Question: The Creator created something new from the world of infinity, and now He tells us: “You have made Me”? Isn’t there a contradiction here?

Answer: No. The Creator created an egoistic desire that grew to egoistic similarity to Him where on one hand we want to absorb absolutely everything into ourselves, and on the other hand, we begin to correct ourselves and become completely similar to the Creator.

That is, from what I can do with myself, I become completely similar to the Creator. And this will bring absolute unification and equalization of properties.

On the foundation of the black point that separates me from Him, and precisely because of it, I and He will never become one, but we will be in complete unity in all our properties above this point. We will feel the merging with each other because of the point that separates us.

Question: Faith above reason and loving your neighbor, are they the same thing or are there differences?

Answer: Faith above reason is the Kli (vessel) we must create and reveal in it the property of bestowal, love, and connection between us and the Creator.

Question: Are we supposed to imagine that between us in the ten there is only love?

Answer: Yes, that is what you should imagine. And it doesn’t matter what you feel. It means nothing! This is the only way. And then you will see that it is only egoism that twists and lies all the time.

Question: Sometimes during a workshop it feels like we are in great love. Could it be that in the beginning faith above reason comes as in moments?

Answer: It is quite possible that this is how it happens to you. And it is also true.
