Question: Does the dialogue between a person and his desire to receive happen when he is in Lo Lishma or in Lishma?

Answer: A person is not yet in Lishma. The dialogue between him and his desire to receive happens before that. It is the degree that allows him to rise to Lishma.

Question: So I must receive this strength from the Creator in order to ascend? Since the strength of faith in the sages comes only from the Creator?

Answer: Yes, of course.

Question: In that case, should I turn in prayer to the Creator so that I have this strength to rise and perform an act of bestowal?

Answer: That depends on the person, how he positions himself in relation to the Creator, desiring to be in adhesion with Him in all states: in descents, ascents. Yesterday, today, tomorrow, he wants to simply be connected with the Creator.

If he strives toward this state, then he begins to see how he can be connected with the Creator.
