Question: If during our daily activities we do not feel, think, or believe that sparks of holiness are rising somewhere, does this mean that we are not raising them? Or are we raising them, but it is hidden from us?
Answer: This is hidden from you. Any action that you perform in connection with the group is spiritual. You still, with your actions, evoke in the upper Partzuf a desire to connect you to it and conduct the upper light through you, through it, and further to Malchut of the world of Assiya.
Question: For example, after class, we compose a prayer, then during the day, we gather for calls and so on. Is it useful to add thoughts about how we raise sparks to Atzilut to these actions, and to think and talk about it? Does this increase sensitivity to sparks of holiness?
Answer: Yes, it increases sensitivity. But on the other hand, it brings additional properties with it that you have not yet mastered; that is, you are not yet at these levels.
So little by little, one more lesson, two more lessons, we will still gradually enter into this together. Let’s say that today it is considered that our lesson is at the level of Malchut of the worlds of BYA. And tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, we may already be one level higher and go further.

Question: What does it mean that we raise sparks of holiness for correction in Atzilut?
Answer: We do not yet feel this, but we hope that through our mutual effort, together we will feel that we are already connected to the degree of the world of Atzilut, and that all our desires, sufferings, and requests are directed from that degree to the Creator.
It is precisely from that degree that we hope to receive support from Him in the form of the upper light, which in turn will raise us into the world of Atzilut.

Question: How can we sort our desires and intentions to be directed toward the Malchut of the world of Atzilut in all the states that come from the Creator? How do we make the choice, and what kind of choice is it?
Answer: The choice is very simple: the whole ten should unite.
When you connect with each other based on your common desire, common intention, common goal—everything you have—as one man with one heart,” then you begin to ask for it.

Question: How can we manage stress?
Answer: We need to understand that the convergence of plus and minus at all levels in all circumstances is necessary and should take place, and we need to learn how to do this.
Question: How do we do this?
Answer: It is very simple. Build love over all manifestations of hatred. It is the same principle. There must be hatred, rejection, anything negative, and above it, undoubtedly, plus.
Question: How can you attract this plus to yourself?
Answer: This is what the science of Kabbalah teaches—how to get a plus from a minus in order to let a minus and a plus remain, for them to exist complementing each other. In Kabbalah, this is explained as the correlation of darkness and light.
Question: But how can I attract love? I do hate, and my hate strongly.
Answer: This must be achieved through education; when a person realizes there is no plus without a minus or a minus without a plus, and their correct combination creates life.
When a person realizes this, he becomes calm, reasonable, follows the middle line, and builds himself and the world.
Question: Let us say I hate. What are my actions?
Answer: You should realize that everything comes from the upper force and is given to us to balance all negative qualities, properties, and circumstances with positive ones. All this can happen only in our consciousness. When we realize this, we begin to treat everything with kindness, not denying anything, but accepting everything as an absolute necessity.
Question: Is this hatred necessary?
Answer: It is necessary for us to rise above it, and to exist above it and in it. Then we will balance these two forces of creation—plus and minus.
Comment: That is the whole difficulty: above it, somehow, somewhere it may be possible, perhaps…
My Response: No, it will only be possible egoistically, but in order to exist with it, we must rise above it and balance out all negative properties by adhering to the Creator.
Question: It is not easy. Can you give me a simple formula for overcoming hatred?
Answer: The formula is that a minus equals a plus. That is all. Where there is a minus, you should see a plus.
Question: Is what I hate now a minus?
Answer: It is a minus until you realize that it is also a plus.
Question: So is it good that I hate?
Answer: Yes, but why are you given this? So that you can turn it into a plus. You have to change your attitude to the world. But how? It is very simple. Replace egoism with altruism, hatred with love. And everything will be fine.
Question: So I hate this person, but I say to myself: “This is given to me so I can love him?”
Answer: You are simply given the opposite properties. Replace them with the opposite ones and you will get a wonderful world.
Question: Is it within my power?
Answer: It is not in your power to transform, to accomplish, but it is in your power to beg the Creator to make it so. That is, to reach a state where you really crave it.
Question: Is that why hatred comes? So that I can plead that I passionately want to replace it with love?
Answer: Yes. Then you will realize this was not the reason at all, but so that you establish contact with the Creator. That is all.
Question: I see. It is He who calls us to turn to Him.
Answer: Otherwise, we would not have turned in His direction.

Question: How can we prepare for the revelation of the shattering?
Answer: To the extent that we are connected with one another, we can delve into the study of the shattering between us and into its sensation. In this way, we can shorten our path to correction, meaning we can draw the shattering closer to us in order to correct it.
Question: The more we exert ourselves in the work, the more the world reveals its evil. How can we justify the Creator, that the world was originally corrected?
Answer: We still have to reveal that the world is initially corrected. Only then will we be able to reach the correct prayer—for closeness between us and with the Creator.
Question: In the ten, we feel unity among us, but between all the tens there is no sensation of merging into one Kli. How should we work with this shattering?
Answer: We need to work on this. To work means to connect despite the egoism that exists within each ten.

Question: Let’s say a person understands perfectly well that some medicine will help him, and he takes it. But at some point, he stops and says: “That is it, I do not want it anymore.” Like for example, drug addicts who know that they should be cured, and that they should endure certain suffering in order to get rid of drug addiction, but they cannot stop.
Answer: This is also a sign of insufficient suffering. At the end of this suffering, a new, lower level gradually unfolds in us where we are no longer able to use false pleasure.
Over time, withdrawal from drugs will come. People will not be able to use them because they will reach the final development of consciousness.
“I can no longer smoke, inject, or sniff. I cannot!”
“Why?”
“Because it is a lie!”
That is, just the understanding that it is a lie neutralizes the feeling of pleasure in them.
This is a natural, dialectical development of our multilayered desire, which consists of its root (zero) level and then the first, second, third, and fourth phases. When we reach the fourth phase of desire—that is it, the end! We can no longer use it.
We realize that it is opposite to some source, something we cannot violate, and that is it. We cannot use that desire anymore. We must rise above it.
