Part 1:

Rabash. Article No. 13, (1986). Come unto Pharaoh – 2

1. S. (58:01) Why was the wisdom of Kabbalah given only to people with piercing self criticism who are willing to devote themselves to discover the truth, why is it so?

R. Because otherwise they don't attain the states by which they can feel the essence of creation purpose of creation.

2. S. (58:32) Yesterday we reread the article and we tried to write questions about it like you mentioned and recommended a few times; first of all it awakened very good things because we engaged in in lack of the article the deficiency in it if the friend asked the question and another friend didn't understand it we tried to complete each other with deficiency it was a true adventure and now listening to the article again we have a few questions, I will start with one if you want we can continue with more; so first of all he says, he talks about the matter of action and intention so he writes the intention and this is called the concealed part when the intention and the action one is doing others cannot see what is his intention, those actions are also he himself cannot see the intention of the action. Our question is, what does it mean that the intention is also hidden from the person himself? how to look for the right intention to know how to aim well?

R. A person doesn't know what his true intention is because the question that raising him are such that you can say they’re external, more internal questions they will maybe arise later over time. The intention that we speak of that there is in man, why he's doing what he's doing, that’s the force that comes from the Creator, it clothes in men and awakens man to some action and it's truly is concealed from it.

S. But when this force appears the man's intention is clear to him?

R. Yes, yes.

S. He writes about the matter of the first level and the second level there are many questions on that, the first level is the love of friends and the second level is love of the Creator, so one of the questions is, how through the corrections in the first level which are correction with a friend we learn to speak to the Creator face to face, he writes that through the corrections we learn to speak to the king face-to-face, so how does it happen?

R. Because in our work with the friends we slowly gradually reveal that is not work with the friends but with the Creator and thus from the first moment we are already with him in connection and in mutual common work.

S.But the matter of face to face, with the friends we heard that the Creator lies behind the friends?

R. And so?

S. And in the connection with the friends when we want to bestow to them we don't bestow directly face to face, I don't know how to ask it really?

R. In our work we are with the friends, with the Creator and in some form between us even man with himself, we must be in incorrect relations with the broken parts of creation and join them together to one body.

3. S. (01:03:00) I understand there is different kinds of work here in the one hand they will to receive tells the person do only actions because intention is something for unique individuals and by that it pushes the person out of work, on the other hand it says do the intention forget about the action the action doesn't lead to anything and that breaks the person too because he's powerless so these are two kind of different work?

R. No, these are not two types of work rather these are aimed at the man that goes through one stage and then comes to second stage.

S. So it's more advanced that the will to receive tells him don't work Lo Lishma go for bestowal right away?

R. They're all sorts of calculations and disturbances in the part of the will to receive that also appears more logical and the person joins this process more easily and thus it turns out, that a person easily exits the path to this way but from the other hand he also comes back to it and continues correctly. It is this it's a type of study, learning.

S. So it's not different kinds of work it's just from all directions, the will to receive tries to deflect you from the path?

R. I would say it's not exactly like that the will to receive all in all is an angel and performs whatever the Creator wants of it, and after many actions that it confuses a person in order for a person to be more slicker, more understanding, more feeling; it needs to be educated properly then he brings a person to the correct contact.

S. According to what he writes here the Egyptians just chased Israel and explained to them that they should work in order to bestow Lishma?

R. Yes, yes. They would ran after Israel and explain to them that it's worthwhile for them to be in the intention to bestow but in action and not intention. That if you perform some actions, commandments in actions that supposedly in this you're also fulfilling the intention.

S. When we are talking about action we should understand that it's connection in the group right, that's the action?

R. Yes yes.

4. S. (01:06:36) What about the work for men and work for women is it the matter of ups and downs? that each time the will to receive….. okay and there is the goal that the end is to come out of Egypt is there such a thing to go out of Egypt when you're still doing women's work?

R. Also. We read in the Hagada that man, women and even slaves, everyone who wanted to join them exit Egypt.

S. We have the ability to discern in what kind of work we're doing?

R. Yes.

S. So how is it by what?

R. By this that we will perform the actions in all sorts of forms of will to receive an intentions and we see who accompanies us to exit Egypt and who doesn't want.

5. S. (01:07:58) After the parable of the first level and second level there is the concluding paragraph I wanted to understand better; the one doesn't take the remedy from love of friends called love of others but because he was told there's no choice and otherwise he can’t come to the love of the Creator, for that he's engaged in love of friends and does all the commitments that his friends commit him too but from now on he has to see that he’s not exiting self love and he's not reaching love of others he's engaging in love with friends not because of love but because of fear because love of the Creator he cannot be admitted to it before he enters love of friends; so there’s a question here, we are engaged in this work and we feel like a obligation from everyday from the obligations from the inertia sometimes we engage in this work of connection in the Ten and it feels like there’s definitely he’s done out of fear and not out of love so the question is how to engage in love with friends out of love?

R. We’ll advance, we’ll advance and we’ll get into it yes, because of the reason for love of the Creator we will engage also between us in love of friends and love of created beings because otherwise we won't reach love of the Creator.

S. Meaning if there is a true demand to reach the love of the Creator that's the

R. This is what awakens us to love of the created beings, yes.

6. S. (01:10:03) Following that, is as if going against the rule from Lo Lishma we come to Lishma, if he does it out of fear he can't do it out of love so why is it an incorrect path, what's the mistake here?

R. It's not a mistake but to carry it out because of fear it's not the goal, its means.

S. Yes, but that's his degree for now he can do it otherwise?

R. That's fine, if that's his degree and doesn’t feel anything, any unease with it, anything uncomfortable he's just given a sensation that onwards is not his place

S. Yes, it says here that he cannot exit himself?

R. Yes.

7. S. (01:11:05) It says in the article that ones goal is the king and not what he can learn on the first level because his goal is not to study it, his goal is to see the king's face, so is that the correct goal and what is the correct goal?

R. Correct the goal of the work is to reach adhesion between us and from that to adhesion with the Creator.

8. S. (01:11:38) In Egypt what's the use of replacing the women's work with men's work?

R. The opposite.

S. Yes, so why do men don't do the work the same as women?

R. Because they haven't reached the correct intention yet, that's the whole matter.

9. S. (01:12:18) The question is who are the Egyptians who approached Israel with the soft mouth in the work; who are the Egyptians that approached Israel with soft mouth in the work?

R. I didn't understand the question.

S. He writes about those Egyptians who come to us with a soft mouth in the work, who are they?

R. They are our internal desires that tell us it's not really worthwhile to work with the intention to bestow rather in this day sway us off the path from a very narrow bridge to the goal.

10. S. (01:13:24) What are the degree in love of friends and how can we develop a common understanding for them in the article it says we should know that In love of friends too they are degrees meaning we must contemplate the obligation of love of friends?

R. Repeat.

S. He says that in the article it says that in love of friends there's also pleasure meaning that we have to think about the obligation towards love of friends, so he's asking what are those degrees in love of friends and how can we develop the same understanding and scrutiny of these degrees?

R. We connect more and more and reach love of friends in such a manner that it turns into love of the Creator, so we can say in general, all right?

11. S. (01:14:37) Good morning we have two questions. He mentions the example that a person feels that he is in mortification, sometimes I feel like that in our workshops that I'm just waiting for the workshop to end because I just can't listen to what the friends are talking about, so what can I do with that state?

R. You have to try and reach love, love covers all crimes and then you won't feel any deed that won't that you can not stand.

S. How do I do it?

R. Try it, try and love simply.

12. S. (01:15:47) Recently like the friend said this is really what happened, the thoughts from above enter and confuse you a lot and to give an example, many things came to me during before the lesson, excuses that I could do a whole bunch of things instead of coming to the lesson but all of a sudden he also put in me the thought not to listen to myself but to listen to the words of the sages and also reminded me that this is love of friends to come and be with them?

R. It is a bit of love of friends.

13. S. (01:16:47) What is the difference between the work of men and the work of women it's not clear?

R. The work of the work of women is more working in deed, the work of men is more of work in intentions.

S. What is the difference between an act and the intention?

R. I'm not going to get into this now.

14. S. (01:17:34) In all our relations when we work in our ten how can I start seeing our relations with Pharaoh and the most important thing is how to put the Creator into these relations? How can we bring the story we read closer to our work?

R. To the extent that we can ascribe Pharaoh's questions that they come to us from the Creator then we can advance.

S. These questions that come by Pharaoh, how can we identify them in our ten? Not just as bad thoughts I have or as disturbances but rather that we work with the Creator and Pharaoh specifically?

R. Try more and more to be connected in the ten, from that connection and confusion also that will be between you, you will be able to tell the difference between every reason whether it's Pharaoh or the Creator and then in every goal, that is how it is going to be.

15. S. (01:19:03) Regarding the matter of the Egyptians all the time confusing us, when a person thinks that the main thing is act rather than the intention and when does the person think when a person thinks that the main thing is the intention rather than the act, so what's the solution? Should we connect these things that both are important?

R. Of course the main thing is the deed. In our deeds we have to be together.

S. So it turns out that the Egyptians when they confuse and shake a person from one place to another that's how to promote him?

R. All the bad thoughts and confusions only help us advance, help us scrutinize who the justice is with.

S. If I may ask one more question, these cities Pithom and Ramses they had to start again everyday and suddenly they saw they never engaged in spiritual work that's what I wanted to ask, why is the spiritual work concealed from a person?

R. Because if you didn't reach in order to bestow yet he doesn't need to see his work that he is succeeding in it.

16. S. (01:20:47) It says why did the Creator burden the heart of man so he couldn't win the war of inclination alone? The answer is that the intention is that for men to cry out to the Creator and that will give him a vessel. The question is, is everything a person goes through only for him to reach the outcry or to bring the environment around him to ask for him or the person has to reach the request?

R. Man must first reach the right request, then whoever has to be mixed in there whether society or the whole world or all together that already will happen.

17. S. (01:21:44) It says in the article that man through love of friends learns how not to blemish the King’s honor. How can the love of friends, work with love of friends teach me not to blemish the King’s honor?

R. Because when I'm connected to the group I gradually recognize in the group that we are working for the sake of the King and then I cannot blemish, I can't hurt His glory, His honor.

18. S. (01:22:33) A question from a friend from a new ten, if we take our time in the first floor to love the friends and to fight against self-love how can we know when the time is to the climb to the second floor?

R. I don't understand what she's asking.

S. What she’s asking is when you start engaging in love with friends on the first floor, when is the right time, how can you know that the time is right for the second floor?

R. It opens on its own, from one to the other, from the 3rd to the 4th and so on. We don't have to know, there are no road signs. We feel ourselves that it’s like that.

19. S. (01:24:06) What characterizes the real prayer that will be accepted?

R. That you feel the question and the answer, the way they connect and as much as they enter inside you and build a nice new attitude in the mechanism of the connection between you. That is called that you understand your question and you understand the answer that came from above.

20. S. (02:24:49) With the help of our friends the Creator shows us our own flaws, the deficiencies that are in us and so for us they are righteous our friends. So where is the action of Pharaoh here, where does he confuse us?

R. No, you have to discover that there are all kinds of thoughts, desires and goals that aren't exactly correct, they’re a bit alien. You needs to discern between these and those, the thoughts desires, phenomena, goals and you should increase these upon those. That is what you need to do.

S. So it's not always that through the friends you receive what we need in order to correct ourselves?

R. Not always, yes and no.

21. S. (01:26:20) I don't understand why the love of friends leads me to love the Creator?

R. Because in the love of the others, of the friends we see as much as the Creator helps us compared to the extent that we ourselves can reach connection. That’s why from the love of the created beings to the love of the Creator.

S. Why is it that through love of friends we see that the Creator helps us?

R. Otherwise how will He be revealed? He needs some condition that is close to Him, so that is the love of the created beings, the love of friends.

S. If I reach love of friends, that I will really love them, I will love them, not imagining or performing actions or exertion towards it, does that mean I'm going to love the quality of love?

R. Yes.

22. S. (02:27:52) What should a person learn from love of friends?

R. From love of friends a person should learn that there is this thing, that they come out of self love and feel reality through someone who is outside of himself.

S. Does that help him advance to love of the Creator?

R. Yes because the love of the others and the love of the Creator is outside of a person, both of them. That’s why the first stage is love of others and in it there's already a passage through the love of something completely external which is the Creator.

23. S. (01:29:11) He starts the article with the question why come unto Pharaoh, why come, not go? Then he opens up this question and says that the Creator could take care of it alone or to give the vessels to Moses, that he will take care of it. No, he says come unto Pharaoh. In the end of article he says the purpose of creation is Israel, the Creator and the light are one. On the way he says you have to go through love of friends but how does that answer the question? Why come unto Pharaoh and why together, why do we need to go together?

R. Because without the help of the Creator a person can’t feel the others, can't feel through the others what the Creator wants to tell him. The Creator can't open Himself inside the person but the approach is determined through the others and that's where they meet. And then a person learns how to come out of himself to the others and the Creator also comes into the others and that's where he understands the Creator.

S. Where is Pharaoh, inside man the Creator and the others?

R. Pharaoh is as a person's basic desire.

S. Meaning he basically says you can't face this big desire in you, Pharaoh unless you turn to others. Then you discover the Creator that will help you?

R. Yes.

S. So that's the essence of this article?

R. Oh, let's say.

24. S. (01:31:28) Maybe I'm a bit confused but it turns out that in order for me to love the friends I need to reveal the Creator?

R. Of course, what's the question?

S. So it places the love of friends as the goal rather than the revelation of the Creator.

R. In order to reach love of the Creator I must reach love of the created beings.

S. And vice versa? To reach love of others I need..

R. You need help from the Creator obviously but not that you can be in love towards the Creator beforehand.

S. Not to love the Creator but in order for me to love them it has to be revealed, it has to be clothed in me so I can love them?

R. Right, right, that’s called that He changes your nature, yes.

S. Maybe it's not the same thing but it’s simultaneous, love of friends and love of the Creator, the revelation of the Creator. It’s all in the same instant, it’s one system. You can't have one action without the other as well?

R. No, first love of the created beings then love of the Creator.

S. But how will I love them if the Creator is not clothed in me first?

R. He clothes in you to the extent you can connect with them and in that connection with the friends, man's connection with the friends there he can also know and learn the attitude towards the Creator.

S. But how will I connect to them if the quality of the Creator, the quality of bestowal is not in me first, where will the connection come from? I will remain egoistic.

R. You get closer to them. That's why now already you were giving this attitude, this relation towards the friends, this relation towards the others, towards the group. That's why it’s already in us on the corporeal worldly degree.

25. S. (01:34:17) Today this article is better felt in all of our hearts. What should a person come out with in the end of the scrutiny with all the states he went through in this article?

R. That he scrutinizes his relationships with the Creator, with the friends and how they’re connected to each other and how through the love of the created beings to reach the love of the Creator.

S. How through the work with the friends can I notice that my evil inclination only gets bigger and bigger? As he says in this article and it becomes wiser, more manipulations are done, it tells me you did something good, let's connect with the friends, let’s have a prayer, perform corrections but it's all some deceit that my evil inclination is feeding me. In this work how can I help myself with a friends to come out of this lie?

R. I think you need to read the article again on your own and start feeling your relationships with the friends and the Creator from new. Try. We’ll speak about it.

26. S. (01:35:45) I’d like to scrutinize what you said to the friend. What you told him is to build a common area with the friends where we can reveal the Creator, the upper force?

R. Yes.

S. Second question, the more we increase our deficiency the more importance we have. What he says here is there is importance to guard the gift. What is the gift, is that the deficiency or the fulfillment?

R. A deficiency.

S. How do I guard it all the time?

R. Check, read it again and discuss it between you.
