Question: The greatness of the Creator has immeasurably huge dimension and power. If we imagine it, we can just crush ourselves. How can we come into contact with His greatness in the correct way?
Answer: If we are moving toward the Creator together, and He has set us such a condition that we can approach Him only together, then we should not be afraid, nothing will crush us. We will be able to receive His attitude toward us into the ten Sefirot and understand that He treats us correctly.

A person should feel how all times: past, present, and future are included in the present moment, which means that I should think what I am aiming for at this moment and how to attach all the reasons to the action that I am about to perform now.
I connect the past and the future with the present time and from this I find the most correct action for my advancement.
It all depends on my intention because now I want to perform an action in which all times, all actions, and opportunities will come together in one effort to connect.

To save the created beings from this titanic separation, the first restriction took place, separating phase four from the rest of the Partzufim [plural of Partzuf] of Kedusha [Holiness] so that that great measure of reception remained an empty space devoid of any light (Baal HaSulam, Preface to the Wisdom of Kabbalah, item 14).
The fact is that when the Creator created desire, He filled it with light, with the help of which He gave the desire the opportunity to develop. Then He made the light disappear from the desire, and it remained empty.
This limitation of the desire from feeling the light is called restriction (Tzimtzum). The light has reduced itself, withdrawn from the desire it created, and is, as it were, outside of it.
Then the Creator makes the light enter the desire in accordance with the action of the desire itself: “Ask me, and I will enter you. Ask me and I will fill you. Ask me, and I will come closer to you, I will shine upon you. Then you and I will become partners.” This is what the light wants from the created desire.
Here, a certain system of interaction and interrelationship arises between them. From this state onward, we can already talk about creation and the Creator, about desire and its fulfillment. This is practically the entire wisdom of Kabbalah, which studies how the creation receives fulfillment from the light and how it regulates the filling with the light inside itself.

Comment: When you explain something, the same message always comes from you, but its presentation is different all the time. From the outside it looks like you are changing your mind and contradicting yourself.
My Response: What can I do?! My teaching is designed for serious people, let’s say people who study physics, especially those associated with such breakthroughs in science as the collider where they are looking for the Higgs boson and so on. Their discoveries can take them in one direction when they solve, say, the mystery of gravitation, or they can be taken in a completely different direction. They are in the middle and do not know what to do. This is how we live because we attain everything in comparison.
Matter always consists of two opposite elements, plus and minus, which gradually expand and connect with each other. The more complex matter is, the more contradictory, opposite are the elements it consists of that connect and complement each other. All of it is built on a contradiction.
If some people cannot comprehend it, what can I do?! They want to live like some kitten and nothing else: this is my mom, my bowl, and a box of sand.

The difference between past, present, and future is only in the strength of our connection. If we connect, we compress time and jump into the future.
In fact, there is no time! It is only according to our inner effort to unite that we reveal our more corrected states. This means that we exist in time.

Question: Do I understand correctly that if the upper Malchut is not revealed at least to some extent, we have no opportunity to serve the Creator?
Answer: We have the opportunity to turn to the Creator and ask Him; this always works. The Creator is open to everyone and awaits for an appeal from each of us. The only thing is that we must be very consistent in this: ask, appeal, raise our offers, and requests all the time. And then, in relation to this, we will feel the attitude of the Creator toward us.
Question: Is serving the Creator a certain action? Can I ask and the Creator will do something through me?
Answer: Yes, the Creator will consistently carry out His attitude to others through you.
Question: And what does it mean to serve the Creator in a group?
Answer: First of all, it is the connection between you growing stronger and stronger until you merge into one common desire, and then you will discover the Creator in this desire.

Question: The Creator gives us gifts all the time. He created the evil inclination to shade Himself, gave us a method so that we would feel how to approach Him. Now He is ready to give us the quality of bestowal. How can we learn to appreciate these gifts, recognize them, learn from them, and be grateful?
Answer: We should try to connect with each other so that there are no contradictions or disturbances between us that would prevent us from relating to the Creator with one feeling, with one heart.
Try to adjust yourself so that everyone has one single desire of the heart, and by turning it to the Creator, you will begin to feel the manifestation of the Creator to you in this desire.
Question: Is this a test that we have become closer to the Creator?
Answer: This is not just a test but an action.

Question: There is a place called “the love of the friends for me” and there is a place called “my love for the friends.” Are these different things?
Answer: Absolutely different. The love of the friends for me is manifested in their desire. “My love for my friends” is in my desire.
But the Creator reveals himself in both places: in my desire for the friends and in the desire of the friends for me.
Question: I suffer that I cannot bestow and bring contentment to my friends, and at the same time I rejoice that the Creator wants and can do it. I want to become an intermediary between the Creator and my friends in order to bring contentment to them. Is this the right desire, and how to come to it?
Answer: Everyone should be in such a state. And then everyone will unite with the Creator and with his friends to be a link between the whole group, everyone in the group, and the Creator. So, that is very good.
Question: How can you give to the group and not see the benefit for yourself?
Answer: With one’s heart. Try to include your friends in your heart and also enter into their hearts. And in this common mutual heart, you will always approach each other until you feel the Creator, that you are in Him and He is in you.
