Question: How does the addition of Aviut, which is necessary for further advancement, relate to restriction, to the state of Katnut, which is when I don’t want the great lights, but want to serve the small ones?
Answer: When we rise and desire to make a restriction in order to ascend to a higher degree, the light that acts at this upper level also restricts us. So there is no contradiction between rising to a higher light and its restriction.
Question: So it’s not my actions, not my decisions, but the influence of the light on my readiness?
Answer: Yes, you only decide: yes or no.

Question: We are creating a common heart with our efforts. But without the Creator’s force, it is just a heart. How can we invite the Creator into it and ask Him to sustain it?
Answer: Indeed, it depends entirely on the Creator. And the Creator’s response depends solely on our desire and our request. Our request, in turn, depends on how consistently we remain in it.
So it all comes down to us, our desire, our plea, our prayer, that determines how much we can form a common vessel (Kli) where everyone feels as if they are inside their own heart, filled with the desires and actions of all.
Today, I have already observed several friends, both men and women, who have changed significantly during this time. You will see how, over these two days, we will go deeper into our hearts, into our thoughts, and reach the level of faith above reason.

Question: What is the role of a sage in relation to the creatures in our world?
Answer: By sage we mean a person who reaches the level of the Creator in his attainment.
A sage is obliged to teach the creatures, to help them rise above themselves, and to unite with each other. He sees this as his mission.
Question: So we can use the work that the sage did before us?
Answer: Of course, this is what we study. All our lessons are dedicated solely to this.
Question: How do I check myself whether I believe in the sages or not? What if I trust myself?
Answer: If you read the primary sources and completely agree with what is written in them, it means that you believe, not yourself, but the one who wrote them.

Question: How can we translate the width of the Kli we created at the congress into depth?
Answer: I do not think you can make such actions yet. But you will be able to very soon.
In the meantime, it is important to try to reproduce the sensitivity you experienced at the congress. You should lift this out of your heart as often as possible because if there is a suitable time and you do not use it to revive the states you have experienced, you are robbing yourself.
Question: You said that faith in the sages expands the Kli and makes it more subtle. What is a more subtle Kli?
Answer: It is a stronger Kli that is capable of absorbing all the sensations and changes in the ten and raising it to the level it was at the congress.
In order for you to have a more subtle Kli, each member of your ten must try to always be ahead of everyone or at least care about its sensations.
Question: What is the relationship in the work of a subtle Kli to the thickness of the revealed Aviut?
Answer: There is an infinitely large distance between them.

Question: How can we not miss the opportunity the Creator gives us at this special congress? How can we appreciate every moment?
Answer: You should think of appreciating every moment in advance: “Now I am going to a meeting with my friends where we will connect our hearts. Will I be able to find my place in this union of hearts?”
This will not be a selfish desire. This is a desire that will advance everyone. This is how we will act.

Question: How can we not miss the moment when you feel the fear of receiving for yourself, and that this fear would not be overwhelming, but motivating, and would not lead us astray.
Answer: Those who study Kabbalah correctly, feel the fear of receiving for oneself, and within this fear they reveal spiritual ascent and attain the Creator.
Question: What spiritual qualities must a person develop in order to be worthy of uniting with the Creator?
Answer: Nothing will help a person except the correct study of Kabbalah.
