Question: You said that starting from this convention and onward, you see that the center or core of the group will advance from convention to convention. How can one be in this center? What commitments should a person take upon themselves in order to progress? What did you mean?
Answer: I believe that from lesson to lesson, even at this convention, you will receive special assignments, instructions, and recommendations that will create a space between you where you will begin to reveal spiritual qualities, a spiritual field. What we will go through together, we will try to stay connected to this field at all times. Right now, we are not going to determine who enters this space and who does not, as that would be the wrong approach.
This is what I meant. We will be working exclusively on this spiritual field, which we ourselves create between us. From there, we will begin to ascend the spiritual degrees.

Question: You always recommend that we think about unity. How can we help each other realize this condition?
Answer: Imagine that you are connecting with everyone and want to do everything so that your collective unity would reflect the upper light.
Question: At the convention, all the parts that fell from one soul have gathered. How do we now unite these parts? And is there a density of the unification, or can we unite more and more?
Answer: This is not your problem. This is done with the help of the upper light on the degrees of the Creator. So do not stumble over this.
Question: If we have no lack (need), then where is the place for prayer?
Answer: When the light affects you, then the deficiencies felt in the still uncorrected desires will appear.

Question: To reach Lishma, two conditions must be fulfilled. The first is to dissolve into others and become zero.
The second is to find out with what Aviut (the power of desire) I can act in order to pull others along. How can I use my Aviut, and how do I figure out what I can use?
Answer: This can only be discussed after you annul yourself. Then you will be able to raise your Aviut and work with it.
The elevation happens only by adding Aviut. But at the same time, we can lower it to zero, meaning use it for ourselves.
Question: So I can add a bit of vanity, yet not for myself but for everyone?
Answer: You can.

Question: On ordinary days, when a lesson or Zoom begins, my inner egoism, this donkey, constantly resists; it doesn’t want to go to the lesson, it makes me look at my watch, and I tell it: “Shut up, leave me alone!”
But here, at the convention, there is so much love and so much light that this donkey sits silently, and it likes everything. Does this mean that the work has stopped?
Answer: No, the work has not stopped. You simply connect your desire with the desires of your friends, and this huge desire affects your feelings and presses on them. And all this leads to the fact that you will feel yourself together with your friends as one desire in the center of creation.

Question: What could be done now to achieve Lishma?
Answer: For this you need to assemble such a ten that would reveal to you the internal structure of the entire universe, and then you could feel how you are approaching its center.
Question: What efforts must be multiplied in order to enter Lishma?
Answer: Becoming closer in our hearts is the only thing we lack. Each one must examine his own heart, what he really desires, and thus appeal to his friends and strive toward the common goal.

We must feel like we are seeking contact with the Creator so that it is constant, does not disappear, and strengthens more and more. We need to constantly strive to renew it, so that all our friends hold on to this connection and think every minute about how we can cling even more tightly to the Creator and under no circumstances tear ourselves away from Him.
Let us try to do this practically, when everyone wants to sharpen all his or her feelings and everything that is in each one, so that one’s inner striving is directed only toward the Creator, so much so that the person is not interested in anything else besides this.
Whatever we do in the world, in life, at work, or in the family, the most important thing is that every moment of life brings us closer to the Creator. We have to live with this.

All of a person’s work is to choose who governs them: the desire to receive or the desire to bestow. They must examine who currently rules over them and decide what they truly want.
If the desire to receive is in control, it is clear that this is not good, and they must seek ways to bring themselves under the authority of the desire to bestow. But even with the desire to bestow, there remains a question: Why do I bestow, for whom, when, and how?
The governance of bestowal can be established through the force received from the Torah. If we study the Torah with the intention of drawing from it the force of bestowal, then, step by step, we will gradually reveal this force and learn to use it more and more.
We ask the Creator to intervene and help us choose the quality of bestowal. Even before we begin studying, we must be certain that only the Creator alone governs all of existence, and our task is simply to reveal this to everyone.
Every person is born with two forces: the desire to receive and the desire to bestow. We see that the desire to receive dominates all of nature, yet nature also provides examples of bestowal. Even within a person, where egoistic desire reigns, thoughts of bestowal arise. We seek to choose the quality of bestowal because it is the attribute of the Creator. Nature itself teaches that it is worthwhile to belong to the quality of bestowal.
The force that pushes us toward bestowal comes from above, it is the force of the Creator Himself. And we see that although the force of bestowal contradicts our natural desire to receive, it holds the truth. That is why we are drawn to it, and ultimately, it becomes our new nature.
If I want to attain the quality of bestowal, I must enter an environment that has chosen this force and strives to reveal it. In this battle between the force of reception, which I was born with, and the force of bestowal, which I acquire now, I must choose with whom I want to continue.
