All our work consists in correcting the spiritual vessel, which is called the soul of the first man Adam HaRishon. The Creator created this common desire, and then shattered it into many pieces. And now in each of us there is a tiny particle of that common soul.

We are called human, that is, “sons of Adam,” because we come out of the desire, which is called Adam HaRishon. Our task is to unite our disconnected, distant, separated desires back into one desire through our efforts.

Of course a lot of work is required here because all these particles have separated and moved away from each other due to the differences in their forms. And how is it possible to glue together completely different desires? We begin to examine according to what qualities it is possible to combine one desire with another until we get a single whole in which everything is connected together.

And the more desires this common desire absorbs, the more it feels and reveals the upper force that created it.

Therefore all our actions should be aimed at connection. This determines the whole attitude to life, to the Creator, to the friends, and to oneself and one’s state. With each of my actions, thoughts, and desires, I strive to push the connection forward in order to further bring together and unite different desires and turn them into one single common desire for mutual bestowal.

All private desires are broken and do not want to connect. The Creator did this on purpose to give us the opportunity to feel the difference between a broken desire and a whole one. And due to this we begin to attain the Creator as the advantage of light from darkness.

The Creator divided the common desire into billions of opposite parts, and then He helps us, at our request, put them together and make up for each other. When we combine all the pros and cons together, we feel how powerful a united desire is compared to the weakness and insignificance of a shattered one.

On this difference of potentials—between plus and minus, between connection and division—we will feel the full power and depth of creation, we will attain the intention and work of the Creator, and ourselves.
