Question: The congress is approaching. This is my first experience, my first congress. Please tell me an effective, practical way to cancel my ego, my “I,”  at the congress?

Answer: Indeed, there is nothing more important. I would say that this is the only thing we need since the congress represents the power of unification of thousands and thousands of people around the world.

And everyone who flies, arrives, comes, or crawls to the congress must prepare to enter it. A person must know in advance that he or she is taking part in the congress with the purpose of canceling oneself, can not removing one’s ego as if it does not exist. This cannot be achieved; it is a lie. It is our nature, and the more we go forward, the more our egoism will develop in us.

We need to know how to rise above the ego, and at the same time begin to feel the opposite property in ourselves. That is, I am an egoist, I want this, I would like that. We need to reduce the action of egoism, its implementation, but in no case should we think that we should annihilate or destroy it.

On the contrary, it comes from the Creator. Egoism is a higher power. It is the only thing that we have. We cannot refuse it, because then we would refuse our nature. We need to create another layer over egoism, like a sandwich, which would turn it into its opposite property, altruism, into a connection between us.
Moreover, we are creating this connection only between world Bnei Baruch members, and not in relation to other people in the world. We are not ready for this yet.

Therefore, let us tune in and stop thinking about our egoism, it does not interest us now. Everyone is interested in how one receives such an impact from thousands of people to feel that one rises above one’s ego and consists of two layers: egoism and altruism, the property of receiving and the property of giving.

This is exactly how we need to prepare for the congress. And at the congress you will feel the force that exists between everyone. How to use it depends on your preparedness.
