be ready for it and then?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:55:10) To continue the friend: In the stage when a person can't pray anymore, what is the Creator expecting of him?

M. Laitman: Why can't he pray?

Student: The friend was saying about the stages, that first correcting myself and then, asking from the Creator. Then stage 3, he can't even ask.

M. Laitman: I don't know. You can always ask the Creator.

Student: So, just to extend that request?

M. Laitman: Yes. Yes.

Student: About this exercise to ask from the friend, is there a state in the Ten that a friend doesn't have his necessities. And it's a state that's been going on for a while, and I think that in the Ten, we did more or less to what we can understand, prayed, tried to help physically. To do all kinds of things in this world, we tried a lot and it's not changing. What can we do? We tried, it's not that we started yesterday, it's been going on for months.

M. Laitman: I don't know, you have a Ten, you have a big group, you have a management. I don't know what you're doing.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:57:04) He writes, according to the desire to receive the abundance, the pleasure will grow. What is the will to receive the abundance? What does that desire want?

M. Laitman: To fill itself.

Student: What's the abundance?

M. Laitman: The abundance is the upper light that comes from the Creator.

Student: And when this desire, usually we don't feel the abundance around us. Even when we're in the morning lesson, there are friends around us from the Kli. In abundance, that sometimes we feel for a moment that the Creator opens up, and then you feel kind of a gratitude. So, the question is after the feeling of gratitude, comes a feeling that you want to pay for it. And I want to ask, what can a person pay back when something small is already revealed to him?

M. Laitman: By bringing pleasure to the Creator.

Student: By giving the Creator pleasure, he will pay for it, the Creator gave him something. Can he know – I believe a person can know – how he can give pleasure to the Creator because there are so many possibilities?

M. Laitman: We have come to the end of the lesson.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:59:11) About the abundance: Can we give the will to receive the abundance according to the degree it’s on? Or can we also eat lettuce at a boutique restaurant?

M. Laitman: I don’t hear?

Student: Can we give abundance to the will to receive according to the degree it's on?

M. Laitman: Yes?

Student: And is it an obligation?

M. Laitman: What do you mean, is it a must? On behalf of who?

Student: On behalf of the person receiving. If he sits in a fancy restaurant, he must eat a steak or can he have lettuce?

M. Laitman: He has to eat a steak. That's it, we're done.

Reader: (02:00:15) We are going to go to the next part, studying between the friends from TES transition.
