Part 1:
All your actions will be for the sake of the Creator - Selected Excerpts from the Sources. #8
1. Rav’s Introduction: This is called that the person is in Lishma, for her sake, that all the opportunities that come before him he can aim them to the Creator, and he has no one else to aim himself rather for only his heart to be aimed towards the Creator. And, for him to do everything for the benefit of the Creator in order to bestow and delight Him and only for Him. This is called Lishma; this is called for the sake of heavens, it is called in order to bestow to the Creator and so on. There are many names for it but the subject matter, the essence is one. A person does not receive anything else but the Creator before him and only to Him he sends all of his deeds and all of his thoughts. This is what we have, so let's see what Rabash writes about it.
Reading excerpt #8 (01:36) “If he begins to work for the sake of the Creator..”
2. R. (03:33) Yes. This is what happens to a person if he comes closer to Lishma, for her sake.
3. S (03:49) How do we work for the sake of the Creator if he doesn't have the greatestness of the King, that is how he opens it up?
R. How can he work for the sake of the heavens if he doesn't have a King? He cannot work that way.
S. Rabash writes, if he begins to work for the sake of the heavens…?
R. As If he wants to work for the sake of the heavens and then he realized that he cannot do it if he doesn't have the greatestness of the King, if it would appear in his heart in mind that he has a great King that he wants to work for Him and not to leave anything for himself. Then he sees that he still missing the recognition of the greatness of the King that it does not let him rise to the degree of truly for heaven's sake; that all of his desires forces and thoughts will only be for the Creator and not any for himself because he himself does not exist, he disconnects from himself and insert himself fully to the Creator, and only in such a way he sees his state, his existence.
S. It is not clear what kind of work it is without any conditions, it doesn’t feel like any desire cannot fit this kind of work?
R. You try what we are talking about so that you will truly have constant work where you will be chasing after the recognition, understanding and feeling of the greatness of the Creator. Where it will all be before you and you want all of your thoughts and desires to send to Him; and only His greatest, that He is the One and the only One in reality, where there is no reality without Him and only him. So, if you depict Him in such a way you will see that there is none else besides Him and then nothing remains for you but to see reality in such a way.
4. S. (06:35) And when he sees reality this way what should he do then?
R. To nullify, which is the only result that remains for him and that is it. Then he can completely work for the sake of the Creator.
S. And that is the work, to annul and let Him do what he wants?
R. What He wants?
S. To annul before Him?
R. To annul before the Creator upon all the disturbances; our will to receive and other things. To annul before the Creator is all the work because that is the Truth; that only one force operates in all of reality and all of the disturbances that are there, are specifically for you to rise above them to cancel them and to say that the fact that they exist it’s a lie, they don't really exist, and you want to adhere to the One True Force.
S. This is called adhesion?
R. This is not yet adhesion but you're going to attain adhesion.
5. S. (08:05) In principle we are establishing our work in the ten on the principle of the greatness of the Creator, that the Creator is important to us and so on, and in this except he's talking about the second stage where a person has to avoid or to run away from the greatness of the Creator, how does that stage looks in the work of the ten?
R. I cannot tell you anything. I'm trying to build the greatness of the Creator in the ten, such that we will all want to come to this revelation, that's only the Creator dwells there. And all the qualities and thoughts that are in me I cancel them all in the matter that I want to be connected in that one upper force that operates in reality.
To stabilize it as clearly as possible upon all these disturbances, specifically those disturbances, that is how I advance towards clarification of this form of One Force that controls all of this reality will be clearer. And I'm more and more connected to Him, this is all through the scrutinies; by me thinking about Him, isolating Him from all of the disturbances, distancing the disturbances and scrutinizing the states so that what remains after the scrutiny is only One force which exists in all of reality. That there is nothing else besides Him.
S. It says here clearly that the person has to avoid, to run away from the greatness of the Creator so how can I do it in my ten while we work as we always raise the greatness of the Creator? What is this degree that he is talking about here and how can we implement it in the ten, I did not get it?
R. I want to feel in each ten that we do not have any goal other than the feeling of the greatness of the Creator that will rule us, and the more concealed it is the more I will try to reveal Him more and more. Not Him, but to think of Him as the greatest one; the One who includes all of reality.
6. S. (11:44) When the greatness of the Creator disappears and we are trying to build it, there is a feeling as you have lost all connection with the Creator, it is not clear through what to touch this Force as if they took the ruler away from you and you don't know if you're betowing or receiving? You seemingly lost, what is the new measuring instrument for me? What constitutes the connection with the Creator if I have to build this connection with the Creator where He does not exist?
R. There is one force in reality that is concealed from you and you want to discover it and you cannot do it for the time being.
You do not know how to aim yourself towards Him and in this way you will come closer: Imagine to yourself that there's One, unique, special force, the Good that does good, concealed from you in every way and how you can reveal it? and how can you with all your thoughts and deeds aim yourself towards Him, specifically to Him, only? Think about it and try to be aimed towards Him and come closer to Him each time more and more. That is how we do it.
S. I do not want the greatness of the Creator to be revealed; it is as if taking the freedom of choice. How to work with it, what is the current connection, you have only the friends and the intention or some yearning?
R. Look for it, search for it. Search, what it means to be aimed towards the Creator? That is the question.
7. S. (14:38) At the end here he says even though you see and believe in only a small King a person should still say, to me you are a great King, why should he say it if he does not feel it, why should he say it he is not tricking the Creator is it a psychological thing?
R. No, he needs to get to this. He needs to year for that, to want, to see that the Creator is the King of the world. Meaning that there's nothing else but Him and he's going to come closer to Him, to connect to Him and by this he sees He’s whole purpose, His whole goal. That all the rest are degrees of still, vegetative and animate and the degree of speaking is where he constantly yearns to reveal the Creator; The One who rules over all of reality also upon still vegetative and inanimate.
8. S. (16:02) If you take out the greatness of the Creator which is a great thing, we use it to advance towards Him, in that case all that is left is what remains underneath which is the will to receive?
R. There is nothing besides the will to receive. We have in us the will to receive and we see everything inside the will to receive. Only the desire to receive we appreciate, we live within it, measure through it, everything with the desire to receive. And now I need instead of relating to my desire to receive; to begin to relate to the force of bestowal that is outside of my desire to receive, and that is the Creator. And I want to attribute, to send all of my thoughts and desires to be aimed at Him, to the Creator, which is outside of my will or receive, outside of me. Is that clear? Help me say this in a clearer way, I am willing. And, then if I will be aimed in such a way to the Creator, that is called Lishma. That is actually the correct thought, the correct direction for the desires and thoughts of mine. Meaning If I weigh myself fully in such a way it is considered that I have reached the end of correction; because I did it all upon my thoughts and desires. Do this as compact as possible, concise and short and then you will not error.
S. In that case when we pay attention to the fact that there is none else besides Him when we reach that feeling in this way are we seemingly already in Him?
R. We are always in Him, in the Creator, we just don't identify Him. Because there is none else besides Him; and this Force includes all of creation and what we have also seems to us that there are other forces it is on purpose, He plays with us in such a way in order to develop in us the sense of recognition of evil whereas everything besides Him is evil.
9. S. (20:04) Why is it that through his greatness my vessels of reception do not receive any fulfillment, that I can be bestow in this way?
R. Yes it is all for your benefit in order for you to choose between these two directions; these two opposing directions and be able to advance in the right direction according to your choice.
10. S. (20:38) There is an article that explains how you have a sword on your neck and who are you thinking about, the body or the friends, the Creator and this article explains it, that all the time no matter what is going on only faith above reason, it doesn’t matter what is going on in this body, the sword on the throat, only think of the friends.
R. I don't understand the question.
S. You asked for help.
R. Okay, thank you.
11. S. (21:31) In order to feel the Creator and the true reality do you have to be above reason all the time or this seemingly comes out at some point because it says seemingly but when we feel it, it will not be seemingly?
R. Those are two degrees. One degree is within reason and the other degree is above reason, I need to constantly advance to above reason and I need to constantly advance to above reason and this accordingly becomes my reason. That is how we come from Lo Lishma, not for her sake to Lisham, for her sake, from Lo Lishma to Lishma.
S. And this is going to be throughout the entire path or at some point?
R. Until the final correction.
12. S. (22:23) With these excerpts you have given us the opportunity to go for Lishma, for her sake and then you tell us that we did not even reach states of being servants of the Creator, how can we?
R. Lishma and being a servant of the Creator are one in the same; the servant of the Creator is the degree of Moses so do not get confused.
S. I meant that the will to receive says that we are in the first, begging stage and that we did not even start to understand that we are servants of the will to receive.
R. We are servants of the will to receive but we want to run away from under its control. We want to run away from its control; although we are under that control, it is the reforming light that illuminates upon us as the surrounding light and emerges us, gradually, to in order to bestow.
13. S. (24:08) You mentioned before that we advance according to our choice, is our choice to accept whatever the Creator presents to us with joy, is that our choice?
R. I cannot say that way about everything because there are many people and we are going through all kinds of states but mostly when we come to a state that all that comes from the Creator is for the good and we receive everything with love and joy. Above this general question I cannot answer any other way.
14. S. (24:56) Can we say that there is a collection of thoughts and emotions that are called the greatness of the King? How do we point to identify the greatness of the King?
R. How to point? I did not understand the question.
S. Is there a collection of thoughts and emotions that I can recognize that are called the greatness of the King?
R. That I do not have. I constantly am asking to have it. I'm constantly asking to have a desire, a thought, a feeling of the greatness of the King and for this to draw me and for me to give myself for it. What does it mean Lishma, for her sake? That the greatness of the king is revealed in me in such a manner that I am devoted to it, that I am devoted to Him where I do not want anything more except for the sake of the greatness of the King to do all kinds of actions in mind and heart.
15. S. (26:50) When the greatness of the King disappears we are left with a feeling that He is present everywhere. Can we call this feeling Lishma, for her sake, faith above reason?
R. Yes, let's say so.
16. S. (27:48) Why is it better to believe than to feel?
R. It is not that it is better, it is a completely different vessel. To feel is in the vessels of reception, to believe is in vessels of bestowal, it is in the force of Bina, faith, it is an unlimited vessel within which I can feel, locate such states that in the mind and heart I can never perceive, grasp.
17. S. (29:05) Is there a connection between detecting the disturbances as a means for advancement and the level of a connection in the ten?
R. We certainly can later locate this connection and see in what direction and in what states we have disturbances through and we will identify our lives filled with disturbances where there are those amongst them that come to us for us not to fall to the network of the Sitra Achra, to the other side, those that are there for us not to run away from the direction of the purpose of Creation and so on and so forth. Whatever appears to us as disturbances right now they are actually guidances. These are guidances towards the purpose of Creation, towards the end of correction. It is a long path, we do not see that it is aimed that way towards there exactly but that is how it is. Every disturbance, even the smallest one, corrects us towards the end of correction.
S. Can you say that the greater the level of connection in the ten the more you can recognize the disturbance as a means for advancement?
R. Yes, of course.
18. S (30:50) What is the greatness of the Creator in faith above reason?
R. The greatness of the Creator in faith above reason is called that really, it is the only force that operates in reality, which spins everything and arranges everything. There is none else besides him and he wants all of all of creation from its beginning to its end which he created in an opposite quality to himself to draw all of this reality to him, and then all the created beings even in their parts of still ,vegetative and animate, we will also feel a belonging to that force, the source and the goal of all creation.
S. What is the difference between the greatness of the crater in faith above reason and his greatness within reason, what should we transfer from?
R. Inside of our knowledge we cannot grasp the Creator. We can receive only the small illumination that comes to the vessels of still vegetative inanimate. To feel the Creator not what he does with us, we can only through the degree of development which we are then called Adam one who resembles him to resemble the Creator his called that I bestow to him back from what he is bestowing to me. I for my beloved and my beloved for me, and then it turns out that in such a way we enter into contact with him and we begin to reveal him meaning that we seemingly climb upon him and then I asked but for one thing. I only want his greatness to draw me and aim me in all the thoughts and desires in greatness. what does it mean greatness that I want to bestow to him simply to perform all the actions and deeds so that they will be aimed towards him.
19. S. (34:25) When we came to this study we had a dream or an idea what this study can bring us as if working in Lo Lishma. Now, we find ourselves in a state where we see that all that we hope to gain was a dream and we find ourselves working in the desert trying to find out how we can serve this wisdom. Is this the state that our teacher Rabash is trying to convey to us in this article?
R. We read if I am not mistaken yesterday or maybe the day before yesterday that the spiritual work takes 20 and 30 years until a person truly enters it and connects to it in a true serious and practical way. And there is nothing to do before that we will never the less have to continue as much as possible under the same framework that we are for the time being in and advance according to the framework.
Let's say you enter into a kindergarten and you grow up and according to the extent that to which you grow the kindergarten becomes more sophisticated and then becomes a school etc, meaning that there is nothing we can do that depends on our advancement that is how we will do it. We may have before us a few more good years before we reach Lishma and that is not something special. It is not that we are slow but rather that is our nature where as that’s how we need to change from the nature of the creator beings to the nature of the Creator. That’s it and through this we just need to participate and we will succeed I promise you. Whoever remains and goes we'll see this is how we advance and certainly it takes a few years but this is what is happening in us.
20. S (37:55) Am I praying for me to get his greatness in order to pass it on to my 10 or do I ask for the collective another words for my 10?
R. Both for the 10 and myself in order to pass it to the 10.
21. S. (38:30) In our will to receive, we have things that help us implement our will receive which are our five senses and the desire to bestow, are there also such manners that can strengthen us along the way in spirituality?
R. Yes the main thing for us as Rabash writes is the first point the first hold in Lishma after that first point if we continue with a greater understanding grater confidence better feelings we know exactly what to demand where although this is above reason but even above reason we are within the reason that is above reason meaning we know what to demand.
22. S. (39:46) How are all the desires and thoughts, how can we send it to the Creator in practice?
R. Whatever you think that you wish to send just aim just want to send it and the creator is in your brain in your heart that is what you were thinking even the thoughts that against the creator desires against the creator nevertheless he is in them.
S. Do I feel something do I think about something, what do I add to all the thoughts and all the desires to be certain that I'm aim to the Creator?
R. Through the friends. The Creator did not just create this game for nothing the friends you have to break the system of Adam HaRishon and give us this work in the connection between us in the Arvut and so on and so forth, this is also be would find the way to him without it we would not be able to do anything.
23. S. (41:07) We need to come to complete annulment before the creator, so what is the uniqueness of every friend in the 10?
R. He is like a Sefira in the Partzuf.
S. What does it mean?
R. He has a desire he has thought he has got his own role and he has got to be for the sake of everyone, he has to be for everyone let say like Malchut that collects all the Impressions from everyone and combines them together.
S. So, what is the annulment here?
R. I annul myself in order to assemble everyone inside of me.
24. S. (42:03) You just said that we need to change ourselves from the nature of the receiver to the nature of the creator, so what exactly is the nature of the creator to which we need to yarn and look at?
R. Love.
S. What is love?
R. What is love, I don't know you have to learn you have to learn this.
S. How will I learn?
R. From life, do you love someone?
S. Of course!
R. How should I explain to you if you love someone. I have nothing to say, the nature of the Creator is love. What is love you think of his beloved and he doesn't think about anything for himself except for how to fulfill his beloved.
S. Okay.
R. Good you see, you got something. Now, realize it.
Reading special inserted excerpt (43:40). "The Wisdom of Kabbalah and Philosophy" . “The wisdom of Kabbalah says It requires great sages who examine their hearts and study it for 20 or 30 years and only then they will be able to testify to it. […] For the wisdom is deep and cannot be revealed by testimony or by experimentation except to those believers who dedicate themselves to it with heart and soul”.
25. R. (44:24) Yes, let's say I'm studying for 44 years already. Before that I also studied but not with Rabash but this is the correction of the soul as eternal is the soul is we will continue to correct it.
Reading special inserted excerpt (44:59) “The focal point in the work of the Creator is the first footing”
26. R. (45:09) Yes, that is a great problem that a few years go by before a person can detect his footing in Lishma in the Creator. This is a place that is highly concealed. It is not clear we do not feel it if we do not have the vessels for it neither in the desiren nor in the thought so until we get this point in our mind and heart it takes time. Not only time, effort and the main thing about it is patience. We are in the hands of the Creator. We will do everything he demands of us as much as possible and will let him work on us.
Reading excerpt #9 (46:24) “One must do every possible thing in the world to attain for the sake of the Creator..” twice
27. S. (51:59) Can we say that the prayer person comes to he comes to from despair having no other way because even the connection gives takes his forces and he has no force and the only way to do is to acquire the force of bestowal?
R. Also true.
28. S. (52:25) He says in the excerpt that he cannot cancel himself, he can not annul himself but he can only agree to work unconditionally, what does that mean exactly?
R. He agrees to work unconditionally, he agrees that everything that comes from the Creator he is still confused whether or not it is coming from the Creator but if he also feels that if it's coming from the creator he is willing to annul himself completely.
29. S. (53:03) What does it mean that He puts the will to receive to death afterwards the will to receive that is standing up each time in a higher-level and needs to be intensified and controlled?
R. He actually fights against it as much as the will receive demands for him, all kinds of actions he wants the world to bestow through the group to the Creator he wants that to guide him, to direct him.
S. What does it mean to put to death the will to receive in practice?
R. That is the meaning of putting the will to receive to death, the will to receive remains, but it is not working in the form of for itself. Our entire work is in how to turn our action to in order to bestow. We have nothing more to do the will to receive remains even the shells and everything it all remains until the end of correction in the Achoraim (posterior) of all the Partzufim in the entire system and we only ask to have the possibility of working to bestow contentment to the Creator. Imagine you want, let’s all of us have this exercise all over the world. How are we all right now, how do we all think about doing something for the sake of the Creator. Take a step towards him that whatever we do we will be received in Him from all of our desires, all of our inclinations, that’s what we want to happen.
30. S. (55:30) From our work it is clear to us that we will not be able to beat the desire that there is a certain where each time we try to get to despair the will to receive will win each time and each time the question rises what can we do to shorten the process now, the question is whether the fact that we are thinking to shorten the process isn’t to puting the conditions?
R. We are not talking about shortening the process, where did you take those words I don't know.
S. Maybe the times to shorten.
R. We wish to connect in order to bestow to the Creator and replace it with such words like I was to shorten the process, I don't think it is bringing us closer to bestowal.
S. To get to the goal maybe is that we get to say?
R. Reaching the goal is confusing who knows how you imagine the goal.
S. What is the attitude we should be giving this thing, to this thing to let it be?
R. Reach connection from which we can bestow to the Creator. I detect in the group some wins that are not properly guided, think about it, talk about what is happening there.
31. S. (57:15) What is this condition that is put up on the person to do all the deeds that can be done in the world in order to get this degree of Lishma?
R. Anything I can do in order to come closer to the Lishma to bestow to the Creator.
S. Yes, but it’s kind of this is the classical claim of the will to receive. It says that you did not do all of that you could do in this world so you don't have the ability to pray and it won’t work first of all.
R. Why, the prayer it’s also comes closer, one praying is one of the most important acts in approaching the Creator in bestowing to the Creator specifically through the prayer.
S. Prayer here enters within the deeds that he is talking about?
R. Of course, as is the main deed, the main action you aim to the will of the Creator what else can you do; it is expressed through the prayer.
32. S. (58:25) You gave early two questions ago an exercise for us all to think about how we perform an action for the sake of the Creator and then you explain to the Zichon group of actually aim towards to connecting more in order to bring contentment to the creator, meaning that the intention for doing something for the Creator is necessarily intensifying the connection between us we do not yet have grip on the Creator what we have a connection between us and towards it and upon it we need to work.
R. The connection between us means that we are locating the Creator.
S. We need to work on the connection until the correct form of the connection will be revealed and then it will be revealed.
R. Yes.
33. S. (59:16) Today, many friends are going through states that they see that corporeality it is not worthwhile to work for the will to receive. What is missing to make that switch I'm thinking about the push for moving to bestowal?
R. We are missing the greatness of the creator that all the time it will be before our eyes. And all of that depends on how much the friends the whole group is aimed at it, and wants it to be this way even without talking let alone when we are talking for the time being it is important for us to talk about it as well and later on we do not even need to talk. Kabbalists don't really speak among themselves about the work of the Creator it is all clear it is all there already.
34. S. (01:00:45) If I do not see meaning my body does agree fully to work for the sake of the Creator but on the contrary if I actually see that the body feels how you can receive a certain pleasure from this and that is why it agrees, is it?
R. Think about it all the time, read your articles by Rabash, Baal HaSulam writes also about it and all of reality in our lives and our effort we have no other goal but to reach Lishma. What does it mean Lishma to bestow to the Creator, that’s it to bestow to the Creator, let us try to bestow to the Creator with everything we have each and every moment.
S. On the other hand if in this excerpt you go and replace all the for the sake of the Creator with the sake of the friends then the inner resistance begins, Is it worthwhile to pray to reach bestowal so that I will be able to operate fully for them?
R. Think about the Creator for the time being, get used to that from that you will come down in order to realize bestow to the Creator you will have to come down to the friends nevertheless from the friends when you bestow to them through them you bestow to the Creator.
35. S. (01:02:47) What does it mean that the greatness of the Creator leads the Ten?
R. The Ten has only one goal ahead of it to reach the greatness of the Creator so that their connections, their thoughts, desires, actions, will all be there all stem from their feeling of the greatness of the creator that is right before them.
S. How is the greatest of the Creator felt?
R. In the fact that he dwells in all the thoughts and desires of a person.
S. How do we create the atmosphere of the greatest of the Creator in the Ten even without talking without even physical connection?
R. If you think about it you will see that how much you are influencing each other with the feeling of the greatness of the greater and how it shakes you and moves you and progresses you into the state of fear.
S. Even when each is disconnected from each other when I think about myself in the grace of the Creator in the Ten?
R. Yes, it doesn't matter.
S. Another question, how does our bestowal assist the Creator? How does my Ten do for the Creator?
R. We want to make all our actions only in his directions for his sake although he does not need it but they want this to aim us.
S. How do we know that we are doing it for a certain result or is it just a matter of our exertion?
R. We will feel it as a result.
36. S. (01:04:42) It is written here it turns out that a specifically in the time where he sees that there is no hope that his body will agree in his own to serve the Creator then his pray is from the depth of his heart, how not to deceive or dilute himself to thinking that or even hoping that yes his body will agree to work?
R. It is written very simply and more and more and more.
37. S. (01:08:42) We learn that in the right connection in the Ten we discover the Creator. I want to scrutinize it in this angle. From all the transgressions and all the sins are covered by love the crimes are growing ego, the hatred, the restrictions and what covers is love and bestowal. Upon that point we say that this is the Creator is this correct? That He is revealed.
R. Yes, the Creator is revealed from within the crimes.
38. S. (01:09:45) Although there is no love within us, how can we receive the love of the Creator so that we can give that love to our friends?
R. That is also with the help of the Creator. He gives us the feeling of love in such a way that we will be able to understand and to feel the essence of that love and pass it on to others. It is specifically above rejection and hate and all kinds of forms. We will discover that this exists between us until we wish to kill each other. That is how it is the advancement of light from darkness. There is nothing to be afraid of. to be alarmed from the negative relationships that appear between us, at home, or work. in public, in the country. between countries in the world. All of it is to reveal the connection between us. There cannot be any good without that. That is why we need to relate to all of these things not with anger or hastily, but to understand that this is the world. This is nature. All the good is only revealed only from within the bad and the bad is revealed first and on top of it we reveal the good. There are many verses in that.
39. S. (01:12:01) He writes at the beginning of the excerpt that it is upon a person to do all the actions in the world in order to reach the sake of the Creator and then he can give a prayer from the bottom of his heart. It is not clear that in this world when I invest in something I demand a much greater reward than that which I invested. Why in our path the reward comes after so many efforts?
R. You cannot demand it because you don't have a desire for it. Do you have a desire for love connection, no. With what else can you turn to the Creator he has nothing else besides that He gives out only love, connection and completion. All that stuff we do not want it.
Reading #10 (01:13:13) “From Lo Lishma we come to Lishma…”
40. S. (01:15:05) How can we respond correctly to everything the Creator is sending us if it's painful?
R. We still accept it and we want to accept it with love because all of these things they come to us for correction even though it's above life and death, we still accept these matters towards correction.
41. S. (01:16:08) Does thinking of greatness of the Creator mean thinking of greatness of bestowal?
R. Yes, of course. The greatness of bestowal, the quality of bestowal, is greater than any other quality and all of the other qualities were created artificially and only in order for us, through them, to reveal the greatness of the quality of bestowal.
42. S. (01:16:40) In excerpt 8 it's not clear why a person yearning for the greatness of the Creator is called work for her sake and not a sort of reception that is similar to not for her sake.
R. Because a person doesn't think of himself there aren't results that are for the benefit of a person in bestowal, in correct bestowal.
43. S. (01:17:14) Is it not human nature to want to serve someone greater than Him?
R. It is an order to receive of course, it also gives a person greatness to the extent that I am connected to someone great but it's not Lishma, it is not for the Creator's sake because the actions themselves need to be actions of bestowal, you understand? Other than serving the great one the action itself is only in order to serve the great one.
44. S. (01:17:52) Is there a common denominator between the feeling of greatness of the Creator and a person building the screen?
R. When we start building a screen then we will see.
45. S. What does it mean that I can give the Creator in everything that I'm in? How can I actually do it?
R. It's all simply, through connection with the friends, only to arrange this with actions towards the friends and then you will see to the extent that you are in this or not.
46. S. (01:18:40) If all the thoughts are from the Creator what does it mean to send my thoughts back to the Creator?
R. That I am the one that scrutinizes these thoughts and I think of them that they are mine after I scrutinize them and the thought that I scrutinize and want to reach out to the Creator through that is what I'm sending.
47. S. (01:19:04) I heard we should bestow to the Creator in everything that we are in every moment, I still don't understand how to implement it. Is it enough that I'm thinking of them and wanting to bestow to Him?
R. Yes, it's enough to think, to constantly think how am I bestowing on Him.
48. S. (01:19:30) How can we ask from the bottom of the heart to bestow to the friends and the Creator if the will to receive is scared that it will lose himself and is trying to run from the work?
R. After the will to receive gets this fright and loses everything it has in it, then you begin to feel that you are entering the spiritual world.
49. S. (01:19:52) How do I ask for my friends to be in for her sake?
R. I want all of us to be in for her sake and above thoughts and desires and egoistic calculations of ours end there we will truly connect together and we will lose each one their ego and we will think about the actions, the states, the world, that it's entirely in bestowal.
50. S. (01:20:37) Are we in Lo Lishma, not for her sake, how do we know?
R. Thoughts for our own benefit, in any form, these are states which are not for the Creator’s sake, Lo Lishma, thoughts that are for the others and they are truly for the others not someone that's close to me or related but that are for the well-being of the others these are states of Lishma, for the Creator’s sake.
51. S. (01:21:12) You said a person wants to run away from the force of the Creator in order to not be his slave, so what's the difference between a state where someone aspires to be the Creator servant and not the ego and wants the Creator to control him, compared to a state that a person wants to run away from this control in order to not be his slave.
R. That's a little bit confusing but the main thing for us is that we won't get anything out of it, I personally don't want anything from it, only to give contentments to the Creator through the friends.
52. S. (01:22:00) If we are always in the Creator what seems to us is that He's playing with us and we recognize Him as evil so what's the purpose of the work that he's playing with us in such a way that we will see other forces?
R. I really don't know what to say, I don't hear a question, can you repeat it again?
S. If we are always in Him, in the Creator and it seems to us as if he's playing with us and we recognize Him as being evil so what's the purpose in such a way of the work?
R. What's his purpose that he's playing with us this way?
S. Yes.
R. it's an order to confuse us and force us to rise above reason, that's his goal, to force us to go above our egoistic nature where we will see that we cannot exist so he does all kinds of actions to awaken us, to force us.
53. S. (01:23:23) You recommended that we do an exercise where we all think of how to take a step towards the Creator in what should everyone make an effort today so that we can really take a step towards Him?
R. That I want to feel what lies within the friend and to connect with him, to adhere to him and to do all of the actions in order to help him rise from what he is to the degree of faith above reason to the degree of bestowal and that is what I want to do to uplift the friend.
