Question: When I sit in a lesson with my ten, a lot of unrelated thoughts run through my head. I understand that during the lesson I should pray for my friends to be able to bestow to them. How can I succeed in this?

Answer: First of all, during the lesson, we should initially think about how to help everyone unite. I was brought here by various egoistic goals and rewards. But now that I am here, I should think about how to do what will benefit others, and I do not need any personal gain. My benefit will be only in bestowing to others. Then I will truly exist in the spiritual space.

Question: But what is the process itself? I understand that I need to ask the Creator for my friends. How do I do this? How can I check whether I have asked or not?

Answer: This will manifest in gestures, words, thoughts—in everything within you. If you do it only for others and not for yourself, it is felt. A person kind of floats in the air; at this time, he is considered an angel. An angel is a natural altruistic force.

Question: What should I do with the resistance that increases?

Answer: Work on it. This is how you acquire the screen, meaning you ask the Creator to give you the ability to act correctly.

Comment: But the resistance stops me.

My Response: No, you must ask. Ask and act. Act and ask.

Question: Is it enough to just remember this?

Answer: Try not to leave this state. If you do, return immediately! Meanwhile, ask the Creator not to throw you out of it again. After all, it was He who made you forget and leave the thought about your friends.

Start working, and you will see how a different order of thoughts will gradually form within you; you will begin to exist outside yourself. This will slowly allow you to distance yourself from your “I,” from your egoism.

Question: Are the souls that are here today the same souls from past generations or are they, as it were, new awakenings?

Answer: A soul is a desire aimed at attaining the quality of bestowal, at connecting with others. Each time it is new because it goes through all sorts of changes. So it cannot be said that it is the same soul as before. There is no such thing.

You can rise to the same level that Abraham was on, and then you will literally feel everything that he felt as if you dwell in him. It is not the same soul, but what is called Ibur Neshamot—the impregnation of souls.

Question: When people awaken spiritually, must they necessarily have a Reshimo from a previous state, or is it a new awakening?

Answer: There is nothing new. The Creator created one unified soul called Adam from the word “Domeh (similar), that is, similar to the Creator. Then it shattered into many parts, each of which is a private soul that is in each of us and in general in all people in all generations.

Question: How can you combine exerting effort and working in joy?

Answer: Why can’t there be joy when you make an effort?

Question: It seems that effort is a feeling of some kind of lack, an evil inclination, and you need to work on it.

Answer: You should ask to feel joy too.

Question: So joy should not precede effort?

Answer: As you ask, so it will be.

Question: What should prayer be like? After all, we must ask the Creator not only to take away suffering and, through this, to better connect with Him, but also to correct the shortcomings that caused this suffering.

Answer: No, we only need to think about how to change our relationship toward suffering and where it comes from.

Question: If we pray for help for a suffering friend, is the entire ten undergoing a general correction of our connections?

Answer: Yes, you must join as if immersed in it. Then everyone can give a little strength to reduce the friend’s suffering.

Question: With thoughts and feelings that you are in sadness, trouble, pain, and grief, do we show dissatisfaction with the Creator?

Answer: In general, this is true. You just need to figure out why you are dissatisfied and why the Creator wants to give you such a state. What can you do about it? How do you get out of this state? It is your job.

Question: What is the factor that influences the feeling of the Creator’s answer to prayer?

Answer: It is as much as I am connected am I with my friends and I can connect myself with them to have one united Kli.

Question: I have a feeling that getting closer to the Creator is dangerous because it results in a fear of deep disappointment. At first, the Creator draws you near and you feel close to your friends and to the Creator, but then it becomes very painful when He seemingly pushes you away from Himself. And then you do not want to get close to Him at all. How can this path be evened out?

Answer: Don’t think about yourself; think about pleasing the Creator with your actions.

Question: But that seems unrealistic. If I feel rejected by Him, how can I even think about Him? Should I do it artificially?

Answer: No, not artificially but naturally. Try, and one day it will work out.

Question: Is the Temple our properly built relationship?

Answer: It is our correct common soul that we reveal among ourselves.

Question: What is the basis of this common soul? After all, a building collapses if the foundation is unstable.

Answer: Yes, the same is true in our case. The basis of the common soul is our egoism that we glue and hold in connection with each other because each of us annuls himself before the other.

Question: A person who works in our world group or simply often comes to meetings and days of unity sees more images that are closer to the truth than someone who bothers more about corporeality and sees more false images. Does it turn out that someone who connects more often with friends has an easier path to determining the truth for himself?

Answer: No, in no way is his path easier or faster. In order to reach the spiritual level, one needs to go all out, to do some work. Only in this case will you gain access to some spiritual level, and then to the next one, and so on.

So, it does not matter where you live or who you are connected with. All that matters is your inner need for the sense of truth. You need to constantly direct yourself to ensure that the truth lives in you.

Therefore, you should constantly monitor yourself.

Question: Who can help in a situation when a person cares about corporeality more than he needs and loses this facet of truth?

Answer: No, he will not be allowed to immediately escape from spiritual advancement. There are such “guards” on the path that keep us in spirituality.

Question: What is the difference in the perception of the Creator’s light between various people? Does it depend only on efforts or on some properties the Creator gives?

It seems that some people feel the light without making an effort and some, on the contrary, cannot come to feel it through their efforts.

Answer: The Creator reveals Himself in both ways. Therefore, we need to make efforts, and how the Creator advances us toward Himself is His business. The main thing is to ask Him to draw us toward Himself.

Question: Does the Creator hear our desires or the strength and effort in our desires?

Answer: The Creator hears everything, all our nuances, what we want to receive, what we turn to Him with, etc.

On the negative side, if a part of the nation does not want to keep the Arvut, but to wallow in self-love, they cause the rest of the nation to remain immersed in their filth and lowliness without finding a way out of their filth. Baal HaSulam, Article “The Arvut [Mutual Guarantee]” .

We exist with one another in integral connection, and it creates both positive and negative problems.

The positive component is that we help one another and complement one another. The negative one is that if someone lacks something in the integral group, then everyone suffers.

Therefore, the fact that nature made us integrally connected is good and bad. It is good in the sense that each of us adds to the common Kli, while the bad thing is that when we do not give, we steal from this Kli.

One has to understand that the integral spiritual Kli is very sensitive and reacts to changes of everyone whether positive or negative.
