What is the connection between us? To the extent that we have a connection with one another and we safeguard it, then from within this connection we connect with someone from the outside. Moreover, it may be that only one of us connects with someone external, but he does it from within the connection that the entire group created.
To connect from within the connection between the friends means that each friend feels himself this way, presents himself as a representative of the whole group, and connects with someone as the entire group.
Question: What does it mean that I feel myself as the entire group?
Answer: These are already inner sensations. But if there is a connection between the friends in the group, then in each of them, instead of his “I,” there is the notion of “the group,” and the “I” is erased. If the “I” is erased and instead “the group” appears, then with this quality, which is called “the group,” he connects with someone external.

The Creator created the desire to receive pleasure, whose fulfillment is the Creator Himself. And if the desire were to feel the Creator, we would feel good; that is, we would receive pleasure. So what is it that we lack? We lack a true desire. Because the desire created by the Creator is not a true one; that is, the creature does not feel this desire as its own.
So how can a true desire appear within the creature? How can we compel ourselves to seek a desire that did not previously exist within us? This is possible only from the opposite direction. The Creator created the desire and gave it to the creature. And now, from these two components—from the desire and the light—the creature must build a new desire.
It turns out that the creature seemingly “creates,” builds itself from zero, from this world to the world of Infinity. That is why a person is called a creature. But until he gives birth to his new desire, he is not yet called a creature, and this is simply nature: still, vegetative, animate, and human. All of this is nature, created by the expansion from above downward.
And the ascent from below upward is the development of the desire toward the spiritual, toward the Creator, that is, a desire that previously did not exist at all within the creature. This new desire is born only now, from a person’s work of clarification between his point in the heart and his natural, instinctive desire, that is, between the light and the darkness.
The surrounding light helps us clarify the essence of the collision between these two entities within us: light and darkness, the spiritual point in the heart and our egoistic nature. And if we conclude that spirituality is more important than corporeality, and we choose spirituality from between these two, then this is already a desire that did not exist before. It is precisely this that is called a creature.
We need to work only on this new desire. And all the other desires that originally existed within us (still, vegetative, animate, human), that is, desires for pleasures, wealth, power, knowledge, this is simply nature, which does not require correction.
We are not required to earn money for the sake of bestowal to the Creator, to strive for power for His sake, or to study sciences for His sake. One must direct only the desire that is above all these material desires toward the Creator, the desire for spirituality.
The wisdom of Kabbalah does not deal with correcting human character, because this relates to animate qualities. One person is born hot-tempered, another phlegmatic; neither one nor the other needs correction, nor is it possible. What must be corrected is only the attitude toward the Creator, that is, the new desire that is born in the ascent from below upward.
This desire is called true desire. It is not given by the Creator by nature; rather, the creature itself gives birth to it from the collision of thoughts, contradictions, doubts, and its own lack of understanding.
This desire is born through a person’s efforts from three components:
If not for the surrounding light, which we draw through study in a group, we would not be able to clarify this desire and give birth to it each time on ever higher degrees.
We increasingly strive for spirituality, but for ourselves. And only when this egoistic desire for spirituality fills a person’s entire being, that is, when it outweighs all of a person’s natural desires for pleasures, wealth, power, knowledge, and suppresses them so that a person lives by one aspiration alone: for spirituality, for the Creator, which is called “losing sleep,” then he receives correction by the screen: the first corrected desire in his soul.
The main thing is to care for the correct desire. For now, it does not matter whether it is for oneself or for bestowal, only that it does not clothe itself in the garments of this world, but is directed upward. And then we will receive an answer upon it.

Question: How will society be transformed when Kabbalah is used correctly? How will it be expressed internally and externally?
Answer: First of all, all mass media should change their direction in a single decision of the majority of countries. Everything should be aimed at explaining to the masses that only our unity will save the world and restore nature’s positive influence on us.
The mass media is a system that can be rapidly changed for the benefit of the global community, and thus reverse the direction of our development.
We will immediately see positive effects across everything: health, end of terror, weather conditions, society, and more. You will suddenly see that everything calms down, balances out, and becomes peaceful: children’s relationships with their parents, problems with the younger generation, everything instantly calms in each of these manifestations. Enormous egoism, great evil, and resistance to each other suddenly disappear. It is not that angels will walk on earth, no; people are beginning to understand this system, become imbued with it, and feel they can rise above death.
This is what we need to show humanity: “You have the opportunity to rise above death, to achieve a sense of eternity and perfection! This is what is offered to you in addition to life on this earth, which will become truly heavenly, unlike going outside and not knowing if you will return or whether you will have anything to breathe tomorrow.”

Question: Was Ancient Rome, or more precisely, were the Romans Italians?
Answer: No, of course not. Rome was an ancient civilization that gradually dissolved and disappeared. As is usually the case, any civilization that begins to expand outward and conquer everyone else eventually buries itself.
This is a natural process that constantly repeats itself in the development of humanity. Any conquest leads to the conqueror’s gradual downfall.
This is how expansion takes place. By invading other people’s territories, you inevitably have to develop them, because you yourself want to use them. As you develop them, you begin to perceive them as your own. And they, in turn, begin to influence you and little by little to “kill” you. This is the gradual circulation between conquerors and the conquered. But in the end, it is always the conquered who gradually absorb the conqueror.
For example, this is what happened in the USSR, when they tried to create a single Soviet person. It was a good idea. All the plans of the Soviet authorities were correct, except for the method of correction. They did not have the force to apply this method, because for that one must take the upper force, which alone can change our nature. Not by terror, not by hunger, or by any other methods, but precisely by using the upper force. There are many works about this, both by Marx and by Baal HaSulam.
Nevertheless, all of this ultimately leads to the recognition of evil.
Comment: Still, it seems to me that nothing can be achieved in a totalitarian way anymore.
My Response: Now it is already over, we have passed those stages. Today, everything can be corrected only through Kabbalah. I am simply speaking about the past.
The future is very simple. Today, nature is inevitably driving us forward! No one is capable of doing anything about it. Nature will press on us very clearly, and we will be forced to develop, driven by nature, putting out fires, saving ourselves from floods, tsunamis, volcanoes, from heat, and from everything else.

A person must see the friends as parts of his own Kli, which the Creator has gathered for him. He is given the opportunity to carry out this action precisely with those who are next to him, and they truly are the field of his work.
If he connects with them, then each of his friends is like a representative of millions or billions of other people in the world. We do not see this, but when it becomes evident, we will understand that this is indeed the case.
Therefore, we must relate this way to the friends, to the group, to the importance of the gathering of friends. This is exactly what we must demand from ourselves and from the environment we are building.
I must see myself as if I have received everything I have, and I lack nothing. For if I truly realize my connection with the friends according to the rule “love your neighbor,” then I will have a Kli in which, by the law of equivalence of form, the light will immediately appear, and everything will be revealed.
That is, everything depends only on the Kli that I must build. This is the only thing that is placed upon me.

Question: Can you tell us point by point what the development of the next year will be?
Let’s say that first we come to such an understanding, to such training, then we do this, then that, and so on.
Answer: On the one hand, yes, on the other hand, no.
I have a general understanding of what might be, but it means absolutely nothing, because we are at a completely new stage of development, within a movement that has never existed.
There is an external description, but how it manifests itself in us depends on our freewill, on what these movements will be in their external form: more successful or less, slow or fast, in various forms, styles, sensations.
So I can’t say for sure. I know what should happen mathematically, I know the wording, but it can stretch with all the caveats. Like the “+ C” in an integral. And this “+ C” depending on the level of solving the integral can be anything. Everything depends on our freewill, on our decisions and realizations.

Question: How can you give children the right direction if they do not want to listen to you at all?
Answer: It only seems that way to you because there is really nothing you can tell them. How can you convince them? With your tattoos, your gadgets? They have all that too. Only something that is above this world will attract them, and nothing else. Look how many young people are coming to lectures and Kabbalah lessons; look how they are drawn to it.
Comment: But I am talking about small children who grow up in our community. It seems to me that Kabbalah does not interest them at all, and they are just obliged to stay in this environment.
My Response: Go to their classes and see how they think and reason. They just do not fit into your rigid mentality. For them you are a dinosaur, you cannot understand them. And I cannot either.
But we need to understand them. There is no other detector here except if a child of fifteen to seventeen years of age stays here and does not go to any other community. This environment is the most suitable for him.
Have you ever seen sixteen-year-old boys sitting next to their fathers, organizing groups similar to those their fathers are in? This existed a few hundred years ago when we were on a primitive level of development. But now, after the turning point that we went through in the twentieth century, look what is happening.
But the goal is different now. Back then it was just an animal imitation of parents: father is a blacksmith, I will be a blacksmith too; father is a farmer, I will be a farmer, and so on. But now it is different. My father is engaged in spirituality, and I am too because in principle, I cannot find anything else. Would you be able to keep these sixteen-year-old boys next to you if they were not interested? No one could. It is obvious that they come by themselves and sit next to their fathers.
For me, this is clear proof that the example we set for them and the material we give them truly stand above the entire nature of man.
