The Question of Overcoming

938.07Question: It is written that we should always be in overcoming. Then there is a question whether my path is correct when I work with a group, with a ten, and all of a sudden I feel pleasure and enjoyment. Does it mean that I am making a mistake and that on the contrary, I have to find paths where I have to overcome something? Is this correct?

Answer: It is correct if you feel that you constantly want to be fulfilled with the light of the Creator to a greater degree. At the same time, you will be in connection with your friends because they give you strength and their volume that you can fulfill like a conductor of the light from the Creator to them. In this way everyone will rise.

Question: Then what do I overcome?

Answer: You overcome your egoism that pulls you down.

The Mighty Hand of the Creator

938.05Why He has made the work of bestowal so hard was that He wanted the mighty hand to be revealed, as it is written, “for with a mighty hand he will send them, and with a mighty hand he will drive them out of his land” (RABASH, Article 14, “The Connection between Passover, Matza, and Maror“).

Question: What does it mean the Creator wanted to reveal a mighty hand?

Answer: The Creator gives us a certain power that distances us from Him, from the quality of bestowal, and similarity to the Creator, and we are in a state where we cannot do anything.

Once we slowly accumulate the forces of resistance, we each begin to work against them all. That is, I am in a certain ten—this is a must—and in it I must manifest myself as a bestower and gather everyone into one force.

Then, being in such a ten, we can strive to get closer to the Creator.

Not Only on the Battlefield

938.02Question: When we sing and dance as Rabash did, is that also a war against the evil inclination?

Answer: Of course, but it depends on what you are thinking about, why you are dancing, whether your heart wants to include all your friends.

In other words, clarify what force is born in this dance, in the embrace with your friends, what is it that you want to achieve through it. That is very important.

How Can You Fill Your Friends’ Hisaron?

599.02Question: How do I fill my friends’ Hisaron (deficiency)?

Answer: By helping them, by your actions. Find out what they want and try to be with them in it.

You are a giver because you see what your friend needs and you help him achieve it. That is how it works.

Create a Common Kli

938.02Question: How is our making concessions toward one another in a ten related to a common Hisaron (deficiency) appearing?

Answer: In this way, you want to feel what the other feels, and he does the same toward you. This creates a common Kli.

Each of you tries to unite in the other’s desire to bestow: the first in the second and the second in the first.

Question: When we annul ourselves before our friends, we can receive from them. But what can we give them in this state?

Answer: You unite with them in order to create a common Kli. A friend bestows to me, and I bestow to him to the extent that we can unite.

How Can You Recognize a Spiritual Descent?

509What is meant by a spiritual descent? Sometimes people think that it is a consequence of some corporeal failures like being fired from work or problems in the family.

But in truth, a descent is the feeling of distancing from the Creator, and an ascent is approaching Him. That is how we should understand ascents and descents, and work accordingly.

Distancing from the Creator is felt like not understanding what is required of you, not understanding your state, and suffering from your incorrect connections with other people. The remedy is to rise above reason and connect with the desire for correction embedded in nature, with the force of bestowal and love, so that it begins to rule over you.

An Incredible Difference

938.04Question: Love for one’s neighbor is a great force with which one can overcome everything. Is the condition for its development mutuality? What is mutual love between friends?

Answer: Mutual love between friends exists when they know and understand each other and are united in their aspiration toward one another. Then they achieve unity, adhesion, and attainment.

There is a big difference between each person feeling their own individual place in the spiritual world and them uniting to feel a common place in the spiritual world.

This is an incredible difference! It means that each of them builds an entire world for himself.

In such unity, many in the group connect their desires in such a way that they feel the entire group as one whole.

The Creator Will Not Be Able to Refuse You

213Question: You said that we need to change our nature from reception to bestowal. Does this mean that on every desire to receive that arises in me I need to unite with my friends and bestowal to them?

Answer: I think so.

Question: In this action, when I connect with my friend’s desire and bestow to him, how can I make it so that the Creator acts?

Answer: When you unite with your friend and become as one, then you both turn to the Creator as a single person, and the Creator will no longer be able to refuse you.

Spiritual Battlefield

528.01Question: What should I do if I do not feel my evil inclination or, on the contrary, I feel it, but I do not mind, I enjoy it and want to receive more and more?

Answer: You must conduct your internal analysis. Everything that is in you and pushes you toward the goal of creation is the good inclination. Anything that isolates you from the goal of creation is the evil inclination.

Every time from morning to evening, and in the evening when you finish your day, imagine yourself under the power of the good inclination. This is what you do during the day, this is what you fight.

Question: You said that morning lessons are a battlefield. But in addition to them, during the day we also have workshops in the ten, meetings of friends, and group events. Is this also our battlefield?

Answer: Yes, this is your battlefield. It is not necessary to face the enemy, because you unite with each other so that everyone reveals even greater negative qualities in themselves. This is the battlefield.
