Question: What should we feel ashamed of before the Creator?

Answer: That He expects one thing from you, but you bring Him another.

Question: How can we feel exactly what He needs?

Answer: Kabbalists write that the Creator desires nothing but for us to love one another. Try to love each other in a way that allows you to feel the state of the Creator.

Currently, He is concealed from you because He does not want to upset you, He does not want to show you how dissatisfied He is with you. But you should behave in a way that your actions could bring Him contentment. Then He will not need to conceal Himself from you, and you will not need to conceal yourself from Him.

Every moment when I am in the ten, I feel how our connection is strengthening more and more in one form or another. I feel I am moving toward a state where we all will be in the same heart.

And the closer I get to this one heart, the more joyful I feel. I feel the Creator and the whole global soul above our world. That is the feeling we must try to achieve as soon as possible.

We are in constant motion, from the current point to the next, until the end of correction. Kabbalists promise us that we will achieve it.

Therefore, you need to be happy that you are on the path and have a goal in life that is above everything that lifts you to the top of the universe. The state of final correction is prepared for us and awaits us.

We should realize yet how lucky we are. But in fact, everyone has a record in the soul that distinguishes them from millions and billions of people who do not have this in their lives. They will start and end this life without achieving anything. And we, during this life, climb the spiritual ladder from degree to degree.

Therefore, we need to be joyful on this holiday of Purim, which symbolizes all our ascents. I am thrilled that more and more people are joining us daily, and the understanding is growing that we have a lucky ticket.

Question: In the war against egoism, there are situations where my strength is taken from me. I give more strength, but even more is taken from me. Where can I find strength?

Answer: Indeed, you are lying there and cannot do anything. Only friends can come to your aid, lift you up, and revive you.

They can feel you because you interact with them in some form. This means they are connected to you by receiving some signals from the Creator through you.

Question: You said that the importance of loving one’s friends can be divided into 620 steps. What kind of gradation is this?

Answer: From zero to complete love we have 620 positive steps, and from hatred to zero, we respectively have 620 negative steps.

So in our correction, we must go through the entire spiritual ladder.

Question: Sometimes you seem to love your friend and think about him. How can we increase the sensitivity and resolution of this love?

Answer: The Creator does this. He raises us to the stage of unity and love, and He makes changes in us.

The unification we want to achieve is a unique state in which a person feels that he is canceling himself to zero, dissolving into his friends, and disappearing in them.

As he loses himself, he feels that he is leaving the material world and entering the spiritual world, and receives a new desire and a new sensation there that is already all spiritual.

He feels that at the center of all this sensation a higher force, the Creator, is waiting and desires him.

You will thoroughly keep the Achoraim [posterior, back] for Me, for My name, then the abundance will do her thing and fill the letters. The qualities will become Sefirot, since before the filling they are called “qualities,” and upon their fulfillment for the best, they are called Sefirot, sapphire, illuminating the world from one end to the other (Baal HaSulam. Letter 14).

Achoraim are receiving vessels. If we use them for the sake of the Creator, if we want to bestow with their help, then the filling that comes through the receiving Kelim lifts us to the Panim (vessels of bestowal).

And so we begin to see what secrets, what lights, are in letters and words.

Question: When I feel the fear of death, I close my eyes and pray. What else can I add?

Answer: By overcoming the fear of death a little, you can choose the way to deal with it and get out of it to a state of spiritual ascent. This is what Nahshon demonstrated to everyone.

Nahshon realized that only by setting an example to all the people would he be able to force them to throw themselves into the sea and cross it.

Question: If we, like Nahshon, depend on the people, then maybe the nation has not yet reached the state of “it is better to die than to live like this.” Can it wait?

Answer: You do not have to wait, you have to try to get closer to it.

When we unite our souls, everyone gets strength from everyone. And this helps us all to get out of the Final Sea, i.e., from the completion (Sof, the end) to come to the beginning (Rosh).
