Question: In the past, in Ukrainian villages, they would build a house in one day. All the villagers would come together and build it. Is it possible in a Kabbalist group, when people would gather and give all their strength and all their energy in order to help others in some way?

Answer: I think that now the Creator will bring us to this. He will invite very big changes in the economy. Masses of people will become unemployed. They will understand that in order to survive, they will need to unite and in this way will find a correct system for connection and unity. With our help, they will find it, and specifically in this form they will exist, doing everything together.

But since this will already be unity at a higher level, it will feed everyone with enormous energy. Baal HaSulam writes about this in the book The Last Generation. Thus, I think, that we are approaching this. Or through our dissemination and consciousness, or via big blows, in any case, humanity will quickly discover that without the correct connection and unity, including the previous studying, education, and knowledge, it will be impossible to do anything.

This is what we see today in Europe. They wanted to connect between them without any inner preparation, and now are separating. And this was a great problem for them. These were normal blows: Everything will fall; everything will collapse just to show people the necessity of unity.

The movement itself is correct, only not in the capitalistic ideology where each one takes for oneself all that he can, but a different ideology. Thus, we will be building together.

Question: In lectures for the 99% can I use the examples of threats of war, famine, and crisis? To what extent can we use them?

Answer: You should not use examples in this form. You just need to show the development of the world and where it is heading and to do this in a scientific way, explaining that in accordance with the development of our egoism, there may be some problems, etc.

The crisis will not pass on its own; we have to correct it in ourselves: This is the crisis of relations between people, not a financial, economic, or environmental crisis. That is, nature is against us, and we are its ever-growing opponents. We need to show people where it is heading from a scientific point of view, without feelings. Of course, all this leads to wars and big problems if we do not step in and begin to move the world towards balance. We are able to solve this problem.

Question: Why do the masses need to work in the group when we can just give them a book where everything is explained?

Answer: Where will people create the Kli, vessel, where they will begin to experience higher energy? They need practice!

Even if they have nothing to do with Kabbalah, they still need to feel that unity has a special power by which they can change the world, transform everything around them, and see everything deeper. With the help of this force, the property of bestowal, they begin to see as if with X-ray vision into history, into matter. They rise above time, space, and motion to the next dimension. If they do not practice with each other and only read it while lying on a couch, then nothing will change. Reading is good for training, to “warm up,” but not for realization.

Question: Should physical meetings be mandatory?

Answer: Yes, it has been practiced by Kabbalists from time immemorial because contact between people, here, in person is required; you have to implement this.

The Creator is not manifested in one person; He will manifest Himself only in the contact between people. Therefore in addition to you, there must be at least one more person. But it is difficult to work with two people. A group of ten is ideal.

Question: Is the fear whether you can bestow upon the Creator based on tangible fears or does it replaces them?

Answer: The fear of the Creator replaces all the earthly fears. Tangible fears are only an incentive, a condition from which we must come to a different fear.

You cannot be disturbed by several fears. This happens only in our world because of confusion and misunderstanding. But as soon as you approach the truth, it becomes clear to you become that there is only one source and only one reason for everything happening.

Then, your fears are no longer directed in different ways regarding money, honor, health, various benefits, or fear that someone may hurt you. If you are really moving towards the Creator, then you have a clear knowledge and feeling that He is the source of all things. So, what should you worry about?

You aim only at the Creator. Everything else is revealed to you only as a reason for the different fears so that on the basis of them you recognize that there is none else besides the Creator. Whom else could you fear?

Will the time come when egoism is not against me, but “for” me, together with me?

This will happen when I move egoism completely away from me, put it in front of me, and separate us by restriction and the screen. Then, I will be able to begin to work with it like as help, and not against, but “for” me.

In other words, it is when we reach the state called Hafetz Hesed, the properties of Bina, and then rise further to the property of Keter.

After I fully master the property of Bina and I have the screen for this, when I can do with my egoism whatever I want, then I am starting to use it in the positive area. In the first stage, I only cancel egoism, and in the second stage, I begin to work with it for myself. This “beast” is already so tame that I simply use it for myself, and the darkness becomes the Light.

Question: What should be the result of studying the integral method in one’s feelings and mind, for the 99%, and for us?

Answer: When you teach the method of the “Transition from ‘I’ to ‘We,’” you need to understand that by doing this you create the same contact for people without a point in the heart as you have. Only they do not feel this movement forward as strongly as you do.

But it will still be manifesting in them. After all, everyone has a point in the heart; everyone comes from the Creator! We all are pieces of a single vessel, Kli, which broke into billions of pieces, and this is why their point in the heart is still very deep in them in a concealed state.

This is why you constantly give them energy through lectures, classes, and seminars, and it manifests their points in the heart, like an image on photographic paper, which is being developed. They will suddenly begin to feel it.

Suddenly, there will be people among them who will aspire towards a more inner-knowledge and will want to study Kabbalah with you. And there will be people who will not want this, but unity will make them feel a life-giving force is manifesting in them, holding them, giving them a whole new spirit, another level of existence.

As for you, you are building a common Kli. 99% of the population joins the same system as you even though they do not understand or feel this system. But you begin to perceive this system in a more real way because of the pumping of the upper energy, the upper Light is happening though you.

Baal HaSulam, “A Handmaid that Is Heir to Her Mistress”: Know that a branch that extends from the internality is the people of Israel, which has been chosen as an operator of the general purpose and correction. It contains the preparation required for growing and developing until it moves the nations of the worlds, too, to achieve the common goal.

The branch that extends from the externality is the nations of the world. They have not been imparted the qualities that allow them to advance towards the purpose one at a time. Rather, they are fit to receive the correction at once and to the fullest, according to their Higher Root.

Question: What does that have to do with us?

Answer: When you, as Galgalta ve Eynaim (GE), by your gradual corrections, acquire the spiritual readiness, the AHP will join all at once. In contrast to the negativity that is revealed, the nations of the world will perceive your method “all at once.” It will be revealed suddenly: “Oh! That’s right!” without any accounts, calculations, or investigations. It’s amazing how the truth is revealed within the desire to receive.

We are confused because we also have the desire to bestow. On the whole, we are between the two desires and our systems are revealed very weakly. On the other hand, in the desire to receive that hardly has any traces of GE, the decision is taken very simply: “If the Light comes, I am with it, and if it doesn’t come, I am against it.”

Accordingly, the external attitude towards us will also take on extreme forms, either positive or negative ones.

Question: How is this reflected in our internal work?

Answer: We have to go over the sequence of our actions, of our internal states, as quickly as possible in order to be ready to connect with AHP and to save it. As Baal HaSulam says in the article “The Arvut (Mutual Guarantee),” this is our goal. Actually it’s the goal of all of creation. It’s like the metaphor that the Creator turned to the nations of the world first and offered them the method of correction, but then He gave it to the people of Israel because it’s only in this way, through this link, that they can receive it.

Question: Are you saying that we are lagging behind in carrying out this mission? That we are not revealing it enough?

Answer: We are not concerned enough about bringing this information of the method of correction to people, first in the form of mutual guarantee. We have to carry out a campaign for this method and for its revelation. Now we are intensifying our work on the Internet and I am asking everyone to join the department of virtual dissemination and to take part in the work. It’s very important. We are behind and we must hurry.

Question: But we are very anxious about what is happening in the world….

Answer: We should be anxious about not carrying out our mission. This should be our only concern. You should be anxious about the mission that you haven’t fulfilled and not about something else. Leave all your worries about the future so that it won’t weaken your dissemination work. Transfer all your anxieties and worries to the current dissemination campaign on the Net.

What’s more, the outcome should be one: to bring contentment to the Creator. If you want to stop the wars and the other problems in the world, you remain on the level of “local” calculations that don’t solve anything. On the corporeal level there will always be death and darkness. In order to pull the whole world upwards after us, you need a spiritual calculation, a yearning for the Creator, since there is none else besides Him.
