A group is those people who kind of agree to achieve a goal called adhesion with the Creator. This is a potential agreement. They have not achieved it yet, nor do they even agree with it, but they determine for themselves this is actually the goal.
This is what the authentic sources say, and we feel that it must be so. So let us start building some mechanisms within ourselves, some levels of work, and apply effort to help us get closer to the goal.
Of course, eventually we will find that progress occurs only with the help of the light that corrects, regulates, and connects all parts of Adam HaRishon.
We will determine all our actions according to how much correcting light we can attract to ourselves.
Accordingly, actions will be more or less important, those you need to think about all the time and those you cannot always think about.
Each time there is a different revelation, a different understanding of the means, but always the right realization. It consists of the light checking and correcting the Kelim, while we must attract it through actions that will achieve this in the most beneficial way.

Praise The Group
Rabbi Elazar, the son of Rabbi Shimon, writes that everyone must attain the condition of Arvut (mutual guarantee). We have no possibility of connecting souls into one Kli (vessel) other than through the correction between them, which is called Arvut.
Arvut is merely the realization of unity. It is not some artificial or secondary condition that has other causes. There is only one reason—the merging of souls in such a way that they become similar to the light and merge with it. It is very simple.
How can it be that some soul, some desire from those included in Adam HaRishon, would unite with the rest if not through Arvut, when it gives itself over to all the other souls as an inseparable part that is fused with them?
Of course, in our world this must find expression in such a form that both the nations of the world and Israel will ultimately be included in the law of Arvut.
During the exile, the people of Israel mixed with the nations of the world, and now the notions of “the people of Israel” and “the nations of the world” are such that we do not exactly know who is where. We do not know the tribes of Israel; we do not know how the mixing occurred.
Therefore there are many cases in which, among the so-called nations of the world, here and there we observe such an awakening that does not exist within the people of Israel. If some soul is awakening, this is a sign that it has already reached the possibility of fulfilling its role.
In other words, if someone is capable of taking the obligation to attain such a correction as Arvut upon themselves, they are called “Israel” in relation to all the others who have not yet reached this.
And those souls that have already attained or want to attain this must relate to the rest as to the nations of the world—to correct, to connect, and to care for them.
Such a division no longer corresponds to belonging to any nation; this division is more internal: one who strives toward the Creator is called “Israel” and one who still does not strive is called “nations of the world.”
It is said that the people of Israel were sent into exile only in order to attach the nations of the world to themselves. And we see that there are those in whom the desire for the Creator lives, and the part of Israel in them, as a result of the mixing, is very strong. There is nothing to be done; this is the result of the shattering and the exile, which were predetermined from above.

Is “Female”—Bestowing in Order to Receive—a Klipa?
Bestowing in order to receive is called a “Klipa.” However, first this vessel must exist, and then we identify it as female, and from there we develop the desire to become male. In other words, the female stage is necessary.

In the initially created collective soul, we existed in a wondrous state of connection. But when the shattering occurred between all the desires, each began to care only for itself.
Imagine if the various organs in our body, down to the cells, molecules, atoms, and the tiniest elementary particles, which exist in it in hundreds if not thousands of forms, started to act independently.
This is precisely the state of our world. Naturally it is very difficult to understand how we are meant to be connected in a perfect form from such a fragmented picture.
How can such tiny particles, each confined to its minuscule Kli, grasp with their small, egoistic minds, that a connection of all parts exists: first into molecular systems, then into organs, and finally into a whole organism that must function for a higher purpose? That above this body exists something called the Creator and that adhesion with Him, His revelation, is a completely different and unique form of existence?
It is absolutely impossible for an elementary particle, which each of us essentially is, to understand this.
But this does not exempt us nor remove us from the influence of the law called “the unity of the Creator and creation.” In any case, we are governed from that very same state that existed before our separation, before the connection between us called Arvut (mutual guarantee) disappeared.
From that place, we are in fact operated in order to return to it, but now with our own awareness. From the state we find ourselves in today—scattered and disconnected, with each one feeling only themselves—we are just beginning to hear that we have a duty to merge, to draw closer, to connect by means of some upper force.
Of course, these elementary particles are not capable of doing anything on their own. But they must come to desire that the upper light will reconnect them and give each of them the desire to unite with the rest into a single system. Then, with each act of connection, they will receive a new purpose in life, a need for a higher form of existence.
If, in performing this work, they make efforts and turn to the light for help, then by the same force of light that once sustained them on a higher level, they are returned to their original state.
But what is the difference? The difference is that now, it is as if they give birth to themselves. They reconnect, correct themselves, secure their existence by their own decision, thereby acquiring independence, reason, attainment, and understanding, and return to their previous state of existence already equipped with an understanding of the entire structure of reality.
From having come to know themselves, they also come to know the actions of the light that created and connected them, and thus attain the level of the Creator: “From Your actions, we shall know You.”

Question: Do we lack the development of Aviut to advance?
Answer: We do not worry about Aviut, whether it is revealed or not. We must take care of the connection between us in the conditions given. We receive the level of Aviut with all the heaviness, confusion, and hindrances corresponding to the level, according to its nature. That is how it should be, period! We have nothing to be indignant about and no need to find out why this is the case and not otherwise.
We do not understand this. We have no comprehension in the revelation of the common vessel, even in its smallest part! So what can we say about this?!
We must accept this above knowledge. Of course, we can explore this, but all these scrutinies may divert us from the action itself.
There is only one direction. The levels of the Aviut will be revealed, obstacles will be revealed, all kinds of conditions, internal and external, will be revealed, and we must accept them because each revelation is the revelation of another stage and another, where we will have to make connections, and create a common Kli.
Today, according to what is being revealed, we must unite between those who are ready, openly, by mutual agreement. In the rest of the world that is not ready and does not understand what is going on we must spread this knowledge in every possible way so that it rises upward. That is our task.
