Toward a Single Goal

938.01Question: What quality of connection should be in the ten in each state so that it corresponds to the revelation of the Creator?

Answer: The most important and correct thing is to unite everyone with everyone and all together.

Question: How do you learn to connect your thoughts and desires with the ten in a strong bond so that there is only one goal: to bring contentment to the Creator?

Answer: To do this, you must get out of yourself, incorporate yourself into your friends, and strive toward the Creator.

That is when all your efforts will lead you to a common goal and common unity.

“Gathering Sheaves”

631.4Omer comes from the words “gathering sheaves,” which means connection.

The world is called “the six days of action and Shabbat [Sabbath],” which are seven Sefirot, and there is Hitkalelut [incorporation] of the Sefirot. Therefore, we must connect ourselves to the Creator on all the days of the years of our lives, which are seventy years, implying that each year comprises ten Sefirot. Rabash, Notes 938 “Concerning the Omer [Count]”

“Gathering sheaves” means to connect with each other so as to be in one bundle. Then we will be able to feel the attitude of the Creator toward us in this bundle (sheaf).

We all desire to reach one goal, and therefore we must strive only for it so that all our desires connect together. But it is the Creator who does this because we are not able to do it ourselves.

Question: How can we connect with the Creator in such a way as to acquire the quality of a certain Sefira from this sheaf?

Answer: It depends on the soul of each of us, on the desire of each person. For example, in striving to meet the Creator I attain Him in one way, and you follow your own path and attain Him in another way. But overall, each of us attains the root of our own soul.

Question: But the qualities in this sheaf, these Sefirot, are they still common?

Answer: Each person has their own.

Question: How can I reach a certain quality from the seven Sefirot as a result of connecting our different qualities?

Answer: You should only strive for connection, and what will result from it, what will be revealed to you from your connection with the Creator, you will see for yourself.

Why Is the Torah Given to The People of Israel?

933Question: Why were the people of Israel granted the Torah by the Creator?

Answer: Initially, the people of Israel are the most egoistic of all the nations of the world. They may not feel this, but by their internal nature, they are exactly that.

Therefore, they needed the Torah to correct themselves. Without the Torah, this is impossible to achieve. Thus, the people of Israel must come to correction first and thereby show the way to the rest of the nations of the world.

So that Connection Will Not Disappear

938.05Question: How can we bind ourselves to the Creator so that we won’t  break away from Him, at least for a long time?

Answer: When you are connected to each other and at the same time with the Creator, and you constantly monitor this connection so that it does not decrease in any case but only increases, then gradually you will form a permanent connection with the Creator.

Question: What does it mean to monitor this connection?

Answer: Make sure that it does not disappear anywhere.

Absolute Devotion

527.03“And it is time of trouble for Jacob, but he will be saved from it,” for all the salvations are regarded as Anochi (Rabash, Letter No. 3).

Question: What does it mean that all the salvations are regarded as Anochi? After all, we study that we must rise above the ego in order to reach the quality of bestowal, to some kind of salvation.

Answer: Salvation occurs when the creation is absolutely devoted to the Creator. This is the reason for salvation.

Absolute devotion to the Creator is the adhesion of creation with the Creator without any conditions.

Question: Can we come to this devotion from any state?

Answer: From the states that are given to you, you will come to it.

Invest Efforts Correctly

524.01Question: When attempting to implement bestowal to friends, sometimes we reveal a discrepancy. It turns out that we try to give the wrong thing, in the wrong way, or at the wrong time. How should we properly correct such situations?

Answer: When we intend to help someone or give something back to them, we focus only on our intentions.

Therefore, we cannot precisely measure who has a greater or lesser intention. We should try to do everything within our power.

Question: We try to work for the sake of bestowal, but when we make some decisions, not everyone immediately joins in. There are active friends and less active ones. Is it right to show initiative or should we wait until others join in?

Answer: You should show initiative and pull the less active ones along by your example, effort, and in any way possible.

Let’s Make Room for the Creator in Our Hearts

942How can we feel deeply in our hearts that we need to ask the Creator to help us unite to come to love for our friends and reach the purpose of creation, to reveal the Creator?

To do this, we need to make room in our hearts, understand that this heart is empty and wants to be filled with such requests. Then we will awaken the heart, which will have only one request left: that it lacks the Creator. And we will very much want to feel how He fills our hearts.

I hope that we are approaching this state. Among us, there are people who already feel how the Creator is beginning to fill each person’s heart. We need to focus even more on this. The main thing is to just ask, to beg, as much as possible, and not stop, not despair. The Creator is ready to fill our hearts, and this will definitely happen.

Let’s go through this day all together in one heart, in a common hope that the Creator will come closer and fill our hearts.

First of all, we need to receive the light of faith from the Creator. It should fill all the space in a person’s heart and let us feel this light of faith coming to us from the Creator.

What is required on our part is the desire to attain faith. Then, to the extent of this desire, this feeling of lack, we will receive this light that will fill our hearts from the Creator. This is the very first action we need to take.

Then in the light of faith, which to some extent fills our hearts, we need to continue further. The more we lack the light of faith, the greater our ability to receive fulfillment that can turn into a new feeling of lack.

Faith can only be increased by strengthening our request, by striving for it, discussing, clarifying it more deeply, and then our desire grows.

To Perfection

938.04Question: In order to achieve perfection in life, we must correct sins through connection. How can we keep the unity in connection so that the light of correction would work with us?

Answer: We just have to constantly think about how we can achieve greater unity between us and figure out how we can get even closer. You will see how it will work.

Question: Will the transition from a broken state to a corrected one be immediately felt?

Answer: Relatively quickly.

Question: How can we use the corrected state properly?

Answer: You will then see what grows out of it.

Perfection in Spiritual Life

282.02Comment: It is said that when Israel receives a hundred, it immediately wants two hundred.

My Response: One who wants a hundred, has two hundred opened up to him. This indicates that a person is developing. Everyone who is greater than one’s friend, his Hisaron (deficiency) is greater.

Question: What is perfection in spiritual life?

Answer: Perfection is achieved by the fact that from deficiencies that develop in me, I am constantly trying to form the quality of bestowal instead of reception. It is not that I seek to destroy the desire to receive, to level it. No!

Instead of all the desires that arise in me, I want to find only one great spiritual desire. And that is how I am going to move forward.
