Shame Before the Giver

630.2Question: What will help us feel ashamed before the Giver? What actions should we take to feel this?

Answer: You need to constantly elevate yourself. Then you will feel that you are in fact deeply embedded in the desire to receive, and you will experience shame.

Question: Can shame prevent someone from praying? And who am I for the Creator to hear me and pay attention to me?

Answer: Shame should not push a person into a corner where they sit quietly ashamed, hoping no one will see or hear them. This is incorrect.

Question: What should be done if there is practically no shame, only fear?

Answer: In that case, there is nothing for you to do. You have not yet reached the recognition of evil.

My Soul Is in the Ten

530Question: How can I feel that my soul is in the ten?

Answer: If I disconnect from the ten and feel that without it there is no air, that everything that was so important disappears, then my soul is in the ten.

The Connection Called the Temple

936The Temple is the revelation of the Creator that occurs within the prepared desires of a person that  they receive from the Creator.

These desires are capable of accommodating the Creator, and the person feels that the Creator fills them.

Question: How does a person in a state of lowliness and dust even suspect the existence of the Creator and know that they need to pray and build a Temple?

Answer: It is from the things he has already gone through. The Creator does not break off the connection with them. He simply shows the person where they are and at the same time gives them the opportunity to draw closer to Him from below upward.

Question: How can we help each other build the Temple in the ten?

Answer: Connect with each other and turn to the Creator so that He creates a connection between you that will be called the Temple and  fills it with His presence.

Who Brings Contentment to the Creator?

207Question: Can a sinner bring contentment to the Creator?

Answer: No, not at all. By definition, he is a sinner. He is the opposite of the Creator.

Question: But what if he tries to build an intention to bring contentment to the Creator?

Answer: Then he must be righteous. If he begins to perform actions that pertain to righteousness, only then will he bring contentment to the Creator.

The Force of Internal Connection

938.02Comment: When a person is in a low state, he turns to the group. The group can only recommend one thing—hold on to the Creator, but he does not have that connection with the Creator.

My Response: Then the group will direct them to the Creator through itself.

Comment: But the connection with the Creator is given from above.

My Response: No, the group can guide him toward itself and through the group to the Creator. This is where the force of internal connection between them must manifest.

Question: Can powerlessness be transformed into strength of connection with the Creator?

Answer: Yes, it can. It depends on the environment.

The Request Must Be Genuine

558Question: What is revelation of evil? Is it possible to achieve it?

Answer: Yes, of course. It is said that for this purpose you engage in Torah and commandments, meaning you do everything you can: gather, speak, and feel how egoistic you are in relation to each other and to the whole world. Gradually, this leads to the revelation of evil within you.

When it reaches a certain level, you will inevitably want to turn to the Creator for correction. From that moment on, you begin to ascend the ladder of your corrected qualities.

Question: Does correction occur when we reach a specific point, or is it enough to ask?

Answer: It is enough to ask, but you cannot ask yet. The request must be genuine when you feel how egoistic you are and beg the Creator to rid you of your egoism.

Force the Creator to Reveal Himself

938.03Question: We are trying to correct ourselves and want to ascend the spiritual degrees. What does the growth of the degrees depend on and how can we accelerate it?

Answer: It depends only on you.

The more you pray, ask, and strive for connection with your friends and through it for connection with the Creator, the faster you will reach such great desires that the Creator will be forced to reveal to you everything that He has for you.

Maximum Unity

945We have to know that all the souls extend from the soul of Adam HaRishon, for after he sinned in the sin of the Tree of Knowledge, his soul divided into 600,000 souls (Rabash, “What Is the Degree One Should Achieve in Order Not to Have to Reincarnate?”)

The single upper illumination was divided into 600,000 souls. These particles are in all people, in each person.

Question: We increase our small particles with the desire to unite, and each ten creates its own luminous block. We must ignite these sparks in the rest of the world by taking care of dissemination. Kabbalists already see this final part, is this why they have the strength to work without interruption until the end?

Answer: Generally speaking they do not have much strength. As the spiritual world is revealed to a person, he has less and less strength. He needs to make more efforts to unite the spiritual forces within himself and rise to the Creator.

Question: This is very noticeable before a convention. Egoism presses, we don’t want to care about our friends, we want to think less and to unite less. How can each of us imagine the final picture in which we are all united? What should we strive for?

Answer: Toward maximum connection with friends.

Question: Is it possible to awaken sparks of the Creator’s light in each person with our common prayer?

Answer: It is possible. With a common, united prayer, we can achieve complete correction, ascend to the world of infinity, and anything we wish.
