Question: How can we perceive the convention as a positive blow, so that we can accept the Creator’s control for life, and not just for the duration of the convention?

Answer: It all depends on our attitude to it. On the eve of the convention, I must feel myself standing before the most important task in my life, and now my fate is being decided, when I can rise to the upper degree of the spiritual ladder, or I can remain as I am now, or even fall somewhere. This is before us today. Choose!

Question: How exactly can we concentrate, not spread out, and be sure that we can consolidate and prepare ourselves?

Answer: If you begin to gather together as if in a spiritual space, then you will feel a huge common Kli where you are close and understand each other, and the Creator reacts to this in a very serious way.

Question: You said that a person cannot advance without blows, but one can prepare himself so as not to feel the states he goes through as blows. Now, on the eve of the convention, are we not expecting blows?

Answer: No, you must be prepared for blows in order to move forward. The only difference is how you expect it, and in accordance with your desire you will feel it as support, a push forward. But if it is against your desire, then you will feel it as an obstacle.

Question: What can that blow give us at the convention that will allow us to accept something new for ourselves as the control of the Creator?

Answer: If we feel ourselves connected together into one whole, then our common desire will push us out of egoism, and we will rise to the next degree.
