Forward All the Time

275Question: The more we study, the bigger our ego becomes. Should we have control over the ego and recognition of it?

Answer: No, we don’t have control over the ego, but we can have recognition of it.

What should we do? Keep moving forward, always asking the Creator for unity and connection with our friends. In this way, through our unity, we will reveal our collective ego and finally ask the Creator correctly to correct it.

Question: How can we avoid fearing the loss of what we already have? By understanding the voice of egoism, how can we still serve the Creator?

Answer: You should tell everything to the Creator, and then you will receive answers from Him. Based on these answers, you will gradually change, and everything will fall into place.

Question: So, should we hold on to the Creator and try to detach from egoism?

Answer: You can try to detach on your own, but it won’t really help. The Creator does this as well. The most important thing is to annul yourself before the Creator. And to annul yourself before Him, you must first annul yourself before your friends. Then everything will work out.

When you ask the Creator to connect you, to the extent He does so, you will feel how close you are to each other, and this is how you will move forward.

Through Internal Connection

938.03Question: At a convention, we will not always have the technical ability to be with our ten. It feels like we have to maintain an internal connection. How can we internally maintain this point of unity?

Answer: I do not think that we will always gather in the form we are doing today.

After all, you will not gather the ten that you will gather at the convention today every time, because next time others will come, and then others. Therefore we need to do something so that all this does not fall apart. I do not know how much it helps that we hold conventions. Maybe it does the opposite.

The thing is that people are used to working in their place, from their city, from their country. And here, everyone is mixing. Once upon a time, many years ago, this was good. And now we need to think carefully about what to do with conventions in the future.

Question: We are now virtually connected with our ten. What am I adding to the fact that now, while here, I want the friends in my ten to advance toward the Creator?

Answer: You transmit all this through your internal connection between hearts.

The Goal of the Convention

962.3Question: Is the goal of the convention to reveal Malchut in our unity?

Answer: Yes, this will give us the beginning of the revelation of the common Kli. It does not matter what the action is: reception for the sake of bestowal or bestowal for the sake of bestowal. In both cases, we work with the full Malchut but at different levels of intensity.

A Fateful Decision

931.01Question: How can we perceive the convention as a positive blow, so that we can accept the Creator’s control for life, and not just for the duration of the convention?

Answer: It all depends on our attitude to it. On the eve of the convention, I must feel myself standing before the most important task in my life, and now my fate is being decided, when I can rise to the upper degree of the spiritual ladder, or I can remain as I am now, or even fall somewhere. This is before us today. Choose!

Question: How exactly can we concentrate, not spread out, and be sure that we can consolidate and prepare ourselves?

Answer: If you begin to gather together as if in a spiritual space, then you will feel a huge common Kli where you are close and understand each other, and the Creator reacts to this in a very serious way.

Question: You said that a person cannot advance without blows, but one can prepare himself so as not to feel the states he goes through as blows. Now, on the eve of the convention, are we not expecting blows?

Answer: No, you must be prepared for blows in order to move forward. The only difference is how you expect it, and in accordance with your desire you will feel it as support, a push forward. But if it is against your desire, then you will feel it as an obstacle.

Question: What can that blow give us at the convention that will allow us to accept something new for ourselves as the control of the Creator?

Answer: If we feel ourselves connected together into one whole, then our common desire will push us out of egoism, and we will rise to the next degree.

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.

Feel an Ascent at the Convention

934Question: What can each ten do before the convention so that everyone feels only ascent during the convention?

Answer: To achieve this, the ten must first unite and arrive at the convention in this united state. Since there will be many such tens at the convention, you will be able to receive a lot of light that will correct you, and after the convention, you will feel how much you have risen.

Integrate with Everyone

942Question: I am coming to the convention where there will be a lot of different people. What does it mean to integrate with everyone at the convention based on the corrected form of my ten?

Answer: You integrate into your ten just as all its other members do, and in this state, you come to the convention.

During the convention, each participating ten maintains its own structure while being ready to connect with other tens without breaking their internal unity. In this way you will see how you all unite and what happens to you as a result.

The Meaning of Congresses

947We have already reached a state where everyone feels that we, the inhabitants of the Earth, are at a dead end. Nature deliberately drives us into a corner so that we can find a way out of it. The Earth’s population is considering how to get out of this descent, impasse, and crisis.

And we recognize the crisis as the moment of the birth of a new state. That is how the word “crisis” is translated from Hebrew. The crisis is a place made of special stones on which a woman sits and gives birth. You understand how interesting and confusing all this is.

It is explained to us that this is our moment, our time. It means that we have gathered at a time when we are about to give birth to an entirely new state of humanity.

Therefore, we need to organize a ten that will implement this, demonstrate it, and be able to lead everyone. As soon as a higher illumination appears in us, earthly people, all of humanity, will follow us automatically, like children following an adult. To do this, we need to unite correctly so that the light begins to manifest itself in us.

That is the meaning of congresses. We must think of the light manifesting itself in us to lead humanity forward and, on the other hand, to bring pleasure to the Creator. And we are in the middle, fulfilling our role. We do not need anything else. We are like an adapter, a connecting link, between all humanity and the Creator. And humanity needs it.
