Comment: What kind of game as adults should we have now?

Answer: Playing seriously means playing the Creator.

Comment: Explain what it is.

My Response: It is to make sure the Creator is among us in all our thoughts and actions. This is called playing seriously.

Question: Can we say that before I do anything, I try to appeal to the Creator?

Answer: Yes, and to imagine you are doing this for Him, for His benefit, for His sake. For Him means for the sake of others. Nothing affects the Creator; He needs nothing. There is only one possibility, which is to get the strength from Him to act for the sake of others.

Question: It turns out the formula “I want to be happy” changes to “I want people to be happy so everyone around me is happy?”

Answer: But really happy. Not the way I want them to be happy, but the way the Creator wants them to be happy. Because this is the law of the universe. It is absolute and objective.

Question: How precise everything is! So how does He want people to be happy? What is it for the Creator?

Answer: Try to move into other people’s shoes, transition there, and start feeling what is most important to them. And build it together with them.

Question: When transitioning, what do you think will be the most important thing for people?

Answer: To feel close to each other.

Question: Is this it? Is that the only thing deep inside a person?

Answer: Yes, a person begins to feel perfection in this.

Question: So there is peace, happiness, and security in it?

Answer: It is the completion of everything. Not the end, but completion, pure perfection.

Question: So are all people close? Are all people brothers and sisters?

Answer: Yes, they generally disappear in the form they are in now. They simply enter the realm of perfection.

Question: So if now I want to use another for my benefit, there I would want to give myself completely to someone else?

Answer: Yes, this is what giving ourselves to each other is all about. It is called Hashpaa in Kabbalah, bestowal. This is the state of perfection; the spiritual state.

Comment: We are engaged in a great science after all.

My Response: It is yet to be revealed! It will be further developed and broken down into feelings.

Question: Where does the additional awakening of the light that created all creation come from in the creations?

Answer: The fact is that the creation feels the need to strive for the properties of the light. Therefore, it develops this system from within itself and begins to strive for the light from Malchut to Keter.

Question: Where does the beginning of this aspiration come from?

Answer: Initially there is no light of Hochma in creation, there is no sensation of the Creator, therefore it desires to master it.

Question: How is the Partzuf of Adam HaRishon, a part of the upper spiritual worlds studied in The Study of the Ten Sefirot, related to the first man (Adam HaRishon) who revealed the Creator, who was also called Adam?

Answer: Adam, the first one to reveal the Creator, was a man like us. He was born from his father and mother, lived in this world, and one day reached a state where he began to reveal the upper force, the Creator.

Such a desire suddenly awakened in him, and he began to think: “What am I living for, where did I come from, why, and who controls me?” This is like each of us. This is how he revealed the spiritual world.

He was distinguished by the fact that he had a very sensitive soul, which was not as coarse as with a developed egoism like ours. Therefore, it was easier for him to make this revelation himself. It was the very first spiritual gene (Reshimo) to be revealed in this whole system of broken souls, at the beginning of its ascent from the bottom up; this was Adam, the first person to reveal the Creator.

The Partzuf of Adam HaRishon is a spiritual object created from above, by Zeir Anpin (ZA) and Nukva of the world of Atzilut, when the worlds spread from top to bottom. ZA and Nukva raise him to their level, and then even to the level of Aba ve Ima, where he couples (Zivug) his two parts, male and female: Adam and Eve (Hava), thinking he can already be like Aba ve Ima and act in everything for the sake of bestowal.

But when he makes this coupling, he reveals he is not capable of it for the sake of bestowal, and shatters. This is the Partzuf of Adam HaRishon, the common soul, which is studied in the science of Kabbalah.

Its parts fall after shattering, going lower and lower until they reach the very “bottom,” and from there they begin their scrutinies and clarifications. First, there are numerous clarifications on the inanimate, vegetative, and animate levels, which do not have any freewill, and only the light acts, clarifying them and connecting them, not requiring any request from them.

But after these clarifications accumulate and the queue reaches the desires of the next level, the informational gene of the human level from all the broken Reshimot is revealed for the first time. This new Reshimo, revealed for the first time on the human speaking degree, was called “Adam,” and belonged to a man of our world who lived 5,771 years ago.

He was the first person to attain the Creator “from the bottom up,” that is, from our world. He was just like us, only the first one to reveal such a Reshimo.

He did not have a Kabbalistic group or an environment because he was the first. But correction begins with the lightest Reshimo so it was enough to give him a spiritual awakening from above, and then he himself sought revelation and achieved it. The Reshimot that are revealed after him get rougher and rougher.

We celebrate this day, the first revelation of the spiritual world, the Creator, by a man of our world, as the beginning of the New Year, Rosh HaShanah.

And the world was created “five days before that”; that is, Adam has already begun to somehow feel the upper worlds, the Sefirot, the Partzufim inside him, and during this first week, revelation came to him.

Question: God spoiled everything; He created evil, egoism, and we will correct everything and come to altruistic consciousness?

Answer: That is absolutely right. As it is said: “I created evil and gave the instruction for its correction.” The upper force created nothing but evil. And we must correct it.

But this does not mean that we should turn poverty into wealth or illness into health. Correction consists of bringing people to the attainment of the meaning of life, that is, to connection with the Creator. From there, they will receive what will fulfill them, heal them, and elevate them to the highest level.

Question: When studying Kabbalah is it better to agree with you or to resist and find out?

Answer: To resist and find out, of course! That is what I want from my students! This is called a Kabbalah teacher.

Question: And faith above reason, where should I be annulled?

Answer: Faith is above reason, that is your work if you are able to carry it out. But at the same time, you are not destroying knowledge, you are not destroying your egoism. You rise above it. It is like a pillow for you on which you build faith, the quality of bestowal above your egoism. Egoism gives you the possibility to build faith.

If egoism disappears, then the quality of bestowal will disappear, since it is built on the opposite of egoism, which works as a counterforce. Therefore, there is absolutely no subordination here!

I know from my own experience how difficult it was for me with my teacher. The more you move forward, the more you begin to hate him. You always feel insignificance in him, emptiness, you cannot agree with him!

I know all this, and that is why I see right through my students. This does not concern me and in no way dictates my attitude toward them. By no means! Not at all! I understand their hatred toward me, because I am presenting them with a method that is against their nature. How can they love me?!

Question: Then why are they with you nonetheless?

Answer: Because they have nowhere to go. That is it!

Question: The second and the fourth stages of the spreading of the light are stages in action. And the third stage, as it is said in TES (The Study of the Ten Sefirot), is a kind of sample that a person receives from the Creator. What does it mean to receive a sample of bestowal?

Answer: It means to learn from the first stage how it transforms into the second, into the third, into the fourth stages, and in what way from the fourth stage we can connect with all the other stages and abide within them.

Question: It is said that the waters conceived and gave birth to darkness. How does the light of Hassadim give birth to darkness?

Answer: If we do not have the light of Hassadim, then we feel the darkness and do everything to attract the upper light to ourselves.

And how it comes to us depends on the state of the Kli. It is quite possible that the Kelim need the light of Hochma. Hochma cannot shine without the light of Hassadim.

Question: In TES (The Study of the Ten Sefirot) it is said that the fourth stage of the development of desire is the stage of action at the completion of the Kli of reception. What action is meant here?

Answer: It is about the action of light on the primary desire, which develops until the entire nature of light and the entire nature of desire of the Kli develop to such a degree that they are connected with each other and complement each other.

Question: Is there any example of this state?

Answer: No, there is no example yet. We are still unable to distinguish one desire from another and to speak of examples. But soon this will happen. Therefore, we must constantly strive toward the final state.
