Part 1: Baal HaSulam. The Arvut (Mutual Guarantee). #20.

Reader: Hello friends, today we will be reading from the writings of Baal HaSulam, The Arvut article [Mutual Guarantee], continuing from Item 20. You can find all of our texts on kabbalahmedia.info as well as through the Arvut platform where you can send us questions live. Anyone asking a question here in the study hall is requested to stand up, hold the microphone close to his mouth, and to speak loudly and clearly and, of course, ask your questions succinctly.

Reading: (00:33) The Arvut [Mutual Guarantee] Item 20

But the end of the correction of the world will only be by bringing all the people in the world under His work, as it is written, “And the Lord will be King over all the earth; in that day, the Lord will be one and His name one.” The text specifies, “on that day,” and not before. And there are several more verses, “For the earth will be full of the knowledge of the Lord…” “…and all the nations will flow unto him.”

But the role of Israel toward the rest of the world resembles the role of our holy fathers toward the Israeli nation: As the righteousness of our fathers helped us develop and cleanse until we became worthy of receiving the Torah, for were it not for our fathers, who observed the whole of the Torah before it was given, we would certainly not be any better than the rest of the nations, as mentioned in Item 12, so it is upon the Israeli nation—through Torah and Mitzvot—to qualify itself and all the people of the world to develop until they take upon themselves that sublime work of the love of others. This is the ladder to the purpose of creation, which is Dvekut with Him.

Thus, each and every Mitzva that each person from Israel performs in order to bring contentment to one’s Maker, and not for any reward and self-love, helps, to some extent, with the development of all the people of the world. This is because it is not done at once, but by a slow, gradual development, until it increases to such a degree that it can bring all the people in the world to the desired purity. And this is what our sages call “shifting the balance to merit,” meaning that the necessary weight of purity has been achieved. They compared it to weighing on a scale, where the shifting of the balance is the achievement of the desired weight.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (04:11) How is it that if one of Israel performs a commandment, he refines the whole world? What's the connection?

M. Laitman: The connection is in the inner connection that there is between the people of Israel and the whole world.

Student: What is the inner connection?

M. Laitman: It's a connection that Israel, here, is like a representative, like something that emerges from the nations. And, therefore, what Israel do belong also to the whole world.

Student: Israel can represent the whole world, if they themselves don't even understand that they're representatives or don't want to be representatives? Can they still do it?

M. Laitman: Yes, yes, that's the whole matter of the reception of the Torah. We understand from this, that what we do belongs to the whole world.

Student: I'm now talking about us. How can we convince ourselves that everything we do, we do for the whole world?

M. Laitman: We see this throughout history where we say that it's a special nation. In what is it special? In that all the actions, and they are dispersed in all the nations. That's it.

Student: What could help each friend feel that responsibility? I've been hearing this from you for many years. And, in truth, in my heart, I hear it but, in my heart, I can't really feel that responsibility. It's too heavy, I'm responsible for the whole world, the whole world suffers because of me. All these sentences that we hear, it enters the mind, not so much the heart. How can we make it enter the heart?

M. Laitman: It's natural that the body does not want to accept but the fact that it belongs to the whole world is a necessary message.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (07:58) At the end of this Item, he talks about the scale, the weight, which will shift the balance to the side of merit. What is the weight he's talking about? What is that state where we know that this is it? We've shifted the balance?

M. Laitman: That's where each is responsible for everyone; and, therefore, we need to take into account the actions of each and everyone.

Student: Can we truly do this in the Ten by the time we reach the Congress because I feel the Creator is giving us something special here that we can take and carry on with, going higher and higher?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: Yesterday, we talked about it in the Ten and we talked about how we can come to the Congress with that power, that power between us, already.

M. Laitman: We need to talk each to the friends in such a way that it will touch his friend's heart.

Student: Other than talking, what else do we need to do?

M. Laitman: Besides that, just this article explains to us that we are all connected together and obliged to one another. And out of that, we need to also observe the whole Torah.

Student: We talked about this in the preparation for the lesson as well, this privilege that we've gotten, here. We need to truly see how crucial it is for each one of us to ask himself what he can do for all the friends, for the system that we are truly governing.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (10:41) What is so special in the written Torah that was given to us, the Torah of Moses, that prior to the knowledge of the enslavement in Egypt and the 600,000, it was not given in writing? And we have the archive written in all the languages all around the world. What is so unique and special in the development of the general, the development of the written letter?

M. Laitman: We need to receive this Torah, as we learned that our fathers received, our forefathers. And implement it as much as possible and extend it to the next generations.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (12:02) What exactly is the process? First, Israel understands their role, their duty to the world. And then from that point, they begin to connect? Or is it that when they begin to unite, then they discover their duty?

M. Laitman: In practice, it's this way and that way; it's truly this way and that way.

Student: Our duty to the world, is that what forces Israel to unite? And without understanding that duty, that doesn't happen?

M. Laitman: Yes, you can start in any state but to truly observe it, can be done only to the extent in which a person practically feels that he's connected to everyone, is in unity, and such an attitude of being as one man in one heart.

Student: The cause that forces Israel to connect, is that the Creator or humanity? Do Israel feel the need for Israel to unite? Or is it just a kind of an act, causing Israel to unite?

M. Laitman: Humanity attains this special force in its connection, which he presents to the Creator.

Student: Another thing, when he writes about each and every commandment that each one of Israel observes. Working towards the development of the people of the world, what does that mean? Is that the action of an individual, of the Ten, of all of us?

M. Laitman: This is an action that everyone from the individual to the general, observe.

Student: What power does an individual have in influencing the world? I understand the power of the group, the connection of the Ten. But what is the act of an individual which can influence the world?

M. Laitman: Each and every individual in the world adds more and more forces. His small forces, like sesame seeds that are weighed on a scale; whereas each adds.

Student: What exactly does he add?

M. Laitman: He adds forces, he adds purpose, he adds importance for connection. It's where each considers the others and gives the others the feeling of existence.

Student: In what do I value the others?

M. Laitman: I value the others by being together with them, nullifying before them. I connect to them and then can appear before the Creator with one desire, with one inclination, one action. And through that, I bestow to the whole world.

Student: The person is aware of this commandment he's observing? Does he need to be conscious of it as he does this? Or not necessarily so, the inclination is sufficient?

M. Laitman: From the very inclination, at first, and then a person starts to feel the actual action.

Student: Ultimately, does humanity need to operate the same as Israel in Lishma or does Israel act in Lishma, and they cover for the whole of humanity?

M. Laitman: Yes and no. At first, Israel performs the unification and, gradually, after them, all of humanity is drawn towards unity and that is the way everyone comes closer and reaches the goal.

Student: Does humanity need at some point to start working in Lishma? Or is it always trailing behind Israel, being operated by Israel?

M. Laitman: Humanity must continue the whole path after Israel, and it truly needs to be seen as the desirable goal.

Student: Humanity and Israel, Israel and the nations of the world, they go together hand in hand towards the goal? Or does Israel always walk first with humanity behind them?

M. Laitman: Always Israel first; always Israel first.

Question (Women South): (18:38) Do Bnei Baruch, even now during the stage of preparation, do we influence the world right now, already?

M. Laitman: Already today, of course, and also from some time now, and also today we are influencing the whole world, yes.

Question (Women PT25): (18:57) What can we learn from the roles of the forefathers with respect to our role towards humanity?

M. Laitman: As much as they in their connection operated towards the connection of the nation. To the extent in which they were adhered to the goal that was a necessity for them to do. And until today, all of this is happening.

Question (Women MAK): (19:49) What does it mean that the right of the merits of the patriarchs and the forefathers remains with Israel? How does it help us develop the whole world?

M. Laitman: As it is written, the fathers observed all the Torah, meaning all the work according to all the upper laws of nature, even before the Torah was given. And this is what was given to Israel. And Israel, to the extent in which they're capable to implement these laws, they try, and the Creator helps them. And that's how they cascade until they receive the entire Torah in the multitude of people.

Student: Meaning that the merit is the duty and the responsibility they passed on to us?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (21:12) He says that, on that day, “The Lord will be one and His name one”, and he emphasizes, not before that, not before. What do we do, here? There's a boundary, right, a line, and not before that. What is this about?

M. Laitman: He's speaking of the plan of creation where everyone comes to connection, and that's how it will be and not before.

Student: Yes, but he specifies, he says nothing will help you until you reach equivalence of form, as we learned. And also, we know that so long as we don't reach equivalence of form, we'll suffer. There's no equivalence between the light and the vessel, so it's suffering, it's suffering in the world. It's as though he's telling us, only when you do this, you'll have equivalence of form, and then, maybe, there won't be problems. According to what I understand, right now, nothing will help. We need to reach, well, not the end of correction, yet. But we need to be vessels, right, to have the light pass through us, as we say, so what is the idea, here? When I read this, I start asking, so, but how will this help alleviate the suffering, the pain from the world, because there's no equivalence of form between the light and the vessel?

M. Laitman: We operate not in order to run away from the sufferings but in order to cause the correction of the world by which we raise ourselves towards the Creator; and by this, cause Him contentment.

Student: Yes, but for the time being, you feel that there's suffering in the world. It's as if this was dropped on us, it's not that we agree with that. This work was laid on us – you need to do this and that. You see the suffering; we don't want there to be suffering. We want to reach equivalence of form with the Creator, so what kind of an education is this? It's always this paradox, I'm always asking, why do we need all this suffering? I mean, I know there's going to be suffering but there's no equivalence of form between the light and the vessel and, so, people suffer, people are sick, they go to hospitals. But, you understand, I don't understand how these blows relate to our attempts to reach equivalence of form with the light. It's as though there's no – how to put this – there's no equivalence of form, well, before equivalence of form. You just need to see some indication that we're going in a good direction. Because I see that we're suffering more and more, and again there's a mess here and there. How do we overcome that; how do we rise above this? How do we reach a state, where we don't see all the suffering in the world, but truly reach the state of "His name will be one, He will be one" and so on?

M. Laitman: We, nevertheless, need to continue and to see whether every day we can overcome with more forces than yesterday.

Student: Then, we will see less problems?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: What can spare us these troubles? How do we get rid of that, not to see that anymore?

M. Laitman: By trying today, to try to connect and all the acts of correction more than yesterday.

Student: So, a personal question to put to you: There are people who don't feel this suffering despite the suffering of the world? There are specific people who pass it by without seeing it?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: What do you mean, yes? Who are these people who don't see, are they above it? They don't see the troubles? Who are those?

M. Laitman: We call them, righteous.

Student: There are such people?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: Here, too?

M. Laitman: No.

Student: No? You said once that there were, now, no? They've gone?

M. Laitman: I don't want to talk about that today.

Student: But there are some, they're not dead?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: That's actually encouraging.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (26:42) I heard you say that a person needs to stand up and see that he's responsible for the whole world and to conduct himself, appropriately. How does a person like that look like, who gets up in the morning and is concerned for the entire world?

M. Laitman: You need from the morning to start on the work of connection. That is the actual base of our entire society and the base of the correction of the world. And to continue this way until the end of the day.

Student: How do you become a person whose entire being is concerned for the whole world? How do you become that?

M. Laitman: I don't find the words but as it was both now and it will be, where each and every one is responsible for the Arvut, connection, unity. The expanse of love in the world where we're all, each and every one, working on that.

Student: What will bring me closer today to that concern for the world?

M. Laitman: As you today as well make a calculation and take that sesame seed of yours and join it to yesterday's work of yours; and to all of ours, all of our work, today.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (29:25) The calculation with respect to bringing contentment to one's Maker, is that a certain degree on the ladder of love of others? Or does that have to exist on every degree?

M. Laitman: In every degree.

Student: How can love of others bring us closer to that need, to that calculation?

M. Laitman: Because the calculation ends by us all coming to absolute love and discover ourselves that way.

Student: Love is a way to measure that we received it from Him, that this came about as a result of our efforts? That love is our gauge by which we can measure, can feel, that we're coming closer to that calculation of bringing contentment to one's Maker?

M. Laitman: We need to try and come closer.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (30:38) It's written that when an individual of Israel observes a commandment to bestow contentment upon the Creator, he generates development in humanity. What kind of development does this induce in humanity?

M. Laitman: Humanity begins to hear about the desires to bestow, about connection. And it, gradually, is incorporated in it, enters in it and exists that way more and more.

Student: By observing a commandment to bestow contentment upon the Creator. By that, a light comes which causes this process? What exactly causes this development?

M. Laitman: Through actions in the study, we get closer to one another, all the people in the world. Especially the first group which is Israel, and this is how we measure ourselves. That's it, that is the line of our development in our existence.

Student: I'd like to be a bit more precise: The moment we connect together in the Ten with the intention to bestow, we don't include the whole of humanity with us in a conscious way. But it still has an effect, right, is there any work we need to do in that direction?

M. Laitman: To observe the general goal, “Love your friend as yourself”.

Student: Without taking humanity into account, then? Everything, just in the Ten, right? Not to think about that?

M. Laitman: I don't think so, I think you need to think about the whole world, about all of reality.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (33:29) I cannot say that I'm concerned about the whole world but our people, the people of Israel, I'm very much concerned about. But, with that, comes an understanding. We know that one who was high in spirituality after the shattering falls lower, the lowest, actually. We have the people of Israel, now, who have this strong, thick layer of the will to receive, absorbed from the nations of the world throughout the exiles. And somewhere at the bottom of that desire, in a dormant state, there exist points in the heart which potentially are the most powerful. To what intensity do we need to connect for the lights to penetrate through this whole layer of the will to receive of Israel and reach that point so at least a part of the people starts awakening? Or is it words and disseminations that doesn't suffice, we need the power of the light, and can we do this in the near future, maybe the Congress?

M. Laitman: We need to expect the upper light to bestow upon us every day and bring us closer to one another. And on special days when we especially unite, the light will operate more and we will feel the results of this, that's it. Now, we expect that every day all our actions will operate for connection and for the closure of the gaps between us.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (36:04) He writes, he writes the following: “The duty of Israel towards the world resembles the role of our Holy Fathers towards the Israeli nation, as the righteousness of our fathers helped us develop and cleanse until we became worthy of receiving the Torah”, and so on. After that, a bit later, he writes: “This is not done all at once, but through gradual progression, slowly, until it increases to such a degree that it can bring all the people in the world to the desired purity. This is what our sages call shifting the balance to the side of merit”. So, in both cases, he talks about purification, refinement. What is refinement? How do we do this, can you elaborate? How do we do this on a personal level, on the level of the Ten and the Kli?

M. Laitman: The gradual correction of the desire to receive that's in the nature of man to begin with, which we attain by the light of the Torah which shines upon us and illuminates us while we're studying, when we participate, during our activities, our actions.

Student: By this we leave an inheritance to the world, and they will receive that in their way?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (37:47) You said that we need to see every day how we grow more powerful than the day before. What does it mean to add, every day, more and more?

M. Laitman: Add connection every day and, as an outcome of that connection, we will grow closer to the Creator until we unite with Him.

Student: The feeling is that what you did yesterday is burned away, today you start, anew. You didn't do anything yesterday, you haven't done anything your whole life, actually.

M. Laitman: This is what he explains to us that this is very special. That this feeling, that this feeling has to exist.

Student: How do we measure how we grow from day to day, how we increase and overcome?

M. Laitman: The fact that I get up today and come to the lesson and I listen to the best of my ability, as much as I can, that's overcoming.

Student: Where is the inner act of overcoming?

M. Laitman: This nobody can see from the outside. Each one feels the extent of his abilities within.

Student: What kind of overcoming do we have to make in the lesson, right now? When a person is here?

M. Laitman: Overcoming. Why did I come here, for what reason? For whom, and so on.

Student: Is it correct to look for outcomes of our influence on the world? Or should it all go above reason, and I don't look to see how Israel influences humanity and so on?

M. Laitman: Again?

Student: Is it correct for us to look for the results of our impact on humanity or not? Do we need to work only above reason without looking for any results or outcomes in the world?

M. Laitman: We need to bestow an influence through our work, through our study, by our work towards the population of the world, in whatever way possible.

Student: What results should we look for in the world so as to know that we're doing the right work?

M. Laitman: The result is that we will all feel the necessity in Arvut, in coming closer to one another. And that the end of the world is the end of the development of the world is that all the people of the world connect, together.

Student: When a Kabbalist is worried about the world, what does he feel? Is it like a whole cloud or does he feel each nation to be a different child, perhaps? And sometimes he's concerned more with that one and sometimes with the other?

M. Laitman: That all depends on a person.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (41:51) You say that it all depends on the individual. Now, a person who comes to a group to study in a serious manner, first of all, goes through a stage where he focuses on this, on the work with the group, with Rav, with the books. And he doesn't pay attention to the world around him because he wants to, well, purify himself and to just be in the group. When does this stage come where, through the work in the group, he starts feeling responsible for the whole world because, otherwise, he's as if, enclosed in the group. How is it that through the work in the group, he starts feeling responsible for the whole world?

M. Laitman: It depends on the inner personal preparation in a person. There's those who feel it fast and there's those who feel it after a very long time and many incarnations.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (43:14) Can it be that, well, if a person feels responsible for the whole world, like you said, where he gets up in the morning and he needs to feel responsibility for the whole world. Maybe that can actually help him participate more with the Ten, not to miss lessons and so on?

M. Laitman: Yes, yes.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (43:53) We skipped over a part, here, which people don't notice, usually. I'll read it, he says, that the role of Israel towards the whole world resembles the role of our Holy Fathers toward the Israeli nation, as the righteousness of our fathers helped us develop and cleanse until we became worthy of receiving the Torah. First of all, what does it mean, worthy of receiving the Torah? Who's worthy, who's unworthy? How do you select?

M. Laitman: You have the article, “Matan Torah” [The Giving of the Torah], and that's where it's explained to you. To what extent we need to be together, that our connection will be suitable to that group that receives the Torah.

Student: Is there such a thing where people who study, even here, people who study the wisdom of Kabbalah, who aren't worthy, who aren't worthy of studying Kabbalah?

M. Laitman: That depends on them.

Student: On whom?

M. Laitman: On those people.

Student: Who are not worthy, what does it mean, unworthy? What does he do that is worthy? Or what does a person do which is unworthy? How do you receive, how do you receive that quality? How do you notice it?

M. Laitman: To be in connection. That's one man in one heart, to be in connection, in responsibility. The internal responsibility of each and everyone who wants to be connected with others in order to give them room to incorporate in one desire.

Student: Yes, but very often you shout at us, we ask you and you say you're not connected yet, you don't have connection. So, what we're not worthy of receiving the Torah? What is this about, what does it mean, unworthy? You make efforts to study. What do you mean by unworthy? It's as though you're being blamed, accused, you're unworthy of Torah, of the wisdom of Kabbalah. What does a person do to become unworthy? He makes efforts to connect, he comes here not to just hang around and enjoy himself. Why is he unworthy?

M. Laitman: What's missing for each and every one is a prayer to the Creator.

Student: Each one is missing a prayer to the Creator? What will bring a person to pray to the Creator? Problems, troubles?

M. Laitman: When he sees to what extent he is still not attaining.

Student: And then what, and then he's unworthy?

M. Laitman: Not yet.

Student: Even though he makes efforts to come here and study?

M. Laitman: No, he's advancing but it's still not a state in which he's already connected to everyone, correctly, and receives into him the part of the general Torah.

Student: So, let me understand: When we say that we're not Lishma, is that unworthy? And only Lishma is worthy? If someone is not in Lishma, is he unworthy?

M. Laitman: No.

Student: Only when he reaches Lishma then he's worthy?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: And for the meantime?

M. Laitman: And for the meantime, no.

Student: So, what do we do in the meantime?

M. Laitman: We pray.

Student: Just to sit down and pray?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (47:46) Now with your permission, I'd also like to read a bit here about who is worthy. Baal HaSulam writes, here, that it is it is the duty of the Israeli nation through commandments, Lishma as you said, to refine themselves and the whole world until they agree to receive that great work of the love of others, which is the ladder to the purpose of creation, which is adhesion with the Creator. And the question is when we observe “Love your friend as yourself”, is that equivalence of form with the Creator?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Question (Holland): (48:50) It says in the article, shifting to, let's say to a balance. What is meant, let's say, of reaching a balance point and how important is this finding of this balance point?

M. Laitman: The scale of balance, I think, we can depict it to oneself as there is an equal attitude towards everyone of connection, love. And, accordingly, everyone is drawn to come to the central equal place.

Student: Can we feel this balance point? Is it a point of measurement?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: Is it a tipping point so that from that point we need to throw it out of balance to the side of merits? So, what does that mean, from that balance point on? What is the shift, then?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: What is the shift, what are our actions after the balance point? We feel a balance point and then we need to tip it, let's say, to unbalance, to the side of merits? What is this action in our Tens and in the world?

M. Laitman: I think we need to come to such a connection, just as we learned in the previous articles, let's say, “The giving of the Torah” and others. That in the connection between us, in the Arvut between us, we come to such a state that we're not lacking a thing besides feeling the connection between us and the Creator with us in a complete manner.

Student: Can you say that our preparation, now, is actually looking for the balance point? And the Congress is actually shifting it to the side of merits?

M. Laitman: Yes, that's how we need to be. Trying and ready.

Question (Women Turkiye): (53:14) In spirituality, we need to connect and through our connection to benefit the whole world. What can I do when I see all these people around us suffering from injustice, poverty, violence. How can I help them to spare them this suffering?

M. Laitman: Be connected with all the rest of the members of Bnei Baruch in the world. And try, as much as possible, to pray and ask the upper force to draw us to Him. That is our work.

Question (Moscow 1): (54:25) You heard that we have to act so that the upper light acts upon us as we connect. But we learn something to the contrary, that the upper light helps us connect, so which one is right?

M. Laitman: As much as we want to come closer to one another and perform these actions, the upper light impacts us and brings us closer.

Student: We connect on our own, and then the upper light acts or is it the other way around? The light acts first and then we connect. Which is the cause, and which is the effect?

M. Laitman: It can be this way, and it can be that way.

Question (Kyiv): (55:28) Israel is in charge of the connection of the whole world. We have our own format of connection in the Tens. We are going to have a congress in February. What is the connection of the entire world? How can you picture that, explain it? Is it one big Bnei Boruch, a global Congress? How do you explain it to the whole world?

M. Laitman: We need to feel all our friends in the world as existing in one desire where they all connect in it. And we are drawn to the center of their Ten, to a degree in the center of the world group. That's it.

Student: So, when we say that we are in charge of the whole world, responsible, we are talking about the global group, not all people.

M. Laitman: Of course.

Question (Women Heb 1): (57:01) I heard at the beginning of the lesson that you told a friend that for the friends not to suffer, we need to do more each day than the day before. How can a person measure that because we perform many actions, we try to think, it's all very foggy. How can I tell that I've done more?

M. Laitman: Only according to your inner feeling.

Student: And at times when a person feels disconnected, he disconnects even from nonsense. What can he do?

M. Laitman: He should make a calculation of how he's going to exit this nonsense and not come back.

Question (Almaty): (58:32) It's written that the people of Israel must refine themselves and the whole world through Torah and commandments. And there's this feeling that we as that people, as Bnei Baruch, are the adapter, the interface between people and the Creator, we're servants. How can we do this better? To do it more efficiently? Or perhaps, I'm misunderstanding something.

M. Laitman: Every day, from the materials that we read, we need to take out, to take forces out of it, a clearer direction, a clearer goal, in order to not mistake and feel that we're constantly guiding our movement from yesterday to tomorrow.

Student: It follows that the world is raising a prayer, and we raise a prayer. And I can't stop thanking the Creator for the opportunity to do this – all the better, thanks to you. Do our prayers connect with those of the world, or?

M. Laitman: Our prayers are incorporated in one another and raise them.

Student: And it's just the connection between us, that helps all the people in the world?

M. Laitman: The connection between us.

Student: And so, it follows that we're like a company granting this service and bringing the Creator to the whole world, lowering Him down to them.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Question (Turkiye 4): (01:01:21) I'd like to continue the scrutiny regarding Lishma. So, on the way to Lishma, we discover the Creator's names, these are qualities of the upper light, as we've learned. And we, also, know that everything a person discovers in his reality, he discovers according to his vessels.

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: If so, when a person reveals the names of God, these names, do they later become not only God's names but the person's names because it's his own vessels?

M. Laitman: I didn't understand.

Student: When a person discovers, reveals the names of the Lord, he does so according to his own vessels, that's how he feels, how he feels that. So, after that, after I felt it, they're no longer just the names of the Lord. They're also my names, my qualities, right? Can we say that?

M. Laitman: Well, well?

Student: Because I see the Creator's qualities and I receive His qualities, assume His qualities with my vessels. And after that, I can feel pleasures, sensations, impressions from His names in my vessels. And so, after that, they're my names as well, right?

M. Laitman: Yes, you said, correctly.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:03:39) I wanted to ask, does a Kabbalist in every situation in life, make this calculation of how to give back to the Creator?

M. Laitman: Yes.

Student: What is it conditioned upon that we will also be able to maintain that?

M. Laitman: To the extent in which you want to bestow to the Creator, how important it is to you to how He bestows in return to us. And accordingly, you are concerned with the connection with Him, such that this connection will not be weakened.

Student: I wanted to ask regarding the Arvut which is a very great thing, and not about the whole world, just our society. We, Bnei Baruch, study Rabash's writings and he teaches us about love. So, I wanted to ask if such a thing exists, Arvut, with love?

M. Laitman: Love is connection. Connection has several stations; love is the possible connection. And we really hope that the Creator will shine upon us, and we, in His light, will feel what the discernments there are in connection.

Student: A few lessons ago, we talked about the degree of adhesion where we feel the Creator. The adhesion is it renewed each time, or does it come to the person all at once, and then he adheres to the Creator and the friends? How does that happen?

M. Laitman: It's renewed, the adhesion is renewed.

Question (Petah Tikva Center): (01:06:23) Regarding the Arvut [mutual responsibility] in the people of Israel, in the nation of Israel, and other places in the world, is there a certain degree of Arvut? Because you have hospitals and free education.

M. Laitman: That doesn't have to do anything with Arvut. It doesn't belong to it.

Student: Within Bnei Baruch, a person who feels that he just can't hold on. Does there need to be somewhere, some place he can turn to for support, for help?

M. Laitman: We talk about this, yes.

Student: Other than the Ten, a certain body that knows how to take care of these things. Let's say, sometimes we hear from the more veteran students that they need some support outside of their group. Someone who's a bit professional about it, knows their situation and can perhaps awaken them through Arvut.

M. Laitman: Could be. Of course, there's more to add, here, there's work. There's room for work.
