This is similar to ten people standing and looking at an airplane flying from afar. To the onlookers, the plane seems like a tiny dot. But some of the people have binoculars that magnify the plane several times in size. However, each of them has a different set of binoculars—one has binoculars that magnify significantly, and for another, it magnifies less.
It follows that one sees the plane as four meters long, another says it is three, and yet another says it is only two meters long. They are all reporting what they are actually seeing, but still there are differences between them. Yet, the differences make no change in the plane itself, for all the changes are only in the eyes of the perceivers (Rabash, Letter No. 19).
Question: How can we discern the forms of spiritual connection between us through the “common binoculars” of the ten?
Answer: Because we are oriented in different directions, we cannot consider the common binoculars of the ten. In order to obtain “common binoculars,” we must combine our visions and hearts toward one goal. And then we will see the Creator.
Question: Rabash writes that names (Partzufim) appear only in relation to the person who attains. How can we see something spiritual together since this is a personal experience?
Answer: It will come.
Question: Is it right for us to discuss at least something elementary? For example, how do we feel the importance of the goal in the ten or the level of connection?
Answer: Sure, discuss it.

Question: What is the correct intention that the light of the Creator will enter into?
Answer: The correct intention is to make an effort to do a good deed to bring souls closer to each other so that the Creator can reveal Himself in them and they can feel the pleasure that He can dwell within them.
The correct intention is to unite our desires so that the Creator can fulfill them.

Question: I feel that I cannot cope with my ego! Should I tell my friends about it or keep it to myself?
Answer: That you cannot cope is clear. But don’t look to discuss these issues with your friends as they have their problems. Instead, seek connection with the Creator.
Be wholeheartedly connected with your friends and at the same time turn your heart toward the Creator.
There is no need to involve your friends because you are in one state and each of them is in a different one. The most important thing is to seek connection with the Creator, and based on your connection with the group.
Question: So should I pretend that I am in a good mood?
Answer: Of course, always keep your friends in good spirits. Especially when you are in a low state.

Question: What is this state where my egoism desires the Creator? And even not just the Creator, but the quality of bestowal. How, while denying bestowal, can I want it? What is this state?
Answer: Gradually, under the influence of studying and working in a group, the importance of the quality of bestowal will arise within you.
You will feel how you begin to respect this quality; it becomes valuable to you because by possessing it, you can transcend time and space. There would be no difficulty or problem for you because the quality of bestowal is above our world.
Our world is the quality of reception, while the upper world is the quality of bestowal.

Question: When does the work in the ten begin and end?
Answer: Work in the ten begins when you feel that you have no other choice, you must be in a ten for the sake of attaining your soul, the Creator.
The end of the work in the ten occurs when the whole world is also connected to this ten and only one Partzuf of ten Sefirot is obtained.
This is the end of the correction of the whole creation.
That is all. That is, the whole work, in general, from beginning to end, is in the ten.

Question: Are Kabbalistic materials from twenty years ago appropriate for our time?
Answer: We record everything. There are very good materials from those years.
I’m moving with the group. The group is moving forward and no longer needs to chew through the material as it was in those years. Twenty years ago, for the first time, I took the Introduction to the Wisdom of Kabbalah with students: Sefirot, worlds, soul, structure. I chewed it all out for them in a way I can’t do today. I see people in front of me who don’t need to be told this.
Now I have to speak briefly. I express some new, more analytical internal data; synthesize the material from different sides, in different planes, and in a different way, and they already understand this.
That is, the material for beginners is no longer served in the simplicity that it was once taught. On the one hand, this is a big disadvantage. But, on the other hand, there is an archive.

Question: I feel my egoism has grown significantly. You said, “Either we annul egoism, or we elevate the importance of spirituality.” What should I do?
Answer: You should be glad that more and more egoism is revealed in you. You distance yourself from your friends; you do not want them, you do not want a group or any connection with others. These are all signs of growing egoism, and you should be glad about it.
That is, the left line develops in you, the growing ego, and the right line, correction, working with the ego despite it, must be aimed toward connection.
You must attract the upper light in order for it to create a second force in you, the force of attraction, so you will have two forces: the right and the left.
The fact that egoism is growing and you feel that you do not love your friends, do not want them, and push them away, are all signs of closeness.
