Question: The vain hare wanted a fox to guard his house. He built a booth and invited a fox into it. Since then, the hare has not entered his house. The fox would not let him in.

This is very similar to our lives. To our disadvantage, we choose all sorts of foxes to guard us, and then they drive us out of our house. They rob us and so on. And then we grieve that this is our fate. We chose them to guard the house. Why don’t we, the hares, see that they are foxes?

Answer: You desire these foxes and cannot resist them. You think your case will be better than others.

Question: Do you mean this fox will guard me?

Answer: Yes.

Question: It says very interestingly, “The vain hare wanted it.” So is there something still wrong with me?

Answer: The hare needs something more than he normally would.

Question: To avoid choosing a certain fox, I must stop being vain. So if we work on ourselves a little, who would we choose?

Answer: Proud, simple solitude.

Question: Why did you bring up this loneliness and say, “Proud, simple solitude”?

Answer: Because this is what we usually have. We are always alone both in this life and after this life.

Question: Despite having families and children?

Answer: It does not matter. You are still within yourself.

Question: Then I ask you, as a Kabbalist, where is the Creator here? I am by myself; where is the Creator?

Answer: This is what the Creator has prepared for you.

Question: Can this be considered a good thing, a gift?

Answer: Yes. You see happiness when you begin to feel that this whole world is in front of you and that you do not need it.

Question: I do not need this world. What do I need?

Answer: Nothing, you have everything—everything that was and will be—and you do not need anything.

Question: Is this what you call solitude?

Answer: This is what I call happiness.

Question: That I do not need anything, I have everything?

Answer: Yes.

Question: Can we say that the Creator provided me with all this?

Answer: Yes, it is called connection with the Creator.

Question: Is this the state you call solitude?

Answer: This is a state of solitude. But it is sweet, good, peaceful for you.

Comment: We are used to dealing with loneliness. In England, even a Minister of Loneliness has been elected. The same is true in other lonely countries.

My Response: These are their problems.

Comment: People are looking for some kind of contact. They do not even look; they are alone. For them, there is an organized search for contacts to connect them with others.

My Response: This is entirely unnecessary!

Question: It is understandable for you that your internal dialogue with the Creator is this higher power. How about the ordinary person?

Answer: An ordinary person needs it too. We need to teach this.

Question: We received letters stating: “I am lonely. How can I live in this loneliness?”

Answer: What do you want from others? Do you want something played out in front of you so that you have someone to cry to? You do not need any of this.

Question: Isn’t this sad?

Answer: Not at all.

Question: Where is the joy in this? You even spoke about happiness just now.

Answer: The joy and happiness is that I can exist with myself and do not need anyone else.

Question: That is, you, in principle, are encouraging a person to find himself in this loneliness?

Answer: A person is generally lonely.

Question: Is this a formula for you?

Answer: Yes, a person must exist within himself, and then he will be fine. He should not demand or expect anything from anyone.

Question: Must he live with the feeling that he already has everything he needs?

Answer: Exactly. Prepared in advance. His inner joy and his happiness.

Comment: Somehow, I am not very comfortable with this after all. We always talk about good connections and warm relationships with others.

My Response: If you rise to another level, it is completely different. You are already talking about a method for correcting the world.

Comment: Inner peace first. That is how it turns out.

My Response: Peace in oneself.

Comment: Please connect these two worlds.

My Response: When you imagine a world where there is everything for everyone, no one needs anything, and everyone is satisfied only with what they have, you will have a really happy world.

Question: So it does not consist of many, many solitudes?

Answer: No, it consists of many happy people sitting in their little niche and feeling good. Above all, there is the Creator.

Question: That is, he does not want any takeovers, anyone’s apartments, and so on. He is happy where he is. It sounds right, but how do we come to this?

Answer: All this is on a much higher level. But, in general, yes.

Question: Can you take it one level higher or explain this one more?

Answer: We do not drag someone into a dark corner or a mouse hole. On the contrary, we want to straighten a person’s head, shoulders, and mind.

Question: Is it correct to say that each one already has everything? Is this message correct?

Answer: Yes.

Comment: That is, it is what you live for, you have everything. Happiness and joy…

Answer: Everything!

Comment: And the Creator is with you.

Answer: Just discover Him.
