Question: How can we perceive the convention as a positive blow, so that we can accept the Creator’s control for life, and not just for the duration of the convention?
Answer: It all depends on our attitude to it. On the eve of the convention, I must feel myself standing before the most important task in my life, and now my fate is being decided, when I can rise to the upper degree of the spiritual ladder, or I can remain as I am now, or even fall somewhere. This is before us today. Choose!
Question: How exactly can we concentrate, not spread out, and be sure that we can consolidate and prepare ourselves?
Answer: If you begin to gather together as if in a spiritual space, then you will feel a huge common Kli where you are close and understand each other, and the Creator reacts to this in a very serious way.
Question: You said that a person cannot advance without blows, but one can prepare himself so as not to feel the states he goes through as blows. Now, on the eve of the convention, are we not expecting blows?
Answer: No, you must be prepared for blows in order to move forward. The only difference is how you expect it, and in accordance with your desire you will feel it as support, a push forward. But if it is against your desire, then you will feel it as an obstacle.
Question: What can that blow give us at the convention that will allow us to accept something new for ourselves as the control of the Creator?
Answer: If we feel ourselves connected together into one whole, then our common desire will push us out of egoism, and we will rise to the next degree.

Question: How long is the path from the realization of true evil to a genuine prayer? How can this path be shortened?
Answer: It is only by uniting between you in the group and studying the articles of Baal HaSulam and Rabash. The more you study, the more you understand that it is only through the study of the Torah that you can see how deeply egoism is rooted in you and how you must extract and correct it.
Question: How can we increase our spiritual vessel (Kli) in the group?
Answer: It is by drawing closer to each other. Only through this.
Turn to the Creator more often, ask Him for correction, but do so precisely when you notice that you are in need of correction and don’t just cry out for the sake of it.

Question: What will help us feel ashamed before the Giver? What actions should we take to feel this?
Answer: You need to constantly elevate yourself. Then you will feel that you are in fact deeply embedded in the desire to receive, and you will experience shame.
Question: Can shame prevent someone from praying? And who am I for the Creator to hear me and pay attention to me?
Answer: Shame should not push a person into a corner where they sit quietly ashamed, hoping no one will see or hear them. This is incorrect.
Question: What should be done if there is practically no shame, only fear?
Answer: In that case, there is nothing for you to do. You have not yet reached the recognition of evil.

Question: How can I feel that my soul is in the ten?

The Temple is the revelation of the Creator that occurs within the prepared desires of a person that they receive from the Creator.
These desires are capable of accommodating the Creator, and the person feels that the Creator fills them.
Question: How does a person in a state of lowliness and dust even suspect the existence of the Creator and know that they need to pray and build a Temple?
Answer: It is from the things he has already gone through. The Creator does not break off the connection with them. He simply shows the person where they are and at the same time gives them the opportunity to draw closer to Him from below upward.
Question: How can we help each other build the Temple in the ten?
Answer: Connect with each other and turn to the Creator so that He creates a connection between you that will be called the Temple and fills it with His presence.

Question: Can a sinner bring contentment to the Creator?
Answer: No, not at all. By definition, he is a sinner. He is the opposite of the Creator.
Question: But what if he tries to build an intention to bring contentment to the Creator?
Answer: Then he must be righteous. If he begins to perform actions that pertain to righteousness, only then will he bring contentment to the Creator.

Comment: When a person is in a low state, he turns to the group. The group can only recommend one thing—hold on to the Creator, but he does not have that connection with the Creator.
My Response: Then the group will direct them to the Creator through itself.
Comment: But the connection with the Creator is given from above.
My Response: No, the group can guide him toward itself and through the group to the Creator. This is where the force of internal connection between them must manifest.
Question: Can powerlessness be transformed into strength of connection with the Creator?
Answer: Yes, it can. It depends on the environment.

Question: What is revelation of evil? Is it possible to achieve it?
Answer: Yes, of course. It is said that for this purpose you engage in Torah and commandments, meaning you do everything you can: gather, speak, and feel how egoistic you are in relation to each other and to the whole world. Gradually, this leads to the revelation of evil within you.
When it reaches a certain level, you will inevitably want to turn to the Creator for correction. From that moment on, you begin to ascend the ladder of your corrected qualities.
Question: Does correction occur when we reach a specific point, or is it enough to ask?
Answer: It is enough to ask, but you cannot ask yet. The request must be genuine when you feel how egoistic you are and beg the Creator to rid you of your egoism.

Question: We are trying to correct ourselves and want to ascend the spiritual degrees. What does the growth of the degrees depend on and how can we accelerate it?
Answer: It depends only on you.
The more you pray, ask, and strive for connection with your friends and through it for connection with the Creator, the faster you will reach such great desires that the Creator will be forced to reveal to you everything that He has for you.
