Adhesion to the Creator is defined as obtaining the property of bestowal. But your desire to receive will never allow you to obtain it. For now, while in this desire, you have to imagine that you want to achieve bestowal. Yet to imagine it and awaken it as something of vital importance can only be done with the means of a group.

I often sense that as I utter a few phrases you lose the thread of the thought and become confused; one moment you grasp it (yes) and the next, it slips away again (no). This is what is called effort!

A person persistently searches with their soul, within their mind and heart, for a way to reconcile these things in order to re-establish what one heard, even for a moment. And again, it disappears. It may take hours or days until you build these phrases again. It is necessary to constantly reconstruct them so they would become clear for you. It means that you are analyzing the Kli.

These things are opposite to the desire to receive; therefore, they are very difficult and require tremendous inner effort, strength, energy, and even additional calories. Only if a group awakens in you the importance of this search is it considered that you are searching for the Creator, for this idea, inside yourself.

Only a group can constantly pressure you, demanding you to begin building a Kli. Without this impetus a person would never find the inner strength to do so, save perhaps through the catalyst of tremendous suffering. It is only when you begin to ask about the purpose of life that you begin to search.

If you proceed in the ordinary manner, it will take you years to move forward. But the group can bind you to this path, push you, influence you, awaken you, and ignite you every single moment. If you fail to perceive this influence from the group as the most important thing in your life, if you do not feel it boiling inside of you with the urgency of life or death, if you do not submit to this “brainwashing,” you will be unable to succeed.
