Question: How does connection between souls feel?

Answer: The connection between souls is felt in the unification of all aspirations upward, toward a goal that can only be achieved through our connection, not individually.

Alone, I will always remain with only the single point in the heart that is given to me at the beginning of the journey. It is like a drop of semen; it remains as the foundation of a person, and everything else is just “flesh” that must be added to it. But within this drop lies all the information about a person.

This point in the heart exists above my ego, which I have despaired of fulfilling in this world. It pulls me upward, yet it will always remain just a point.

It cannot grow; instead I connect it with the other such points in the hearts of my friends. When these points come together to form a single vessel of the soul, I begin to feel the upper light within it—not in each of us individually, but in the connection between us, in our relationships, in the unity.

Each of us is a desire. If I act with a desire to bestow to another and they act with a desire to bestow to me, the connection between us reveals an inner light. It is akin to intra-atomic bonds.

There are two desires. On one hand egoism pushes people apart and makes them unwilling to unite with one another.

On the other hand, above the egoism, they draw closer, and strive to connect their points in the heart. The repelling force of egoism is negative, while the attracting force of the points in the heart is positive.

If the positive force exceeds the negative, connection occurs. The strength of this connection is determined by the immense power of mutual egoism acting as a minus.

However, by transforming it into a plus through uniting above it, we use it as resistance, as a resistor, a place where the force of bestowal, the Creator, can be revealed.

And then He is revealed between us within the former egoism that is now governed by the intention to unite! It is like a field surrounding a charged particle.

Thus, the Creator is revealed to creation—in the connection between souls, not within an individual soul.

Question: Do we feel contact with the Creator the same way internally and externally?

Answer: I cannot divide it into internal and external contact. Connection with the Creator is felt in the depths of a person’s heart. That is where we must seek Him.

The most important thing is to feel connection with Him in the heart. He is constantly working on this. Do not spare your heart from the effort to direct it toward the Creator. On the contrary, the more you direct your heart toward Him, the more it will grow, become bigger, and encompass many states.

Question: How is the force of 600,000 souls revealed in the ten?

Answer: The force of 600,000 souls is revealed simply as fulfillment. For it to be revealed within us, the collective strength of the mass of souls is needed, literally their weight.

Question: What should a person feel when receiving a well-deserved gift from the Creator?

Answer: When a person receives what he is entitled to according to the line of connection from the Creator that he has built between himself and the Creator, he will feel guidance within this line about how to act correctly in order to expand the connection between them, to make it broader in range. In this way one enters a state of shared participation in the Creator’s influence on him.

Question: Is this connection mutual love?

Answer: It is not yet mutual love, but it is the beginning of inner connection.

The Creator says about this, “My sons have defeated Me.” That is, I gave you the will to receive, and you ask Me to give you a desire to bestow instead (Baal HaSulam, Shamati, 19, “What Is ‘The Creator Hates the Bodies’ in the Work?“).

The Creator created a tremendous desire to receive in us, and we are trying to realize this desire in the opposite form: not as receivers, but as givers, like the Creator. Therefore we ask the Creator to help us change our state from receiving to bestowing.

Question: If we have already recognized that the desire to receive is bad and bestowal is good, then how do we defeat the Creator? Is it by turning to Him?

Answer: Yes, in general, this is our victory. As it is written: “My sons have defeated Me.”

Question: During the lesson there is a feeling of great light and goodness emanating from the Creator. There is only acceptance and agreement with it, and a sense of immense gratitude. Is this the moment of bestowal?

Answer: No, this is not bestowal; this is reception. However, you are receiving in those vessels that the Creator has previously blessed.

Question: How can we develop vessels of bestowal? How can we direct ourselves, even slightly, toward bestowal?

Answer: Through love, love and joint work in mutual responsibility.

Question: You have told us that when contact with the Creator happens, I have to give Him everything that I have prepared. What should I prepare for the bestowal to the Creator?

Answer: Do you have any requests, wishes, or pleas for Him?

Comment: Yes.

My Response: This is what you should prepare. Then start asking the Creator precisely about the fulfillment of these wishes.

Question: Can we in the ten accumulate and build this set of pleas?

Answer: Of course you can. Then you can track how your requests change, how the ten is transforming with this, etc.

Question: Is it possible to sense that the Creator has answered us?

Answer: No, don’t be confused. For now just ask and demand an answer from Him.
