The group that Abraham organized in ancient Babylon was founded on the single principle that everyone was ready to achieve the state where he can be connected with another and to “love his neighbor as himself.” In the Torah and other sources this is noted as the most important commandment.
In general, it should be a commandment for all of humanity, but we see that people of that time could not implement it. Today we are facing this question once again.
Therefore, as Kabbalists have said, we exist in the state of the last generation that must bring this idea to life. We have all the means to do that. The same system that Abraham attained some time ago is becoming revealed for the entire humanity, and we have to realize this idea.
The essence of this system is that we have once again to gather into one single whole through our thoughts and feelings rather than with our bodies. The corporeal world has nothing to do with this. The main thing is the person’s aspiration that directs him or her toward becoming closer with others. Only in this case will we come to the state of loving the other as yourself.
As soon as we reach the smallest level, the minimal connection between us, then right away we will begin to sense the upper world through it, a different state, a different nature.
Our nature is felt in five corporeal senses, but in addition, we will also start sensing the upper nature through the connection between us. To the extent we are able to connect between us, we will experience a completely different universe, different world, and different nature that is built on the property of bestowal rather than the property of receiving.
Let’s say our earthy nature is considered as “minus” because it is constantly attracting others in a negative way, while the upper, spiritual nature is built on the principle of bestowal, “plus,” and we will begin to feel it.
The sensation of the positive nature is completely unlike what we see today. After all, we will start sensing the upper forces, life beyond the boundaries of time, space, and movement. We will start sensing eternal states.
Our correct use of egoism, meaning our ascent above it, will bring us to this state.

Question: In Rabash’s article, “Woe unto You Who Await the Day of the Lord,” it is written that the Creator has no lack, and therefore no desire—only a game. But isn’t the purpose of creation to delight His creatures, isn’t that the Creator’s desire?
