Question: Is “faith above reason” always some kind of deficiency in the mind and feelings that I need to compensate for? Or is it preferable to remain in the sensation of the Creator despite opposing feelings?

Answer: If you feel that you have faith above reason and it fills you, then you have nothing more to worry about. You should focus only on how to thank the Creator.

Question: Can we consider failure as success, the meaning of which we will understand later?

Answer: No, we must still act, and in these actions feel the Creator’s attitude toward us.

Question: How can one maintain focus on building spiritual Hisaron (lack) in any state and patiently await joy from it within the ten?

Answer: This must be your constant effort. Then you will see what else can be derived from uniting with friends or what to request from the Creator or the group in order to always remain in the correct intention.

Question: How can one strengthen faith that the Creator is good and does good?

Answer: Strive to be like Him.

Question: We are trying to conceal our desire to receive in order to connect with our friends in the ten. How can we achieve revelation in our work with the help of the screen?

Answer: I want to receive the upper light on my egoism, which, by elevating me above the ego, will help me connect with my friends and, from our connection, turn to the Creator.

The essence of the screen is that with its help I work with my egoism and transform it into the quality of bestowal in order to connect with my friends and with the Creator. In response, the Creator gives us the strength to accomplish this.

Question: Are mutual incorporation and unity the same property?

Answer: They are the same property.

Question: Will the world reach a state where the desire to be mutually incorporated awakens in it?

Answer: It must, of course. The whole development of the world is moving toward compelling us to come closer.

We influence humanity with our desire to rise above our own qualities because we see how these qualities jeopardize the attainment of the ultimate goal.

Question: Will people be happy when they feel that mutual incorporation brings them the joy of life?

Answer: The connection between us ensures exactly this; it grants us ease and a sense of elevation.

Question: What does “he should take a wife specifically from his family” mean in spirituality?

Answer: It refers to the connection between souls—closer and more distant ones. Our forefathers and foremothers were, in a sense, relatives. This is written about in the Torah.

From a spiritual perspective, a “wife” represents a person’s connection with the Creator, which helps them reveal the upper.

Question: Am I correct in understanding that we must have a desire to receive for the sake of bestowal? Is that what “from his family” means?

Answer: Yes, any reception must be for the sake of bestowal. It develops from our soul.

Help your friends with what they need, and you will see that in doing so, your own desire to receive for yourself will fade.

Question: What is joy for the sake of the Creator?

Answer: We need to imagine what the Creator wants from us and what states He expects, then we can tell whether or not we give Him pleasure with our states.

We can feel our attitude toward the Creator, His attitude toward us, and at the same time advance.
We keep asking Him not to forget us and to include us in His work.

When we turn to the Creator, we should have joy from striving to connect with Him; this feeling fills us.

Every time, we should bless Him for the opportunity to feel even a little spirituality, a little of ourselves and others, and distinguish between approaching the Creator or moving away from Him. This is very important for us.

Question: We have love for the Creator. How can we put it into practice? How can we search for what each friend is lacking in order to understand how I can fulfill them?

Answer: Ask, demand. The Creator will explain to you. He will show you what needs to be done so that you can fulfill Him.

Question: What does a lack of spirituality in the ten mean? How can it be felt?

Answer: It means that the ten is not working on raising the greatness of spirituality within themselves.

Question: On one hand we want free choice, but on the other hand we come to “there is none else besides Him.” Should the prayer be the same in both states?

Answer: No, the prayer can be anything, any words, any feelings. It does not matter.

Question: When can we press the Creator more: during an ascent or in the feeling of a descent?

Answer: In the feeling of a descent.

Question: When you feel the suffering of the nations of the world, the only consolation and joy is that everything comes from the Creator. But this sounds somewhat egoistic since I know there is none else besides Him, while the nations of the world do not know this. How can I convey this feeling to them?

Answer: Convey it in any way possible: write articles, compose songs, sing. Do whatever you can to help them realize this.

Question: How can we work correctly with the desire to receive in order to fight the evil inclination in the best possible way?

Answer: We must pray and ask the Creator to give us a desire to receive that we can use for the sake of giving to Him. That is, everything that comes from the Creator, we accept, receive, and bless Him for what He has done for us.

Question: What should we do with the sadness that comes when one does not receive fulfillment for all his desires?

Answer: This means he is incorrectly connected with his friends and the Creator.

The correct connection is wanting to receive from the Creator only with the intention to bestowal. And the more he receives, the higher he raises his receiving Kli, and the more he gives.

Question: How does the body learn the qualities of the wise? How can we help this happen?

Answer: We help the body by trying to unite and to raise a collective prayer. This is how we attract the upper light that corrects us.

Question: Can we assume that a small self-annulment gives us the strength for the subsequent slightly larger annulment?

Answer: Yes, it always happens that way. Therefore we never stop, but we constantly clarify even the slightest problems.

Question: How do we rise above mind and reason to learn the quality of the wise?

Answer: Only together through a collective prayer to the Creator.
