We have to know that all the souls extend from the soul of Adam HaRishon, for after he sinned in the sin of the Tree of Knowledge, his soul divided into 600,000 souls (Rabash, “What Is the Degree One Should Achieve in Order Not to Have to Reincarnate?”)
The single upper illumination was divided into 600,000 souls. These particles are in all people, in each person.
Question: We increase our small particles with the desire to unite, and each ten creates its own luminous block. We must ignite these sparks in the rest of the world by taking care of dissemination. Kabbalists already see this final part, is this why they have the strength to work without interruption until the end?
Answer: Generally speaking they do not have much strength. As the spiritual world is revealed to a person, he has less and less strength. He needs to make more efforts to unite the spiritual forces within himself and rise to the Creator.
Question: This is very noticeable before a convention. Egoism presses, we don’t want to care about our friends, we want to think less and to unite less. How can each of us imagine the final picture in which we are all united? What should we strive for?
Answer: Toward maximum connection with friends.
Question: Is it possible to awaken sparks of the Creator’s light in each person with our common prayer?
Answer: It is possible. With a common, united prayer, we can achieve complete correction, ascend to the world of infinity, and anything we wish.

Question: Before a convention, we set a goal in the ten to get as close as possible to each other and give each other the strength to feel the point of unity so that it would pull us forward. Will we have some other task at the convention? How can we properly prepare ourselves?
Answer: We are learning to unite with each other. Now we are taking the first steps. The biggest problem in the spiritual world is when people who are opposite to each other must meet and unite in such a way that the upper light of the Creator can be revealed in them.
Why is this necessary? We are egoists, and we were initially created that way. If we try to unite, we succeed in this only due to the resistance to our egoism. Therefore, all our work on ourselves consists only in overcoming the ego.
In this way, everyone puts their unification with others above everything else. This is our only task in the science of Kabbalah, which explains the structure of nature, the ten Sefirot, Partzufim, Olamot, the laws of unification, and the laws of commutation.
But all of these are purely external explanations. When we try to master these forces, we experience strong mutual rejection because egoism begins to awaken and does whatever it wants with us. And we can no longer quietly read about unification and rapprochement. This is the main thing in our world, at our level.
Therefore, we must try to unite in such a way that we can have a good impression of each other and gradually come closer to each other. This is what we must do.

Question: You said that one should pray to the Creator to point out mistakes and provide explanations. How can I receive these explanations and not confuse them with my own egoism?
Answer: You need to accept them as they come. This is how the Creator wants you to understand and realize your state. Then you should try to change them by drawing closer to your inner thoughts, desires, and forces, and thus gradually ascend the degrees of attainment.
Question: There are times when I pray a lot, but do not receive an answer. What is the Creator trying to tell me by this?
Answer: He is telling you that you have not yet added your most essential desires to your efforts.

Question: How does annulment help us love our friends?
Answer: Annulment helps us get closer to a friend to the measure that we remove obstacles because the difficulty of annulment is an obstacle in itself. In this way, we draw closer to each other.
Question: What is the root cause of the problem with annulment?
Answer: The cause lies in the Creator who creates certain states between us that we need to eliminate from our interactions.

Question: How will progress take place if everyone in the ten annuls before each other both externally and internally?
Answer: Just as it is happening now. It descends from the Creator, reaches us, and clothes itself in our uncorrected, indirect desires; therefore, we constantly change and fluctuate.
However, if we aim clearly at strengthening our connection through the Creator, we will advance directly, without deviation or confusion.
Question: How do we move toward true nullification in actions and thoughts? How does this happen?
Answer: First comes the intention, and then the action. At the end of the action, we will feel how we realize our intentions.

Question: How should we treat evil revealed, not in the ten, but at work or in the family?
Answer: First, we must reveal the evil in its source, the center. It means that we must sense that it derives from the properties of the benevolent Creator and see how it triggers a different, opposite reaction in us.
The point is whether you feel the exposure of egoism about the connection with the group, with friends. That is the main evil that must be revealed.
Question: Is the evil that I see in material life a manifestation of the evil of my egoism?
Answer: In general, yes, but all this will become clearer later. Everything goes in order. There is no need to rush, but you need to act now. The main thing is to pursue the direction toward connection with friends and the Creator. Stay in these thoughts constantly and evoke a reverse action from the Creator.
Question: In other words, things we reveal in materiality should be left for now, right?
Answer: No, continue asking for correction. If you are already in such a state, then ask.

Question: In the state of a poor person, should there be no fear for oneself?
Answer: The fear in this context does not refer to fear for oneself, but rather fear for correction. Will I be able to correct my state, the state of everyone, the world, and so on? What can I do for the Creator?
A person should not think about themselves. They must rise above this to a state where they give everything to the Creator as if they have everything.

Question: How can one come to true lowliness that leads to sincere prayer?
Answer: This happens when a person reveals that the very qualities, thoughts, and feelings they have regarding any upper goals are the lowest. They are really in the muck. And then they gain tremendous strength to ask the Creator to pull them out of this lowliness.
Question: Do we need to clearly define and recognize our flaws so the Creator can correct them?
Answer: Of course, how else would you ask if you do not feel this way?
Question: Is the degree of awareness of my flaw equal to the degree of the flaw itself?
Answer: This is unknown. Test it.
Question: If there is no awareness, should one believe that they feel the level of the flaw to correct it?
Answer: No, it does not work that way. You must feel it.

Question: Why must a person annul oneself before the Creator in spirituality? Cancelling everything the Creator gives to a person and not thanking Him for it seems wrong in relation to what the Creator has created.
Answer: The point is that people see their flaws, which separate them from the Creator. Therefore, they must first correct these flaws to reduce the distance between themselves and the Creator because, for now, they reveal themselves as being opposite to Him.
Only afterward, when this distance decreases, will they be able to ask the Creator differently and truly thank Him.
