Adhere to the Group’s Opinion

942Question: What causes failure when we try to awaken a spiritual idea?

Answer: Failures occur because we cannot awaken the group by simply shouting about it because our cry instantly dissipates. Instead it requires the work of each individual making a demand of everyone else. Each person should catch themselves: if they disagree that the greatness of the Creator should be the main thing in the group, they should pull out this point of disagreement and stick to the group’s opinion without hesitation.

This is called going by faith above reason. This will not be considered fanaticism, because with each step a person reveals a greater degree of reason. And each time, one is compelled to subject the matter to a rational analysis. Nothing can be done.

The group’s opinion is that the goal of adhesion with the Creator is the only thing we have, and there is nothing else in our lives besides it.

This should be the general attitude. For example, as it happens during Passover, there is a general excitement. It may not be very clear to us that it relates to the greatness of the Creator; the goal is not entirely clear, but there is a sense of upliftment. Everyone seems to be floating slightly above the ground.

The same atmosphere should prevail in the group, and you should not let yourselves fall. This must determine how and what I do in my life.
