Question: What quality of connection should be in the ten in each state so that it corresponds to the revelation of the Creator?
Answer: The most important and correct thing is to unite everyone with everyone and all together.
Question: How do you learn to connect your thoughts and desires with the ten in a strong bond so that there is only one goal: to bring contentment to the Creator?
Answer: To do this, you must get out of yourself, incorporate yourself into your friends, and strive toward the Creator.
That is when all your efforts will lead you to a common goal and common unity.

Omer comes from the words “gathering sheaves,” which means connection.
The world is called “the six days of action and Shabbat [Sabbath],” which are seven Sefirot, and there is Hitkalelut [incorporation] of the Sefirot. Therefore, we must connect ourselves to the Creator on all the days of the years of our lives, which are seventy years, implying that each year comprises ten Sefirot. Rabash, Notes 938 “Concerning the Omer [Count]”
“Gathering sheaves” means to connect with each other so as to be in one bundle. Then we will be able to feel the attitude of the Creator toward us in this bundle (sheaf).
We all desire to reach one goal, and therefore we must strive only for it so that all our desires connect together. But it is the Creator who does this because we are not able to do it ourselves.
Question: How can we connect with the Creator in such a way as to acquire the quality of a certain Sefira from this sheaf?
Answer: It depends on the soul of each of us, on the desire of each person. For example, in striving to meet the Creator I attain Him in one way, and you follow your own path and attain Him in another way. But overall, each of us attains the root of our own soul.
Question: But the qualities in this sheaf, these Sefirot, are they still common?
Answer: Each person has their own.
Question: How can I reach a certain quality from the seven Sefirot as a result of connecting our different qualities?
Answer: You should only strive for connection, and what will result from it, what will be revealed to you from your connection with the Creator, you will see for yourself.

Preparation For Receiving The Torah: The Light Of Correction
Question: Why were the people of Israel granted the Torah by the Creator?
Answer: Initially, the people of Israel are the most egoistic of all the nations of the world. They may not feel this, but by their internal nature, they are exactly that.
Therefore, they needed the Torah to correct themselves. Without the Torah, this is impossible to achieve. Thus, the people of Israel must come to correction first and thereby show the way to the rest of the nations of the world.

My wife is thrilled with your programs and keeps pushing them on me. I watch them, mostly out of respect. I like some of it, but sometimes you say things that I do not know how to take. For example, you said that everyone is responsible for the whole world. Why do you say that? It is clearly impossible. But what amazes me is that my wife is delighted.
My Response: The fact is that when everyone feels responsible for the entire world, we will indeed see a new world.
Question: From this letter, it is clear that he does not understand how this is possible, while his wife is delighted. So each of us has certain points that either accept this or do not accept.
He imagines the whole world as eight billion people. So when you say “the whole world,” he thinks you are saying we are responsible for all these eight billion people, for what is happening in Somalia, in starving Africa, and so on. Are we responsible for this?
Answer: Yes.
Comment: This phrase requires some further explanation.
My Response: The thing is, if every person suddenly, let’s say, by a magical command, wished to see everyone else as their friends, the world would change. Undoubtedly! But since we do not believe in this because it seems too unrealistic, we continue as we are.
Question: But we are real people. This husband is an absolutely real person. He would like to sort things out at home, with his friends, and you say: sort things out with the whole world, be responsible for it.
This thought, this action can only happen “by a magical command,” right? So, are you sending us back to the Creator again?
Answer: To the Creator.
Question: Constantly?
Answer: Yes.
Question: So, a person comes, with this pain inside. Many people write that they feel this empathy. What prayer should a person have to the Creator? Should they ask to change everything or what?
Answer: That the Creator changes at least this person.
Question: This person?
Answer: Yes, so that he can feel the pain of the entire world and, based on this, relate to the world differently.
Question: Can one not fall apart and feel this pain? Not explode, not die from it?
Answer: It is possible.
Question: We spoke about the fact that Kabbalists aspired to this, it was their goal to feel the world, the pain of the world.
If a person feels all the pain of the world, what should his actions be, can you say?
Answer: To ask the Creator to make the world better. That is all, nothing more. The one who made the world bad should make it good.

Question: How can we bind ourselves to the Creator so that we won’t break away from Him, at least for a long time?
Answer: When you are connected to each other and at the same time with the Creator, and you constantly monitor this connection so that it does not decrease in any case but only increases, then gradually you will form a permanent connection with the Creator.
Question: What does it mean to monitor this connection?
Answer: Make sure that it does not disappear anywhere.

“And it is time of trouble for Jacob, but he will be saved from it,” for all the salvations are regarded as Anochi (Rabash, Letter No. 3).
Question: What does it mean that all the salvations are regarded as Anochi? After all, we study that we must rise above the ego in order to reach the quality of bestowal, to some kind of salvation.
Answer: Salvation occurs when the creation is absolutely devoted to the Creator. This is the reason for salvation.
Absolute devotion to the Creator is the adhesion of creation with the Creator without any conditions.
Question: Can we come to this devotion from any state?
Answer: From the states that are given to you, you will come to it.

Question: When attempting to implement bestowal to friends, sometimes we reveal a discrepancy. It turns out that we try to give the wrong thing, in the wrong way, or at the wrong time. How should we properly correct such situations?
Answer: When we intend to help someone or give something back to them, we focus only on our intentions.
Therefore, we cannot precisely measure who has a greater or lesser intention. We should try to do everything within our power.
Question: We try to work for the sake of bestowal, but when we make some decisions, not everyone immediately joins in. There are active friends and less active ones. Is it right to show initiative or should we wait until others join in?
Answer: You should show initiative and pull the less active ones along by your example, effort, and in any way possible.
