Advance By Overcoming - Selected Excerpts From the Sources

1. Rav’s Introduction: (00:34) Yes, we need to read these excerpts and try. Try to understand that everything relates to our work between us and the Creator as usual. Except we need to renew those things because each time it's not that we forget there is no forgetting except each day you have new discernments, new cells that join our spiritual work and that's why what we had yesterday is not enough today. Although we can repeat the same article written in the same book or the same excerpt that's written in the same place in the computer's memory it is not the same for us because we always renew ourselves more and more.

That's why it says 'it shall be as new in your eyes' and we have to be prepared for that. Each day, and each and every day, it's not that we are repeating the same thing whether we have to renew,we have to correct,we have to add new desires that rise from within, they surface. We need to format them again and again to arrange, organize them, and add them to the ones we had yesterday and the day before yesterday. We have to feel that today I'm working with new thoughts and new desires and I'm adding them to everything that was there before. Therefore, it's written Abraham is old and many years old meaning it comes with the addition of all the corrections that he made during his lifetime, that's why he's called old.

Reading excerpt #1: (03:11) “We should pay attention to it and believe ...”

2. S. (04:37) What is the difference between the brokenhearted and despair? What is the difference between those two since they are the same for me but what is the difference here?

R. Yes, it's true but the brokenhearted this is something a person can feel each and every moment that his heart's desire is wrong, it is broken, he discovers only his inability toward spirituality. Meaning he's not prepared for spirituality, he's not capable of working spiritually, he comes from a broken vessel. This is not the same as despair. This is establishing a fact, this is me and there's nothing wrong about it because that's what the Creator did to me. Whereas the second discernment in addition to the brokenhearted when I feel myself in despair, powerless. Here the question is what am I doing with it?

As much as I'm waking up, nevertheless I understand that the Creator has prepared all those things for me and have to get through them. I have to determine that my will to receive is not ready for spiritual advancement and I must rise above it and that's why if I relate correctly on the one hand and whatever the Creator created that's what I have and He gave me a broken heart and He also gave me the feeling of a corrected heart, a pure heart, and then in the gap between these two hearts, or these two inclinations, the good inclinations and the bad inclinations between these two states, I begin to feel myself and I need to ascribe everything to the Creator and from that to demand from him to correct me. We ourselves don't need to do anything but to turn to the Creator because certainly we have no power to change our state to change our desire, nothing, only to ask.

S. That means that you're working in the ten everything that works for you and you have something that can't be filled so we build the connection to him from the ten but this is fear what it is richest despair of the connection with him?

R. No, no don't rush, it's not giving up. Despair means that you see day in and day out, that it seems to you that you're in the same state and the states are not renewed and what was yesterday is today and might also be tomorrow. You don't see any changes. you don't see something is changing ,that you're advancing. This is incorrect, you are each and every moment in a new desire otherwise the past moment wouldn't have changed to the present moment. We need to see each time that I live all those moments, one after the other in succession. Not just me but all of humanity, except I'm aware of it and I wish to change every moment to a corrected moment and that's how we move forward.

3. S. (09:06) Why seeing that we are worse is considered help from above?

R. We need to see in each moment that we become new and the innovation is and the fact that each time the Creator reveals the upper light He bestows to us and He uncovers a greater depth of our will to receive because from moment to moment we can get to know our the evil in us compared to past moments. In this way we advance so if a person can't, truly cannot see that there's a new moment ahead of him. It's a sign he's not ready to do the work. He hasn't prepared himself for the work. That's why it says 'it shall be as new in your eyes'. All the moments should be as new, that you go through them and you advance, it all depends on our work the extent to which we are connected the degree of our connection between us is the measurement over which we can determine how much we accumulated between us,we connected, we arrange ourselves in the ten Sefirot, in one Partzuf, one soul.

4. S. (11:22) Where a person is lazy in his work?

R. Lazy in his work means he doesn't want to recognize each moment as new.

S. Is it that when I ask the Creator everyday for the connection between us, love, bestowal for Him to give us the source everyday is that considered that I'm doing my labor? By asking for friends?

R. Also, that it's not everything.

S. Can I also ask for the necessity for myself as well? Let's say that my necessity is bothering men, that's with friends. Can I ask for my own necessities? Is that correct?

R. If you're asking for the connection with the friends and with the Creator, if you're asking for it correctly, you don't need to ask for yourself anything because you're asking to carry out the connection between them and you're incorporated in that. You have nothing else to ask for, your necessity, your request, includes everything.

S. What does it mean that a new will to receive is awakening? How does that feel?

R. It's possible that we don't feel it, sometimes yes, sometimes no. Typically no we don't, it awakens each time what awakens each moment, we live in new desires. Not only us, the whole world. The only difference is in the degree. We are scrutinizing desires that belong to the degree of bestowal and the world person still scrutinizes what belongs to the degree of the reception.

5. S. (13:44) Every moment we have a new desire and a new condition that the Creator reveals new conditions that the Creator revealed to us and for us to raise a new request each time?

R. Both in quantity and quality, we have to move forward, we have to scrutinize new states and we go into new depths.

S. What does it mean for each time in a greater depth to scrutinize a matter, I just cover all kinds of desires. Where do I need to go with this?

R. To be connected with the friends more and more in all conditions, all kinds of states that are revealed between you and for all of them to be aimed at the Creator.

Reading excerpt #2: (14:54) “.. to we must always consider the goal ...” Twice.

6. R. (16:38) It includes correctly in each and every state, so that each state that comes to us is in order for us to rise above it as it is written ‘it only raises you in holiness and never brings you down'. Even when the state comes to a person and he thinks it's the state of descents, it's a descent for the sake of an ascending. We always move towards the end correction. All of humanity, especially us. We are working with the lights, with the force that organizes us and advances us in practice. We always need to grow stronger and stay closer to the same tendencies by which the light is working and the speed of our advancement will be truly felt.

7. S. (17:36) The evil inclination when it comes is it in relation to everything or to a more exalted quality?

R. Repeat please.

S. When the evil inclination comes and it's clear, it's clear but if you simply look at your attitude towards a more exalted quality you reveal that relative to that quality how to deal correctly with the evil inclination and here too, the meaning is that the evil inclination?

R. Each and every moment what grows in the person is the evil inclination. Therefore, if we want to see things correctly,advance correctly, we have to see in each and every moment the growing of the evil inclination,and how much I can invert it in such a way and arrange it in such a way that it will become the good inclination. I know only one thing correctly which is, if I am asking the Creator for the opportunity to turn the evil inclination into the good inclination to help me, to give me an opportunity to bestow to be connected to the group and to Him, the Creator. In this way I advance. Therefore, in all the states that I have, the most empty state, the simplest moment, I should always aim at that. There isn't a moment that is empty, in which you have nothing to do rather I simply can't see just how much I can use it.

Reading excerpt #3 : (20.01) “Any overcoming in the work is called....” Twice

8. R. (20:52 ) Meaning we have to be patient and understand that each time the will to receive will grow. The obstacle will become clearer and will grow and we don't need to get mad at it and feel sorry about it, or be afraid, rather we should accept these things as degrees over which we need to climb higher. Each time we have a new degree, we have to rise to it and not think that the Creator is giving us this and is tripping us. Rather he's helping us, he's showing us, revealing before us the degree that if we climb will be closer to him and closer to spirituality and eternity and such.vessels that we will discover all of reality, clearly and for it to fill us. That's what we need to do.

Reading excerpt #3 again (22:18) “Any overcoming in the work is called….”

9. R. (22:32) There isn't a single moment that is redundant that we went through for nothing. Rather if we couldn't use it 100%, don't worry but it nevertheless enters the correction.

Reader Continues: (22:52)

10. S. (23:33) How is it that the collective intention that we built together to be above the will to receive for self seems to us that the intensity of the growing questions of Pharaoh?

R. We will work on it. I can't explain it right now. We will see it in practice with the questions of Pharaoh and all that we will get to it.

11. S. (24:22) What is to take a part of the coarseness and to put a screen on it?

R. The desire to receive that appears in a person, some of those he can change and use them to connect to the friends and turn them into in order to bestow. This is the meaning of overcoming them and with this overcoming in the friends and the connection to the Creator, he receives forces called the screen and then in place of the forces of separation that appear to him he's using them to correct them and to change them into the forces of connection. This is the work. Meaning he climbs above the degree that is revealed to him.

S. What are those desires? How can you identify them?

R. All kinds of desires, it doesn't matter which, all kinds. He discovers before him those desires that interfere with him and they disturb him.

S. The desires that bother connection?

R. Yes, we don't need anything besides connection because we've had shattering in the beginning of the path and one vessel shattered into many pieces and now we have to reassemble them from one desire that existed in Adam HaRishon and we got thousands upon thousands of desires and we have to connect these together.

S. What is it considered to put a Masach, let's say right now some desire is being revealed?

R. By connecting the desires we can't quite connect our desires. They become opposing, so what we need to do then is although they don't want to be together, just like we are one towards the other, that's how we scrutinize things. So we need to try to nevertheless be connected although inside there might be hating one another when they wouldn't want to receive and this is clearly in each and everyone and on this we say that love covers all crimes, we can actually try to connect. We hold ourselves with our own power and we ask the Creator, we try to create that between us and that's how we return ourselves to the complete system of Adam HaRishon.

S. Simply because there's times where it's very clear that there's room for overcoming but there's times when it's not at all felt, so it's kind of…?

R. Ok fine, you keep going nevertheless and it will get clarified a few steps from here.

S. So what happens with it at the moment when it's not?

R. In the very moment that it happens it's not important. I have to keep going, I know only one thing, there's a problem before me that is to connect all the moments, all the actions, all the thoughts, desires, everything. I've got to connect it into one system with the friends and with the Creator.

12. S. (28:24) Sometimes we are not able to be aware of the excuses of the evil inclination, how shall we raise a prayer in this situation?

R. We need to connect that's why the prayer could be the prayer of the individual and the prayer of many and you'll see if you can't, if you have no words, you can't, who to turn to, with what, connect with the friends and then you'll see how much you have so much to ask for it.

13. S. (29:19) Is it correct to say that a broken heart is a condition to reach fear?

R. Yes, a broken heart has to be there in order to reach fear, spiritual fear, you are correct.

14. S. (29:45) He says can we say that in that penny and another penny, is effort for connection can we say that the penny and another penny is the effort the forces that we put for connection?

R. Of course, you're correct.

15. S. (30:13) It is written that every effort is joined to a great sum but why do we see the opposite, why don't we see the advancement?

R. You need to see your account in spirituality that keeps filling when you add your exertion and your action and your questions. In the new states everything, fill your cell, your box. Because you're advancing towards the will to bestow in order for you to advance towards bestowal you need to advance to states where you can see less and less that you have an account that you have a purse where you collect your exertion, your states, your beautiful states.

You have nothing to receive in the next world because you have to ask about in order to bestow, with in order to bestow you have to reach something opposite, something very strange. We don't want any action, any results from your life except to do something for everyone and through them to the Creator and you'll remain with zero, total absolute zero. So of course we have for the time being an egoistic view of all the processes we are going through but gradually through the reforming light it will be corrected and we will see a new kind of way to see things in the light of Hassadim.

16. S. (32:42) In the previous excerpt it's written that our purpose is to bring contentment to our Maker. Usually we say that we need to give contentment to the Creator?

R. Of course, “I to my beloved and my beloved to me” that's how it works and there's nothing you can do. We wish to give him contentment and the Creator seemingly wants to give contentment to us and we too should try and work in a mutual way. You forgot about our example? Our main example with the guest in the host and each one wants to give to the other. The guest can't give to the host anything and only the host gives everything to the guest, the guest places conditions where he allows the host to bestow to him on the condition that he can bestow back to the host. It works out that although the host has everything but the guest is the one dictating. That's how gradually these things will settle, you will feel them, before they enter the heart we can't really understand them. That's why it says at the heart understands, that's what it says in Kabbalah,that everything has to be clarified in the desire and then when it's clarified in the desire we understand. Our intellect is merely an accompanying desire, it helps him weigh things, sort things but everything that's happening is happening within the desire.

17. S. (35:25) I would like more than seeing my purse being filled to find everything I found in the last 35 minutes in the lesson and then to pull it out for the ten and the right time. How do I come to that state?

R. With prayer ask the Creator to help you do what you have in your heart.

18. S. (36:03) Why does the purse always grow in the eyes of the student and it's hard to give it up?

R. Again.

S. Why does it seem like the treasury, the amounts, keeps growing and more and it's harder for me to give it up?

R. It's because the will to receive is growing and you have to make a calculation of why do you need to work with it for the sake of who.

S. Who increases that purse me by investing more or does the Creator do this for me?

R. Of course it's the Creator, this is the general process where the will to receive is constantly growing, it's not growing, it's simply opened up more and more for us.

19. S. (37:08) If we have a screen on his previous degree?

R. ….

20. S. (37:35) Why won't it let thoughts of despair enter his mind in place of despair, true places?

R. The prayer has to be not from despair not for wanting to advance.

21. S. (37:51) If we don't need to know what we're accumulating then why do we always say a penny and another penny add up their great sum?

R. Because we're speaking about acts of bestowal we want to collect all those pennies.

22. S. (38:16) It's not quite clear how it works out that the Creator is close to those with a broken heart and those who are helpless but on the other hand it's hard to overcome and enter into states of despair?

R. We need to go through the states of the broken heart and we have it in each and every state and it's a sign we're rising to a higher degree, hence the broken heart. A broken heart is a very highly respected state as it is written, there is nothing more whole than a broken heart but after that we have to move forward.

23. S. (39:19) What does it mean in the work of the ten to take from a vessel of reception and put it into vessels of bestowal?

R. It's when I receive all kinds of rejection, burdening of the heart and above that I connect with the friends and I go and I keep going forward.

24. S. (39:47) It's written that sometimes one who prays for himself brings harm to himself and sometimes we need as much as possible to pray for himself so what's more precise?

R. Are we speaking about the connection with a friend, and through them with the Creator or simply about myself because I feel bad?

Continues reading #4: (40:18) “Baal HaSulam says the Keter which is Ein Sof . ..”

25. R. (41:47) We are always connected to the Creator. We have no problem to turn to him except we need to arrange the plea from between us to him. The more we connect between us a little more and we aim our connection at him, what does it mean aim to him? It means what do we want from this, to give him contentment, for him to enjoy us like a mother who enjoys her good kids or are we only shouting, crying, give me, give me, give me. Here we need to in a way that's clear to us, the simple way, we have to see ourselves how we perform the magic, the action. It's not so important, it's important who are we turning to and how we connect and who do we turn to. If we arrange these things together in one point, each one of us and all of us together in one point and all of us towards the one Creator, this is called Israel, the light and the Creator are one and certainly in this way we succeed.

Continues reading #5: (43:27) “When the evil inclination brings those....”

26. S. (44:43) What does it mean that we connect the foreign thoughts with spirituality? It seems like on the contrary, we rise above them or before them and don't take them with us?

R. If you rise above them then you take them together with you, you rise together with them otherwise on which foundation can you climb? Of course, all the desires, all the thoughts, all the barriers, all the difficult things, everything is rising together with us, truly with us, then when we come to the end of correction then this entire path is like a rolled-up carpet. We come in and enter the end of correction with all our coarseness. In the end of correction all kinds of states are revealed, the states we have been through, states that are opposite forms that are opposite sanctity, giving and connection and together with that we reveal the states of connection.

S. Simply some desire and foreign thoughts are being revealed like it is written but I try to think of the friends and advancement?

R. Beautiful and together with that and all kinds of desires, thoughts, states are revealed to you that seemingly do not relate to the friends, try to be connected to the friends with those thoughts and desires. If you cannot do it ask the Creator, just like he sent you this desire, he should help you connect to the society.

27. S. (47:17) The thoughts that awaken against the Creator in such a clear manner, what do we do with these thoughts that deviate a person?

R. Constantly stay connected to the friends with the Creator and you will see how it does not interfere with your work and your sleep, all kinds of things. Try it, we have to be together with the friends and the Creator and together with everything that is happening in this world, divide everything in reality into two, the upper world and the lower world. So live in the upper world and together with that try to be in the lower world and these two worlds should be together, what’s the problem here? You will discover it is all one reality just that one is going through the other.

28. S. (49:03) My friend is asking each morning when I come to the lesson I feel the feeling of separation is getting stronger will it always be like this?

R. And more, it will always be and more and together with that after you overcome the separation of that morning, let's say that day, you will connect tomorrow you will discover more and you will understand it is specifically owing to the disconnection you had before.

S. How can I recognize that feelings of separation comes from my ego and how can I rise above my will to receive every day?

R. For the time being we just need to believe that this is what is written about, everything he raises it not new but it used to be concealed in me, inside of me, in my will to receive, my ego and then gradually more and more is revealed. Therefore there's nothing new here, rather I always correct my shattered soul, day in and day out.

29. S. (50:42) Thinking about the process, every desire demands energy and time. I correct it when I use the energy and time, when I use my energy and time to do something for the friends in place of for myself?

R. No, the fact that you do it for friends it's actually specifically for your own soul.

30. S. (51:47) How can I help my friend raise his foreign thoughts above reason?

R. By setting an example. You show him how broken you are and together with that how much you wake yourself up. Show it to him, give him an example, it is very good help.

31. S. (52:30) It's written in excerpt two and also in five that when the evil inclination awakens all kinds of thoughts not to reject them but rather use them for the work. Can you be more precise with this work because when something deviates my mind I try to make an effort to go back to the lesson, is that called to reject it or use it and what's the difference really?

R. Try to go all the way with this disturbance until you can connect it to the friends and to the Creator and then you will be using it correctly

S. Can you explain that please because there's all kinds of things that...

R. I can't explain it, you have to do it, you have to do it and then you'll get an explanation as a result of doing and that's how it works. I can't explain to you all those things theoretically if you don't have the practice in it

S. I'm asking about the practice. If I become hungry right now, I don't know what, what does it mean to connect that to the friends?

R. I'm not speaking of such things, this belongs to the animal. This is called lack of action you're trying to scrutinize everything with your mind.

S. I'm sorry Rav, what are we talking about here?

R. It's talking about the actions of connection, do you understand? Acts of connection and everything that is scrutinized and clarified for you that you will feel that something rose in your brain and in your heart try to attach it to connection, try to use it in connection with the friends, that is it.

S. So there are many things that divert us, even during the lesson so what does it mean to take those diversions and connect them to the friends?

R. That in spite of the disturbances you want to remain connected to them.

S. So my question is why is that not considered to reject them? It is written that we shouldn't reject those things that come.

R. Yes, you want to use them to connect even more because these disturbances, what we call disturbances, they are truly the first discernment that we feel so these disturbances, they need to bring us closer to one another because it's the same revelation of the shattering that happened to us a long time ago and they awaken from the shattering and so we have to take these disturbances and together with them, above them, to connect again and that's how we correct the broken system of Adam HaRishon.

32. S. (56:01) Do we need to demand from the Creator to give us a desire to bestow or do we need to demand from the Creator to give us the forces to work against the desire to receive?

R. No no, we don't have to ask for the strength to be against the forces of reception, rather we have to ask for the strength to be for the force of bestowal, to be for connection. This is a very good question, very good question, write it down. We have to ask for connection, not to fight the separation. On that it says, that if someone fights over something and it breaks then he receives twice. There was something before me, there was a disturbance, I broke it and I received two disturbances in this place. Don't pay attention to the forces of separation rather try to establish the system of connection above them.

33. S. (57:36) What does it mean that we turn to Him together?

R. That after all in our work, just like now, we scrutinize what disturbs us. How we need to work with a disturbance, how to overcome it, how to turn to the Creator to correct us. In general it doesn't matter which states we are in, all those states are the will to receive. All of our work is to rise above the will to receive to a desire to bestow, towards the intention to bestow. So it doesn't matter what kind of disturbance each one has rather in total we are all of us in one action to rise above our egoistic desire that awakens in us, the one that brings us all kinds of doubts and rejection, confusions and so on and so forth and we are in the same conundrum.

In each one obviously it shows up in a different style and even if we speak between us and scrutinize the disturbances we will never find similar disturbances, precisely similar disturbances with each individual because it cannot be because we're all different vessels; therefore, our entire work is to connect these disturbances, seemingly disturbances, into one disturbance and for the Creator to correct it and the Creator shines on it and with His light and His presence then all of it is corrected and stabilized and we remain connected.

S. If each has his disturbance and he doesn't feel the others at the moment, what does it mean to connect these disturbances to one disturbance? What does it mean to turn to Him together?

R. We have nothing more than the will to receive and in the will to receive we reveal all kinds of disturbances, the forms of the shattering but all of it is one. The will to receive that discovers itself so that it is in order to receive. So all of our work is the same work and in each one of us it will be the same work. We have nothing but to plug all those things to the Creator for Him to correct it.

S. So each doing the work in the ten is considered we're doing it together?

R. If we want to connect ourselves together, so it would be a broken desire, one broken desire even a single one, that's already our job is done, spiritually.

S. What's a broken desire together?

R. We want to connect all of our desires together.

S. We always say that we connect with the goal, with the Creator, not with the desires, so?

R. That's correct so how can you connect them? If the Creator will appear and be between us. These desires cannot be together, never. Now after the shattering there's a great distance between each and every desire and the Creator has to fill this gap with His presence and then these desires connect. These desires are like Islands in the ocean whereby we wish to connect them so the Creator enters in between these islands, how did he break them? According to whatever was revealed to Him, according to the upper light and now he needs to fill the gap between these islands, first of all with the light of a Hassadim and later with the light of Hochma.

S. And compared to? I will try it differently. A person wakes up in the middle of the day to work. How does he know that his appeal is done together compared to how he turns to the Creator alone? What's the difference?

R. When he turns to Him alone it's not so beneficial. If he wants to correct his situation he has to connect with friends and with friends to the Creator and this will correct his state.

S. That's something that he does nevertheless? This connection with the friends is something he does with himself, alone

R. His intention is to be connected with the friends or not?

S. Yes, of course.

R. That is it, what does it mean that he is alone?

S. It simply turns out that every friend does this work that he wants to connect with the others at a different time, different moment.

R. It's always like that, it's always within himself.

S. So what is it considered to do together?

R. That means that we are all using one method. What did you think together means?

S. That's what I'm asking. Clear, thank you.

34. S. (01:04:05) In the excerpt it writes the ways of the Lord are straight. Can you explain what it means?

R. That the path of the Creator is straight means that we only follow the path of bestowal.

35. S. (01:04:39) In number five that we read it starts, when the evil inclination brings him foreign thoughts and then he continues in the middle so that he will continue to admit them into Kedusha, it turns out accordingly that he is brought closer from above. That he is being brought closer, is this some kind of action that we're doing here as you explained to us many times that it comes from the word sacrifice, that we are sacrificing ourselves towards the ten and doing a sacrifice on that and that's the mechanism?

R. Yes, that's the mechanism.

Reading excerpt 6: (01:05:38) “When one begins the work…”

36. R. (01:06:55) That is indeed very important but after all the tricks and all the tactics and all the efforts that we do we come to a state where only the Creator can do something.

Reading excerpt 6 again: (01:07:16): “When one begins the work…”

37. R. (01:08:36) Yes. That's what we have to attain, only the Creator can do and he is doing all the obstacles he is arranging all the degrees and the falls and the ascents. He does everything so that on top of them we will format ourselves, we will organize ourselves in such a way that we will be able to adapt ourselves to his revelation fully.

38. S. (01:09:12) How in that state should he not ask for himself? It sounds like I don't succeed to connect, so I ask for myself?

R. Okay, you can't but what can't you do? You can't connect with the friends, you can't give contentment to the Creator, you can't come in order to bestow in every action, every thought as to be able to do it. No, I don't care about it, I don't want it, I don't feel the deficiency for it so ask to have that deficiency. This is called a deficiency when you don't have a deficiency.

S. It's simply written that you're not allowed to ask for yourself even if it is to bestow so how does that connect to that?

R. Ask for the deficiency to bestow, ask for the deficiency to bestow. It will be accepted. It will be accepted if a person tried to connect with the friends and he sees that he can't, the Creator is showing him that he is incapable, this means the Creator is inviting him to pray, to ask for the force to bestow in order to be connected with the friends, in order to reach adhesion with the Creator.

S. For a long time I've not managed to understand what it is to turn to the Creator through the ten so I'm kind of waiting for the answer to come from somewhere but it's a very long time so what to do?

R. To keep going, keep going, everything within your power to do you should do in each and every state and do not despair and also it's not simple but whatever the mind doesn't do, time does. There are things that we should seemingly be patient about and the Creator will finish it for us, that's how it is. Meaning let the Creator work. All of our work is called the work of the Creator whatever we do we do and the Creator above all of it He is doing his part. So the more you can annul toward the teacher, the Creator, the friends, the group, the prayer all those things. The more you can annul before them, you should annul before them and this will bring you to correction. In our time we're in a world where it's not so difficult. Already 30, 40, 50 years ago when people had all kinds of goals in life, you could make money, you could work, you could do something.

Today the world is deteriorating, it's starting to lose these abilities to give fulfillment to our beastly will to receive so it's seemingly easier but together with that we need to be drawn to higher things, be drawn to higher things and soon you will see that humanity will start to turn in that direction as well. Really because of the absence of fulfillment, orientation, knowledge, all the things that we have in this world people will come to this new search and they will approach the spiritual search. In the beginning it will be like us, like we did it initially egotistically, to attain, to feel, to understand, to control and so on and so forth. This is called Lo Lishma and later from Lo Lishma we come to Lishma.

S. When we do a common prayer at the end of the lesson I can hear the prayer of the friend, what he's asking and then to pray for him, to his prayer?

R. Why not? Why not? Of course you can, it's always good to incorporate with the friends.

39. S. (01:14:32) How will we learn to relinquish self benefit every time something external comes in a different perspective, like I was at an event yesterday that I got inspired by what some student from the second semester did, he left some birthday to come to our workshop?

R. There is something to learn here. You have to tell each other things because a person should not conceal the good things that he's doing because by that he actually increases the peace. So we should tell about the good things we are doing. To disclose that, is what it says.

40. S. (01:15:36) Not to ask for correction, not to ask for oneself, that means not to ask for my attitude towards the friends or not my own pleasures?

R. These things are a little far from us but the important thing is to ask for the opportunity to bestow, the opportunity to feel the friends, to connect to them, whether or not to enjoy that is already a next level.

41. S. (01:16:21) I don't understand what you said, humanity will want connection, naturally they will just start connecting without resistance or what?

R. We are doing our work, we are connected to the humanity although we are tiny in numbers but we're great spiritually, the degree of the spirit of the Ruach in humanity will feel it and then it turns out that they would want what we want now they will also want it but for them it will be a little different. It will be a little different, we will come and see it. That is what I want to say, so will we do for ourselves and we do for all of the humanity, for the whole world.

S. What will cause them to come closer to spiritual search because there is suffering today too in not coming closer?

R. It's not coming because it doesn't feel any purpose or worthwhile pleasure.

S. So what will cause them to feel something worth connecting?

R. The lights that we awaken will shine on them, through us, a little bit but this will be enough for everyone to be enthusiastic about it and run after it. Will start searching, talking, writing, so it should be there in the air.

S. What exactly will they get inspired from?

R. From the ability to obtain something else that belongs above nature.

S. They will define it as the Creator that upper force for us?

R. No, that will lead to many disputes but however they will yearn, don't you remember how you had these yearnings for spirituality? In the first days you came, you were searching and there was something else, maybe it was so internal you could not express it by any word, there was such a thing each of us had it. That's how they will have it soon, soon, wait, more steps will go by and let's hope it won't be with the world war and that's how it will happen.

S. So you see the masses, the general public, start yearning for spirituality?

R. Yes.

S. And where are we?

R. We are the top of the pyramid and the more we evolve we shine on them and they evolve.

S. And we're working with them or it's a completely different way of working?

R. I don’t think it will depend on some communication through matters through books, maybe to certain extent but not much but the main thing is in the spirit.

S. What does it mean, the spirit, in the air, what you're saying?

R. We have to work, you have to work a lot about dissemination, explaining, educating but the main thing is the wind, what we feel between us it dips on them and they start being excited about it. This is how the knowledge of the Creator is being revealed in the world.

42. S. (01:20:47) Going back to the part that we read when we reach the state of despair, we always need to ask of the Creator or is it enough to ask from my ten?

R. If you can do it with the Creator so at least from your ten but it's best that along with your ten then you will ask the Creator.

43. S. (01:21:25) In Latin America in the last few decades, there was an explosion of spiritual movements, more religious but this pressure, this movement, is that about the awakening of points in the heart that are bringing them to Kabbalah eventually?

R. That is ultimately it is related to the end and it brings things, humanity in that direction and that is what I can say. I won't go into more details but everything that is being revealed, even the worst things, it is too bad that they are going to be revealed in such bad things but ultimately it will bring all of us closer to the end.

44. S. (01:22:31) In the first quote we have read in the lesson, he said when his prayers are accepted, does he mean the personal prayer or the ten prayer?

R. Man's personal prayer is being accepted in a very, very minimal manner because still there is no vessel, the vessel is the ten or at least two or three. Some extent of annulment of a person to another, that is the vessel where he is worthy of receiving additional spirituality. If he has no room, meaning no desire that annuls itself to the other or the Creator so where will he receive this addition of spirituality? So it turns out for him that he cannot advance, that's why it has to be in a certain group, small, big, to annul himself as much as possible and to the extent that he annuls and he would receive an addition of spirituality every time. Here we have to understand that Arvut, mutual responsibility, is very important to the extent that he annulls himself to the friends, the extent of his vessel is bigger.

45. S. (01:24:34) How to work if we feel disconnected from the ten?

R. That doesn't matter, the main thing is what one has in his heart, many of you have children and you understand that a mother always cares about her own, what is going on with her child now, what is done with him now. So this is the same concern you should have with your ten and what about my ten, where is it now, what connection are they in and how can I feel them more.

46. S. (01:25:18) Is every correction a little bit that joins the sum?

R. Each connection is a little bit that adds to the great sum when the end of correction comes.

47. S. (01:25:37) I keep feeling things that come back again and again and it can’t be corrected even with prayer, how to correct it?

R. Only by complete prayer to the Creator.

48. S. (01:25:53) How to help a friend in the ten and that admitted that she is in the dead end, she doesn't feel the states changing and she's losing feelings in the spiritual work?

R. Just simply try to talk to her, maybe you can even talk to her husband but that takes special case so that we can all help her, nonetheless, understand that along with her children, family, work, there is something else that a person lets go of all these states and she can go to something higher and more internal. Too bad to close our life only to the framework of this world, it is over, it is over soon. Want to talk about it.

49. S. (01:27:03) To see myself as new every moment doesn't mean I am praying every moment?

R. Yes, if I want to advance to this final point that is called the final action is in the preliminary thought, so I should mark this state for myself that we're all connected together and we're in such a degree that we can discover the Creator within us and that is where I should come to, that is what I should reach.

50. S. (01:27:48) How does the greatness of the Creator affect us when we give the feeling of renewing in the prayer in the ten in every moment?

R. Connected to each other.

51. S. (01:28:04) In order to reach a state of true prayer we need to be in complete despair and cry to the Creator but here Rabash says you should not let thoughts of despair enter in his mind, so if we do feel despair how do we pray correctly to the Creator?

R. There are many things but the main thing is that we need to help each other, try, support, try to help as much as possible. Sometimes we are in great distances so we cannot physically meet. What can you do? Have some virtual coffee shop between yourselves, each can sit with her cup of coffee just like I am sitting here and you should be able to talk and drink a cup of coffee, what stands in our way. You should do something with your life so that our connection will be sweeter.
