Part 1:

Winning the War - Peace among Friends. #68

1.Rav’s Introduction: Of course all the wars are inner wars. We all begin because man's heart is in collision between the two forces, plus and minus, good and bad, bestowal and reception and from this it spreads outside of our hearts, these forces spread out and this is how they manifest among people in the human society and further out of this source of separation on the degrees of still, vegetative and animate. We see the results in our world and everything and accordingly to the extent that we can connect these forces in us, in each of us and between us and to that extent we will also see how much we influence all of nature so that even those still, vegetative and animate will calm down, as it is written in the Torah with a story about the Garden of Eden, that there will be peace in the world, complementarity, unity and it all depends on our hearts. If we have this complementation then the laws of nature will change, and they will support each other, and we will see a different world.

Therefore, winning the war is winning within our hearts, there, is where we have to see how conflicting things are, how they are connected and support and complement one another. Let us read the excerpts, if there are questions, go ahead. I hope with this, we will finish with this topic and from tomorrow maybe we should move on to a different topic. We spoke enough about wars. We need to think how, with our vessels when we are drawn to connection, as it is written love will cover all crimes, we have to think above all the contradictions between us, only about the connection between us, because this is the future of the world, this is the correction of the world and if we yearn for this, then we will cause through our strength at least to some extent, we will cause the world to advance in this direction of complementarity and connection and unity in the whole world, in this world and in the upper forces.

Excerpt 68 (04:42)

2. R. (06:14) The Creator is the one who created separation between us, the revealing of all the differences that exist in the broken vessel of Adam HaRishon and we according to the separation and remoteness that he reveals to us, even repulsion and hatred between us, accordingly we need to try to demand of Him to create unity and connection and this is really our work. He reveals how opposite we are, how far we are, hateful of each other and we need to ask him to create connection. This is really all of our work, all of our war against what the Creator did initially. By this we come to a connection with Him, to nearing Him, to adhesion with Him, because we have nothing else upon which to create connection and nearing but only through those states of separation, rejection, remoteness, hatred, that we will reveal between us, that if to the extent that we reveal between us distances, let us call it in general, distances or remoteness, so to that extent we can turn to the Creator and ask him for closeness, connection, adhesion and embrace until we become as one among us and then the Creator is revealed as a result, He is revealed among us, as a result of our work.

This is why love covers all crimes is the direction of our work and we need to try to advance in this way. Therefore we have really no reason to blame one another in all kinds of arguments and conflicts that we have between us, between the groups, between people, between countries, it is all the Creator deliberately on purpose established it and the breaking of the vessel of Adam HaRishon. We must only remember that this is all the work of the Creator, the breaking and we, our work should be to turn to Him and ask Him to correct the shattering, to heal it by bringing us closer to each other and that he who makes peace above makes peace on us and in this way we will reach correction and by this we will also understand the work of the Creator that he created one vessel and broke it and our work, when we discover the shattering even just a little bit, we immediately remind each other that all of our work is not to get into the breaking and begin to poke in there what it is and what it is for but that it is the Creator who does it on purpose so as to pull us towards him and that is the main thing.

The more we do not sink into those states of separation, repulsion, contradictions between us but as quickly as possible come to ask Him to connect to make the connection and in this way out of the separation to sort out His name who is called Shalom, peace, pull out of this we reveal the Creator we sort Him out with scrutinize it and this is call the revelation of the Creator to the Created beings this is why it is impossible that something good will happen without the evil inclination without separation, wars and problems and it is impossible for there to be correction unless by us relating to what the Creator did correctly which is called I have created the evil inclination and we ask Him to turn it into good. The quicker we position ourselves and turn to the Creator correctly by this we bring Him contentment and He who makes peace above in His Heavens will make peace upon us and upon the whole world. So everyone precisely through this war through the shattering and their correction we approach the Creator until we all become as one bundle. This is really our work. Let us hope that we will not forget it.

Each one will become accustomed and all the revelations of wars, separation, conflicts, hatred, repulsion, we will not forget but accustom ourselves precisely in such states reveal the ability to turn to the Creator and ask Him for correction. This is the most effective thing in order to use the time of separation, the states of separation and in this way we will win the war. You cannot win it with force, as it is written the Lord is the hero in the war. The Creator is the mighty one in the war but if we turn to Him then what he did, He stops and then through war and peace we come to the correction of all reality but mainly it is through the correction of our distance between us to the Creator.

3. S. (13:55) It feels like the ten is falling into resonance with what is coming from its center, from the intention that is coming from its center. Can you explain what is going on here? What is the sensation of really wanting to unify in a certain feeling so what is happening in our work here when this feeling starts to spread throughout the ten?

R. By each one in the ten reminding each other that this is what we need to do, to pray for connection, that by this we win the war and by this we use correctly that state which the Creator created because other than breaking He basically didn't prepare anything for us and we need to restore all of those states of shattering by turning to Him into a state of completeness. The states of separation are revealed in us as unpleasant states so that we will be able to locate them, to sort them out and to turn to the Creator to find the reason for the separation which is not because it is unpleasant but because we want to be in wholeness like the upper force and that is how we approach the correction. They're scrutinies here that we have to go through from personal states where everyone feels how unpleasant it is, how I don't like it, how I do not get along with my mind and heart because each one, because of his state of shattering since Adam HaRishon, we have a situation that we are opposed to others so accordingly we have to find what we need to do in order to adhere to the others at least in the ten. Out of this we gather, accumulate some experience and approach more substantial connections on higher degrees where we have to develop more mind and heart than we have and this way we come closer and closer from the connection between the tens until eventually the whole world becomes as one bundle. We started with this; we are already in the process of the end of correction of the last generation. We have to continue with it whether we want to or not we will evolve in this way, reincarnate in this way and the whole world will change very quickly both through internal actions that happened in each one which are done by the upper force and also through external states that we are finding in the relationships between us.

4. S. (17:41) It is hard to understand what is this covenant of salt? What is this guarantee? Do we come to turn to the intellect like, get over yourself and do not fight with the friends? It is hard to understand.

R. We learn that we all come from one source, one upper force operates on us which wants to bring us closer according to our recognition according to our understanding our ability to understand that unity is the purpose of creation, the purpose of our correction and the covenant of salt means that we take these things that we learn as necessary, eternal, complete and that this is our work which cannot change in any way. Simple work, connection between us on all the degrees as much as they are revealed in us. For the time being we do not feel how we can be connected to each other in such a way that all of our discernments, our current discernments, disappear and we will feel in our connections a different reality, a new one which is called the upper world or upper worlds. They are all revealed according to the ability to connect among us therefore the more we unite, the more we connect, the more we will discover a new reality and the Creator who is in it and governs it. This is how we will advance it all depends on revealing the unity and the unity depends on how much we ask for it, for the connection for the unity, on top of all the forces of separation or states or incidence of separation that are revealed which this is the reason that they are revealed and therefore our whole advancement is on the left when we discover greater and greater separation between us but it is in a higher resolution, higher precision, deeper one more internal and accordingly we ask for connection on top of the separation to become revealed. This is already the right side and this way we go from left to right left to right that is how we advance. When we connect those two together we end up with the middle line and in it we always have to see ourselves as being in connection of both left and right and this is called faith above reason. The more the left, which is the qualities of Malchut, can rise to the right, the qualities of Bina and in this way we later, as a result, come to Keter. We build in us the image of the Creator out of these separations, out of this shattering we seemingly arrange out of these bricks, out of these separate conflicting forms we build the image of the Creator. That is the only way we can attain him and build him, and it is our doing. You have made me, that is what he says. From what? From you yourselves being broken. I broke you and I brought you to a state where you can now, within you, build me.

5. S. (22:10) Why does it write that it is a covenant against the intellect when it seems like it actually sits within reason?

R. I'm not sure exactly what you mean. Making a covenant means that even though I feel the two opposites and I don't see a connection between them and how one can support the other and my opinion is opposite from the opinion of the friends, to such an extent that we hate him as it is written in the Zohar that the disciples of Rabbi Shimon wanted to kill one another and it is not exaggerated, this is how they felt between them, that was the separation between them but along with it they fought against this separation and demanded the Creator to help them unite above the separation. This is called work in faith above reason. So the force of bestowal governed over the forces of separation, the forces of reception and by this they were rewarded with a great ascent so that all the secrets of creation were opened up to them that they wrote about in the book of Zohar and we have to try to follow in their footsteps and we have before us all of the conditions we are in 10’s we are in this method which is opened up to us as much as we can open it up and understand it and realize it. It is all here. Let's just press ourselves a little more towards connection and we will see out of the separation where it doesn't seem to us like we will succeed in attaining anything we will discover that there could be unity and connection here and in this way we will come to see a new state, the last generation, a corrected humanity.

6. S. (25:20) Can you please tell us how Kabbalists in previous generations, how would a Kabbalist renew the covenant?

R. We need to renew the covenant every moment because we all change every moment and all of us change. Each and every one of us has this internal spiritual DNA that evolves with the upper light which we are all in and it influences us and also by being connected to each other, so it is as if we are making these tiny but ceaselessly couplings with each other all the time in all kinds of forms of connection. We cannot even imagine how it happens but in our feelings and our intellect and all kinds of data, information, there is these infinite connections that we constantly have between us where we knead we do this kneading, we are basically kneading the Shechina, we are building it by constantly being and all kinds of forms of connection between us. Part of this work is done through the upper light without our participation whatsoever, some of it is done by asking and then the Creator the upper light makes these connections between us. This is how we make this infrastructure for revealing the Creator within the created beings where we become this infrastructure, that knitting, that fabric, that Shechina in which the Creator is revealed. So as we always learned there might be a few more new words but basically there is nothing really to explain in words. It is all according to our efforts and the efforts of each one to try to participate in this we need to participate in this as much as we can.

7. S. (28:20) What helps a person not forget that he needs to ask the Creator to connect us?

R. People will always forget it because every moment we fall into our will to receive that is bigger and bigger. It is renewed in us all the time. What can help us is what Baal HaSulam tells us, it is the Covenant between us, the mutual responsibility between us when we arrange ourselves in connections and care for one another. I would say that the most helpful for us is if each of us thinks how he can help the others because in this direction in this propensity in this disposition the Creator is with us, the Creator is with us and then it turns out that this way, to the extent that we come closer to each other in order to support each other and help each other in this Arvut in this mutual responsibility we are building the Shechina, divinity.

8. S. (29:49) Everyone is free to return to this bond of souls? there is no exclusion, expulsion, the heart compared to the good or the bad?

R. Everyone must enter this connection and build again, participate again in the building of the vessel of Adam HaRishon, that one desire that the Creator created and then broke on purpose so we would collect it all together and will come once more into one desire which is called as one man with one heart. This is called Adam because then the structure of the desire is completely similar to the Creator. From the perspective of the desire it is a will to receive completely opposite from the Creator but from the perspective of connection of all its parts in order to bestow it is similar to the Creator, that is why it is called Adam because it has the form of the Creator according to the connections that have been corrected among its parts but all the parts themselves are nevertheless the will to receive. This is why it is called Adam from the word Domeh, similar to the Creator.

9. S. (31:22) If you can remind us regarding the making of the covenant, how can we make it so that we remember it in the tough moments?

R. We need not try to remind each other about the covenant in a difficult state. We simply have to think about the covenant all the time and support each other in the ten so we will all think and feel, not in each of us individually what is happening but in the connection between us in the connection between us. So we always have to think about this and not wait for difficult times. There will not be difficult times if we constantly think about this so it will only be a blessing if times get a little harder because it will be a possibility for us to exert even more in connection.

10. S. (32:39) When we are working in connection with the ten sometimes a person can feel like they are misunderstood would you say that is also the same as the separation or hate and when we feel misunderstood do we pray to the Creator to help with our connection and maintain the peace or do we try to help the friends to understand us?

R. Both. We need to help the friends remember the covenant and we need also to pray to the Creator to help us keep the covenant and maintain the covenant, yes.

11. S. (33:47) In the effort to move from personal work to collective work I feel like I keep falling back to personal work. Is it natural and how to make these transitions faster?

R. It is not a matter of personal work, it is a matter of what you are praying for. All the work is the request, our request from the Creator. How do you organize this request? That you want to connect with everyone and out of this common desire to turn to the Creator, to correct the connection between you and you will be a corrected part for now in the system of Adam HaRishon, that is it. So what personal work is there here? The personal work is to ask the Creator to help us connect and to be an inseparable part from Him.

S. How to move from a personal request to a common request to the Creator?

R. So the personal request is when I pray for everyone, this is the personal request because one who asks for himself completely disconnects himself and throws himself out of the system and he does not count as existing. So the personal request that he asks for personally is for others and the general request is when we all connect together these personal requests into one request. Think and do not confuse us.

12. S. (35:53) How does the force of forgetfulness serve the purpose of creation?

R. It is not the force of forgetfulness, it is an upgrade of our will to receive that comes to us as new in order to be corrected.

13. S. (36:10) There is this adage of do not judge your friend until you reach his place. Recently I am seeing this picture that all of BB is going through this test now first between the two parts that represent the war among the friends and yesterday is something that was very concerning to me appeared that for friends it is hard to hear the explanation from Rav and people stop coming to lessons and start sending all kinds of things to each other like news and things instead of the greatness of the Creator and we spoke to some friends from these places with a great concern about how to keep the goal above what the body goes through intensely? It is hard for me to judge it because I'm not in it. How do we as BB rise above this and do this making of the covenant?

R. What we need to do is only pray for connection, complementation, love will cover all crimes and not God forbid to scrutinize in qualities or all kinds of corporeal discernments about what is happening between all kinds of people, groups, even nations but of course what is happening in all those conflicts, from conflicts within a person, through conflicts between people, between couples, between nations and in all of humanity these are conflicts that the Creator awakens. This is called I have created the evil inclination. This is creation, the revelation of the evil inclination every single moment from the most internal level to the highest, broadest, most expansive levels that cover the whole world, and it is all the Creator revealing it to the created beings.

In this it is called that He is the mighty one in the war because on the one hand He lays down on us these conditions of strife and we have to understand that we are receiving it in order to turn to him and ask him to create connection above this strife that we want to rise above the situation that we are in. Not that I judge others according to my intellect and my understanding and my heart but when we connect on a higher level than our egos because in each of us a different ego is revealed of course as a result of the breaking of the vessel and we ask for only one thing, give us connection. We are not asking to know who is right or who is not, no one needs to know who is right or not right because it is coming from the Creator and I must not look at the other as being my enemy that I hate him, even though the Creator is doing it, but opposite that I have to ask him to give me the opposite to give me the ability to compliment with everyone and only by this will we reach the correction of reality, when love covers all the crimes. Let us hope that we will come to it and everything that we said yesterday we need to do only one thing, if you didn't understand, ask for peace and complementation among everyone that is it. Only scrutinize what peace means, it is complementation above all the opposites.

S. What became revealed yesterday is that it is hard for friends to listen to Rav because friends have been on the path for many, many years and if they don't agree with Rav then how can a person continue? How does he elevate the goal? How do we as the world Kli see that we adhere to the path? It is a test for the rightness of the way for all of us.

R. I recommend not to immediately be overwhelmed by things that are happening within us. We are not little children anymore that just erupt in laughter or cry. We have to kind of establish ourselves in such a way that, lets process these things but scrutinize them not in a way of what each one is right about but rather we raise ourselves to a level of connection which is a higher level that induces the separation between us so that we rise to it, love covers all crimes. So the crimes remain, they become the coarseness of the degree and thus we rise to a higher level and there when we bring the broken pieces together then we come to a higher feeling and understanding. That is how we attain spirituality: love covers all crimes. Each time we attain the connection and the shattering, the contrast, the hatred they remain below because without them connection cannot be.

We have to understand that it is not like it is in our world like little children we either hug or we fight, no. By keeping the hatred we rise above it, we do not erase it, we rise above it by that we build connection to the degree of love and within love remains the hatred and resistance in all of its depth and that is how love keeps growing each time and thus like the Creator we know good and evil as it is said you become like God knowing good and evil. That is the only way. It does not work any other way. If you wish to somewhat feel the state of the Creator then you have to try to ascend like that and not be like children where I can't listen, and I don't agree. It is very good that you cannot hear, that is a sign that you have a path to progress and that you can incorporate with all of the opposite forces and by that build yourself on a higher level. The more we advance in life the more we see that this life evolves by opposite things that begin to manifest their connection but that requires us transcending so this work has to be somewhat above reason, above what I think, above what I feel and it is not that someone is right he is not right either no one is right, only when we bring together all of the views all of the desires without resisting it we connect in that we want to be together.

Now being together does not cancel where we are opposite to each other, but the principle of oneness becomes the greatest and most important principle, and it is in control. The King, the ruler of the world is one, the one who rules all. Now we cannot yet conceive of these things but that is the only way that reality is built and that is what we have to achieve so what becomes revealed now I'm very happy about it because I see that the higher providence the Creator's treatment is pushing us to understand and acknowledge Him.

14. S. (46:42) I want to continue his question; it seems like as a world group we are on a new level with a new opportunity we are all so different from different continents different countries so this we have to somehow bring into the lesson what is the lesson that we have to take as a group as one world Kli?

R. It is simple. It is from wanting to try to raise each one and all of us together through mutual support that we need to be connected despite the forces that detach us, that position us against each other, and then love covers all crimes. That is the motto. The more we can maintain connection between us, it is exactly faith above reason even though it is against my reason I think about my connection with the friends and they do too, thinking about the connection between us even though on our degree we disagree we hate each other we are separate, opposite but on a higher level where we want to connect to the Creator that is where we have connection and love. So try to connect these two things as much as possible.

One on top of the other. When you, let's say after you fight with your wife, I don't know if you do but let's say, after that you come to make up and connect right? So some couples want to kind of forget what happened and then they as if become included in a new state of love and then they fall again and others get wiser by that meaning that they add more reason to their emotion that they can be in this state and they can be in a different state and then they grow and then when they grow then it is possible, but some people say but they don't remember they were separated before so how can they be now bonded as if the previous separation somehow erases or decreases the adhesion that they now achieved because there is no love now but you can say the opposite that now their love becomes more complex and more mature and then they know that their love now includes the previous separation as well and it rules over it in such a way they become greater, they become more mature, more realistic and thus they have, they possess various forms of separation and connection that become included in the new state.

This is something that you can think about with regards to children's songs that go like this: La da da da Lala and then there is this symphony that is played by a large orchestra that plays all the different tunes that our hearts can play. That is the difference so do not be afraid of keeping the separation states inside, it is not for no reason that it says that love covers all crimes. Love covers them but keeps them. It keeps them to the extent that the worst things where I disagreed, and I didn't want to see something in my friend or in my lover now I see and agree and love them. Why? Because it is his and hers and the other loves what I have, and we love these things because it is the conditions that the Creator created in us and when we connect we attain the Creator. That is how it is built; it is impossible otherwise.

S. But I felt with respect to this situation this interesting phenomenon that there was a complete division between the spiritual qualities and the physical qualities of the friend there is a connection with Rav the sources and the group and that is what I unite with this is what I love, in fact it does not matter to me how he sees the situation on the other hand.

R. I agree with you. Sorry to interrupt you. I agree with you. I too received some responses after yesterday and I understand these responses and I am sorry that perhaps I, as usual said a bit too much maybe I should not have said so much because we do have to take into account the conditions that our different groups are in but let us hope that we advance in spirituality and that will correct what I caused yesterday. In any case only through connection between us can we correct what is happening and the connection despite all of the crimes.

S. So on the one hand I felt that I do not care how the friend is looking at the situation and in spirituality I can unite with him. On the other hand I discovered that I am unwilling to make any allowances for him in corporeality. If the friend comes to me with a gun then I wouldn't hesitate to pay back with the same token so there is a complete separation between the corporal and spiritual qualities of the friend but now I do not know how to connect them.

R. Work on it we need to work on it. We are still in opposition and contrast and this contrast can reach levels of hatred and it will be greater and greater like the students of Rabbi Shimon that wanted to kill each other so now you discover that this kind of relationship can happen between you and the friends. Very good. This is a sign that you're somewhat seeing what creation is, created by the Creator. It is opposite in its will to receive and its between its pieces and in contrast it has to be connected as one heart and love between the pieces. Very good, we are advancing.

S. Yes, but when you say something, the way you look at the situation, so for me it is like a sacred point of view. I am willing to totally accept it and annul before it and this has to do with corporeal questions too right away and of course spiritual questions. The question is to what extent do I have to relate to the friend and look at him with spiritual eyes and to what extent should I accept the way he looks at things in the corporeal sense?

R. Love covers all crimes in everything that there is. You have to accept a friend the way that he is and if I hate this, I hate that, I love this, I hate that, that is on the one hand and on the other hand you have to see how you cover it with love because you long for the Creator, for connection and the correction in the Creator exists in the connection between you and so you do not erase the separation between you, you rather cover it with love, with connection. Try to do these exercises and you will see how you begin to recognize what is faith above reason, what it means to build spirituality above corporeality and then you will understand that the students of Rabbi Shimon, it is not some like some enemies out there that you cannot stand but your friends, you cannot stand them to the point that you're willing to kill them and you barely hold yourself from doing that and then with them you overcome all of that, you draw the upper force, you demand him and obligate him to give you the force of love and then the Creator himself descends towards you dwells in you and then you will feel the revelation of the Creator. He appears on top of the hatred he created in the first place so that you can discover him as the opposite force of love, and this is called ‘faith above reason.’ That is something we have to really work on.

S. I wanted to ask about the technology of covering with love. When we work in the ten in principle we do not have too many frictions, opposites.

R. There will be. There will be. You will see. You will see that it becomes more and more and suddenly you will discover that you have problems inside the group and then you will ask naively but we were friends everything was great everything was beautiful we were all connected somehow and now we cannot even look at each other, nothing is happening for us. It is not happening because you are not resisting it you have forgotten that it is the Creator between you but if you maintain this principle that everything is coming from the Creator as the revelation of truth, and you will have to work on the hatred between you and then you will find the right Kli for the revelation of the Creator. There is hatred, coarseness there, it is the foundation of the Partzuf and on top of that you will overcome by not using the hatred, which is restriction and on top of that Masach and reflected light and that is how you build reciprocal bestowal and that is where you reveal the Creator.

S. How do we prepare for it because when such a thing is revealed between us we always say it is something corporeal not spiritual hatred and something doesn't work out.

R. There is nothing material. There's nothing at all, besides spiritual states there is nothing in reality. It just appears to us in different ways, sometimes more material, sometimes more emotional, intellectual, other things but it really is all the revelation of the Creator in a way that is in favor or against and we mustn't forget it.

S. What is the right preparation so as not to forget about it when it comes?

R. Try. What you have learned, what you have read, try to follow it and other than that we go back to them to the daily lesson. We process this, we clarify this, we somehow do these different activities with each other towards each other, and the Creator doesn't leave us, and he awakens all kinds of separation and rejection between us. That is what he reveals. That is called I created the evil inclination. He does not reveal the connection to us, he just reveals more and more separation between us.

S. In other words we can say that by revealing these contradictions is the best time to build the vessel?

R. Of course, otherwise how would you long for the Creator, for connection? For something that we cannot do in a spiritual way He does between us in a corporeal way through wars and other events and breakage of the family unit and so on but if we cover it with the understanding that He does that to give birth to our connection then we do not need all of those corporeal things that manifest between us, all of those wars. Through connection between us above these things we will shift everything to a spiritual war and thus achieve corrections very fast.

S. Now in the current situation, how do we use it not only to soften or somehow sweep under the carpet?

R. Everyone should relate to everyone, groups to other groups, in a way that you want to cover it with love. You do not forget, you do not need to erase what is there in everyone, not just what was but what is right now. I just want to cover it with love. Why? Because I want to reveal the Creator to bring him contentment. That is it, let us speak truthfully. There is no other reason and there shouldn't be. When something bad appears I am happy about the revelation of the wicked like Baal HaSulam writes that they go out of their holes why? Because when you look under them they will turn into a pile of bones, and you will find them gone why? Because when you build the connection on top of them you then bring contentment to the Creator and all of it is right in front of us, it is right in front of us, let's do it.

15. S. (01:03:43) In the same direction the question is this, we can stop this war in the world through our prayer, should we believe it or think that we can only correct the connections in the ten?

R. We have to think about the connection between all created beings and we correct it. We do it first through the connection between us but by that we are thinking about working on all of creation. By that we do the correction as much as it depends on us. we don't demand something to suddenly happen or we don't put ourselves glued to one side or the other side who's right and who's not what's the character of this side and that side to this history and that history, I don't care, that doesn't matter to me what I know is just one thing, the Creator awakens it and it's not going to help me to go into this with my brain and start seeing who I justify and who I condemn. No, I accept all this as a given, on top of it I build connection and love. I build it in such a way that between us in the group we make a connection in order to pray to the Creator, He who makes peace above will make peace between us, that's it more than that I don't need that is our entire work.

S. We learned that the correction of the world depends on us and each one must tell himself that all the problems in the world are because of me, so what people that didn't do any crimes are dying because of me, because I don't want to pray to the Creator?

R. Of course, of course.

S. So this is how I have to accept it, just like that? Because when someone says this I immediately want to tell him it is irrelevant.

R. That's clear because your ego rejects these things, yes.

S. So it turns out that the fire that's happening now can cover the whole world and the responsibility is on us? That we can stop the conflict?

R. That's right, correct and instead of putting the fire out we are covering it with love. We don't go into the fire to interfere with it, no, that's impossible. We cover it with love with our connection in a way that we demand the Creator to impose the forces of peace, of complementation to all of humanity.

S. On the backdrop of this terrible state I have no right to go into a conflict to fight or argue with a friend? Do we just have to unite and put out the fire?

R. Of course, that's our work. The whole world Kli of BB all around the world must only pray for peace and peace comes from the problems and troubles that the Creator, not the other side, the Creator reveals in our world. He does that, none else besides him, to both the good and the bad and we by turning to him we ask him to cover it with good. There are two sides here, there is the revelation of the Creator's action and that's what we relate to.

S. What we just discussed now concerning conflict and quarrels between friends and we don’t connect it with the Creator and don’t rise in prayer above it?

R. That's bad, that's horrible, that’s not good.

S. We don’t advance, we stay put?

R. You're falling, you're falling down to the corporeal level, that's it.

16. S. (01:09:17) The lesson from yesterday we experienced it properly, the whole ten all the groups. So hence the question. My friend loves red. I love blue and on that background we have some dispute. What exactly should I cover with love?

R. So what's the problem? If you give him a present, what will you give him? You will give him something colored blue and he’ll give you something in red. What's the problem I don't understand?

S. One doesn't sit well with the other for example, it turns out that he doesn't like me because of this, and I don't like him because of this. How should we cover it with love?

R. What does this have to do with that? If I have a baby that I love with all my heart and that baby has other preferences than mine he likes sweets, he likes what he likes and if I love the baby I love what he loves to and I hate what he hates, through the adhesion. I don't understand, love covers all crimes. Think about it more and we'll get back to you if needed

17. S. (01:11:10) To continue the question from Kyiv we're all dependent on the society, the environment that we live in now between the countries there is a war also a psychological war on the level of the media. How do we not bring it into the relationships between us?

R. I don't know, of course Moscow and Kyiv you have different conditions, different influences of your environment and of course there are things that on the face of it there's nothing you can do. Everyone is influenced by where there are but we're talking about where we need to be above the surface, if you want to rise to the upper force that governs us and also governs this war from above, and he conducts this war for us to rise to him so we, those who want to reveal the Creator, to reveal his actions we have to overcome everything that's happening and rise to Him and cling to Him so then we have no other choice we have to understand that all of it comes to us so that we try to achieve connection between us and through connection between us reveal the Creator.

Everything is happening only for that. There is no action within the person or outside or between us in the whole universe there is no action that has any other reason, any other purpose, only the revelation of the Creator to the created beings. It appears in a way that they change in such a way that they can perceive the purpose of creation, the essence of creation, what exists beyond time, space, and motion, and that's what we need to get closer to. I really hope that we will understand what's happening in the world and what's happening with us and how we have to behave. How I have to relate to reality. Everyone accepts reality differently, in different societies in a different place in the world, even in a single group but we have to help each other accept reality the way it comes to us from the Creator and understand it that way. In some form of adhesion with the Creator.

18. S. (01:14:28) What did we do to anger the Creator that such a situation happened in Ukraine, what did we do wrong in the spiritual world to bring about wars?

R. We are completely far from the Creator to begin with from one end to the other. The Creator is completely bestowing he's in the degree of faith above reason we need, in reason, not in the degree of faith, to completely accept Him and the Creator brings us closer to Him He awakens us in a way that he awakens thoughts and emotions that are opposite that are unpleasant etc. and we need to invert them by the wisdom of Kabbalah. By us going deep into the thought, feeling and connection between us and turn them into prayer for connection between us. That's not considered that we upset Him, no. It's a force that incorporates the whole of reality you can't upset it or even if we say that we give contentment to Him that's all, there's a verse that the Torah speaks in the tongue of human beings, so how can it be how can we give contentment or not give contentment to the absolute?

Everything, the Creator as well, he's come and see Bo Reh so that's what we build inside us by ourselves, so let us try to go deeper and deeper into what we are going through. We are going through very complex states and soon we'll understand this, why this rolls down on us this way but you can't say about the Creator that we make Him upset that he's not pleased with us, that's what you talk with the common people, with children, but if the Creator is everything all we need to do is to try to adapt ourselves to Him and we will adapt ourselves for sure but everything here depends on how much we want to do it on our own account.

19. S. (01:17:28) What's the right way to bridge the two sides of this dispute? If we even need to?

R. I don't need to bridge two sides in a dispute. Each one, if we're talking about our groups, each one has to rise above the group’s will to receive, to the will to bestow as much as possible and by that we correct everything, that's it. We're not going to write or express each one according to His corporeal intellect, stupid intellect, how to bridge sides. What are we missing that each one of us will start running the wars? There's no such thing, there's nothing more foolish. That’s it. What I recommend is to sit and not do anything, it is better.

20. S. (01:18:46) What to do if the hatred is revealed in the ten and a friend runs away from the battlefield, leaves the ten, what's the advice?

R. The advice is love will cover all crimes, still try to bring him back, help him, do it in a way that you will be friends even if you want to kill each other. That's what happened with Kabbalists in all generations, but they were able to overcome. Whoever couldn't overcome we don't know about them because they disappear.

21. S. (01:19:34) What should I do with the hatred that is revealed if it is towards myself, where should I aim that feeling?

R. Divide one‘s self so that a part belongs to the Creator and a part belongs to your evil inclination, to your ego, and then with the part that belongs to your ego you can hate it, but it has to be with what goes on it. So what do you do next after you hate it? You pray. Are you asking for the Creator to help you overcome it?

22. S. (01:20:20) If I know that the Creator is behind every action of a person it's easy to justify so then I annul the hatred towards them, is that the right approach? We learned that we shouldn't erase anything.

R. That is correct, that we are looking at each and every one and we imagine the Creator is standing behind him and managing him.

23. S. (01:20:50) With the women the problems can be revealed but it seems that more often the phenomena are just to be silent, to be distant, and that puts a burden on the ten. Is our work more internal? What should we do when we're silent and distant?

R. Silence and distance is not good in a group because we have to come closer to being in one heart. That is why I don't think that there's room here for silence in oneself. We have to scrutinize the things we're going through not by many words but to the extent that it will help us to be in connection. If you don't connect, if you do not connect then you simply don't belong to any spiritual process and running away is not the right action at all. There's nothing worse than running away.

24. S. (01:22:15) When we asked the Creator for connection above separation, should we expect a result?

R. Yes, we want to connect upon the separation. The separation has to stay below and upon it the connection must stay as we learned, in a spiritual Partzuf don't forget that, in a spiritual Partzuf. What is that? When there's coarseness upon it, restriction, a screen, reflected light and the revelation of the Creator. That's how it should be, and all that is built on a big will to receive where all the rejection and the hatred and the separation are revealed.

25. S. (01:22:57) So how is the answer of the Creator expressed, felt?

R. How is it felt? We feel it. If we're truly annulling ourselves and willing to be as connected as possible and we're asking of Him. “We're incapable of really being connected so we're expecting You to clothe in us and to show us how to be in connection.” Then by that we'll feel His revelation.

S. If we feel that the Creator isn't helping?

R. Pray. That cannot be. It's a sign you didn't ask.

26. S. (01:24:08) Once the feeling of separation is revealed, how exactly does the plea to the Creator take place?

R. Out of the heart, there's nothing to do, and as much as you feel that is how your prayers should also be.

Reading Item #69 (01:27:55) “By making the covenant…”

Reading Item #70 (01:29:15) “The ascension of the souls…”

27. R. (01:30:06) Meaning as much as we connect between us with one request for unity, for connection and adhesion with the Creator, by that we are performing the main correction.

28. S. (01:30:26) In this work, in this constant prayer, this constant love a friend has some upper part in him that is aimed towards prayer, towards this love of the Creator and there's the corporeal part that is aimed towards corporeality. Do we only aim at the upper one and not look at the lower one?

R. That is exactly how we relate to this. I connect to the friend as much as I can. Maybe it's a small part, a very small part of me and of him and in these parts we connect; that's the main thing. Later it expands more and more and what's revealed is that in general we even reach a state that there is no corporeality, they're only spirituality. Later, we'll see that there's no corporeality; there are no bodies of ours or this world, everything is a special expression of spirituality, that’s it. All these things that seem to us opposites, corporeal, different from one another in the friends we will see that’s wrong. When they are revealed as hating and opposite, then to the connection and love that dwells upon them.

29. S. (01:32:09) We just read about the covenant, and we connect to the friends, and we speak about signing the covenant and from this covenant we want to invite the Creator. What covenant has to be between us for the force of the Creator to enter it?

R. Similar to the quality of the Creator. When you relate to each other in such a way like the Creator, and then he will dwell among you. After you connect, He doesn't need anything after you connect, He doesn't need an additional thing in order to come down to you, to connect to you. But rather to begin with your whole connection should be according to the quality of the Creator; bestowal, love above all the disturbances, the oppositions.

30. S. (01:33:39) According to the last excerpt, if we gather a mutual prayer, a mutual feeling, does this mean that to that extent the prayers can be different as a precondition?

R. I don't really understand what you're trying to say. We need to nonetheless connect between ourselves, something that is above us, a prayer for connection. When in this connection we will have both, in which we’re opposite and in what we are connected, and we want to be more connected to reach such qualities above the coarseness of ours. It's like in the spiritual Partzuf where there is coarseness and upon it we have an overcoming and in this overcoming we discover the Creator, we build the Creator above our overcoming, above our connection, above our coarseness. That's what we need to do.

31. S. (01:35:22) It's written here that the prayer depends on the connection of the souls. The connection of the hearts I can understand somewhat but what is connecting the souls?

R. The connection of the hearts may be in order to receive or in order to bestow, in these two forces. It is written in the two inclinations, the good inclination, and the evil inclination, both the evil and the good inclination are in man's heart, as an initial point. The point in the heart is the one that draws to the Creator, and what we need to try from this evil inclination, which is the entire heart of a person, to make it little by little resemble the good inclination. Meaning to restrict the egoistic desire and above it to build the qualities of bestowal, as we learned in the spiritual Partzuf and so to depict what the correction of the heart means and then in these relations when each one rises above his own ego, above his pride, above his rejection for others; when we rise above that we can't ruin our evil, all we can do is rise above it. And, then in such an inclination, in such a disposition we can connect. When each one rises above his ego there in the connection between us we build the Shechina, divinity, a place for the revelation of the Creator. Which is basically our desire to receive going through corrections of restriction, screen and reflected light and in them we build the spiritual Partzuf where He can be revealed, the upper light, the Creator, the force of bestowal, the force of love. That's called the Upper Light.

32. S. (01:38:22) Why is the most important correction the connection of all souls into one?

R. Because we, by that, rise, each one above his ego to connect with others. Each one has only the force of bestowal dwelling on the will to receive and then in these forces of bestowal we connect between us and build a place to reveal the Creator according to the equivalence of form. When we're all in bestowal and the Creator is a force of bestowal then we receive the clothing of the Creator in us, He fills us, and when He feels all are corrected vessels that will be called the Final Correction.

33. S. (01:39:36) In the previous excerpt it is written at the end: just like he can't stop loving himself he won't be able to stop loving his friend, what does that mean?

R. It's when we relate to ourselves and to others equally.

S. But if I don't love myself I can't love the friends.

R. Yes.

34. S. (01:40:17) It's still not clear we're speaking a lot about hatred, but he says that the main rising of the souls is when all souls incorporate and become one. What's the connection between hatred and holiness? Why do we need to hate first in order to reach holiness, what's in that?

R. Because we, the created beings cannot understand what Kedusha means but only through the opposite way. As a created being I'm outside of Kedusha. Kedusha is bestowal, it’s love, it's the quality of the Creator, and we to begin with have been created in the opposite way: hatred, reception, rejection, in order to be different from the Creator. How can you be different from the Creator? Only by Him creating and us this quality of reception, hatred, and rejection we only love ourselves. In order to be in Kedusha we have to love others. Kedusha is what is outside of me, the quality of the Creator, bestowal.

S. I'm asking how we can reach love? like you're saying love will cover all crimes. What does it mean to be with love above hatred? What's the essence of that action?

R. When you ask the Creator to control you by the force of love and bestowal of His, you're willing for Him to really clothe in you and then accordingly you discover Him in you. Accordingly you'll start being sanctified. That's how you advance to understand the sanctity, Kedusha.

S. But how can you do the action if the Creator hasn't been clothed in me?

R. You prepare and structure by your connection with the friends.

S. What does it mean to prepare it?

R. When you relate to your friends the way you relate to the Creator.

S. So, to annul before them then love appears?

R. Yes, that too.

Reading Item #71 (01:43:04) “Indeed, you have caused me…”

35. R. (01:43:55) This Baal HaSulam writes to his students in his letter, that he feels that the separation between them comes from him, and he also needs first to correct himself.

Reading Item #72 (01:44:10) “and you, the friend…”
