The connection of speaking to the Creator brings him life, if he appreciates the fact that he is conversing with the Creator (Rabash, Article 3, “What It Means that the Name of the Creator Is ‘Truth’”).
Question: What should we add to elevate the value of and strengthen connection with the Creator?
Answer: Think only about the fact that when you unite, your connection with the Creator becomes stronger, more profound, and you need nothing else.
When each person in the group expresses themselves in relation to it, when you can all unite and focus your desire on the Creator, you thereby form the vessel (Kli) in which you will receive His response.

Question: You said that my role in the group is to help my friends reveal the Creator. What should I do to dissolve into my friends?
Answer: On one hand, I dissolve into my friends, and on the other hand, I am as if above them, trying to determine their movement, their fate.
Question: Which is preferable?
Answer: There is no preference here, because there is a time for both. There is a time to scatter stones and time to gather stones.
These are two sides, right and left, that must always be present in our work. We should not neglect either. There cannot be a plus without a minus. This is how we should act.

Question: Can I evaluate my progress relative to the state of the group?
Answer: If you study The Book of Zohar (especially this book) even though it doesn’t tell you anything and seems so incomprehensible, distant and even repugnant to your entire being, you don’t understand it at all, and its characters and actions seem absurd, yet, despite all this, you accept it as a necessary tool for connecting with the source of the upper force that can change you, and you use it.
It’s like a child who doesn’t know or understand but is compelled by nature to nullify themselves in relation to adults, to learn from them, and to mimic them like a little monkey without understanding what they are doing simply because that is what adults do. Similarly, we, by naively following the guidance of Kabbalistic texts and recognizing that they contain the source of some transformative force, suddenly begin to feel that they are working on us.
Initially, we are given a certain desire for this, a realization that there is no other way, and a group that can push us in this direction. But in the end, what is required is patience.
This involves studying the material, participating in dissemination efforts, and working within the group over months and months. Then suddenly you begin to feel that something is happening to you, something is working. You change. You suddenly feel a deeper understanding of what is going on interspersed with periods of greater confusion. This is the path.
It is a period of serious formation, a transition from one world to another. It is not simple and takes a significant amount of time. But this is the essence of our entire history, all those millions of years of development that are now approaching their critical, culminating point of realization when we transition into another state, another dimension.
All of this is about to happen to us, to those who seriously work on themselves, who wish to adopt this spiritual framework represented by The Book of Zohar, and pass through it into the other dimension.

Question: We are talking about our state for tomorrow. Where does this depiction come from? Does the Creator give us some light or does my ego fantasize this?
Answer: When we imagine our future, we say that we desire it. Where do the knowledge, sensation, and necessity for this future state appear in us? Where does this ultimately come from?
We study that originally, we existed in a good state when we were united and the Creator manifested within us. The only thing He manifested was in the small state (Katnut). This is the state of the system Adam that was created by the Creator before its breaking. Then the upper light, meaning the entire influence of the Creator, focused on this system and destroyed it.
What does “destroyed” mean? It became connected between all parts of the system as pure egoism that separates all the parts so that a feeling appears that is the opposite of the Creator. It is similar to what we do with our kids when we want to teach them to be more independent, to feel life better, and begin to understand it. We gradually distance them from us and they do the same according to their nature.
Thus the Creator entered into us and filled the distance between us with the property opposite to Him, the property of receiving, not bestowal. Now we have to turn this property into His property, but by our request.
Therefore, each time we want to be closer to one another we will sense that we hate one another even more and repel one another. This sensation will only get stronger.
On the other hand we will be asking to unite because in unity between the broken parts we include ourselves in each other and the Creator together into one system. Then instead of tearing us apart, the Creator will connect us.
In the state of the breaking, He is called “Pharaoh,” but in the state of unity “Creator,” “Upper Force.” This is how it works.

Question: How can you not make mistakes and know you are addressing the Creator? Is there some kind of verification?
Answer: No, address Him however you wish, make any mistakes; the main thing is to be in touch with Him all the time.
Do whatever you want, just don’t break the connection with Him. The most important thing is to maintain uninterrupted dialogue all the time.

Question: You said that from our collective feeling we become worthy of the Creator’s response to our request. At what point will this happen?
Answer: We become worthy of the Creator’s response the moment our desires and requests to receive and to bestow align with the Creator’s will toward us. Then we become interconnected.
I receive from the Creator what He sends to me, or I send to the Creator and He receives it. A two-way connection is formed between us. Many Kabbalistic sources speak about this. So we will quickly understand how this connection is established and experienced.

Question: How can one speak with the Creator so that this conversation becomes constant like communication between people?
Answer: That depends on you. The Creator is always open. He has no schedule divided into morning or evening, night or day. He is always open and in an active state.
The more often you engage in exercises aimed at uniting with one another and within that unity direct yourselves toward the Creator with a desire to feel His state and how He perceives you, the faster you will establish a close and direct connection with Him.

What Is the First Action Required of a Person?
We cannot be compelled to act because every action must be voluntary and arise from internal effort. This effort, or required action, is born out of our innate nature and the extent of light received from above.
This does not mean the vessel suddenly desires change of its own accord. Instead, the vessel possesses Aviut (“thickness” or “coarseness”) and Reshimo (“record” or “spiritual data”), which guide its direction and choices, seemingly working in harmony with the light to bring about change.
However, in truth, we cannot dictate what we will want to do. Every moment is preordained. The only choice granted is to engage in learning. Through study in a supportive environment, we absorb additional desires from the group—desires that are not originally ours.
