Question: While working within our ten we make great efforts to unite, but when we meet with other tens, the sense of unity is much stronger. There are no barriers, only the power, strength, and unity of thoughts and souls. How can we retain such a gift within our group? Does this mean we are ready for connection with the world Kli?

Answer: Perhaps you are already ready, but it still must be strengthened and developed.

Question: How should our efforts and love for the Creator be properly balanced? Sometimes it seems that one cancels out the other.

Answer: Try to connect everything, and from that place ask the Creator for closeness with Him.

Question: If some are interested in Kabbalah and listen to our materials a bit, but do not have the desire to make an effort to study on their own, should we encourage them? Or should we wait for their Reshimot to be revealed?

Answer: It is always worth encouraging them, even for your own sake.

Question: If the heart reveals not only love for the Creator, but also questions for Him, how can this be corrected quickly?

Answer: Try to ask questions while simultaneously expressing love.

Question: Is the desire to receive for the sake of bestowal the same as love?

Answer: In general it symbolizes a good relationship.

If one makes the labor with the desire to bestow, so he is rewarded with finding. In other words, the Creator gives him Torah and wisdom (Rabash, Notes 545 “Laboring and Finding”).

Question: Is it possible that all the Torah and wisdom are already within us? However, since we are not yet similar to the Creator in our qualities, we do not perceive the Torah as a finding.

Answer: No, a person receives wisdom from the Creator in small portions, which fill him, and he feels it.

Question: It is said that the Torah is a gift to us. But the Creator loves everyone, and gifts are given to loved ones. Why can’t everyone reveal the Torah, but only those with a point in the heart? Why doesn’t everyone understand the Torah?

Answer: Because they cannot rise above their egoism because they are deeply immersed in it. But gradually, they are purified from egoism, and rise higher and higher until they begin to feel that the Creator desires the quality of bestowal from them.

Question: If the ten pray together and receive a response from the Creator, should we say that the ten did the work or that the Creator did a good deed for the ten?

Answer: No, the request comes from below, from the person or the ten, and the Creator responds from above through the ten and perhaps directly to each individual.

Question: In our harsh world, there is a feeling that all of us have hearts of stone.

But we so deeply want to ask the Creator to make these hearts soft, like clay, from which we could sculpt a vessel and connect. What can make our hearts soft, collective, and unified?

Answer: The light of the Creator; if He influences us with His light, we will instantly turn into very soft lumps of clay that are able to unite with one another and we will feel Him within us.

Question: We learn that the most powerful prayer is in the ten. How can I draw the power of the ten into my prayer when I ask for them?

Answer: When you invest in your friends in the ten, they can help you to the same extent. But if you don’t, in a way you separate yourself from them. Then what can you demand?

When you ask for them, you can draw the power of the ten into your prayer only if you have a certain preparation and connection with each other.

Question: How do you understand what you are stealing in spirituality if we have one common Kli there?

Answer: No, besides that, there is a settlement with everyone.

Question: But how to understand that I am stealing now?

Answer: You have to start feeling it.

Question: Is this some effort that I am not putting in?

Answer: No, not necessarily. This is primarily what you can take from others.

Question: It turns out that if I do not have a clear intention to steal from others, then I cannot be said to be stealing?

Answer: It is not that easy. Maybe you want to overtake your friend in this, do something first, and so on.

Question: But that does not stop me from thinking that it is not worth being too active, because in that case I am stealing? Does that not stop you?

Answer: No, this is not true.

Question: Then how do I make the calculation?

Answer: Help your friends.

Question: If I see that there is no love in me and hatred is growing, how can I reach the point where it becomes painful? How can I not take this for granted? How can I cry out because of it?

Answer: You cannot do anything on your own because this is your nature. You are being shown the truth, and not even all of it. What you must do in your prayers, in your requests, to the Creator, is to express your desire for these qualities to leave you.

Question: How can I constantly act together with the Creator? How can I correctly express love? If the Creator hides Himself, is it better to conceal my egoism or, conversely, to manifest love?

Answer: It is better to conceal your egoism and reveal it only to the extent that you wish to show it to the Creator and ask Him to correct it. In other words, strive to be in controlled egoism as much as possible.

Question: When a person prays for their friends and feels pleasure from this process, what is this state? And how can this pleasure be conveyed to the Creator and to others?

Answer: You should thank the Creator for giving you such responses in the form of pleasure and try to learn from Him how to ensure that your actions also bring Him delight.

Question: How can one learn to do this?

Answer: Observe what the Creator does to bring you pleasure, then do the same for Him with the hope that He will be delighted.

Question: We can experience the Shechina in the dust through our relationships with others, especially when there is some sense of detachment from them. This can be felt as both a punishment and a reward. What is the reward? How does the Creator help people by giving them the sensation of dust?

Answer: The reward is that a person is brought closer to even greater darkness. They enter a deeper state of insignificance, worthlessness, and inability to act, which leads them to the point where all they can do is cry out to the Creator. But it is precisely this cry that liberates them from the captivity of egoism.

Question: Is there any way to avoid the taste of dust in the work of bestowal?

Answer: No, there is not.

Question: If the Creator is good and desires to give us pleasure, yet His name, being devoid of pleasure, has a Hisaron under restriction, how can they be that they are one? Even if I am to the Beloved, and He is to me, they still have opposition.

Answer: No, in absolute value, this is not an opposite, but complete equality.

His name is bestowal. I value Him because I receive from Him and I relate to Him in the same way. That is, we both bestow to each other. The Creator gives a person the light of fulfillment, the light of joy, the light of knowledge. And a person gives the Creator for the opportunity to help him, fill him, and bring him closer to the Creator.

Question: If we pronounce the names of the Creator, does this mean we lack precisely these properties?

Answer: No, you just try to call Him by different names in which you feel His manifestation.

Question: Are the negative names we use to refer to the Creator that originate from egoism still considered His names?

Answer: Negative names have nothing to do with the Creator. They proceed only because a person does not find the correct image of the Creator and, therefore names the Creator with words opposite to His properties.

Question: What can you advise a person who has just joined our system? What should he pray for?

Answer: He still cannot pray. He does not feel what, why, and to whom. One does not have any components of genuine prayer.

Therefore, there is no need to demand anything from him. Let him listen. Let him be present. The surrounding light will gradually affect him, and he will improve. Therefore, the only advice is to develop an awareness of the importance of the environment.
