Question: We see wars, suffering, and natural disasters worldwide. Is it possible to say that so far humanity has not chosen the path of Achishena (hastening)?
Answer: Yes, humanity has not chosen the path of hastening (Achishena). It should have, but it did not.
It is said, “What the mind does not do, time does.” Therefore, we must continue to try to reveal the Creator, reveal ourselves, and wish for better times.

From the Daily Kabbalah Lesson 2/13/24, Writings of Baal HaSulam “Rewarded—I Will Hasten It”

That is, if there is Hesed in the world, the Shechina is in the world, as well, and vice versa (Rabash, Article No. 4, “Concerning Hesed [Mercy]“).
Question: When there is no mercy in the world, why is there no Shechina?
Answer: If there is no light of Hassadim in the world, then the Shechina cannot come into the world and reveal itself. It is waiting for the light of Hassadim, the property of Hesed (mercy), to appear in the created beings.
Question: Can we attract the light of Hassadim in the ten?
Answer: Yes, in the ten we can cause the revelation of the Shechina by uniting and mutually aspiring for each other—friend to friend.

Question: What are the sensations I feel in the ten: love, inspiration, and fluttering of the heart?
Answer: This is what the Creator sends to you. So, in any case, thank Him and reciprocate these feelings.
Question: Fear and awe come from the greatness of the Creator and the greatness of the friends.
Do these two properties help us reach the middle line?
Answer: Fear and awe coexist in such a way that they create the right attitude toward others in us that will be the middle line where you can bestow to the Creator.

Question: In physical actions it is obvious when the repetition of a transgression becomes permissible. For example, I did not turn off my camera before, but now I do, or I did not arrive late to meetings before, but now I do. The same tendency can develop in a friend. How should a ten handle these states? Is this a common scrutiny within the ten?
Answer: Yes, it is a common scrutiny. Everyone who comes to the lesson should care about those who have not come yet. This is very important!
Every person who is late is responsible, in principle, not for themselves, but for those friends who for some reason forgot about them or did not bring them along.

Question: What does it mean to be in the same circle with friends?
Answer: Studying together, conducting workshops, and participating in various events that bring you closer together and advance you toward the Creator mean that you are in the same circle with friends.
Help them, and they will help everyone else in the ten. In this way, you will all rise together because a person ascends spiritual degrees through being lifted by the group.
Question: How can we learn to accept praise from the ten and not feel shame?
Answer: No, we should praise the ten and praise the Creator for giving us the friends thanks to whom we can advance. Everything we receive from the environment we attribute to the Creator because it is He who gives the friends the desire to lift up the entire ten.

Comment: In the article “What Is, ‘The Smell of His Garments,’ in the Work?” there are several definitions of what a descent is and what the absence of bestowing Kelim is. And at the same time, during the ascent we must look for a descent. And this is now the state of the Creator. Help me define it somehow or link it into one single thing.
My Response: I cannot give you one brief piece of advice right now so that you could follow it and move forward clearly.
You have to ask yourself the same question every day and try to find the answer to it. And gradually, over the course of maybe even a few weeks, you will be able to imagine a clear picture.

Question: We see spiritual qualities of a friend in how he makes efforts, and we appreciate them. But his egoistic qualities are the same as mine and do not allow us to get closer to each other. How can we work with this so that it does not interfere with spiritual connection?
Answer: You must overcome your contradictions with him, force your way through his attitude, and then you will understand how it is done and act correctly.
Question: And if you cannot overcome your egoism?
Answer: Ask him to help you.

Question: What is the property of water in the spiritual world?
Answer: Water embodies the quality of bestowal; even, one might say, love. All of humanity came out of water.
A child developing inside the mother is also in water. Water is the basis of life.
