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.

Very often we ask ourselves: What does the Creator respond to? The Creator responds to everything directed toward common correction, toward the purpose He expects from all of creation. Therefore, a true prayer is a prayer for connection.

Of course, everything else is also necessary, but it should be used as needed to ensure our requests are not overly egoistic.

The best way to turn to the Creator is when I pray for my friends. That is perceived absolutely clearly and aligns perfectly with His field, and thus, a connection between Him and me appears. This connection may not yet be obvious or tangible, but it is already a form of interaction.

Question: We clearly realize that all our actions are performed from a state of Lo Lishma, and this leads us to the recognition of our own evil. Should we accompany this process with joy, knowing that we are making efforts in the work for the Creator?

Answer: A person goes through several stages in the attitude toward the nature of reception and the nature of bestowal. We need to strive to understand where we are. Of course, this is concealed from us, but gradually we can develop a feeling of it.

When performing certain actions, you must clearly understand for whom, for what purpose, and why you are doing them. Gradually, you will develop an accurate awareness of your actions, whether you are moving forward and progressing or not.

In general, we must reach a state where almost everything we do is not for ourselves, but for the Creator.

This gradual accumulation of our efforts, intentions, requests, and qualities happens, and shifts our egoism toward them and allows us to act for the Creator. That is the work of Lishma.

The world has entered a state where it is beginning to destabilize itself because it needs to ascend to the next degree. Its highest degree is called “Adam” (man) since all of nature is divided into four levels: inanimate, vegetative, animate, and human.

We are approaching 6,000 years, the end of human history. We think that the Earth is spinning and will continue to spin. No, the Earth will not spin forever, because the world is merely our perception of ourselves and our surroundings. In and of itself, it does not exist. Without us, there is no world. This entire reality exists in our imagination.

We must understand that the time has come for us to transition from this reality to its next level, the spiritual one. That is, we must move from a world that exists based on the methodology of connecting egoistic forces to a world that exists according to the methodology of the quality of bestowal.

This transition is achieved only through the connection of people when we strive to come closer to one another and ask the Creator to give us the force of unity. But we must feel the need for it; that is, we need to create such a negative potential within the group, such a need for this force, that the Creator is truly revealed between us, and the force of unity begins to govern us. Then, through us, as the head of the Partzuf, this force will flow to all other parts of humanity.
