Question: Usually a lot of people who just show interest in Kabbalah come to the congresses. You said that we have to reach such power that it is sufficient for everyone. This is an unbearable feeling of responsibility. Do we need to include a request for these people in our prayer for our friends?

Answer: We are obliged to consider everyone as our friends, everyone in the world who is with us in any form of unification: via the Internet, by telephone, it does not matter. They are all, in general, our friends, they all participate in some way in our striving forward, no matter what level each is at.

We have to think about them. We are pioneers, the forward-looking group. Therefore, we have to act this way.

Comment: When I pray for my friends, I periodically forget to include everyone else in my prayer, then it seems that my prayer is incomplete.

My Response: All this, of course, is formal. We do not need to pay individual attention to new people, we should automatically include them within ourselves and continue our spiritual work. For now, you cannot yet care for these friends to be with you. But it is necessary to be reminded about this.

Habit is second nature, you will gradually get used to thinking about them. And not only thinking, but genuinely empathizing and raising MAN together with them. You will feel that they are inside you.

Question: And what should we do with the feeling of responsibility that presses on us that we will not have enough power for everyone?

Answer: It is very good that you feel such pressure. It is wonderful! Be afraid! This is the best thing I can wish for you.

Be afraid, worry, suffer. All these are necessary feelings that push you to think about unity and to direct it correctly to the Creator.

Question: So, be afraid and pray?

Answer: Certainly. Without fear, there is nothing at all. Fear is the most correct, natural feeling of our empty desire. I am very glad that you feel this way. I wish this feeling for everyone.

Question: At conventions we usually gather in random tens. What is the path that I should I take with it? What should I strive for?

Answer: To annul yourself in order to connect with the ten in one integral, small system where each of us practically disappears and we feel something common: integrality, mutual complementing of everyone in everything.

Sometimes we go from the perspective that we need to bestow to the Creator, and for this, we must connect. Or we can take another path: first think about the friends, not to mention the fact that this is necessary for establishing contact with the Creator. Both ways are valid. This is called “commandments between people and the Creator.”

At congresses, we get together with all our might and renew our spiritual movement toward each other. We try to find out how we can get closer, feel another, completely incomprehensible, unknown person, and establish a contact with him that will be influenced by the upper force.

We can achieve much more at a congress than in my regular ten. I can be very connected to my own ten, but when I join a random ten, we have no past. I sit with people I have never worked with spiritually. That makes it easier for me.

I can wholeheartedly open myself to connection with them without any past superficial impressions. We must try to do this. In spiritual things this is how it should be, and even with your old ten, you can be completely open.

In such cases, it is our egoism that allows us to be more open and closer to each other. I will not have that ten tomorrow, nor did I have it yesterday, so I am in such an open state with them.

Think about it. Overall there are many opportunities at congresses. You can do it if you look for ways to feel your soul merge with a random ten.

If you have no complaints about them, no memories, no promises for the future, this is what always happens in spirituality. Every minute in spirituality you are in a completely new state. Every person is new at every moment. So you owe absolutely nothing to anyone except instant unification with each other and the Creator.

Question: Now all the friends from my ten have been distributed between different tens. What should I focus on: my ten or the one I am placed in?

Answer: It does not matter. You do not have to stay in your ten. Instead, try connecting with strangers.

They are all similar to you. They have the same states, goals, and understanding that they must nullify themselves and be connected with others in agreement and mutual guarantee.

Therefore it makes no sense for you to be associated with those you know in this world purely physically, externally, or psychologically. You should enter into the same spiritual contact with strangers.

Let’s say I am sitting at the end of the table with five to six people around me. I will discuss some issues and have a workshop with them; that is a ten for me. If I connect with it now, I can already reach the Creator.

In the next lesson, I will be with another ten, a third, and a fourth. Thus, I always look for ways to connect to the Creator.

On the contrary, it is terrific if you act this way. It will teach you how to grasp any state to cling to the Creator through it.

Question: Congress is a state where we can really feel each friend, his spark and charge. What is missing in this state to feel it as ten Sefirot, as direct and reflected light?

Answer: Direct and reflected light express only the relationship between us.

As soon as a relationship of “I am to a friend and he is to me” arises between us and so between everyone in the ten, we immediately form a state where we feel bestowal from us toward the Creator and from the Creator toward us.

Then we enter a completely different level of creation and begin to understand what is happening in this world and in the upper world. This world will become an upper world. We will begin to feel that everything works differently there.

It should happen. From the way I speak, I can see how easily I can convey information to you. This is a sign that you are ready. So go ahead.

Question: Is my task to serve the ten and create the conditions for all the nine friends to unite?

Answer: By doing this you are serving yourself, and not them. Your egoism seems to tell you that you are you, and they are them. In reality, they are the spiritual “you.”

Question: I understand that all my actions regarding the ten come from the mind, from pure calculation, and not from the heart. How can I learn to ask for strength from the ten to move on?

Answer: First of all, asking is good. On the other hand, you must understand that gradually from your efforts you will develop all kinds of feelings, thoughts, and connection with them. You will begin to understand how to quickly create contact with them, and you will become a master of your craft.

Suppose, when you start working with some kind of material or some unknown construct, you do not understand much. But gradually you get a feeling of what you are working with, what it really is.

In the same way, we do not yet have an understanding or feeling of what a ten is. And when you start working with one group, another one, and still another one, trying to gradually connect to them, a structure of this object will begin to get created inside you. In this way, you will begin to feel within yourself what a spiritual Kli is.

You will have a grasp, an understanding, of how the ten changes. Therefore, try to be in different tens all the time. The main thing is to begin to connect. Anyway, all of us, all of humanity are one big ten. So there is no problem being in different states.

Question: What does it mean to get together with another ten? There is some confusion here, and it is unclear where to move.

Answer: What’s the difference. The main thing is that this is a group of people to whom you want to nullify. You don’t need to know them much to do this. They also have the same intentions, movements, and plans as you. So try it.

Then you will begin to feel that you and they have movement toward unification, and you will start to unite your intentions, thoughts, and desires, which will collect in you. You will divide them into receiving, bestowing, intentions, and actions. And so everything will go further. You know, just like in relationships between people, you will have such connections.

And it doesn’t matter that the ten will be new every time. On the contrary, it is good. You can achieve a lot if you work hard on yourself.

Question: What conditions and forces are needed to achieve self-annulment?

Answer: No conditions except desire. Any person who feels such internal pressure within himself can achieve this, and he does not need anything for this, only those properties in it and the group in front of it.

If it is said that “There is none else besides the Creator,” then how can a person act independently? The only action of a person is that from time to time he feels and attains more and more that there is no one else besides the Creator, there is no other force in the world that can give and do something—only Him.

You should not neglect any states, but rather, you need to connect them all together into a single desire, a special decision, into one collective Kli (vessel). Then we will see that this Kli has a unique form in which the Creator, the ultimate purpose of creation, is revealed, and we all become included in it.

The concept of time is important here. A person needs to try to always be connected to what is felt in the heart and to let this feeling lead him to the goal, to connection above reason, against the arguments of reason. But he still keeps going and gradually begins to understand what is required of him and how he should prepare himself to reach a state that is called spiritual, above reason.

A miracle happens, and a person begins to reveal their first connection with the Creator. They feel that they have now reached a special spiritual state where the contact with the upper force is revealed to them.

A person does not know in advance that this will happen, but one continues to strive toward the Creator for a long time and desires to reveal a connection with Him. It is called a miracle because it comes suddenly, without any apparent signs of approaching, and reveals itself suddenly like a gift.

A person is required to make efforts toward this revelation, but in doing so, they see no connection between their requests and what they receive in their understanding and feeling at the moment of the revelation of truth.

How can we feel deeply in our hearts that we need to ask the Creator to help us unite to come to love for our friends and reach the purpose of creation, to reveal the Creator?

To do this, we need to make room in our hearts, understand that this heart is empty and wants to be filled with such requests. Then we will awaken the heart, which will have only one request left: that it lacks the Creator. And we will very much want to feel how He fills our hearts.

I hope that we are approaching this state. Among us, there are people who already feel how the Creator is beginning to fill each person’s heart. We need to focus even more on this. The main thing is to just ask, to beg, as much as possible, and not stop, not despair. The Creator is ready to fill our hearts, and this will definitely happen.

Let’s go through this day all together in one heart, in a common hope that the Creator will come closer and fill our hearts.

First of all, we need to receive the light of faith from the Creator. It should fill all the space in a person’s heart and let us feel this light of faith coming to us from the Creator.

What is required on our part is the desire to attain faith. Then, to the extent of this desire, this feeling of lack, we will receive this light that will fill our hearts from the Creator. This is the very first action we need to take.

Then in the light of faith, which to some extent fills our hearts, we need to continue further. The more we lack the light of faith, the greater our ability to receive fulfillment that can turn into a new feeling of lack.

Faith can only be increased by strengthening our request, by striving for it, discussing, clarifying it more deeply, and then our desire grows.
